You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 163

GXXX, come to Carriage 12. I’m here.

The line swam around Bai Rong’s mind.

How did Gu Mingchen know she was going to Pingyan City?

“Ms. Bai, Ms. Bai.” Leng Qiuzun’s assistant nudged her out of her musings.

“What happened?” Bai Rong asked.

“My boss would like to have a word with you.” Leng Qiuzun’s assistant reminded her.

Bai Rong looked at the man in question.

Leng Qiuzun was in a particularly bad mood. His long face, gloomy countenance, and murderous glares were a displeasing sight to behold. “You are more impudent than people say.” He commented sarcastically.

“I just become absorbed when I’m thinking.” Bai Rong quickly explained.

Whether or not that explanation was believable to him did not matter to her.

Leng Qiuzun turned away from her, signaling the end of that interaction.

Now who was the impudent one?

Leng Qiuzun’s assistant laughed dryly. “Boss was just talking about how Xiong Zhiqing had never been to Pingyan City and appears to have no links to Xiong Jinping whatsoever. The only possible connection we found is this adult website they both visited. What are your thoughts on this?”

“I am not sure yet. I haven’t had much time to analyze the case.” Bai Rong said as she downcast her eyes.

Since this might have something to do with the Special Forces Military Base, she did not want to speculate unnecessarily in case it brought about negative consequences.

“What a scam.” Leng Qiuzun spat, his lips turned upwards in a nasty smirk.

She looked at him but he refused to meet her gaze.

Bai Rong feigned a smile. “According to studies relating to psychology, a sharp tongue is a sign of either an inferiority complex or guilt. May I ask which camp you belong to?”

Leng Qiuzun turned his glare upon Bai Rong, his nostrils flared. Indeed, he looked rather fearsome. “Do you really think that I am either?”

“From the moment I got onto the bus, you’ve been trying to test me, getting me to prove that I truly am as capable as people say. You’ve been judgmental and rude. Could it be that you’re afraid that I’ll outshine you, which is why you keep trying to test me? Is that not a sign of guilt?” Bai Rong remarked casually.

“What a pile of nonsense from some ignorant rookie.” Leng Qiuzun dismissed her coldly.

“You truly are talented and clever, with an aptitude for analysis. Although you rarely make an appearance, you are admired by many. Unfortunately, you crave glory too much, much like history’s famous general Baiqi.”

“Baiqi? Looks like I’m not the only analyst here. I’m done wasting my breath on you.” He said as he promptly shut his eyes, indicating that he was done with the conversation.

He was wrong. Bai Rong had actually not studied him at all but she didn’t bother to reply.

She only took the case to return a favor.

After half an hour on the road, the bus arrived at the North train station.

The ticket master passed out their tickets, which all read GXXX.

They were given priority seating.

Bai Rong checked her room number which read Carriage 6.

She did not want to reveal her relationship with Gu Mingchen to anyone so she followed the group to Carriage 6.

The carriage was in first class.

She had just sat down when a text message alert came in.

She opened it, seeing that it was from Gu Mingchen.

“Are you waiting for a formal invitation?” Gu Mingchen asked domineeringly.

Bai Rong helplessly texted back, “I just boarded the train. I’ll come over as soon as I can.”
