You Owe Me, My Love

“Ok.” Bai Rong replied softly.

After resting for a while, she returned to her room.

People were nosy. Gossip about them would be sure to arise soon given the recent attention they drew to themselves. It was best to stay wary.

Her back had only just hit the bed before another text came in.

She saw that it was from Gu Mingchen. He texted: What are you doing?

A smile played on Bai Rong’s lips, the first real one in two months.

Bai Rong: Preparing to sleep, you?

Gu Mingchen: Same. Together.

Bai Rong fell asleep with her phone in hand.

When she opened her eyes, the sun had already risen.

She looked at the time. It was already 10 a.m., which meant that she was late.

She jumped out of bed and rushed through brushing her teeth, slapped on some makeup and changed her clothes before dashing out the door.

As she passed by Room 1827, she noticed that the door was shut tight.

He must have already left.

When she arrived at the lobby, Yang Yan was already waiting.

Bai Rong apologized profusely. “I am so sorry. I accidentally woke up late and made you wait for me.”

“No worries. I heard about the murder in your room last night. I was shocked to hear that the hotel’s security captain turned out to be such a person and that you almost went down for it.” Yang Yan said coolly.

“The innocent will always be proven as so. Let’s leave now.” Bai Rong murmured, walking ahead.

When they entered the car, Yang Yan switched on the radio and the traffic news filled the air.

Bai Rong stared out the window.
