You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 18

It was already late evening.

Bai Rong had just finished a surgery and was on her way back to her office when she saw Gu Mingchen leaning on the wall beside her office, waiting for her.

Bai Rong was surprised by his appearance.

With his identity, his visit should be welcomed by the director himself.

So how did he manage to come in and even willingly waited for her in such a low profile?

Bai Rong approached him immediately. Seeing the ugly bandage on his arm, Bai Rong commented, “Seems like the skills of the doctors at your base are pretty sub-standard.”

The man gave her a side-eye.

The fact was, most of the nurses at the base were always fangirling over him whenever they saw him. He was frustrated by those attention-seeking gazes, hence he decided to bandage the wound on his own.

His gaze darkened as he fixated on her lips, which was obviously injured by a rough bite.

The man’s fingers brushed across Bai Rong’s lips in a wiping gesture. A tingling sensation was felt along the skin his fingers trailed past.

The electrifying feeling made Bai Rong jump back in shock as she avoided his hand.

Gu Mingchen’s eyes darkened at her avoidance, “What happened to your lips?”

“I bit it myself.” Bai Rong replied guiltily and went past him to her office.

Once she entered, the girl lowered her head to retrieve some Iodine and bandages from her drawer. Then, she tried to change the topic, “Let me rebandage your wound.”

The man obediently sat opposite her desk and placed his injured arm on the table.

Bai Rong slowly removed the bandage and changed into a new one with great focus. Then, she instructed, “Don’t wet the wound, or else it might get infected and you’ll have a bad fever. Just wait for it to form a scab and it’ll heal properly.”

However, her words fell into deaf ears as Gu Mingchen was busy staring at her injured lips with a deep frown.

Upon closer inspection, he noticed that one side of her face was slightly swollen as well.

“You got hit?” Gu Mingchen guessed.

Bai Rong paused her actions while sorrow filled her eyes. She then replied in a soft voice, “This is the last time. Everything will come to an end soon.”

“What do you mean?” Gu Mingchen asked in confusion.

Bai Rong merely shook her head and refused to discuss further.

Gu Mingchen tilted his face. He was mad at himself.

Once Bai Rong was done bandaging, he stood up and nudged his chin towards the door. “Let’s go, Lieutenant Shang is waiting outside.”

He spoke with a finite tone, leaving her no ground to reject.

Bai Rong had no choice but to follow him out.

When they reached the car park, a Rolls-Royce was waiting for them instead of his usual Range Rover.

Lieutenant Shang opened the door for them as he inquired Bai Rong, “You’ve been busy, Dr. Bai? Our Chief has been waiting for you for two hours.”

“Ahh.” That was awkward. The girl explained, “I was doing a surgery. Sorry.”

“My bad for not calling you first. Not your problem.” Gu Mingchen replied coolly and settled himself at the backseat.

Bai Rong climbed up beside him as well.

The chief had a very tall figure, in which almost half of his height was dominated by his long legs.

Throughout the journey, his long legs would touch Bai Rong’s knees due to the small space.

Bai Rong was a bit uneasy with their skin ship. She broke the silence with a question, “Where are we heading to?”

“Shuiyue International. We can shop for clothes after our dinner there.” Gu Mingchen replied as he side-eyed the girl before adding nonchalantly, “What do you want to eat? Oriental or Western food?”
