You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 121

    You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 121


    Bai Rong’s heart soared. “What are you doing here?”


    “Just passing by. I need to return to the neighboring city to handle a couple of things.” Gu Mingchen


    exined.


    No wonder Zhou Min had gone shopping on her own and even rejected anypany. She must have


    known that Gu Mingchen wasing.


    “I have made significant progress and have already started making my move on the people behind the


    antiques scheme. One step at a time, I will soon be able to apprehend those at Xingzheng Construction


    Company and they will eventually lead me to Lu Liangcheng. Once I catch him, I might even be able to


    solve the case of the vige massacre.”


    “Zhou Min has reported to me. I think that even if someone uses Lu Liangcheng, he might still not


    confess to the massacre. It is a choice between jail and the death sentence and he will not be so stupid


    as to willingly choose thetter by confessing. Unless we are able to find those gold bars.” Gu


    Mingchen said logically.


    “Hopefully we are able to find the evidence soon and put him behind bars. Have you eaten yet?” Bai


    Rong asked worriedly.


    Gu Mingchen tapped her nose, saying, “I wanted to see you, but I must leave soon.”


    Disappointment crushed Bai Rong like a boulder.


    Even if he had not eaten, he was still unable to eat with her.


    “You don’t have to specially drop by next time if you are in such a rush. I understand that you are busy.”


    Gu Mingchen smiled.


    It took him four hours to rush back, and he would only be able to stay with her for an hour or so. Yet, he


    did so happily. She was worth it.


    “You have lost weight, please eat more. Some things cannot be rushed. Take your time. Now that we


    are sure there’s a problem with Jinyang City, the calmer you are, the more frantic those wrongdoers will


    be.” Gu Mingchen advised rationally.


    “I know I am too anxious.”


    “I came here bearing good news as well. It is unexpected yet reasonable.” Gu Mingchen said,


    chuckling.


    “What good news?”


    “Do you remember how I got a bad feeling about the security chief?” Gu Mingchen reminded her.

    “Yes, I do. He was really suspicious and seemed to be in cahoots with the security captain.” Bai Rong


    nodded in agreement.


    Gu Mingchen handed her a photo which depicted the security chief receiving a briefcase full of money


    from a man wearing sunsses.


    “Who is that man and why is he giving money to the chief?” Bai Rong asked, puzzled.


    “He is the manager of Xingzheng Construction Company.” Gu Mingchen revealed.


    Bai Rong was shocked at the revtion. “Lu Liangcheng must have felt guilty so he sent Xingzheng


    Construction Company’s manager to get rid of me, but the manager passed the task to the security


    chief instead and got him to frame me. But why did they not just kill me directly?”


    “They would not dare to kill you without knowing who you worked for. Besides, your father being Xing


    Bachuan must have made them wary. They tried to frame you not only to impede your investigation but


    also to find out who your supporter is by seeing who came to your rescue.” Gu Mingchen patientlyid


    out the facts.


    “They sure are meticulous. However, this picture alone is not enough to prove the connection to the


    curator’s murder or their attempt to frame me.” Bai Rong frowned in frustration.


    “Remember what the security chief said to the security captain back then? There were warning signs


    between the lines so I sent someone to protect the security captain’s wife. Just as I suspected,


    someone tried to kidnap her. Those people are now in custody. When they were shown this photo, they


    admitted that they had been sent by the security chief. When the couple was reunited today, the


    security captain also admitted to having been instigated by the security chief with the promise of two


    thousand as a reward.” Gu Mingchen borated.


    “This should be enough to apprehend the security chief. As long as he testifies against the manager at


    Xingzheng Construction Company as the one behind the incident, this case should be solved soon!”


    Bai Rong eximed excitedly.


    She never expected that he had done so much for her in a mere five days.


    “Now is not the right time yet. You have to be patient and wait till we find evidence linking Xingzheng


    Construction Company to Lu Liangcheng. Otherwise, it would be hard to prove Lu Liangcheng’s


    involvement.”


    Bai Rong nodded. “Since Lu Liangcheng has been engaged in such illegal activities, his finances would


    be shady. As long as we find out where he’s been hiding the money or antiques, we should be able to


    get him.”


    “My people have been shadowing him for a few days but he is tremendously cautious. He never


    attends business gatherings nor partakes in any vices so it is hard to find any weaknesses.”


    “No.” Bai Rong cut Gu Mingchen off, an idea hitting her like a meteorite. “There is something he’s


    interested in and it’s neither treasures nor antiques. Do you remember that treasure map from before? I


    think we can use it to lure him out.”


    “Smart girl. I will arrange for my men to work on that and update you within a week.”


    Bai Rong pressed her lips together as she fell silent.


    “What’s wrong?” Gu Mingchen asked as he pulled her into his arms.


    “I was just thinking about how I wanted to be a prosecutor so that I can fight for the little guy. However,


    not only did I not aplish anything these five days, I’ve even alerted the enemy. If not for you, I


    might have to take years to catch Lu Liangcheng. Dreams are nice but reality is a wake-up call.” Bai


    Rong said, dismayed.


    Gu Mingchen smiled sweetly. “It is the same whether I do it or you. Tang Xiaojiu’s death involves the


    both of us and since we promised him, we have to work hard together for ourmon goal.”


    “Actually, my motivations are not pure. I want to rise through the ranks by gaining as much sess as


    possible.” Bai Rong admitted truthfully.


    “That sounds perfect. No matter what it is that you desire, I will do my best to get it for you. I want what


    you want. I think this works out well, with you in the light while I remain in the shadows. When I retrieve


    the evidence, I still need you to process itwfully. Being able to work alongside you like this gives me


    great joy.”


    Bai Rong pondered his words for a moment and he seemed to be right.


    This meant that her decision was right and she could not help but smile.


    Gu Mingchen bent down and captured her lips in a kiss.


    Bai Rong dodged and cleared her throat. “The room is being watched.”


    “I have already turned it off.” Gu Mingchen grinned. “What were you thinking?”


    Bai Rong, who thought they were going to make love again bashfully replied, “Nothing?”


    “Less thinking, more action.” He scooped her up and headed for the bathroom….


    The happy days were glorious yet fleeting.


    Gu Mingchen only stayed for a while but it was already dark by the time he left.


    The needle on his speedometer never dipped below 160.


    Bai Rong heard someone knocking on the door. Assuming it was Zhou Min who had returned, she went


    to open it without second thought.


    She found Su Xuyan standing there instead, with that devilishly charming smile of his, but his eyes


    betrayed the bitter malice within.


    Bai Rong tried to quickly shut the door but Su Xuyan muscled his way in.


    Su Xuyan looked at Bai Rong with an odd expression and his gaze prated deeply into her. “Bai


    Rong, do you know who vited you three years ago?” He asked expressionlessly.


    Bai Rong was stunned for a moment and nced at Su Xuyan. “Who?”


    Hope fluttered in her heart.


    Perhaps my child was taken away by his father…
