You Owe Me, My Love

This was one of the most important reasons why she was willing to compromise with Gu Mingchen.

She still longed for something. No matter how deep down it was hidden, it still existed in her heart.

“Alright. Then we’ll play a card game. Do we draw the cards randomly?” Bai Rong clarified the rules.

Gu Mingchen nodded and told the soldier to grab a deck of cards.

He shuffled the cards and let Bai Rong pick them.

After Bai Rong drew a card, he drew one too.

Gu Mingchen was good at the game and barely lost.

Bai Rong was also very cool with her defeat and she gulped the alcohol down in a single breath.

He was very thoughtful and did not play each round consecutively. Instead, he let her eat some snacks first before continuing.

She ate and drank a lot.

Eventually, she got drunk.

When Bai Rong came out from the toilet, she was already unstable on her feet.

“One more time.” She said as she sat down beside Gu Mingchen, her eyes half-closed.

“No. You’ve drank enough. You’ll hurt your body if you keep drinking like this.” Asserted Gu Mingchen in a deep voice.

“Hah.” Bai Rong laughed and her eyes were starry. Straddling Gu Mingchen’s lap, she placed her hands on his shoulder naturally. “Are you worried about me?”

Gu Mingchen pursed his lips and did not say anything.

Her gaze swept over his face. “Gu Mingchen, if you haven’t forgotten about me, how would we be like now?”

Gu Mingchen realized that she was really drunk. Her face was flushing and even her smile was becoming silly.

“How would we be like?” Asked Gu Mingchen, following her train of thoughts.

Bai Rong broke into a smile and touched his soft lips tenderly with her middle finger. She stroked it with a lingering obsession, yet the words she said were very pessimistic. “We won’t be anything. I’m not your type. You like Zhou Hailan.”

Gu Mingchen frowned and grabbed her finger, which was moving rashly above his lips. “You know Zhou Hailan.”

Bai Rong nodded and tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

Zhou Hailan was his passionate love, yet also the thorn in his heart.
