You Owe Me, My Love

You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 85

When Bai Rong woke up the next morning, Gu Mingchen was no longer there but there was a note on the table.

Something came up at the military base, so I’ll need to leave first. Breakfast is on the table; if it’s cold, heat it up before eating.” Bai Rong smiled when she looked at the note.

His handwriting was strong and consistent with his tough image, beautiful, sharp, and dynamic. When she finished reading, she stuffed the note into the Russian language book.

She might be far away from Gu Mingchen now, but she never stopped moving forward one step at a time.

By learning what he learnt; understanding his point of view; love what he loved, perhaps they would have more things in common to talk about and she could stay longer with him too.

After washing up, Bai Rong walked out of her room and was greeted by the sight of dumplings, tofu soup, and fried dough on the table prepared by the attentive man. She took a sip of the tofu soup; it was still hot.

There was a knock on the door. Bai Rong opened the door cautiously and immediately received a slap from Xiong Daini.

“B*tch, are you the one who made Xuyan take the blame and resigned?” Her ex mother-in-law said angrily.

A sharp glint flashed across her eyes. She didn’t think Xiong Daini had any right to hit or scold her because what happened to Su Xuyan was simply what he deserved. Moreover, the hurt they’ve caused her was far greater than those she brought about.

Bai Rong returned the slap to Xiong Daini. “Who are you calling b*tch?”

“I’m calling you!” Xiong Daini blurted out while losing her composure.

Bai Rong twitched the corners of her mouth and said, “Sorry, you’re not welcomed here.”

Xiong Daini realized then that Bai Rong had been playing tricks on her and said sarcastically, “You thought that by hooking up with Gu Mingchen, you can force Xuyan to divorce you. Let me tell you something, you will never be able to get your way. He has agreed to marry Wanning and they will get engaged soon.”

Hearing those words from the crazy woman, Bai Rong was stunned for a moment. Gu Mingchen was still sleeping with her last night and had even bought her breakfast, why would he get engaged with Su Wanning?

“If you’re done here, I’m going to have breakfast now. Walk yourself out.” Bai Rong closed the door.

Xiong Daini knocked the door and said contemptuously, “Are you seriously thinking that Gu Mingchen likes you? He just sees you as a lonely, pitiful woman and he’s just playing with you. Since you are just a b*tch who doesn’t want money, the only thing you’ve left is your pretty looks.”

“So you’re saying that I’m not a b*tch if I’m a gold digger? I really couldn’t fathom your values. Also, it actually reflects really badly on you while you belittle and slander others.” Bai Rong spoke bluntly.

“What a sharp tongue! Let me tell you, Bai Rong, you will have all the time in the world to cry in the future; I can even make it happen now. Do you believe it?” Xiong Daini threatened.

“If you want to make me cry, will you change your mind if I beg you not to?” Bai Rong asked a rhetorical question and chuckled, as if she had seen through everything, “Since nothing I do will be able to change your mind, why should I even bother trying?”

“I’ll never forgive you for hurting my son.” Xiong Daini said arrogantly.

“You can only see that I’ve hurt your son, but have you even considered the fact that your son had also hurt me? Everything that was exposed online are facts. As a woman yourself, how would you feel if your husband did those things to you?” Bai Rong squinted coldly and said.

Xiong Daini folded her arms and said sarcastically, “You should blame yourself for your incompetence. How could you blame the man when you were not able to keep him? Bai Rong, just how shameless can you be? You didn’t even scrutinize the reason for your failure, so where did you even find the courage to blame him?”

Bai Rong sneered, “According to your logic, the reason Su Xuyan couldn’t keep me was because of his inability. So how did you have the nerves to question me?”

“That’s totally different! A man having multiple women is called free-spirited; a woman having multiple men is called lascivious.” Xiong Daini yelled in an uncalm manner.

“Well, I’m sorry. Male privilege is not my view of life. Feel free to make me cry; I’ll just despise you, that’s all.” Bai Rong said and slammed the door impolitely.

She continued to have her breakfast but had lost her appetite. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

There were people whom she told herself not to bother with, not to get angry because they were not worth her time; but she was still upset.

At that moment, Bai Rong’s phone rang. It was an unknown number, so she rejected the call. But it soon rang again and it was the same number.

She took a deep breath and answered. “Bai Rong, this is Su Wanning.” Su Wanning said in a seemingly good mood and laughed.

“I don’t think there’s a need for us to be in contact.”

“Mingchen already agreed to marry me. I’ll send you the invitation when the wedding date is set. Haha.” Su Wanning continued speaking.

Bai Rong hung up the call immediately. She went to work without eating anything; The feeling of restlessness occupied her the whole morning.

Even though she trusted Gu Mingchen, those fake stories told by different people still made her jittery.

Liu Yan pushed the door open with dark circles under her eyes and smiled ambiguously, “How did it go for you and Gu Mingchen yesterday?”

“You were the one who told Gu Mingchen that I was divorced, right?” Bai Rong asked helplessly.

She was her only friend. An idiotic one somemore.

“Hehehe. Gu Mingchen is a powerful man. News of your divorce won’t slip past him, will it?” Liu Yan said ambiguously.

“Things between Su Xuyan and I are still not 100% cleared.” Bai Rong let out a deep sigh.

She was still under the man’s influence because of her friend’s video recording. She had to go to him whenever he requested her to. Only when she got the recording back would she feel safe.

“Right. I’m here to tell you that the military base had sent a document to my father, stating that it is the application for staff here to be a doctor in the Special Forces and you were appointed. Gu Mingchen is the real man. Every female doctor is envious but me.” Liu Yan said with a smile.

“There’s nothing to be envious about. I still don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse.” Bai Rong said rationally.

Liu Yan tapped on her friend’s shoulder, “Don’t worry, I’ll be there with you,” Liu Yan said, to Bai Rong’s surprise.

“There are two vacancies. Since my dad is the director and considering my special relationship with you, he has to do me this favor somehow. Hahahaha! There are a lot of brave men in there and countless officers. In order for me to find my lifetime partner, my dad agreed without saying anything. Rong, see how loyal I am to you.”

Bai Rong became calmer knowing that she would not be alone as Liu Yan would be by her side. Therefore, she felt that it was worthwhile for her to make sacrifices for her loyal friend.

“Thank you, Yan.” Bai Rong said earnesty.

“Hehe. What are you thanking me for? I did a thorough analysis before making that decision. First of all, I’m there to find a suitable candidate for marriage. Secondly, working in the Special Forces, I’ll be considered as an officer too. On that account, I can receive a professional title, high wages and special authority. Thirdly, it’d be an easy job. We will have a lot of spare time, unlike here. I’m so occupied here, so I will definitely go there. Hehe.”

Upon hearing Liu Yan’s analysis, she seemed to have no reason not to go.
