My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go-Chapter 649: Signing Another Three-Month Contract (1)

He was clearly lying to her!

If everything was going well, then why would he need to take this kind of medicine?

Doing well? Then why attempt suicide by cutting his wrists?

She really wanted to rush to him immediately and ask him why, but she knew, even if she did, Gu Ningyi might not agree to tell her, and she would expose herself early.

So no matter what, she absolutely couldn’t act impulsively, she had to stay calm.

Just based on this medicine, she still couldn’t deduce what exactly happened in those four months, so she had to continue investigating, her clues being the remaining pills.

She would figure it out, understand it clearly, what those pills were!

Dong Xin Yan’s hands, hanging by her sides, clenched tightly, her gaze heavy and determined.

Unfortunately, while her ideals were grand, reality was very harsh... Because in the following period, despite Dong Xin Yan trying every possible way and looking for every opportunity, she still didn’t manage to get back up to the second floor.

Either she couldn’t get near the stairs, or just when she’d struggled halfway up, someone would suddenly come by, scaring her into hastily retreating again.

After trying for many days and still getting nowhere, Dong Xin Yan grabbed her phone, dialed that turned-off number, left a message, and bitterly complained: "Gu Ningyi, either live well and live your life properly, what is all this nonsense now? Do you know how much I want to find you to clear things up, but now you always wear a cold face, as if I owe you millions, and as soon as I get close, you chase me away without a word, making me sneak around to investigate. Yesterday, I twisted my foot on the stairs by accident, it hurt, hurt like hell, but my heart hurts even more. I don’t know what happened to you, I feel heartache, seeing you this way makes my heart ache, you’re sick, not doing well, and it hurts me more, so... please stop making me feel so much pain, can you...!"

As she spoke, it was as if something was stuck in her throat, tears streaming down as Dong Xin Yan couldn’t help but sob quietly.

She had never felt such a sense of powerlessness, spreading unchecked within her, almost overwhelming her entirely.

She had feared the truth before, now she was desperate to know it, however, the truth... might be worse, more terrifying than she imagined.

If it were possible, she would rather stop here, not knowing anything, but she couldn’t.

So no matter how bitter, how hard, how much she didn’t want to face it, she had to do it!

It was another late night, Dong Xin Yan quietly left the room as soon as everyone was almost asleep, and quickly headed toward the main building.

Who knew, just as she stepped into the living room of the main building, the butler came walking up to her.

She tensed up, wanting to retreat, but it was already too late.

"Hey, you there, why are you still here?" The butler’s stern voice came over.

Dong Xin Yan secretly cursed her luck, her hands unconsciously clenching as her eyes darted around nervously, stammering, "Umm, umm I lost an earring here, it’s very important, so I came back to look for it, lost track of time, sorry, it won’t happen again, I’ll leave now."

With that, she was about to turn around and leave when the butler stopped her, "Wait a moment."

Dong Xin Yan felt a chill down her spine, only to hear the butler’s next words: "Help the young master make a cup of coffee and bring it to the study for him."
