You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 126

Bai Rong sat on the sofa as she waited throughout the night for Gu Mingchen to contact her.

She didn’t dare sleep as she was afraid that she would miss his call.

In fact, she couldn’t fall asleep even if she wanted to anyway, as she was unable to relax until she heard from Gu Mingchen.

Three days passed by without any movements and Bai Rong lay weakly on the sofa looking at her phone.

She hadn’t eaten at all, and Zhou Min was getting worried, “Bai Rong, eat something and get some rest. I’ll watch the phone for you. As soon as the chief calls, I’ll let you know immediately. If you were to fall ill, the chief would be upset.”

Bai Rong kept quiet as she stared at the phone with an empty look in her eyes.

“Actually, no news is also good news, right? Come, eat some.” Zhou Min knelt in front of Bai Rong.

“Something must’ve happened to Gu Mingchen. He wouldn’t just leave me hanging like this if he’s fine.” Bai Rong said with certainty.

It was unusual in itself to have no news at all after three days.

Zhou Min was also convinced that something had happened to Gu Mingchen, “How about you try calling Chief’s parents? They must know what’s going on.”

Zhou Min’s words seemed to have reminded Bai Rong, and there was a glimmer of hope in her eyes.

At that moment, she could care less about being with Gu Mingchen and only wished for his safety.

She rang to Song Xiyu, who answered the phone.

“Hello, this is Bai Rong.” Bai Rong sat upright nervously.

“Yes, I know.” Song Xiyu’s voice sounded very calm.

“I would like to know if Gu Mingchen is alright.” Bai Rong asked directly.

Song Xiyu went silent.

“I just want to know if he’s alright.” Bai Rong frowned as she was afraid that Song Xiyu wouldn’t tell her.

Song Xiyu took a deep breath, “He had accomplished his mission excellently. He annihilated the enemy and destroyed all their dangerous weapons. But his head was injured from the battle and he fell into the sea. He nearly drowned while trying desperately to swim back to shore, and is now in a critical condition due to prolonged hypoxia.”

Bai Rong’s tears fell immediately upon hearing that.

She knew something had happened to him.

“Has his conditions stabilized yet?” Bai Rong sobbed as she asked.

She would not continue living all by herself either if he had died.

“Yes, but he has lost a lot of his memories as his brain has sustained severe injuries. I think he probably doesn’t recognize you anymore. Perhaps this is a good opportunity for you, as you are safe now that he is gone from your life completely.” Song Xiyu said softly.

Bai Rong went blank.

It felt like she had seen the most beautiful scenery in the world, but it was getting further and further away from her.

She found it regrettable, but perhaps it was the best possible outcome.

Song Xiyu hung up, while Bai Rong stood completely still with an empty look in her eyes.

“Bai Rong, what happened? Don’t scare me like that!” Zhou Min grabbed hold of Bai Rong, but the latter pushed her away and walked out of the room.
