You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 459 They Are Having Another Child

Bai Rong was downcast hearing Song Xiyu told her brother’s story. It reminded her of Yanny and her own past. The scariest thing in life was not beasts or wild animals, but the hearts of men.

Animals stopped killing once their hunger was satiated, but not demons as their appetite was big and bottomless. Tangqian Village’s massacre was a good example. “Did anyone investigate the case? After all, seventeen people lost their lives,” she asked gloomily.

“My family and my sister-in-law saw the incident as a shame, so they said he died falling down from the mountains when he went on a field trip. My brother died a man of legacy, but his death was brushed aside just like that.

Neither my parents nor my sister-in-law dared to probe further because they were afraid it would affect the family’s good name. I’m actually surprised Tianhang told Mingchen about this. But come to think of it, Tianhang and my brother were very close. They grew up together and they were like brothers.”

Seeing Song Xiyu started sobbing again at the thought of her loved ones, Bai Rong handed her a piece of tissue. Beside them, a glint of dejection flared in Gu Mingchen’s eyes as he stood up and walked outside. “Mom, I’ll go check on him.”

Song Xiyu nodded and Bai Rong went after Gu Mingchen. When she saw him, he was standing below a shady tree smoking away. The flickering end of the cigarette reflected some light on his depressed face.

There was resentment and sadness written all over his face as he smoked the cigarette over and over again. Bai Rong approached him and asked, “Did Sheng Dongcheng and Shen Ao do it?”

Gu Mingchen looked at her with his bloodshot eyes, took another puff, and blew the smoke out in another direction. Bai Rong hugged him from behind and rested her face on his sturdy back. “I will be here for you, just like how you’ve always been there for me when I felt so helpless.”

“I’m actually not Gu Tianhang’s son,” Gu Mingchen said, his voice hoarse. “But you look a lot like your mother though,” Bai Rong blurted out. But she instantly understood what he meant right after.

He was not Song Xiyu and Gu Tianhang’s son. “So you’re your mother’s brother’s son?”
