You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 267

Chapter 267 Still There

Bai Rong’s heart throbbed. Grabbing Gu Mingchen’s hands hastily, she said with a pained expression, “Why are you so stubborn?”

“Don’t you think that you are the one who’s clinging onto the past? What you believe in may not necessarily be what’s right.”

“But you’re a father now! You have a son with Zhou Hailan. You have to take responsibility for that instead of wasting your time on someone like me!” Bai Rong protested.

“Though I didn’t wish for that child to be born, I will take responsibility for him because he’s my biological son. I will be a father to him, but that should not be an obstacle between us in any way!” Gu Mingchen looked fired up too.

“How many times must I tell you? You’ll never… “ Before Bai Rong could finish her sentence, Gu Mingchen pulled her close and sealed her lips with his.

Thud! Thud! Thud! Just then, Su Xuyan knocked on the door of her room.

Bai Rong glanced toward the door in fear. She felt as if every muscle in her body was tensing up.

“Rong, are you talking to someone?” Su Xuyan had heard suspicious sounds coming from her room.

Glaring back at Gu Mingchen angrily, Bai Rong threw her small fists onto his chest.

Gu Mingchen pursed his lips and held her hands with a forlorn expression. “I’ll come to find you again in two days. Call me if anything happens.”

With that, he pecked her lips lightly and left the room via the window.

“Rong?” Su Xuyan’s voice was sounding more and more urgent. “Rong!”

Bai Rong inhaled deeply. Gosh, he is going to break through the door, isn’t he? ”Hold on!”

She dashed toward the wine cabinet, grabbed a bottle of red wine, and took a big gulp before spilling some onto herself. After pouring away half of the bottle in the bathroom, she placed the wine bottle by her bed and finally opened the door.

Su Xuyan was greeted by her flushed face. “Did you drink?”

“Yeah,” Bai Rong answered.

Su Xuyan swept his eyes across the room. There was no one other than Bai Rong. “Who were you talking to?”

“I was talking to myself.” Bai Rong stared at him with droopy eyes.

Still looking a little doubtful, Su Xuyan picked up her phone to check. It had been turned off.

After switching her phone on, he checked through her call history, but there were no records since the call that he made just now.

Raising an eyebrow, he seemed to have finally believed her words.

“What were you talking about? I can be your listener,” Su Xuyan said, putting down her phone.

Bai Rong did not have much to say to Su Xuyan, but she wanted to be careful such that she would not expose her lies.

“I was practicing how to hurl insults at people,” Bai Rong replied slowly.

Su Xuyan blinked. “I think you’re pretty good at that, to begin with.”

“Is that a compliment?” Bai Rong asked.

Pursing his lips, Su Xuyan walked further into her room and sat down on the sofa. “How about you practice with me? I can give you some constructive criticisms.”

“I… I can’t do it in front of you.” Bai Rong looked a little uncomfortable.

“Hah… It’s actually pretty cute… Practicing how to hurl insults at someone this late at night… “ Su Xuyan chuckled.

“My head hurts. I want to sleep now.” Bai Rong did not want him to stay any longer. Feeling a little uneasy about how her lies would hold up, she looked down, grabbed the wine bottle, and put it back into the wine cabinet.

Suddenly, Su Xuyan hugged her from behind and inhaled deeply, drowning himself in her sweet scent and the smell of alcohol on her body. “Rong, now that I’ve entered your room, I don’t want to leave anymore,” he grunted.

Bai Rong’s brows furrowed even further.

Su Xuyan and Gu Mingchen seemed to resemble each other in the oddest aspects. This is kind of like the “like poles repel” theory, isn’t it? Maybe they don’t get along well simply because they are way too similar to each other.

Bai Rong knew that it would be too risky to sleep on the same bed with Su Xuyan, even if she had her period as an excuse to protect her. Moreover, if she were to let him stay that night, it would be difficult to kick him out afterward.

“I can’t fall asleep with you around,” Bai Rong said firmly.

“Then, how about you don’t lock your door? I’ll come in after you fall asleep. Bai Rong, you need to get used to being with me. Aren’t we spending the rest of our lives together?” Su Xuyan asked gently, licking her pink earlobe.
