You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 465

Chapter 465 Collateral Damage

Her appearance is also similar to how I looked in the past. How can I not worry?

Aaron seemed to suss Bai Rong’s thoughts. “I didn’t have a choice. Even if I leave her out, she would’ve shown up on her own. Since I can’t prevent it, I thought it’d be better to keep her around.”

“Aaron, have you ever thought of starting a relationship with Ling?” Bai Rong probed as she cleaned the chicken wings. “Ling behaves like a child. I like my woman a bit more mature, so nothing will ever happen between us. She’s like a little sister to me,” Aaron clarified.

“She does behave like a young girl—she only has eyes for handsome men,” said Bai Rong as she laughed. Aaron also laughed. “I’m guessing she’s going to be rather disappointed once she sees Gu Mingchen since he already belongs to you.”

Shrugging, Bai Rong replied, “My only concern is keeping my relationship with my grandpa under wraps.” “And why is that, if you don’t mind me asking?” Aaron stepped up to help wash the vegetables.

“I don’t want people to realize that I’m really Bai Rong. It’s going to open up a whole can of worms. Honestly, I’m a little scared because of what happened in the past,” Bai Rong answered vaguely.

“Are you referring to Su Xuyan?” Aaron could already guess since they’d met each other on the island before.

Bai Rong didn’t try to gloss over the truth and nodded. “He’s my ex-husband. There’s a lot of history between us. I had to change my whole appearance to hide from him. To control me, he used to inject a virus into me once every three months. I would suffer immensely and potentially die if he stopped the injections.”

“Really?” Aaron knitted his brows, looking at Bai Rong with concern.

“Shen Yiyan saved my life. I got plastic surgery and managed to make a new life for myself. Do you want to see my old photos?” asked Bai Rong.

“Sure.”

Bai Rong dried her hands and opened her old QQ account. There were only a few photos as she didn’t like to take selfies. She showed one of them to Aaron. Liu Yan had forced her to take a photo of them together back when she was a gynecologist.

Seeing the brilliant smile on Liu Yan’s face, she felt a twinge of sadness.

Liu Yan was so unrestrained back then—a hopeless romantic with a cheerful personality. Yet now…

If he knew that Mr. Tang was my grandpa, that would complete the last piece of the puzzle. So I can’t let anyone find out about my relationship with grandpa. Even if Su Xuyan knows that Bai Rong is Mr. Tang’s granddaughter, he wouldn’t be able to link it back to me,” explained
