You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 234

“When did it start?” Su Xuyan asked worriedly.

Since he saw her manic episode, which was similar to her mother, she decided to come clean and told him honestly. “After I tried to kill myself and got saved.”

“You’re a psychologist. Didn’t you treat many patients previously?” Su Xuyan couldn’t understand.

Previously, when Bai Rong told him she was suffering from a mental illness, he refused to believe her and ignored her words. Hence, he was truly shocked to see her throwing a fit.

“I can’t treat myself. I tried hypnotizing myself a couple of times, but I’d fail every time. There are two types of medicine in my bag—sleeping pills and chlorpromazine.”

Afraid that he wouldn’t understand, she explained, “Chlorpromazine is effective to prevent mania episodes, but it has a serious side effect. It would take six hours for the drug to be expelled by the body. Hence, I can’t take it twice within six hours as it would cause blurred vision and depression.”

Her voice was laced with sorrow. “I can’t sleep well and suffer from severe insomnia. That’s what happens when one takes too many sleeping pills. I doubt I’ll be able to live to a ripe old age. And even if I do, I’ll suffer from Alzheimer’s. By then, I’ll be lost in my own thoughts and lose control over my bladder control. I won’t hear you when you talk to me. That’s worse than being in a coma,” she concluded calmly.

Su Xuyan’s heart ached for her.

Since young, Bai Rong had been a diligent and smart student. Even though she had to work in university to pay for her tuition fees, she had always come out top in her class.

He couldn’t believe someone as smart as her would end up suffering from Alzheimer’s in her old age.

After all, he saw with his own eyes what happened to Bai Bing.

“It can be treated, right?” Su Xuyan’s brows were furrowed.

“I don’t know. Perhaps in the future when the technology is more advanced. But that’s too far ahead for me, so I won’t think about that.” Bai Rong sighed and gazed at him. “Su Xuyan, will you give me my child now?”

Rage bubbled up within Su Xuyan as he grabbed her shoulders. “Why are you so stubborn? Don’t you remember who caused you to commit suicide and suffer from manic episodes?” He roared angrily. “It isn’t me. It’s Gu Mingchen! If you insist on staying with him, your illness will only get worse! Let me tell you. Zhou Hailan bore Gu Mingchen a child, too.”

Bai Rong’s eyes widened in surprise. “What? How is that possible? Zhou Hailan told me she got pregnant after her captors gang-raped her.”

“Why do you think those people gave Gu Mingchen the aphrodisiac six years ago? He escaped and didn’t have sex with Zhou Hailan, but he did have sex with you. After that, those people collected his semen and impregnated Zhou Hailan. They wanted to use his child to blackmail him,” Su Xuyan revealed calmly.

Bai Rong’s mind was blown. She staggered backward in shock. As Su Xuyan wasn’t holding on to her tightly, she nearly collapsed and barely supported herself by holding on to the sink.

Zhou Hailan must’ve lied when she said she was gang-raped. She must’ve known that her child belongs to Gu Mingchen.

But Gu Mingchen knows nothing about it.

She asked me to locate the child so she can pretend to explain about her being gang-raped in front of Gu Mingchen so he’ll feel guilty.

At that thought, her head started aching dully.

Gu Mingchen is a responsible man. If he knows Zhou Hailan gave birth to his child and was even raped because of him, he might change his mind.

I won’t be able to accept that. I’ll go crazy and sink into the depths of despair.

Suddenly, Bai Rong felt like she should stop struggling.

All she wanted was a peaceful life, a warm and welcoming home.

Somewhere to return to after a long day of work.

“I choose my son,” she uttered softly and sighed.

Elated, Su Xuyan gave her a tight hug. “I’ll take good care of you and Tian. I promise you won’t ever get hurt again. It doesn’t matter if you can’t give birth anymore. Tian will be our son.”

“Is Zhou Hailan a spy?” asked Bai Rong.

“I don’t think so. I ran a background check on her. She had completed many missions successfully. If she’s a spy, there’s no way she would risk her life for the country. Why did you ask that?” Su Xuyan was puzzled.

Bai Rong’s lips twitched. “I’m prejudiced. I don’t think she’s a good person. To me, Xia He seems to be a good person. Besides, Zhou Hailan lied that she was raped. She must’ve known Gu Mingchen didn’t have sex with her.”

“I believe they injected Gu Mingchen’s sperm into her body after she was raped and lost consciousness,” Su Xuyan explained.

“Why are you so clear about everything? It’s like you’ve witnessed the whole incident personally.” Bai Rong stated her doubts.

“I arrested a man who revealed everything to us, including the fact that Zhou Hailan gave birth to Gu Mingchen’s child.”

“But she was raped. How could they be sure the child was his?” Bai Rong still wasn’t convinced.

“Because they used condoms, so of course they’re certain that she could only be pregnant with Gu Mingchen’s child. She fainted after that and didn’t know what happened next.”

“Then why didn’t they tell her she was pregnant with Gu Mingchen’s child?” Zhou Hailan yearned to give birth to Gu Mingchen’s child. Weren’t they afraid she might lose her baby on purpose? Bai Rong refused to believe Zhou Hailan was a good person.

“Because Zhou Hailan was afraid of being raped again. To her, being pregnant was the only way to ensure that she won’t get raped. She would do anything to protect her baby.”

He added, “That being said, if Zhou Hailan found out that the baby was Gu Mingchen’s, she’d know their purpose was to harm Gu Mingchen. Her love for Gu Mingchen was so deep that she could even ruin her looks and risk being burnt alive. So I doubt she would keep the baby if she knew their plan.”

Bai Rong met his gaze steadily. “After getting Gu Mingchen’s semen, why did those people impregnate Zhou Hailan instead of other women?”

“They were under the impression that Gu Mingchen would take care of his child if the mother was Zhou Hailan. If the mother was one of them, Gu Mingchen wouldn’t spare her life seeing how honorable he was.” Su Xuyan analyzed the situation for her.

Bai Rong’s eyes glinted as she creased her brows.

Su Xuyan’s explanation makes sense. Perhaps I was too prejudiced and misunderstood Zhou Hailan.

Since she’s not a spy, Gu Mingchen won’t be in danger.

“Su Xuyan, can you give me some time? Gu Mingchen and I are married. I need to divorce him before I can leave with you. But I’ll be with you for three years only. After that, you can’t force me to stay. Is that okay with you?” Bai Rong stated her final request.

“I won’t interfere with your decision to stay or leave after three years. But I don’t think it’s easy to get a divorce. The easiest way is to fake your death.” Su Xuyan had already come up with a plan.
