Chapter 464 A Pleasant Visit From A Friend

It was already ten when they finished breakfast. Gu Mingchen left the house to attend to some business while the traditional medicine practitioner dropped by to check on her. After checking her pulse, he told her that she could go off her medication. She was also allowed to move about, though vigorous exercise was still out of the question.

She had practiced as a gynecologist in the past, so she understood his concerns. She returned to her room and read some psychology books. She closed her eyes and tried to perform a self-diagnosis, using her past cases as a comparison.

That afternoon, Aunt Wang prepared a scrumptious spread. Bai Rong wasn’t picky, and she ate everything that was served. She continued reading her books after lunch and took a nap when she began to feel sleepy.

She was awakened by the sound of her phone ringing. She saw that it was Aaron, and she picked up the call. “Aaron, it’s been a while.” She was pleasantly surprised at his call.

“’I’ve completed the paperwork using the information on your identity card. I’ll need your signature before the money can be transferred into your account.” “Do I need to go to Ustrana?”

“No, you may drop by the lawyer’s office. Or, I can ask the lawyer and Mr. Tang to come to your place.”

“I’ll go to the lawyer’s office. It would be inappropriate for grandpa to come for me instead. By the way, I’d love to treat both of you to a meal,” Bai Rong replied happily.

“We can meet at my house then. You wouldn’t be able to cook up a storm in that tiny space on the yacht.” “Your house?” Bai Rong asked. “You bought a house in A City?”

“Yes, I thought this city has some potential. If I wanted to stay here and build my roots, I thought it’d be good to have my own digs. I bought a house in Qing Shan Gardens, and it’s fully renovated so I could move in immediately. It’s more peaceful here, and the fresh air has been doing wonders for my health.”

“Qing Shan Gardens, you say? It’s really close to my place—probably just a ten-minute drive away. When did you buy the house? Also, why didn’t you get in touch with me when you came to A City? Some friend you are,” Bai Rong teased.

I’ve never seen Aaron as anything less than a friend.

“I wasn’t done with the paperwork yet then. Besides, I hadn’t bought a house. I thought it would be troublesome if I’d contacted you back then. But now, everything’s finally settled.”

“I’ll come over now—send me your address. I’m so excited to see you again,” said Bai Rong as she got off the bed.

“Great, you should bring Gu Mingchen along. He’ll definitely be worried if you come here alone. Who knows, he might even be jealous.”

Bai Rong’s heart warmed. “Ok.”

She immediately called Gu Mingchen after she hung up. Gu Mingchen rejected the call but sent a text in reply: In a meeting right now. I’ll call you after it’s done. Meeting?

She figured the meeting either took place at the company or the military base. Judging by Gu Mingchen’s character, he wouldn’t dismiss her call unless there was an important matter at hand.

She wasn’t going to be petulant and merely replied: Ok. As she left the house, she saw that Aaron had texted her his address. “Aunt Wang, where is the car parked? I’m going out for a while,” Bai Rong asked politely.

“Oh, you’re going out. Just wait here.” Aunt Wang made a call to someone. “The Young Mistress is going out. Please bring the car around.”

After she hung up, she addressed Bai Rong courteously, “You’re pregnant now, and you shouldn’t be driving yourself. Mr. Gu has already told us to arrange for someone to drive you around when you need the car.”

Gu Mingchen has thought farther ahead than I have. ”Alright. Thank you, Aunt Wang.”

“Mr. Gu also said to make sure you wear extra layers before leaving the house. He doesn’t want you to catch a cold,” reminded Aunt Wang.

“Alright.” Bai Rong wrapped a scarf around herself before she left. She realized that it was snowing. Snowflakes fluttered down lightly from the sky.

Her mood lifted immediately. She walked out the door and reached out her hands, grabbing hold of the falling snow. She took a selfie and sent it to Gu Mingchen.

Let’s not send him another photo in case it’s disturbing him. The car was brought around. She’d met the driver before. It was one of the Shadow Samurais who’d saved Zhou Hailan’s life.

Bai Rong showed him the address. The driver knew where it was, and they set off. Bai Rong leaned against the window, smiling as she took in the snowy scene. “The Chief went to the military base today,” said the driver.

Just as I thought. Bai Rong murmured in acknowledgment. “I’m very happy,” the driver continued. Bai Rong looked at him as a bright smile appeared on her face. “That’s great.” “The Chief is finally back for good.” The driver himself was sporting a huge smile.

“Yes, he’s back for good.” Bai Rong could understand their sentiments. As military men, they shared a strong bond and passion for their work. When they found out that Gu Mingchen was leaving, she knew they would feel upset and dejected, though no one had expressed their emotions.

They must be overjoyed at Gu Mingchen’s return to the military base to re-assume his role as the Chief.

She arrived at Aaron’s place a short car ride later. Bai Rong suddenly realized that she came empty- handed. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

This was her first time visiting Aaron’s house, and her grandpa would be there as well. She asked the driver, “Is there a fruit shop nearby?”

“There’s one, and it isn’t too far from here. Would you like to go there now?”

“Yes, please.”

Bai Rong bought two fruit baskets and several bonsais before going back to Aaron’s house.

Aaron himself opened the door. He’d switched on the heating system indoors. Dressed casually, he said, “You’re here!”

Bai Rong looked around the interior of his house. Aaron has great taste—each room is minimally decorated, yet it exudes such tasteful elegance. The whole ambiance is elevated by the classical music playing in the background.

“Where is my grandpa?”

“He went out for a bit. I think he’ll be back just in time for dinner. I also asked the lawyer to drop by, so you can just sign the papers after dinner. He’ll take care of the rest of the formalities. The money

should be in your account within three working days,” explained Aaron as he placed the bonsai next to the TV. It was an excellent complement to the decor of the room.

“Where’s the kitchen?” Bai Rong asked. “I want to start cooking.”

“It’s here.” Aaron pointed at the bar counter.

Bai Rong laughed. “Don’t tell me you actually put your kitchen in the living room?”

“I’m just pulling your leg. There’s another one in the back. Follow me.” Aaron walked ahead.

Bai Rong followed him into the kitchen, amazed at how well-equipped it was. “This looks like the kitchen of a person who really knows how to enjoy life.”

“I prepared this for my future wife,” Aaron confessed.

“Oh my god, I’m about to die from laughter. If your future wife finds out about this, she’s going to slap you up the side of your head.” Bai Rong entered the kitchen and opened the fridge, which was stuffed to the brim with ingredients.

“I love eating at home. It feels nice and cozy,” Aaron explained simply.

“Great minds think alike then. I happen to agree with that sentiment.” Bai Rong took out a variety of cooking ingredients.

“That should be more than enough. If we count Gu Mingchen in, you only need to feed six of us.”

“Six?”

“Gu Mingchen, the lawyer, Mr. Tang, Ling, and the both of us,” said Aaron.

“Ling is coming again?” Bai Rong scrunched her brows. Ling is infatuated with both Su Xuyan and Gu Mingchen.
