You Owe Me, My Love

If the marriage was fated to be mismatched from the beginning, one must not continue to force it. The result will only be pain and exhaustion.

She and Gu Mingchen started off well and she hoped that it would carry on like that.

“One for you and one for me. Keep it somewhere safe.” Bai Rong happily tucked her identification card, passport and marriage license into her bag.

She was so over the moon that it made Gu Mingchen’s heart soften.

This woman, who started out as a stranger, was now his wife, someone whom he needed to cherish and protect for the rest of his life.

The thought of her as his wife made him smile. “Shouldn’t we keep them together?”

Bai Rong smiled in agreement and put her marriage license back into the gift bag. “Sorry to trouble you, my lord.”

Gu Mingchen cleared his throat and replied as chivalrously as he could, “It’s no trouble at all.”

Bai Rong cracked up again.

She remembered their early days, where she used to badger him with questions and he would reply each with the same seriousness he did today.

He had not changed at all. Rather, it was her who had changed considerably.

Bai Rong felt tears of happiness well up.

Gu Mingchen noticed and frowned. “What’s wrong?”

She put her arms around him and hid her face in his embrace, choking out, “Your dream was right. I was looking for you… For a long time.”

Gu Mingchen’s eyes drifted down and he rested his hand on her back, and softly whispered into her ear, “Bai Rong, I’m back.”

“Yes.” She wiped her tears away.

“I used to be so desperate to recover my lost memories. The more desperate I got, the more tired I became too. Now that I have you, I no longer care about those. The doctor did say that I might never get them back.” Gu Mingchen explained earnestly.

“I’ll try and treat you with hypnosis.”
