You Owe Me, My Love

Bai Rong bought a new phone before she went back. Just to be safe, she even changed her number. She copied everybody’s phone number into her new phone as she headed to the police station. Those numbers included Su Xuyan’s, to which she sent a text to soon after.

Su Xuyan called her as soon as he received Bai Rong’s text, and she picked it up.

“So you changed your phone and your number, huh? Are you trying to run away?” said Su Xuyan in distaste.

“If I was trying to run, I would not be texting you now, would I? I’ve already decided. I will agree to your terms, but I have some things I need to deal with first. I should be back on the day after tomorrow, and I’ll go to you once I return,” replied Bai Rong in a distant tone.

“You’re still struggling, aren’t you? You won’t break free this time. I have control of everything, and he will die if I deem fit,” growled Su Xuyan arrogantly and firmly.

“Su Xuyan, you really are arrogant sometimes,” commented Bai Rong.

“That is not a shortcoming,” refuted Su Xuyan nonchalantly.

“Cheng Jinrong is my friend, and his ex-girlfriend was murdered. I promised I’d help him find the murderer, so I’ll be staying here for a few days,” explained Bai Rong.

“How nice of you. Gu Mingchen is about to die. Yet, you are focused on helping someone else. I wonder how Gu Mingchen would feel if he learns about this. What a poor sap. He fell for a heartless woman and is doomed to suffer,” dissed Su Xuyan gleefully.

Bai Rong looked ahead calmly.

She didn’t care how he thought of her, so she didn’t bother explaining any more than she already had.

“I’m hanging up now if there’s nothing else you’d like to say,” replied Bai Rong coolly.

“See you tonight,” said Su Xuyan before he hung up.

Bai Rong’s heart skipped a beat. What does he mean by that?

Meanwhile, Cheng Jinrong had noticed how Bai Rong was holding her phone with a stunned expression, so he asked in an apologetic tone, “Is that your husband? You don’t have to help if he’s unhappy with it. This has nothing to do with you anyway, and I feel bad for causing a fight between the two of you.”
