You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 353

Chapter 353 Getting Jealous

Liu Yan was stumped at the sight of Wu Nian.

The latter cast an impassive gaze at the woman on the floor. “I’m sorry, you’ve got the wrong person. Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Are you not Bai Rong? I mean, you have to be…” The old woman tried to get up from the floor but to no avail. “My legs. My legs hurt.”

“Yan, call the police,” Wu Nian said icily.

“Aren’t we sending her to the hospital?” Liu Yan was bemused. This is not what Bai Rong would do.

Bai Rong would definitely send the old woman to the hospital first before calling the police.

“We are surrounded by trees, and I don’t think it’s necessary for her to cross the road right now. Even though she’s old, and her vision is not that clear but I believe that she’d be able to spot any cars coming her way. Besides, she’s calling me Bai Rong. Is she your friend? Do you think your friend would have recognized this old woman?” Wu Nian furrowed her brows as she talked to Liu Yan.

“You’re right. I think it’s a trap. Someone has arranged for her to appear right here.” Liu Yan cast wary looks at the surroundings and noticed something odd in the bushes. She edged closer to examine it and noticed a few people scurrying off.

“Nian, someone set this up,” Liu Yan said.

“Get in the car.” Wu Nian turned around and got into the car.

“So are we going to just leave this old woman here?” Liu Yan asked as she trailed behind Wu Nian.

“How should we deal with her anyway? I don’t want to look like a fool sending someone who’s trying to harm me to the hospital. And so what if I send her to the police station? She’s just going to be released after being remanded for two days. It’s a waste of time,” Wu Nian sneered.

“At least we’d get to know who’s behind her, right?” Liu Yan looked at the old woman who had since fled the scene. She doesn’t look like she’s hurt at all.

“Su Xuyan,” Wu Nian was positive that it was him.

Liu Yan felt a chill down her spine. “Has he started to suspect you?”

“I have the benefit of the doubt. Don’t worry about it.” Wu Nian said in a low voice.

Her phone started to ring. Noticing that it was Gu Yan, she picked it up right away.

“Nian.” Gu Yan’s childlike voice could be heard coming from the other end.

She took a look at the time. It was already eleven o’clock at night. There was a three-hour time difference between A City and Xyperia. It was only eight o’clock at Xyperia.

“Have you had your dinner? How do you find your classmates? Are you getting used to your school life already? Don’t kick your blankets at night, and don’t get into bed too late either.” Wu Nian’s face softened as she went.

“I’ve had dinner already, and I’ve been getting along with my classmates too. The teacher likes me. I like going to the school because they’re all very friendly. I don’t kick the blankets at night and I go to bed early too. I just miss you… I’m at grandma’s place. Daddy’s outstation right now, and I’ve heard that he’s only going to be back after some time. Do you think you can drop by to visit me, like secretly?”

Wu Nian’s lips curled into a smile. “Sure, I’ll make the necessary arrangements.”

“It’s just like those spies in the movies. I’m going to call our little project Nian Yan. I hope you know what it means and don’t forget me.” Gu Yan beamed with delight.

“Sure. I promise to never forget you. Promise,” Wu Nian assured him with a loving tone.

“Muacks, Nian. Grandma is asking me to go take a bath. I have to go right now. I’ll give you a call whenever I can.” Gu Yan hung up the phone merrily.

Gu Yan’s call was like a ray of sunshine, warding off the gloom looming over Wu Nian just moments ago, his voice like molten chocolate to her ears.

Liu Yan cast a glance over at Wu Nian and sighed.
