You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 336

Chapter 336 She Has An Indescribable Relationship With Gu Mingchen

Wu Nian knew that Liu Yan was concerned about her wellbeing. The reason for her harsh words was due to her love for Wu Nian.

“It’s not what it looks like. Gu Mingchen was angry with Yanny visiting me yesterday. He hit me by accident when I was trying to protect Yanny,” Wu Nian explained softly.

“Such grave injuries can’t be caused by accident! Do you think I’m blind—I can’t see those wounds on your back?” Liu Yan snapped angrily.

When Wu Nian saw Liu Yan turned agitated, she quickly pushed herself up and clasped Liu Yan’s hands. “Trust me. I’m fine,” she reassured Liu Yan earnestly.

“Quick, you should check the mirror,” Liu Yan nagged and helped Wu Nian to her feet. “Your eyes are red and swollen. You just had an operation on your eyes—crying so much will do nothing but harm.”

When Wu Nian entered the washroom, she caught sight of her swollen and bloodshot eyes in the mirror’s reflection.

No wonder Liu Yan didn’t believe me.

Wu Nian sighed as she brushed her teeth and combed through her tangled hair before emerging from the bathroom.

“What are you going to do next?” Liu Yan sighed. She wasn’t in a mood to continue berating Wu Nian.

“I’m going to forget everything and accompany my dearest friend on an exciting vacation,” Wu Nian said with a grin.

“When we are back from our holiday, I will ask Shen Yiyan to pull some strings so that you can teach in Yanny’s school,” Liu Yan added.

Wu Nian looked at Liu Yan with gratitude. Yet, she couldn’t help but feel a hint of guilt. “I’m sorry for bothering you,” Wu Nian said sheepishly.

“I’m more than happy to help. I’ll get mad if you try to do everything alone. If you ever fall sick, don’t try to handle it alone.” Liu Yan swung her hand over Wu Nian’s shoulder. “We can always rely on each other, okay?”

“Don’t you want to reconcile with your parents? After all, it wasn’t your fault—you didn’t have a choice back then,” Wu Nian nodded and asked worriedly.

“It’s fine. They would get mad if they find out about my relationship with Shen Yiyan. Besides, us being on bad terms would mean Shen Yiyan will not target my parents. Ah, let’s not talk about this anymore. I’ll go and buy you breakfast.” Liu Yan headed towards the exit.

“I think I can be discharged now.” Wu Nian clutched Liu Yan’s arm and said excitedly, “Let’s go together.”

“Alright.”

Wu Nian exited the room in search of her doctor so that she could obtain a discharge slip.

“Hello, Mr. Gu. It’s me, Wu Nian.” She made a call to Gu Mingchen.

“What’s the matter?” Gu Mingchen replied coldly.

Upon hearing his stoic tone, she could feel her heart turn cold. “You don’t have to come here anymore. I’m in the midst of my discharge procedure,” she told him lowly.

“I’ve arrived at the entrance. Tell Yanny yourself.” Gu Mingchen hung up the call as soon as he finished speaking.

Wu Nian stared at her phone in disbelief. Gu Mingchen has such a horrible temper!

How dare he behaves so arrogantly when he is the one at fault!

Wu Nian took a deep breath to regain her composure.

“Drink more water when you get home. The wound has started to heal. If it’s itchy, try not to scratch it. I have given you some vitamins to relieve the itching. Additionally, don’t consume any alcohol or spicy foods. If you experience feverish symptoms, you should visit a doctor immediately,” the doctor advised her.

“Alright, thank you.” Wu Nian took the discharge slip and returned to her room. On the way back, she caught sight of Gu Mingchen and Yanny walking out of the elevator.

“Nian!” Gu Yan exclaimed happily and rushed towards Wu Nian.

“You should call her Aunt Gu,” Gu Mingchen reminded him sternly as he frowned and held Yanny back.

“Huh.” The corners of Wu Nian’s lips twitched upon Gu Mingchen’s remark.

Gu Mingchen remained silent as he looked at Wu Nian.

Wu Nian pulled the corner of her eye down mockingly and met his stare with a provocative gaze.

“Don’t you have things to discuss with Yanny?” Gu Mingchen asked in displeasure.

Wu Nian decided to rein her temper. She wouldn’t be able to beat him—butting heads with Gu Mingchen would only bring more trouble.

“Yanny, I’ve recovered already. I will be discharged from the hospital soon. You don’t have to worry about me. You will be starting school tomorrow. Remember to study hard, alright?” she fondly said as she squatted in front of Yanny.

“Are you not going to take care of me anymore?” Yanny sniffled and asked Gu Mingchen.

Gu Mingchen rejected his plea coldly. “She’s unsuitable. I will find you a better caretaker,” he said darkly.

Wu Nian rose to her feet with an empty expression.

“I was wondering why you weren’t back yet,” Liu Yan sneered, “It seems that you’ve bumped into a beast.”

“Ask your friend to keep her distance from me,” Gu Mingchen uttered coldly as his sharp gaze swept towards Liu Yan.

“I should have kept Bai Rong away from you. Letting her close to you is my biggest regret. If it weren’t for you, maybe she’d still be alive,” Liu Yan spat angrily.

“She is not yet dead in my heart, unlike you,” Gu Mingchen retorted icily.

“Soon, you will regret what you did today,” Liu Yan warned him profoundly.

“Really?” Gu Mingchen replied sarcastically. He held on to Yanny’s hand. “Yanny, let’s go.”

Gu Yan looked wistfully at Wu Nian, who was smiling back at him warmly.

The boy lowered his head and followed Gu Mingchen into the elevator. Once more, he turned to look at Wu Nian.

Her affectionate gaze was fixed on the boy until the elevator doors slid shut.

“If Gu Mingchen finds out that you are…” Liu Yan began hesitantly.

“Liu Yan,” Wu Nian interjected before Liu Yan could finish talking. “Don’t harbor such thoughts. Promise me that he should never find out. Even if he does, he shouldn’t hear it from you,” Wu Nian reminded her.

Liu Yan sighed in defeat. “Let’s go get breakfast. I’ll send you back to the hotel and go make some preparations. Tomorrow, we can set off to Corlean.”

“Let’s eat in the hotel. It should have breakfast service,” Wu Nian suggested.

The staff at the front desk called out after Wu Nian as they walked past the lobby. “Ms. Wu, your room has already been paid up to Saturday. Are you staying here for the night?” the staff asked.

“Didn’t I pay by credit card already? Can’t you just charge the additional amount to my card upon check-out?”

“I didn’t mean it that way. A man has paid for your stay until Saturday,” the staff explained.

Realization dawned upon Wu Nian. Previously, she’d agreed with Gu Mingchen to start work on Sunday. She figured that Gu Mingchen did that because he wanted to gauge her spending capability.

“Alright, I will stay here for one more night. I will check out tomorrow,” Wu Nian replied softly.

“Who was the man that helped you settle your bill?” Liu Yan asked curiously.

“Gu Mingchen,” Wu Nian replied and glanced at Liu Yan.

“It’s him again. I’m not looking forward to this at all,” Liu Yan sighed again.

They headed towards the elevator. With a ding, the elevator doors slid open to reveal Su Xuyan. He was accompanied by a beautiful woman.

At the sight of Wu Nian, he jolted in astonishment. What was more shocking was that Liu Yan was at her side. His stare shifted back to Wu Nian again as they locked gazes.
