You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 122

Su Xuyan entered and fell lazily onto the sofa. He turned his mystifying eyes towards Bai Rong and murmured, “What will you do after finding out the identity of that person?”

“Tell me who he is!” Bai Rong lost her cool, her eyes pricking with tears.

She deserved to know where her child was.

Su Xuyan smirked. “Sleep with me first?”

Bai Rong picked up the fruits from the coffee table and hurled them at Su Xuyan, shrieking, “Get lost!”

Su Xuyan grabbed her hand, his grip as tight as a vice and yanked her down to his side. “You were willing to sleep with Gu Mingchen, so why not with me? How is he better than me? Do you know how many women he has slept with before you?”

“At least I know that I will be the last!” Bai Rong retorted. She could not sit idly while Su Xuyan insulted Gu Mingchen.

“How could you be the last? What about Su Wanning? They are already engaged. Snap out of it Bai Rong, you can never be together with him.”

Bai Rong struggled to free herself.

But Su Xuyan held on firmly, unwilling to release her.

Out of ideas, Bai Rong bent down and bit into his arm as hard as she could.

Su Xuyan gritted his teeth, his face white with anger as he spat out, “Gu Mingchen was the one that raped you.”

Bai Rong looked at Su Xuyan dazedly. Her eyes looked frighteningly like bottomless, soulless pits.

Su Xuyan glanced at the bite marks she left on his arm.

“You must be lying.” Bai Rong refused to believe him.

“Believe it or not, all you have to do is ask Gu Mingchen in order to find out the truth.” Su Xuyan replied confidently.

“That is not possible.”

“Why do you think you are so special to him? Can you not feel how he is trying to compensate you?” Su Xuyan harshly rebutted, pulling away his hand from Bai Rong.

Bai Rong’s shoulders crumpled as her eyes began welling up. Overwhelmed with emotions, she drew her brows together tightly.

Su Xuyan put his arms around her shoulders.

Bai Rong instinctively pushed him off, maintaining a two-meter gap between them, her face white as a sheet.

“Bai Rong, you are extremely smart. How do you think you managed to attract Gu Mingchen’s attention? He has dozens of prettier girls flitting around him every day. Do you really believe that it was your personality that sealed the deal?”

Bai Rong could only stare at him blankly.

“Gu Mingchen likes friendly, energetic and positive girls. He said so in his journal, which was why he fell for Zhou Hailan. Do you think you fit the bill? Frankly, you are the total opposite.”

Every word uttered by Su Xuyan struck Bai Rong heavily.

The news tore her apart. She stumbled onto the couch; her legs having lost all strength.

Su Xuyan stood in front of her, his shadow blocking her entirely.

“Now you should understand. He is only nice to you because he hurt you in the past and thinks that even the pain I caused you is because of him. You should have been able to tell by now how responsible he is.”

Bai Rong’s gaze fell.

Su Xuyan squatted before her and took her icy hands in his.

She could only sit there, still as a statue, wholly lost in thought.

“Bai Rong, I know I betrayed you in the past, but so did you. That makes us even now, right? I still want to be with you so please give me another chance. I promise to cherish you this time.” Su Xuyan implored softly.

Bai Rong turned her gaze towards Su Xuyan and tearfully replied, “if you and your girlfriend had not kidnapped me and left me to die in the wilderness, do you think I would still have met him?”

“I was just trying to scare you. I did not anticipate that you would run away.” Su Xuyan tried to explain.

“Was it wrong of me to have run away?” Bai Rong shot back as her gaze steeled. “Being someone so capable and resourceful to have found the man that raped me, what about my child then? Where is he?”

“I thought you aborted that child? Did you actually give birth to him?” Su Xuyan asked, shakily getting to his feet as he stared at Bai Rong.

Bai Rong averted his gaze.

From the beginning, she had thought that it was Su Xuyan who had stolen the child and it was only after that she realized Su Xuyan had always assumed the child to have been aborted.

The events were too coincidental.

Initially, although Bai Bing had been admitted to the psychiatric institution, Bai Rong never stopped trying to free her.

When Su Xuyan realized she was pregnant, he was adamant about her aborting the child.

Using that as her leverage, Bai Rong got Su Xuyan to help.

She went to the hospital and was pacing back and forth in hesitation when she encountered a student who wanted to keep her miscarriage a secret.

The student then wrote Bai Rong’s name down as her own and the doctor handed that miscarried child to Su Xuyan as proof.

It was only then that Su Xuyan agreed to bail Bai Bing out.

Bai Rong brought her mother out for a walk while Su Xuyan followed without question.

Bai Rong then had the child outside and less than a week later, the baby had been snatched.

The incident deeply affected Bai Bing as well and she lost control, injuring a person. Ever since, she had been confined to the psychiatric hospital, never to be let out again.

“Speak.” Su Xuyan demanded in rage.

“The child is mine and I wanted to give birth to him because I knew I could take care of him.” Bai Rong shouted.

“No wonder you were depressed during that time. I thought that it was over the loss of your child whose father is a rapist. I never thought that despair was because the child had been stolen.”

Bai Rong was distressed.

She never should have mentioned the child to Su Xuyan. What if he harmed the child?

She felt incredibly upset.

Zhou Min returned. Seeing Bai Rong sitting wordlessly on the sofa as though in a stupor, asked, “What happened?”

“Which neighboring city is Gu Mingchen in?” Bai Rong asked as tears blurred her vision.

“How would we know about matters regarding the chief?” Zhou Min replied, ever cautious.

“I got it.” Bai Rong picked up her phone to call Gu Mingchen. “Will you make it back in time if you turn around now?”

“It will be rather difficult because I have an appointment tonight. I will try to rush over tomorrow.” Gu Mingchen replied while glancing at his watch.

“No need. Go ahead and finish what you have to do. What city are you in now?” Bai Rong asked.

“I am in the neighboring Jiangye City, why?” Gu Mingchen sensed that Bai Rong’s tone was off.

“Nothing much, see you tomorrow.” Bai Rong hung up on him.

Gu Mingchen was presently still on the highway. He had an important task to complete that night and Bai Rong did not want to affect his mood.

Bai Rong slung her bag around her shoulder and said to Zhou Min, “I am taking leave tomorrow so please help me inform the prosecutor’s office.”

“Where are you going? Let me go with you.” Zhou Min asked, concerned.

“I am going to meet your chief. Nothing will happen and I will be returning right afterward.” Bai Rong knew that Zhou Min would be reporting to Gu Mingchen either way so it was better to keep things to herself for now.

She left and headed for the bus station, purchasing a ticket that would bring her to Jiangye City. Her bus was the last one that day so she would only reach her destination at 10.30 p.m.. While waiting, she ate a sad dinner of instant noodles.

Then, she put herself up at a motel nearby the bus station.
