You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 97
“Fine, I’ll follow you. But I will never admit a word to my crime, since none of you managed to get any
evidence of me murdering the governor. I will only admit my crime when you find the other murderers of
the genocide.” Tang Xiaojiu put down his knife.
Gu Mingchen approached Tang Xiaojiu with care.
At that moment, Chen Zhi noticed a sh and cried out in rm, “Beware, Chief! There’s a sniper!”
The first thought that rushed into Bai Rong’s mind was that someone also discovered Tang Xiaojiu and
wanted to kill him to block his mouth.
She couldn’t afford Tang Xiaojiu to die!
The girl jumped on the rock and threw herself in front of him.
Gu Mingchen turned around and covered Bai Rong protectively while dropping low to the floor.
Bang!
Bai Rong turned towards Gu Mingchen in fright.
“Are you ok?” Gu Mingchen asked worriedly.
The girl did not answer him immediately. She couldn’t help but stare at the man with scorching eyes.
In light of danger, the first reaction was always done out of impulse. And Gu Mingchen’s first reaction
was to save her!
Did that mean that she was always the most important person in his heart?
“I’m fine. What about Tang Xiaojiu?” Bai Rong turned to him.
The poor viger was shot on his forehead and was lying on the floor.
“Tang Xiaojiu!” Bai Rong ran towards the injured viger.
His face was covered in blood and his eyes remained wide opened. He was still breathing faintly.
Bai Rong was very worried as she pressed on Tang Xiaojiu’s wound to slow down the bleeding. “Send
him to the hospital now! Gu Mingchen, call the ambnce and prepare for intracranial surgery! Who
knows he can still be saved!”
“Chen Zhi, get the sharpshooter!” Gu Mingchen ordered sternly while calling the hospital.
The subordinate immediately chased in the direction of the sharpshooter.
Seeing that Tang Xiaojiu was about to die, Bai Rong’s eyes reddened in agitation. “Who are these
people? Why are they killing Tang Xiaojiu? What are their motives for doing so?”
Tang Xiaojiu finally closed his eyes.
“No, you can’t die!” Bai Rong pressed on his chest to conduct CPR.
However, Tang Xiaojiu had already passed away. He was hit on the forehead with a sniper, so it was
impossible for him to live.
“How can he just die like that!” Bai Rong was very upset by his sudden death.
Gu Mingchen came forward and helped her up.
The upset girl turned to the military chief. “Tang Xiaojiu is dead. That means there’s no one who could
prove your innocence now, right?”
“I’ve called the cops and they’ll be here soon. Bai Rong, we need to calm ourselves now.” Gu Mingchen
held her shoulders.
Bai Rong couldn’t bear to see a previously alive person to just die suddenly before her. She could
never be calm over this incident. After all, she was not a soldier with a tough mindset.
The girl could only clutch her head and close her eyes to stop herself from reacting further.
Tang Xiaojiu was just a stranger to her, yet she was already this upset by his passing. Imagined Gu
Mingchen having to see hisrades and even girlfriend dying before him, one after another.
She truly had a glimpse of what he felt at that tragic mission.
At this moment, Bai Rong knew that she couldn’t afford to be so badly affected by this incident. She
must remain rational and calm so that she wouldn’t hinder their mission.
The girl opened her eyes after forcefully regaining herposure and turned to Gu Mingchen. “Now
what should I do?”
“The cops will be here and they’ll record our testimonies. The lesser you know, the safer you are. Don’t
mention anything about the gold mine and treasure, in case the other party was alerted. Can you do
that?” Gu Mingchen replied somberly.
The messier the situation, the more he needed to be calm. Bai Rong understood his intentions and
nodded obediently.
“When they’re here, just tell them we suspect the deceased to be involved in Governor Cheng’s
murder. However, we haven’t managed to get anything from him when he was murdered by a
sharpshooter. As for other matters, let the cops settle it. We will investigate this case secretly. With my
current rank, the government wouldn’t dare to make guesses and interfere with my actions. As for the
media, I will ask them to not report this news first. We have to n our next moves carefully now.” Gu
Mingchen instructed.
“Alright.” Bai Rong answered, her hands still trembling.
Gu Mingchen noticed the blood stains on her hands and swiftly took a mineral water bottle to wash off
the blood.
Her hands were icy cold. Gu Mingchen enveloped her hands in his big palms to warm her up.
With gleaming eyes, Bai Rong turned to Gu Mingchen. The man smiled warmly in return, “I’m here; I
can settle everything. Don’t worry.”
Bai Rong was far from being calm. She had a lot to worry about. However, with him beside her, the
girl’s unrest gradually wore off and her worried heart was greatly assured by his presence.
Chen Zhi came back and reported with his head hanging low. “Chief, he fled.”
“Hmm.” Gu Mingchen hummed in reply.
At that time, the mayor approached the scene with the cops.
“Settle this.” Gu Mingchen ordered and dragged Bai Rong to the car hand in hand.
“We don’t need to stay put?” Bai Rong asked.
“Let Chen Zhi deal with them first. What I told you just now was just in case they insist on interrogating
you. Under normal conditions, they’ll never dare question me. Chen Zhi will know what to do.” Gu
Mingchen locked his gaze at the scene ahead of him.
Just like how Gu Mingchen had predicted, the cops dared not evene over to knock on their door.
They only moved Tang Xiaojiu’s body into the police car and left.
Chen Zhi opened the door of the driver’s seat and got in while reporting, “They are taking the body
back to the mortuary. They have agreed to not do anything and listen to our instructions for this case.”
“Ok, let’s go back first.” Gu Mingchen instructed.
When they were in the car, Gu Mingchen called Gu Tianhang, “The murderer of Governor Cheng was
found. He’s Tang Xiaojiu. However, he was shot to death by a sniper 10 minutes ago and we have no
idea who shot him.”
“What? How on earth did a snipere into the picture?” The father answered in a troubled tone.
“I don’t know; I think this case isn’t as simple as we initially thought. Although I’ve no idea who’s the
person behind this murder, I’m very sure that my whereabouts is exposed. Someone is secretly
following me.” Gu Mingchen replied heavily.
“Now that the murderer of Governor Cheng is dead, there’s no one else who can prove your innocence.
Su Zheng must be hell-bent on thinking you’re the one who murdered the Governor! This can’t go on;
you must marry Wanning no matter what and tone down this incident. Otherwise things will get tougher
to settle.” Gu Tianhang answered lividly.
“I did not do anything wrong, so I’m not afraid of being used for something I never did.” Gu
Mingchen rejected straightforwardly.
“But your mum and I didmit something wrong! I did make a call to Governor Cheng, and he indeed
sold that piece ofnd to Gu Group! Now Su Zheng has the testimony made by Governor Cheng as
well!” Gu Tianhang replied worriedly.
“It was possible that Governor Cheng was framing us too. Didn’t they fail to find Governor Cheng’s
recording? Plus, you didn’t snatch that piece ofnd; you bought it at the market price! Anyway, that’s
all I want to say. I need to driveter.” Gu Mingchen said in a final tone.

“Your mother and I promised you that we’ll only allow you to marry Bai Rong if you found the murderer.
Now that he’s dead, we will never allow you to marry that woman!” Gu Tianhang replied in a
determined tone.
“My marriage with Bai Rong doesn’t need your approval. You both have the right to object to it, but it
will never change my decision to marry her.” Gu Mingchen hung up the call.
Hearing his words, Bai Rong turned to him. She was touched by his unwavering decision just for the
sake of being with her, despite his parents’ objections.
Having a husband like him was the best thing she could ever ask for.
“I wonder… If we can find Xia He, can she prove that Tang Xiaojiu was the one who killed Governor
Cheng?” Bai Rong asked gently.
