You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 396 I Like That Man So Much

Wu Nian widened her eyes as she remembered Su Xuyan was still standing behind her. With no time to explain in detail, she hurried over to drag Gu Mingchen away.

The latter flung her hand away with a cold expression.

His actions startled Wu Nian.

She knew that Gu Mingchen was upset as he strode forward with a sullen face.

He gritted his teeth and grabbed her by the arm. Turning into a corner, they walked in the opposite direction where there were two security guards on duty.

Gu Mingchen presented the traveling documents for the guards to scan before letting them in.

He remained silent throughout the process and continued ahead with his hand still holding hers.

Seeing that there were not many people in the area, Wu Nian figured it was the passage to access the private jet.

He pulled her into the lounge. Releasing his grip, he stared at her sternly and then commanded in a low voice, “Tell me the reason why you’ve come to Lightspring.”

Wu Nian looked him in the eyes.

Since I’m all alone, it’s best I tell him the truth. Otherwise, I’ll need to tell more lies to cover up and it’ll end up with me getting caught in my own web. After all, it’s easy to spot any logic errors if I’m not careful in faking them.

“Since Aaron and I have started a relationship, I felt that it’s better to speak face to face as we end it,” Wu Nian explained softly.

Gu Mingchen’s gaze gradually became gentle. “You could have told me that you guys were breaking up. Do you know how worried I am about you?”

“I did tell you about it yesterday. I also said that we shouldn’t get in touch until we get to Pillere,” Wu Nian clarified.

“So, it’s my fault then?” he responded with a question. His gaze was still as intense as ever.

Wu Nian stepped forward and hugged Gu Mingchen. Resting her head on his chest allowed her to feel his body’s warmth. She said gently, “I’m surprised that you came looking for me in Lightspring. I think you must have really liked me to come rushing all the way here. However, I need my own space and I don’t like feeling restrained.”

Gu Mingchen lowered his head to look at her. “I’m not trying to control you. I just want to know what’s in your mind.”
