You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 216

She did not want to look back as she walked indifferently towards the guard.

She had no idea how she had come out from Gu Mingchen’s place. The only thing she knew was that she had walked hastily with her back straight, trying her best not to look pathetic. Even as she lost her relationship and had her heart broken, she did not want to lose her dignity.

A car pulled over next to her, and Lieutenant Song appeared behind the window. “Chief asked me to send you.”

She did not want to stay here any longer, not even for a second. So, she promptly opened the door and put her suitcase on the backseats before sliding into the car. As she closed her eyes and rested her back against the backrest, she said, “Please bring me to Shuiyue International and wake me up when we arrive.”

“Noted.” Lieutenant Song answered.

Gu Mingchen stood by the window and watched broodingly as Bai Rong entered the car and left.

Just then, his phone rang.

It was a series of numbers, but he could remember that it was the number of the director of the Civil Affairs Bureau. He answered the call gloomily, “What is it?”

“Um, Chief, the marriage certificate for you and your wife has been replaced. You can come and collect it whenever you’re free,” the director said apprehensively.

“Didn’t you say we need to retake the photograph?” Gu Mingchen was astonished; his eyes were filled with uncontrollable excitement.

“It was supposed to be like that because all your information was lost as the marriage certificate was gone. But a colleague of mine secretly duplicated the photograph of you and your wife. She didn’t mean any harm; she just thought that both of you looked so good-looking. I’m sorry for her wrongdoing.”

The photograph was so important to him that he could close his eyes to the employee’s fault. “Is the information keyed in now?”

“The colleague thought both of you were celebrities and she even made a copy of your household register. I’ll definitely give her strict punishment. So, Chief, now that your information has been recorded into the system, you and your wife are legally married. The status is displayed on the official government website too,” the director explained.

Gu Mingchen frowned and stared ahead as the image of her leaving unswervingly flashed through his mind.

I want to be with her. ”Send me the marriage certificate to my military base now. Call me when you arrive.”

As soon as he hung up the call, Zhou Hailan opened the door and came into the room.

She smiled brightly and excitedly said, “Chen, don’t I already have the title of ‘lieutenant’? Uncle Gu asked me to come to the Special Forces Military Base to be a drill instructor, but I’d have to start as an assistant drill instructor to adapt to the job first. I think it’s a good idea, but I have to ask your opinion first. What do you think?”

Looking at her gloved hands, he did not think so. “The training in the Special Forces Military Base is extremely strict. Most of the time, even the instructors have to accompany the recruits outside regardless of weather conditions. Now that you’re still recovering, this kind of harsh training is definitely not suitable for you. However, If you really want to find a job, I can assign you a clerical job.”

“Would it be at your military base?” Zhou Hailan asked.

“I’ll see first.”

It meant that she might not be assigned to the Special Forces Military Base.

So, she tugged on his arm lightly and pleaded, “It’s okay. I can persevere with the training. Chen, I want to be with you. If I can’t even overcome the harsh training, how could I overcome greater challenges in the future? Chen, please let me stay in the Special Forces Military Base. No matter how hard it is, I can live through it.”

A hint of slyness appeared in Gu Mingchen’s eyes. “Are you sure you can overcome all the difficulties?”

Song Xiyu glanced at Gu Mingchen who was standing behind Zhou Hailan.

Following her gaze, Zhou Hailan saw Gu Mingchen and ran over. “Excuse me, have you seen Chen? He is very tall, about 185cm. And he is quite handsome, too. He works in the Special Forces. Actually, he’s my boyfriend, but I can’t find him anymore.”

Gu Mingchen furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at Zhou Hailan who had gone crazy again.

“Mingchen, what’s happening to Hailan?” Song Xiyu asked, completely baffled by her strange behavior.

“Mingchen? You’re Chen? Why did u pretend not to know me? Is it because of my burn scars? So, you don’t love me anymore?” She held his arm as tears streamed down her face. “Since you don’t want me anymore, I also don’t want to live anymore. Why am I still alive?”

As soon as she finished speaking, she ran towards the wall, trying to end her life.

Seeing this, Gu Mingchen instantly grabbed her and she was thrown into his arms from the force he exerted.

She started to sob and pleaded with him, “Chen, I don’t want to lose you. Please don’t abandon me. You’re the only one I have. Without your love, I have nothing to live for.”

Instead of acknowledging what she said, Gu Mingchen stared into the distance and said, “I’ll let someone come and fetch you back. You’re tired. Go back and have a rest.

“No, I’m not tired. I want to stay here with you,” she said, hugging him tightly.

He felt a wave of irritability.
