You Owe Me, My Love

Bai Rong kept gazing ahead and did not move. A glint of sorrow flashed past her indifferent eyes that encompassed all the hurt and unjust she had experienced, and darkness ensued.

However, as Gu Mingchen was hugging her, he could not see her pain.

He released his embrace and looked at her. It was a look of love, helplessness, apology and pain.

“Sorry.” He said, choking up.

Bai Rong downcast her eyes and her long lashes covered the windows to her soul.

“I won’t forgive you.” She replied softly.

Gu Mingchen was stunned for a moment. It was a bitter pill to swallow.

He was willing to bear her hatred and grievances. “OK, my life is yours. You can claim it anytime.”

“Leave.” Bai Rong said unfeelingly.

The man creased his brows tightly and remained on the spot without moving a single step.

“Leave.” Bai Rong repeated. This time, she lifted her head and looked at him.

The look of her eyes was resolute and chilled to the bone.

There was nothing else Gu Mingchen could say. He turned around and left.

“Rong, did you see that? His left pinkie finger was also gone. He must have done it to himself for you.” Liu Yan said as she choked up.

How could Bai Rong not have seen it?

She noticed it the moment he walked in.

But what could she do?

She knew the both of them had experienced hell for the past seven days.

Gu Mingchen had successfully negotiated for an engagement instead of marriage.

She did not blame him as that was the best he could have done.

She could only blame the fact that the both of them were still too weak.
