You Owe Me, My Love

Bai Rong and Gu Mingchen requested for one room each.

Soundproofing at the guest house was almost non-existent.

The next room was making so much noise that it was keeping Bai Rong awake.

Those two people next door… didn’t they need to sleep?

Each time Bai Rong thought they were done, the sounds started shortly after again.

Their bodies kept knocking against the wall between their rooms and the woman’s cries were so loud they sounded almost tragic.

Bai Rong felt like she was going crazy from listening to all that action going on next door.

She decided to go out to take a breath. Hopefully, when she got back, they would finally be done.

The air in the suburbs was much fresher than in the city. Although it was still very warm, there were also a lot of mosquitoes.

There was a bright, full moon that night, and Bai Rong could see fireflies dancing among the bushes.

She had not seen fireflies in a long while.

She recalled her childhood days where she would catch fireflies in a jar and trap them in a mosquito net. However, fireflies hardly glowed in mosquito nets. They could only be excited within their natural habitats.

Suddenly, Bai Rong felt something hit against her back.

She turned around, and saw a woman leaning out of the window from the room next to hers.

The woman seemed to be not wearing any clothes. She pointed to the ground and quickly drew the curtains again.

Bai Rong looked towards the ground and saw a pink blouse. The words SAVE ME were written on it in black ink.

Bai Rong’s chest tightened. Has she been held in captivity? She wondered.

Bai Rong had no time to lose. She immediately dashed to Gu Mingchen’s room and pounded on his door.

“What’s the matter?” Gu Mingchen asked when he opened the door.

“Gu Mingchen, I think the woman who is staying in the room next to mine is being held captive. Look at this blouse! It is her S.O.S.” Bai Rong said worriedly.

He scanned the words on the blouse and reassured her, “Relax. I need to confirm how many people there are in the room first.”
