You Owe Me, My Love

“Okay,” he responded.

It was just a simple word, but Bai Rong felt as if it had turned into crashing waves that splashed against a large boulder in the sea.

The trust he had given her, after numerous hardships they had been through, warmed her heart.

Her usual blank expression cracked as she smiled gently at his word. She lowered her gaze and slowly leaned against the headboard.

“Do you want to lie down?” Gu Mingchen immediately stretched out his arm to get a pillow.

Smiling, she stopped his hand and asked, “Have you had dinner? I’ll cook for you later.”

“You’re sick now. How can I let you cook for me? Let’s go out for dinner. Do you have anything you want to eat?” He stroked her hand and gazed adoringly at her.

Bai Rong thought for a moment before saying, “When I was studying in the United States, the foods I missed the most were braised chicken, roast duck, and steamed fish head. I remember we have a famous restaurant near my university. Would you like to have dinner there with me?”

He beamed. “I like the foods you’ve just said as well. By the way, do you know what’s my favorite dish?”

A sheepish grin appeared on her face as she shook her head in response.

Gu Mingchen was not a picky eater when he was with Bai Rong; he would eat whatever she had prepared.

“I only know that you can’t eat lobsters because you’re allergic to them,” she replied.

“Well, my favorite dish is braised pork. It’s so nice to be eaten with rice. However, I rarely eat it when I was at the military base because I don’t want other people to know about it. Do you know how to cook braised pork?”

Wow, I did not expect that answer. I thought he would like expensive delicacies, instead of an ordinary dish.
