You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 272 An Upsetting Surprise

Bai Rong boarded the train back to A City and looked out the window.

It was a sunny day. A profusion of exotic flowers could be seen on the vast field by the track.

Bai Rong’s lips curved upwards, forming a faint smile.

Su Xuyan, who couldn’t move his eyes away from her, couldn’t help but responded with a similar smile when he caught her response.

It was a blissful moment.

If I was aware of the affection I had for her back in the day, we would be living a happy life by one another’s side. Perhaps we were a happy family of four by now.

As he lost himself in a process of thought, he reached over and held her hand.

Bai Rong returned to her usual indifferent self and looked at him, asking in a callous tone, “What’s wrong?”

“Are you hungry? Shall we go grab something to eat in the eatery? I’m afraid you’re going to starve yourself again.” Su Xuyan brought her up from the seat.

When she heard him, she noticed she was a tad bit hungry. Therefore, she followed him and made their way to the eatery on the train.

Su Xuyan bought two prepacked lunch boxes and two bottles of coke to go along with their meal.

Once he returned and placed those in front of Bai Rong, she unpacked the meal and started savoring the food.

“Are you going to return to the research institute?” he asked nonchalantly.

“Mmm…” Bai Rong recalled she had many cases to sort out. She wouldn’t get to leave until she resolved the cases assigned to her by Mu Xiaosheng.

“I’ll get myself a nearby villa for your convenience! You don’t have to go through the hassle of traveling long distances anymore!”

Cough! Cough!

Su Xuyan opened a bottle of coke and handed it over to Bai Rong because she accidentally choked.
