The sound faded, and Dong Xin Yan slowly turned around, taking heavy steps, leaving one step at a time.
Gu Ningyi stood still, watching her staggering figure, his brow deeply furrowed, pain spread in his eyes, his thin lips pressed tightly together. He clenched his hands tightly, but slowly, he released them.
He was silent for a moment, but still lifted his foot, taking a few strides to catch up with Dong Xin Yan, reaching out from behind to grab her wrist.
Dong Xin Yan's steps halted, she did not turn back.
Gu Ningyi slightly turned his face, his dark eyes lowered, thin lips slightly moved, his voice hoarse, "Xinyan, I can let you be alone, but... I need to take you back to the hospital first."
Dong Xin Yan was taken aback, then gently shook her head, "No..."
But before she could utter the word, Gu Ningyi spoke in a deep voice again, "If you won't let me take you back to the hospital first, then I can't let you be alone."
