You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 309 You Are My One And Only

“If you die ahead of me, I will never do the same! I’ll live a wonderful life and move on from you! Perhaps I’ll start a new life with another man!” Bai Rong tried to provoke him.

“As long as you’re living the life you seek, it’s fine. Please drop by my grave and pay tribute at least once a year. I need to know you’re living a great life without me,” Gu Mingchen requested in a gentle tone.

Her heart wrenched because of the man’s unrequited love and selfless character. He couldn’t be bothered by the unjust he had gone through and asked for nothing in return for his love.

She didn’t want him dead. To be precise, she couldn’t bear to leave him just yet.

Perhaps the afterlife was never a thing. As soon as he was dead, there would be nothing left.

No one would remember him. Instead, others might make fun of him whenever they mentioned him.

She lowered her head and tried her best to suppress the urge to cry. Her hands balled into fists while she started shivering due to the emotions she felt.

He cradled the shivering woman in his arms. “Why are you making a fuss out of a theoretical topic? I’ll always be here for you, okay? In the future, we’ll start a family and be the happiest great, great, great grandparents on this planet.”

She closed her eyes and held him firmly in between her arms. They stood right there with one another in their arms for five consecutive minutes.

Shortly, she stopped herself from crying and moved away from him when she calmed herself down. She wiped her tears dry and decided to stop trying her luck in the future.

After she figured out the sort of affection he had for her, she decided to stop asking him to do her the favor of living without her. As she couldn’t change his mind, she could only do what she felt right.

“Gu Mingchen, do you prefer having the old me by your side?” Bai Rong asked.

Gu Mingchen chuckled. The helpless man asked rhetorically, “What do you mean? I have never considered you a different person.”

She directed another question at him. “Does that mean Bai Rong is the person you’re in love with?”

“Rong, I’m not sure if we’re defining things the same way, but I want you to know I have never considered you a different person. You have always behaved and carried yourself the way you used to. In fact, the way you think, the way you speak, and the way you act have always been the same! If there’s something about you that’s different, you no longer have to rely on pills to fall asleep. In short, you have always been you. You’re the one and only woman I love.” Gu Mingchen confessed his affection for her.
