You Owe Me, My Love

“I need to wrap things up. So give me three months,” Bai Rong insisted.

She had given up halfway on many things—her love for Su Xuyan, her love for Gu Mingchen, and her work.

After faking her death, she would no longer return to A City. Hence, she had to wrap things up and leave no regrets behind.

“Okay. I’ll give you three months’ time. I’ll send Tian away for now. Bai Rong, don’t do anything that you’ll regret or inform Gu Mingchen about this. Otherwise, there’s no turning back,” Su Xuyan reminded her.

Bai Rong inclined her head. “I’ll go back for now. Tomorrow, I’ll be going to Jadeborough.”

“Let me give you a ride back to the military base.” Su Xuyan opened the door.

“No need. I can drive back myself.” Bai Rong was staring at Tian, who was seated in his chair obediently.

He was gazing at them hopefully, afraid they would abandon him.

Bai Rong went over to him and kissed his forehead. “I have to attend to some matters. Tian, wait for me. A few months later, we will live together happily ever after.”

Tian jumped down from his chair and flung his little arms around her. “I have a mommy. No one will bully me from now on. Even if we have to live under the bridge, I am happy with that!”

Bai Rong caressed his head affectionately. “I’m not that poor. We won’t be living under a bridge. You’ll go to school and marry a wife later. You’ll be a useful person to society!”

“Alright. I’ll be a good boy as long as you promise not to abandon me,” Tian declared in his boyish voice.

Bai Rong pecked his forehead once again before heading toward the door.

Su Xuyan had booked a car ride for her.

She entered the car and left the villa.

Throughout the whole journey, Bai Rong leaned back in her seat and pondered over Su Xuyan’s words.

Three months later, Tian and I will lead a peaceful life. That might be the most blissful thing ever.
