My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go-Chapter 573 He Saved Your Life Twice (7)

Because of them, Cheng Ziyang is very likely to lose his legs from now on, to lose his bright future. His future life is equivalent to being completely destroyed, and the rest of his life may be shrouded in immense darkness, unable to extricate himself.

This is a feeling even more unbearable than death.

Because he has tried it, he understands more clearly what kind of feeling it is.

And this darkness does not just cover him alone, but also her.

She may even be more painful, more unbearable, more unable to face herself, or face him...

So, he tried to stop her, selfishly trying to stop her, hoping she wouldn’t go see Zhou Yalin, wouldn’t dig deeper, wouldn’t find out what the real reason was.

In this way, he could still keep her, could stay by her side, could still possess her.

However, she ultimately went, stepping away without hesitation.

Dong Xin Yan’s heart, like her exterior, is stubborn and unyielding. She wants to know the truth, and she will get to the bottom of it no matter what.

He could stop her this time, but he couldn’t stop her next time.

So he could only sit in the chair, just like that, watching her ever distancing back, just as now, he could only watch her panic and unease after knowing the truth.

Helpless, powerless.

Gu Ningyi’s hands clenched tightly, the veins on the back of his hands slightly protruding. Soon, he slowly loosened his grip, forcing himself to pull at the corners of his lips, forming a faint, shallow curve.

He stood up, striding step by step towards Dong Xin Yan.

Dong Xin Yan kept her head bowed, walking in a daze. She had walked right up to Gu Ningyi without realizing it, her head bumping directly into him.

Her steps suddenly halted, and Zhou Yalin’s cold words suddenly slipped past her ear: He became like this because of you and Gu Ningyi...

Tiny, dense needles seemed to stab her from every direction, piercing her skin fiercely, straight into her heart. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

No blood was seen, yet it was a heart-gnawing, bone-eating kind of pain.

Her whole body trembled involuntarily, and the hands hanging at her sides clenched unconsciously, tighter and tighter. She almost lost the courage to lift her head to look at him.

"Xinyan."

The deep voice sounded above her head. He lifted his hand, reaching towards her cheek, as if wanting to touch her face. But just as his fingertips were about to touch her cheek, she uncontrollably turned her face away, avoiding his hand.

Gu Ningyi’s hand fell into emptiness, stiffly suspended in mid-air. Dong Xin Yan’s heart was also suddenly gouged by something, the pain sending cold sweat down her spine.

She knew avoiding his touch would hurt Gu Ningyi, but now she was plunged into extreme chaos and heaviness. She couldn’t face Gu Ningyi. Seeing him, all she could think of was Ziyang lying in a pool of blood, the bloody image gripping and capturing her heart tightly.

She didn’t know what to do. She only knew she didn’t want to see anyone now; she just wanted to be alone, all by herself.

"Gu Ningyi, I want to be alone for a while, walk by myself. You... don’t follow me."

Pausing a moment, her voice broke, the words coming out with nearly all her strength, "Please... please..."
