You Owe Me, My Love

Bai Rong’s heart soared. “What are you doing here?”

“Just passing by. I need to return to the neighboring city to handle a couple of things.” Gu Mingchen explained.

No wonder Zhou Min had gone shopping on her own and even rejected any company. She must have known that Gu Mingchen was coming.

“I have made significant progress and have already started making my move on the people behind the antiques scheme. One step at a time, I will soon be able to apprehend those at Xingzheng Construction Company and they will eventually lead me to Lu Liangcheng. Once I catch him, I might even be able to solve the case of the village massacre.”

“Zhou Min has reported to me. I think that even if someone accuses Lu Liangcheng, he might still not confess to the massacre. It is a choice between jail and the death sentence and he will not be so stupid as to willingly choose the latter by confessing. Unless we are able to find those gold bars.” Gu Mingchen said logically.

“Hopefully we are able to find the evidence soon and put him behind bars. Have you eaten yet?” Bai Rong asked worriedly.

Gu Mingchen tapped her nose, saying, “I wanted to see you, but I must leave soon.”

Disappointment crushed Bai Rong like a boulder.

Even if he had not eaten, he was still unable to eat with her.

“You don’t have to specially drop by next time if you are in such a rush. I understand that you are busy.”

Gu Mingchen smiled.

It took him four hours to rush back, and he would only be able to stay with her for an hour or so. Yet, he did so happily. She was worth it.

“You have lost weight, please eat more. Some things cannot be rushed. Take your time. Now that we are sure there’s a problem with Jinyang City, the calmer you are, the more frantic those wrongdoers will be.” Gu Mingchen advised rationally.

“I know I am too anxious.”
