You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 150

She had read a phrase from a book once that went like this, A powerful woman keeps a man’s heart; A kind woman keeps a man’s pride; A smart woman keeps her own pride.

An Qi was a kind woman.

Even though she had lost all hope in a man like Song Jianren, perhaps his tears right now would have been sufficient to satisfy her as she was simply too kind.

A person’s happiness wasn’t determined by the amount of money they had nor their social status and power, but their desire.

A person who was easily satisfied would easily find happiness, whereas a person who was hard to satisfy would find it difficult to be happy.

Bai Rong’s phone rang and she answered with a smile as soon as she saw it was Liu Yan.

“Rong, where are you now? The training is finally over. Gu Mingchen truly is the devil. Me coming to work here in the army was a mistake! Not only have I not found a boyfriend, I’m becoming more and more like a man now!” Liu Yan complained.

Bai Rong laughed, “Let’s meet at Shuiyue International. I’ll head over now. Once I decide on a place for dinner, I’ll let you know.”

“Alright, see you later!”

As Bai Rong put her phone away, she realized that the chief of police had been standing next to her.

“Thank you, Ms. Bai. We wouldn’t have solved this case this quickly without your help. We even thought that it would end up being unsolved instead.” The chief of police laughed as he thanked her.

“It was nothing, really. I’m also working at the research institute anyway, so you don’t have to thank me, chief.”

“Ms. Bai, your name is well-known internationally. I’m going to host a celebration party tonight. Would you be free to attend it?” The chief of police extended an invitation.

“I’ve just returned from overseas today and have a friend to meet, so I won’t be attending the party. Thank you for your kind invitation, chief.” Bai Rong nodded.

“In that case, I’ll have someone send you over.”

Sometimes, rejecting someone’s offer too much would only cause more trouble for oneself. Not only would accepting offers appropriately protect their pride, it also helped to build a friendly relationship between the parties involved.

“Alright.”

Bai Rong was the first to arrive at Shuiyue International and walked into a café with a nice ambience.

On the stage, a beautiful and graceful girl in a white dress was playing a beautiful tune on the piano.

She texted Liu Yan the location and sat inside a private room.

There was a curtain at the door of the room which she could look outside from.

Soon after, Liu Yan had rushed over and looked happily at Bai Rong, “Rong, you look amazing! You’re so much more beautiful than before right now! Even I’m falling in love with you!”

Bai Rong smiled, “My beauty is nothing compared to your heroic and valiant look. That’s a woman’s true colors.”

“Hahahaha, a woman’s true colors, eh? I like the sound of that!” Liu Yan hugged Bai Rong.

Bai Rong felt her eyes tear up as she felt the warmth that she had longed for.

“Rong, I’ve missed you so much!” Liu Yan said with a slight sniffle.

“Yan, I’ve missed you too!” Bai Rong said softly.

“You have no idea how much of a jerk that Gu Mingchen is! He never looks at me in the eye whenever we see each other. He is all lovey-dovey with Su Wanning, however. They keep showing their affection for each other publicly every day! I really want to slap him! Honestly, he’s even more of a scumbag than Su Xuyan! Su Xuyan hasn’t had a single scandal throughout these three years and even asks me often about how you are doing.” Liu Yan said.

Meanwhile, Bai Rong maintained a neutral expression and no one could tell what she was thinking.

The waiter served up some wine, steak Foie Gras, vegetable salad and some snacks.

Bai Rong twirled the wine glass elegantly in her hand, while Liu Yan was hungry and wolfed down her steak and took a big gulp of her wine, “Do you think it’s still possible between you and Su Xuyan? I think he’s trying to turn over a new leaf.”

“Time heals all wounds, but the scars remain and the pain is unforgettable. Men are like textbooks, and Su Xuyan has taught me sadness and anger, but I no longer wish to return to that relationship.” Bai Rong said coldly and took a sip of her wine, her long earlobes making her seem a lot more intellectual and sensible.

Liu Yan looked admirably at Bai Rong and propped her chin on her hands as she said loudly, “Rong, you seem a lot more sophisticated ever since you studied psychology overseas!”

Bai Rong laughed and tapped Liu Yan on the forehead, “I feel like I’m a walking source of wisdom right now. Hahahaha! Actually, about 60% of it is faked.”

“I don’t think you’re faking it. It’s coming from within you. I feel like my male hormones are coming out too as I spend so much time at the military base.”

Bai Rong laughed at Liu Yan’s comment once again.

They drank quite a lot as they chatted and Bai Rong paid the bill in the end.

As they walked out hand-in-hand with smiles on their faces, a tall man stood in front of Bai Rong.

Bai Rong squinted as she raised her head to look at him.

It was Su Xuyan and he was staring intensely at Bai Rong’s cheeks that were red from drinking, “Rong, you’re back!”

“Heh!” Bai Rong laughed, “It’s better to miss than to meet.”

“And it’s better to forget than to miss!” Liu Yan shoved Su Xuyan aside as she continued Bai Rong’s sentence.

Su Xuyan grabbed Bai Rong by the arm, “You’re both drunk and it’s raining heavily outside. It’s hard to get a cab now, I’ll send you two home.”

“Mr. Su, you have an appointment with Mr. Zhang of Qingtian International.” His assistant reminded.

“I’ll come back later.” Su Xuyan frowned as he dragged the two by the arm into his car.

“Where do you live?” Su Xuyan asked.

Bai Rong knew he would’ve guessed where they lived by the next day anyway, and she should be prepared to face everything now that she had returned.

“A City International Hotel.” Bai Rong said.

Su Xuyan started driving while Bai Rong called Mu Xiaosheng on her phone, “My friend and I are drunk. Pick us up at the hotel entrance.”

“Who are you calling?” Su Xuyan seemed unhappy.

“My superior.” Bai Rong said and closed her eyes.

The moment Su Xuyan stopped his car at the hotel entrance, Bai Rong had gotten out of the car before he did, and Mu Xiaosheng came over as soon as he saw them.

“Please send my friend here to the Special Forces military base. She has to work early tomorrow morning.” Bai Rong nodded towards the car.

“Alright, sure.” Mu Xiaosheng sat next to Liu Yan.

Bai Rong was still somewhat concerned and said, “Don’t you dare think about taking advantage of my friend, or I won’t forgive you.”

“I know.” Mu Xiaosheng said.

Bai Rong looked towards Su Xuyan who had been staring at her, and said, “Sorry to trouble you.”

“I’ll contact you later.” Su Xuyan said and drove off.

Bai Rong stumbled towards her own room and a black figure came running towards her as soon as she opened the door.

She was pinned against the wall. Before she could react, she felt his warm body pressed against hers as he spoke, “Do you know how I handle women who toy with me? What kind of doctor leaves right after making me fall asleep like that?”
