You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 443

Chapter 443 Why Are They Here?

Bai Rong looked at Ling and smiled.

She had done some research on personalities back in the United States.

A person’s personality is directly related to the environment that they grew up in. Children from a happy and wholesome household tend to be more outgoing and optimistic. On the contrary, those from families with issues would be more reserved and glummer. However, happy households could branch out into many different kinds as well, so that led to the formation of different personalities too.

It was obvious that Ling grew up in an environment where she was adored and given lots of love. Hence, she was lively, adorable, sunny, and carefree.

If her mom did not go missing, would she become an optimistic person instead?

A person with this kind of personality would probably be more attractive, unlike her…

Bai Rong thought of Gu Mingchen, and the look in her eyes darkened slightly.

“If you happen to know any exemplary men,” said Aaron’s grandmother, “please introduce them to Ling.”

Bai Rong thought about it for a while, then gave Aaron a light poke. “He’s the best man that I have ever met,” she claimed.

Ling snorted, “Stop being all lovey-dovey. Aaron’s great, but he does not think I’m good enough for him.”

“It’s not that I think you’re not good enough. We’re just not compatible,” Aaron corrected.

“Humph! There’s no need to explain. Your explanation is just a cover-up. Not that I care though,” Ling stuck out her tongue once more.

“She likes bad boys,” the other girl interjected while looking at Ling pointedly.

Ling got along well with her, so she teased her in response. “Nonsense! You’re the one who likes bad boys.”

Bai Rong smiled looking at the girls bantering.

She liked the harmonious vibe that they were emitting. It was full of joy and ease like afternoon during winter when warm rays of sunlight shone on your skin and made you feel warm.

“They are both are childish kiddos,” said Aaron to Bai Rong.

“That’s a good thing,” Bai Rong replied softly.

Not long after that, they reached the entrance of the A City Hotel. Bai Rong got down first, and the others followed her lead. She had reserved a private room in advance.

“Aaron, I know of a good fortune teller. Do you want to give it a try?” Bai Rong recommended. “The thing is, this fortune teller has quite a peculiar personality. He only sees three people each day and does not ask for any payment. It is based purely on his mood for the day.”

“Sure, this sounds interesting. Would he be able to tell my fortune? I’m an Ustranasion and not a local after all,” Aaron remarked.

Bai Rong shrugged, “Well, you won’t know if you don’t try. The scenery around that area is quite nice. If he’s unwilling to see you, we can just go sightseeing.”

“Sounds good,” said Aaron. He looked at Bai Rong dotingly, his eyes twinkling with affection.

Aaron’s grandmother looked at him and gave him a light smack on his hand.

Bewildered, he looked at his grandmother and asked, “Huh? What was that for?”

“Let’s go watch a movie tonight. I feel like watching a movie,” said Aaron’s grandmother merrily.

“There’s a movie with very high ratings. I’ve seen it, and I think it’s quite good. I’ll book the tickets so that we can all go watch it tonight,” Bai Rong recommended.

“Sure, that would be nice,” the jovial old lady agreed.

After everyone was seated in the private room, Bai Rong ordered a lot of dishes.

Halfway through the meal, Ling went out for a stroll and came back looking excited. As soon as she was seated, she whispered rapidly into the other girl’s ear.

“That’s Michelle, the two of them are best friends. They always hang out with each other,” Aaron informed Bai Rong.

“What are the two of you whispering about? Speak up. I would love to hear your interesting conversation,” said Aaron’s grandmother.

“Th-There are two really handsome men in another room. One looks cool, like a model from a magazine. The other one looks alluring with a unique aura. Do you want to go and have a look?” asked Ling, pointing at their door. The eagerness in her voice was unmistakable.

Ling truly had a warm and friendly personality.

“Are they as good-looking as Aaron?” asked Michelle.

“Pretty much, yeah,” muttered Ling. She dragged Michelle out soon.

Aaron could not hold back his curiosity either, so he followed suit and tugged Bai Rong along to go and have a look as well.

They walked through a very long corridor and made two turns.

Ling stretched her neck and peeked through the small window on the door. “They are so handsome, aren’t they?”

Bai Rong quickly scanned the interior of the room, and her face became ashen in an instant. The two men inside were Gu Mingchen and Su Xuyan.

Ling looked too much like her. Hence, Su Xuyan would definitely make a move on her if he saw her. This would become a problem as he would find out about her true identity as well. “Aaron,” Bai Rong called out in a panic, “quickly pull them back. Be quick! Don’t let them notice us.”

Aaron gave Bai Rong a puzzled look.

“It’s Gu Mingchen and Su Xuyan,” Bai Rong explained in a rush.

Aaron took the hint immediately. He grabbed the two girls by their arms and announced, “It’s time to head back and eat.”

Bai Rong trailed behind Aaron. She shot a backward glance at the room Gu Mingchen had been in. Why is he here with Su Xuyan?

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. Looking at Ling, who was still staring out of their door longingly, she spoke up, “Aaron, I have something to tell you.”

“Okay,” Aaron stood up, and Bai Rong followed him. Soon they were out of their room and had a hushed conversation in the empty room next door.

“Are you worried that they would discover your old identity through Ling if they ran into her?” Aaron verbalized Bai Rong’s concern.

Bai Rong nodded her head solemnly. “Su Xuyan must not find out.”

“After the paternity test tomorrow, Mr. Tang will go back to his own country with Ling. If Su Xuyan finds out about this before then, I will order them not to say anything about you,” Aaron said insightfully.

Bai Rong nodded.

She fervently hoped that they would not have the chance to run into one another.

When they went back to their room, Ling was not there.

“Where’s Ling?” asked Aaron.

“She said that she’s going to get the phone numbers of the two guys. You should have seen the way she went out in a hurry,” said Aaron’s grandmother helplessly.

Aaron and Bai Rong exchanged a frantic look and rushed out immediately.

Ling was already at the door of the private room where they had seen Gu Mingchen.

“Ling, don’t go in!” yelled Aaron.

Ling pushed open the door.

Bai Rong’s heart stopped and she stayed rooted to the spot. Oh god! I’m done for!

But then, Ling stepped out and asked Aaron, “Where are they? They were just here a moment ago.”

Bai Rong’s heart which was racing earlier started beating normally again.

“I’ll go look for them. They shouldn’t have gone far yet,” Ling said, making a move in the direction of the main entrance.

Aaron held onto her waist to stop her. “Girl,” he said, “please hold yourself back. This is A City and not Ustrana. They might already have girlfriends! There are a lot of handsome chaps around. You just met two and you’re getting their numbers already. At this rate, you’re going to get hundreds of numbers in a day. Isn’t that a bit too much?”

Ling scratched her head. “That’s true. I was overexcited. I should wait for a bit.”

Ling returned to their private room smiling cheekily.

“Do they know anything about Mr. Tang and me?” Bai Rong asked Aaron.

“No, they don’t. Mr. Tang is a very conservative person. He wouldn’t tell his children anything if he didn’t know for sure,” Aaron confirmed.

“Even if it were true, it would be better to not disclose it,” Bai Rong said with worry.

“You can discuss with Mr. Tang when the results are out. He will probably respect your wishes. He thinks that he owed it to your grandmother and your mother all these years.”

Bai Rong nodded and said, “We shall see how it goes after the results are out tomorrow.” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Previously, she had hoped that she was the granddaughter of Mr. Tang so that she could get closer to Gu Mingchen. However, if there was potential danger involved, she hoped for a negative result.
