You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 376

Chapter 376 Do You Want Him Or Me

Hearing his words, Wu Nian was stunned for a moment.

She was not a naive underaged teen, so she understood what a man meant by staying the night. It would most definitely not be just pure pillow talk.

She lowered her head, her fingers fidgeting under the table restlessly.

I… don’t want to stay…

Meanwhile, Aaron was deeply attracted by how demure she looked, with her beautiful long lashes bright red lips.

He gradually got closer to her and gave her a peck on her eyelids. His lips then continued to inch down slowly until they found hers.

“Such a coincidence to run into you guys here.” Gu Mingchen’s voice coldly echoed from nowhere.

Wu Nian dodged instinctively. She then raised her eyes and met with Gu Mingchen’s exceptionally dark ones.

His knitted eyebrows showed his unpleasantness, though the corners of his mouth were curved upwards slightly.

“Are you staying at this hotel as well?” Aaron asked politely.

“Yes, it’s more convenient. Anyway, don’t mind me. I won’t be interrupting your evening.” Gu Mingchen walked past them and sat down a little further away.

At that moment, Wu Nian was feeling awkward and uncomfortable, her fingers drumming the table nervously.

Just then, Aaron abruptly gave a soft chuckle.

Wu Nian looked at him, confused. “What’s so funny?”

“You are a special woman. Though you look tough on the outside, you’re actually a very shy person,” Aaron murmured.

“Aaron…” Wu Nian called out his name but hesitated to further her sentence.

“It’s ok. Just tell me if it’s inconvenient for you today,” Aaron said softly, seeming to detect her reluctance.

“Um… it’s just that the culture here is so different compared to Ustrana. We typically have a more traditional thinking, especially when it comes to, you know, these sort of things… But of course, it depends on the individual…” Wu Nian paused for a few seconds.

“I won’t force you,” Aaron promised with a smile.

Upon that, Wu Nian’s eyes flickered with a sense of security.

Aaron is the perfect man – a true gentleman, in fact. I could barely find any fault in him!

Frankly speaking, she would be more than pleased to be in a long-term relationship with him.

But on the other hand, the more perfect he was, the more burdened she became.

Ultimately, she did not have pure intentions when she started going out with him; to her, he was just her last strand of hope to keep living on.

“I’m sorry,” Wu Nian apologized sincerely.

“It’s alright. I was rushing into things, and I understand that you have your concerns. Maybe I’m not good enough. But I hope time can prove that I’m a good fit for you,” Aaron grabbed Wu Nian’s hand and said.

“I’m sorry,” Wu Nian repeated with her head lowered.

Seeing how dejected she was, Aaron gave her a peck on the forehead gently. “You don’t need to say sorry to me, ever. You know that I’m willing to do anything for you. Would you like to head to my room for a while?”

“Okay,” Wu Nian responded readily.

“Waiter, could we have the bill please?” Aaron took out his wallet as he gestured for the server.

The waiter stepped forward and said respectfully, “Sir, the guest sitting over there has already paid for you.”

Aaron turned his gaze towards Gu Mingchen, who had his back facing towards them. Even the aura from his back view was equally intimidating and aloof.

After that, Aaron took out some cash from his wallet and placed them on the table, “Please thank that gentleman for me, but I prefer to pay for my own order.”

With that, he held Wu Nian’s hand and left the restaurant.

Just then, Gu Mingchen turned around to glance at them from his table. Unable to control his emotions, his hand inadvertently broke the wineglass that he was holding. The glass shards pierced into the palm of his hand, and blood instantly flowed out, mixing with the red wine pouring out from the glass.
