You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 178

As proud and arrogant as he might be, he let go of Bai Rong and disappeared from her sight quickly.

Bai Rong closed the door after he left.

The world was finally peaceful and she had gotten what she wished for.

However, she couldn’t shake the inexplicable feeling of loss, sadness, and regret in her heart.

She didn’t go for lunch as she didn’t want to see Gu Mingchen, so she stayed in her room and had some instant noodles.

But the noodles were too hard and made her stomach uncomfortable, so she decided to go out and buy some fruits instead.

She opened the door and saw Leng Qiuzun standing outside. He was just about to knock on her door.

“What is it?” Bai Rong asked.

“They’ve arrested Wang Donger and brought her eyewitnesses in as well. One of them was her partner and the other was a photographer. I suspect that their confessions have been rehearsed ahead of time as they are all identical, claiming that they were filming at the time of the crime.” Leng Qiuzun said solemnly.

“Where were they filming?” Bai Rong asked.

“I’ll send it to your computer in a bit. We’ll interrogate Wang Donger at the station later at 2 p.m.. Try and see if you can find any weaknesses that we can use to break through Wang Donger’s psychological defenses.”

“Have you watched it?” Bai Rong asked.

Leng Qiuzun blushed, “I have.”

“Was it before or after editing?”

“After.”

“Send a copy of the unedited version to my mailbox. I’m going out to buy some fruits now and will watch it when I get back. I’ll head over to the station with you guys at 2 p.m. later.” Bai Rong said.

“Alright. What fruits do you want? I’ll have someone buy them for you.” Leng Qiuzun said with a spark in his eyes.

“I saw some fruit stalls near the hotel. I’ll just head over by myself.” Bai Rong refused his offer.

Leng Qiuzun was feeling awkward now. “Then help me buy some apples, pears and mangosteens while you’re at it. I love mangosteens.”

Bai Rong was silent as she watched Leng Qiuzun leave after saying that.

She didn’t want to argue with him as they wouldn’t be working together for long since they were about to solve the case soon anyway.

She went to the fruit stall and bought some apples, pears, mangosteens, oranges and bananas, which cost ninety-six.

Right as she was digging through her wallet for the money, someone handed the cashier a hundred bucks.

Bai Rong looked up and was shocked to see Gu Mingchen, “You’ve come to buy fruits too?”

Gu Mingchen didn’t even look at her as he said, “I had come to buy some fruits for you and ended up seeing you here. Have you had lunch?”

“I didn’t want to as I didn’t have any appetite.” Bai Rong said.

Gu Mingchen took the fruits over and looked at Bai Rong.

He was so big and tall that he looked like a giant steel wall as he stood in front of her.

Bai Rong felt a little awkward, “Some of them are for Leng Qiuzun.”

Gu Mingchen ignored her and walked towards the hotel entrance while Bai Rong followed behind him.

They went into the elevator in silence.

“Bai Rong.” Gu Mingchen called out suddenly.

“Hm?” Bai Rong looked up at him, not knowing what he wanted to say.

“I want you to watch something with me.” Gu Mingchen said.

“Are you referring to Wang Donger’s film?” Bai Rong asked.

No, we won’t find anything out of the edited version. I requested for the unedited version to focus on the bystanders.” Gu Mingchen reminded the woman.

She didn’t really feel like watching it with him after what had happened when they watched it together before.

“Leng Qiuzun has already sent me the unedited version.” Bai Rong shifted her gaze down as she said that.

“Alright, then we’ll watch it in your room.” Gu Mingchen said.

Bai Rong went silent.

She had meant to refuse his request politely by saying that, but he had played along instead.

“I want to watch it alone.” Bai Rong said directly.

Gu Mingchen looked unhappy as he stared at her and said in a commanding tone, “You have the right to make a request, but I reject it.”

“I’m not one of your men. I don’t need your approval.”

“Rejected.” Gu Mingchen increased the aggression in his tone.

Bai Rong frowned as she felt annoyed, “I think I’ve already made it very clear to you, Chief.”

“What did you make clear?” Gu Mingchen asked.

Bai Rong looked at him who seemed to have forgotten everything she said earlier, “I don’t love you anymore.”

Ding!

The elevator door opened, and Gu Mingchen walked out.

Bai Rong ran along behind him, “If there is no need for it, I feel that our relationship does not allow us to continue seeing each other.”

Gu Mingchen pursed his lips as he opened his room door and placed the fruits on the dining table inside.

Bai Rong stood at the doorstep and stared helplessly at the fruits from outside.

Gu Mingchen took off his necktie and undid the first button on his shirt as he frowned at her, “Are you afraid of coming in? Do you fear that I will eat you alive like some sort of monster?”

Bai Rong paused as she recalled how Gu Mingchen had said those exact same words to her before.

In fact, he was much scarier than any monster.

She walked past his room as she refused to enter but he ran outside and dragged her in by the arm anyway, slamming the door shut behind them.

Bai Rong pulled her arm free and walked towards the door but he was faster and placed an arm on the door, sandwiching her between him and the door.

“You just have to piss me off, huh?” Gu Mingchen said unhappily.

“You’re the one who’s pissing me off now!” Bai Rong retorted even more angrily.

“How am I pissing you off?” Gu Mingchen asked.

Bai Rong was losing her patience, “I want to leave but you won’t let me. I want to watch it by myself and you won’t let me either! How is that not pissing me off?!”

“Do you know why I did that?” Gu Mingchen retorted.

Bai Rong paused and stared into his eyes.

He wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her body in close towards his.

Bai Rong felt her back stiffen up as she pushed at his shoulders, “You can easily get yourself any woman you want. It doesn’t have to be me. I don’t want to be your woman!”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“There are plenty of women out there, but there aren’t many that I like. I prefer to love before making love.” Gu Mingchen turned around and pushed Bai Rong onto his bed as he climbed on top of her.

“Did you love me when we first had sex?” Bai Rong was annoyed.

She felt like she would melt from his hot passion and hated losing her rationality to him like this.

Gu Mingchen stared at her and recalled how he had felt something special about her since he saw her on the plane three years ago.

He felt like she was the one he had always been looking for and that she was the only one he would want to have sex with.

“I think he has probably never forgotten about you. That’s why he kept making me dream of you.” Gu Mingchen said.

Bai Rong could tell that he was referring to the old Gu Mingchen whom she had once loved and her tears started flowing again.
