You Owe Me, My Love

You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 203

The woman sat down on the sofa to rest for a while and her eyelids became heavy.

Struggling not to faint, she shook her head vigorously to clear her mind and stood up. After applying red lipstick to her pale lips, Bai Rong changed into a set of fresh clothes and put on a black jacket.

That way, it wouldn’t be easily seen even if blood seeped out from her wounds.

With her luggage in hand, the woman said to the orderly, “So sorry, my suitcase is spoiled. This suitcase is very special to me and I’m going out to repair it now. Could you help me call a car? Also, I’ve accidentally dirtied the bed sheets. Do you mind changing some new sheets for me please?”

“Oh, sure. I’ll get you a car right now. Please wait for five minutes,” the orderly replied as he went off to make a call.

While the orderly was away, Bai Rong walked into Gu Mingchen’s kitchen, which was very well- equipped. She found some sugar and put some into her mouth to warm it, before swallowing.

“The car is ready for you,” the orderly reported.

“Thank you so much,” Bai Rong replied placidly and walked past him, dragging her suitcase.

The orderly took a glance at her suitcase and realized that the wheels were working fine and the zip looks OK too. He wondered why the woman said that her suitcase is spoiled.

However, he did not dare to ask her about it as it was rumored that she could very well be his chief’s future wife.

Bai Rong got into the car and tried her best to stay conscious. “Please take me to Shuiyue International. I’m feeling sleepy and will be resting for a while. Please wake me up when we are there. I

might be in deep sleep but just wake me up. Remember, you have to,” she said to the soldier driving the car.

“Sure, I understand.”

Actually, Bai Rong could go over to Liu Yan’s place.

Liu Yan was a doctor and would have all the necessary medicine and apparatus needed to treat her wounds. However, her friend would surely be very worried to see her injuries. Besides, it was hard for Liu Yan to keep things to herself.

Bai Rong shut her eyes and quickly drifted into unconsciousness.

When the orderly went into the room to change the bed sheets, he realized that the old bed sheet was gone and nowhere to be found.

He also discovered that the lamp, drinking glass and vase were all gone.

Those were not expensive items and the woman wouldn’t be able to make much money from selling them. It didn’t seem likely that she would steal those to make a profit out of them.

The orderly wondered if he should report the matter to his chief.

“Madam, wake up, wake up.”

Bai Rong felt someone shaking her and woke up. Her head was throbbing and her lips were also cracking. She looked towards the soldier weakly.

The soldier asked with a worried expression, “Are you alright? You don’t look too well.”

Bai Rong smiled faintly and replied, “I didn’t sleep well last night. Thanks for sending me here. You should get going. I’ll go back to the military base myself later.”

“Sure then,” the soldier answered while eyeing Bai Rong suspiciously.

After Bai Rong alighted, her head spun again and she supported herself by leaning against the car.

As that soldier was carrying out her suitcase from the car, he did not realize that something was amiss.

“So, I’ll go back first? If you want me to come and fetch you later, just call the chief’s orderly,” the soldier offered.

“Thank you,” Bai Rong replied softly.

After ensuring that the car had driven away and out of sight, Bai Rong finally couldn’t hang in there anymore and fainted.

After some time, she opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was an exquisite crystal chandelier.

“You’re finally awake,” Su Xuyan said in a gentle voice.

Bai Rong looked at the man, who had a sympathetic and affectionate gaze in his eyes.

“Why am I here?” Bai Rong asked dubiously and tried to sit up.

Su Xuyan pressed onto her shoulders and said, “Just lie down. You’re so badly wounded and also running a fever. How did that happen? Did Gu Mingchen hit you?”

Bai Rong shook her head and replied, “I fell down accidentally. What’s the time now?” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“5.20 p.m.,” Su Xuyan answered.

Bai Rong pulled the needle out from her vein and said, “I need to go. I’ve a meeting to attend in the afternoon and need to do some preparation work.”

Su Xuyan had a worried expression on his face as he looked at Bai Rong but did not insist that she stay. “Sure, I’ll send you back,” he said.

“Where’s my bag and suitcase?” Bai Rong asked.

“They are on the sofa outside,” Su Xuyan replied as he turned around.

Bai Rong walked out of the room and saw her bag and suitcase.

She took out her phone from her bag and saw that she had a few missed calls. Some were from her previous clients and there were a few from Liu Yan. However, none were from Gu Mingchen.

Sorrow and bitterness washed all over the woman but she put up a cold front in an attempt to bury her true feelings.

If she had guessed it correctly, Gu Mingchen should still be with the other woman.

No matter what the consequences were, Bai Rong had decided that she wanted to confront him.

“Let’s go,” Su Xuyan said as his eyes dimmed.

Bai Rong dragged her suitcase outside and emptied everything into the trash bin before going back to the military base with an empty suitcase.

When she reached the place, it was already 6.30 p.m..

She glanced at her phone but Gu Mingchen still had not contacted her.

“You should get someone to come out and fetch you, otherwise, you won’t be able to get in,” Su Xuyan reminded.

Bai Rong opened the car door and got out.

Su Xuyan remained seated inside the car but he rolled down the window and further reminded her, “Don’t forget to take your medication. You’re still running a fever. You should know that since you’re a doctor. Also, I’ve been waiting for you to come back all these while.”

Bai Rong watched as Su Xuyan drove away.

Then, she took out her phone and stared at Gu Mingchen’s number blankly for a while before deciding to call him.

“Rong, I’m attending to some matters and will be back late. Please have dinner without me. I’ll arrange for the meeting to be at 8 a.m. tomorrow,” Gu Mingchen said in a deep voice.

At that instant, Bai Rong suddenly did not feel like speaking to him anymore and ended the call.

Are human beings naturally masochistic?

The woman had really felt like telling him that she had something on as well and would not be back for a few days. However, she wanted to ask him personally what on earth he was thinking and who that woman was!

In the end, due to the indignation she was feeling, Bai Rong hailed a cab and headed to Interstellar Hotel. She requested for presidential suite room 2110 which was opposite the one Gu Mingchen was in.

The woman felt that she was a creep by doing that. She was behaving exactly like a jealous and bitter woman, observing the room opposite hers through the peephole.

Bai Rong hated her behavior but if she did not do that, she wouldn’t have been able to get pass herself.

After waiting for a long time, at around 10.20 p.m. a food delivery guy knocked on Gu Mingchen’s door. Gu Mingchen opened the door and took the food inside.

Only then did Bai Rong remember that she had not eaten dinner as well, not that she had any appetite for that.

At around midnight, Gu Mingchen finally walked out of the room.

Bai Rong opened her door and looked out. She noticed that Gu Mingchen had washed his hair, which was still wet, and he was walking quickly towards the lift.

At that instant, the woman finally completely lost it. It was like a mountain had collapsed, trapping her heart at the bottom of the debris with no daylight in sight.

Bai Rong closed the door again and lay down on the bed.

It was then that she realized she was exhausted. Due to the extended period of time which she had been standing, her legs were aching badly.

The air in the room was so still that the woman could hear her own breathing.

Perhaps that was what they called destiny. Even though Bai Rong had never done anything heinous or harmed anyone and only wished to live a carefree life, she had taken something that did not belong to her indeed. Consequently, she was suffering now.

She took a look at her phone and saw that Gu Mingchen still had not called.

Actually, he should have known that she was upset when she hung up on him earlier on.

Knowing that she was angry and yet, he still did not bother to call, that meant that he cared about the other woman more than her.
