You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 464 A Pleasant Visit From A Friend

It was already ten when they finished breakfast. Gu Mingchen left the house to attend to some business while the traditional medicine practitioner dropped by to check on her. After checking her pulse, he told her that she could go off her medication. She was also allowed to move about, though vigorous exercise was still out of the question.

She had practiced as a gynecologist in the past, so she understood his concerns. She returned to her room and read some psychology books. She closed her eyes and tried to perform a self-diagnosis, using her past cases as a comparison.

That afternoon, Aunt Wang prepared a scrumptious spread. Bai Rong wasn’t picky, and she ate everything that was served. She continued reading her books after lunch and took a nap when she began to feel sleepy.

She was awakened by the sound of her phone ringing. She saw that it was Aaron, and she picked up the call. “Aaron, it’s been a while.” She was pleasantly surprised at his call.

“’I’ve completed the paperwork using the information on your identity card. I’ll need your signature before the money can be transferred into your account.” “Do I need to go to Ustrana?”

“No, you may drop by the lawyer’s office. Or, I can ask the lawyer and Mr. Tang to come to your place.”

“I’ll go to the lawyer’s office. It would be inappropriate for grandpa to come for me instead. By the way, I’d love to treat both of you to a meal,” Bai Rong replied happily.

“We can meet at my house then. You wouldn’t be able to cook up a storm in that tiny space on the yacht.” “Your house?” Bai Rong asked. “You bought a house in A City?”

“Yes, I thought this city has some potential. If I wanted to stay here and build my roots, I thought it’d be good to have my own digs. I bought a house in Qing Shan Gardens, and it’s fully renovated so I could move in immediately. It’s more peaceful here, and the fresh air has been doing wonders for my health.”

“Qing Shan Gardens, you say? It’s really close to my place—probably just a ten-minute drive away. When did you buy the house? Also, why didn’t you get in touch with me when you came to A City? Some friend you are,” Bai Rong teased.

I’ve never seen Aaron as anything less than a friend.

“I wasn’t done with the paperwork yet then. Besides, I hadn’t bought a house. I thought it would be troublesome if I’d contacted you back then. But now, everything’s finally settled.”

“I’ll come over now—send me your address. I’m so excited to see you again,” said Bai Rong as she got off the bed.
