My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go-Chapter 625: He Really Is Still Alive (5)
Hmm, definitely. The information Qin Qian gathered this time is very accurate, there shouldn’t be any mistakes.
All she needs to do is wait patiently, just wait.
The party starts at eight o’clock, with people arriving one after another. These high society parties are all the same, everyone is dressed in finery, their glasses clink as they raise smiles and engage in pleasant conversation.
The waitstaff beside them watched these people, all secretly admiring and whispering among themselves. Only Dong Xin Yan remained in almost the same posture, wholeheartedly waiting.
Time ticks away, people came in waves, the doors of the banquet hall opening and closing. Every time the doors were pushed open, Dong Xin Yan couldn’t help but hold her breath, yet each person who entered was not who she wanted to see.
Hope and disappointment alternated, making Dong Xin Yan’s heart somewhat anxious.
This evening’s chance was something Qin Qian had fought hard to get for her. If she couldn’t meet Gu Ningyi tonight, she really didn’t know if she would ever have the opportunity to see him again.
Truly... When he used to be around her, she didn’t feel much, but after these months of searching, she finally realized the distance between her and Gu Ningyi.
Once they let go, it’s no longer easy to meet.
Between them, only love is the focal point.
Suddenly, there was a slight commotion at the entrance, and many people’s eyes unconsciously turned towards the door. Dong Xin Yan noticed, her heart slightly stirred, as if sensing something, she suddenly raised her eyes.
The door was slowly pushed open, a man with long legs strides in step by step.
Tall and slender, his face handsome yet aloof, his posture elegant, unhurried, with an increasingly imposing aura. Just standing there made him the focal point of everyone’s attention.
Since today’s occasion was formal, he wore a pure black tailcoat, noble and elegant, every gesture exuding grace.
Once he walked in, those who were either reserved or proud, the sons and daughters of society, all put on fawning smiles and approached him together, nearly encircling him in an instant.
Standing in the middle, he responded indifferently, the curve of his lips familiar to her, yet somehow unfamiliar.
After such a long absence, he seemed leaner, and... his whole aura felt much colder. He was clearly smiling, but she couldn’t feel his sincerity. Though he was still him, in that moment, he became strangely unfamiliar to her.
In the hasty glimpse half a month ago, she couldn’t see him clearly, but now she could see him distinctly.
Her heart, inexplicably, trembled slightly.
Whether it was the fear of nearing home or being stunned by his coldness, for a moment, she forgot to move, forgot to rush towards him, as if her acupoints had been tapped, she stood there, staring at him in a daze.
Gu Ningyi exchanged pleasantries with the crowd indifferently, then continued to walk further in, after a few steps, as if sensing something, he paused, his face slightly tilted, his dark eyes slowly looked over in her direction.
Time seemed to freeze at that moment, Dong Xin Yan’s breath caught, her dark eyes widened and rounded, slowly meeting Gu Ningyi’s gaze.
The softest part inside her body felt like it had been hit hard by something, then began to pound wildly.
She had been searching for him for over four months, more than one hundred and twenty days, each day spent in utmost pain and torment, all for this moment, this moment of finding him!
