You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 427

Chapter 427 Happy Days

Bai Rong requested, “Can you pull over at the entrance of the market? I need to buy some groceries.”

“Alright. I didn’t expect that you could cook. No wonder Mr. Gu likes you so much.” Zhang Xingyu smiled as he looked at the woman.

She glanced at him and asked, “Did you climb up to your position by using flattery?”

“Hehe. You could say that.” Fortunately, Zhang Xingyu did not take her words to heart.

Bai Rong smiled faintly, feeling sorry for the man.

I shouldn’t vent my frustration on innocent people.

After parking his car at a car park nearby the market, Zhang Xingyu accompanied Bai Rong on her grocery shopping.

The woman bought half a kilogram of vermicelli and big prawns, a kilogram of chicken wings, cucumbers, cabbages, and bok choy. When she walked past a store selling fishing equipment, she bought a fishing rod and two black Bubble Eyes.

“You’re making so many dishes today?” Zhang Xingyu helped Bai Rong to carry the groceries.

Bai Rong invited him, “Yeah. Do you want to stay for dinner?”

Zhang Xingyu’s cheeks turned red as he refused her offer, “No. Mr. Gu has other tasks for me. Besides, I don’t want to disturb you guys.”

“Then I’ll ask you guys out for a meal another day.” Bai Rong meant to invite the Shadow Samurais out so that she could recognize their faces as it would help in hiding away from them.

“Sure,” replied Zhang Xingyu happily.

After he sent her back to the villa, Bai Rong placed the groceries in the kitchen and gave Bai some dog food before releasing it from the cage.

Bai was running around Bai Rong, happy to see its owner and regain its freedom.

The woman then went back to the kitchen and cleaned the prawns before cooking them in water.

While the prawns were being cooked, she separated the vermicelli into five packets and stored them in the freezer. After that, she marinated the chicken wings.

Right when the water started boiling, she took the prawns out and splashed cold water onto them. After drying them with some kitchen towels, she sealed them up using cling wrap and kept them in the freezer.

Then, she started cleaning the house. In the afternoon, she prepared some noodles and a poached egg for lunch. After finishing her meal, she went to the backyard with a small shovel and a plastic bag to catch some worms. Attaining the bait, she took a fishing rod to the park and fished at the lake.

She guessed that the park belonged to Gu Mingchen since she was the only person there.

After scanning her surroundings, she didn’t notice any Shadow Samurais.

After finding herself a bench, she basked in the sun while waiting for a fish to take the bait. Taking out her phone, she emailed the mercenaries: Gu Mingchen has access to God’s Eye, so be mindful not to get caught. You guys can hide in places without surveillance cameras. We’ll stay in touch through email.

After sending it, she deleted the email. Suddenly, the fish bobber was wrenched. Noticing the movement, she immediately lifted the rod, and out came a big herring. It was quite heavy and could be over ten kilograms.

Bai Rong let out a smile, delighted at her catch. How lucky!

It took her a lot of effort to put the fish into the pail. Afterward, she didn’t continue fishing and called Gu Mingchen on her phone.

“Do you know what I was doing?” She was excited to share the good news with her lover.

Gu Mingchen smiled when he noticed she was in a good mood. “Yeah?”

Bai Rong was all smiles. “I was fishing. Guess what? I was able to catch a huge herring.”

“It seems I’ll be blessed with good food tonight. The herring dishes you prepared were delicious,” Gu Mingchen replied with a smile.

“Yeah. I’ll return home to prepare the dishes now.” Looking at the big herring in the pail, she suggested, “Do you want to invite some friends over? I don’t think we can finish them by ourselves.”

“Sure. I’ll be home at five. Don’t overwork yourself, alright?” Gu Mingchen was worried that she would be exhausted from preparing so many dishes.

“I’ll be fine. See you later.” After hanging up, she reeled in the fishing line. Suddenly, a figure appeared behind her, and she jumped in shock. Turning around, she was stunned.

The man in front of her was dressed like a rock, and she couldn’t even see his face clearly.

He smiled earnestly and explained, “Chief asked me to help you with the pail.” He felt sorry for scaring her and took the pail in his hand.
