You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 110

Dragging her luggage, Bai Rong had arrived at Xing Bachuan’s house. The main door was tightly closed. The girl proceeded to knock on it.

A maid came over to open the door, only to see Bai Rong standing outside. The maid looked at her awkwardly before turning around to report respectfully, “Madam, Young Mistress. Ms. Bai is here.”

“Close the door. Let her come in from the back door.” Xing Jinnian replied coldly.

“OK.” The maid turned to Bai Rong apologetically. “I’m sorry. Young Mistress wants you to come in from the back door.”

Once she finished her orders, the maid closed the door immediately.

Bai Rong’s lips curled in disdain. She had expected this before she arrived. However, coming back to the Xing Family was just the first of her plans. She must bear the unbearable in order to achieve the impossible.

Bai Rong dragged her luggage all the way to the back door obediently. The loud sounds of friction of the wheels on the rough ground had covered the sound of her footsteps. However, the girl was totally at peace and not the least bit annoyed.

Once again, she knocked on the back door. This time, it was the butler who opened the door.

The girl carried her luggage in and went past the garden to the back entrance of the villa.

Xing Jinnian was already there with her arms crossed and lips curled. “I’m sorry, we don’t welcome you. If by all means you must stay here, you can sleep at the storeroom behind you.”

“Is dad aware about this arrangement?” Bai Rong asked icily.

“Don’t try to threaten me with dad. His success was all thanks to grandma’s support. And I’m sorry to say that you’re not even related to her at all to threaten me.” Xing Jinnian replied smugly.

Bai Rong fished out her phone and took a picture of the storeroom. Then, she sent the picture to Xing Bachuan.

Her father called back immediately. “What do you mean by this?”

“Nian said I’m going to live in that storeroom from now on. Was it your idea?” Bai Rong asked directly.

“Rong, you should know by now that our family doesn’t welcome you. Must you force yourself into our place?” Xing Bachuan replied out of frustration.

“I want to help you. If I were to stay elsewhere, I’m afraid that you’ll forget about me. I think we had a pleasant conversation this afternoon. Do you think it’ll be appropriate to let your own daughter stay in a storeroom? For me it’s fine, since I even lived under the bridge before. But I wonder how your friends and colleagues will think about this?” The smart girl retorted steadily.

Xing Bachuan was really frightened by Bai Rong’s reminder.

“I’ll call them now.” The man hung up on her.

Bai Rong curled her lips smugly in turn.

Xing Jinnian was furious at the call, “Bai Rong, what’re you trying to do? You have no place in this house!” Xing Jinnian reprimanded in disgust.

“Status and place are earned, not given out for free. I’m back now, Xing Jinnian. Don’t tell me you’re afraid?” Bai Rong retorted.

“What should I be afraid of? I have the love of my parents. Oh, and also a boyfriend, who was your ex-husband. He too loves me wholeheartedly. Now that I’m working with him, I get to see him everyday and every moment I wish. I’m basically showered with all the happiness in this world.” Xing Jinnian replied, showing off her perfect life.

“Aren’t you afraid that Su Xuyan may get tired of you? From what I know of him, he never sticks to a woman for long.” Bai Rong reminded her stepsister.

“That’s to other mediocre women. All these while, Xuyan has been waiting for me. He told me that I’m the only woman he loves and that he had never touched you at all.” Xing Jinnian retorted arrogantly.

“Then I hope you can hold on to the same confidence you have now for as long as you can.” Bai Rong replied flatly and looked behind her stepsister.

Chang Ruyan walked towards them, her tone as disgusting as her daughter’s. “Come in. Bachuan has called and asked me to arrange a proper room for you.”

“Mum! Didn’t we discuss and decide to give her that storeroom?” Xing Jinnian stomped her feet in frustration.

“Enough of that. It’s your father’s orders. We have no say against that.” Chang Ruyan turned around with a downcast expression.

With her luggage, Bai Rong walked past her stepsister and followed her stepmother.

“Let me remind you something. The rooms upstairs belong to Bachuan, me and Nian. You’re not allowed to go up the second floor.” Chang Ruyan said while opening the door of a room at the very end. “This is your room then.”

“Mum, isn’t this room haunted?” Xing Jinnian said on purpose while winking at her mother.

Bai Rong curled her lips at her stepsister’s stupid statement. Xing Bachuan would never continue staying in this villa if any of its rooms was haunted. She was very clear of Xing Jinnian’s sinister intentions.

“Well, someone is hell-bent on squeezing in the house, so we couldn’t do anything about it.” Chang Ruyan replied, her tone full of despise.

Bai Rong ignored them and entered the room before closing the door. After that, she eyed the door lock, trying to estimate its measurements. Since she was going to stay in this room, she wouldn’t want anyone to enter her room freely. She must change her lock then.

Other than the lock, those furniture in the room like bedsheets, blankets and pillows, all had to be changed.

After putting down her luggage, the girl went out to do her shopping.

Xing Jinnian stared at her stepsister maliciously. “Mum, why is dad letting her stay with us? She is not even part of our family.”

“You think your dad wants her to stay here? That girl happened to know some top secret of your father and threatened him with it. Hence, he has no choice but to let her in. Anyway, we can just give her a cold shoulder and ignore her presence.” Chang Ruyan patted her daughter’s hands as she comforted her.

“Ignore her? No, I can’t let her get away so easily! I plan to invite Xuyan to our house and let him stay the night.” The girl requested while shaking her mother’s hands with a pouty expression.

“Oh my dear, how can you simply let a man stay the night with you? Anyway, since you and Xuyan have slept together, both of you should consider fixing the date for your marriage. You’re not pregnant, right?” Chang Ruyan glanced at Xing Jinnian’s tummy.

“No. Then… help me to persuade Xuyan at dinner later. Just the right chance to upset Bai Rong.” Xing Jinnian said with a mean smile.

Bai Rong had bought a lot of furniture, which was sent to her place by a lorry.

It happened that Su Xuyan had arrived at the same time when she returned to Xing Bachuan’s home from her shopping.

Their eyes met across the distance. Su Xuyan was looking at his ex-wife curiously, while Bai Rong merely averted her gaze emotionlessly, as though he was just a stranger.

The workmen moved all her new furniture into the room and even helped her change the lock.

“I’ve no idea why she is here, but now she’s already taking this place as her own home. What a thick skin she has.” Xing Jinnian muttered loudly.

After sending off the workmen, Bai Rong went back to her new room.

“What a weird lady. I’m seriously worried that she will get up and stab us when we’re asleep at night. I’m really scared, Mum. You kept all the keys with you, right? Remember to lock the door before bedtime.” Xing Jinnian said cautiously.

“Yes, all safe with me. Let me call your dad and ask him to come back for dinner.” Chang Ruyan went off to call her husband.

From her room, Bai Rong side-eyed Xing Jinnian with a wicked smile, like a hunter in the dark waiting to pounce on her prey.

Xing Jinnian felt her heart drop in fear. She must think of a way to get rid of her stepsister.

Bai Rong returned to her room and switched on her laptop. After some research on the internet, she finally found the current address of that person…
