You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 361
Chapter 361 Extra Perk
Wu Nian could feel everyone in the room staring at her.
If she were to go, it would make her rtionship with Gu Mingchen seem suspiciously intimate.
If she were to refuse, it would also make it seem as if something had happened between the two of
them.
“Don’t go,” Liu Yan said.
Wu Nian nodded. “I’m thinking the same. There’s nothing for me to say to him. Let’s move Ollie and
Lisa to the bed.”
“Ms. Wu, can I have a word with you too?” Xia He asked.
“Okay.”
“Are you sure that you’ll be fine?” Liu Yan looked concerned.
“Yeah,” Wu Nian reassured her before following Xia He to the back of the vi, using her phone as a
shlight.
“I want to return with Gu Mingchen this time. I don’t want to live like a fugitive any longer. Do you think
that’s a good idea?” Xia He asked.
“Before I actually met Zhou Han, I used to believe that you weren’t the spy. You had it tough, after all.
After the mission, I had thought that you had gone home. Tangqian Vige is such a hellhole, isn’t it?”
Sighing deeply, Wu Nian continued, “But after seeing Zhou Han, I simply couldn’t help but wonder if
you had been abandoned by the country because of the failed mission.”
“What do you mean?” Xia He’s voice became a little shrill as she stared at Wu Nian with a perplexed
expression.
“When Zhou Han had just returned, she acted as if she had a mental illness and used it as an
excuse to cling onto Gu Mingchen. I saw through her lies immediately and began suspecting her to be
the spy.”

Wu Nian furrowed her brows. “But after learning about me, she willingly left him and told me to take
care of her child with Gu Mingchen. She had finally left him after sticking around for all those years.
Apart from the shady schemes she conspired out of fear of losing Gu Mingchen, she was not an
entirely evil person,” she exined.
“That’s exactly it! She wouldn’t have yed those dirty tricks if she were good-natured. She’s the spy.
I’m sure of it!” Xia He spluttered.
“That’s because you’re sure of who you are, but everyone else wouldn’t be able to know for sure who’s
telling the truth!” Wu Nian also raised her voice.
“Can’t you see the truth? Don’t you believe me?” Xia He retorted.
“I believe you because Zhou Han is my rival. I don’t trust her for personal reasons. Speaking of
personal reasons, Zhou Han has a son with Gu Mingchen, and his parents have always hoped for
them to marry. Who do you think his parents would believe? Him, or you?”
Wu Nian’s words had Xia He stumped. Indeed, if Gu Mingchen had any faith in her at all, she would not
have lived her life as a fugitive for so long.
Hmph. Gu Mingchen doesn’t trust me for “personal reasons” too.
“What am I supposed to do then?” Xia He frowned.
“Run for your life… or…” Wu Nian paused. “Devise a n to return to A City discreetly.”
“Discreetly?” As Xia He stared at Wu Nian with her brows furrowed deeply, countless thoughts shed
across her head. Eventually, she asked, “I want to taste the oranges from Tangqian Vige once more.”
Memories of the unbearably sour oranges sold to them by a dishonest man at the vige came flooding
back into Wu Nian’s head. The oranges were naturally grown but way too sour, and Gu Mingchen was
the one who ate them all in the end.
She could recall exactly how affectionate and exasperated his gaze at that very moment.
Though the oranges tasted sour, there was an unmistakable sweet taste lingering in her heart.
“I guess they do taste pretty unique,” Wu Nian replied.
“Have you eaten one before?” Xia He asked.
“They’re brutally sour,” Wu Nian said, smiling.
Xia He sneaked a nce to a dark corner. I’ve done the task as you have requested.
“I… I can’t believe I didn’t realize back then that you and Gu Mingchen had already gotten together.
Was I blind? Urgh.”
Wu Nian pursed her lips. It was a rather sensitive topic for her. “Gu Mingchen is definitely after you. You
should find a chance and run before it’s toote.” She diverted the topic.
“He told me that he wouldn’t as long as I stay on this ind.”
“That doesn’t sound like something that he would do. He’s very loyal to his fellow brothers fighting
alongside him. Those who died on that mission were very dear to him. You’re his number one suspect.
There’s no way that he’ll go easy on you.”
“It’s possible… It would be possible if there is something more important to him, or maybe he has
changed over the years. I heard Stephen talking about paying Mo Xue a visit for his sake. Mo Xue runs
a jewelry business. Why would someone like Gu Mingchen be interested in a jewelry business? Believe
it or not, he has changed,” Xia He said with a genuine expression.
“Expanding his family business is only part of his responsibilities now that he has taken over Gu Group.
Anyways, I’m heading back now. My friend must be worried about me.” Wu Nian seemed firm about
ending their conversation there.
“Thank you, Bai Rong. I’ll cook some noodles for you guys in the kitchen. You must be hungry. You
guys barely ate just now.” Xia He trailed off as she headed toward the kitchen.
Wu Nian began walking back. She barely walked ten meters before Gu Mingchen suddenly appeared
before her and blocked her way.
Wu Nian jumped. Retreating a few steps with her hand over her chest, she took a closer look at the
man standing before her. “Mr. Gu, jumpscares can very well be deadly, didn’t you know?”
“Weren’t you trying to seduce me back then? Come, I’ll let you do whatever you want now,” Gu
Mingchen growled.
Wu Nian felt a shiver down her spine. She could not wrap her head around what he was saying and
stiffly shone the shlight of her phone on his face.
His gaze was firm, and his expression was sincere as ever. He was being a hundred percent serious.
“When have I ever said that? Mr. Gu, you’re too full of yourself.” With that, Wu Nian tried to walk away.
However, Gu Mingchen immediately grabbed her hand, stopping her in her path. “I’m sorry.”
Wu Nian raised her eyebrows.
It was rare for him to apologize to others, so she knew just how precious those words were.
“I know that I’ve been unreasonably mean to you this whole time, but I want to let you know that I just
did it to test you. After all, you’ll be taking care of my child. If you be part of my life, I’ll have to
entrust my child with you entirely. Furthermore, your voice sounds like an exact copy of how my ex-wife
sounds. Because of that, I simply could not help but suspect that you’re working for someone.
However, after spending all this time together, I’vee to the conclusion that you’re not someone I
should put my guard up against. I trust youpletely, and I’ll entrust my child with you from now on.”
As Gu Mingchen solemnly said those words, his gaze became more and more passionate.
Wu Nian had to admit that the prospect of spending all of her time with Yanny made her heart skip a
beat.
“Let me just say this. My teaching methods may be… extreme.” Wu Nian wanted Gu Mingchen to be
mentally prepared.
“I’ve chosen you, so I’ll trust you fully and respect the way you teach. By the way, how much did the
phone that you gave Yanny cost? Come to me for reimbursement when we get back,” he said, pursing
his lips.
Wu Nian blinked. Oh, my. He’s way too observant.
She was still feeling rather hesitant about the entire matter. “I’ll think about this when I get back.”
“In that case, let me make my requests very clear. I won’t remarry unless my ex-wife returns to me.
Hence, you’ll have to take care of my son until my ex-wifees back. If you agree to do this, I’ll add
one more to the list of perks other than the ones I’ve already mentionedst time. I’ll let your friend
have Stephen, should you ept my offer.”
