You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 179

“You’ve forgotten everything and don’t know anything anymore. You think you haven’t forgotten, but that’s just your speculation.” Bai Rong frowned as she said in a sobbing voice.

Gu Mingchen stared at her teary face, unsure of what they had gone through before, why she had resented him so much, and she was so certain that he didn’t like her.

However, he was very sure of the pain he had felt when he saw her crying like that as well as when she said she wanted to give up on him.

Gu Mingchen lowered his head and kissed her tears as he said, “Then wait for me to find out again. Until I regain my memories, I won’t let go of you.”

“You’re just wasting both our time like this.” Bai Rong pushed at him.

Gu Mingchen grabbed her hand, “You don’t have a boyfriend anyway, do you?”

Bai Rong knew that he was right, but she was afraid of getting herself back into the pain of loving him again.

A knocking was heard and Bai Rong looked defensively at the door.

“What is it?” Gu Mingchen asked.

“It’s me, Wang. Mr. Leng wants you to come over for a bit. He says there’s something he wants to discuss with you.” Wang said.

“You’d better go now, or Leng Qiuzun will come over shortly.” Bai Rong advised him.

Gu Mingchen let go of her as he got up and switched on his computer. He then looked at her as he said, “I’ll be back soon, you can watch the video first.”

“Alright.” Bai Rong said, and watched as he left the room.

She felt that it was inappropriate for her to stay in his room, so she grabbed the fruits and walked towards her room.

Leng Qiuzun’s room.

“The case is almost solved! Were you the one who requested for our superiors to have us stay out of it?” Leng Qiuzun questioned.

“This case involves too many parties, so the military has taken over it. Isn’t it good that you get to rest earlier as well, Leng Qiuzun?” Gu Mingchen said coldly.

“Each profession has its own field of specializations. Don’t you think you’re going overboard, Mr. Gu? Is it okay to make light of human lives like that just because the murderer and deceased are from the military? I think you owe the families of the deceased an explanation.” Leng Qiuzun said sternly.

Gu Mingchen smirked as he sat on the sofa, “And what explanation are you talking about, Mr. Leng?”

“I mean we should let their families know how the deceased were killed!” Leng Qiuzun said coldly.

“Let them know how they were killed? And then what? Have them seek out the murderers for revenge? The problem is, the murderers have also been killed, so who are the parents going to seek revenge from? Their children have been dead for twenty-five years and they are all very old now. They have either already gotten over the loss of their children or are hoping that they are still alive and well. Either way, letting them know the harsh reality of the situation will not do them any good.” Gu Mingchen said calmly.

“So you plan to just cover up the truth?” Leng Qiuzun said in disapproval.

“Whatever happened has happened, so there is no covering up. We are only choosing a better way to express the truth. For example, we can compensate them with money or career advancements.”

“You just want to protect the reputation of the military! Don’t try and dress it up nicely like that! Mr. Gu, you’re nothing but a hypocritical and cunning bastard!” Leng Qiuzun said angrily.

“Those three had not even joined the military twenty-five years ago. They had not done anything bad after joining the military, so what’s wrong with me protecting the reputation of the military? Do you think it would be helpful towards maintaining order if the civilians start a rebellion out of distrust towards the military? On top of that, do you think it would be good for our country’s reputation as a whole if word about this incident were to be spread internationally? Although I may come off as a cunning bastard as a result of my less honorable methods of doing things, what is my sacrifice compared to the interests of our country? If there is nothing else, I need to get back to solving the case now, Mr. Leng.” Gu Mingchen stood up.

“Does Bai Rong know how tyrannical you are? Do you think she will approve of your methods?” Leng Qiuzun asked coldly.
