You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 352 Do You Like Me

“I got it. Keep this strictly between the two of us,” Gu Mingchen warned in a low voice. At that moment, he spotted Wu Nian walking toward him from the corner of his eye. He turned to look at her, his gaze dark and cold.

Wu Nian was on her way to the toilet when she locked eyes with Gu Mingchen. However, she didn’t feel the need to make small talk, so she ignored him.

She was washing her hands when she saw Gu Mingchen behind her. Meanwhile, he just stood there, staring intensely at her in silence.

Wu Nian averted her gaze and continued to wash her hands. She stepped out of the toilet after, still ignoring Gu Mingchen.

“Can we talk?” Gu Mingchen finally spoke as she walked past him.

“Sorry, but I’m busy,” Wu Nian retorted.

Gu Mingchen’s voice was stern and cold when he continued, “If you’re trying to play hard to get, I can tell you now it doesn’t work for me. You won’t get another chance if you walk away now.”

Wu Nian merely let out a faint smirk before strutting away.

Gu Mingchen watched her go, a contemplative frown forming on his face.

When Wu Nian got back to the table, Aaron had already filled her glass with wine.

She raised her glass and swirled the wine. Her gaze was fixated on it as she seemed to be in deep contemplation.

“What’s wrong? You don’t look too happy. Did you bump into someone earlier?” Aaron asked with concern.

Wu Nian threw a side-eye at Aaron as she emptied her glass of wine in one slow gulp.

As the alcohol kicked in, Wu Nian’s eyes became glazed, and her cheeks flushed. “Mr. Aaron, do you like me? Or rather, am I your type?” she teased.

“You’re the most straightforward woman I’ve ever met.” Aaron smiled warmly. “Yes, I like you. You’re exactly my type.”

“Then let’s date.”
