You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 429


    Chapter 429 She Became The Devil So That He Could Be A Saint


    Bai Rong got out of bed, washed up, and scarfed down the breakfast Gu Mingchen had prepared for


    her. She then tossed a recorder into her bag and called Zhou Han.


    Five beeps sounded before Zhou Han picked up. Her voice was nasally, and she spoke between


    coughs. “Hello, who’s calling?”


    “This is Wu Nian. Are you free at noon? I’d like to meet up with you,” Bai Rong replied.


    “Ms. Wu?” Zhou Han was taken aback. “I don’t think we have anything to talk about. What prompted


    this sudden call?” She let out two coughs.


    “There are some important issues I would like to discuss with you. You can choose the venue. I’ll head


    over right now,” was Bai Rong’s ambiguous answer.


    The line was silent for a few seconds before Zhou Han’s refusal was heard. “I’m down with a cold, so


    it’s best if I don’t leave the house for now.”


    “That’s alright. I can go to your house instead. I’ll only take ten minutes of your time. I believe you’ll be


    interested in what I have to share. It concerns Mr. Gu,” Bai Rong persuaded, her tone insistent.


    “Alright then. Let’s meet at a café on Love Avenue. I’ll be there in an hour or so,” Zhou Han


    conceded.


    “I’ll see you then.” Bai Rong ended the call.


    After leaving the house, she drove to a market. She bought a fresh chicken, some mushrooms,


    sprouts, and beans before entering a drugstore.


    “How can I help you?” an employee greeted enthusiastically.


    “I’m just browsing,” Bai Rong decline her offer to help. She scanned the products on the shelf before


    selecting four pregnancy tests and handing them to the cashier.


    “That will be twelve in total.”


    Bai Rong put a white bottle in her bag and pulled out her purse. After paying the cashier, she left the


    store and drove off. However, instead of going to the café, she nced at the rearview mirror and


    drove home.


    The Shadow Samurais should be watching me now.


    At that thought, she stepped on the elerator and made a sharp turn. In the rearview mirror, a silver


    Volkswagen mirrored her actions, still on her tail. The driver had on a ck cap with its bill pulled low to


    hide his face.


    To confirm her suspicions, Bai Rong slowed down her car. As expected, the silver Volkswagen did the


    same.


    Her lips quirked upwards as she looked at the time.


    Soon, her phone rang with an iing call from Zhou Han.


    Unsurprised, Bai Rong picked up the call.


    “Ms. Wu, where are you? It has been more than an hour,” Zhou Han said, displeasure evident in her


    voice.


    “I’m on the way. Something came up., so please wait for a while,” Bai Rong answered calmly. She then


    doubled back and headed to Love Avenue.


    Just as she was about to arrive at the café, her phone rang.


    Bai Rong epted the call after realizing that the caller was Gu Mingchen.


    “Have you eaten?” Gu Mingchen’s voice traveled through the receiver.


    “Not yet. I received a call from Zhou Han, and she asked to meet up at a café, so I’m on my way over


    now. I see the Shadow Samurais. They’re driving a silver Volkswagen, aren’t they?” Bai Rong asked


    with a chuckle.


    Gu Mingchen ignored her question. “She asked to meet up with you?” he repeated, shocked.


    “It might be because I contacted her.”


    “Why did you contact her?” Gu Mingchen grew anxious.


    “I thought about it. Since Zhou Han is the key to discovering the truth, I can try befriending her. Who


    knows, this strategy might actually work.”


    “Don’t be silly. She won’t fall for it. She’s incredibly wary of you, so it’s impossible for you to get closer


    to her. Didn’t I tell you that I would handle this?” Gu Mingchen sounded resigned.


    “Let me try. We can’t say for sure that it’ll fail. Don’t worry. Your men are following me, so nothing bad


    will happen. I’ll talk to youter,” Bai Rong reassured him before ending the call. She stared at the café,


    her gaze sharp.


    She got out of the car after pulling it to a stop. As she walked into the café, she made a call to Zhou


    Han. “I’ve arrived. Where are you?”


    “I’m in Room 203. Have a waiter bring you here,” Zhou Han said with barely suppressed anger.


    Bai Rong approached a waiter and requested, “Could you bring me to Room 203?”


    “Sure. This way, please.” The waiter escorted her to a private lounge.


    Bai Rong pushed the door open and walked in.


    “You’ve lost weight,” Zhou Han remarked with a frown when she saw Bai Rong.


    “I was too fat, so I went on a diet.” Bai Rong replied nonchntly as her gaze fell on the table. On it


    was some chrysanthemum tea that Zhou Han had ordered.


    “You’ve be prettier after losing weight. You mentioned that you have to tell me something about


    Mingchen. What is it?” Zhou Han cut straight to the topic.


    Bai Rong took a seat facing her and replied, “Gu Mingchen has two sons. I heard that you’re taking


    care of one. Is the other one overseas?” Her tone tilted upwards in question.


    “I was also wondering about that. Didn’t he say that you would tutor him? I thought Mingchen took a


    liking to you. Why did the agreement fall through?” Zhou Han asked curiously.


    Bai Rong picked up the teapot and filled Zhou Han’s cup. “Something came up, so I had to leave for


    Xyperia, and the tutoring got pushed aside temporarily as a result.”


    “Xyperia,” Zhou Han mused. “That’s pretty good. But what did you want to say about Gu Mingchen?”


    she prompted impatiently.


    “To be exact, it’s about you.” Bai Rong passed the teacup to Zhou Han.


    “About me?” Zhou Han echoed. She eyed Bai Rong with suspicion and did not ept the proffered


    teacup. Keeping her guard up, she urged, “Stop acting so shifty. Anything you have to say, please say


    it straight. I don’t have much time to spare.”


    Bai Rong set the cup down and smiled. “Ms. Zhou, you should know by now that you’re no more than a


    pawn.”


    “What?” Zhou Han sprang up from her seat. Her shrill voice climbed up several decibels. “What do


    you mean? A pawn? Ridiculous!”


    Fuming, she stalked to the door.


    “You’ve done so much for that man, sacrificing your health and staying single for so long. But at the


    end of the day, you’ll grow old alone. Are all your efforts really worth it?” Bai Rong spokenguidly as


    she spiked Zhou Han’s drink.


    Zhou Han’s footsteps came to a halt. She pivoted on her heel and feigned ignorance, “Ms. Wu, I


    believe you have the wrong person. I have no idea what you’re saying.”


    “Your final task was a ruse, and you knew it. So why did you willingly mar your face? Women are


    inherently vain creatures. You should be no different.” Bai Rong looked at Zhou Han out of the corner


    of her eye.


    Wide-eyed, Zhou Han scrutinized Bai Rong.


    Bai Rong’s lips quirked into a smirk as she nodded at the vacant seat opposite her. “Would you be


    interested in making a deal?”


    Zhou Han hesitated before taking a seat. “What is it?”


    “Take my side. I can help you and your child escape, and you’ll not be under anyone’s thumb from then


    on,” Bai Rong proposed.


    “What do you want me to do?”N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    “Tell me what he made you do.” Bai Rong leveled a stare at Zhou Han.


    “I am a free woman. Your offer does not interest me.”


    Bai Rong stood up. Her eyes gleamed with malice as she loomed over Zhou Han. “The kid must love


    you. What if I use Gu Ruoxin as a bargaining chip?” A sinister look shed across Bai Rong’s face.
