You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 311


    Chapter 311 Sea and Spring Blossoms


    “And we’d also have three rooms downstairs as well: a kitchen, a storage room for firewood, and a


    dining room. Then, I’d built a two-meter-high wall outside and dig a well, too. So, our kids can y in


    the yard every day and we can also bring them to the beach. We would be so carefree and happy living


    here,” Gu Mingchen said, sharing the life he was looking forward to with Bai Rong.


    She listened to him attentively; his voice is soothing, just like a baritone.


    A poem suddenly shed through her mind: I have a house, facing the sea, where spring blossoms.


    She moved the stone to his side and sat down beside him. Hugging his arm, she leaned her head on


    his shoulder and said, “We can’t deny that we all have our own responsibilities. You have your parents,


    your army, and your promises while I have my parents, my promises, and my dreams. But as long as


    we shall live, there is hope for us. I promise you: after we’re done with what we need to do, I’lle


    here again with you if your wish still stands.”

    Turning his head towards her, he gazed lovingly at Bai Rong and lifted the corners of his mouth. “I


    suddenly feel like thanking Lu Xingzhou. If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t have known how you would


    torture me.”


    She cast her eyes down andnded her gaze on the vapor rising from the pot in front of them. Various


    complex emotions fleeted through her eyes.


    I’d once resented the unjust of fate. But after I’ve found love, I realize that I should be grateful for what


    has happened. However, now that I think about his life after my demise, I start to hate the cruel fate


    again. But what’s the point of indignation? Life is about choices and the decisions we make.


    Only when she felt the tears streaming down her face did she realize she teared up again.


    “Why are you crying?” Gu Mingchen asked worriedly, turning her over so that she was facing him.


    Bai Rong looked at him with her red-rimmed eyes. “I thought of our son. I believe he’s safe and sound.


    But we have no idea where he is right now. I really want to find him, but I’m not sure if my wish can


    come true.”


    “I’ve thought him as well. If his disappearance was caused by someone, it would not be Su Xuyan, your


    father, and my parents. In my opinion, it’s most probably caused by someone I know. If we can go back


    safely this time, I promise you that I’ll find him within a year.”


    “It seems like we still have a lot of things to do,” she sighed.


    He pulled her into his embrace and said, “No matter what stands in front of us, we’ll face it together. I’m


    sure everything will be fine.”


    Bai Rong didn’t say a word; she couldn’t bring herself to tell him the truth. So, she closed her eyes and


    pretended to be asleep.


    When Gu Mingchen did not hear her response, he nced towards her and found that she seemed to


    be asleep. Therefore, he proceeded to bring her to bed.


    But before he could bring her into his arms, she had opened her eyes.


    Smiling at her, he said, “Go to bed if you’re sleepy.”


    “Okay.” She climbed up the bamboodder andy down on the bed.


    “It’s cold tonight. You should sleep first. I’ll add more firewood ande to youter.” Before he left, he


    ced his shirt on her to keep her warm.


    Bai Rong did not sleep as she waited for him. After he came up to the bed, she put his shirt back on


    him and hug him, nestling against his body.


    She was not a clingy person, but he liked her to be clingy and taking the lead in their rtionship so


    that he would feel loved and needed.


    Gu Mingchen nted a kiss on her forehead and they fell asleep for the night.


    Time passed, and morning came. When Bai Rong opened her eyes, the storm had stopped and there


    was no more pitter-pattering sound of the heavy rain yesterday. Now she could only hear the soft


    sound of rainwater dripping from the leaves above.


    The fresh air of the ind wafted into her nose, and she drew a deep breath in.


    Gu Mingchen was also awake. “Good morning, sleepyhead.”


    “What’s the time?” she asked.


    ncing at his watch, he replied, “It’s 6:15 A.M. Do you want to sleep more?”


    She shook her head in response.


    Her pad was full and it was making her ufortable. It’s time to change.


    When he saw that she wanted to go down, he climbed down thedder first and stood underneath to


    protect her.


    After she came down safely, he turned around and added firewood to the campfire.


    Peeking over his back, she saw the fire was still burning. He probably got up several times during the


    night to keep it burning.


    “The road in the woods should be very difficult to walk after the storm yesterday. Shall we check them


    out again in the afternoon?” Bai Rong asked.


    Gu Mingchen brought in the pot of water from outside and put it on the fire. “After breakfast, I’ll go out


    to chop some trees by myself. There’re many big trees on this ind, so it won’t be difficult to find


    suitable wood that can be made into a boat. I would be back before dusk. Stay at home and don’t go


    out, okay?”


    “Are you going out alone?” She was a little worried.


    Gu Mingchen smiled softly and said, “I have a gun and a knife. Don’t worry.”


    “Walk slowly in the woods, and beware of snakes and insects,” she reminded.


    “Rx. What shall we have for breakfast? Fish soup or pork ribs soup?”


    “Let’s have pork ribs soup. I have an idea. We can bring a sack of sand onto our boatter and put the


    fish inside it. If we put it under the hot sun, the fish would be cooked. But pork won’t be. Am I right?”


    He nodded. “You’re right. Let’s have pork ribs then. Everything is ready, and all we need now is a boat.”


    Bai Rong brought out the ribs and put them into the pot. They did not have enough water now, so she


    decided not to wash them since she had washed them before.


    Meanwhile, Gu Mingchen went out andid the wet wood on the beach to dry them under the sun.


    Then, he searched for a dozen of dry wood and brought them back to the shack.


    “Can you find some fiber-rich nts? I want to weave more ropes,” Bai Rong said.


    “I think they’re all damp. Is your abdomen still in pain? You can rest for a day.” He felt worried about her


    condition.


    “I’m feeling better. I can put the damp nts on a rock and dry them. Whenever you’re out, I have


    nothing to do and I’d feel bored,” she pleaded.


    He nodded in response and went to chop the nts she wanted. After a while, he brought them back


    and ced them on a rock.


    When the soup was almost ready, Bai Rong put all the leftover mushrooms into the pot and waited for


    the soup to brew a little while.


    Then, he handed her some leaves.


    “What are these?” she asked, perplexed.


    “Put them in your mouth, chew, and spit them out. I found them yesterday. They’re like toothpaste and


    they can also strengthen teeth.” He threw a few pieces of the leaves into his mouth and spat them out


    after chewing for a minute.


    She followed suit. It feels refreshing and cool, but it has a bitter aftertaste.


    Gu Mingchen went out after breakfast. Before he left, Bai Rong took out most of the ribs in the pot, put


    them in a bamboo tube, and gave it to him.


    “Wait for me at home.” He pecked her on the forehead and turned to leave.


    After a long while, when Bai Rong was weaving the ropes, she heard Su Xuyan’s voice. “Rong.”


    Her heart skipped a beat as she raised her head in surprise.


    Su Xuyan stood outside on the wooden nks. After several days of not seeing him, he seemed to


    have lost a lot of weight. And his cheeks and chin were even covered with stubble. He looked


    pleasantly surprised as he smiled with relief.
