You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 283 We’re In The Same Boat

She continued sobbing for over ten minutes. When she finally exited the stall, her face was full of tears and snot. Her eyes were swollen and red. In a daze, she walked out and headed to the sink to wash her face.

Looking up, she stared at herself in the mirror and took a deep breath. Touching her own face in the mirror, she uttered gently, “Don’t be sad. Gu Mingchen is gone, but I’ll always be with you to protect you. From today onward, no one can harm you.”

A cleaner walked in and glanced at her strangely.

Bai Rong shot her a glare and straightened her back before walking out.

As the door slammed shut, she heard the cleaner muttering, “She must be crazy.”

Immediately, Bai Rong’s body trembled profusely. Pushing the door open, she glared at the cleaner and demanded, “What did you say?”

As Bai Rong was furious, the cleaner denied having said that. “I said nothing. What’s wrong?”

“If I hear you saying that again, I’ll sue you for libel,” Bai Rong warned her and spun on her heels to leave. She strode back to room 203 angrily.

The breakfast spread that Su Xuyan ordered earlier had been served. He wasn’t eating and was focused on his phone until Bai Rong came in. Spotting her reddened eyes, he inquired, “Did you cry?”

“Don’t bother. It’s just how I vent my emotions. I’ve accepted the truth after crying.” Bai Rong pulled out a chair and sat across from him.

Su Xuyan gave a half-smile and placed his phone on the table. He inquired, “What have you accepted?”

“If I want to survive, I need to submit to you,” Bai Rong replied, her face devoid of expression.

Su Xuyan still had his doubts. “Are you sure?”

“You cannot falsify the truth, nor verify lies. Let’s finish breakfast and rest at home. From now on, we’re in the same boat.” Bai Rong declared sternly.

Su Xuyan entwined his fingers with hers.

It seemed that he was pleased to hear her say she’d fight by his side.
