The fact was already right in front of him, yet Gu Ningyi still heard his own voice, slowly emerging, as if unwilling to face this cruel truth, desperately trying to find a flicker of hope for himself.
If Lady Wei hadn't come tonight... a few days ago, her answer would undoubtedly have been no.
But these past few days, even though she has always disliked Gu Ningyi, she couldn't deny that he has been very gentle with her, very kind. Moreover, his deep affection for Zhou Yalin also deeply touched her heart.
So her coming here today was selfish, but she also sincerely wanted to help him.
"No, it's not."
Dong Xin Yan shook her head, looking at Gu Ningyi, and said very earnestly, "I'm not just doing this because of Lady Wei."
Gu Ningyi's gaze suddenly paused; if she wasn't just doing it because of Lady Wei, then... was there still a part of her that was doing it because of him?
"Even without Lady Wei, I would agree to help you."
