Chapter 449 We Must Leave Together

Bai Rong took a deep breath and returned Aaron’s call. “Hey, sorry! I headed out to sea yesterday, so there was no signal.”

“It’s okay! I thought so, too. Nian, I’m now at the airport. I’m going home with Grandma and the others,” Aaron responded softly.

Upon hearing that, Bai Rong felt apologetic while recalling the past.

Aaron had been taking care of her when she was in Ustrana. He was always there to lend a hand in times of need. She promised to treat him to some home-cooked dishes, but she failed to do so. “Will you come here again?”

“Of course! I haven’t transferred the company to you, and there are many things to be done. Oh, what I’m trying to say is that I have many businesses in A City. Besides, I have two great friends, you and Gu Mingchen. This country and city have a special meaning to me because of you guys, so I will definitely come again!” Aaron smiled and replied.

“Great! I’ll treat you to a meal when you come here again,” Bai Rong promised.

“No, thanks! I’m afraid that I’ll be reluctant to leave after having it. By the way, I’ve checked out of the room for you. Well, have fun!” Aaron said meaningfully and hung up without giving her a chance to speak.

“Look at you! How are you going to get a girlfriend?” Aaron’s grandmother grumbled after overhearing his conversation with Bai Rong.

“I’ll accompany you forever if I can’t get one,” Aaron replied with a gentle smile.

“Unfortunately, I can’t be with you forever, even if you wish to do so. I would probably live for another four or five years. You should get a girlfriend. Actually, I like Wu Nian very much, and she is different from other girls. She is pure-hearted like her grandmother!” Aaron’s grandmother said stubbornly.

Upon hearing that, a pleased smile flashed across Aaron’s face. “Well, she is in love with someone else. If I keep pestering her, she’ll be annoyed, and I’ll be tired too. I just want her to live happily, but I’ll go after her if Gu Mingchen can’t give her happiness. Alright, Grandma! It’s time to board the flight.”

Aaron put his arm around her shoulder, walking forward. Before entering the airport, he turned and glanced into the distance.

He hoped that Wu Nian would appear, even though he knew it was impossible. Still, he could not help but glance back. How ridiculous!

Bai Rong then returned Shen Yiyan’s call.

“Hey, where are you? You need to attend an interview if you want to join the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I’ve arranged it for you. Come to the congress building this afternoon. I’ll run through it with you,” Shen Yiyan said, trying to suppress his anger.

“Sorry! I’m not going to join the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the cabinet. Gu Mingchen and I have decided to leave here and we won’t come back anymore,” Bai Rong replied frankly.

He paused for a while and continued, “You guys are leaving? Are you sure he is willing to leave? Once he left, all these years of hard work would be in vain!”

“Shen Yiyan, we are different from you! Our dream is to live happily with our family. We don’t care much about other things,” she replied solemnly.

“Well, I’m sure that his parents won’t agree to it!”

“We will try to persuade them to leave with us. If they insist to stay here, then we will leave by ourselves. So, you don’t need to arrange for me! I’m sorry. Anyway, thank you!” Bai Rong said bluntly.

He then asked, thinking about something, “Where are you guys going to? Are you guys not coming back anymore?”

“We won’t come back again if his parents leave with us. Well, look at you! You’re the only one who knows how much sacrifices have been made to stabilize your political power and to be the commander- in-chief. For us, we just want to live with our loved ones. Alright, I’m going to hang up and get back to work.” Bai Rong said resolutely and ended the call.

Shen Yiyan was stunned by her words. After being in a daze for a while, he looked at the photos of Liu Yan and their baby on his phone.

How I wish I could be like Gu Mingchen and Bai Rong! They are willing to give up everything, family, glory, responsibility, and country in order to be together.

Well, I can’t do this, or else my family will be dead!

After finished talking to Shen Yiyan, Bai Rong returned Zhou Hailan’s call.

“Bai Rong, where are you now? Why didn’t you return my call? After I was admitted to the hospital, Su Xuyan never came to see me. What about the thing you promised me?” Zhou Hailan was boiling with anger.

However, Bai Rong remained silent. She felt like she did not want to care about anything— responsibilities, burdens, and promises. Nothing is more important than being together with Gu Mingchen. “I’m on vacation now. Let’s talk about it when I return.”

“What? Vacation? I’m now in the hospital, whereas you are on vacation! Bai Rong, please bear in mind that if you can’t do what you promised, I won’t let you go!” Zhou Hailan yelled over the phone.

Feeling annoyed, Bai Rong hung up the phone immediately.

As soon as she contacted the outside world, she felt overwhelmed by stress. It was pressing heavily on her shoulders. How I wish I could be cut off from the outside world and stay with Gu Mingchen on this deserted island forever!

Suddenly, the unknown caller called her before she returned the call.

Bai Rong answered, “Hello, who is this?”

“Bai Rong, I’m Xia He. Thank you for saving me. They have proven my innocence, and the country has compensated me. I’m now the director of the Southern Military Office in A City, having the official rank of Lieutenant Colonel!” Xia He replied with excitement in her voice.

“You deserved it!” Bai Rong was happy for her.

“When are you free to get together? Let me treat you to a meal. I have so much to talk to you!” Xia He was still excited.

“Sure! Let’s get together when I return from vacation!” Bai Rong then ended the call.

Lastly, she did not want to return Su Xuyan’s call or answer his call, so she turned off her phone and continued drying the quilt.

Meanwhile, Gu Mingchen was standing on the balcony on the second floor while staring at her deeply. An intense feeling of deep affection grew inside him, and a beaming smile flashed across his face.

I’m giving up my dream and going to live happily with her and the kids. It’s all worth it! Perhaps giving up is a good thing!

Bai Rong turned to look at him after she finished drying the quilt. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Gu Mingchen was drying the clothes on the balcony. He met her gaze, smiling affectionately at each other.

Bai Rong then went to the kitchen to prepare lunch. After cooking the chicken soup, she stir-fried the carrot julienne in the wok, followed by cucumber with egg. Later, she used the wok to cook the rice after cleaning it. The cooking of rice in a wok reminded her of the scorched rice.

Rice cookers are widely used in modern society. In fact, the rice cooked in the wok is more fragrant. A layer of hard, crunchy, and fragrant rice crust will form on the bottom of the wok if the rice is cooked for a little longer over direct heat from a flame. The scorched rice can be eaten with sugar as a snack or made into pieces and served in soup. It’s so delicious!

Thinking about the scorched rice, she purposely cooked the rice for a little longer and served the scorched rice in soup.

After that, Bai Rong went upstairs to call Gu Mingchen for lunch. When she reached the landing, he was heard talking on the phone. “I don’t care and I have to go! Kill me if you can, or else I must leave! Don’t you dare to touch her! If she dies, I’ll die together with her. Are you sure you want to do this? I’m already thirty-four and no longer fourteen. I have the right to choose the life I want to live!”
