You Owe Me, My Love

Bai Rong’s eyes glinted sharply as she shot Su Xuyan a withering stare. “I don’t understand what you’re getting at, Su Xuyan.”

Su Xuyan smirked and said, “I was just joking. Don’t take it seriously. Anyway, I’m meeting some friends nearby. Gotta go.”

After that, he got into his car and sped off.

Bai Rong finally understood that he had come here to remind her that he was always around.

“I don’t like him. Just walk away when you see him next time,” Gu Mingchen ordered.

“I don’t like him either,” Bai Rong answered firmly.

Both of them went back after that.

Gu Mingchen drove while Bai Rong leaned against her seat, looking out the window to watch the night view zooming past.

“You can take a nap if you’re tired. I’ll wake you up once we’re at the military base,” Gu Mingchen suggested.

“Mm.” Bai Rong closed her eyes, but sleep remained out of reach due to the worries plaguing her mind. Hence, she opened her eyes again. “I was thinking, the five people involved in the massacre knew each other. As long as we get to one of them, we’d be able to lure the remaining three out. Should we set hide some treasures as traps?”

“This idea crossed my mind too, but there’s no rush. Once I get that piece of land, we’ll have plenty of time to plot our next course of action,” Gu Mingchen reassured.

At that moment, Bai Rong felt deeply connected to Gu Mingchen. True soulmates had compatible personalities and a similar way of thinking. Not to mention, they would be open to each other’s opinions and always compromise with each other.

She had the sudden impulse to tell Gu Mingchen about Tian.

“Gu Mingchen, is there a monitoring device in your car?” Bai Rong asked tentatively.

“All vehicles are inspected upon entering the military base. Hence, a monitoring device may have been installed after we left the car. What’s wrong?” Gu Mingchen cocked a brow.

“Nothing. I was just asking.” Bai Rong stopped talking and leaned back to look out the windows again.

She wanted to fight for herself one more time.
