You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 366


    Chapter 366 Stay With Me


    The ship arrived around noontime, and it brought with it a signal transmitter, a new generator, flowers,


    pastors, and police.


    The police interrogated every person in the study and arrested Casey in the end.


    After Aaron came out of the study, he seemed down.


    Wu Nian went to him and asked, “Are you okay?”


    “Nian, Stephen is my friend. I wish to stay here for the time being. Would you like to apany me?”


    he asked tactfully.


    Wu Nian nodded.


    It’s inappropriate for Liu Yan to leave her potential business partner at this time as well. If she stays, I’m


    staying, too.


    Her answer made Aaron smile warmly. He held her hand and asked, “Are you hungry? Let’s go grab


    something to eat first. We may be a little busy this afternoon.”


    “Sure.” As she turned around, she almost ran into Gu Mingchen, who was standing right behind her.


    She jumped out of her skin, staring wide-eyed at him.


    The man nced at her face. “Feeling guilty?”


    “Guilty? Look who’s talking! You were the one who sneaked up on me. I was frightened, not guilty,” Wu


    Nian retorted, giving him a side-eye.


    Gu Mingchen let out a snort and said nothing as if he could not care less.


    His attitude, on the contrary, made her seem to be one who felt guilty and tried hard to defend herself.


    Looking at his indifferent demeanor, she had no choice but to swallow her anger.

    Then, Gu Mingchen nced away from her and locked his eyes on Aaron. “I’ve told Stephen I will stay


    to help him tonight.”


    Both Aaron and Wu Nian were left speechless.


    “I’m here to tell you this. Mm, I’m hungry, too. We should have lunch.” After he finished speaking, he


    went away.


    Wu Nian and Aaron looked at each other. Both of them were weirded out by Gu Mingchen’s odd


    behavior.


    A momentter, Aaron shed Wu Nian a meaningful smile. “Such an interesting person.”


    Interesting person, huh? Wu Nianughed inwardly. Oh, Aaron, you’re mistaken; Gu Mingchen is


    clearly a domineering person.


    “I had a big breakfast this morning, so I’m actually not hungry now. Do you want to go to the beach with


    me to catch some crabs?” Wu Nian asked.


    The smile on Aaron’s face instantly became brighter. “Sounds great. Grab a bucket. We should be able


    to catch a lot of crabs on the beach now. We might even find sea urchins, too.”


    Wu Nian suddenly recalled the time she and Gu Mingchen had been stranded on a deserted ind.


    She missed everything there – sunset, evening breeze, beach, campfire, crabs, fish, bamboo shoots,


    and wild boar. I especially missed the sweet bamboo shoots and the juicy wild boar meat. They’re so


    delicious when eaten together.


    Even to this day, she had never eaten food as tasty as the one she had back then.


    Her lips quirked up as she reminisced the good times she shared with Gu Mingchen. “Let me call Liu


    Yan. We can all get those crabs together.”


    Looking adoringly at the gentle smile tugging at her lips, Aaron reached over and held her hand.


    Wu Nian turned to him in response, thinking that he had something to say.


    Then, he swiftly pulled her towards him and carried her into his arms.


    “What…”


    She was about to object when he interrupted, “Time to catch the crabs!”


    As soon as he said that, he put her down and beamed at her.


    Smiling wryly at his childish behavior, she motioned him to look for Liu Yan together. “Let’s go.”


    Half an hourter, they arrived at the beach with a bucket, two small spades, and rubber gloves.


    As they walked on the shore, the crabs immediately scrambled away from them. Those that were near


    to the sea rushed into the water while the rest burrowed into the sand. Nevertheless, they were able to


    catch a number of them.


    There were a lot of crabs here. Stephen usually did not eat seafood due to gout.


    Being here on the beach brought back the memories of her and Gu Mingchen catching crabs at the


    seashore once again.


    Back then, Gu Mingchen had used a fishing to catch a lot of fish and crabs. The freshly caught


    crabs were naturally salty and delicious. Thinking of those moments made her yearn to go back in time


    and enjoy those moments again.


    If it weren’t for my illness, I would’ve stayed on that ind and lived a simple life with Gu Mingchen


    forever.


    However, it was a dream that would nevere true.


    Wu Nian was holding a crab with a silly smile when Aaron asked her, “Is it okay for us to skip lunch at


    Stephen’s ce and eat the crabs here instead?”


    “Sure. But you have asthma. So, I’ll be one cooking the crabs while continue to find delicious creatures


    for us. When they are cooked, I will call you over to enjoy them.”


    “I like this division of work.” He then took out a lighter and handed it to her. “Thanks for cooking the


    food for us.”


    “You’re wee,” she beamed with a smile.


    As Liu Yan searched for dried sticks and branches, Wu Nian went on to gather some stones, arranging


    them in a circle before putting a bigger stone in the middle. After the former brought back some


    firewood, she started a fire. Then, she put the crab on a stone and pressed it with a twig for five


    minutes.


    After a while, five cooked crabs sat on big leaves that had been picked out by Liu Yan.


    “They look so delicious. Nian, I’m getting hungry.” Sitting next to Wu Nian, Liu Yan reached over to grab


    one of the freshly grilled crabs.


    Before she could touch those crabs, Wu Nian stopped her. “Be careful, they’re still hot. You can enjoy


    them once I’m done cooking these crabs here. The crabs won’t be that hot by then.”


    Listening to her words, Liu Yan went toy down on the sand with her hands behind her head, enjoying


    the blue sky and the sea breeze. “It feels good to be here.”


    Wu Nian raised a smile and nced at her. “When Gu Mingchen and I were on that deserted ind, we


    also had wild boars, wolves, chickens, bamboo shoots, mushrooms, and vegetables. Gu Mingchen had


    a pistol with him, so we were not afraid of the wild animals. We also built a house on a tree near to the


    sea. Everything was perfect; I could live my whole life there.”


    As Liu Yan looked at the smile on her face, she finally understood why Wu Nian was in such a good


    mood today.


    It was because she was reminded of the happy times with Gu Mingchen on that ind.


    I don’t believe Wu Nian doesn’t love Gu Mingchen.


    With that in mind, Liu Yan grabbed a crab and tore it into two.


    “Yan, isn’t it hot?” Wu Nian asked worriedly.


    Liu Yan put the crab back on the leaf and blew on her red palms. “Nian, sometimes, love is like this hot


    crab. If you don’t let go of it, you will eventually hurt yourself. Sometimes it’s better to give up.”


    “I understand, you silly girl. Wait a moment.” Wu Nian walked into the woods, and after a while, she


    brought out a cactus and ced it on a leaf. Then, she crushed it with a branch and smeared the juice


    on Liu Yan’s hands.


    “Aloe vera, cactus, or green tea added with sesame oil can be very effective in treating burns,” Wu


    Nian suggested.


    “Many people tend to forget the pain after the wound heals.” Liu Yan sighed.


    A flicker of emotion shed through Wu Nian’s eyes, but she did not say anything and continued grilling


    the crabs, lost in thought.


    Her thoughts continued to wander until someone sat down beside her, filling her nose with a familiar


    scent.


    She immediately looked up and saw Gu Mingchen sitting next to her. Liu Yan was long gone.
