You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 421


    Chapter 421 His Life


    She knew what it was like to lose someone you hold dear to your heart—the world would be in shades


    of grey.


    Even when she was surrounded by people, she would still feel hollow deep down.


    No matter how high the temperature was in summer, she would feel chilly.


    Every meal, she would recall how much he loved braised pork and how he would remove the bones in


    the fish before giving her the flesh.


    When she went to bed at night, she would remember how she used his arm as a pillow.


    When she walked down the street, she would recall how he told her to walk inside and how he took her


    hand before leading her across the road.


    Whenever she switched on the TV, she would remember how the man apanied her when she


    used to watch soap operas. But instead of changing channels, he would be on his phone.


    When she was cold, he would drape his jacket over her and hold her hand to warm her up, and he


    would allow her to rest in his embrace or bring her to bed whenever she was tired.


    As those thoughts urred to her, Bai Rong felt a searing pain in her heart, and she had a strong urge


    to die on the spot. She wished that heaven existed so that they could reunite there one day.


    She couldn’t afford to lose Gu Mingchen. Even though she had to stay away from him, she refused to


    burden him.


    At the sight of Bai Rong sobbing, Gu Mingchen’s heart clenched in agony. He wiped her tears away


    with his thumb gently. “Let’s talk about thatter. At least we’re doing fine now.”


    Bai Rong lowered her gaze wordlessly.


    After that, Gu Mingchen unlocked the door and led her in.


    Right then, she could hear their dog barking.


    Poor little thing… It’s always starving.


    At once, Bai Rong fed her dog and brought it some water. She watched in a daze as the dog gobbled


    up the food andpped at the water happily.


    Dogs were merry creatures because they weren’t greedy. They hadn’t had many hardships in life and


    were easily satisfied. As long as food and water were provided, they would wag their tails happily.


    On the other hand, human beings were emotional beings. The greedier one was, the harder it was for


    one to be happy.


    Gu Mingchen handed her a bottle of milk. “Drink this. It can boost your immunity. From today onward,


    drink one bottle every day.”


    Bai Rong took the bottle from him and stood up. Her eyes were still red as she finished the milk in one


    gulp.


    “Tomorrow, you shall follow me to work. I’ll tell the HR department to prepare your contract.” Gu


    Mingchen took the empty bottle from her and went to the kitchen to wash up.


    Bai Rong nced at his back and narrowed her gaze. A sharp glint shed across her eyes.


    I won’t let you die.


    Let me share your burden.


    If I die, promise me you’ll take good care of Yanny.


    After all, I can’t survive without you.


    When Gu Mingchen came out of the kitchen, Bai Rong was taking a shower. She was deep in thought


    as she stood under the shower head and allowed the water to run down her naked figure.


    Her eyes fluttered open when she heard the door opening.


    It was Gu Mingchen with a robe in his hands. He took off his clothes and came to a stop in front of Bai


    Rong.


    She stood on her tiptoes and pressed a kiss on his jaw.


    Naturally, Gu Mingchen wrapped his arms around her waist as their lips touched. A spark sizzled in the


    air and flowed into their veins.


    Gu Mingchen then led her to the tub. Their passionate kisses brought the temperature in the bathroom


    to a new high.


    He elevated her legs and wrapped them around his waist. Looking up, they saw desire and affection in


    each other’s gaze.


    A trace of bitterness crept into Bai Rong’s heart as she inched nearer to him.


    Gu Mingchen lowered his head and trailed kisses over her eyes, nose, lips, and across her corbone


    gently.


    The waterpped in the tub and sshed onto the ground rhythmically.


    Again and again, they lost themselves in the throes of passion.


    Holding him tight, tears spilled down Bai Rong’s cheek when he wasn’t looking. She lowered her head


    and bit his shoulder hard, leaving her mark on him.


    Fifteen minutester, their movements gradually subsided, and only the sounds of their breathing could


    be heard in the bathroom.


    Both of them gazed at each other silently.


    As a broad smile appeared on Gu Mingchen’s face, he pinched her nose affectionately and stood up.


    Bai Rong rose to her feet and flung her arms around him. “Gu Mingchen, I won’t be going to work


    tomorrow. I want to go to the temple.”


    “Temple?” Gu Mingchen was taken aback. “Since when do you believe in that?”


    “Starting today,” said Bai Rong.


    “Okay. I’ll go with you tomorrow.” He reached out and took the robe before helping her to put it on.


    “Don’t catch a cold.”

    After putting on the robe, Bai Rong went out to change into her pajamas. Lying on the bed, she nced


    at the clock and closed her eyes when she realized that it was almost midnight.


    Soon, Gu Mingchen came to her side after brushing his teeth and observed her serene expression.


    Bai Rong was waiting for him to switch off the lights, but he didn’t move an inch. The moment she


    opened her eyes, they met his adoring ones. “Aren’t you going to bed? It’s gettingte.”


    Gu Mingchen ran a finger across her nose. “You didn’t get any work done on your forehead, nose, and


    ears, right?”


    “Let’s see… I did my eyes, lips, and jaw. I also had a facelift and changed my eyebrow shape. Back


    then, I used to be a little miserable-looking,” exined Bai Rong.


    Gu Mingchen chuckled in amusement. “Why didn’t I notice that you looked miserable?”


    Bai Rong found her own remark hrious too. “Time to sleep.”


    Nodding, Gu Mingchen switched off the lights.


    Bai Rong turned and slept with her back to him.


    Gu Mingchen inched closer to her and pulled her into his embrace.


    Feeling dizzy, Bai Rong fell asleep in no time.


    She had a dream that night.


    In the dream, Gu Mingchen was asking her to join him on a vacation to Nuthana and pulled her onto a


    bus.


    There were only a few people on the bus. The driver was fiddling with a figurine of a mythical creature


    and told her that it cost twelve thousand.


    The creature was strange-looking, and she had no idea what it was made of.


    Soon, they arrived at a town. Right then, Bai Rong spotted a weird building ahead, which was


    seemingly enveloped by radio waves and a maic field. Without warning, it exploded into pieces.


    She yelled, “Gu Mingchen, run!”


    Gu Mingchen took her hand, and they escaped swiftly.


    Fearfully, she covered her head with her arm as rocks fell all over them. Suddenly, when she spun her


    head in Gu Mingchen’s direction, there was no one to be seen.


    Her heart clenched in terror as she squatted down in front of a house at the back of the exploded


    building. Helplessly, she stared at the raining rocks and corpses. Shortly after, it began to rain heavily.


    Concerned for Gu Mingchen’s safety, she ran out and searched for him everywhere. Instead of finding


    him, she bumped into Liu Yan, who told her that Gu Mingchen was killed by a huge boulder.


    Hearing that, she wept in her dream.


    “Rong? Rong!” Gu Mingchen gave her a slight push.


    When Bai Rong’s eyes snapped open, Gu Mingchen was right in front of her.


    Although it was just a dream, grief still overwhelmed her heart.


    Gu Mingchen wiped her tears away gently and consoled her. “It was just a dream. I’m right here.”
