My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go-Chapter 729 Let’s Cooperate (1)

Lady Wei has always been elegant, her demeanor graceful, maintaining a perfect posture no matter where she is, but in that moment, the knife and fork in her hand slipped, fell onto the plate, and made a crisp sound.

Everyone’s gaze involuntarily turned toward her.

Dong Xin Yan slightly furrowed her brows, eyes filled with concern, "Mom, are you alright?"

Wei Xinruo was equally anxious.

Only Gu Ningyi, gently raised an eyebrow, lazily glanced at Lady Wei, with a half-smile on his handsome face.

"Leaving so soon?"

Lady Wei’s voice was a bit hoarse as she looked at Dong Xin Yan, her gaze intense, "Xinyan, can’t you stay a few more days?"

In Dong Xin Yan’s heart, naturally, she wished to stay a bit longer, but...family bonds are precious, love is even more valuable!

She knew that what Gu Ningyi said to her was nothing but teasing, if he could truly be interested in another woman, he wouldn’t have been holding onto her alone. She compromised because she didn’t want to be apart from him either. It wasn’t easy for them to be together, and they cherish every moment spent with each other.

Wei Xinruo didn’t want Dong Xin Yan and Gu Ningyi to leave so quickly, so she couldn’t help but reach out and grab Dong Xin Yan’s hand, "Sister, why are you and Brother Ning Yi leaving so soon? I can’t bear for you to leave; if you do, I’ll be left all alone!"

As she spoke, a hint of moisture welled up in her eyes, and her voice carried a touch of sobbing.

Dong Xin Yan’s eyes were slightly red, involuntarily looking toward Gu Ningyi.

Gu Ningyi didn’t look at her, but fixed his gaze on Lady Wei, his thin lips lightly opening as he spoke nonchalantly, "I have some matters to handle domestically, so I’m eager to head back. Although I don’t want to be separated from Xinyan, if Lady Wei truly can’t bear to part with Xinyan, I can let her stay a while longer to keep you company."

Gu Ningyi willingly offered an olive branch, and naturally, Lady Wei wanted to take it, but meeting Gu Ningyi’s gaze, her heart couldn’t help but tremble.

The young man before her possesses an unignoreable acumen and insight. Under his piercing gaze, all her intentions seemed laid bare.

Words caught in her throat, Lady Wei swallowed them back down.

Had he detected something?

Lady Wei wasn’t certain, yet she dared not act rashly.

Unless as a last resort, she didn’t want to confront Gu Ningyi directly because there was no chance of winning!

Lady Wei’s hand unconsciously tightened, but the corners of her lips slowly curved into a faint smile, "Mr. Gu, you must be joking. I’ve heard from Xin Ruo about your situation. It wasn’t easy for you two to reunite, for Xinyan to find happiness again. As her mother, how could I selfishly keep Xinyan here?"

After speaking, Lady Wei turned back to Dong Xin Yan, her hand covering the joined hands of Dong Xin Yan and Wei Xinruo, her voice gentle and sincere, "Xinyan, after you return home, you must take good care of yourself, keep in touch, and if there’s anything, tell mom; if I can help, I certainly will, understand?"

"Sister, I too, after you return, don’t forget about me and call me every day."

"Mm, I understand." Dong Xin Yan replied hoarsely, responding one by one.

-

Night, Wei Mansion.

"Ma’am, are you really letting Dong Xin Yan go like this? Once she returns home..." The butler’s words trailed off.

Lady Wei leaned against the sofa, her brow tightly furrowed.
