You Owe Me, My Love

She was like a fragrant chrysanthemum flower, looking cold and aloof on the surface; but after knowing her deeper, it felt relaxed and refreshing to be with her.

“I’m sorry. If we are just a regular family, we would be happy to have you as our daughter-in-law. But we can’t afford to make any mistakes given our current status.” Song Xiyu sighed as she turned around and left.

As the door slammed shut, tears started streaming down Bai Rong’s cheeks.

This was the outcome she had expected.

The reason Cinderella could marry the prince was because she had three sets of gorgeous gowns and the only pair of crystal shoes in the world.

If Cinderella was just an ordinary peasant woman without a prominent family background, she could never be with the prince.

Bai Rong was hurt as though a hole was pierced in her heart.

Only those who had experienced warmth would know how cold felt like.

She had harbored hopes previously, that was why she was feeling such despair at the rejection.

The woman cried for a long time and fell asleep on the sofa after she got exhausted from crying.

Bai Rong was awoken by the ringtone of her phone.

She opened her eyes and saw that it was Liu Yan who was calling. “What’s the matter, Yan?” She answered.

“Have you seen the news on the internet? The murderer of Governor Cheng has been caught and the murder process was described in the news. The police have also located the rental apartment of the murderer near the prosecutor’s office. It was reported that Governor Cheng had received money from the killer but did not deliver the agreed task and the man killed him in a fit of anger. I feel that the murderer was just plain stupid. Governor Cheng has already been detained by the prosecutors and would receive his sentence sooner or later. There was no need for the murderer to do anything. What an idiot, right?” Liu Yan expressed her views.

Bai Rong did not say anything.

The official reports didn’t mention anything about the gold bars or the massacre of the village.
