My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go-Chapter 727: Are We Going to Have a Long-Distance Relationship? (3)

After saying those words, Dong Xin Yan sensed something wrong, and she quickly explained, "What I mean is, you just took over the position of CEO of MK Group, how can you return home now?"

Gu Ningyi raised his eyebrows indifferently, "This position is dispensable to me; I took it only to avoid you. Now there’s nowhere left to avoid, so this position is meaningless. Besides, you’ve been in the United States for so long, don’t you want to go back?"

Even though she has been in the United States for almost half a year, she still feels unfamiliar with this city, still has no sense of belonging. If possible, she certainly wants to return home as soon as possible, to see her father, to see Qin Qian, to see Wenwen, but... she and her mother have just reconnected, their relationship is slowly being repaired, and leaving now... who knows when they’ll meet again.

She is somewhat reluctant to leave.

"Do we have to leave now? Can’t it be a bit later?"

Dong Xin Yan’s dark eyes gazed at Gu Ningyi, her hands unconsciously clutching the corner of his clothes, her eyes blinking with a hint of pleading.

In the past, even if his heart was as hard as a rock, facing such a look from her, Gu Ningyi would instantly be softened, but now, he shook his head without hesitation.

"No, I’ve been away from home for too long. Compared to MK Group, the Gu Group needs me more, I have to go back."

Dong Xin Yan knows that Gu Ningyi initially left all his responsibilities at home to come to the United States because of her. Now that he wants to return, it’s naturally understandable, and she has no reason to ask him to stay with her any longer.

So...

Dong Xin Yan was conflicted inside, thinking over and over, bit her red lips, and said, "Okay, then you go back first, I’ll leave a bit later."

At least she should spend more time with her mother, spend more time with Xin Ruo, right?

Xin Ruo doesn’t have much time left, only half a year. She likes her so much, depends on her. If she leaves now, she’ll surely be very sad, as will her mother.

Although Gu Ningyi had anticipated this answer, when Dong Xin Yan actually said it, he still felt a harsh choke.

He and the woman in front of him have even gone through the most painful parting in life and death, yet she still chooses others instead of choosing him without hesitation.

Gu Ningyi’s dark eyes instantly became somber, showing his dissatisfaction completely, "Dong Xin Yan, do you mean we have to have a long-distance relationship?"

Long-distance relationship?

Out of nowhere, how did it become about a long-distance relationship?

"No, I’m just letting you go back first; I’ll leave a bit later. How can that be considered a long-distance relationship?" Dong Xin Yan quickly explained.

Gu Ningyi pulled at the corners of his lips, "A long-distance relationship, as long as lovers are in different places, counts as one. We just reconciled, and you plan to separate from me? The longer we’re apart, the more likely we are to finally break apart completely?"

"..."

Why does a seemingly trivial problem sound so serious when he says it? Dong Xin Yan suddenly felt her mind was a bit overloaded.

"I don’t mean that." She argued weakly, "I just want to spend more time with my mother and Xin Ruo. If I return now, it might be hard to find time to meet in the future, can you understand that?" 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Alright, I understand." Gu Ningyi smiled, "Since that’s the case, just stay. But..."
