You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 284

Chapter 284 I Trust No One But Bai Rong

“You shouldn’t trust strangers. I don’t know you well. You can ask your mommy to bring you there.” Bai Rong ruffled his hair and told him honestly.

“My mommy can’t find out where that place is. Otherwise, someone else will take me away from her. I need to retrieve something important. I trust you. Can you please help me? I don’t want to die,” he pleaded.

“Where is that? What do you need to retrieve?” Bai Rong asked warily.

The boy replied, “It’s a map which I hid a long time ago. I need to be there to know where the exact location is. I’ve made a mark.”

Furrowing her brows, Bai Rong studied the boy. “What map?”

“About the base. I need to give it to Daddy,” came the boy’s answer.

Bai Rong twitched her lips as she caught the mistake made by the little boy.

“Then you should ask for your daddy’s help. Tell him about the map. You shouldn’t be asking for my help,” Bai Rong rejected him politely.

The boy’s cheeks puffed up in anger. “Will you help me or not?”

“Why can’t you let your mommy know about the map of the base? Why will someone take you away if your mommy finds out about it? Why will you die if I refuse to help you?” Bai Rong asked a string of questions.

The boy was at a loss for words. He promptly took an ashtray on the table and hit his head forcefully. Immediately, blood trickled down his forehead.

Bai Rong stood rooted to the spot and narrowed her gaze.

The boy threw the ashtray at Bai Rong’s feet and ran out while yelling, “Mommy! She hit me! Mommy!”

Bai Rong watched as he escaped without a word.

It was obviously a trap, so she wouldn’t run after him or wait foolishly until Zhou Hailan returned to question her.

Gu Mingchen is going to marry another woman. The bride is neither me nor Zhou Hailan. She’s doing this in vain.

I don’t have the time or energy to deal with such nonsense.

Bai Rong left through the back door and returned to her hotel on foot.

Half an hour later, she had just entered her room when her phone began ringing.

Seeing it was Zhou Hailan, she answered the call. “Bai Rong, why are you not in the room?” Zhou Hailan demanded anxiously. “I came back, but no one is here.”

“Your son wanted me to bring him to a place. Do you know where that is?” Bai Rong asked.

Zhou Hailan seemed puzzled. “Huh? What place?”

“He said he can’t let you know. If you find out, someone will take him away and he’ll die. I told Gu Mingchen about this,” Bai Rong answered calmly.

Zhou Hailan pressed on, “What does that mean? Did Xin say that for real? Where is he now?”

“He hit himself with an ashtray and ran out of the room. I don’t know where he is now.” Right after Bai Rong explained everything, Zhou Hailan cut the line abruptly.

Her brows snapped together as she glared at Xin, who was standing beside her. “Great. You threw me under the bus. Why did you say I can’t find out about that? And that someone will take you away and kill you? Your daddy might think I’m a villain!”

Xin gazed at Zhou Hailan fearfully. “But she refused to leave with me.”

“Run away now. When your daddy finds you, you must deny saying those words. Tell him it was Bai Rong who hit you. Be persuasive. Act to gain his sympathy when needed. You’re doing this for the sake of our family, get it?” Zhou Hailan ordered.
