You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 128

Bai Rong had never thought about that.

Would Gu Mingchen acknowledge the child if she brought his son to him? Would Gu Mingchen’s parents acknowledge the child?

Would Gu Mingchen be disgusted with her since he no longer remembered her?

What would she do if they refused to acknowledge the child?

Her mind went blank for a moment and she couldn’t answer his question.

Su Xuyan snorted and said coldly as he stood up, “Relax, I didn’t find your son, so it’s absolutely impossible for you to be with Gu Mingchen.”

Su Xuyan turned and walked towards the door, while Bai Rong stood there with her gaze fixed on his back.

She felt that Su Xuyan had found her son and just didn’t want to tell her.

She was afraid that he would hurt her son, and cried out in panic, “If you have found my son, I will marry you. I won’t look for Gu Mingchen as it is impossible for us to be together even if I have his child. They would not acknowledge my son anyway.”

Su Xuyan turned around and smirked at Bai Rong, “In that case, I’d better try my best to find your son. I hope you won’t go back on your promise.”

Su Xuyan left the room, while Bai Rong slumped back into the sofa and closed her eyes as she wondered where her child with Gu Mingchen was.

Her phone rang and she answered when she saw that it was Liu Yan.

“Rong, are you coming back for New Year?” Liu Yan seemed to have caught a cold as her voice sounded nasal.

Bai Rong had not planned on going back, but her friends and her mother were still in A City, so she should go back and visit them.

“Once the prosecutor’s office lets us go, I’ll come back and treat you to a meal. We’ll have a reunion!” Bai Rong said softly, “I miss you, Yan.”

“I miss you too! Oh, by the way, I’m currently working as a doctor in the Special Forces Military Base. I saw Gu Mingchen yesterday, but he doesn’t seem to recognize me anymore.” Liu Yan was confused.

“Yan, it’s over between him and I. Please don’t mention me in front of him ever again.” Bai Rong said.

“I’d need a chance to meet him for that to happen anyway. He’s a lieutenant general now and is always busy with meetings. The only time I get to see him is when he gives speeches on stage. Besides, there are many rules in the military and he has so many people around him all the time, so I can’t get close to him anyway.”

“Is he doing alright?” Bai Rong asked without realizing.

“He’s doing quite well ever since he got promoted after his injuries from his last mission. Did he get some brain injury or something?” Liu Yan guessed.

“I think so. It’s good that he’s finally back on track in life, and I have returned to mine as well.” Bai Rong said calmly.

Except, she had left her heart with that man.

“We’ll talk when you get back. I have so many things to tell you. Can’t wait to see you again!” Liu Yan said and hung up.

Bai Rong lay on the sofa and cradled herself with both arms as she felt an inexplicable sadness and loneliness in her heart, as if she had lost an important part of her.

On the eve of the start of the three-day long holiday, the director of the prosecutor’s office treated everyone to dinner.

Bai Rong’s inactivity in the past six months was the greatest achievement for the director.

“Ms. Bai, are you coming back after New Year?” The director asked.

“I should be, but I don’t know when I will be reassigned back there, as that depends on the higher-ups. I would probably be reassigned soon.”

“You’re a responsible person, Ms. Bai. I really wish for you to be a permanent part of our team.” The director complimented.

Bai Rong smiled, “Let’s all work hard together.”

She had drunk a lot tonight as she was in a bad mood.

Halfway through the meal, Bai Rong went outside to get some fresh air. She arrived at the garden and looked at the trees.

The wooden signs that she had written together with Gu Mingchen had long since been covered by others.

It felt very childish, now that she thought about it.

The more beautiful a promise was, the sadder it made her current situation seem.

She wanted to find her wooden sign and throw it away, but there were too many there and she soon found herself deep inside the pile of signs.

“Go, and don’t let anyone come here. I want to be left alone.”

A familiar voice was heard.

Bai Rong paused and looked towards Gu Mingchen who was standing in front of the trees.

He had a cold, distant and merciless look on his face.

“Who’s there?” Gu Mingchen realized there was someone behind the tree, and looked towards it.

Bai Rong was stunned to encounter Gu Mingchen there. When she snapped out of her shock, she walked away from the wooden signs with her eyes downcast and explained, “I hung a wooden sign on the tree once. I’m just looking for it as I don’t want it there anymore.”

Gu Mingchen didn’t even look at her in the eye as he waved her off.

Bai Rong felt her heart sink when she realized that he had completely forgotten about her.

Her mind went blank and her heart felt heavy as she slowly walked outside.

She turned around to look at Gu Mingchen when she got to the entrance and saw that he had hung a wooden sign on the tree. The words on the sign read: I miss you, Hailan.

Bai Rong felt as if a sharp knife had plunged straight into her heart as her body felt weak and she had to grab onto the door to stabilize herself.

Her tears fell as she looked at Gu Mingchen, feeling frustrated at how her body and heart had betrayed her.

It felt so painful that she wanted to get out of there as quickly as possible.

Bai Rong ran out of the building, stumbling all over the place.

She didn’t know what she did wrong.

She had loved Su Xuyan and wanted to live a happy life with him but he had never appreciated her.

She had loved Gu Mingchen and wanted to be with him but she didn’t even have the right to.

All she had wanted was a home that she could return to but all she got was being hurt time and time again, each time worse than the last.

She wondered if God didn’t want her to live anymore as she looked at the oncoming traffic and walked towards it.

However, the cars all avoided her as they drove right past her without even stopping.

She looked around aimlessly as her tears continued to flow down her cheeks.

Moments later, she regained some of her senses and reminded herself that she shouldn’t trouble others even if she were to kill herself.

With that in mind, she slowly walked back to the hotel and lay on her bed with a throbbing pain in her chest.
