You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 249
Feeling thoroughly sorry for what had happened, Cheng Jinrong stood outside the entrance and looked
into the room.
Chen Wei’s father closed the door, leaving Cheng Jinrong where he was.
Bai Rong could surmise that the traitor whom Chen Wei’s father mentioned was probably Cheng
Jinrong.
If the treasure was somewhere else, it might be because Chen Wei’s father was being cautious.
Instead of the mastermind, Cheng Jinrong was on the receiving end of the message. Chen Wei’s father
was hoping to muddle the mastermind and at the same time coax Cheng Jinrong into marrying his
daughter. Once things were done, he would disclose the exact location.
What he had nned and done was all for his daughter.
Sadly, she died in the hands of her love rival.
He must have been furious with Cheng Jinrong and himself.
If he hadn’t cajoled Cheng Jinrong with the treasure, he wouldn’t have broken up with his daughter, and
she would still be alive.
That was why he gave Bai Rong his notebook that contained crucial information about the treasure.
She wasn’t in it for the fortune. All she wanted was to fulfill the promise she made to Tang Xiaojiu by
tracking down the murderer, having the person incarcerated, and returning the treasure to the country.
As for Gu Mingchen and her, only fate would know if they would still end up together.
Since she had fulfilled her promise to Cheng Jinrong, it was time for her to deal with her own issues.
After she slotted the notebook into her bag, she trudged to the entrance. “I shall take my leave then,
Mr. Chen. Take care.”
With tears brimming in his eyes, he nodded and opened the door for her.
Cheng Jinrong didn’t move an inch.
“It’d be better if you leave. Seeing you would only make Chen Wei’s parents feel worse. Wait till they’re
over it, and then you can make up to them by supporting them to the best of your ability.” Bai Rong
went up to him and offered her advice.
“You’re right. Well, I guess I went for wool but came home shorn. I deserve this.” He let out a bitter sigh.
“Anyway, where are you headed? Need a ride?”
“No.” There were some things that she had to deal with on her own.
“Okay, then.”
As she walked toward the main road, she drew her phone out and gave Su Xuyan a call.
“What’s up? Missing me so soon?” He chuckled vilely.
Despite the chills running down her spine, Bai Rong pulled herself together and snapped, “My work
here is done, and I’ll be going back to A City now.”
“Are you ying me for a fool?” Su Xuyan was enraged as he was already on the train to Jadeborough.
“It’s not me who decides when a case is solved. If you think that’s what I’m trying to do, so be it. Bye.”
She hung up, took a cab to the hotel, and proceeded to check out.
As she walked past the room which Gu Mingchen had booked, she paused. Their n to meet here
had dissolved into thin air as things unfolded. All the hopeful outlook they had was just a pipe dreamN?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.
now. “Wait for me, Gu Mingchen.” She turned to the door and murmured as her heart wrenched in pain.
On her way to the train station, she phoned Lu Xingzhou.
“Speak up!” It was evident that the man wasn’t in his best mood.
Bai Rong totally understood where that came from. After all, thend which he thought was riddled with
treasure had fallen into the hands of the officials. It’d be a tough row to hoe for him to take over now.
“I’m sorry, but I have to return to A City to handle an emergency. It might take me a couple of days
before I can get back here again.”
“Cheng Jinrong told me everything. Give me a buzz once you’re back in town.” He hung up right after
thest word.
It was already 6:48 p.m. by the time she got on the train.
Taking her seat, she had just taken her first bite of the day when someone sat down across from her.
She looked up and was flummoxed to see Su Xuyan. Her appetite was instantly gone.
“I see that you’re still in the mood for a feast. Hmm, you’re indeed a cool-blooded creature, seeing how
you’re so indifferent to anyone who is treating you well.” Su Xuyan cast his steely eyes upon her and
pursed his lips.
She shoved down a spoonful of food and snarled, “You’re the one who drained what little warmth I had
in me. I don’t get it. Why are you so hung up over a heartless woman like me? For you to orchestrated
so many trickeries…”
Su Xuyan leaned back against his seat and threw in his exnation. “As you can see, I’m very petty, or
perhaps spiteful is a better word. You’ve wasted three years of mine so I’m going to do the same to
you.”
Bai Rong couldn’t stand it any longer. She mmed her chopsticks on the table and asked, “Tell me. If I
fulfilled all your demands, how do you n to set Gu Mingchen free?”
“I’m the person in charge of the witness protection program. It’ll be my words against or for him.” Su
Xuyan smirked.
She knew from the start that he had another identity.
“What if you failed to free him?”
“If I can put him in, I can easily pull him out. Why? You don’t trust me? Let’s end this conversation then.
Honestly, between you and Gu Mingchen, I’m more inclined to kill him. In other words, you have no
leverage here, Bai Rong.” Su Xuyan shrugged.
“Can I at least see him onest time?” she asked.
“Of course. And before I forget, talk him into a divorce and make him promise to marry Zhou Han.
Only then I’ll agree to let him go.” He then plunked a stack of documents on the table.
Bai Rong knitted her brows and looked at him in silence.
Su Xuyan put on a sly grin. “Go on, finish up your meal and go through these papers. I’ll take you to
see Gu Mingchen tomorrow.”
With that, he got on his feet and paced toward the first-ss cabin.
Bai Rong took the stack of documents and saw that it was a divorce agreement meant for Gu
Mingchen and her. Aside from that, there was also a copy of a prenuptial agreement for Gu Mingchen
and Zhou Han. On the prenuptial agreement, it was stated that either party who asked for a divorce
would have to leave the marriage with nothing.
Su Xuyan was indeed a malicious rogue. Not only did he rewrote their fate, but he was also going to
make her hurt Gu Mingchen onest time.
Bai Rong got frustrated and started losing herself. Her mind plunged into chaos, choking on all her
nerves. A wave of her hand sent her dinner crashing to the floor.
Sensing something was wrong with herself, her quivering hands ransacked her bag for the pills. She
popped one into her mouth and slumped onto the seat. A minute passed, and her mind was clear
again.
Whatever. I’m just a crazy b*tch by now. These pills won’tst me much longer. I can’t even have a
baby with Gu Mingchen. Sooner orter, I’ll be a burden, just like my mother.
All Bai Rong wanted was for Gu Mingchen to be happy, even if it meant giving up her life.
With that thought in mind, a smile crossed her face.
No matter what difficultiesy ahead, she would be happy as long as he was happy.
