My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go-Chapter 738 Let’s Cooperate (10)

Change?

Gu Ningyi’s dark eyes deepened, "Dong Xin Yan, you don’t want to marry me?"

Although he had not officially proposed to her, he had more or less tested her a few times. Each time she was evasive, he initially thought she just wasn’t ready, so he hadn’t taken it seriously, but it seemed that wasn’t the case.

How could she not want to marry him?

Dong Xin Yan shook her head vigorously again, "Of course not."

"Then what are you afraid of? Afraid that I won’t take responsibility if we have a child? Or do you think we will break up in the future?" Gu Ningyi’s tone was light, but his words were aggressive.

Dong Xin Yan had nowhere to retreat, her teeth bit her lower lip tightly, she took a deep breath, and opened her lips, "I’m not afraid of anything, it’s just... Your family might not accept me."

She grew up in the Gu Family, accustomed to their aloofness, especially Madam Gu, who appeared gentle and kind on the surface, but inside was keeping people at a distance. She dared not hold any unrealistic hopes about the Gu Family.

She might as well... treasure her days with Gu Ningyi, not think about anything else, just be happy together.

Seeing Dong Xin Yan take after morning medicine, countless reasons flashed through Gu Ningyi’s mind, but he never thought she was worried about his family.

It turns out she wasn’t planning to leave him, but was worried about their future.

The fire gathered inside him, like a pricked balloon, instantly deflated. At the same time, a bit of comfort and a touch of heartache rose in his heart.

It was because he hadn’t given her enough sense of security, so she was so apprehensive.

Yet her apprehension, ironically, made him feel quite relieved.

In this love story, it’s no longer his solo endeavor, tirelessly running after her.

"Silly."

Gu Ningyi said softly, reaching out to pull Dong Xin Yan into his embrace, "The only thing you need to do is stand firmly by my side, nothing else needs your consideration, nothing else needs you to think about, because you have me."

Because you have me...

Oftentimes, lovers don’t need too many sweet words; just a few simple words can calm the anxious heart of the other.

Leaning against Gu Ningyi, Dong Xin Yan’s anxious heart indeed eased slightly, but she was still a bit worried. She looked up at him in his arms with concern, "Gu Ningyi, what if your family really doesn’t accept me, what then?"

Gu Ningyi lowered his gaze, looking at Dong Xin Yan’s furrowed brows, and his lips curled with a wicked smile, "Don’t worry, they will accept you."

"How do you know?"

"What I like, they will naturally like, so... be at ease. Also, Dong Xin Yan, throw away all the medicine you have, let me catch you with it again, and see how I deal with you!"

The next day, Gu Ningyi returned to the old house.

Not having seen her son for several months, Madam Gu inspected Gu Ningyi thoroughly, noticing his spirit and complexion had returned to normal, feeling deeply gratified. She turned her head, instructing Nanny Zhang, "Tell the kitchen to make a few more dishes to nourish my son’s body well."

Nanny Zhang smiled in agreement, "Yes, Madam."

"Ningyi, this time you’ve come back, you’re not leaving again, right?"

Gu Ningyi leaned against the sofa, legs elegantly crossed, nodding lightly, "Mm."

Madam Gu smiled upon hearing this, "If you’re not leaving, then hurry up and arrange your marriage with Yuan Shi, it was delayed last time, and more than half a year has passed just like that."
