You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 164

Bai Rong was frozen, refusing to look at the screen. “Don’t you have subordinates who can do this?”

They’ve already tried but they couldn’t find anything useful.” Gu Mingchen replied coldly.

“We might not find anything either.” Bai Rong objected.

Such websites were not foreign to her, for Liu Yan’s laptop was full of them. But she refused to watch it with him.

“We’ll only know after we look at it.” Gu Mingchen said as he clicked on one of the videos, his expression wooden. “All three of them watched this video.”

“Have you watched it?” Bai Rong asked, an odd feeling creeping into her heart.

Without any change in expression, he replied, “No. Now, pay attention.”

Bai Rong was at a loss for words once again.

His words made it seem like she’s the sinful one.

Bai Rong focused on the screen.

The high-definition video clearly showed a woman and two men in the middle of nowhere.

Bai Rong knew that it was work, but watching such a video with him, her mind unconsciously wandered.

She picked up a bottle of water from the table and gulped its contents down.

Gu Mingchen looked at her with that same stony expression. “Have we never watched such videos together before?”

“You never used to watch such things.” Bai Rong said softly.

“Did I use to be such a prude?” Gu Mingchen smirked in response.

Bai Rong took a while to think her answer over.

“I guess.” She mumbled placatively.

“How many times a week did we use to do it?” Gu Mingchen asked bluntly.

Bai Rong poured more water down her throat. “I don’t remember.”

She knew her own words seem rather dodgy so she added, “You used to be so busy with your job. We didn’t have much time to meet so the frequency couldn’t be measured in terms of weeks.”

“Do you have complaints to bring up?” Gu Mingchen poked teasingly.

The way he talked made her seem like the desperate one.

Bai Rong decided to shut the topic down. “Chief, shall we get back to work?”

Gu Mingchen gazed deeply into her eyes. He seemed to already have the answer.

His intense gaze made Bai Rong shift uncomfortably in her seat.

She tried to concentrate on the screen and something caught her eye. Her hand reached out to pause the video.

The scene happened to stop at where all three of them were entwined with each other.

Bai Rong deliberately ignored them.

“Did you see something?” Gu Mingchen asked, leaning in.

Bai Rong fished the photos from her bag and compared them to the image on the screen.

“The video is categorized as outdoors but this isn’t outdoor at all. It’s actually in the castle, except with a dark background, so it was mistakenly perceived as nighttime. Take a look.” Bai Rong zoomed into a part of the screen and managed to pick out the definitions of the stone blocks and a white blurry spot.

They appeared in the photos as well.

“Are you trying to say that they recognized this castle from the video so they all went there?” Gu Mingchen questioned, frowning quizzically.

Bai Rong did not reply. She fast-forwarded the video to the end, which depicted the woman with her fingers in her mouth. She lustfully drawled, “Will you come find me? I’ll be here waiting.”

“I remember your information pack mentioned that they all logged on during their own free time. Could it be that they drove to the castle, then met with some unexpected circumstances? This woman is a lead. You should find out who she is as soon as possible.” Bai Rong suggested to him.

Gu Mingchen already had his phone to his ear. “I need you to find someone for me. I’ve already sent the photo to you. If you use facial recognition, you should be able to find out who she is soon right?”

Bai Rong waited for him to finish talking before sending the photo over via email.
