You Owe Me, My Love

Bai Rong came back to her senses and glanced at Gu Mingchen.

She was wondering why they couldn’t end up together after going through so many hardships. Was it because I didn’t fulfill the promise I made to Tang Xiaojiu?

After I leave, will Gu Mingchen end up with Zhou Hailan and forget about me?

Where will Tian and I go after we change our identities?

Her mind was abuzz with thoughts.

“I was thinking about Tangqian Village and got lost in my thoughts,” Bai Rong answered with a grin.

Gu Mingchen chuckled, his gaze full of adoration. “I didn’t expect my mom would agree so quickly.”

“Your mom loves you dearly. Three years ago, when your dad kidnapped me, she tried to stop it from happening. If it weren’t for her, I’d be dead by now. She’s not a wicked woman. It’s just that she thinks you deserve better.” Bai Rong seemed to have forgiven her.

“Time reveals a person’s heart. One day, they will realize your kindness and that you’re the perfect match for me.”

Bai Rong said nothing and hooked her arm around his.

If we have three months left, I’ll treasure every minute I spend with Gu Mingchen. That way, I won’t have regrets.

“Mingchen, I have a question for you. If you’re locked in a room for a few years and will be leaving soon, what will you pick if you’re allowed to bring one thing with you? Your choices are a teacup, your pet dog, diary, or a radio. What is your answer?” Bai Rong posed a question casually.

Gu Mingchen sensed something was wrong. “What do the choices signify? You can be direct with me. I’ll tell you anything you want to know except for classified military information, of course.”

“I was just asking,” replied Bai Rong with a shrug.

Gu Mingchen pressed on insistently. “We’ve known each other for six years. You should know me well. There’s no need to sound me out. Come on. What happened? You seem preoccupied.”

“Mingchen, that was just a hypothetical question. If you had to pick between your child and me one day, who will you pick?” Bai Rong inquired.
