You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 92
Gu Mingchen drove for safety purposes. Aside from Bai Rong, he only brought a follower called Chen
Zhi.
Tangqian Vige was farther than he had anticipated. Gu Mingchen didn’t ask Bai Rong to drive. The
man only asked her to sleep in the backseat.
After switching shifts with Chen Zhi and driving for half a day, they finally reached the mountain area
and it was no longer possible for them to continue travelling by car.
The GPS signal was lost. Even their phones had lost theirwork signals too.
Gu Mingchen stopped the car and looked at the mountain range around them. He frowned. “I thought
they cleared the road. Was the governor reporting fake results?” Gu Mingchen was angered, while
Chen Zhi hung his head low and said nothing.
Bai Rong came out and went up to Gu Mingchen. She held his hand and calmed him down, “It’s
commonce. When the hospital organized a group to provide free checkups for the people in the
slumsst year, they said the roads are there. But when we got there, not only were there no roads, we
didn’t even have electricity.”
Gu Mingchen calmed down slightly after Bai Rong spoke. He didn’t want to get worked up before her,
so he said, “We are the military. Can’t interfere with the administration.”
“We are humans after all. Not gods.” Bai Rong smiled.
Gu Mingchen looked at her gently before telling Chen Zhi, “Tangqian Vige is under Zhenghai Town’s
jurisdiction. You should go to town and get a guide. We’ll catch up in a bit.”
“Yes.” Chen Zhi drove back to the town.
“May I suggest something? Since it’s gettingte, why don’t we stay in town for the day? We can go
around and get some news from the locals. We may even get a clue.” Bai Rong said.
“Sure.”
They came back to town after half an hour’s drive. Gu Mingchen and Bai Rong stayed in one room
using fake identification. On the other hand, Chen Zhi stayed in a room by himself.
They went to the small restaurant beside the hotel to have a meal after settling down. Thedy boss
there kept smiling at them warmly.
“Can I ask you something about Tangqian Vige, ma’am?” Bai Rong asked gently.
Thedy boss’ smile froze at the mention of Tangqian Vige. She nced outside before lowering her
voice, “You sure are not a local, miss. We don’t talk about that thing easily here.”
“Why?” Bai Rong was perplexed.
“Since the disappearance of all 108 vigers five years ago, that ce has be haunted. Someone
even saw ghosts flying around there. It’s terrifying.”
Gu Mingchen looked at thedy boss calmly. He didn’t believe in ghosts. “Do you know why they
disappeared?” He asked.
“They said the vigers were consumed by ghosts. Since then, none of the locals dares go into that
ce.” Thedy boss shivered. She didn’t want to talk about this anymore, so the woman went back to
the kitchen.
“Chen Zhi.” Gu Mingchen called.
Chen Zhi looked at him and listened closely.
“Go to the local government tomorrow and check the resident record of Tangqian Vige. See if there’s
anyone studying or working in a different ce.” Gu Mingchen said.
“Yes.”
“I think this whole thing reeks of suspicion. What do you think?” Gu Mingchen looked at Bai Rong.
“Ghosts are just psychological offshoots. I think there are still people there in the vige, so someone
thought they met a ghost. I suggest we do not get a guide this time. Just get a map and go there on our
own.” Bai Rong suggested.
“Alright, cancel the n tomorrow, Chen Zhi. Do it tonight, but don’t let anyone see you. Get a map
too.” Gu Mingchen made another order.
“Yes, sir.”
Gu Mingchen and Bai Rong went around for a stroll after their meal. They were going to get some fruits
and some info.
Zhenghai Town’s roads were in disrepair. Many ces needed to be refurbished, but none took the job.
All the shops here closed their doors early. The only ces that were open were those that sold
supper.
Not even the town had streemps, let alone the vige.
Bai Rong noticed a fruit shop across from them restocking, so she quickly went ahead. However, the
woman stepped into a pit and almost fell. Gu Mingchen quickly held her waist and pulled her to him.
“Did you sprain your ankle?” He asked worriedly.

“I didn’t. When was thest time they repaired the road here?” Bai Rong asked.
“Not sure. I’ll get someone to check.”
“Let’s ask the locals.” Bai Rong took Gu Mingchen to the fruit stall.
Gu Mingchen’s eyes dimmed, but he followed Bai Rong to the stall. The woman bought a lot of fruits
from the stall owner, then she asked, seemingly casual, “When was thest time the roads here got
repaired, sir?”
“Huh? Ten years ago, I think.” The owner replied.
“Ten years ago? The road is in disrepair. If it wasn’t a jerry-built project, then it must have been caused
by heavy trucks frequently passing by, right?” Bai Rong peeled a lime and had a slice, then peeled
another in half before giving it to Gu Mingchen.
She gave him a weird look, while the man frowned. He hated limes since they were sour. However,
since this was given by her, he took a slice and popped it in his mouth. After chewing it once, he gulped
it down.
Even though he only chewed once, it was sour enough to torture him. The man stopped eating and
held the lime in his hand.
Bai Rong looked at him again, this time with a smile. He had an urge to kiss her. She gave me
something sour on purpose. Gu Mingchen wanted to do it, but he held back his desire.
The stall owner exined, “The town next door has a cement factory, so their trucks would pass by
asionally.”
“Oh, right. I heard that the eerie Tangqian Vige is in this town.” Bai Rong said.
The stall owner’s expression darkened. “That ce is haunted. People disappeared without a trace
there. It’s a scary ce.”
“There’s been super-hot news floating aroundtely, stating that the vigers killed themselves
because they got infected by something. The previous mayor buried them, and someone even gave
him gold for it.” Bai Rong smiled.
“I call bull. That’s nonsense. None of us believe it. I’ll tell you this. The official record was that all
vigersmitted suicide, and the ce was sealed off. Actually…” The owner looked around him
before continuing, “I have a friend who lives in that vige. Not only is he not dead, the guy’s still alive
until this day.”
Gu Mingchen and Bai Rong looked at one another. “Can you tell me where your friend lives?” Bai Rong
asked.
The owner looked at them both in rm. “I don’t think that’s too nice.”
Gu Mingchen handed him a one thousand note and the owner scribbled down his friend’s address
happily.
Bai Rong was speechless.
As the night went on, the couple found themselves wide awake. While Bai Rong tossed and turned
around thinking about the case, Gu Mingchen pinned her down suddenly.
“What is it?” Bai Rong asked huskily.
“Wanna do it?” Gu Mingchen kissed her.
“Wear a condom.” Bai Rong took the box from the bedside cab.
But Gu Mingchen didn’t like condoms. He took the box from her and tossed it on the cab.
