You Owe Me, My Love

You Owe Me, My Love Chapter 186

“Gu Mingchen, we should let go of each other.” Bai Rong said softly.

The man parked his car by the roadside. Feeling irritated, he said, “You are the one who wanted to get married but you are also the one who wants us to let each other off. What exactly do you want?”

“Will you agree to anything that I want?” She threw the question back to him.

The man was losing his patience and said resolutely, “Yes, we will do whatever you want!”

“Then let’s let each other off.”

“Sure.” He replied decisively and looked ahead, before starting the car engine and drove off again.

Bai Rong knew that he meant it.

But she had no regrets as she saw his furrowed brows. It was not with complete conviction and sincerity when he said that he wanted to marry her. So, they should just let it be.

Gu Mingchen sent her to the train station and as he watched the woman walk in, his eyes darkened.

He took out a cigarette from the glove compartment and lit it. As he inhaled and exhaled, the thick smoke surrounded his masculine features.

Half an hour later, he made a call to Lieutenant Song. “Make a formal request to the Research Institute of Psychology for a psychologist to carry out a detailed assessment on the emotional qualities of the soldiers; specifically request for Bai Rong.”

“Yes, chief. I will handle that immediately.”

Gu Mingchen threw his phone onto the passenger seat after he hung up and drove away from the train station.

Bai Rong was going to have a good sleep in the hotel room after returning to A City when Liu Yan called. “Rong, when are you coming back? I miss you so much!”

The woman smiled and replied, “I think we can read each other’s minds. I just came back and I’m staying in the hotel now.”

“That’s great! Let’s have dinner together tonight. You know, that man I was dating was also a jerk. He dumped me. Am I really that bad that no one is willing to date me?” Liu Yan felt dispirited.

“Let me give you a treat tonight to cheer you up. Shall we go to the seafood restaurant that we used to go to last time?”

“That restaurant has already closed down for two years.”

“Oh, is it?” For some unknown reason, Bai Rong felt sad when she heard that.

From what she recalled, that seafood restaurant had good business. The owner was very welcoming and the food was good.

“Yeah, takeaway has grown to become the norm these two years. More and more people are choosing to order delivery from home. That restaurant occupied a big storefront and the rental was too high for the owner to sustain the business. I know of another restaurant that is not bad. There is a ladies’ club in that area that I have been wanting to go but couldn’t find anyone to go with. You can accompany me there tonight, it’s my treat.” Liu Yan explained.

“Ladies’ club?” Bai Rong thought of Su Wanning and said, “The men there are not clean. Don’t try your luck.”

“I’m not that rich and stupid enough to pay to get men. I just want to take a look and maybe go for a spa treatment.”

“Oh, then that’s OK. I am staying at the Sheraton near A University. Call me when you reach.”

Liu Yan reached the hotel half an hour later.

“It would take at least one hour for you to travel here from the military base. How did you get here so fast?” Bai Rong was quite shocked.

“Heh. When the cat’s away, the mice will play. I wasn’t very busy today and it’s my off day tomorrow, so I knocked off earlier. When I called you just now, I was already in the car. Come, I’ll bring you to eat some seafood.” Liu Yan chuckled as she said.

Bai Rong got into her friend’s car and put on her seat belt.

“What kind of person is Mu Xiaosheng from your institute?” Liu Yan inquired.

“He’s very charismatic and unworldly, popular among women and fancies many women too. He had a brief marriage and is currently an eligible bachelor who is unlikely to settle down any time before forty. Why are you asking? Don’t tell me you have taken an interest in him?” Bai Rong looked at Liu Yan worriedly.

“I must be getting desperate. If it was four years ago when I was still at the prime of my youth, I would ask all men to scram to one side. But I’m approaching thirty soon. Even if I’m not worried, my parents nag at me every time I go home. It’s getting on my nerves.” Liu Yan let out a sigh.

“You are only twenty-seven; there are still three more years to reaching thirty. You don’t have to be in such a rush.” Bai Rong gave her two cents.

“That was the kind of mindset I used to have—to date someone for two years, then settle down and get married. But judging from the number of times I am getting dumped, I predict that I’ll still be single even

when I reach thirty. What kind of women are men interested in these days? I’m getting so speechless.” Liu Yan said, feeling irritated.

“I think you are the type of girl men would like. You’re cheerful, optimistic, bright, beautiful, gracious, filial, kind and have a good figure. By right, there should be a line of men going after you.” Bai Rong was also quite perplexed.

“I think so too! I’m also financially independent and don’t need their money. We can even finance a house together. Men these days must be blind.” Liu Yan shrugged and said, “I should just sign up for one of those dating shows to cast my net wider and increase my chances of finding someone.”

“I’m sure you will find someone. Oh! I think I saw Shen Yiyan at the singles party the other time.” Bai Rong was not able to remember clearly.

“Why was he there? Was he thinking of hitting on the babes in the military base?” Liu Yan was annoyed at the mention of him.

“Have you guys been in contact ever since that incident?” Bai Rong asked casually.

“For what? My first time was ruined by him. He was so reckless and forceful that I had such a bad time. I would never have let him off if he was not drugged. If I’m still a virgin, I might be of higher value now. Urgh, let’s not talk about him. It’s so annoying.” Liu Yan sped up and they reached their destination in around half an hour.

When they reached the restaurant, it was already past dinner time. The restaurant was closed for the day as it did not serve supper.

“Let’s just eat at the ladies’ club. They have food there too.” Liu Yan dragged Bai Rong towards the direction of the club.

Entry to the ladies’ club was exclusive to members only.

While Liu Yan was filling up the registration form, Bai Rong went to the restroom.

“Have you all heard? Tony is dead. His corpse was hacked into eight parts. The vicious killer even chopped off his d*ck and stuffed it into his mouth, before abandoning him at the public toilet.” One woman said. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“OMG! that’s so scary. It’s a pity though. Tony was fit and good-looking. I heard that his skills were really good too. Only diamond-level members could request for his service.” Another woman added.

“Do you guys know Mu Xiaosheng?”

Bai Rong was about to leave the restroom when someone mentioned Mu Xiaosheng’s name. She looked towards the woman who was talking.

“He was guessing that the woman who requested for Tony’s service last night could be the killer. Before the killer was caught, Mu Xiaosheng was already taken away by a group of people. When those people took him away, I happened to be there too.”

Bai Rong creased her brows tightly. “Is the Mu Xiaosheng you are referring to the psychologist?”

“Yes, that’s him. If it was done by a diamond-level member, the person must be of a certain status. Besides, the information of diamond-level members is strictly confidential. It does not bode well for him.”

Bai Rong immediately gave Gu Mingchen a call.

She was well aware of those people’s methods and Mu Xiaosheng had offended them.

When Gu Mingchen answered, he spoke in a strange tone. “You’ve changed your mind about letting yourself off so quickly?”

The woman was speechless.
