You Owe Me, My Love

You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 146

Gu Mingchen called out to her and she could not refuse him.

Psychology was about figuring out one’s thoughts through one’s words, facial expressions, body language as well as mannerisms.

That would work on ordinary people, but some were very good at concealing their true emotions and body language to the point that they could not be read accurately.

That was exactly the kind of person Gu Mingchen was.

He used to be hot-blooded, irrational and impulsive three years ago, but had now matured and turned into someone cold, assertive and dominant.

In other words, he had become like a true king.

Bai Rong followed Gu Mingchen as they walked towards the study room on the first floor.

“Close the door.” Gu Mingchen said as he sat on the sofa and sent a text on his phone.

He then placed his phone on the coffee table and Bai Rong felt even more stressed as she sat in front of him across the table.

She made eye contact with the man as he stared at her, and they both sat there in silence.

Bai Rong kept quiet and maintained an expressionless face as she stared back at him.

She couldn’t back down as whoever broke eye contact and looked away would seem guilty now.

They ended up staring at each other for ten minutes, and it was so silent that they could hear each other breathing.

Gu Mingchen smirked, “Don’t you have anything to say, Ms. Bai?”

“Chief Gu, you are a very calm and collected person who understands yourself very well. I have no direct relationship of interest with you, nor are you the investigator of my case this time. If I make a mistake in my analysis of you, you would think that I am a hoax and look at me scornfully; If my analysis is correct and exposes the secrets that you have kept hidden deep inside, you would feel uncomfortable and silence me because you find me too dangerous to let live. So, I think it’s better for me to stay silent. What do you think, Chief Gu?” Bai Rong asked.

“You sure are being very cautious. No matter what you say, I will forgive you and will not go after you.” Gu Mingchen said as he leaned back lazily against the sofa.

His posture indicated that he was very relaxed and was indeed just having a harmless and casual chat with her.

However, just because he was harmless did not mean she had to tell him everything.

Bai Rong smiled slightly, “Aren’t you busy today, Chief? Why do you have so much time to do all these childish things?” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

The casual expression on his face vanished as Gu Mingchen shot her a stern look and sat up straight while keeping his gaze focused on her.

“Start talking now. If you make a mistake, the fact that you have slandered my uncle and aunt as well as caused my cousin psychological trauma alone is enough to get you locked up in jail forever.” Gu Mingchen said in a commanding tone that meant he wouldn’t take no for an answer.

Bai Rong noticed the change in his tone and realized that he wasn’t joking, so she began her analysis, “There is a very dark spot in your heart.”

Gu Mingchen snorted but his expression remained unchanged, so it was difficult to tell what he was really thinking.

“Keep going!” Gu Mingchen said.

“There is a part of your memory that is lost.” Bai Rong lowered her gaze as she didn’t want him to read her.

“This memory makes you feel conflicted and lost. You have been searching for an answer these past few years, but realized that there are people stopping you from doing so. Those people are your family. Therefore, you have been hurt before. As the pain got worse, you became numb to it.” Bai Rong continued.

“Do you know why I had you analyze me?” Gu Mingchen stared at her intensely.

Bai Rong had a bad feeling about it.

Could he actually want me to treat him?

She stared at Gu Mingchen in shock and he laughed as he said, “I heard that you are a genius in the field of psychology and are among the best in hypnosis. Having heard your analysis, it seems like the rumors about your capabilities are indeed right. You guessed it correctly. I want you to treat me and help me regain my lost memories.”

Bai Rong teared up a little and said without hesitation, “I refuse.”

Gu Mingchen got up and pressed both his arms against the sofa on each of her sides as he stared closely at her, suffocating her with the intensity of his presence.

“I’m afraid you cannot refuse.” Gu Mingchen said tyrannically.

Bai Rong looked at him in confusion.

Although Gu Mingchen still seemed as cold as he used to before, it felt like he was a different person now.

Back then, he might have seemed cold on the outside, but he was actually warm and soft on the inside. Now, even his breath on her face felt cold.

“Why can’t I refuse?” Bai Rong asked.

Gu Mingchen lifted her chin and leaned in closer, “You may feel free to try if you don’t believe me.”

Bai Rong understood it clearly now. He was a candidate for commander-in-chief and could easily have her dead without anyone knowing.

So, she decided to not resist him, “I’ll try, but I must remind you, chief. Those who don’t want you to regain your memories the most are your parents. I’m afraid there is nothing I can do if they wish to stop me.”

“I’ll have someone come pick you up every week and I won’t contact you directly either. They won’t find out.” Gu Mingchen promised as he stood up, “I’ll send you home now.”

“There’s no need for that. My colleague will send me home.” Bai Rong refused his offer.

“They left long ago. It’s hard to get a cab in this heavy rain here. Do you wish to spend the night here?” Gu Mingchen asked.

Bai Rong stood up and nodded, “In that case, thank you, Chief.”

The rain splattered heavily on the car, while Bai Rong looked out the window.

She seemed calm, but was actually feeling restless like the rain outside.

The driver stopped the car suddenly.

“What’s wrong?” Gu Mingchen asked.

“There’s a traffic jam up ahead, sir. A lot of cars are turning around as the water levels are too high.” Lieutenant Song reported.

“Head over to Sky Resort. Also, get someone to solve this problem immediately.” Gu Mingchen ordered.

“Yes, sir.”

Bai Rong frowned, “Chief, you can drop me off here. I’ll hail a taxi.”

“With such heavy rain out there and the flooded roads ahead, there won’t be a single taxi around here. Not even a bus would make it over here, judging by the condition of the traffic jam.” Gu Mingchen said without looking at her.

Bai Rong was getting annoyed as she hated others making decisions on her behalf, “I can walk back myself.”

“Are you not afraid of being washed away by the current?” Gu Mingchen said coldly.

“I’m not that weak.”

Gu Mingchen glared at her, “You sure talk a lot of crap. I said we’re going to Sky Resort and that’s exactly where we’re going. It’s not like I’m going to eat you up or anything, so why are you so afraid? Once the road is cleared, I’ll have someone send you home.”

Bai Rong was left speechless.
