You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 393 Are You Still Mad At Me

“Do you think it was done by a single person or a duo?” Gu Mingchen asked.

“At least two people were involved. One person wouldn’t have been able to render Ai Wei’er unconscious and keep the oil lamp from smashing to the ground. Plus, the person who locked the door didn’t enter through the main entrance as the door was locked from the outside. If that person has truly gained entry, then there are other passages in this castle.” Wu Nian walked toward the fireplace and looked at the ashes there. “Take a look, Gu Mingchen.”

Striding over, Gu Mingchen spotted another drag mark on the ground. “I’ll go up and take a look.”

He crawled in, only to swiftly back out in the next moment as oil poured down from above, followed by a dozen logs that were lit.

The moment the logs came into contact with the oil, a blazing fire flared to life.

Taking Wu Nian’s hand, Gu Mingchen took three steps back.

“I’ll break the door.” As he said that, he snagged a chair and stalked out before smashing it against the door.

He hit it once, twice, thrice… On the sixth time, the door finally broke.

They were then greeted by the sight of Slack sprawled over the steering wheel with a knife protruding from his neck and blood pooling on the ground.

Wu Nian placed her hand under his nose, only to find that he was no longer breathing. Thus, she shook her head at Gu Mingchen.

“Run ahead and call Mo Xue when there’s a signal. Ask her to keep the front gate closed and get the surveillance footage at once,” Gu Mingchen ordered.

Subsequently, he climbed onto the car and swept his gaze around. “I spot them. There are three men, so I’ll give chase!”

Leaping down from the car, he sprinted toward the northern gate at full tilt.

When Wu Nian had gotten a signal, she immediately phoned Mo Xue. “Mo Xue, an issue came up. Someone kidnapped Ai Wei’er. Send men to the northern gate at once.”

After saying that, she hung up and ran toward the northern gate as well.

When Gu Mingchen saw the three men stuffing Ai Wei’er into the van, he grabbed the door immediately.

“Be careful, Gu Mingchen!” Wu Nian shouted anxiously.

Jumping up, Gu Mingchen slipped into the van, and in the next instance, a man was kicked out the opposite door.
