You Owe Me, My Love

You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 205

“I don’t know much about psychology, but he has cheated on you. You’ll eventually find someone who’ll treat you wholeheartedly, and the key is knowing when to let go,” said the man.

“Thank you. I’ll have to hang up because of an incoming call.” However, Bai Rong didn’t answer it because it was Gu Mingchen.

I should calm myself down first before I regret saying hurtful words. Since I’m still quite aggressive and aggrieved, I might end up hurting both of us. In fact, he’s not just anyone but my family, friend, colleague, boss, and even lover.

When he called once more, she eventually answered it.

“Where are you?” he asked wearily.

She thought to herself. What use is it if I scold him for spending all his energy and patience on other women? He would only think of me as a pain in the neck.

Humans naturally avoid suffering and pursue happiness. More importantly, girls lose their temper to gain the guys’ attention and demand for them to improve. Still, I’ll only end up hurting myself if he doesn’t change since he doesn’t care at all.

“I’m outside settling some matters,” replied Bai Rong indifferently.

“Alright. See you tomorrow, then.”

She bit her lip. Wow. He neither asked what I’m up to nor offer to help. Hmph. Men are the most cold- blooded animals indeed.

“Bye.” She softly hung up, turned off her phone, and lay on the bed.

The more I more clearly I see things, the more painful it is. I’m definitely losing sleep tonight. Well, since no one loves me, I’ll have to take care of myself now.

She fished out some pills from her bag, took them, and rested.

The following day, she had a terrible headache and sore throat, and her eyes hurt so badly that she could hardly open them.

It seems like a high fever. When she realized it was already 10 a.m., she shakily got out of bed to wash up. Then, she called a cab and headed to the nearest hospital. After getting off the vehicle, she saw Gu Mingchen’s car passing by.

After he got off, he was seen carrying a girl in his arms and heading toward the hospital.

Seeing that, she slumped back into the cab and watched him disappear from her sight.

If I’m not his wife and just a stranger to him, or if I didn’t promise to marry him, I probably wouldn’t be this miserable now.

She knew this would frequently happen in her hellish marriage, and she shuddered at the thought of it. She really didn’t want to live a life like this.

Trembling, she dug her phone out.

“Ma’am, are you getting off?” The cab driver asked.

“Please take me to First People’s Hospital,” answered Bai Rong. Hence, the driver did as told.

Then, she called Su Xuyan, “Today is the second day of my marriage with Gu Mingchen. Can you help to annul it, please? I regret it already.”

“Yes, because your marriage information is not saved in the system yet. What you should do now is to steal the marriage certificate, so others can’t obtain the information, which means you’re no longer married. In fact, I have to let you know that he didn’t use his military ID to marry you. Thus, it’s easy to settle it as it’s just another conventional marriage,” replied Su Xuyan smilingly.

Bai Rong sneered silently. Game over, Gu Mingchen.

“Got it. Thank you,” she feebly responded as she was suffering from a terrible fever.

“Just treat me to a meal, Bai Rong. You owe me two of them already.”

“Sure.”

“The most important thing is to get the marriage certificate,” reminded her friend Su Xuyan.

“Alright.” Bai Rong hung up.

As she was about to pass out, she feared that she wouldn’t be able to wait in line at the hospital. As soon as she saw a private clinic, she asked the driver to drop her there.

Then, she gave him fifty. “Keep the change. Thank you.”

She staggered toward the clinic with much difficulty. When she reached, she asked the doctor to prescribe some medicine and hook her up to an IV. She even added, “Please find a nurse to help me change the bandage.”

Knowing that she was probably a medical professional, the doctor quickly agreed as it didn’t affect his profits.

Bai Rong lost consciousness while lying on the hospital bed.

Eventually, she woke up three hours later.

She then realized that the nurse had applied medicine on her wounds and had changed the bandage. She was also hooked up to an IV.

“Hello ma’am, your phone rang several times,” reminded the nurse kindly.

Bai Rong thought to herself. Hmm. Private clinics do offer quality services.

“Thank you.” She then got up from the bed and still feeling a little dizzy. I guess I’ll have to come again tomorrow.

Fishing her phone out of her bag, she noticed that Gu Mingchen called, so she returned his call.

“When are you coming back?” he asked straightforwardly.

“In an hour. Ask the soldiers to wait at the entrance. Otherwise, I might not be allowed to get in.”

“Okay.”

Bai Rong put on some makeup to conceal her haggard looks. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

When she arrived by cab, she saw Gu Mingchen waiting for her at the entrance.

Nevertheless, she only glanced at him icily. On the first day of our marriage, he took a woman to a hotel. The next day, he took a woman to the hospital. Ironically, I went to the same hotel and hospital as him. The difference was that I was alone, but he was not. Thus, it would be impossible for me not to feel hurt and pained, but these are pointless before a coldhearted man. Well, letting him go is easier. I don’t want to have a torturous marriage for another three years. I would be thirty by then, and my youth will soon be over.

She got into his car without bringing up the incident that happened on that day and the day before. Meanwhile, Gu Mingchen stayed quiet, too.

“Where did you keep our marriage certificate?” Bai Rong asked casually while staring ahead.

“In the nightstand. Why?” He looked at her and replied.

She smirked wickedly and peered at him with sarcasm, coldness, misery, but even relief. “Nothing. Just asking.”

“Okay. Have you eaten?” Gu Mingchen asked.

When she recalled the takeaway that he and the girl had ordered in the middle of the night, she felt disgusted to eat with him.

She neither had dinner last night nor ate anything that day, but she didn’t want to dine with him, much less letting him watch her eat. Hence, she replied, “I have.”

“I have scheduled the meeting at 4 p.m., and I have prepared the documents. You can go through them before it starts.”

“Okay,” replied Bai Rong indifferently.

She just wanted to get the marriage certificate and destroy it.

Gu Mingchen looked at her and held her hand.

As if shocked by electricity, she scowled and aggressively pulled out her hand. Subsequently, she glared at him defensively.

“What’s the matter?” he asked puzzledly. She seems a little off today.
