You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 194

Bai Rong had no inkling of where he was taking her.

Anyway, Gu Mingchen could not force her to do anything.

“How long more before we can reach?” Bai Rong asked as she looked at the pitch-black sky outside.

“Around one and a half hours.” Gu Mingchen replied.

“Wake me up when we arrive.” She leaned against the seat and closed her eyes.

Gu Mingchen took off his suit and draped it over her body.

As Bai Rong had not slept yet, she could smell the faint tobacco smell on his clothes.

Had he been smoking the entire time?

She did not like the smell of tobacco so she opened her eyes and looked at him.

Three years had passed and Gu Mingchen grew more mature, introverted and quiet. However, he could still give others a sense of security. Perhaps, this was a soldier’s unique characteristic.

“Don’t smoke in the future. It’s not good for your body.” Bai Rong said gently.

“I didn’t like to smoke in the past. I’ve been losing sleep during the past three years and my state of mind isn’t that good. I’m facing a lot of pressure at work too, so I’ve been smoking a lot, so much that it has already become a habit. Keep an eye on me in the future.” Gu Mingchen said seriously.

Bai Rong turned her head away and faced the window quietly, looking at their reflections on the window.

“Chief, can I give you a psychological test?” Bai Rong asked gently.

“Sure. Go ahead.”

“If you’re watching a horror movie, where do you think the ghost would appear? 1. Lift; 2. Toilet; 3. Under the table; 4. Storage closet.” After asking, Bai Rong looked at Gu Mingchen.

“I never watch horror movies and I don’t believe that ghosts exist.” Gu Mingchen replied in a deep voice.

Bai Rong was speechless.

“Let me change the question. Suppose you’re walking on the streets one day and you see someone almost getting knocked over. Do you hope that the person is a 1. Woman; 2. Man; 3. Child; or 4. Elderly? Choose.” Bai Rong was slightly mad as he was not cooperating at all.

“What does the person have anything to do with me?” Gu Mingchen asked confusedly.

Deciding to ignore him, Bai Rong swiveled her head away.

Gu Mingchen frowned. “If I had to choose, I’ll hope that he’s a man.”

Bai Rong understood and nodded. “Okay, I know now.”

“What do you know? Can you tell me the results?” Gu Mingchen asked.

“People who choose the second option are strong and courageous. They do things efficiently and directly. Although they’re rational, they shun trouble too. It’s also very difficult for them to be tempted outside external temptations. This type of people have their own goals and ideas, and are relatively more mature. They’re… the ideal type of spouses.” Bai Rong was reluctant to say the last sentence.

Gu Mingchen smiled. His smile was very light and almost unnoticeable. “Do you know why I chose the second option?”

“Why?”

“The elderly person is too old. Even if he had barely avoided the collision, his blood pressure will still rise and his heart might not be able to take it.”

“The child is too young and might be traumatized after being shocked.”

“Women are too troublesome.”

“If the man is agile enough to evade it, then they’ll probably brush this incident behind them.” Gu Mingchen analyzed.

“I think you are prejudiced against women. How are women troublesome?” Bai Rong asked persistently.

“If the woman was almost hit, she would definitely call her boyfriend to complain and might even start an argument with the driver.”

“Gu Mingchen, so you didn’t have a girlfriend for so many years because you’re scared of trouble?” Bai Rong interrupted. “If the person is me, do you think I’ll call and complain to you, or argue with the driver?”
