My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go-Chapter 687: You Have to Take Responsibility for Me (15)

When feelings run deep, everything falls naturally into place.

His kiss transformed from rough to gentle, his movements from eager to lingering. Dong Xin Yan slowly sensed his inner tenderness and deep affection; he hadn’t changed, he was still her Gu Ningyi.

She slightly opened her misty eyes, looking at the man above her, her hand instinctively reaching to stroke his face.

She truly wished that between them, there was nothing but love.

She truly wished that time could linger at this moment... just a little longer.

Even knowing she shouldn’t, she still uncontrollably found herself deeply ensnared; even knowing it was wrong, she couldn’t help but be tempted by her. In front of her, he always found himself lost.

Lost in her beauty, lost in her smile.

After a session of passion, the woman was utterly exhausted, softly nestled in his arms, her cheeks a rich red, the corners of her lips unconsciously lifting, sleeping sweetly.

His dark eyes lowered, his gaze fixed on her face. After a long time, his hand unconsciously lifted, slowly moving towards Dong Xin Yan’s cheek, yet, just as his fingertips were about to touch, he paused.

His hand remained stiff in the air for a long time; finally, his fingers slowly curled, a little at a time, forming a fist.

He knew he was about to falter, his walls were shaking violently, perhaps they just needed a light push to completely collapse.

However, what kind of world would it be after the collapse? He didn’t know, nor did he have the courage to find out.

The truth he told Dong Xin Yan... there was actually one thing he omitted.

A month of frenzied drinking had not only destroyed his body but also deeply wounded his heart. He missed Dong Xin Yan so much that he unconsciously tended to self-destruct. Upon diagnosis, he was determined to have post-traumatic stress disorder.

He numbed his heart and hypnotized his heart just to avoid suffering, to avoid living in the yearning for Dong Xin Yan. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Knowing that Dong Xin Yan hadn’t married, knowing that she chased him to the airport, knowing that she was desperately looking for him, how could his heart not be moved? How could he really look away?

Yet, he had already lost the ability to trust her.

The night gradually deepened, the heat in his body subsiding, reason returning. Gu Ningyi closed his eyes gently and, after a moment, opened them again. The light in his dark eyes restored to its usual coldness and indifference.

Gu Ningyi gently moved the woman in his arms aside and slowly withdrew his hand from under her neck. Yet, just as he halfway withdrew his hand, Dong Xin Yan, as if sensing something, snuggled her head against his chest, wrapping her limbs around him, holding him tightly.

Gu Ningyi frowned slightly, his hand trying to remove her arms and legs, but Dong Xin Yan, as if guarding her toy, clung tightly and wouldn’t let go no matter what.

In the end, Gu Ningyi couldn’t bring himself to forcibly push her away, and the strength in his hand slowly dissipated.

He gathered Dong Xin Yan’s soft body back into his embrace, his dark eyes flickering slightly. Gazing at her sleeping face, he whispered to himself, let him indulge just this last night, let him sink into this beautiful dream one last time.

-

Gu Ningyi surprisingly slept for a long time, so long that when he opened his eyes, his mind was muddled and dazed, until the familiar crisp voice rang by his ear.

"Gu Ningyi, you have to take responsibility for me!"

Gu Ningyi slowly sat up from the bed, his eyelids lifting softly, meeting the girl’s bright, dark eyes.
