You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 94


    Bai Rong did not wish to be a burden to the investigation process and wanted to make some


    contributions. Even though the men were not around, she continued searching the room for clues.


    When she didn’t find anything weird with the room, she searched the bedroom again. She crouched


    down to look underneath the bed but couldn’t see anything as it was too dark. Bai Rong shed the


    torchlight at the dark space and noticed that there was a floorboard under it.


    She knocked on it and it sounded hollow. Bai Rong felt excited. There’s a tunnel down there. Maybe


    there’s something in it.


    After prying the floorboard open, she noticed that there was adder leading downward. She didn’t


    dare to go down, for fear that there might be something down there that would harm her. The woman


    wanted to wait for Gu Mingchen and Chen Zhi toe back before going in there.


    After ten minutes or so, someone jumped out of the tunnel. It was a woman.


    The woman frowned at Bai Rong, then she looked at the tunnel again. “Get in.” She ordered.


    Bai Rong didn’t want to, but the woman took out a gun. “I don’t want to hurt you, but if this misfires,


    don’t me me.”


    Bai Rong took a look at the gun which was pointing at her and had no choice but to get in.


    The woman snatched Bai Rong’s phone and ced it in her bag. She then tied Bai Rong to a wooden


    pir and sealed her mouth with a ck tape. A momentter, the woman started packing her things


    up.


    Bai Rong saw that there were a few hundred thousand in cash in her bag, as well as some guns and


    simple clothing.


    After the woman slung her bag over her back, she looked at Bai Rong. “Judging from your clothing, the


    way you behave and the way you look, you are not a soldier.”


    Bai Rong looked at her quietly.


    The woman smiled. “When I came here four years ago, I met Tang Xiaojiu. He’s the vige head’s son,


    and the only survivor here. Coincidentally, on the day that murder happened, a little girl from another


    vige came here to visit her grandfather, so the murderers were not aware that there was a survivor in


    this vige.”


    Murder? Bai Rong frowned in shock. Since her mouth was sealed, she couldn’t speak.


    “Don’t worry. I’ll tell you everything I know. The vigers here are really simple people. They dug up a


    chest one day, and there were a thousand gold bars inside.”


    A thousand? Gu Mingchen said there were only a hundred.


    “The inte says the governor had a hundred of them. That wasn’t all he took. He must have given


    some away and wouldn’t have more than two hundred bars in his possession.” She continued.


    Bai Rong looked at the woman in disbelief.


    The woman smiled at her as if she had seen through Bai Rong. “You must be wondering about the


    whereabouts of the rest of the bars.”


    Bai Rong nodded.


    “I don’t know either. Tang Xiaojiu’s father went to see the mayor back then. He must have brought


    someone here. I can tell you that this genocide couldn’t have been done by Governor Cheng alone. In


    other words, he was not the only culprit. ording to the ratio of the gold that was split, there were at


    least five of them. And there must be those who were more powerful than Governor Cheng. Oh right,


    there was also a treasure map along with the chest. They said the gold bars were just a tiny fraction of


    the real treasure.”


    Bai Rong was even more shocked. But when she thought about it, that wasn’t impossible. The vige


    was surrounded by mountains, so news couldn’t travel as fast. Governor Cheng must have been


    ovee by greed when he saw the gold bars. Since a tiny fraction of it was already hundreds of


    millions, the real treasure would be worth much more.


    “Xiaojiu didn’t know about the genocide at first. He only found out when Governor Cheng’s scandal was


    exposed that the guy was one of the culprits.” The woman sighed, looking like she was hurt.


    Bai Rong saw that there was a look of pity in her eyes. She didn’t think someone who could empathize


    with another would be too bad.


    “OK, enough of that. Gu Mingchen is hunting me, so I can’t waste any more time. When he finds you,


    tell him I am innocent. I will get the evidence to prove it. Tell him to let me off the hook for now.” The


    woman then went out of the underground cer and closed the floorboard, leaving the cer in


    complete darkness.


    “Mmphh.” Bai Rong tried to make some sound. She trusted that Gu Mingchen would be able to find her.


    The moment the woman emerged from the cer, she bumped into Gu Mingchen. “Come with me, Xia


    He.” The man said sternly.


    Xia He smiled and mocked, “I’ll be dead if I follow you back. With the power you have now, sentencing


    me to treason is easy.”


    “Everyone must take responsibility for their crimes. Including you and I.” Gu Mingchen wasn’t about to


    show mercy.


    “You won’t believe me no matter what I say, will you?” Xia He gritted her teeth, anger ring in her


    eyes.


    “I only believe what I see and hear.” Gu Mingchen said with determination.


    “Is that so?” Xia He snorted, cruelty shing in her eyes. “Gu Mingchen, do you only like Han and not


    me?”


    “Yes. I have never led you on.” Gu Mingchen said conclusively.


    “You told me you won’t fall for anyone aside from Han. Is that also true?” Xia He asked sharply as


    she tossed the phone to him.


    Gu Mingchen panicked when he saw that it was Bai Rong’s phone. “What did you do to her?”


    “That girl looks clean and beautiful. And she looks like Han. Do you like her?” Xia He smiled, but


    there was mockery in it.


    Bai Rong looked ahead into the darkness but saw nothing. She could still hear what was happening up


    there and was also waiting for Gu Mingchen’s answer.


    From their conversation, she figured out that Gu Mingchen really liked that woman called Han. He


    was around five years older than her and it was normal for a man around his mid-twenties to have


    dated someone before.


    She used to love Su Xuyan too, but not anymore. It wasn’t the case for Gu Mingchen though. It was not


    that he had stopped loving the woman, but that the woman was dead.

    Bai Rong did not mind any of that as it was already in the past and hers was even worse than his.


    Since she wasn’t perfect, she couldn’t expect that of someone else. It did not matter to Bai Rong how


    he treated other women before her. All she wanted was for him to treat her well now. She wanted to be


    the only one he loved.


    “You have killed Han, Xia He. Don’t drag anyone else into this.” Gu Mingchen said sternly. He red


    at Xia He sharply. If looks could kill, the woman would have been dead by now.


    Bai Rong’s heart sank. Is he unwilling to admit that he loves me? Or is he worried that the woman


    called Xia He would hurt me? No, I shouldn’t overthink.
