You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 218
“Why am I here?” Bai Rong asked, feeling perplexed. I remember I’ve asked Lieutenant Song to send
me to Shuiyue International. And isn’t he with Zhou Han?
Gu Mingchen saw the question in her eyes and patiently exined, “I’ve let Lieutenant Song send you
here. You were having a fever and fell unconscious. So, I brought you to the doctor and changed the
wound dressing on your chest. The wound hasn’t recovered yet. You are a doctor. Why are you not
taking good care of yourself?”
The more he spoke, the greater the heartache he felt for her. She is too independent; she wants to
bear everything alone. Even if she can’t bear it alone, she will not ask for help.
Bai Rong nodded as she understood how she had gotten here, but she had not quite understood
another matter. “Aren’t you at the military base? Where are Zhou Han and your parents?”
She’s asked the question too calmly. His eyes dimmed. Then, he turned off the rm on his phone and
ced it aside. He sat up straight and looked fixedly at her in the eyes. “I have something to tell you.”
Staring doubtfully at him, she asked, “What is it?”
When he saw her trying to sit up, he was worried that she might identally tear the wound, so he
promptly helped her up and put a pillow behind her.
“Thank you,” she said politely.
“You’re way too polite. We don’t need to thank each other.”
This is from N?velDrama.Org.
She lowered her gaze and did not respond.
Gu Mingchen disliked her behaving like this: unfathomable and obscure. It was as if she would
disappear at any moment. “The director of the Civil Affairs Bureau called me. He said that our
information has been uploaded into their system, and one can see the registration of our marriage on
the official website of the Civil Affairs Bureau. Therefore, we’re technically legally married.”
A look of utter disbelief sprawled across her face. “We are a legally married couple? How? I tore the
marriage certificate.”
“Nowadays, all the information is digitalized. It doesn’t matter if the marriage certificate is gone, they
can just print out another copy.” He opened the drawer of the nightstand, took out their marriage
certificate, and handed it to Bai Rong. “It’s exactly the same as the one we had before.”
With trembling hands, she took the document and opened it.
Both of them smiled sweetly in the photograph.
But she felt as if the persons inside were not them.
She clearly remembered she had torn it, and Su Xuyan also said that as long as the marriage
certificate was torn, there would be no record left at the Civil Affairs Bureau. How is this so?
“Gu Mingchen…” She looked expectantly at him.
“No,” he rejected. He knew that she didn’t want to be married. “Bai Rong, you can stay where you are.
It doesn’t matter if you step back because I’ll pursue after you. But please don’t hide. I’m afraid of not
being able to find you.”
She frowned and turned her face away from him.
“We are husband and wife. If one of us has any problem, we can solve it together,” he said gently,
holding her hand.
Woman is the softest, yet the strongest person in the world.
If she loves a man, even if the man is a tad bit good, she will give him her entire world.
As long as the man wants to reconcile and there’s still love between them, she will forget the scars he’s
left.
If she doesn’t love the man, even if this man loses his life for her, she will not stay with him.
Marriage, Zhou Han, and her illness frustrated her; she did not have any strength left to fight against
destiny.
Normally, when she could not make a decision right away, she would give herself more time to
ruminate over the options avable. After all, life is not going to end tomorrow. Everything will go away
with time, and time will also verify everything. Therefore, whenever I’m having difficulty in making
decisions, I’ll let time to solve the problem.
“Didn’t you say Zhou Han’s having mental issue? If you trust me, I can help her,” Bai Rong offered.
A grin spread across Gu Mingchen’s face as he held her hand tightly. “With your help, I believe that she
can recover in no time.”
“But you didn’t allow before,” she blurted out.
Taken aback, he stared at her before saying, “I didn’t know Zhou Han and my parents wereing
at that time. Besides, I’ve told her we’re married.”
With her eyes lowered, Bai Rong took a deep breath and turned to him. “Actually, it’s not hard to read
children’s emotions because the way they express themselves is not asplex as the adults. That’s
why we can easily predict what they’re thinking about.”
Pausing, she gave him some time to digest the information before she continued, “For example, a kid
passes by an ice cream shop and wants some ice cream. If the kid doesn’t get the ice cream, he might
cry, throw a tantrum, and even hit other people. As the kid’s parents, what should they do?”
He mulled over the question and then answered honestly, “Mm, if I were the parent… If it’s a boy, I
would not grant him what he wants, no matter how much he cries for it. If he throws a tantrum, I’d ask
him to face the wall as a punishment. If he beats people, I’d need to discipline and reprimand him.
However, if it’s a girl, I would spoil her a bit.”
“Kids are still young. They don’t know how to persuade their parents with words, so crying is their only
strategy to tell their parents that they want the ice cream. When they’re unhappy, they’d use their
parents’ love to get what they want. Thus, if they’re given ice cream after they cry, the tantrums will
be worse next time. It’s because they know that this method is effective,” she exined.
Nodding, he understood what she was trying to convey.
Bai Rong gave him an encouraging smile. “The same applies to Zhou Han. If she gets whatever she
wants when she cries, she’ll throw a tantrum that’s going to be worse than before.”
“What do I do then?” He looked at her quizzically.
She gave him a counterquestion. “Why do you think parents are reluctant to buy ice cream for their
kids?”
“Because of the high sugar content, and cold food is not good for kids. And perhaps, they can’t afford
it.”
“As kids, their values and life perspective are not formed yet. Therefore, parents are guardians who
protect them as they know what is good for them and what is bad for them. Gu Mingchen, what do you
think is good for Zhou Han?”
“I hope she can regain her confidence, lead an independent life, and find the people whom she truly
needs.”
Bai Rong smiled. However, there are some words she wanted to say, but she could not bring herself to
tell him. If she was facing the family members of an ordinary patient, she would speak them out without
thinking too much.
But the one sitting in front of me now is Gu Mingchen, and the patient is his ex-girlfriend. As his current
partner, saying those words would make me sound like a petty person.
Therefore, she did not say them out. Instead, she said, “If Zhou Han rejects me, I can rmend
someone else to you. My senior was a legend in our university. He’s even more famous than me,
definitely an excellent doctor as well.”
“I trust you,” Gu Mingchen said in a serious tone.
Upon hearing his words, her eyes gleamed. She finally voiced out the things she wanted to say, “I’d
need you to keep your distance with Zhou Han and don’t give her any false hope. Can you do that?
Only when you stop giving her hope can she find the one she truly needs, be independent, and
retrieve the confidence she’s lost. If you continue to spoil her, you’re actually keeping her in a cage
where she can never get out of. Besides, our rtionship will also hurt her deeply, making her feel
inferior and dependent.”
