You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 461 Counterattack

“Of course, Mom,” Bai Rong promised. She knew taking care of three kids would be too much for her. She would not have the time and energy for that even after they settled Gu Mingchen’s issue, so it would be good to let Song Xiyu help out.

She was the woman who raised Gu Mingchen, so Bai Rong was certain that she would make a good caregiver. Song Xiyu took leave after checking on Bai Rong briefly.

Considering how busy she was now, her short visit and her gift meant a lot to Bai Rong. So much had happened between them. If it were not for those desperate situations that estranged their relationship, the two women would have gotten along well a long time ago.

By the time Gu Mingchen and Song Xiyu sent off all the guests, it was already ten at night, but they still had to stay up. Gu Mingchen had dropped by her room a few times throughout the day.

Bai Rong knew the best she could do for everyone now was to make sure she stayed healthy, so she rested in the room.

She fell in and out of drowsy sleep the whole day. Sometimes, she would see Gu Mingchen at the side of her bed when she opened her eyes.

Every time he saw her awake, he would call her gently and assure her, saying, “I’m here, don’t worry.”

She knew he would always stay by her side, but she was just concerned about him. It would be another sleepless night for him.

The night passed and morning came. The family and guests sent Gu Tianhang to the crematorium the next day.

After cremation, his ashes were placed at the Martyr’s Memorial Garden. By afternoon, everyone had a meal together.

It was not until three o’clock in the afternoon that Gu Mingchen came back to see Bai Rong.

He did not have sufficient sleep for the past three days. “Is Mom okay?” Bai Rong asked, holding his hand.

He nodded.

“What about you? Do you want to rest a bit? You look tired.”
