You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 194
Bai Rong had no inkling of where he was taking her.
Anyway, Gu Mingchen could not force her to do anything.
“How long more before we can reach?” Bai Rong asked as she looked at the pitch-ck sky outside.
“Around one and a half hours.” Gu Mingchen replied.
“Wake me up when we arrive.” She leaned against the seat and closed her eyes.
Gu Mingchen took off his suit and draped it over her body.
As Bai Rong had not slept yet, she could smell the faint tobo smell on his clothes.
Had he been smoking the entire time?
She did not like the smell of tobo so she opened her eyes and looked at him.
Three years had passed and Gu Mingchen grew more mature, introverted and quiet. However, he
could still give others a sense of security. Perhaps, this was a soldier’s unique characteristic.
“Don’t smoke in the future. It’s not good for your body.” Bai Rong said gently.
“I didn’t like to smoke in the past. I’ve been losing sleep during the past three years and my state of
mind isn’t that good. I’m facing a lot of pressure at work too, so I’ve been smoking a lot, so much that it
has already be a habit. Keep an eye on me in the future.” Gu Mingchen said seriously.
Bai Rong turned her head away and faced the window quietly, looking at their reflections on the
window.
“Chief, can I give you a psychological test?” Bai Rong asked gently.
“Sure. Go ahead.”
“If you’re watching a horror movie, where do you think the ghost would appear? 1. Lift; 2. Toilet; 3.
Under the table; 4. Storage closet.” After asking, Bai Rong looked at Gu Mingchen.
“I never watch horror movies and I don’t believe that ghosts exist.” Gu Mingchen replied in a deep
voice.
Bai Rong was speechless.
“Let me change the question. Suppose you’re walking on the streets one day and you see someone
almost getting knocked over. Do you hope that the person is a 1. Woman; 2. Man; 3. Child; or 4.
Elderly? Choose.” Bai Rong was slightly mad as he was not cooperating at all.
“What does the person have anything to do with me?” Gu Mingchen asked confusedly.
Deciding to ignore him, Bai Rong swiveled her head away.
Gu Mingchen frowned. “If I had to choose, I’ll hope that he’s a man.”
Bai Rong understood and nodded. “Okay, I know now.”
“What do you know? Can you tell me the results?” Gu Mingchen asked.
“People who choose the second option are strong and courageous. They do things efficiently and
directly. Although they’re rational, they shun trouble too. It’s also very difficult for them to be tempted
outside external temptations. This type of people have their own goals and ideas, and are rtively
more mature. They’re… the ideal type of spouses.” Bai Rong was reluctant to say thest sentence.
Gu Mingchen smiled. His smile was very light and almost unnoticeable. “Do you know why I chose the
second option?”
“Why?”
“The elderly person is too old. Even if he had barely avoided the collision, his blood pressure will still
rise and his heart might not be able to take it.”
“The child is too young and might be traumatized after being shocked.”
“Women are too troublesome.”
“If the man is agile enough to evade it, then they’ll probably brush this incident behind them.” Gu
Mingchen analyzed.
“I think you are prejudiced against women. How are women troublesome?” Bai Rong asked
persistently.
“If the woman was almost hit, she would definitely call her boyfriend toin and might even start
an argument with the driver.”
“Gu Mingchen, so you didn’t have a girlfriend for so many years because you’re scared of trouble?” Bai
Rong interrupted. “If the person is me, do you think I’ll call andin to you, or argue with the
driver?”
“That’s why I understood why I liked you in the past.” Gu Mingchen said directly, looking at Bai Rong
with a passionate gaze.
Bai Rong’s heart trembled. His eyes made her especially ufortable. “Look in front when you
drive.”
“Okay.” Gu Mingchen answered.
Bai Rong lowered her eyes.
Women were weird because even when they knew that the other person loved another woman, they
would still probe persistently to prove that the person loved them instead.
Because of this meagre hope, they would take pity, surrender, or even think they could rece the
woman in his heart.
However, the reality was that the human heart was the hardest thing to control in this world. If it was too
near, people would naturally shun away from it. However, if it was too far, it would be neglected. The
most ideal position was somewhere in between.
However, no one could control it.
Bai Rong’s heart ached and tears started to brim in her eyes. Not wanting to cry in front of Gu
Mingchen, she forced herself to stop overthinking.
Sometimes, it was painful to understand things too clearly.
Ignorance, arrogance and foolishness were sometimes the key to happiness.
For example, children were happy because they were unconcerned, forgetful and could not understand
many things clearly.
Unknowingly, they arrived at Gu Mingchen’s military base.

When the soldiers saw that it was his car, they saluted him. However, people would need to check
them at the second checkpoint.
This was part of Gu Mingchen’s strict requirements for his own military base.
After the check, the soldiers saluted him again.
Bai Rong had gone to his military base three years ago. There had been a lot of changes since the
previous time, with a couple more buildings being constructed.
However, the chief still lived in the same ce.
She followed him to the basement and suddenly recalled the secret room that Su Wanning mentioned.
Although she did not reveal it on her face, her heart was aching. The closer she approached the door,
the more she was reluctant to walk forward.
“Why did you bring me here?” Bai Rong stopped in her tracks.
Gu Mingchen did not force her to proceed any further and just pushed open the door to the secret
room.
Subconsciously, Bai Rong stepped in. The first thing that entered her eyes was the room full of
pictures. She looked at Gu Mingchen in surprise and her hands were trembling in nervousness.
Holding her hand reassuringly, Gu Mingchen led her into the room.
The secret room waspletely filled with pictures of her. Some were dug out from her social media
page, while others had been secretly taken by him.
“I hung these pictures up this afternoon.” Gu Mingchen exined in a deep voice as he picked up a red
jewelry box from the table.
Bai Rong nced at the jewelry box and examined the man.
He looked at her with his brooding eyes, as serious as usual. But there was a sh of pain surging
through his eyes that would make one’s heart ache.
“Three years ago, when I woke up in the operating theatre, all I could think of was the huge fire during
a mission from a long time ago. In the mission, everyone I led perished and only a spy survived. My
girlfriend, Zhou Han, was amongst the deceased.”
“You were not in my memories at all. From that day onwards, I kept dreaming about a weeping girl. She
kept shouting, ‘Where are you, Gu Mingchen?’ I thought the girl was Zhou Han as I had zero
impressions of you back then. I’m sorry to have forgotten about you.” Gu Mingchen said.
Bai Rong spun her head away.
That memory was too painful. As she recalled it, her face was already streaming with tears.
“It was until I met you around three years ago. Somehow, you felt familiar, so I went around to find out
more about you. Your past seemed to have been wiped clean deliberately. I even visited you at your
school a few times. As time passed, I believed more strongly that the weeping girl looking for me is
you, Bai Rong.”
Gu Mingchen opened the jewelry box and a diamond ring rested within. “I love you. Marry me. You’ll be
responsible for my life in the future.”
