You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 364


    Chapter 364 We Are Family


    Wu Nian got up from the bed as quietly as she could and crept toward the door.


    Since there was no en-suite bathroom, she had to go out of the study to freshen herself up.


    When she opened the door, her eyes met the eyes of Gu Mingchen.


    She was taken aback, not sure what was going on. “Hello?”


    Ignoring her greeting, the man handed her two sets of disposable toothpaste and toothbrushes.


    She looked at the toiletries in his hand, and a strange feeling washed over her. Such things should be


    given to me by Stephen’s housekeeper, not him.


    “You don’t need these?” Gu Mingchen grew a little impatient when she did not take the things in his


    hand.


    His voice was deep and husky, sounding simr to a cello. It was very pleasing to the ears.


    She promptly took the toiletries over and said respectfully, “Thank you, Mr. Gu.”


    “Since you’re now hired as my children’s home tutor, you’re considered a part of the family now. You


    don’t need to be so polite.” With that, the man turned around and left.


    Family? She looked at his tall and muscr figure. I guess it’s good to be family in this way.


    After she collected herself, she headed to the bathroom to brush her teeth and shower. By the time she


    was done, Liu Yan had also gotten up.


    The woman’s eyes were red and puffy from cryingst night. She was clearly still muzzy from sleep.


    Wu Nian grinned at her disheveled look as she handed her the toiletries and teased, “Take a look at


    your hair. It’s as messy as a pigpen. Are you sure you’re not a boy?”


    Guffawing at her joke, Liu Yan seemed to have forgotten their sentimentalityst night. “Oh, how I wish


    I were male! I wouldn’t have to worry about taming my mane every day. Hahaha.”


    “If you were a boy, I’m sure you would be the most sought-after bachelor,” Wu Nian said jokingly.


    Putting her arm around Wu Nian’s shoulder, Liu Yan wagged her eyebrows suggestively. “It’s okay, my


    love. You would be the one I marry.”


    “Hahaha. Sure.” Wu Nian chuckled joyfully. But behind her cheerful facade, sorrow lingered in her


    heart.


    Liu Yan went to the bathroom to wash and tidy up her messy hair while Wu Nian headed downstairs.


    When Xia He was bringing out the breakfast, she caught sight of Wu Nian and said, “Stephen has sent


    someone out, and the ship will be here by the afternoon at thetest.”


    Wu Nian nodded. “Thank you.”


    “Come and have your breakfast first. Stephen has told me to take you guys around the ind.” She put


    the bowl in front of her.


    “He is too kind. Thank you,” Wu Nian said courteously.


    “He has always been a warm-hearted man.”


    An hourter, Liu Yan joined Wu Nian for breakfast together.


    ncing around, the former found no one other than the two of them. “How strange! There are only the


    two of us here. Where are the others?”


    “They’re probably busy with other things. I bet some are still sleeping,” Wu Nian replied.

    A momentter, Liu Yan nced towards the stairs and grinned. “Your boyfriend is here. Oh, he’s so


    dashing. Such a feast for the eyes.”


    Wu Nian chuckled in response. Before she could turn her head around to look at Aaron, he had leaned


    in and kissed her on the cheek. “Morning, my dear.”


    “Uh…” Wu Nian felt a little ufortable with the intimacy. Mm, but I guess cheek kissing is nothing


    but a greeting etiquette for him as a Ustranasion.


    However, she was not used to the smell of his cologne. Forcing a smile, she greeted back, “Morning.”


    Aaron sat down next to her and looked into her eyes. “I didn’t sleep well yesterday.”


    “It’s normal to have a bad night sometimes,” Wu Nian replied with augh.


    He lowered his gaze and ate elegantly before saying, “I’ll bring you somewhere today after we leave.”


    Wu Nian and Liu Yan exchanged a look before thetter secretly winked and smiled slyly at her friend.


    Sighing inwardly, Wu Nian was left with no choice but to ept it. I’ve made my bed, and I’ll have to lie


    in it. Besides, I still need him as my boyfriend.


    After they finished their meal, Aaron asked Wu Nian, “Do you need me to talk with Stephen regarding


    the matter you mentioned earlier?”


    “Mr. Stephen currently has his personal matters to attend to, so I think it’s inconsiderate of us if we talk


    business with him at the moment. Don’t worry about it. Liu Yan will contact Mr. Stephen againter on.”


    She paused briefly before asking, “ When will you return to Ustrana?”


    His mouth quirked up at her question. Fixing his zing gaze on her, he softened his tone of voice and


    asked expectantly, “Do you want to go back with me?”


    However, Wu Nian spoke her mind directly, “I need to go back to my country and do what I should do.”


    Disappointment spread across Aaron’s face instantly. Still, he raised a smile. “You’re so frank and cute.


    Anyway, I have some business to do in A City. But I’ll have to go back to Ustrana first to deliver the


    ne Grandma wants before flying to A City to meet you. I wouldn’t want the physical distance


    between us bes an obstacle in our rtionship.”


    Touched by his words, she softened her gaze and felt guilty for her bluntness.


    “He’s so romantic,” Liu Yanmented as she held her chin on her hand, utterly in awe of him.


    Aaron smiled warmly. “It’s not romantic. I’m just doing what a boyfriend should do. A boyfriend who


    makes his girlfriend sacrifice too much is not a good man.”


    Leaning towards Wu Nian, Liu Yan whispered in her ear cheekily, “Just marry him, Rong.”


    “Rong?” He looked at them in surprise.


    Realizing her slip of the tongue, Liu Yan quickly corrected her posture and sat upright. She pondered


    for a while before exining, “I mean, it’s not wrong to marry someone as charming as you.”


    “Ah, I see.” Aaron nodded in agreement and beamed delightfully at Wu Nian. “She’s right, you know?”


    “You mean she’s not wrong?” Wu Nian cracked up at the look on his face.


    “Hahaha! You’re really a cute one.” Liu Yanughed boisterously, holding her stomach.


    Gu Mingchen heard theirughter when he reached the door of the dining room. He frowned instantly,


    and jealousy surged from his eyes. I rarely hear herugh so heartily.


    The moment he walked into the room, he saw Aaron kiss Wu Nian’s forehead, and his expression


    instantly turned livid. He walked over sullenly.


    “It’s wonderful to see youugh. You look more attractive and approachable. Nian, you shouldugh


    more,” Aaron said gently.


    A wave of warm, fuzzy feeling washed over her as she realized his kind intention to make herugh


    just now. She could not help but tease him, “You mean, I don’t look good when I don’tugh?”


    “Nope. You’re always beautiful,” Aaron stated hurriedly.


    As they were conversing, Gu Mingchen pulled a chair and sat across Wu Nian. Leaning back on his


    chair, he looked at her with an inscrutable emotion in his eyes. “Now now, what’s so funny? Share it


    with me. I want to join the merriment, too.”


    “Don’t tell me you want to hear their sweet nothings,” Liu Yan interrupted in a mocking tone.


    “Oh? What kind of sweet nothings?” Gu Mingchen red hostilely at Aaron and smirked. “Speak them


    out. Let me learn, too.”


    “You can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.” Liu Yan then said, “Aaron, you’re familiar with this


    ind. Let’s bring us out for a stroll then. There is an annoying fly here.” With that, she stood up and


    held Wu Nian up as well.


    Aaron smiled at Gu Mingchen. “I’m sorry.”


    “Wu Nian,” Gu Mingchen abruptly called out her full name and looked fixedly at her. “Sit down.”
