You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 429 She Became The Devil So That He Could Be A Saint

Bai Rong got out of bed, washed up, and scarfed down the breakfast Gu Mingchen had prepared for her. She then tossed a recorder into her bag and called Zhou Hailan.

Five beeps sounded before Zhou Hailan picked up. Her voice was nasally, and she spoke between coughs. “Hello, who’s calling?”

“This is Wu Nian. Are you free at noon? I’d like to meet up with you,” Bai Rong replied.

“Ms. Wu?” Zhou Hailan was taken aback. “I don’t think we have anything to talk about. What prompted this sudden call?” She let out two coughs.

“There are some important issues I would like to discuss with you. You can choose the venue. I’ll head over right now,” was Bai Rong’s ambiguous answer.

The line was silent for a few seconds before Zhou Hailan’s refusal was heard. “I’m down with a cold, so it’s best if I don’t leave the house for now.”

“That’s alright. I can go to your house instead. I’ll only take ten minutes of your time. I believe you’ll be interested in what I have to share. It concerns Mr. Gu,” Bai Rong persuaded, her tone insistent.

“Alright then. Let’s meet at a café on Love Avenue. I’ll be there in an hour or so,” Zhou Hailan conceded.

“I’ll see you then.” Bai Rong ended the call.

After leaving the house, she drove to a market. She bought a fresh chicken, some mushrooms, sprouts, and beans before entering a drugstore.

“How can I help you?” an employee greeted enthusiastically.

“I’m just browsing,” Bai Rong decline her offer to help. She scanned the products on the shelf before selecting four pregnancy tests and handing them to the cashier.

“That will be twelve in total.”

Bai Rong put a white bottle in her bag and pulled out her purse. After paying the cashier, she left the store and drove off. However, instead of going to the café, she glanced at the rearview mirror and drove home.
