You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 386 I Did Not Ask For Your Opinion

“You…” Wu Nian wanted to ask how Gu Mingchen knew she had gone to the top of the building.

Then, she thought that he might have come here on a whim, too. That their meeting was purely a coincidence.

“Fancy meeting you here,” she proclaimed.

“Not by chance. I’ve been looking for you,” Gu Mingchen confessed.

“Oh?” Wu Nian muttered in surprise.

“I watched you come up here. It should be impossible for Su Xuyan to compete with you now. Stephen is staying at this hotel. So, just spend the night here. Tomorrow, Stephen will paint a portrait for Mo Xue. He’ll bring you along,” Gu Mingchen instructed.

“Oh, thank you,” Wu Nian responded.

“If all goes well, you’ll be signing a contract with Mo Xue the day after tomorrow. I’ll have a lawyer go with you to avoid any unwanted incidents,” Gu Mingchen added.

Wu Nian had an odd feeling in her gut. “If everything goes the way it should, you should be the one who gets the partnership. So I’m curious, Mr. Gu. Why are you handing it over to me?”

“Haven’t we agreed that I’ll let you have this partnership and that I’ll help you ensure its success? You’ve always had a bad memory,” Gu Mingchen said, devoid of any shame or guilt.

She remembered that part, but she was unsure why Gu Mingchen had been willing to give her the job. Is it just so I could work for you?

If she gave too much thought to it, she might get the wrong idea.

“You…” she began, working up a wry smile, “You don’t think I’m Bai Rong, do you?”

“If you’re Bai Rong, you would have told me. After all, we have experienced life and cheated death together. We had some good times. And when we separated, it was by force. I don’t see any reason why you won’t tell me that you’re Bai Rong,” Gu Mingchen answered knowingly.

Wu Nian lowered her eyes. “If your wife is still alive, and sees you so eagerly waiting for her to return, she’ll definitely come back to you.”

“You’re really hypocritical,” Gu Mingchen blurted.

Wu Nian did not respond to that.

She looked at him with a guilty conscience, her brows in a twist.
