You Owe Me, My Love

“Being the cause of Hailan’s death has already made it impossible for you to forgive me. You will kill me if you have the chance, so what’s the difference if I kill another person?”

Gu Mingchen glared murderously at Xia He. Right then, Xia He took out her gun and pointed it at his head. “Search for that woman. If you can’t find her in half an hour, she will die.”

“I will hunt you to the ends of earth if you hurt her.” Gu Mingchen said hatefully.

“Hah, you’ll regret it, Gu Mingchen.” Xia He felt sad for one moment, and then she opened the window and jumped out.

Gu Mingchen hurled the phone to the ground angrily. He shouldn’t have left Bai Rong alone and put her in danger.

“Bai Rong. Bai Rong!” Gu Mingchen yelled.

Bai Rong looked down and leaned against the wooden pillar as she kicked the table in the cellar. The porcelain cup fell to the ground and broke apart.

Gu Mingchen heard it, so he lied against the ground to hear the sounds from the underground. “Can you hear me, Rong?”

Bai Rong kicked the table again, and Gu Mingchen quickly knocked on the floor. When he noticed the floorboard beneath the bed, he flung it open before jumping down.

After turning on his flashlight, the man saw Bai Rong. A moment later, he quickly untied her and ripped the tape off her lips. “Sorry, Rong. I shouldn’t have left you alone.”

“It’s fine. I understand. Let’s go up now.” Bai Rong said gently. She was extraordinarily calm. The woman didn’t even feel afraid when she faced three dastardly villains, so being tied up was nothing for her.

That woman could have gone overseas to lead a better life. Besides, Tang Xiaojiu is just a son of a villager. He is uncultured and uneducated, nor does he know about explosives and firearms.
