You Owe Me, My Love
Chapter 355

Chapter 355 Uncontrollable

Bai Rong opened her eyes and locked gaze with Gu Mingchen. Her gaze was distant and cold."What if the woman does not like you? And she’s married to someone else, and even bears a childfor the other man?” Aaron pressed on.

“I believe that she will not give up on us either,” Gu Mingchen said determinedly.

“Hah.” Aaron chuckled. “Mr. Gu is one of those half-cup-full people. Well, I hope all the best to youtwo.”

“Aaron,” Wu Nian called out, “Would you accompany me out on the deck?”

“Sure.”

Wu Nian set her gaze out into the distance, where the skyline and the sea met.

September's wind felt breezy and brisk against her face, giving her a sense of tranquility.

Aaron regarded her silky smooth hair brushing against the wind and felt a tickle in his heart. Helowered his head and pecked on her cheek.

Wu Nian looked at him and noticed Gu Mingchen who was eyeing them behind their backs. Shesaid nothing.

Aaron looked into her eyes and his lips curled into a smile. “Your eyes are so clear and pure, and areeven more beautiful than the sea.”

"Don’t be deceived by looks. Beauty is just skin-deep. I've done a lot of things wrong, and I get thechills every time I listen to that,” Wu Nian retorted ruthlessly.

“You're so special that you make me want to treasure you. I'm starting to worry that you might getsnatched away,” Aaron said with his unwavering smile.

"What's yours can never be taken away. It's futile to try and hold on to things that don’t belong toyou,” Wu Nian said dryly.

Aaron hooked her chin and lowered his head as he was about to plant a kiss on her lips.

A hint of disdain flashed across her face.

Aaron was a Ustranasion, and they were more liberal with physical contact. She could accept that apeck on the cheek was a cultural thing. However, a kiss on the lips was too much.

However, she knew Gu Mingchen was watching.

Not only was Aaron going to be embarrassed if she had rejected him outright, but she also wouldn'tbe able to keep her story straight either.

Begrudgingly, she closed her eyes as her chest heaved. She felt a warm sensation on her lips.

Aaron pressed on, his tongue gently tracing her lips.

Wu Nian did not like it. She retracted and turned around to face the sea. She did not wish for GuMingchen to notice her odd demeanor.

"What's the matter?” Aaron was perplexed. He hadn't had enough.

“I practice moderation in everything I do. That's how you don't get sick of something,” Wu Nianmumbled an excuse

"Are you a love expert?” Aaron queried.

“Do you wish that I'm one? Or not?” The woman regarded him

“I hope you are. I'll continue to improve myself to keep up with you. That way we'd never get sick ofeach other,” Aaron chuckled.

"You really do offer a fresh perspective. You'll realize whether I am, or not, sometime down the road.How long till we get to Stephen's place?” Wu Nian steered the conversation in another direction.The man cast a glance at his wristwatch and said, “We have another two hours.”

“I think Gu Mingchen is also here to convince Stephen to help him out. What do you think Yan isgoing to offer so that he decides to help her out instead?” Wu Nian wanted to hear Aaron's opinionon the matter.

"Stephen is a quirky man, and it's quite hard to grasp what's on his mind. That chap is an eccentricold man,” Aaron commented.

“Then how did you become best friends with him?” Wu Nian asked, puzzled.

“Because he wants to be friends with me,” Aaron explained.

Wu Nian seemed to have gotten the gist of it.

It all depends on how Stephen sees Liu Yan and Gu Mingchen for him to decide on who to help.

“I need to use the restroom.” Wu Nian turned around. Gu Mingchen was no longer standing there.Her gaze darkened upon the realization.

I think he should know that I'm not Bai Rong when he sees Aaron kissing me.

There is nothing left between us. We are going on our separate ways from now onward.

Wu Nian made her way to the restroom. Her arm was grabbed by someone before she managed tostep inside.

She was startled. Lifting her head, she noticed that it was Gu Mingchen. “What are you doing?”

Gu Mingchen’s lips pursed into a hard line as he dragged her into the restroom and locked the doorbehind them. He perched his right hand on her right side just above her head, cornering her. Helasered in on her as he demanded, “Who are you?"

"What does it have anything to do with you?” Wu Nian furrowed her brows. Gu Mingchen lookedterrifying right then.

Gu Mingchen pinched her two cheeks, his voice getting hoarse and stern. She could almost feel hisbreath on her face as he gritted his teeth. “You act like you're Bai Rong, and yet you say it hasnothing to do with me? Now you're playing hard to get? What is it that you want? Don't tell me thatyou have no ulterior motive in applying to become my child's home tutor!”

Wu Nian glared at him. “What ulterior motive do you think I have then, Mr. Gu?”

"You are seducing me, and when I fall in love with you, you're going to become a ticking time bombby my side, and in turn securing Shen Yiyan's status,” the man growled in a low voice, gauging herevery expression.

“Well, am I getting ahead of the game then?” Wu Nian retorted as her gaze turned sharp.

“That's impossible,” Gu Mingchen snapped.

"Since that's impossible, then what are you afraid of? Even if I do go out of my way to seduce you, Iwouldn't succeed anyway because you already had your mind set. There's no need to come andwarn me, much less demand for my answer,” Wu Nian spat out every word in a resolute tone.

For a split second, Gu Mingchen was in a daze.

The way she talks, her tone, and her demeanor... are exactly like Bai Rong.

“So you're really seducing me?” Gu Mingchen narrowed his eyes at her with a cold, hard stare.

"You wouldn't have believed me even if I say that everything is just a coincidence.” Wu Nian wastrying to get away as she tried to sneak out from under his arms.

The man grabbed at her arm and immobilized her against the wall with his body. He looked downat her in a domineering manner. “My subordinate has done a background check on you. You did notgrow up in an orphanage. You only appeared in the orphanage over a year ago.”

Even your resume is fake. The school that you've gone to had someone named Wu Nian. But that isnot you.

That means your real name isn’t even Wu Nian. Shen Yiyan has given you a fake identity card. Whatelse do you have to say?

“Yes.” Wu Nian lifted her chin and looked straight into Gu Mingchen’s eyes. “I'm sent by Shen Yiyan,because my voice is similar to Bai Rong, and I look decent. And so, they've cultivated me to behavelike her. The goal is simple. My job is to seduce you and make you fall in love with me. That way, Iwill be able to stay by your side and monitor your every move. Are you satisfied with the answerthen?”

Gu Mingchen furrowed his brows. “You're not even trying to seduce me. Why would you be in arelationship with another man, even kissing him right in front of me to seduce me? Did you do it onpurpose?”

“Because I've realized that your personality is not compatible with me, and I don’t want to sacrificemy whole life being together with you. I want to break free from Shen Yiyan's control!” Wu Niansnarled at him.

Gu Mingchen lowered his head and kissed her right on the lips right after.
