You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 367

Chapter 367 Pull Away In A Relationship

“I miss moments like these.” After grabbing a crab, Gu Mingchen cracked it open and blew on it to cool it down.

Wu Nian never thought he would show up suddenly and take the crab she had grilled.

At this moment, her heart was thumping wildly. She licked her dried lips and parted them to say something.

However, her mind went blank as soon as she wanted to say something. Deep down, she actually understood what Gu Mingchen meant. However, strangers wouldn’t get him as they didn’t know he used to live on a desolate island.

Initially, she tried to think like someone who wasn’t aware of his past. However, her mind went blank because she was too nervous. In the end, she couldn’t utter a word at all.

The next moment, Gu Mingchen glanced at her.

Feeling his gaze on her, she lowered her eyes and focused on turning the crabs around to conceal her nervousness.

Gu Mingchen chuckled. “Do you know how to make distilled water?”

“I remember learning the methods in textbooks.”

“Have you ever experimented it?”

“I tried it in an experiment once,” Wu Nian explained with slight embarrassment.

She could feel Gu Mingchen still staring at her as she spoke.

Although both of them were silent, she felt nervous and uncomfortable because his gaze hadn’t been shifted away from her.

After a while, she decided to look into his obsidian eyes to ask, “Mr. Gu, is it your habit to stare at someone’s girlfriend?”

“I’m just curious about what’s on your mind. You haven’t taken your crabs out even though they are almost burnt,” Gu Mingchen replied blandly.

At his answer, she blushed and immediately took her crabs away from the charcoal burner. Two crabs were burnt, but luckily, the third one was fine.

Then, she used a twig to grab another crab and put it on the stones. However, as the fire was too close to her, she instinctively withdrew her hand.

“Silly girl. Let me help you. Come over here to eat the grilled crabs,” Gu Mingchen chided before he took the twig from her.

The next moment, he suddenly held her hand. No one knew if he had done it intentionally or otherwise.

Wu Nian instantly felt that the warmth exuded from his palm was hotter than the fire. She withdrew her hand cautiously and asked, “Did you see Liu Yan?”

“I think she went back to the car to get some water and an umbrella. Look, the one running over should be her,” Gu Mingchen pointed out as he glanced toward the right side.

Wu Nian shifted her gaze, indeed seeing Liu Yan running toward them with a plastic bag in her hand.

Deep in her heart, she knew Liu Yan didn’t like Gu Mingchen. In fact, the woman had always persuaded her to let go of him.

Hence, Wu Nian guessed that Liu Yan would be anxious the moment she saw Gu Mingchen.

She didn’t wish to deepen the conflict between Gu Mingchen and her friend. “Didn’t you say you’ll be the night watch tonight? In that case, you should get enough rest now.”

“I’ll go back after grilling the crabs for you,” Gu Mingchen stated blandly.

“I’ve already grilled twelve crabs. With the additional five crabs you grilled, it’s more than enough. Besides, it’ll be a waste if we can’t finish eating everything.” Wu Nian was actually indirectly asking him to leave.
