You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 349

Chapter 349 Pot Calling The Kettle Black

Past mistakes have a tendency to come back and bite one in the neck later on.

Such was the case for Su Xuyan who couldn’t deny those statements regarding his past as they were the facts. “I was young and foolish back then, and I have come to regret what I did.”

“Really? In that case, you should reflect on your mistakes instead of flirting around with other women. Excuse me,” Wu Nian said as she stood up and walked away.

Su Xuyan had thought of saying something, but the words were stuck in his throat, and he could watch as she disappeared into the crowd.

“Haha…” Liu Yan let out a chuckle, and Su Xuyan shot her a fierce glare in response.

“You wouldn’t still be alive today if everyone ran their mouths like you do.”

“Correction, I’m not running my mouth. I’m just upholding justice by stating the facts.”

“Oh? You mean facts like you sleeping around with a married man like Shen Yiyan and even having an illegitimate child with him? What do you think will happen if either his wife or the public were to find out about this?” Su Xuyan asked coldly.

Liu Yan’s smile was frozen in place when she heard him bring up the most humiliating fact about her.

“You think I want to?” She was trembling with rage.

“I believe you know what you should and shouldn’t say, then. Don’t do unto others what you don’t want done unto you,” Su Xuyan said coldly before walking off.

Liu Yan pursed her lips and gritted her teeth in anger. It’s scumbags like these that make good guys so much more precious!

She found Wu Nian staring out the window at the hotel entrance, seemingly lost in deep thought.

“Su Xuyan sure is an annoying a**hole!” Liu Yan grumbled.

“He’s a lost cause. We should just stay away from him in the future,” Wu Nian said without even turning around.

“Yeah…” Liu Yan mumbled and looked in the direction that Wu Nian was staring at.

There was an expensive-looking Rolls-Royce parked outside. A chauffeur wearing white gloves opened the door, and Gu Mingchen stepped out of the car. He then looked up at the hotel building as if he had felt their gaze from the window above.

“Do you think he saw us?” Liu Yan asked.

“I don’t know,” Wu Nian replied.

She was still standing by the window as Gu Mingchen began making his way towards the hotel.

“Do you want to maybe head inside to avoid him? Don’t want him to think we’re spying on him, right?” Liu Yan suggested.

“Avoiding him will make us look even more suspicious. We’ll just ignore him.” Wu Nian insisted on standing by the window.

After coming out of the elevator, Gu Mingchen walked straight into the reception hall without even looking at them, much to Liu Yan’s dismay.

After everything I’ve told him about Bai Rong… Gu Mingchen is a lot more heartless than I thought…

“Gu Mingchen sure is heartless! I’ve already told him…” Liu Yan stopped herself when she realized she almost let it slip.

Wu Nian looked at her. “What did you tell him?”

“I told him how similar you are to Bai Rong in terms of your voice, your temper, and your personality. I can’t believe he’d treat you like this! It makes me so mad!”

Wu Nian flashed her a wry smile. “I think he hates me precisely because of these similarities. Gu Mingchen is a very defensive person, so he won’t just open up to people so easily.”

“Why don’t you just forget about Gu Mingchen and marry someone you like? Have kids and start a new life, you know?” Liu Yan asked.

“All right, enough talk about him. I think the auction is about to begin.” Wu Nian said when she noticed the guests making their way towards the conference hall.

“Yeah, it should be.” Liu Yan said with a frown as she glanced at the elevator.

Damn it, why isn’t Aaron here yet?

“Are you waiting on someone?” Wu Nian asked when she noticed Liu Yan glancing about.

“Yeah, Aaron isn’t here yet. Do you think he’ll be a no-show?” Liu Yan asked worriedly.

“Did he say he was coming? He had a collapsed lung the other day, didn’t he? On top of that, he has asthma, so I doubt he’d show up in a crowded place like this.”

“Shen Yiyan said he’d come.” The elevator doors opened the moment Liu Yan said that, and Aaron could be seen walking towards them in a light blue suit.

“He’s here! He’s really here!” Liu Yan shouted excitedly while grabbing Wu Nian by the hand.

Aaron flashed Wu Nian a slight smile as he eyed her from head to toe. “I didn’t think I’d see you here tonight. You said you’d give me your number if we were to meet again, remember?”

Liu Yan looked at Wu Nian excitedly, only to notice that she was completely calm and composed.

“Putting that aside, I am curious as to why you’d risk your life showing up here tonight,” Wu Nian said coldly.

“There’s something here that I want, and my grandmother insisted that I get it,” Aaron explained.

“Does your grandmother not know about your condition?” Wu Nian asked with a chuckle before walking towards the conference hall.

Liu Yan shot Aaron a quick glance before running after Wu Nian. “Hey, aren’t you going to get his number?”

“We won’t even need to contact him if we manage to acquire Dream Girl. Even if we fail to, I’m pretty sure Shen Yiyan has his number anyway, so we can just get it from him later on,” Wu Nian replied calmly.

Liu Yan pursed her lips in disappointment and took another look at Aaron as she thought to herself.

Damn it, I was hoping to see them get together… Bai Rong calling Gu Mingchen defensive is like the pot calling the kettle black.

After making their way into the conference hall, Liu Yan registered herself using her identification card and credit card.

The two then made sat down in a corner after getting a paddle from the counter.

Su Xuyan got out of his seat in the first row and moved over to the one next to Wu Nian when he saw her. “Is this seat taken?” he asked with the most harmless smile he could put on.

“You want to take it?” Wu Nian asked him in return.

“Yeah.” Su Xuyan made no effort to deny his intention.

Wu Nian chuckled. “Perfect! I wanted to get myself a seat in the first row, but you took it before I could. Thanks for giving it up!”

She then grabbed Liu Yan by the arm and led her to the first row where Su Xuyan was originally seated.

Liu Yan snuck a glance at Su Xuyan and said with a chuckle, “That was a slick move, Nian! Su Xuyan looks so mad!”

Wu Nian frowned. “His persistence is such a pain in the neck, though. Hmm… Maybe…”

Her eyes lit up all of a sudden as an idea formed in her head.
