My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go-Chapter 737 Let’s Cooperate (9)

She reached for the bedside table, picked up the glass of water, and brought it to her lips, intending to swallow her medicine with a sip. Just as she opened her mouth, suddenly a voice sounded in her ear, "Xinyan, what are you taking?"

With the familiar sound, the man’s footsteps followed. He walked to the bedside, glanced at the medicine box on the bed, and his dark eyes suddenly tightened.

Dong Xin Yan looked over, her heart suddenly skipped, and an inexplicable sense of guilt surged up. Without thinking, she quickly lunged over, grabbed the medicine box, and hid it behind her.

Her long curled eyelashes trembled, Dong Xin Yan didn’t dare to look at Gu Ningyi, her voice was somewhat shaky, "You... when did you come back?"

Gu Ningyi seemed not to hear Dong Xin Yan talking, his dark eyes stared at her intensely, a myriad of emotions flickered beneath them. Unconsciously, a hint of coldness crept between his brows. He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the rage boiling in his chest. He tried his best to control himself and spoke in a calm tone, "Spit out the medicine."

Dong Xin Yan’s lips moved slightly, wanting to say something, but in the end, she said nothing. She took a tissue and spit the medicine onto it.

"Why are you taking this kind of medicine?" Gu Ningyi’s voice followed, even though it was still calm, one could hear the tumultuous waves beneath the surface, "Didn’t I say, if you’re pregnant, then we’ll have the baby. We’ll be parents. Why do you need to take medicine?"

Dong Xin Yan didn’t expect to be caught by Gu Ningyi, her eyes flickered, momentarily unsure how to explain to him. Her delicate brows furrowed as she thought about how to start.

Her silence only further ignited the fire within Gu Ningyi.

Gu Ningyi’s face was expressionless, his eyes void of any warmth, as if he thought of something, his entire body was involuntarily covered with a layer of frost, "Could it be you..."

Realizing what Gu Ningyi was about to do, Dong Xin Yan hurriedly shook her head, quickly denying, "No, no, it’s definitely not what you’re thinking!"

She couldn’t help but grab his hand, stammering to explain, "I just... just feel... our relationship is uncertain, if, if I am pregnant, it wouldn’t be good..."

Uncertain relationship?

Gu Ningyi seemed unable to understand these four words, his dark eyes coldly gazing at her, "Dong Xin Yan, what do you mean by our relationship is uncertain? Hmm?"

Dong Xin Yan wished she could slap herself. In her anxiety, she often said the wrong things.

She shook her head vigorously, "What I mean is, having a child now is a bit too soon, we’ve just gotten together, haven’t we? We should enjoy our time together more, shouldn’t we?"

Gu Ningyi’s face did not change even slightly because of Dong Xin Yan’s words. He even curled his lips into a mocking smile, "Dong Xin Yan, did I ever tell you, if you can’t be sure your lie won’t be seen through by me, then don’t lie to my face?" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Dong Xin Yan also knew that her flimsy lie could never fool Gu Ningyi, it was just deceiving herself.

She dropped her eyes dejectedly, muttering, "Gu Ningyi, don’t be angry, I didn’t want to deceive you, I’m just afraid... once there’s a child, everything now will change..."

Once she became pregnant, it would no longer be just a simple matter of dating between her and him. Dating could be a matter for two people, but marriage, it would be a matter for two families.
