You Owe Me, My Love

“Should I send you to the military base first?” Bai Rong asked Gu Mingchen before they set off.

“Let’s go to your place first. I’ll drive. The wound on my arm has almost healed anyway.” Gu Mingchen said in a deep voice as he hopped into the driver’s seat.

Bai Rong passed him the key and sat next to him.

It was almost noon when they reached Liu Yan’s apartment.

After Bai Rong alighted, Gu Mingchen got out of the car as well.

“Aren’t you going to invite me up?” Gu Mingchen asked.

Bai Rong felt bad to reject since he had already asked. She wondered if Liu Yan was at home.

Bai Rong opened the door and did not see her friend.

She was glad that she had cleaned up the place previously. At least it didn’t look too messy.

While Bai Rong went off to find a pair of slippers for Gu Mingchen to wear, he picked up a book that was on the table.

Bai Rong wanted to snatch it from him, but it was too late.

She was studying Russian and had copied his notes.

“Errr… I accidentally dropped your book in the water and the pages got all crumpled up. I wanted to make a proper copy before returning it to you.” Bai Rong tried to explain.

“I heard that you are learning Russian?” Gu Mingchen asked, as he slowly flipped through the notes that she had copied.

Bai Rong’s handwriting was neater than his. Each stroke was clear and the words looked orderly.

Her handwriting reflected her personality.

She was traditional, serious, rigid, proper…

Bai Rong guessed that it was Liu Yan who told him, and there was nothing for her to hide. “I am intending to.” she admitted.

“It’s not easy for you to self-learn. I’ll teach you.” Gu Mingchen said in his deep voice and sat down on the sofa.

Bai Rong sat next to him.

She was feeling quite awkward. “Why did you learn Russian?”

His eyes darkened, and said, “We had an operation in Russia and got a local translator to help. But the translator intentionally made a wrong translation and caused the death of one of our comrades. From that day onward, I started learning all kinds of languages. How about you? Why do you want to learn Russian?”

“I just felt like learning, I guess.” Bai Rong did not want to tell him the real reason.
