You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 157

“Yan, he may ask you about our past. Just say you don’t know anything and remember not to divulge any information, OK?” Bai Rong emphasized.

“I don’t think he will be asking that. Will he?” Liu Yan wasn’t very convinced.

“It’s best that he doesn’t. But just in case he does, remember to say you don’t know anything.” Bai Rong reminded her friend.

“OK. I understand. I need to surrender my phone now. Talk to you later.” After Liu Yan hung up, she handed over her phone to Gu Mingchen’s orderly.

She was brought to wait outside the chief’s office.

The man was sitting at his desk and stared into space, appearing to be deep in thought.

“Chief, Dr. Liu is here.” Lieutenant Song reported.

He snapped out of his daze and said, “Come in.”

Lieutenant Song pushed open the door and Liu Yan walked in, still baffled, and looked at Gu Mingchen in surprise.

However, Gu Mingchen remained expressionless. His unreadable eyes made it harder for Liu Yan to guess his intentions.

“Sit.” Although it was just one word, it made her all tensed up.

She sat opposite him with her eyes slightly downcast and kept fidgeting with her hands.

“You don’t have to be so nervous. I only want to ask you a few questions. How much do you know about Bai Rong and I?” Gu Mingchen went straight to the point.

The woman’s eyes widened in shock.

She couldn’t believe Bai Rong had correctly predicted his intentions.

Indeed, what he wanted to know was his relationship with her friend.

Liu Yan raised her eyebrows and said, “I only know a little.”

“What was the reason we broke up?” Gu Mingchen asked.

“Bai Rong was very tight-lipped. She never told me much because she did not want her friends to be implicated. I only know that you were very close last time and you loved her very much. There was once when Bai Rong disappeared for a week, and it was within that one week that you got engaged to Su Wanning. She was released the next day after your engagement ceremony and had lost her pinkie finger. Because of that, you chopped off your own finger too. From then on, Bai Rong started becoming more aloof. She even gave up on the job she loved to become a prosecutor instead. I am not sure what happened after she left A City.”

Liu Yan did not want to bring up the part where Bai Rong tried to end her life. It was still heart-wrenching even when she thought about it now.

“I loved her very much?” Gu Mingchen emphasized each word and narrowed his eyes.

“Of course. When you first knew Bai Rong, she was still married to Su Xuyan, but you insisted on being with her even then. Your love was strong enough to cross moral boundaries.” Liu Yan sighed.

“When we got together, she was still Su Xuyan’s wife?” Even Gu Mingchen himself was shocked at this piece of information.

He did not believe that he could be so irrational. How could he fall in love with someone else’s wife?

There must be some hidden secret behind it.

“Yes, I can confirm this. I am sure that when you first slept together, she was still married. Come to think of it, I should be blamed for that. Su Xuyan had the goods on me and used it to threaten Bai Rong not to divorce him. Otherwise, you two would have already been married long ago. There was one more thing that you might not be aware of, Bai Rong and Su Xuyan only had an empty shell marriage.” Liu Yan was very open to Gu Mingchen.

However, she was feeling frustrated as she did not know much about them. Otherwise, she could have given him more examples to prove to him how much he did indeed love Bai Rong.

“Empty shell marriage?” Gu Mingchen looked downwards to hide the sudden surge of emotions that reflected in his eyes.

“Yeah. Bai Rong used to stay at my place and you were always coming over. I had to find excuses every time to leave the space to the two of you. You always stayed the night. There is not much that you can do at night, if you know what I mean.” Liu Yan hinted.

The man cleared his throat.

He did not need it to be said out loud to know what a man and a woman could be doing in the middle of the night.

“What else do you know?” Gu Mingchen continued asking.
