Chapter 226: Chapter 225: Not Just Anyone Can Touch (27)

Dong Xin Yan’s voice was low, carrying a hint of pleading, yet this kind of plea made Gu Ningyi’s brow furrow deeply. That day Tang Qian had slapped her more than a dozen times, her face was swollen and red, and when he applied medicine for her, she trembled all over in pain, cold sweat pouring down.

Now, had she gone soft-hearted merely because she splashed a few cups of coffee on Tang Qian?

When had Dong Xin Yan ever been such a soft-hearted person? When she fought against him, she never once went soft-hearted, did she?

Dong Xin Yan looked at Gu Ningyi’s expressionless handsome face, her heart empty and uncertain, but she had to fight for it somehow.

Moreover, she also wanted to test Gu Ningyi’s attitude, to see if her unease was indeed overthinking...

Dong Xin Yan unconsciously clenched her hand, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, her voice growing increasingly low, even with a hint of trembling, "I really don’t feel well...."

Previously, everyone watched Tang Qian bully Dong Xin Yan, assuming Dong Xin Yan would seize this opportunity to fiercely take revenge for herself, but unexpectedly, she planned to just let Tang Qian go like this.

Furthermore, she was behaving in a way that betrayed Mr. Gu’s intentions in public, slapping him in the face.

Had her relationship with Gu Ningyi reached the point where she could act spoiled?

Everyone’s gaze involuntarily turned to Gu Ningyi’s handsome face, holding their breath and waiting, waiting to see if Mr. Gu would turn hostile and call her ungrateful or let her have her way.

Gu Ningyi fixedly looked at Dong Xin Yan, sitting on this side of the filming equipment, and though a considerable distance separated them, her expression, her movements, were all vividly imprinted in his dark eyes.

He saw her pretend calmness, her tightly clenched little fists, and... her subtly trembling body.

Just like every time she faced him, always in such a fearful and anxious posture.

Gu Ningyi’s gaze fluctuated with dark light, his thin lips tightly pressed, his face growing increasingly cold.

He came to support her, to take revenge for her, yet she not only didn’t appreciate his kindness but was even afraid of him.

Gu Ningyi wanted to sneer, but not a hint of a curve could form on his lips.

His hand unconsciously gripped the armrest of the chair, a trace of ruthlessness attached to his whole body, the dangerous aura immediately spreading all around him.

Dong Xin Yan stood firmly in place, her spine seeping thin sweat bit by bit, her heartbeat gradually accelerating.

She didn’t know what Gu Ningyi would do, but at this moment, her feelings were complex; she both hoped Gu Ningyi would agree and hoped he would not.

If he agreed, today’s so-called revenge would just be glossed over, but... it would also mean that Gu Ningyi could tolerate her publicly rejecting his goodwill.

Gu Ningyi was someone who never accepted rejection, but if he did accept it, what would that mean?

Just the thought of it made Dong Xin Yan involuntarily shiver.

Gu Ningyi remained silent for a long time, the atmosphere growing colder, causing the entire set to fall quiet, everyone becoming tense, not daring to take a single deep breath.

Gu Ningyi’s grip on his hand tightened further, the veins on the back of his hand popping out one by one. If it were in the past, he would have already been furious; he had always been wild and unrestrained, yet now, even though the fire of anger blazed fiercely within him, rampaging inside his body in need of an outlet, he... still forcibly repressed it.
