Can We Say No to Divorce?
Chapter 132 - 91: Wanting Her to be the Mistress of the Gu Family

Chapter 132: Chapter 91: Wanting Her to be the Mistress of the Gu Family

Gu Qingchen naturally noticed Bei Ran’s beauty, which possessed a lustrous majesty, her every move showcasing the characteristics of Eastern women.

However, Gu Qingchen turned to Fang Zimo, "You really are idle, even knowing the language of violets?"

It seems that in the years since graduation, not only is the treatment different between private and public hospitals, but even the things one learns during leisure time are different.

"Old Gu, you can’t focus solely on medicine. You’re getting on in years; you should have a wife and children by now!" Fang Zimo actually advised earnestly and sincerely.

Gu Qingchen glared at Fang Zimo. Weren’t they about the same age? If he was getting on in years, was Fang Zimo any younger?

"Well... I’m better-looking..." Fang Zimo said, "So I look a lot younger than you..."

Hence, the relatives and friends who were there to drink, upon hearing this sentence, also felt speechless...

Bei Ran approached them, "Doctor Fang, Doctor Gu, welcome, please come in..."

"Miss Bei looks so beautiful today..." Fang Zimo complimented.

"I’m merely an accompaniment to the bride," Bei Ran replied with a light smile.

Fang Zimo nudged Gu Qingchen with his elbow, hinting at him to seize the opportunity. He said, "I have some acquaintances over there, and I’m going to greet them first."

"Of course, Doctor Fang, please!" Bei Ran said with a smile.

Gu Qingchen saw that she was still wearing four-inch-heels and couldn’t help frowning slightly, "Does your ankle still hurt?"

"Not anymore." Bei Ran gazed at him.

"Why do you insist on wearing high-heels?" Gu Qingchen asked with some displeasure, "Even with heels on, you’re still shorter than me!"

Bei Ran was also speechless. Was she wearing high heels to compete in height with him?

"This is one of the ways women express beauty, Doctor Gu..." Bei Ran’s eyes widened, "If you don’t understand that, then I can’t help you."

After finishing her statement, Bei Ran couldn’t be bothered with him anymore, as she had other guests to attend to.

"Bei Ran..." Gu Qingchen called out to her.

Seeing the red envelope from Fang Zimo in his hand, Bei Ran immediately understood why he called her. In the past, whenever he had friends with celebrations to attend, she was the one who prepared the red envelopes.

Gu Qingchen asked in a low voice, "How much should I enclose?"

"You’ve never looked before?" Bei Ran’s eyes widened even more, "If I had known, instead of sealing twenty thousand, I would just seal two hundred, and pocket the remaining eighteen thousand."

"Money-grubber!" Gu Qingchen sighed helplessly.

Bei Ran took his red envelope, "Bring out the money!"

Gu Qingchen handed her his wallet. Bei Ran opened it to see a few renminbi notes inside. She picked them up and said, "Doctor Fang sealed a ten thousand yuan red envelope, you two being old classmates, are you really going to enclose just a few hundred yuan? Do you want people to laugh you to death?"

"This is a card, you go withdraw!" Gu Qingchen pointed to the first card on top of his wallet.

Bei Ran knew that this card was his salary card. When they were still husband and wife, he had given it to her to manage and use for household expenses such as water, electricity, property management fees, food, and other miscellaneous social expenditures.

After the divorce, Bei Ran naturally returned it to him.

"Gu Qingchen, you go yourself!" Bei Ran said angrily, seeing him ordering her around.

Gu Qingchen said softly, "I don’t remember the password."

Bei Ran glared at him!

Gu Qingchen truly didn’t remember the password. Why would he remember a card he never used in four years?

In reality, the four years of marriage were like a gently flowing stream; though void of significant events, such minor incidents, seeming inadvertent, were yet filled with deep affection.

It’s just that during the marriage, neither felt it, nor did they expect that the daily companionship would turn into a habit of coexistence.

"I forgot it too!" Bei Ran said stubbornly.

Gu Qingchen sighed, "Forget it, just seal five hundred yuan then!"

Bei Ran looked at him as if he were an alien, "Gu Qingchen, you might as well seal two hundred fifty!"

Of course, this was implying that he was a fool!

A man skilled in medicine, who really didn’t understand human relationships.

An old classmate was getting married, and he could seal five hundred yuan!

Bei Ran took the card from his hand and then walked toward the elevator. Gu Qingchen followed behind her, but Bei Ran didn’t notice the calculating smile at the corner of his lips.

The two entered the elevator together, a handsome man and beautiful woman coming in, with the man in a suit looking tall and imposing, and the woman in a cheongsam appearing graceful and radiant.

Many people were also inside the elevator, and they all turned their gaze upon these two.

But Bei Ran and he stood apart, with her leaning against the inner corner.

Gu Qingchen didn’t press forward either. He knew her well; pushing too hard could make it easier for her to see through his intentions.

If he pretended to be nonchalant, it was actually to make her let down her guard.

However, Bei Ran did not expect that when the elevator became crowded, she would encounter a pervert...

She wore high heels, and to say her feet weren’t tired would definitely be a lie.

But in front of Gu Qingchen, she could not let him look down on her!

So, she leaned against the elevator wall.

A seemingly gentle man was pressing against the side of her leg with his body, rubbing up and down against it.

Bei Ran frowned, trying to avoid him, but there was no escape.

Gu Qingchen quickly broke through the crowd and pulled Bei Ran into his embrace,

"You bastard, you actually dared to molest a woman in the elevator!" Gu Qingchen punched him without hesitation!

The women in the elevator immediately shrieked, all squeezing towards the corner, wanting to distance themselves more from this sleazy man.

They whispered to each other: "My friend was also targeted by that guy..."

"So it’s true, finally caught him today..."

"What a pervert... drag this man out..."

"It would be best to call the police and arrest him..."

At that moment, the elevator "dinged" and opened, and all the women poured out frantically, nearly tripping at the entrance.

Only Gu Qingchen, Bei Ran, and the sleazy man were left in the elevator. Bei Ran’s head was pressed into Gu Qingchen’s chest, and he was about to go forward to teach the sleazy man a lesson.

"Okay, let’s go withdraw money!" Bei Ran tugged at his sleeve.

Gu Qingchen’s piercing gaze stared down the sleazy man fiercely before he finally left with Bei Ran.

Bei Ran walked out of the hotel, she saw a clothing store across the street, "I want to change clothes."

"Let’s go!" Gu Qingchen went with her.

She quickly chose a dress similar to her original qipao, changed from inside to out, and threw the old clothes into the trash can.

Gu Qingchen gazed at her: "Will this leave a psychological shadow?"

After all, he had seen such cases before; he saw she had completely changed clothes.

"Even if it does, it’s your fault! You asked me to withdraw money for you!" Bei Ran said irritably.

Gu Qingchen took hold of her shoulders: "If you feel like you’ve got a psychological shadow, tell me, I can treat you."

Bei Ran looked at him: "Aren’t you a surgeon? Are you playing psychologist now?"

"I know a little!" Gu Qingchen said seriously.

"Then you might as well make me seriously ill!" Bei Ran sharply retorted.

She originally had no psychological shadow, but after being ’treated’ by this man who knew little, she might end up beyond medical help.

Gu Qingchen: "..."

Together, they arrived at an ATM. Bei Ran took her card, withdrew money, then wrote the PIN on the back of the card for him: "Remember this! If you forget, just look at the back."

"If this card gets lost, others could use the password to withdraw money!" Gu Qingchen looked at her.

What Doctor Gu meant was, it would be safer to keep it with Bei Ran!

He completely trusted her!

Bei Ran pointed to the password on the back: "Can you figure it out in one glance?"

Gu Qingchen saw: "These are the letters for numbers, in an ascending order, taking only one letter from each number. That is, the first digit of the password is the first letter of the number, the second digit is the second letter of the number, and so on. I get it, but so will others!"

"Do you think everyone has your level of intelligence to understand at a glance?" Bei Ran stuffed the card into his hands. "Let’s go, I still have to host a wedding. You should prepare a red envelope of ten thousand as well!"

"Hmm, whatever you say goes!" Gu Qingchen assumed the posture of the master of the house.

Bei Ran couldn’t be bothered to argue with him; she was no longer the mistress of the Gu Family!

Such matters, he should find someone else to handle in the future!

As the two were heading back to the hotel, Bei Ran caught sight of a familiar figure from afar. Her steps halted, and as if all the blood in her body had frozen, she was momentarily unable to move.

"Bei Ran..." Seeing her looking unwell, Gu Qingchen gazed at her intently.

Her face turned pale in an instant, and even her blood started to run cold.

Gu Qingchen supported her with one hand: "Where does it hurt? If you’re not feeling well, don’t be stubborn. The world will keep on turning without you!"
