You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 437

Chapter 437 Take It Slow

“I’ll go back after I have my breakfast. It’ll probably take two hours,” she said softly.

Gu Mingchen hung up without saying another word. The Shadow Samurais probably told him what happened, so he should be angry since I kidnapped Xin and lied to him.

She munched on her garlic bread but realized that her appetite was ruined. She was in a small café, and there were two men sitting at the table in front of her.

“So do you know what happened?” A skinny middle-aged man asked the elderly man beside him.

“No. I thought someone was playing with firecrackers, and I yelled at them. At first, I thought it’s just some sickos pulling stupid sh*t in the middle of the night, but I realized something was off. Did you saw the policemen just now? Even the Armed Police came.”

“Yeah. I heard that the woman’s a mistress, and the wife found out, so she was almost murdered,” the thin man replied.

“Oh, I see. No wonder she can hire a family physician, housemaid, and sends her kid to the best school despite not having a job. I heard her sugar daddy is the boss of Gu Group,” a woman interjected.

“You’re kidding. The boss of Gu Group doesn’t have a wife.”

“But my son works at Gu Group, and he told me that. He said his boss is the father of the woman’s son and they look alike,” the woman added.

“That makes sense. She’s just an unemployed woman. There’s no way she would have offended anyone. There’s no need for a gunfight when a bullet through her head would have done the job. It’s probably Mr. Gu’s enemy trying to assassinate him,” the elderly man said.

Bai Rong’s appetite was completely ruined the more she listened to their conversation. That’s one heck of a preposterous rumor, but well, that’s just how rumors are. There are no rhymes nor reasons. It spreads according to the people’s interests; thus, it’s normal for a rumor to be exaggerated.

She stood up.

“You’re all wrong.” A shorty came over and looked around mischievously. “I live on the first floor, and I went out to see what was going on. Then, I heard a guy making a phone call.”

Bai Rong pulled some tissue papers and sat back down, pretending to eat her breakfast.”

“What’s the call about?” the gaunt man urged.

“I think the man said something along the lines of something was not for him to decide, and something about she must pay the price. I think he also mentioned something about his boss making the kill order. Sounds like the girl’s hunted down because of something she said.”

Bai Rong froze. That’s what Su Xuyan told me.

“What next?” the people beside him urged.

“Then, he asked the whereabouts of a woman, I think. He said he’d let the woman go, but he wants the person who called him to hold up the end of the bargain. He even said he’d kill both the woman and the caller otherwise,” the shorty added.

“That’s a lot to process. I have no idea what they’re talking about,” the gaunt man answered.
