You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 114

Bai Rong’s heart trembled at the words as she looked at the plate.

There was no signage on the plate, but the handwriting was strong and sharply dynamic. One look at it and the woman immediately recognized it to be Gu Mingchen’s handwriting.

“It was written today!” Yang Li exclaimed in surprise.

A layer of tears moistened her eyes. Bai Rong lowered her eyes, trying to hide the glistening emotions within her.

“Ms. Bai, are you alright?” Yang Li inquired.

“Can I have a pen and a wooden plate? I would like to be alone for a moment.” Bai Rong uttered as calmly as she could.

“Oh, yes.” Yang Li took out the pen and wooden plate she had prepared beforehand and passed it to Bai Rong.

After taking the plate, the woman sat beneath the Entwined Trees and began to write her message on the plate: Try protecting me for as long as you wish, but I won’t forgive you.

She did not leave her signage nor the date of writing. After that, she hanged the plate right beside Gu Mingchen’s before staring at them.

Both plates touched each other as they swayed with the wind.

Never had she expected that he would also be in Jinyang City. Was he also here to investigate Lu Liangcheng?

By the time she returned to the private room, Director Jin of Jinyang City’s prosecutor’s office had arrived.

The man was around 50 years of age and looked pretty well built. He had put on a jovial smile as he extended his hands to her. “I would like to welcome the boss to inspect our work.”

“Nah I’m not your boss. The higher ups want me here, so I’m just following their orders. I believe we will work well together.” Bai Rong returned a polite smile.

“You look so young, Ms. Bai. How long have you been working as a prosecutor?” Director Jin inquired.

“Age doesn’t matter in this line, as long I have great passion in my work.” Bai Rong answered vaguely.

“That’s right indeed! Ms. Bai is indeed a young and promising woman for achieving such a rank at a young age. Anyway, we will definitely give our utmost cooperation to make your work easier. Please have a seat.” Director Jin invited with a smile.

Actually, Bai Rong’s position was not that high. She was just a pawn, but just like the game of chess, she could check the King.

The woman might just be a regular staff member within the CCDI. However, upon being dispatched to another city, she would be treated like a queen by the prosecutor’s office of that city.

To Jinyang City’s prosecutor’s office, the feedback of her inspection was very important to them.

Halfway through dinner, Director Jin received a phone call.

“All right. Sure, you must entertain him properly as he’s the future son-in-law of Deputy Commander Su. It’s good to acquaint such an important figure for our future ventures. Ok, ok I’ll come over now.”

Bai Rong tightened her grip on her wine glass upon hearing his words. Her nails were white with the sheer force of her grip.

“Ermm, excuse me, I have to go over to have a toast next door.” Director Jin explained while taking his glass.

Seeing the change in attitude, Yang Li also followed suit and took a wine bottle. “Director, let me accompany you. Two is better than one, especially if one of them is a girl.”

“You, naughty girl with your sneaky ideas. Alright, let’s go together.” Director Jin took the lead and walked out.

“Is Deputy Commander Su’s future son-in-law the son of Deputy Commander Gu?” Zhong Tong turned to ask Zeng Shuying.

“Yes, he’s the one. I’ve seen him on TV before. He’s an extremely good-looking man with perfect features. He is even better looking than the actors! Not just that, he also has a strong temperament compared to most men. His gaze alone could kill everyone on the spot.” Zeng Shuying replied with great admiration.

“No wonder that little rascal Yang Li wants to go over and see him.”

“Why don’t we check him out too? Let’s go together, Ms. Bai!” Zeng Shuying held up her wine glass and suggested.

Bai Rong’s eyes were slightly reddened by now. “Oh, leave me out of this. I’m feeling a bit drunk now. I’d better rest earlier.”

“Oh ok. Yang Yan, you didn’t drink right? Please send Ms. Bai back then.” Zeng Shuying instructed Yang Yan.

“No problem.” Yang Yan stood up and took his coat.

“Tend to her properly.” Li Yu reminded him.

“Alright. Ms. Bai, let’s go.” Yang Yan led the way out.
