You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 141
If she was still the old Bai Rong from 3 years ago, she would’ve stuttered nervously at his
straightforwardness. There was nowhere for her to hide from Gu Mingchen’s pressuring gaze.
But now, she was already able to face his probing gaze calmly.
“Is this thought bugging you badly, Chief?”
Gu Mingchen’s deep eyes flickered as he tried to ascertain the change in expression of the girl before
him.
There was none.
The girl remained a cordial but distant smile without showing any change in her emotions.
“Is that true?” Gu Mingchen asked back instead, his gaze darkening further.
“The past is long gone with the wind, so why should you care about it now? Together or not, in love or
not, it’s meaningless now. Maybe it’s just a one-sided yearning from my side. But as time passed, any
unrealistic yearnings and desires of mine were now long buried within that turbulent past.” Bai Rong
replied in a self-mocking manner.
“Don’t try to beat around the bush with me. I just need to know one thing; were we in love before?” Gu
Mingchen suddenly turned serious, his expression sharp and cold like the chief he was.
Bai Rong paused for a while before spitting out her simple answer clearly, “No.”
“It’s just a simple yes and no question, for what did you tell me all that nonsense then? Did you think I
have the time to listen to your nags?” Gu Mingchen red at her as he felt inexplicable anger surging
within him.
Bai Rong knew she had made a major mistake in the context of psychological studies. She shouldn’t
have spoken so much in the first ce, as the chances of saying the wrong things might have risen the
more she talked. “Sorry.”
She was just desperate to hide herself. Trying too hard to hide her guilt and diffidence with her
eloquence.
After the conversation, Gu Mingchen turned to look out of the window.
It was still raining as the heavy raindrops hit on the window panes loudly.
Bai Rong also turned towards the window. Throughout the journey, none of them spoke as the tension
thickened between them. The car was filled with crushing heaviness, just like the heavy rain outside. It
was a very ufortable ride for the both of them.
Finally, the car reached the psychiatric hospital. Desperate to escape from the heavy atmosphere, Bai
Rong swiftly got down from the car.
Gu Mingchen’s subordinate helped her to unload her luggage and passed her an umbre. The girl did
not reject the caring offer and nodded gratefully before heading inside with her luggage.
Gu Mingchen’s brooding gaze lingered on the girl through the rearview mirror until she was gone from
his sight. By the time he removed his gaze from the mirror, his face was all clouded over with
unreadable emotions.
Bai Rong signed her attendance at the counter and met with the doctor treating her mother. After
understanding Bai Bing’s condition, only then she went to meet her mother.
Three years ago, Bai Bing would mutter words to herself while hugging her pillow. Back then, she was
still able to smile asionally, just that she couldn’t recognize anyone.
Now, she was still hugging her pillow like thest time, but her eyes were now empty and unresponsive
as she stared into the thin air with an unfocused gaze. Her expression was also dazed and void of
emotions, unlike her previous expressive self.
The doctor in charge mentioned that Bai Bing already lost muscr control of her bowels and suffered
from incontinency. Most of the time, she would be lying on bed lifelessly and only sit up asionally.
Fortunately, Su Xuyan had employed two caretakers to look after her, that was why she looked clean
despite having bodily disorders.
Bai Rong sat in front of her mother, but Bai Bing’s pupils did not move at all, as though she didn’t see
anyone sitting before her.
“Mum, I’m Bai Rong.” Bai Rong called out to her mother gently.
Bai Bing remained unresponsive.
“How’s Xing Bachuan doing?” Bai Rong asked.
This time, Bai Bing slowly turned towards her daughter.
Bai Rong’s lips twitched at the sight, her eyes reddening slightly.
Xing Bachuan was the only person who mattered to her mother now.
She bet that to Bai Bing, her daughter was simply a redundant existence.
“He’s fine. We danced together yesterday.” Bai Bing replied firmly.
“What song did you dance to?” Bai Rong tried to speak in a light tone, her fingers rhythmically tapping
the table.
“We danced to the Red Danube. It was alreadyte evening. The beautiful sunset colored the sky in a
glorious red. Underneath the beautiful sky, he ced my hands in his as he held my waist. With light
steps, we swayed slowly to the music. Simply swaying, and swaying.” A happy smile showed on her
previously nk face.
“Oh, I can see the two of you. You look so stunning! Both of you look so loving together. I see that he
gave you a box and you opened it. What’s in there?” Bai Rong asked and retracted her tapping hands.
“It’s a diamond ring! He proposed to me. He finally proposed to me! Oh, I feel so happy now!” Bai Bing
stood up enthusiastically.
Bai Rong stood up as well and went behind her mother. “Not just one ring. Inside contained another
ring too. What’s the meaning of this?”
“What’s the meaning of this?” Bai Bing made a throwing gesture as she jumped backwards in fright.
“Wait, he proposed to me twice.” Bai Bing blurted in a daze.
“Proposed twice? Were you divorced with him?” Bai Rong asked.
“Divorced?” Bai Bing panicked at the term; her eyes full of horror as she covered her head. Then, she
muttered to herself with a furious expression, “It’s that b****! You s***! How dare you snatch my
husband! I’m going to kill you!”
Bai Bing turned to her daughter fiercely and mped her hands down on Bai Rong’s neck.
But the girl was unfazed by the dangerous situation. “You won in the end. Xing Bachuan proposed to
you again.”
Bai Bing paused. “Yes, he proposed to me again. He told me he had divorced that s***!”
She then turned to her daughter with a confused gaze. “Who are you?”
Bai Rong smiled faintly. “Mum, I’m back. I’m your daughter, Rong.”
“Rong? You’re Rong? Where have you been? I’ve not seen you for such a long, long time.” Bai Bing
held onto her daughter’s hands.
The force of her grip was strong. Bai Rong felt jolting paining from her hands due to her mother’s
tight grip. “Mum, I’ll be by your side now. Believe me, days will get better for us. I have confidence to let
dade back to you.”
“Really? Your dad will want me back?” Bai Bing cupped her own face, her dubious words overflowing
with surprise.
“Don’t forget you were the most beautifuldyst time. He even fell out with his family just to marry
you back then. As long as you clean yourself and dress up properly, you’re still the most beautifuldy
in the world.” Bai Rong encouraged Bai Bing with a smile.
“Yes, that’s right! I need to take a bath now; I must wash my dirty hair. I need to put on make-upter!”
Bai Bing sobbed out of overwhelming hope and happiness.
Bai Rong sat back down and tapped the table again. “Do you need my help?”
“No need. I’m not a child anymore. I can clean up on my own.” Bai Bing grabbed her clothes and
entered the bathroom.
Bai Rong lifted her lips into a gentle smile and walked towards the window. Her eyes were clear as
crystal as she looked out at the unending heavy rain.
The doctors and nurses were totally stunned by the change.
Throughout the past year, Bai Bing never spoke a word and had problems taking care of herself. But
now, she could get her own clothes and bathe herself without any help!
Was this the power of family love?

Once she was done bathing, Bai Bing came out of the bathroom and let her daughter dry her hair with
the hairdryer. Then, Bai Rong helped her put on beautiful make-up and took a picture of her mother.
Bai Bing was happy with the photo. “Send it to your father.”
“Don’t need to rush just yet.” Bai Rong kept her phone and held her mother’s hands. “Mum, I don’t think
you’re at your best now. We must hit the target at the first shot, otherwise I’m afraid we can’t achieve
what we want.”
“Then what should I do now?” Bai Bing asked her daughter.
“You need to exercise, eat well and read more books. Continue this lifestyle for a year and make the
best out of yourself. I’ll handle the rest.”
“Alright. You must help me with this.” Bai Bing pleaded.
Her daughter bored her gaze into her firmly. “I will definitely help you.”
Bai Bing talked a lot about her past. Unlike her dazed self, her thoughts were clear and she was not the
least bit confused.
Bai Rong sat aside and listened to her stories patiently.
After a long time of talking, Bai Bing was finally tired and spread the bedsheets on her own before
climbing up to sleep.
Bai Rong came out of her mother’s room, only to run into Mu Xiaosheng by the door.
The man at the door smiled as he spoke, “I came here to ask for my senior’s help and heard someone
saying there’s an extraordinary hypnotherapist here. I was curious and rushed over to check out, and it
turns out to be you! Indeed, your hypnotherapy skills are out of the world. Wee back, Bai Rong.
You returned at just the right time to help me settle a very urgent problem.”
