You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 215

‘If the man she chose treats her like a goddess, then a goddess she shall be, but if the man she chose treats her like trash, then that shall be all she can be.’

The more she stayed with Gu Mingchen, the harsher and harder to communicate she would become. She used to abhor having arguments, conjure up conspiracies, and being cold to everyone, but then she became the kind of person she hated the most. I can’t keep this up any longer.

She leaned back against the seat and rested her eyes. Gu Mingchen glanced at her. He noticed that her eyelashes were trembling, telling him she wasn’t sleeping well. His heart ached, and his breathing turned heavier. When Bai Rong felt him breathing down her face, she opened her eyes and saw his glance.

“What is it?” she drawled.

“Is your wound getting better?” he asked calmly, his rage from earlier gone.

“Yes. The scab should be forming now. It’ll heal in no time,” she answered. Bai Rong was telling that to herself. Time will heal everything, including this pain I’m feeling.

“Are you really going to be gone for three months?” Gu Mingchen relented.

“I want to take this case.” Bai Rong wouldn’t budge.

“When will you leave?”

“Not sure. Have to wait for their call.”

“Don’t just leave and never return,” he warned her.

Bai Rong felt sad. I might do just that. Many things could happen in three months. She said nothing, for she didn’t want to make a promise easily.

Gu Mingchen noticed what she was trying to say. He felt gutted, and his breathing became shallow. He held her hand tightly, his warmth flowing into her.

“I know I shouldn’t have gone away during our wedding night. I didn’t know you were hurt. I have a lot to handle lately, and I couldn’t keep myself in check. I know I’ve raised my voice at you, and…” Gu Mingchen paused. He didn’t want to cover his mistakes or push his responsibility away. “I’ve thought about it, and I want to marry you,” he said.

Bai Rong smiled. It was a calm, gentle smile. “You want to marry me because you have raped me before, and we even have a kid, so you think you’re responsible for me. Or maybe you think you should marry me because you proposed to me before she showed up. You have a great sense of responsibility, and that’s why you’ll be wildly successful, but you’ll lead a harder life than everyone else.”

“I want to marry you because I like you,” he answered her, finally facing their relationship problems.

Bai Rong paused. It was a simple answer, but she was stirred by it. Should I trust him? Does he really feel nothing but responsibility toward Zhou Hailan? Can I live with the fact that he’ll keep taking care of another woman? Bai Rong looked away. Her mind was in a mess, and she needed time to think over everything.

Gu Mingchen looked outside too. It had been days since he last slept, and he was exhausted, but he didn’t let her hand go, though they didn’t speak for the rest of the journey. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Gu Mingchen had fallen asleep when they reached the military base. He opened his eyes and looked at Bai Rong in panic. He thought she was gone, but she was still there, sleeping, her head leaning against the window. She looked lonely.

His heart ached for her. Gu Mingchen took off his suit and covered her with it. Then, she woke up and looked outside. “We’re here, huh?”

“You can go back to sleep after this. You look tired.” He rubbed her face.

Bai Rong stared down, keeping her silence. The car went in and stopped in Gu Mingchen’s yard.

An orderly came to open the backseat’s door, and out came Gu Mingchen. Bai Rong came out from the other side.

“You’re back, Mingchen.” Zhou Hailan trotted to him with a smile and wrapped her arms around him. “Mr. Gu said you’ve gone through with the procedure to take me out, so I don’t have to go back to the lab alone anymore, right?”

Gu Mingchen peered at her in silence, his lips pursed, his face inscrutable.

Bai Rong looked at Zhou Hailan, who was hugging Gu Mingchen, and she stared down. They look like a perfect picture. Who am I to judge them? She shifted her gaze to Gu Mingchen’s house.

Gu Tianhang and Song Xiyu looked down at her like they were gods. She blinked at them, and her heart ached. She spent three years being bullied by Xiong Daini, though she didn’t need to deal with her father-in-law then. But after dating Gu Mingchen, his parents doubled down on her with the hardships.

At least Xiong Daini only treated her with disdain. She never introduced any other woman to her son, but Gu Mingchen’s parents did it.

Bai Rong took a deep breath and decided to stop struggling. “I’ll be taking my luggage now. Send someone to give me a ride, Mr. Gu.” She looked at Gu Mingchen.

Gu Mingchen looked at her, his fists clenched, his face tense. She smiled. He didn’t stop me.

That was how a love triangle worked. The moment the man hesitated, the one who looked independent would be hurt. He would think the softer one couldn’t live without him, while the independent one didn’t need him.

Since she was already the independent one, she had to go on no matter what, for nobody would help her even if she fell. She went into Gu Mingchen’s house without looking at his parents.

Song Xiyu followed her inside and mocked, “I told you Mingchen loves someone else, but you just had to be stubborn. Now that Hailan’s back, you should stop being the third wheel now.”

Bai Rong felt humiliated. When she stood against Song Xiyu, she remembered how dignified she was, but at that moment, she knew she was nothing but a clown to them. Nothing was left. Nothing but embarrassment. And that was thanks to Gu Mingchen.

She pretended not to hear it and unzipped her luggage. Once she confirmed everything was in there, she zipped it and stood up.

Song Xiyu was enraged by her arrogance, and she stood before Bai Rong. “Did you not hear me? Or are you putting on airs?”

“Mrs. Gu, I am leaving right now. Why are you stopping me? Do you want me to stay? I know, why don’t I stay the night then?” Bai Rong shot back coldly.

“Don’t be a homewrecker,” Song Xiyu warned her and stepped aside.

Bai Rong came out with her luggage in tow. The wheels screeched against the ground, keeping her from hearing anything she didn’t want to. When she came to the gates, she could see Gu Mingchen and Zhou Hailan standing together.
