You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 368

Chapter 368 All Good Things Come To An End

“Keep in touch,” Wu Nian replied in a deep voice. She couldn’t help but feel a sense of sorrow as she spoke.

She was unfortunate, but she was still lucky compared to Xia He.

At the very least, she had a friend, a lover, and a child. Even though they were all separated, they all still missed each other.

On the other hand, Xia He had been accused of treason when she was very young. As such, she had to be on the run and couldn’t go home nor make friends with others like an ordinary human being.

Therefore, never complain you’re in a difficult situation, but adapt and change it. Instead, strive to live a better life. There will always be someone who lives an even bitter life somewhere in the world but preserve nonetheless.

“Nian, Nian,” Liu Yan called her name a few times and pushed her gently.

A moment later, Wu Nian recollected herself.

“What’s on your mind? You seemed to be at a loss,” Liu Yan asked, concern lacing her tone.

“Su Xuyan is also here.”

“That wretch!” Liu Yan sneered vehemently. “You should be lovey-dovey with Aaron now to make him give up on you.”

However, Wu Nian didn’t utter a word. She took out the five crabs Gu Mingchen had grilled and put them on a leaf.

After a while, Aaron arrived at the barbecue fire. He put down the bucket and inhaled deeply. “It smells so good. The food makes me salivate.”

“The crabs near Liu Yan were grilled earlier and are not that hot now. You can try those,” Wu Nian told him.

At that, he sat in front of her and began to remove the crab meat.

Meanwhile, Liu Yan glanced at the bucket and asked Aaron excitedly, “How could you get many sea urchins?”

“Well, a lot of sea urchins were over there. I grabbed almost all of them, from grandpas and grandmas to their grandchildren,” Aaron joked.

Wu Nian burst into laughter. “In that case, should they thank you for the reunion?”

“It’s better to die with dignity. They’ve fulfilled their life goal to become our food. Besides, they’ve set a good example for other sea urchins to learn from,” Aaron replied laughingly.

Wu Nian put on a broad smile on her face and said, “Do you have a knife?”

“Of course I do.” He took out a sharp pocketknife to cut open a sea urchin and remove its meat.

Liu Yan googled sea urchins when they were chatting. “Nian, according to Google, sea urchins are poisonous during their breeding season.”

“Poisonous sea urchins are colorful and mostly found in tropical areas. The ones I collected are non-poisonous and edible,” Aaron reassured them.

“It says sea urchins are good for enhancing stamina, sex, heart, bones, and blood. They are particularly beneficial for men’s health, but having too much will lead to…” Liu Yan stopped reading it and gazed at Wu Nian intently.

Wu Nian got what she meant.

After all, she and Gu Mingchen used to have sea urchins at the seaside. After that, the androgens in his body obviously increased a lot and led to an embarrassing physical reaction.

“We should grill the sea urchins. Since we don’t have mustard, we might consume a lot of marine bacteria by having raw sea urchins.” As Wu Nian spoke, she grabbed a few sea urchins and put them on the stone slate.

Aaron smiled and didn’t stop her. “Was Mr. Shen here too? Why did he leave so soon?”

Wu Nian’s heart instantly skipped a beat, but she didn’t reply to his query. A moment later, Liu Yan explained, “Well, he was just a passer-by. He sat here for a while and left.”

“I see,” Aaron murmured a response. He was polite enough not to dwell on the subject.

After that, he began sharing what he saw all over the world. He spoke of the Great Wall, geishas, grasslands, pyramids, the Bermuda Triangle, the aurora in the North Pole, Mayan sacrificial altars, and so on.

The man was indeed eloquent and knowledgeable. He vividly introduced the tourist attractions, making everyone curious and look forward to visiting such places.

“You’re rather young. How have you been to so many places?” Liu Yan asked in admiration.

“When I was at university, I would visit one to two places every year and stay there for a month. It eventually became a habit to do so. I wish to visit a hundred mysterious places around the world while I’m still alive,” he explained gently. He glanced at Wu Nian and added, “From now on, I don’t have to travel solo.”

Liu Yan gazed at Wu Nian smilingly, understanding Aaron’s hint.

A moment later, Wu Nian put her hair behind her ear and glanced at Aaron. “Some love traveling, some love working out, while other love playing games. I prefer attending family parties.”

She skillfully shifted the subject of the conversation.

“All good things will come to an end, including parties. We’ll feel even more lonely after the bustle,” Aaron sighed.

“I’ll look forward to the next party exactly because I feel lonely,” Wu Nian replied smilingly. Meanwhile, her eyes looked like two beautiful crescent lakes that reflected the moonlight.

Aaron’s lips curled into a smile as well.

Given that too many scenic places in the world were well worth a visit, he hadn’t felt like visiting the same place twice so far. Instead, he would choose the next destination after every visit.

If he were to describe Wu Nian with scenery, it would be fantasy.

In the fantasy, he could enjoy watching all sorts of different breathtaking sceneries.

Deep in his heart, she was the only scenery he would always want to look back and enjoy watching.

After getting up, Aaron leaned toward Wu Nian to kiss her forehead and said gently, “I’m willing to organize a family party every week for you. This is my promise. It’s not empty talk.”

Wu Nian gazed into his eyes, feeling a little touched.

On the other hand, Liu Yan quietly stood up and left, giving them space to spend time with each other.

When she was in the midst of leaving, Wu Nian turned around and gazed at her.

Meanwhile, Aaron sat on the spot where Liu Yan sat earlier and looked at her too. After a while, he asked, “She seems to have a special relationship with Mr. Gu. Were they a couple in the past?”

Wu Nian was at a loss for words.

“No, they knew each other a long time ago,” Wu Nian explained.

“They are always at each other’s throats, but they look lovely nonetheless. I mean, any outsider can easily sense the special kind of hormone when they look at each other. Besides, Mr. Gu purposely hasn’t been harsh to her.”

“Really?” Wu Nian let out a chuckle but didn’t utter a word anymore. Instead, she gazed at the sea far away from her, enjoying the serenity around her.

Meanwhile, Aaron moved closer to her and wrapped his hand around her shoulder. Then, he gently placed her head on his shoulder.

“Well, well, why would Gu Mingchen be that generous to tell me that you’re at the beach? The scenery is breathtakingly beautiful, so much so that I can’t stare at it for more than a second,” Su Xuyan said coldly as he strolled past them. However, his piercing eyes were fixated on Wu Nian.

Wu Nian wasn’t sure why Su Xuyan was irritated. After all, they weren’t supposed to be close because she changed her identity.

“You can turn away if this isn’t something you want to see. Since you still look at it anyway, can I say that you’re a busybody?” Wu Nian spoke bluntly.

“You’re still as witty as before. Well, undergoing plastic surgery doesn’t change your natural personality.”
