CHAPTER 251: CHAPTER 250 DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS? (4)

Secretary Lin’s eyes turned, and she immediately guessed who the other woman was!

Oh my, the Boss flew to the United States to see his fiancée a few days ago, and she thought Dong Xin Yan had no chance. But now the Boss is going to take her to the year-end party.

This is a public revelation!

Wow, who would’ve thought that Dong Xin Yan, in just over two months, could firmly capture the Boss’s heart.

A master! An absolute master at charming men!

-

Dong Xin Yan fell asleep thinking about Ziyang last night and had a very wonderful dream, so wonderful that she didn’t want to wake up. When she opened her eyes, the sunlight outside was already dazzling.

Dong Xin Yan curved her lips into a smile, stretched comfortably, and then reached for her phone to check the time, only to see an unread text message.

It was from Gu Ningyi.

A trace of surprise flashed in her eyes. She opened the text message with her finger; it contained only three simple words: [Awake?]

Dong Xin Yan was even more amazed. Why would Gu Ningyi send her such a text? Did he send it by mistake, or did she read it wrong?

She closed her eyes and opened them again, confirming she hadn’t misread it. Puzzled, she furrowed her delicate brows, thought for a moment, and replied: [Awake.]

She had barely sent it when the phone rang.

Dong Xin Yan looked at the name flashing on the phone screen, took a deep breath, and then pressed the answer button, speaking softly, "Mr. Gu."

"You’re awake?" A deep, lazy voice came through, carrying the usual magnetism of Gu Ningyi.

"Mm... just woke up."

Dong Xin Yan responded, feeling somewhat embarrassed for having slept so late, and quickly added, "I don’t have to film today."

"Mm."

Gu Ningyi responded indifferently, his tone revealing no emotion.

Unable to fathom what Gu Ningyi meant by calling, Dong Xin Yan could only ask softly, "Mr. Gu... is something the matter?"

Gu Ningyi paused slightly before speaking slowly, "Breakfast... is downstairs. Heat it before you eat."

He said this sentence awkwardly and uncomfortably, like a child learning to speak.

But to Dong Xin Yan’s ears, it was like a sudden clap of thunder, exploding before her eyes. Reflexively, she raised her hand and pinched her cheek hard.

Gu Ningyi actually prepared breakfast for her? Is she still not awake?

But the pain on her face told her it was real.

She couldn’t help but swallow hard, wondering what was up with Gu Ningyi. Was he acting strangely again?

Her silence on the other end made Gu Ningyi feel a bit embarrassed and nervous, as he had never tried to please a woman before.

Gu Ningyi took a deep breath, trying to control the instability in his voice as he continued, "Thank you for taking care of me last night."

The heart that was suspended rapidly within Dong Xin Yan suddenly settled back down after these words.

It turned out Gu Ningyi wasn’t acting strangely; he was just thanking her for taking care of him last night. What a relief!

Dong Xin Yan patted her chest, breathed a big sigh of relief, and replied softly, "It’s nothing; it’s what I should do."

Hearing her soft voice made Gu Ningyi’s heart soften as well, causing his lips to curve upwards, his voice gentler, "Go have breakfast. Don’t go hungry."

After hanging up, Dong Xin Yan was momentarily dazed.
