You Owe Me, My Love

When Bai Rong was awake, she borrowed a clock from Song Xiyu, which was placed on the table.

She knew she had been trapped in this small dark room for seven days.

During these seven days, she had never spoken a single word.

On the morning of the eighth day, she was being blindfolded again and taken onto a van with no license plate.

The van made many turns and she had changed several vehicles en route.

Three hours later, she was thrown out of the van.

When she removed her blindfold, the morning sun blinded her.

She was not able to keep her eyes opened, so she closed her eyes again and opened them slowly.

The first thing she saw was a water fountain.

In the middle of the fountain was a statue of a woman holding her child.

It seemed like an irony to Bai Rong.

She also saw green trees and grass, as well as red flowers.

She was still alive.

Bai Rong knew that she was near a park. She walked towards the roadside and hailed a cab.

“Sir, I don’t have any money. Can you make a call for me? I will get someone to pick me up.” Bai Rong said softly.

The driver was startled to see Bai Rong looking as pale as a ghost and was wearing a creased blue skirt stained with blood.

Her hand was also bandaged.

“Did you get robbed or kidnapped? Do you need to call the police?” The driver kindly offered.

Bai Rong shook her head and her eyes were red-rimmed. “There is no use even if I call the police,” she said.
