You Owe Me, My Love

Feeling thoroughly sorry for what had happened, Cheng Jinrong stood outside the entrance and looked into the room.

Chen Wei’s father closed the door, leaving Cheng Jinrong where he was.

Bai Rong could surmise that the traitor whom Chen Wei’s father mentioned was probably Cheng Jinrong.

If the treasure was somewhere else, it might be because Chen Wei’s father was being cautious. Instead of the mastermind, Cheng Jinrong was on the receiving end of the message. Chen Wei’s father was hoping to muddle the mastermind and at the same time coax Cheng Jinrong into marrying his daughter. Once things were done, he would disclose the exact location.

What he had planned and done was all for his daughter.

Sadly, she died in the hands of her love rival.

He must have been furious with Cheng Jinrong and himself.

If he hadn’t cajoled Cheng Jinrong with the treasure, he wouldn’t have broken up with his daughter, and she would still be alive.

That was why he gave Bai Rong his notebook that contained crucial information about the treasure.

She wasn’t in it for the fortune. All she wanted was to fulfill the promise she made to Tang Xiaojiu by tracking down the murderer, having the person incarcerated, and returning the treasure to the country.

As for Gu Mingchen and her, only fate would know if they would still end up together.

Since she had fulfilled her promise to Cheng Jinrong, it was time for her to deal with her own issues.

After she slotted the notebook into her bag, she trudged to the entrance. “I shall take my leave then, Mr. Chen. Take care.”

With tears brimming in his eyes, he nodded and opened the door for her.
