You Owe Me, My Love

She took over the towel and replied, “I don’t want to get married.”

“Huh?” Gu Mingchen paused before saying, “Oh right.”

He took out a jewelry box from his pocket and went down on one knee. Then, he opened the box that contained a diamond ring.

“Bai Rong, will you marry me?” The man said sincerely.

The light from the ceiling casted a faint glow upon his face that created a mesmerizing halo effect.

The diamond ring was also shining brightly in the light.

Bai Rong clenched her fists to stop herself from taking the ring that she really wanted. She squatted down on the floor to face Gu Mingchen.

“Did anything happen?” He realized something was not right.

“Gu Mingchen, I feel that we are progressing too quickly. One month is not enough for us to fully understand each other. Besides, whenever I think about Tang Xiaojiu’s death, I can’t help but feel that we are partially responsible for it. I want to find the culprit behind the massacre before thinking about our marriage.”

The man’s eyes darkened. “Is it because you want to find the murderer first or is it because you don’t like me?”

His question was straight to the point. Bai Rong’s eyes glistened with tears as she looked towards the floor.

She could not tell him that she liked him as it would bring him harm. But it would hurt him more if she said that she did not like him.

Not getting a response from the woman, Gu Mingchen’s face turned cold. “If I say, I will have to marry someone else if we can’t get married. Will your decision still be the same?”

Bai Rong creased her brows.

She knew very well what he meant.

The reason he was in a rush to finalize their marriage was to dash the Su Family’s hopes. He was prepared to bear any consequences.

If Gu Mingchen did not get married, he might not be able to handle the subsequent events.

He would be burning his own bridge.

Bai Rong did not want him to do that. “It’s too fast.”
