You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 330


    Chapter 330 You Cannot Do This To Me


    Wu Nian’s heart skipped a beat the moment she heard Gu Mingchen’s voice.


    Both of them were so engrossed in their conversation that nobody had realized he was there. Wu Nian


    pursed her lips and turned around cautiously. “Yes. I took psychology when I was at university, but I


    wasn’t really good at it though. I studied it because I find it extremely helpful for those kids at the


    orphanage.”


    “Gu Mingchen, I know what you’re thinking. She really reminds you of Bai Rong, right?” Liu Yan called


    him out directly right after Wu Nian spoke.


    Gu Mingchen stared at her, speechless.


    Since he was at a loss for words, Liu Yan continued. “Indeed, she’s really simr to Bai Rong. She


    sounds like her, and they have simr life experiences. Bai Rong also grew up in an orphanage, and


    she studied psychology too. Their personalities are more or less the same. But let me warn you, I’ve


    already lost a friend because of you. I’m not letting it happen again.”


    “Yan, that’s enough.” Wu Nian got to her feet and cut her short as she smiled apologetically at Gu


    Mingchen. “I’m working at Mr. Gu’s house as a tutor now.”


    “Quit that job. I’ll pay for everything you need,” Liu Yan said.


    “I want to earn my own living,” Wu Nian protested.


    A gloom settled over Gu Mingchen’s face. “You know what? Since your friend doesn’t like me, you


    should just stop working for me. Things that start bad won’t end well anyway.”

    With that said, Gu Mingchen turned and left.


    Wu Nian dropped her head in dejection and slumped into her chair. She picked up the fork and knife


    and continued cutting the steak into smaller pieces. Although her face did not betray any emotion, her


    heart was a mess.


    Liu Yan looked at her intently, feeling helpless and culpable. “Did I go overboard?”


    Her friend shook her head. “It’s good you cut to the chase and stop him from thinking I’m Bai Rong. I


    bet he has his own reasons to dismiss me.”


    “By the way,” Liu Yan started. “The orphanage called today. They said Gu Mingchen sent his assistant


    to the orphanage to do a background check on you.”


    Wu Nian shot her a faint smile. “I saw thating. After all, I’m his son’s tutor and Gu Mingchen is


    always away. He has plenty of reason to be careful with who he puts by his children’s side.”


    “What are you gonna do now? Don’t you want to stay by Yanny’s side and take care of him?” Liu Yan


    felt sorry for her.


    “It’s okay. I can still apply to the school Yanny is studying at. I’ll still get to see him if I get a job as a


    teacher there. I’ll see how things go. After all, it’s not like I can force things to happen the way I want


    them to.”


    Life had taught her that she should just let things take their due course. She would end up getting


    herself hurt if she relentlessly forced her way through things she had no control over.


    Wu Nian took up her ss and toasted Liu Yan. “I’ll just have this one ss.”


    Before she could even take a sip of the wine, Liu Yan snatched the ss out of her hand and ced it


    back on the table. “Let’s not drink anymore. It doesn’t taste good anyway. Let’s finish our food and go


    hit the karaoke bar. I’ll call a few cute guys over.”


    “I’m down for singing but not cute guys. I have a feeling Shen Yiyan has eyes here,” Wu Nian


    cautioned.


    Liu Yan scoffed and pped the table arrogantly. “So what? He’s married, but he still surrounds himself


    with so many women. Why can’t I do the same?”


    “True that. We should live for ourselves. We should focus on living a meaningful and happy life instead


    of thinking about other people. We can still live beautifully despite bad circumstances!” Wu Nian


    pushed Liu Yan’s hand off the ss and took it up again before finishing it off in one go.


    She did not eat much after having a steak. She sat there watching Liu Yan eat as they talked about


    Bao.


    “You’re not gonna eat anymore?” Liu Yan asked as she sat back in her chair, rubbing her full tummy.


    “A whole piece of steak is more than enough for me. My stomach hurts if I overeat.”


    “I think the medication messed up your hormones. You’re blowing up even when you’re eating so little,”


    Liu Yan spoke, sighing.


    “I’m grateful to be alive. That’s all that matters to me now. I no longer care about my looks or my body.


    You should worry for yourself instead. You’re eating like nobody’s business,” Wu Nian said jokingly.


    “Ha! I can’t wait to gain more weight! I want to be so ugly and fat that Shen Yiyan deserts me. Oh wait,


    I can’t do that… You won’t be able to get your medication after he throws me away. Gosh, what a


    dilemma!” Liu Tan rested her chin on her fist as she said her mind out loud.


    “I’m so sorry, Liu Yan,” Wu Nian mumbled.


    “Don’t take me too seriously. You know I just say whateveres to mind. I didn’t mean it that way,”


    Liu Yan quickly exined herself.


    Wu Nian knew she did not mean it. They had been friends for years now, and she knew her inside out.


    Liu Yan was a loyal and forthwith person. She was easy to read and was kind to everyone.


    It was her who got Liu Yan into all this mess. She was the reason why Liu Yan was suffering at the


    hands of Shen Yiyan.


    “Yan, I want you to live your own life. I don’t want you to take on my burden anymore,” Wu Nian told her


    solemnly.


    “The life I want is a life with you in it. Come on, let’s hit the karaoke bar,” Liu Yan diverted the


    conversation.


    Wu Nian nodded and both of them got up to leave.


    “Daddy, isn’t that Ms. Wu?” Gu Yan asked while pulling on his father’s hand. He had spotted Wu Nian.


    Gu Mingchen trailed his son’s gaze and saw Wu Nian leaving. “Yeah. I guess something came up so


    she’s leaving,” he replied. “I’ll bring the both of you to the ygroundter.”


    “Didn’t she see me when she came in?” Gu Yan moped.


    Gu Mingchen bent down beside his son and patted him on his shoulders. “Yanny, we should probably


    get you another tutor. I think Ms. Wu might not be the best candidate. I’ll be interviewing some


    candidates tomorrow. Why don’t you and Xine over together and see if you like any of them?”


    A thinyer of tears glistened in Gu Yan’s eyes. He pouted and refused to talk.


    “How about I get you some cake, Yanny?” Gu Mingchen entreated.


    The boy finally gave in and nodded.


    A loving smile spread across his father’s face as he caressed his head.


    As soon as Gu Mingchen left to get some cake, the boy ran out of the restaurant as quickly as he


    could. He hastened toward the elevator, his short legs pumping madly. When he finally saw Wu Nian


    after he got off the elevator, he cried out at the top of his lungs. “Ms. Wu! Nian!”


    Wu Nian turned around immediately when she heard Gu Yan’s familiar and shrill voice.


    Her heart thumped in eagerness and delight as she watched the boy run toward her.


    “It seems like he likes you a lot. I bet a son knows his mother by instinct,” Liu Yanmented as she


    saw the bliss on her friend’s face.


    Wu Nian squatted down, her eyes reddening when she detected the tears in Gu Yan’s eyes. “Daddy


    said you aren’ting over anymore, is that true?” the boy asked.


    A gentle smile curved Wu Nian’s lips. “Yanny, if I’m your tutor, then you need to call me Ms. Wu.


    However, if I’m not your tutor anymore, we can be friends and you can call me Nian. Isn’t that better?”


    “But I won’t see you again…” Gu Yan’s voice was muffled as he tried to fight back his tears. He blinked


    his eyes hard, but still, a tear rolled down his cheek.
