You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 84

Bai Rong was helpless, so she walked to the refrigerator then opened it and glanced at the ingredients inside. Apparently, it was not enough.

“What about having noodles? It will be faster.” Speaking that, Bai Rong took out some instant noodles, ham, vegetables, eggs and tomatoes. Gu Mingchen followed her into the kitchen.

She looked at him with a sensible look.

If Gu Mingchen was not chief of the Special Forces, his father not a lofty deputy commander and his mother not the boss of one of the world’s top 100 companies; and they were just normal people who got to know each other through a blind date, then dated for another two years and subsequently entered into marriage; perhaps he would make a very favorable candidate for husband.

Bai Rong poured water into the wok, started the fire and prepared to wash the tomatoes.

But Gu Mingchen was one step ahead of her.

“I’ll be occupied from tomorrow onwards, so I might not show up for a period of time. Settle the application for the military base in the meantime. If you have any emergencies, just contact Lieutenant Shang. I’ve already informed him. He will deal with them.” Gu Mingchen said in a deep voice without looking at her and washed the tomatoes seriously.

“Okay.” Bai Rong responded then heated the wok to prepare stir-fried eggs and tomatoes but Gu Mingchen took her shovel then cracked the eggs into the wok and started to cook.

“You can cook?” Bai Rong was surprised to see his experienced movements.

A person of his background shouldn’t be lacking a housemaid; He even had subordinates taking care of him, so it was unlikely for him to enter the kitchen.

“I used to be a squad leader and I won the second prize in a cooking competition.” Gu Mingchen put in the cut tomatoes, then added salt, sugar and simmered them over low heat.

“I thought that you must have been appointed an important position right after you joined the military. After all, your father holds a high-ranking position.” Bai Rong said frankly.

“Junhao and I both entered the Special Forces for training.” Gu Mingchen’s eyes sank, as if there was some serious pain buried deep inside but he understated it and continued, “After that, Junhao was admitted to the Air Force University, and he is the head over there now.”

“So you both worked your way to the top?” Bai Rong asked casually.

“On the surface, it looked like we worked our way up; but the subordinates all know our identity and background. Needless to say, we will rise through the ranks swiftly. Clearly all these didn’t need to be mentioned upfront. If we have our own children, I will take care of them as well.” Gu Mingchen said softly.

Bai Rong flushed a little and she didn’t dare to look at him, “The water is boiling.” She opened the noodle pack and put the instant noodle, vegetables and sausages in.

“Liu Yan said that she will not be back tonight. Do you want me to stay over?” Gu Mingchen said abruptly.

Bai Rong was startled and her fingers were scalded upon touching the edge of the pot. She immediately retracted her hand.

Gu Mingchen could feel his heart aching as he held her hand, then he placed her scalded hand under the faucet and rinsed it with water, “Sometimes you seem to be very sensible and clear-minded; but sometimes I feel that you are actually pretty careless and don’t know how to take care of yourself. I think you should stop moving about. Just sit down and wait for the food to be ready.

Warmth embraced her upon hearing those words he said. She even had the urge to be together with him.

There was a voice calling from her heart which told her to give it a shot; since she didn’t want to fall in love anymore, let alone marry again.

In the worst-case scenario, they would end up going their separate ways. Now that she was already divorced, she wouldn’t affect him in a bad way anymore, right?

But what if Gu Mingchen was also acting on impulse? If he fell out of love after she had given him her entire heart, what should she do then?

The tragedy of her mother flashed across her mind. She had a dull, cold and boring temperament, so she was afraid that he might be tired of her soon.

“I think it’s ready. We can eat now.” Bai Rong retracted her hand.

“Let me do it.” Gu Mingchen said and separated the noodles into half then served them into a big bowl, followed by putting the stir-fried eggs and tomatoes into two bowls. He went out carrying the bowls while she took the chopsticks and handed him a pair.

The man lowered his head and slurped the noodle while Bai Rong looked at him subconsciously. Never in her wildest dreams had she imagined that she would be with him.

She could still recall their first encounter. He was cool, estranged, firm, with a cold aura that would send people away; as though a god who was unapproachable.

Gu Mingchen looked at her and their eyes met.

Bai Rong paused. Now that she was caught looking at him, it would be weird if she were to move her eyes away.

“Why are you looking at me? Aren’t you going to eat?” He asked.

“I think it’s a little too much for me. I was thinking of asking if you wanted more.” Bai Rong gave an excuse.

“Eat first. Give it to me if you can’t finish.” Gu Mingchen said in a deep voice.

Her heart rippled upon hearing that he did not mind eating her leftovers. She lowered her head and started eating.

Gu Mingchen leaned against the chair after he finished eating, then sent a message on his phone and continued to give orders for that night’s task remotely.

Bai Rong felt embarrassed to let him eat her leftovers, so she finished all her noodles. Seeing that the man was still busy with his work, she went to the kitchen to do the dishes.

Right when she put the bowls into the cabinet, Gu Mingchen hugged her from behind. His arm was like a pincer packed with exploding power.

Bai Rong straightened up and he kissed her on the cheek.

She was so nervous that she couldn’t say a word and there was a reflection of the both of them entangling in the window.

“Do you want to do it here or in the room?” Gu Mingchen whispered and toned like he was suppressing a certain emotion.

She knew what he meant. She didn’t want to be reminded of what they did here every time she cooked in the kitchen. “In the room.” But as soon as those words came out, she wanted to bite her own tongue as she was caught by his word trap, “Do I get to pick the third option?” Bai Rong asked awkwardly.

“Yes, sofa.” Gu Mingchen answered. He lifted her up and walked towards the room.

Her room was tidy; the comforter was neatly stacked and the books on the bedside table were neatly and meticulously placed.

He put her on the bed then put a pillow under her butt and slowly approached her.

Bai Rong exhaled nervously. She regretted doing it with him so impulsively before. If they had the first and second time, then doing it the third time would be logical; If she refused, it made her hypocritical.

He kissed her then slowly moved to her neck to unbutton her shirt and moved his palm up her slender waist.

At this moment, Gu Mingchen was like a volcano that could melt all living things on its path. Bai Rong felt hot and there were dense beads of sweat on her nose. He wandered into all her senses with his sturdiness, force and clarity.

Bai Rong didn’t dare make a loud noise, yet while suppressing her voice, there was something that seemed to be uncontrollable. At the end, he lowered his head to kiss her lips.

He didn’t take a bath; and neither did she make a move. She just closed her eyes to rest.

He put his arm across her waist from behind, then pulled her into his embrace and said in a deep voice with an unfading sexiness, “I don’t want to leave tonight.”

“Okay.” Bai Rong answered.
