You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 120

“Yes, I have, she is very stoic.” Bai Rong responded, looking at Zhou Min.

Zhou Min combed the room meticulously and expertly, removing each surveillance device and replacing it with a new one. She had also installed counter surveillance equipment at the same time.

“Don’t worry, Agent 1666 is extremely capable and will be able to take care of anything that you ask of her.” Gu Mingchen gently replied.

“Yes, I know.” Bai Rong responded, walking towards the sky garden.

“Do not approach anyone from the prosecutor’s office to help you in your investigation because I suspect there is a mole amongst them.” Gu Mingchen warned.

“I have the same suspicions. Yang Li and Yang Yan were rather nosy the whole trip back.”

“It is normal for them to be curious. After all, both of your arrivals were abrupt and it is natural for them to be worried for themselves. On the contrary, I find the director to be the most suspicious. I have arranged a team for you and all you have to do is instruct Zhou Min and she will contact them to get any jobs you need done.”

Bai Rong’s heart warmed at these words.

On the wooden piece, he had carved his promise to take care of her and she could genuinely feel his presence every step of the way.

“Where are you now?” Bai Rong asked softly.

“I am in the neighboring city. I have already contacted Director Chen and he has agreed to lend you his strength in any way he can, so go ahead and move forward boldly. I will be here for you through it all.”

“You should be careful too. Your mother mentioned that you are starting a dangerous mission again and I am worried about you.”

“Please, it barely counts as dangerous, just some routine exercises. Do you still remember that soldier who lost his leg?” Gu Mingchen asked.

“I do. He is the one whose wife wanted to divorce him.”

“He was injured during a military drill and although many others were injured as well, his injuries were the most severe. I have been looking into it for some time and have found the supplier for the weapons used during the exercise.”

It was even more dangerous than what Bai Rong had anticipated. “Please be careful. I cannot live without you.”

Gu Mingchen smiled. “With you here, I will never let anything happen to myself.”

A blush spread across Bai Rong’s cheeks.

They were both working hard towards their individual goals. It felt good. “I have to go back to work now. Good luck.”

“Good luck to you too. I will see you in two days.” Gu Mingchen’s voice softened as he addressed her.

“You’d better not. It wouldn’t be pleasant if your parents or Su Wanning finds out. I can wait two years.” As Bai Rong worried for the both of them, the area where her pinky used to be started to throb with a dull ache.

If they were being found out again, the consequence would not be as simple as losing a finger.

Gu Mingchen’s stormy gaze darkened as he ended the call.

“Chief.” Lieutenant Shang exclaimed.

Gu Mingchen closed his eyes and responded, “Carry on.”

The special effects makeup artist continued sticking on the fake beard on his face.

Bai Rong and Zhou Min returned to the prosecutor’s office in the afternoon.

She flipped through the case files handled by the office in recent years.

They mostly consisted of financial disputes.

They targeted several state-owned enterprises and caught a couple of people each year in order to meet their quota.

These cases were of no help to them.

“Where are the complaint letters? Show me the ones from this year.” Bai Rong looked towards the Head Commissioner, Zeng Shuying.

Zeng Shuying’s assistant carried a large pile of letters over and dropped it in front of them after which Bai Rong and Zhou Min immediately dived in.

Those were mostly trivial matters, ranging from someone stealing their neighbor’s cable to someone stealing their best friend’s boyfriend to even someone complaining about their boss making them work overtime.

Bai Rong scanned the pile in two hours then turned towards Zeng Shuying and asked, frustrated, “Are these all?”
