Chapter 767: Gu Ningyi, Marry Me (5)
Unfortunately, at that time, she had nowhere to turn. Because of this situation, she had fallen out with her family, and all her friends and the men who once surrounded her had disappeared, leaving only Mr. Dong willing to take care of her.
She had no choice but to rely on him.
Once... she did love her, after all, she was the one who carried her for ten months and gave birth to her. But that faint love was not enough to overcome the deep hatred in her heart.
Her life was not meant to be like this.
She wanted the best life, the most splendid life, not staying with a man with no money or power, carrying a burden, living in such a small house, and spending a lifetime in poverty and mediocrity.

When Dong Xin Yan walked out of the luxurious Wei Family mansion, Gu Ningyi stood under the sunshine, tall and upright. He lightly lifted his eyelids, his dark eyes looking at her, the corners of his lips slightly curved, unbelievably handsome.
Dong Xin Yan’s eyes suddenly warmed, and tears blurred her vision.
She lifted her foot, ran towards Gu Ningyi, threw herself into his arms, and hugged him tightly.
She’s not sad, she won’t care about what Lady Wei said. Even if she didn’t want her, even if she hated her, she still had Gu Ningyi, she still had her father, and that was enough.
She would no longer yearn for love that wasn’t hers; she would cherish the love that was hers.
"Gu Ningyi, marry me." Dong Xin Yan said in a hoarse voice, enunciating each word clearly and resolutely.
Dong Xin Yan suddenly rushed over like this, catching Gu Ningyi off guard and forcing him to take a few steps back. Before he could regain his balance, her words reached his ears.
He was stunned for a moment, as if he hadn’t heard her clearly, murmuring, "What did you say?"
"Gu Ningyi, marry me."
In his arms, Dong Xin Yan lifted her head, looked at him, and repeated the words without hesitation, "Let’s get married."
Life is so unpredictable, no one knows what might happen in the next second, so why should she disturb herself over trivial matters?
She loved him, and he loved her. Nothing else was an obstacle.
She had promised Xin Ruo to live happily, even including her share.
So she wanted to live happily with Gu Ningyi, until they both had white hair.
"Xinyan, do you know what you’re saying?" Gu Ningyi was still dazed, the light in his dark eyes flickered and appeared stunned, as if he couldn’t believe it.
He lowered his gaze to meet her eyes, staring deeply, his voice low and heavy, "Some words, once spoken, cannot be taken back."
Dong Xin Yan also gazed at him, her red lips gently parted, "I won’t regret it, absolutely won’t regret it."

After a flight of more than ten hours, the two of them were not tired at all; on the contrary, they were extremely exhilarated. After leaving the airport, they went home to grab their household registration booklets and headed straight to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
She had been to the Civil Affairs Bureau before, but had second thoughts at the entrance. This time, she wouldn’t repeat the same mistake.
Dong Xin Yan grasped the hand of the man beside her tightly, stepping alongside him, step by step into the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Photos taken, forms filled out, vows declared, certificates received, everything went so smoothly and naturally.
When the staff handed the red booklet to Dong Xin Yan, looking at the marriage certificate in her hand, she still felt a little dazed.
Yet, Gu Ningyi was grinning from ear to ear, admiring the freshly issued marriage certificate, his eyes filled with laughter. He looked at it for a moment, then extended his hand to Dong Xin Yan, saying, "Mrs. Gu, please take care of me for the rest of my life!"
