You Owe Me, My Love

“She’s already dead.” Gu Mingchen said in a low voice. His expression was completely blank.

Bai Rong’s eyes reddened with tears.

She knew many married couples who had faced some problems in their marriage. Although they had initially gotten married because of their love for each other, the mundaneness of daily life had turned each other’s strengths into weaknesses. From there, arguments had arisen, causing freedoms to be restricted.

The couples had fought with each other and tried to hurt each other, until the conflicts got too much and destroyed any remaining love they shared. In the end, the marriages came crashing down and the couples had separated.

The lucky ones parted amicably, though most would just continue on as strangers.

However, there were those who henceforth treated each other like archenemies.

Because they had once loved each other, those memories were all the more grating now. Even if their relationship had been happy once, both recalled those times with nothing but bitterness.

Hence, the living Bai Rong could never win against a dead girl who was hidden away in Gu Mingchen’s memories.

When Zhou Hailan died, she had left in his memory the most beautiful impression of her.

She was sunny, outgoing, brilliant, beautiful and carefree.

Zhou Hailan had even died because of him. In his heart, she was a memory nobody would be able to erase. She would always be a girl that he could never have no matter how hard he tried.

On the other hand, Bai Rong was full of flaws. The longer Gu Mingchen spent with her, the better he would think of his ex-girlfriend.

Bai Rong didn’t want to get married to Gu Mingchen and then have to see their marriage head down a path of self-destruction.

More importantly, she couldn’t stand it if the man she loved had another woman in his heart.

She would much rather give up on a man like this.

“Let’s eat.” Bai Rong dodged the subject and walked into a French restaurant.

Her phone started to ring. She looked down and saw that Liu Yan was calling her.

“Rong, I’m in trouble.” Liu Yan said, sobbing.

Bai Rong’s heart skipped a beat and she asked worriedly, “What happened to you?”

“Yesterday, I…I…” Liu Yan didn’t know how to explain. “Where are you now? I’m at your hotel. Let’s talk when we meet.”
