You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 115


    After confirming that the woman in the tub was indeed Bai Rong, Gu Mingchen’s eyes clouded with


    deep yearning as the mist from the bath blurred his features.


    How long had it been since hest saw her?


    It had been 65 days.


    So many days had passed without her. They had first met in summer, but who would’ve thought that


    their next meeting would be in the middle of autumn.


    “How have you been?” Gu Mingchen’s hoarse voice squeezed through his tight throat.


    Bai Rong unconsciously nced at his broken pinky and her eyes moistened further.


    She couldn’t hide the waves of emotions in front of him, hence she turned away from the man and


    replied coldly, “I don’t think this is the right time to reminisce about the old days. Don’t fall into the trap


    of others.”


    “I’m already inside the trap. There’s no escaping now.” Gu Mingchen sat beside the tub, his gaze


    lingering on the girl with no intention to leave. “You’re skinnier now.”


    “I thought skinny beauty is the trend now?”


    “I think you look better with more flesh.” Gu Mingchen replied.


    Bai Rong lowered her head in embarrassment. Chatting while being naked with him was extremely


    awkward for her.


    For their current rtionship, they were not even supposed to chat with each other, let alone doing so


    while being naked.


    “I’ming out.” Bai Rong replied, her eyes flickered around embarrassingly.


    “I’ll wait outside.” Gu Mingchen turned to leave.


    As he left, the girl could smell the strong odor of liquor on him.


    She had thought that she would be the only upant of this room, hence she did not bring in her new


    clothes after removing her worn ones outside the bathroom.


    The girl stood up to reach for the towel when Gu Mingchen entered the bathroom once again with her


    luggage. His deep-set eyes lingered broodingly at the embarrassing view.


    The poor girl froze mid motion at his sudden intrusion.


    Gu Mingchen was the first one to regain hisposure and averted his eyes.


    Despite being taken aback by the embarrassing encounter, Bai Rong did not lose her calmness and did


    not cry out in shock.


    After all, this man had already seen everything of her.


    Bai Rong swiftly covered herself with a towel.


    With his eyes still away from her, Gu Mingchen spoke while cing her luggage inside the bathroom. “I


    realized you did not take your clothes in with you. Sorry for the intrusion.”


    “Mmm.” Bai Rong hummed in reply while Gu Mingchen closed the door for her.


    By the time she was out, Gu Mingchen was standing beside therge window. The window portrayed


    his handsome reflection and his raw feelings of sorrow within his eyes.


    At the same time, the man saw her through the reflection on the window. However, by the time he


    turned around, the raw sadness previously shown in his eyes were now well hidden.


    “I just called the reception. Turned out that this room was booked by the prosecutor’s office but was not


    registered. It so happened that the receptionist was changed to someone else who didn’t know about


    that arrangement, so they’re changing me to room 1827, which is just beside yours.” Gu Mingchen


    exined.


    “Ok.” Bai Rong lowered her eyelids, looking like a quiet and distant goddess.


    The man’s dark eyes continued to stare at her, his Adam’s apple moving as he gulped bitterly. “How on


    earth did you end up as a prosecutor? Did something happen to you when you were a doctor?”


    Bai Rong lifted her head andnded her eyes on his dashing face before replying philosophically, “I just


    need a change. A change from my work, a change from my mood, a change for a new environment


    and a change for a different life.”


    “Did Xing Bachuan treat you well?” Gu Mingchen asked worriedly. He had so much to say to her, but


    now all of them were stuck in his throat.


    “Yea, he’s nice to me. It’s all thanks to him that I got to be a prosecutor and dispatched here for work


    while enjoying the luxurious stay and boot-licking of others.” Bai Rong rified shortly, her lips curling


    slightly upwards.


    She just didn’t want him to be worried for her.


    “Are you here to investigate Lu Liangcheng?” Gu Mingchen asked straightforwardly.


    “Yes.” Bai Rong admitted directly. “I think he was one of the murderers behind the genocide.”


    “Do you know why you get to stay in such a luxurious room?”


    “They’re trying to frame me. I know that I’vended myself in a rather difficult situation.” Bai Rong


    guessed. The woman proceeded to pour a cup of water. She then noticed some honey on the table and


    added some into the drink before passing to Gu Mingchen.


    “You’ve consumed liquor. Don’t take tea now; it’s bad for your health. Some honey in in water will


    ease your headache.” Bai Rong exined.


    The man took the cup from her and took a sip. Then, he stared quietly at the beautiful girl before


    replying in a heavy tone, “Since you know it’s a difficult situation, then how are you going to save


    yourself out of it? I think this is too dangerous for you. I can arrange to let you stay overseas for further


    studies ande back 2 yearster. By that time, I should’ve settled everything.”


    “Settle what thing?” Bai Rong poured herself another cup of water and took a mouthful.


    Two yearster, she would still be an ordinary doctor. She didn’t think Gu Mingchen’s family would be


    able to ept her.


    At that time, there would be moredies like Su Wanning who would be forced onto him by his family.


    “You know what I meant.” Gu Mingchen stared into her with his scorching gaze.


    However, Bai Rong avoided his gaze. Her eyes were cool and void of emotions, but her tone was firm.


    “I am clearer with the type of life I want. Chief Gu, you’re overstepping your boundaries.”


    “Am I no longer part of your ns in life?” Gu Mingchen asked deeply.


    Bai Rong felt her heart tightened as his sorrowful words pricked her.


    The woman avoided his question and walked to the main door. Then, she opened it and said resolutely,


    “I’m going to sleep. Please don’t feed the suspicions of others. I’ve paid the price with my pinky. I


    cannot afford to bear more serious consequences arising from such suspicions.”


    Gu Mingchen furrowed his brows and walked out of her room. He might look calm on the outside, but


    his fists were tightly clenched as he left the room.


    Bai Rong closed the door with mixed feelings.


    The man had just asked her to let go of everything and would arrange for her to study overseas. He


    had just asked her to wait for him for two years.


    She could understand the underlying meaning behind his words.


    Touched by his words, Bai Rong smiled in content, yet tears began to trickle down her face.


    “Gu Mingchen, two years is nothing for me. Even if you ask me to wait for 20 years, I’ll wait for you


    willingly.”


    Throughout the night, the woman spent her time studying the history of Jin Yang City.


    Turned out that Jinyang City was an ancient city that had been the capital to many royal monarchs of


    ancient times. Underneath the ancient city hid generations of ancient history unknown to the public. In


    layman terms, the ground beneath the city was buried with countless relics of the ancient times.


    The city was a well-known tourism spot famous for its ancient buildings and rich history. The whole


    ce exuded an ancient vibe that had drawn tourists from many ces.


    Under the help of the archaeologists, historians and geologists, Jinyang City was now officially


    dered as the cultural heritage site of the country. Under thew, construction and development were


    not allowed within the area of a cultural heritage site.


    But outside of it, development of economic activities was definitely allowed.


    Bai Rong had a hunch that things were not as simple as that.


    After more in-depth research, she realized that this hotel she resided in belonged to the Jinyang City


    Municipal Government.


    They were just a mere Municipal Government, yet they had the money to let government officials stay


    in such a luxurious hotel for free. Imagined the financial expenditure needed for this purpose!


    Could this ce be the culprits’ base then?


    If that was the case, then this time she really ran herself into trouble. The woman had to carefully n


    her next move now.


    The mere thought brought a headache to Bai Rong and she decided to go out for a walk in the outdoor


    garden.


    The moon was hanging full and bright in the night sky. The night was quite chilly, as the cold breeze


    blew past her clothes and kissed her skin, which greatly cleared her muddled mind.


    From the side of her vision, something suddenly moved.

    The girl turned to her right at the sudden movement.


    Seemingly just awake, a man struggled to pull himself up the ground. His body was covered in blood


    and his chest was stabbed with a knife as he tried to walk towards her. “Save me!”


    Bai Rong shrieked out of shock, thinking it might be a prank.


    The man copsed right in front of her, his hands on the girl’s feet.


    The doctor knelt and checked for his breath; it was now gone.


    Upon hearing her shrieks, Gu Mingchen rushed towards the outdoor garden. Forgetting he was high up


    on the 18th floor, the man just climbed across the balcony to her side without considering how


    dangerous it was.


    He would be dead if he were to lose his footing!


    However, the man only had eyes for Bai Rong as he pulled the shivering girl into a tight embrace…
