You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 148

Bai Rong paused and looked at Gu Mingchen as she tried to spot signs of him lying on his face, but found nothing.

He was more difficult to read than she had imagined.

Has he been dreaming of me all this time?

Has he ever missed me?

Even if I have decided not to look back and to cleanse my heart of desire, my heart is still hit hard.

“We met once three years ago on a train. When you saw me back then, you were unsettled by my pinky finger. Dreams are not necessarily memories. They could be something that we accidentally remembered. There was a mentally ill patient who talked about her own horror story. She talked about how her husband’s lover was called Sang Xue, and his illegitimate daughter was called Meng Yu. However, in reality, Sang Xue was her own daughter’s name, while Meng Yu was the name of her daughter’s classmate. The woman in your dreams had a pinky finger missing, and your subconscious mind felt that it was me. In reality, it might not actually be me.” Bai Rong explained.

“Alright, begin the treatment then.” Gu Mingchen sat on the chair.

Bai Rong composed herself and treated Gu Mingchen like any other ordinary patient.

“Three years ago, your memories ended in that accident.” Bai Rong started making conversation.

“How did you know my memories ended in that accident?” Gu Mingchen squinted his eyes in confusion as he stared defensively at Bai Rong.

Bai Rong realized she had misspoken, “We knew each other from before, right? I know things about you.”

“Alright, go on.” Gu Mingchen said rationally.

“Can you tell me in detail about the last thing in your memories?” Bai Rong asked.

Gu Mingchen had a dark look in his eyes, “Carnage, despair, suffering.”

Bai Rong shifted her gaze downwards as she felt that she was the suffering that Gu Mingchen was talking about.

That’s why he had forgotten about her existence.

Since he had chosen to forget her, why was he trying to remember her now?

Doing so would just be a burden for the both of them anyway.

Bai Rong stopped knocking on the table, “If your girlfriend were to give you a box, what would you hope to find inside?”

“There is no if.” Gu Mingchen said coldly.

“Chief Gu, you have very powerful insights and strong willpower, so you are difficult to get hypnotized. For clients like these, I will usually have them take a pill. Most of the time, they are unaware that they have taken it and it will lower their defenses which makes them easier to hypnotize. However, I feel that you would become even more defensive if I were to give you a pill for no reason.” Bai Rong retrieved a white bottle from her bag and took a pill out of it before holding it in front of Gu Mingchen.

Gu Mingchen stared at her, and she smiled, “Are you afraid of me poisoning you? This is your territory. If I poison you, I won’t make it out alive either. I don’t want to die just yet.”

Gu Mingchen held her hand and ate the pill directly from her palm.

Bai Rong felt like an electrical current shot through her body and pulled her hand back.

She felt something wet on her hand, and quickly wiped it on her shirt.

Gu Mingchen stared at her with displeasure as he kept the pill in his mouth before swallowing it with some water.

“Now, you may begin. And remember, mutual trust is important.” Gu Mingchen said in a dominant tone.

Bai Rong took her phone out and played some gentle music.

“It is a sunny morning and a gentle breeze grazes your cheeks, bringing with it waves of delicate fragrance. You take a deep breath and feel refreshed as you pass by the garden of roses and arrive at a meadow. The grass feels soft and comfortable on your soles. In the distance, you see the figure of a girl. She is dressed in a white gown as she sits barefooted on the grass. You slowly walk towards her…” Bai Rong said softly, and slowly looked towards Gu Mingchen.

Gu Mingchen had already fallen asleep as he leaned back on the chair with a stressful frown on his face.
