My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go-Chapter 756: Why Do This (2)

Wei Xinruo’s voice came through the phone, as gentle and pleasant as ever, "Sis, what are you doing?"

Though it hadn’t been long since she reunited with Wei Xinruo, Dong Xin Yan genuinely adored this younger sister; hearing her voice, the sad thoughts seemed to dissipate a bit.

"I’m driving, is something up?"

"Ah, then you keep driving, I’ll call you later."

"Alright, I’ll call you later."

"Okay, I’ll wait for your call."

After hanging up, Dong Xin Yan took off her headset, and the car steadily moved forward.

Wei Xinruo continued to wait for Dong Xin Yan’s call. However, as time ticked by, her phone never rang. While waiting, she leaned against the headboard and unknowingly fell asleep.

When she woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.

The sunlight streamed in through the floor-to-ceiling window, illuminating the large bedroom. Wei Xinruo squinted, her mind still a bit foggy. She rubbed her eyes, and inadvertently spotted the phone sitting nearby. With a start, she grabbed it to check, but there was nothing on it.

A whole night had passed, why hadn’t her sister called?

Inexplicably, she felt extremely uneasy. She forced herself to suppress those chaotic thoughts and hurriedly dialed Dong Xin Yan’s number, but was met with a cold message: the phone you have dialed is turned off.

Not giving up, she dialed again, over and over, but the result was the same.

Anxiety gradually turned into panic. The words Lady Wei had said yesterday involuntarily echoed in her ears, impossible to shake off. She wanted to rush out and ask her if she had done anything to her sister, but was afraid that without understanding anything, she would only alert the enemy, which would, in turn, harm her sister.

What to do?

Wei Xinruo anxiously paced back and forth for a while before suddenly remembering Gu Ningyi.

Right, there’s Brother Ning Yi.

She needed to find Brother Ning Yi!

Wei Xinruo picked up her phone, found Gu Ningyi’s number, her fingers trembling slightly, and dialed the number.

-

When Wei Xinruo called, Gu Ningyi was in a meeting.

His phone was on vibrate, spinning slowly on the conference table.

Gu Ningyi’s dark eyes glanced over it, reached out, and pressed decline. But in just a few seconds, she called again.

Gu Ningyi furrowed his brows slightly, a glint of light fleeting through his eyes. Xinruo was always sensible and never disturbed others when she shouldn’t. Pressing decline typically indicated he was busy, so why did she keep calling?

After a few seconds of thought, he made a pause gesture, then picked up the phone, pressing answer as he walked out.

"Xinruo..."

Gu Ningyi had just called out Xinruo’s name and hadn’t had time to ask what was wrong when her anxious voice already rushed into his ear, "Brother Ning Yi, is sis with you?"

"Xinyan?" Gu Ningyi paused, "We’re not together."

"Then... did you see her yesterday? Can you contact her?"

Wei Xinruo’s tone was unmistakably off, and Gu Ningyi’s dark eyes narrowed, his gaze deepening. Instead of answering, he asked, "Xinruo, what happened?"

"I, I called sis yesterday, but at that time, she was driving and said she’d call me later. But I waited all night, and she never did. I just tried to call her and her phone is off. I suspect... something might have happened to sis!"
