You Owe Me, My Love

You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 21

Gu Mingchen took his clothes, buttoned up his shirt and opened the door to go out.

Su Xuyan turned his head and saw the man holding the exact same set of clothes.

He put on a smug smile on his face and threw the clothes back to the store assistant, “I don’t like clothes worn by others. Get me a new one.”

The assistant was stunned a little while looking at Gu Mingchen and blushed.

He had a better figure than professional models.

The clothes he put on only further outlined the attractiveness of his physique.

He had broad shoulders; a small waist; and a body that exuded the smell of testosterone which made people’s hearts race.

How could someone look so fine in the real world?

Gu Mingchen passed by Su Xuyan indifferently without taking any heed of his sarcasm.

He handed the clothes to the cashier and said in a deep voice, “Wrap it up for me.”

“Sure, do you prefer to pay by cash or PayPal?” The assistant asked shyly with a slight blush on her face.

Gu Mingchen didn’t say anything but he handed over a black card to the assistant.

A black card?

This type of card couldn’t be obtained by just an average wealthy person. The person right in front must be someone influential and powerful.

Su Xuyan had his hazy eyes locked on Gu Mingchen and grinned maliciously.

He also took out a black card. Holding it with his fingers, he handed it to the assistant, “Wrap all of the Black Series 190 for me except the one on that person’s hand.”

The assistant’s eyes lit up at once.

Did fortune just smile on her today?

One was a cool and handsome man who gave off a smell of unattainable desires; Another one was a charming, fine guy who made people fidgeted and pinched their lips.

The point was that they were all wealthy.

“Sure.” The assistant said in excitement.

Standing upright without any ripples in his plain eyes, Gu Mingchen turned his head and glanced at Su Xuyan nonchalantly. It was a clear provoke.

Then, Su Xuyan vapidly took out a piece of golden business card from his wallet and put it on the counter, “Send them to this address.”

“Okay, sure!” The assistant respectfully took the card.

Su Xuyan sneered again before exiting the shop.

“Wow, what a handsome man. Is he a celebrity? He has a good temperament.” A group of salespersons collectively became infatuated.

Gu Mingchen eyes sank as deep as the vast ocean.

He took the clothes and walked towards the door of the changing room then knocked on the door twice, “He’s gone. You may come out now!”

Bai Rong walked out and saw the invoice in his hand, “How much is it? I thought I said I’ll buy it?”

“I’ve already paid for that. Let’s talk about it some other time.” Gu Mingchen looked at her deeply.

Bai Rong was conscience-stricken upon being looked at, “Well, I happen to have something to do, so I’ll leave now. I know your preference now, so I’ll buy it for you next time.”

“Let me send you back.” The man said in a deep voice.

For some reason, Bai Rong felt that he was not in a good mood. It was about the same as when they first met each other.

She was embarrassed and said, “It’s okay. I have an appointment with a friend.”

Finished speaking, she nodded at him and left as though she was escaping.

Gu Mingchen looked at her back while raising his eyebrows and the sharpness of his facial features gradually became more solid.

He called Su Junhao in a commanding tone, “Come out and have a drink with me.”

Su Junhao paused for a moment, “My friend and I have an appointment at Shuiyunjian. Do you want to join us?”

“I’ll be there in a while.” Gu Mingchen hung up the call and walked out hastily.

There were things that couldn’t be solved by avoiding it; There were things that must be confronted eventually.

She called Su Xuyan. He answered, but remained silent.

“I want to have a peaceful talk with you. Are you free now?” Bai Rong asked in a cheerless tone.

“I’m at your house.” Su Xuyan hung up as soon as he finished speaking.

There were lingering fears as Bai Rong recalled the events that happened before. She bought a pepper spray at the drugstore before returning home.

Su Xuyan sat on the sofa with an antique walnut rotating between his fingers on one hand, and playing with his phone on another. There was a wry grin on his face.

He seemed to be in a good mood. When she sat across him, she accidentally peeped the screen of his chat.

Heartless Person: My wife didn’t agree at first. But as soon as she heard that you are coming, she agreed. Rebel, your charm is remarkable.

Rebel: Who else is with you apart from your family?

Heartless Person: Lee brought his new favorite here; She is a movie star with a super hot body. Jie, will your wife come as well?

Su Xuyan looked at Bai Rong, and she immediately retracted her gaze. She knew Rebel was the username of Su Xuyan and Heartless Person was probably his friend.

“Shall we go to the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow if you are free?” Bai Rong asked softly.

Su Xuyan’s eyes flashed a sorrowful look and put his phone away, “Accompany me to a place tonight.”

“Where?” Bai Rong alerted.

“You’ll know when you are there.”

“I don’t want to.” Bai Rong refused immediately.

Su Xuyan flashed a sly grin, “Don’t you want to get what you have always wanted? You know full well that if you anger me, your future will be miserable. A word from me will decide if you will lose your job.”

Bai Rong couldn’t help hating him. She must be out of her mind to love a nasty person like him back then.

“Why are you taking me there tonight?” Bai Rong asked suspiciously and squinted her eyes. She wanted to grasp the situation.

“Meet up with Zhang Zi and the rest. Heartless Person is his username. They are eager to meet you,” Su Xuyan said lightly.

“We are getting a divorce soon. There is no reason for me to meet your friends. Things would be awkward if we meet them again in the future right?” Bai Rong stood up.

“Awkward or not is a topic for another time. But if you’re not going with me later, it will be awkward for me. You know the price of offending me. Get changed and let’s go,” Su Xuyan said without giving any room for resistance.

“You will agree to the divorce if I go, right?” Bai Rong asked coldly.

Su Xuyan raised his chin arrogantly with a contemptuous look and put on a wicked smile, “Why do you think I am not divorcing you?”

“Ok. I’ll get changed and go with you.” Bai Rong entered the room and locked it.

She disliked Su Xuyan’s friends. They were all of the same kind; every single one of them was a womanizer. Their love for an opulent, decadent and hedonistic life made things even more unbearable for her.

She deliberately put on jeans, sneakers, and a conservative checkered shirt; then tied her hair in an old-fashioned manner and wore a pair of black frame glasses.

She tried to be as old-fashioned as she could be considering that she would say goodbye to those scumbags after today.

Su Xuyan frowned in dissatisfaction as Bai Rong came out of the room, “Are you a country bumpkin? Why is your attire so unfashionable?”

“What’s wrong? My dressing sense is always this bad.” Bai Rong answered nonchalantly with a little provocative tone.

Su Xuyan shrugged his shoulders and changed to his usual smug grin, “Not really! This looks unique and innocent too.”

Bai Rong really detested the look of his eyes. He seemed to be taking her as a prey, which was very dangerous.

He threw the car key to her, “You drive. Shuiyunjian.”
