You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 373

Chapter 373 Why Risk Your Life

Wu Nian’s heart skipped a beat. Her breaths came in rapid, shallow bursts as she explained, “I honestly didn’t injure myself on purpose! I didn’t see someone shooting at me from the side. I’m not that foolish.”

“Then stop doing foolish things! Why did you risk your life to come back?” Gu Mingchen roared. His eyes were bloodshot from the pressure accumulating within him, threatening to explode.

Heaven only knew the fear he had just experienced. When Gu Mingchen caught sight of Wu Nian behind the wheel of the vehicle that was charging in, his mind had gone numb with terror.

Wu Nian lowered her eyes. Her long eyelashes hid whatever expression was dancing therein.

Gu Mingchen sighed inwardly. Why on earth did Wu Nian risk her life to come back?

She could easily have fled with Liu Yan!

“I…” Wu Nian began falteringly.

“I’m not interested in your explanation,” Gu Mingchen cut in with a low voice. He then stood up and looked back down at the woman.

He knew he would not be satisfied with whatever her reply was.

Coldly, he turned and walked out the door. He stood beneath the old locust tree and lit a cigarette, his hands still trembling from his earlier agitation. He inhaled deeply, then expelled a thick cloud of smoke.

I’ve finally found her after so long! After so long…

“Can I have a joint?” Stephen suddenly appeared beside Gu Mingchen, interrupting his thoughts.

Gu Mingchen passed the man a cigarette. Stephen lit it and took a deep breath, then peered at Gu Mingchen through the halo of smoke. “Do you know why I stopped painting ten years ago?” he asked.

Gu Mingchen glanced at Stephen. “You lacked inspiration? Or did you no longer need to use art to express your emotions? Did your feelings diminish with time?”
