You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 213

She had an unfulfilled wish.

Because of her desire to date Gu Mingchen, she went to Tangqian Village on an investigation mission regarding Governor Cheng’s murder, and there, Tang Xiaojiu died because of her.

Before his death, Tang Xiaojiu gave her the evidence. She promised him she would fulfill his wish and promised she wouldn’t date Gu Mingchen if she didn’t arrest the culprit behind the massacre.

Maybe I still couldn’t date Gu Mingchen because I went back on my promise. She had to carry the burden of a village worth of human lives.

The man before her was Lu Xingzhou, one of the most suspicious people she found out back then. The other was Lu Liangcheng.

Lu Liangcheng and Lu Xingzhou shared a great relationship, as Lu Liangcheng rose through the ranks thanks to Lu Xingzhou’s help.

When he was still mayor of Jin Yang City. Lu Xingzhou was already deputy secretary for the state.

Back then, Bai Rong took the CCDI test so she could look into Lu Liangcheng in Jin Yang City. Once she became an exchange supervisor, she used her connection to get into Jin Yang City’s Discipline Inspection Office.

Gu Mingchen had interfered in that matter. They could have worked together and finished the mission, but then Gu Mingchen lost his memories, and she was emotionally hurt. Since she wasn’t as powerful as Gu Mingchen, and since she couldn’t do anything much, she left A City.

She never expected the meeting with Lu Xingzhou to come in such a way.

“Hello.” Lu Xingzhou extended his hand formally. He looked stern and unapproachable.

“Hello.” Bai Rong shook his hand formally.

“Jinrong told me you know a lot about psychology, and he cheered up a lot after taking your advice.” Lu Xingzhou sized her up.

“I do have experience in that area. I’m Bai Rong. If you have any friends who work in this field in the US, they should know me.” She smiled with dignity.

Cheng Jinrong stood up. “Don’t just stand there. Take a seat. We’re friends.”

Bai Rong looked at him, and he gave her a genuine smile. She stared down and took a seat. “Tell me about your child’s condition.” She tapped the table.

“I would like to sign an agreement with you before that, Ms. Bai. The payment details will be written on it, but I’ll need to add a nondisclosure clause in it. You’ll have to pay me a million if someone finds out anything from you,” Lu Xingzhou made a ridiculous demand.

“Keeping my patient’s details confidential is what I should do. I uphold my ethics, but I’m sure we’re not the only ones who know about your son’s condition. How can you be sure that I’m the one who spreads the information, not them? If you distrust me, then there’s no need for me to be here.” She stood up.

“Mr. Lu doesn’t mean that. We know you can keep a secret. You’re being too hasty,” Cheng Jinrong said the last part gently.
