You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 129

Bai Rong couldn’t fall asleep and ended up watching videos throughout the night.

The programs she watched ranged from Chow Xingxing’s film Journey, to all sorts of comedic reality shows, and lastly, a movie titled Hua Mulan.

Hua Mulan had experienced all sorts of battles and lost many friends during the twelve years she spent on the battlefield.

She had fought side by side with prince Wen Tai and won the war, but Wen Tai ended up marrying Princess Rouran for the sake of peace and became a king, while Hua Mulan spent the rest of her life being single.

She felt her heart hurt even more as she finished the movie, and stared off into space as she sat on her bed.

She was thinking about her future and the things she should do and wondered how nice it would be if she could forget everything and start over.

In the morning, Bai Rong looked at the dark circles on her eyes as she was brushing her teeth.

She tried her best to forget everything that had happened last night as life had to go on and she had things that she needed to do.

She applied some makeup to cover the dark circles around her eyes as well as some lip gloss to brighten up her appearance.

Everyone seemed especially lazy at work after their reunion dinner the night before.

Bai Rong continued to sort through the letters and documents to keep herself busy so that she would not have time to feel sad.

At 10 a.m., the director came looking for Bai Rong with a serious look on his face, “Bai Rong, there’s someone here to see you.”

“Who is it?” Bai Rong figured it was someone important, judging from the expression on the director’s face.

She couldn’t think of anyone who would be looking for her, and followed the director to his office.

There was an emotionless man standing at the door and Bai Rong could tell that he was a soldier.

She wondered if Gu Mingchen’s parents had found out about her encounter with him in the garden last night, as she pushed the door open and went in nervously.

Gu Mingchen was seated in the director’s chair with an upright posture and a stern look in his eyes that seemed to penetrate her soul.

Bai Rong was confused as to why Gu Mingchen would look for her.

“It’s you?” Gu Mingchen was equally confused.

Bai Rong clenched her fists nervously and lowered her gaze as she tried to calm herself down, “Did you need something from me, Chief?”

“I was having dinner with an old comrade of mine last night, and he mentioned your name.” Gu Mingchen said coldly.

She figured it was probably the director from the armed forces unit.

“What did he say?” Bai Rong asked.

“He asked about the status of the matter which I was handling previously and if you had tried contacting me. He also told me that he found it strange that you are still at the prosecutor’s office. Have I ever tasked you with anything?” Gu Mingchen asked with a confused look on his face.

Bai Rong felt that this was the best chance for Zhou Min and the others to return to their unit.

They would probably be gone from her life after she told him about it, but she couldn’t be so selfish.
