You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 67

Three years ago, Bai Rong had forced Su Xuyan to marry her.

During their wedding in the crowded church, none of the spectators were their relatives. They were all actors employed by Su Xuyan with a 50 dollar angpao each.

That was why she never had the chance to meet Su Xuyan’s relatives. She basically knew nothing about him.

Turned out Su Xuyan and Su Wanning were really cousins. That meant he and Su Junhao were cousins as well. And Su Junhao was Gu Mingchen’s best friend. All of them stayed in the same area.

What type of fate was this?

A commoner like her shouldn’t be mingling around this bunch of rich and high ranking people.

With Su Wanning’s appearance, the tension between the couple vanished as Su Xuyan placed his arm over Bai Rong’s shoulder with a crooked smile. “She’s your cousin-in-law.”

“Cousin-in-law?” Su Wanning’s shock doubled at the statement. “My dear cousin, since when were you married? She…….”

Su Wanning pointed at Bai Rong; her words stuck in her throat.

If Bai Rong was Su Xuyan’s wife, then she had nothing to do with Gu Mingchen at all.

So Gu Mingchen had been pretending in front of her all this while!

That realization lifted Su Wanning’s mood. “You two match each other well. By the way, today my boyfriend and his family are coming over for lunch. Why don’t you two come over with Aunt as well? Since we’re all going to be a family soon.”

“Boyfriend? You mean Gu Mingchen?” Su Xuyan smiled.

“You know I only love him all this while. After so long, he finally accepted me.” Su Wanning said so deliberately in front of Bai Rong.

Bai Rong lowered her eyes and hid her emotions beneath her long lashes. She thought she wouldn’t be sad. After all, she was the one who pushed him away.

But the news of him finally accepting Su Wanning and having dinner with her family still pained her.

It was a merciless agony that came out of the blue without giving her time to compose herself. No matter how she tried to not care, it would always eat up on her as she could never fool her heart.

“Ok, let’s go together. It’s time for us to meet up anyway. So many events have disrupted our plans and it’s time to make things right and official. Am I right, my dear wife?” Su Xuyan looked at Bai Rong wickedly.

Bai Rong turned away and avoided his mean gaze. “I don’t want to go.”

A malicious glare shot from Su Xuyan’s dark eyes. “It’s not up to you. I’m warning you, don’t try to go after men that are not meant for you.”

“What do you mean by that? Who is she going after? Is she having an affair outside? If that’s the case, I’ll never allow such a flirty woman to be my daughter-in-law.” Xiong Daini replied sharply.

“Of course not, she wouldn’t dare to do that.” Su Xuyan smiled confidently as he looked at Bai Rong crookedly. “Right, Rong?”

Bai Rong balled her fist as she glared at Su Xuyan.

He was like a dangerous beast that cornered her, making her struggle to catch her breath without giving her a break.

She knew that the moment she met Gu Mingchen’s parents with her current identity, there would be no way for them to get together even after she divorced. His parents would never allow him to marry a divorced woman like her.

But she had no choice other than bracing herself for the meeting.

“Xuyan, you sure you want to bring her with you? I’m not ready to let her ruin my name.” Xiong Daini reminded her son displeasingly.

“We have to meet sooner or later. Let’s go.” Su Xuyan wrapped his arms around Bai Rong’s waist.

Bai Rong pried off his hands and said sarcastically, “Aren’t you germophobic? I’m dirtying your hands.”

“I’m already dirty, so I don’t mind.” Su Xuyan replied and pulled her closer to his embrace.

Bai Rong paled at his words. She was the one who declared how loving she was with her husband. Since Su Xuyan was willing to play out the act with her, then she had no right to be disgusted by him.

Su Wanning observed Su Xuyan and Bai Rong’s interactions. Now that she knew Bai Rong was a married woman, her resentment towards her had lessened.

She knew that no woman would be able to escape from her cousin. Su Xuyan was a typical bad boy; just the type that was greatly favored by most women.

“My house is just 100m away; it’s not that far. Next time we should take a walk around the neighborhood together, Bai Rong.” Su Wanning said with an underlying smugness within her eyes.

Bai Rong did not acknowledge her though.

“Wanning is talking to you! Didn’t you hear that? What type of manners is this?” Xiong Daini lectured in displeasure.

Bai Rong clenched her teeth at the woman’s harsh words.

Su Xuyan pinched on her waist warningly, causing the girl to glare at him.

“Mum is talking to you. Answer her.” Su Xuyan threatened with his crooked smile.

Bai Rong still remained quiet. Emotions of rage and pent-up frustrations began to gather and expand in her heart. She was at the brink of blowing up with those raging emotions.

The four of them arrived at Su Wanning’s house. Su Junhao was very surprised to see Bai Rong with them.

“Brother, let me introduce her to you. She’s our cousin’s wife whom he married some time ago.” Su Wanning happily introduced.

“You two were married? Since when? Recently?” Su Junhao asked Bai Rong in a surprised tone.

“Married for 3 years now, but we kept it a secret all these while. Now we don’t find the need to hide it, so I brought her to meet mum and hop over for lunch.” Su Xuyan answered with a smile.

Su Junhao looked between Su Xuyan and Bai Rong as a bad intuition crept up within him.

“Oh ok, please take a seat. I have to settle some important matters.” Su Junhao said while retreating to his room and called Gu Mingchen.

Gu Mingchen picked up the call, “I’m near the villa now. Coming over soon.”

“I’m not rushing you here. I just want to tell you something shocking; Bai Rong is here too. Turns out she’s Xuyan’s wife! Do you know about this?” Su Junhao asked in shock.

“I know that.” Gu Mingchen answered heavily.

“Then all this while you two have been pretending?” Su Junhao couldn’t wrap his head around the situation.

Gu Mingchen was silent before asking, “How is she acting around Su Xuyan?”

“Very weird; Su Xuyan seemed to be declaring his dominance, and Bai Rong’s face was very pale. She was so cold towards him that I could feel her resentment towards his intimate actions. Mind to tell me what is actually happening? Don’t tell me you agreed to come for lunch because of Bai Rong.” The more he thought, the more Su Junhao found the situation unnerving.

“That, you don’t have to care. I’m hanging up.” Gu Mingchen coolly cut the call as a razor sharp glint flashed in his deep eyes.

At the living room.

“Speaking of my son-in-law, he’s definitely one of a kind; appointed as Major General at a young age, and now he’s already the Chief of the Special Forces under the Military Council. His father is the deputy commander of the military and his mother is running the family business which is listed as one of the world’s wealthiest companies. He’s also a good-looking lad who can swoon the hearts of many. Luckily Wanning has been his childhood playmate, otherwise we will never have the chance to get such an outstanding son-in-law.” Su Wanning’s mother held Xiong Daini’s hands as she chatted with a content smile.

“Oh, then I came at the right time. I’m also curious to see this highly revered Chief of yours.” Xiong Daini smiled in reply.

“Oh, by the way, since when did you have a daughter-in-law? You didn’t even tell me when she married into your family and what she’s working as.” Su Wanning’s mother hit Xiong Daini lightly.

“She’s a doctor who married Xuyan 3 years ago. I don’t even know about this marriage, otherwise I would have objected to the marriage. This girl has no manners! Xuyan bought me a jade bracelet that’s worth 50 million, but then she wore it beforehand without my consent. Imagine her bloody hands on my bracelet; oh it’s so disgusting!” Xiong Daini glanced at Bai Rong in disdain.

She did not lower her voice, hence everyone present could hear her, including Gu Mingchen who had just entered the house.

His brooding eyes scanned Bai Rong for a moment before averting them discreetly……
