You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 363 Goodbye

Seeing his behavior, Gu Mingchen’s frown deepened. After pondering for a second, he went over and abruptly grabbed Stephen’s arm.

Before he could speak, Stephen said anxiously, “Uh… She told me not to tell anyone about her crying over the painting. Since I’ve told you the secret, you shouldn’t be upset with me peeking at you in the past.”

“I’m not talking about that.” Gu Mingchen gave him a solemn look.

“Then, what is it? You scared the crap out of me,” Stephen said gaspingly. “Even the earth trembles when you get angry.”

“She and her friend came here to see you, too. They’re hoping you could help them to get the deal.”

“Don’t fret. First come, first served. Since I’ve promised you and you’ve done your part, I will definitely help you on this matter. I’m a man of my word,” Stephen stated, patting his chest.

“No. I want you to help her.” Gu Mingchen let go of his arm.

Stephen looked at the man in puzzlement. “This is something that can increase your annual income by a billion. Are you sure you want to give it away?”

“Just do as I say.” Gu Mingchen refused to provide any other explanation.

“You like that girl, don’t you? She’s Aaron’s girlfriend, though. Don’t forget that he is a nobleman of Ustrana. His family is as powerful as yours. Besides, I think Aaron is infatuated with her,” Stephen probed tentatively.

“I don’t think such a matter concerns you. Anyway, do you need any assistance for your daughters’ funeral?”

Stephen’s eyes dimmed as the thought of his two daughters crossed his mind. Shaking his head, he patted Gu Mingchen on the shoulder and went downstairs with his head down.

Later on, after everyone ate the noodles prepared by Xia He, Stephen distributed the rooms among them.
