You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 347

Chapter 347 Please Protect Bai

Liu Yan immediately understood what Shen Yiyan had in mind, but she had to confirm it anyway.

“So you’re saying that you’ll also let me travel abroad for a month if I help you secure that deal with Mo Xue?”

“That’s not all. I will also be giving you all of the jewelry companies I own in A City,” Shen Yiyan said.

“Seriously?” Liu Yan shot him a doubtful stare and said in disbelief, “If I get to travel and own all of those jewelry companies, what’s in it for you? I know you wouldn’t do anything for free.”

“You, Liu Yan. You are all that I want, and those jewelry companies mean nothing compared to you!” Shen Yiyan said with a smile.

Liu Yan got out of bed. “Please excuse me while I go puke my guts out.”

There was a hint of sadness in Shen Yiyan’s eyes when he watched her walk towards the bathroom.

Apart from the title of being his wife, he was able and willing to give her everything he had just to keep her by his side.

The next day, Liu Yan went to visit Wu Nian first thing in the morning and found her sweating all over as she jogged around the manor.

“Hey, Nian! I have something very important to tell you!”

Wu Nian stopped in her tracks and turned around when she heard Liu Yan calling out to her.

“Shen Yiyan said you should be fine now. You are recovering well, right?” Liu Yan asked.

Wu Nian nodded while wiping the sweat off her face. “That seems to be the case for now, but we should probably give it a bit more time to be sure.”

“Will you go back to Gu Mingchen when you’re fully recovered? You do have a child with him, so I’m guessing you still have some feelings towards him,” Liu Yan asked.

Wu Nian shook her head. “When I made that jump back then, I told myself I wouldn’t be a burden to Gu Mingchen anymore even if I were to somehow survive it. Given the state of my body, I’d still be in pretty bad shape even after recovering.”

Liu Yan held her by the hand and said, “Then come with me! We can go back to Dartan and live a happy life together!”

“I wasn’t planning on going back after leaving. I know what you’re thinking, Yan. You’re the only reason I’m still alive, and I am really thankful for what you did, but… Let’s just end it here. You should go and live the life that you want,” Wu Nian said with a smile.

“Shen Yiyan says he’ll kill you if I run away, so I can’t just leave you here!” Liu Yan said worriedly.

“What good would killing me do if you’ve already escaped? Nothing is going to happen to me, and if something does, then so be it. I’ve lived a good life, and I shall accept my fate as it is.”

“Shen Yiyan isn’t going to teach at the school if I leave. Given how much Gu Mingchen hates you, you wouldn’t be able to see Yanny either!”

“This is where my soul now resides, and every day I live is a gift I don’t even deserve. I don’t want to leave and spend the rest of my life like a walking corpse. I’m glad to have had you as a friend, Yan, and there is nothing more that I could possibly want.” Wu Nian was adamant about her decision.

Liu Yan lowered her gaze.

She knew she had no way of persuading Bai Rong, and that has always been the case.

Even so, she had to ensure the safety of Wu Nian and her family before leaving.

Liu Yan didn’t have many connections, so Gu Mingchen was the only one with the ability and resources to help her out.

“I understand… Oh, by the way, there’s something else I wanted to tell you. Shen Yiyan told me the guy you saved on the plane last night is an Ustranasion. His name is Aaron, and he’s a good friend of Stephen’s. Of course, I’m perfectly fine with it if you choose to help Gu Mingchen.”

“There’s no way I’d prioritize Gu Mingchen’s business over your freedom. I’ll do my best to help you out, so just tell me what you need me to do,” Wu Nian said readily.

“According to Shen Yiyan, Gu Mingchen and Su Xuyan are hell-bent on acquiring Dream Girl because they want to collaborate with Mo Xue in her jewelry business in A City. However, Mo Xue cares more about the artist of the painting than the painting itself.”

“All right, I know what to do. I won’t be attending the auction tomorrow since Gu Mingchen and Shen Yiyan will be there. In the event that you are unable to acquire the painting for yourself, just give me Aaron’s number and I’ll contact him personally.” Wu Nian hit the nail on the head.

“I…I don’t have Aaron’s number, but Shen Yiyan says Aaron will be there tomorrow as well,” Liu Yan explained.

“I’m sure Shen Yiyan has his number,” Wu Nian said confidently.

Shen Yiyan returned to his country that night as something had come up.

Meanwhile, Liu Yan had a terrible dream throughout the night.

She dreamt of herself escaping on a boat while watching helplessly as Shen Yiyan drove a dagger through Wu Nian’s heart. To make matters worse, Wu Nian was smiling at her while telling her that it was all right, and that she should live on.

After crying her eyes out, she turned around and saw her parents on the boat with her.

“We’re all safe now,” her mother said.

Suddenly, Shen Yiyan caught up to them and grabbed hold of her father.

The two of them then disappeared into the ocean, and Liu Yan couldn’t find her father anywhere after that.

She was still crying when she woke up from her nightmare. She looked at the clock and saw that it was three in the morning, but she wasn’t able to fall asleep anymore.

The dream felt too real, and Liu Yan was afraid that her leaving would really result in the death of those she cared deeply about.

She sat curled up by the edge of the bed until dawn before reaching for her phone to make a call.

“Hello? Who is this?” Gu Mingchen’s deep voice was heard on the other line.

“Hey, Gu Mingchen. It’s me, Liu Yan. Look, there’s something I want to ask you. If Bai Rong is still alive today, but there’s someone really powerful that wants her dead, would you be able to keep her safe? I’m talking about someone way more powerful than you could ever imagine,” Liu Yan asked.

“I will protect her with my life, no matter how powerful the person is.” Gu Mingchen replied without any hesitation, but the tone of his voice sounded somewhat cold.

“I can tell you where Bai Rong is, but you have to keep her safe. Oh, and I need you to protect my parents too. Could you do that for me?” Liu Yan asked worriedly.

A look of suspicion flashed past Gu Mingchen’s eyes, and he continued after a brief pause, “Shouldn’t you be going to Shen Yiyan for help instead? He’s way more powerful than I am right now.”

“Back then, Bai Rong was infected by the virus and forced to jump into the sea by Su Xuyan. She got rescued later on, but was unconscious and barely alive. Your men rescued me at the time, but Shen Yiyan found me and said he could save her under the condition that I stay by his side. I agreed to his terms as I was worried about Bai Rong, and he really did keep his word. Bai Rong has been receiving treatment throughout the past two years, during which she received a bone marrow transplant and changed her appearance with plastic surgery. Her current identity is Wu Nian.”
