You Owe Me, My Love

You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 197

“Have you forgotten the lesson in the past?” Song Xiyu warned her.

In the past, both Song Xiyu and Gu Tianhang had kidnapped her and threatened Gu Mingchen to marry Su Wanning. They even amputated her finger. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

That thought made her feel hurtful.

Bai Rong turned pale and curled her lips, “I’ve recorded everything down. That kidnapping incident occurred three years ago was done by you guys and the reason for kidnapping me had something to do with Governor Cheng. I’ve stated all names that were involved in the kidnapping. I left that piece of information back in America in a black box and is under the watch of my friend. Given my popularity in this industry, I believe many professionals from all over the world will believe what I have written. Even if it’s a fake, many will still buy it. What more, my copy is genuine and it has proof to support it.”

“Are you out of your mind? Do you know how many will get involved if words were to leak out?” Song Xiyu said, feeling uneasy.

“It’s not up to me to decide upon that but your sanity! Nothing will happen if my life is secured. However, if I were to face danger, then that leaves me no choice. I could bother less about others as I need to protect myself.” Bai Rong said coldly as her eyes were glittering ferociously.

“You’re one cunning woman. Does Mingchen know about it?” Song Xiyu asked as her face turned pale.

“There are many who forget what they have done when they’re questioning other people. Madam Song, speaking of being cunning, have you ever thought of what you’ve done?” Bai Rong said calmly.

“You’re good with words, I’ll never approve of you marrying into our family.” Song Xiyu said, feeling exasperated.

Bai Rong let out a smile, “Nothing will change regardless of your approval. If you treat me well as a daughter-in-law, naturally, I will treat you well too, like my mom.”

“Forget it. I don’t have such a daughter-in-law.” Song Xiyu rejected flat out.

Bai Rong instantly got the message, “Then if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up the call.”

“Bai Rong, you want to marry into our family, but have you thought about the attitude you’re having right now? If Mingchen marries you, that makes me your mother-in-law. Your behavior will place your husband in a rather difficult position.” Song Xiyu lectured her as an elder.

“Ever since the beginning, you kept threatening me, making me recall the incident that took place three years ago. You should be thankful that I’m still able to talk to you. Like what you just said, you won’t acknowledge me as your daughter-in-law, so why should I acknowledge you in return? Besides, it’s not me who will place Gu Mingchen in a difficult position, but you. Also, you despise me, always looking at me skeptically and the situation will not improve with me giving in to you. It will only get worse if I compromise and I’ll always have to live my life in the shadows. The last person I should let down is myself. I’m sorry but I don’t plan on giving in.” Bai Rong said in a cold tone.

She was well aware since three years ago that it was important to have power and not just crying around and begging others while leaving your fate in their hands.

There would be times where others would do whatever it took to frame you and would not just let you off the hook just because you pleaded.

Therefore, all she did was just to protect herself.

Three years ago, she was helpless as she could not defend against the malicious ambush of Song Xiyu and Gu Tianhang.

However, three years had passed. She was no longer the helpless lady she used to be.

“You insist on marrying my son, don’t you?!” Song Xiyu was enraged.

“What’s your thought about that?” Bai Rong counter-questioned.

“Three years ago, I thought of you as an obedient little girl. Looks like I’ve misjudged you. I should not have let you off the hook if I know you will turn out to be like this.” Song Xiyu said with much hatred.

“I’m not bothered whether you’ve misjudged me or not. Alright, I’m hanging up.” Bai Rong hung up the call before Song Xiyu could even speak.

Despite expressing explicitly that she was not bothered, she took it personally deep into her heart.

After all, that woman was Gu Mingchen’s mother, the mother of the man she loved.

Bai Rong turned to look at Gu Mingchen. “I’m sorry, I can’t get along with your mom.”

He glanced ahead without any expression.

All the past information about Bai Rong was erased. He had long ago known what his parents had done in the past as they forbade him from investigating the past.

“Three years ago, my parents had kidnapped you and threatened me to marry Su Wanning, right?” Gu Mingchen asked coldly.

“Your parents thought you should marry someone better. Perhaps, they did it out of their love for you.” Bai Rong said as she then turned to face out the window.

She did not wish to stand in between Gu Mingchen and his parents.

“They amputated your little finger. I’ve chopped my little finger as well to force my parents to give in. In the end, I’m just engaged to Su Wanning.” Gu Mingchen said.

Bai Rong looked into Gu Mingchen’s eyes.

At that moment, Gu Tianhang forced Gu Mingchen to marry Su Wanning. Actually, it was all because Su Zheng had the evidence of his father’s wrongdoing.

Everyone would never wish that their parents were villains.

However, she kept the truth to herself.

It was not because of how noble she was. She just did not want the man she loved to be depressed.

“Well, everything is over. Aren’t we now together after enduring all the sufferings?” Bai Rong said with a smile as she quickly changed the topic.

Gu Mingchen clenched Bai Rong’s hands, eyes fixed upon her, not saying a single word.

He was a man with a few words, yet his eyes were telling that he was keeping a lot of things to himself.

Without them realizing it, they had arrived at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

“Before we get married, you can state any request you have.” Gu Mingchen said while holding onto her hands.

“I’ve only one request.” Bai Rong had seriously thought about it before speaking.

Gu Mingchen looked at her and said, “What’s that?”

“If I want to divorce one day, I hope you will agree to it. Being married to someone in the military means that the wife can’t propose a divorce, but the man can. Can you promise me that?” Bai Rong said.

Gu Mingchen felt a sting in his heart as he frowned his brows. His expression darkened, “We’re not even married yet, but you’re already thinking about divorcing?”

“Everyone never thought about divorcing when it comes to marrying someone; However, when it comes to divorce, no one ever thought about getting back together again. That is because they only think about the good side of their other half when they’re getting married, but when it comes to divorce, they will only think about the downside of their other half. I think one should be more rational before getting married and that helps a lot to stabilize a marriage. What do you think?” Bai Rong tried to persuade Gu Mingchen.

“I think, sometimes you’re just being too inconsiderate.” Said Gu Mingchen with a deep voice.

She felt it was rather inappropriate for him to describe her that way.

Perhaps she really was inconsiderate as she never had the chance to experience the love of a family.

The corner of Bai Rong’s lips curled, “Why not…”

“I got it.” Gu Mingchen interrupted her.
