You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 49
“That’s not enough to prove that she likes me right? Or maybe she just thinks she owes me a book.” Gu Mingchen self-deprecated.
As he recalled the scene of Bai Rong returning the money to him, his eyes turned cold as ice.
“She likes you. I’m sure of that. She is always staring into space while holding your Russian book. She rejected you because she and Su Xuyan came to an agreement that after living apart for one month, they will get a divorce. She doesn’t want to risk him changing his mind, so she decides to avoid you for a while.” Liu Yan quickly explained.
Gu Mingchen’s brows furrowed. He appeared to be deep in thought.
Liu Yan did not know what his silence meant and carried on saying, “You should take more initiative. Rong is a very passive person. Maybe you could use some force.”
Gu Mingchen was speechless.
Would force work? She’d probably hate me for life if I really do that.
“Let me tell you a secret. Bai Rong and her husband had not slept together even once. You know, as a woman, she also has needs. If you can make her feel good, she will definitely be committed to you.” Liu Yan said, feeling apologetic towards Bai Rong.
If her friend found out about her conversation with Gu Mingchen, she would probably sever all ties with her.
“Are you sure?” Gu Mingchen was not convinced.
“I have a blind date event tomorrow and Rong is accompanying me there. It is going to be held in the form of a masquerade party and Rong will be spotting a new hairstyle. I’ll take a picture and send it to
you, and I’ll also send you the address of the event. You will be there right?” Liu Yan extended the invitation to him.
As Gu Mingchen did not say anything, Liu Yan was not confident that he would go. “I’ll just text you the address.” She said.
Then, Liu Yan hung up and texted Gu Mingchen the address, but he did not reply.
Liu Yan set off to the hair salon.
She had requested for the director of the salon to personally serve Bai Rong.
Bai Rong had a small face and fair skin, but she was not very particular with grooming. She never had any treatment done to her hair before, including coloring and perming.
The director had cut Bai Rong’s hair into a bob that was now spotting a new brown color. She had also gotten a keratin treatment.
Bai Rong’s new hairstyle framed her face well and made it look even smaller. Her complexion also looked more flattering against her new hair color. That, together with her big eyes and full-looking face, added to Bai Rong’s allure. It was a perfect look for her.
Bai Rong was already a natural beauty. And now, she looked stunning.
“Su Xuyan has really poor taste. He already has such a big beauty at home, but he continues fooling around.” As Liu Yan spoke, she snapped a picture of Bai Rong and sent it to Gu Mingchen.
“Can we don’t talk about him?” Bai Rong stood up.
“Of course. That jerk can scram. We have better options.” The corners of Liu Yan’s mouth raised into a sly smile.
Will the chief be there tomorrow? Liu Yan wondered.
The next morning, Liu Yan was feeling very excited as she put on makeup for Bai Rong.
Bai Rong was dumbfounded. “Yan, I’m only accompanying you there. I’m not the star of the night. You should be putting on makeup for yourself, not me.”
“That goes without saying.” Liu Yan said, as she applied a smudge-proof liquid lipstick on Bai Rong. “Of course I will be doing it for myself. But you will be going with me, so you have to look good too, otherwise it will reflect badly on me. So, be good. Come to my place to pick an outfit later.”
“OK.” Bai Rong did not want to be a drag on her friend too.
One of the outfits Liu Yan picked for Bai Rong was a white silk bell sleeve dress matched with a black tube top.
Bai Rong’s well-endowed curves could vaguely be seen through the thin material of the dress.
She had always dressed conservatively, and that did not do justice to her good figure.
Liu Yan was fervently hoping that the chief would be deeply mesmerized by Bai Rong, and…
She grew increasingly excited just by thinking about that and was really looking forward to the party.
Bai Rong saw the three sets of outfits Liu Yan had picked out for her and herself each plus a set of bikini swimsuits.
“Why do we need to bring so many clothes?” Bai Rong asked in shock.
“That place is quite far and it’s by the beach. The plan is to be there for two days and we will be staying there tonight. We can never go wrong with extra clothes anyway. We can just leave it in the car.” Liu Yan explained.
“Why would your blind date take two days?” Bai Rong asked.
Liu Yan shrugged. “It’s decided by my dad. I guess he really wants me to find someone there. He’s getting old and it’s natural for him to get a little anxious. I am just trying to make him happy. Oh, I forgot to tell you. The woman who gave me the recording has disappeared.”
“Maybe she’s afraid of offending Su Xuyan. It doesn’t really matter to me. Anyway, Su Xuyan and I are already living separately now. We will be officially divorced one month later.” Bai Rong said.
“Then you should also get to know some guys tonight. It’s always good to have options.” Liu Yan urged her cheekily.
“Better not. Let’s go.” Bai Rong helped to carry the suitcase to the car.
The event venue was indeed quite far away.
Liu Yan drove for three hours straight before they finally reached.
But it was worth it. The place was gorgeous. It was a private villa facing the sea, and right in front of the villa was a beach.
Sunshades and deck chairs lined up on the sand. On the beach were also palapas and women clothed in bikinis wearing masquerade masks. It was an exotic view indeed.
There were all kinds of luxury cars parked outside the villa.
When Bai Rong got off the car, the ocean breeze kissed her face and her hair swayed gently in the wind.
It was refreshing to be there. The atmosphere would put anyone in a carefree and relaxed state.
Liu Yan glanced towards the beach. She wasn’t able to recognize Gu Mingchen as everyone was wearing masks.
Did he come? Liu Yan thought to herself. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Liu Yan pulled Bai Rong towards the beach when they were stopped by two expressionless bodyguards. “Young Master Shen had instructed that everyone needs to be registered upon arrival. It’s for room arrangement purposes.”
“OK. We’ll do that.” They followed one of the bodyguards into the villa for Liu Yan to register.
Before they entered the villa, they went into a small room that had six big-sized bodyguards in it.
Liu Yan signed her name in the registration book.
A bodyguard confirmed her name against the guests’ list before giving her the room access card and number tag. They were only allowed entry into the villa after that.
That got Liu Yan worried. If everyone who comes here needs to sign their real name, would Gu Mingchen be able to get in?
Liu Yan let out a sigh. “Let’s see the room.” She said.
When the bodyguard opened the room door, the curtains were all drawn down. It was a little dark inside.
The lounge area had been purposefully decorated like a bar, completed with a bar counter, neon lights, disco ball, stage, sound system, and alcohol, etc. Men and women were already hanging out in the room.
After Bai Rong and Liu Yan put down their luggage, they went back to the room.
They chose a corner to sit down and Bai Rong looked towards the stage.
A woman in a mask was singing on the stage. She had a number tag on her with a number five on it.
She had a melodious voice and sang very well. A crowd had already gathered to hear her sing.
“Why are there so many people at this blind date event? Are you sure we are at the right place? It feels more like a talent show to me.” Bai Rong was dubious.
Liu Yan shrugged and said, “Beats me. My dad arranged it. Maybe all the bachelors and bachelorettes from the circle are here. It’s an eye opener for us. There’s nothing for us to lose anyway.”
“Yeah.” Bai Rong said indifferently.
Just then, the bodyguards opened the door.
A man wearing a wolf masquerade mask entered.
He had an imposing presence; His broad shoulders and good build were perfectly showcased in a hand-tailored Italian suit.
His eagle eyes scanned across the room and landed on Bai Rong. There was an unfathomable glint in his eyes, as though a hibernating beast was ready to awaken.
