You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 112

The moment Bai Rong stepped out of the house, Su Xuyan immediately dragged her towards his car.

Out of frustration, the girl flung his hands away and yelled, “Su Xuyan! What do you think you’re doing!”

“I should be the one asking you that! For the past two months, you’ve locked yourself in your room to study and even gave up your profession and career just to enter the CCDI. Who do you want to inspect huh?”

“What are you so scared of? I’m not going to inspect you anyway.” Bai Rong’s eyes were chilly as she answered.

“Don’t tell me you want to inspect Su Zheng?”

Bai Rong turned her face away at his guess.

“Heh!” Su Xuyan scoffed while leaning lazily on his car. “What a great ambition you have, Bai Rong. But don’t you know that’s a hopelessly feeble effort? Su Zheng is one of the leaders within the CCDI. Just a word from him and you’ll be done for. Plus, given his rank, you won’t be able to inspect him with your current rank as a mere township officer. Don’t be foolish; both Su Zheng and Gu Tianhang are the unmovable pillars within the Commission.” Su Xuyan reminded her.

“I don’t have to report to you whatever I’m thinking about or intending to do.” When Bai Rong turned to leave, Su Xuyan wrapped his hands on the back of her head and pulled the girl closer to him. Once again, he dived down for her lips.

Infuriated, Bai Rong gave her ex-husband a hard slap.

“I’m telling you; I will definitely succeed.” The girl replied confidently and walked away.

Su Xuyan rubbed the sides of his lips, his eyes squinting at the departing girl with a deep frown.

Although it was just a light brush on Bai Rong’s lips, it was enough to ignite the strong feelings of yearning lust within the man.

He was desperate to sleep with her.

So now Bai Rong is the only one who can awaken the reaction of lust in me huh?

Bai Rong arrived at the CCDI and reapplied her lipstick in the toilet.

There were not many people in the office. The director introduced her to the staff and settled her entry procedures before swearing her in as a member of the Commission.

Once she was done, Bai Rong wasted no time and headed for the director’s office.

“What’s the matter?” The director looked at her curiously.

“I remember that the CCDI stipulates intercity and interprovincial inspection of the prosecutor’s offices of other cities and provinces.” Bai Rong inquired.

“Yes, there is indeed such a rule to prevent the local government officials from covering up for each other.” The director nodded in agreement.

“I’d like to be posted to Jinyang City.” Bai Rong requested resolutely.

The director eyed her judgingly before asking in doubt, “You’ve got wind of anything there?”

Bai Rong nodded. “Yes, I do. If I manage to solve the case there, it’ll contribute to your achievements, right?”

“I’m not the only one who can decide on where to dispatch you. I need to apply to the higher ups for that. Plus, assigning our officers to a specific city or province would requiire detailed reasons and explanations. Can you provide me with that?”

“Apply to whom? Su Zheng?” Bai Rong was unclear of such procedures.

“Oh, that’s not necessary. I just have to apply from the officer in charge of assignments and postings within the CCDI.”

“Does that mean that as long as that officer approves my application, I’ll be able to go straight to Jin Yang City?” Bai Rong asked.

“That’s the procedure according to the rules. But that officer is of the same rank as your father. I think he might not approve your request easily because of who your father is.” The director had let it out that he was aware of the woman’s identity.

“Let me make a call first.” Bai Rong bowed slightly and went out of the office.

Last time, she had read a book about a young man whose way was blocked by a huge rock. No matter how hard he tried to push it, crush it or shove it, the rock remained rooted to the ground.

Finally, he ran out of ideas on moving it himself and asked for every passerby’s help instead.

With the help of many, this rock was finally moved out of his way.

The moral of the story was to always ask for help whenever you couldn’t solve a problem on your own. The person might or might not be of good help, but as long you asked for it, there would be hope in solving the problem.

Bai Rong decided to make a call to Song Xiyu. Back then, the woman offered to make it up to her, which the girl had rejected.

Sometimes, honor and dignity meant nothing in light of the harsh reality.

Song Xiyu was surprised to receive Bai Rong’s call. After all, she had been missing for the past 2 months.

After some investigation, the woman found out that Bai Rong had been staying at Xing Bachuan’s house. Only then did she know that the girl was the daughter of Xing Bachuan’s ex-wife. Following that revelation, the woman decided to continue investigating Bai Rong’s past.

“Hello.” Song Xiyu greeted in her usual polite tone.

“You’ve told me before that I can ask for your help in the future. Does that still count now?” Bai Rong asked with uncertainty.

“If it’s within my power.” Song Xiyu promised.

“I’m now working at the CCDI and I want to be posted to Jin Yang City. However, it requires the approval of the officer in charge of assignments and postings within the CCDI. Can you help me with that?” Bai Rong requested flatly.

“Sure, no problem. Just a small matter for me. I’ll give you a call once I’m done this evening.” Song Xiyu agreed readily.

“Thank you.” Bai Rong was about to hang up when she heard the voice from the other end.

“Did Mingchen contact you?” Song Xiyu asked immediately.

Bai Rong felt her heart aching at his name. The girl lowered her eyelids and replied calmly, “He will never contact me. Don’t worry, Mrs. Gu.”

“He must’ve known that we were the ones who kidnapped you. He has been refusing to talk to us and doesn’t pick up our calls. He even refused to stay at home! Tianhang went all the way to the military base to look for him, yet he still refused to see him! I’ve heard that he embarked on another dangerous mission; he’s trying to work himself to death!” Song Xiyu said in distress.

The soreness within Bai Rong deepened at her words. The girl could only close her eyes and allow her tears to flow down her face soundlessly.

If Gu Mingchen were to die before she became a strong figure, she would follow him to the underworld as well.

That man was her sole motivation to forgo everything and venture into a new realm.

“Mrs. Gu, I can’t do anything about that.” Bai Rong added in her usual flat tone that lacked warmth. “I’ve no idea what you are telling me this for.”

“I’m sorry for losing my composure. I’ll make a call now and contact you later.” Bai Rong hung up immediately after Song Xiyu finished speaking.

The woman was taken aback by the girl’s rudeness. Upon a moment’s consideration though, the woman could understand why she did that. After all, she was the one who had harmed Bai Rong so severely, so what attitude could she expect from the traumatized girl?

Song Xiyu was a reliable person. Bai Rong received her call at 11 a.m..

“They’ve agreed. You can ask your director to apply now and you can get the posting confirmation by today. You can go straight to the prosecutor’s office in Jinyang City tomorrow.” Song Xiyu smiled as she informed.

“Thank you.” Bai Rong answered with her icy tone, as usual. After hanging up, the girl immediately headed to meet her director.

“Director, the higher ups have agreed to my request. You can proceed with my application now.” Bai Rong said in a declarative tone.

Being an experienced person in politics, the director was pretty sure that Xing Bachuan didn’t have the capabilities to get things settled that fast. He believed that Bai Rong must be backed by a much stronger figure. With that in mind, the man knew he couldn’t afford to offend this girl and applied immediately.

“I’ve contacted the director of our counterpart in Jinyang City. I’ll let my subordinates book your air ticket and tomorrow the people from that side will meet you once you arrive. Report back immediately if you have any findings and I’ll try my best to cooperate.” The director said in a polite manner.

Bai Rong nodded and went out of the office coolly.

That was her second step to success.

From now onwards, every step she took would bring her closer to Gu Mingchen!
