My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go-Chapter 657: Signing Another Three-Month Agreement (9)

Gu Ningyi looked at her with surprise all over her face, the corners of his lips curled slightly, and he spoke without any emotion, "Yes, I’m here every day, living in a drunken stupor."

He escaped the plane crash, but he couldn’t escape the torment of love.

He had indeed boarded the plane, but as he sat in his seat and turned to look out the window, he vaguely saw that familiar figure running toward him, and he couldn’t help but run down.

Unfortunately... it was just an illusion. The girl he was waiting for still didn’t come, choosing to leave him.

He took the next flight to the United States, and after checking into a hotel, he was trapped in extreme pain, unable to extricate himself, and could only numb himself with alcohol every day.

He really thought he could let go gracefully, that he could live his life well, but he hadn’t thought... it was too difficult.

Whether his eyes were open or closed, she was everywhere, yet she could no longer belong to him.

Once, he had confirmed his feelings for her in this very room, and now he had to forget her completely in this room.

A bottle of wine wasn’t enough, so he tried two bottles. Two weren’t enough, so he tried three. He didn’t know how much he drank, nor how much time had passed, until he was in such a confused and painful stupor that in the end... he just wanted to end it all.

Any kind of end would do, as long as it could make him forget Dong Xin Yan.

Later, he regained consciousness in a hospital, having suffered from alcohol poisoning, and had even unintentionally hurt himself. Had he not been discovered in time, his life would have been in danger.

But the first thought that crossed his mind when he woke up was... why was he brought back to consciousness.

He was never a fragile person, but this time, he wanted to escape reality, unwilling to face it, for being conscious... only brought him agony.

Until his mother came to visit.

"Living in a drunken stupor..."

Dong Xin Yan murmured, staring blankly at the mess on the floor. Even though he uttered those words so casually, she could imagine the torment he had once endured and could understand the kind of hurt she had caused him.

A whole month of drinking...

A whole month of numbing himself...

How much pain must one be in to resort to self-destruction like this.

Her long eyelashes trembled violently, and tears suddenly fell from her eyes, "I’m... I’m sorry."

"Sorry?" Gu Ningyi’s eyes flickered with a hint of mockery, his whole aura turning colder. He questioned her and let out a bitter laugh but said no more. Instead, he stepped forward, grabbed Dong Xin Yan’s wrist again, and pulled her out.

Dong Xin Yan found herself sitting in the car once again, with Gu Ningyi driving at breakneck speed until they stopped at a private clinic. He still held her wrist tightly, pulling her inside and into a consultation room.

"This is where I spent the second month in the United States!"

Gu Ningyi looked at Dong Xin Yan with a sidelong glance, speaking coldly, "I received treatment here."

Dong Xin Yan stood frozen in place, bewilderedly looking around the consultation room. The environment wasn’t unfamiliar to her because she had also received treatment in a similar place. "Receiving treatment, was it... to forget me?"

"No."

Gu Ningyi answered succinctly, "I’m not forgetting you; I just want to forget love."

Having numbed himself for a month, almost destroying his own body, he still couldn’t forget her, so why force himself? But... he couldn’t forget her, but he could forget how to love her.
