You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 275

Chapter 275 I Love You

Bai Rong dropped by the nearby shopping mall and bought herself a pair of jeans, a baseball cap, and a black hoodie. Once she had the things she needed, she checked herself into a hotel room.

After she had her shower, she got herself changed into the new set of clothes she bought and put on the baseball cap and a pair of shades.

She deliberately left her bag behind. Once she retrieved the access card and some cash, she departed.

Instead of driving herself to the destination, she headed to the lobby and hailed a cab. “Please make a trip to Blue Sky Apartment.”

It would take about forty minutes for her to reach Blue Sky Apartment from the hotel she had checked herself into. By the time she reached the destination, Gu Mingchen had yet to arrive.

She stood right at the entrance in anticipation of his arrival. Half an hour later, a black Hummer showed up.

Gu Mingchen pulled over in front of her and alighted from the car.

She noticed he was there alone.

“Rong, what’s wrong?” Gu Mingchen asked concernedly and sized her up.

“Let’s talk about it once we’re inside.” Bai Rong looked in the direction of the house.

Gu Mingchen opened the door and showed her the way in.

After they walked into the apartment, Bai Rong took a deep breath before turning around. She looked at Gu Mingchen in the eyes and said, “I need you to de me a favor. If you’re willing to—”

As she had always been a proud woman, she couldn’t bring herself to finish her sentence. She didn’t expect she would have to sacrifice herself to procure other’s aid.

Casting a passionate gaze at Bai Rong, Gu Mingchen couldn’t move his eyes away from her. “What if I’m willing to?”

She avoided his gaze and recalled the fact the very moment they spoke, Liu Yan’s life was at stake.

Since her life was completely messed up, she wouldn’t get to live for long. At the very least, she should do something and save her friend.

On top of that, she had a thing for the man in front of him. It wouldn’t be intolerable to spend some time with him.

After she made up her mind, she raised her head and peered into Gu Mingchen’s eyes. “If you’re willing to do me the favor, I’ll return to you and stay by your side for three months. I promised you to conduct a psychological assessment for your soldiers. That will take about three months as well.”

Gu Mingchen raised her chin the moment she finished her sentence.

Bai Rong held her breath because she was extremely anxious.

He gently placed his lips on her velvety lips. A few seconds later, he looked at her intimately and said, “No matter what it is, I’ll be glad to do you the favor without requiring anything from you in return.”

Bai Rong’s heart started racing. She could barely pull herself together and felt her knees turning to jelly.

She finally figured out the reason her other self fell head over heels in love with him—he had always been a charismatic man.

Nonetheless, as a jinxed woman, she considered herself unworthy of the man because she was afraid of dragging him down with her.

Bai Rong shrugged him off and stated, “Why don’t you hear me out and give it a thought before making the decision?”

“What is it about?” He asked in a determined tone as though he was ready to offer his help no matter what was her request.

Considering the fact the favor she needed would impact the man’s future, she hesitated and couldn’t bring herself to share her concerns with him.

Liu Yan and Gu Mingchen were the ones she valued the most in her life, yet she would have to forsake one of them for the other’s sake.

Therefore, she hesitated and decided to give it another thought.

Bai Rong turned over to avoid Gu Mingchen’s gaze.

She grabbed her chin and peered at her in the eyes with a determined look, asserting in a domineering manner, “Have faith in me!”

He has always been a reliable and capable man. Although I have faith in him, I don’t want to expose him to excessive risk that may cost him his future for my desires.

On the other hand, Liu Yan is my only friend… I-I can’t possibly leave her alone when her life is at stake…

“Gu Mingchen, what’s going to happen if you offend the commander-in-chief?” Bai Rong tried to beat around the bush.

Eventually, they took things to the next level and started rubbing their bodies against each other.

Gu Mingchen switched on the air-conditioner and had his clothes removed by Bai Rong.

He returned the favor and removed her clothes and pants in return. In no time, he brought her to the couch.

Staring at his abysmal pair of eyes, she got anxious and grasped his arms when he was about to reach her.

As he looked at her in the eyes, she caught the reflection of her vulnerable and confused self in his eyes.

Am I doing the right thing? Is this an attempt to salvage whatever that’s left, or am I getting myself involved in another complicated situation? Can I redeem myself and stop myself from falling into the abyss?

Bai Rong was afraid because she had no answers to the questions she had in mind.

Gu Mingchen would kiss her gently, yet he stopped holding back and went all out when they were in bed.

She felt pain and pleasure. It took her some time, but she got used to it after a while and learned to enjoy herself.

Eventually, she stopped overthinking things and couldn’t feel the pain anymore.

Time was essential because she had limited time with the man. Thus, she needed to appreciate her days with him.

She wanted to show him the best side of her. That was her final wish before her death. Once she achieved it, she could leave everything behind in peace.

When the man brought himself away from her, she would wrap her arms around his waist and place her head on the man’s shoulder.

Holding one another in the arms firmly, they could feel one another’s heartbeat, yet they couldn’t see the other person’s expression.

Bai Rong’s tears streamed down her cheeks because she couldn’t bear to leave Gu Mingchen just yet.

She started hypnotizing herself and warned her to pull herself together, keeping the affection she had for him to herself. It would be better for her to seal her memories, so she could carry out the designated task without fail as an indifferent agent.

Does that mean I have never once succeeded in severing our ties? Is that the reason I can’t seem to keep the memories aside?
