Chapter 205: Chapter 129: Love, Deep in the Marrow. _3

When the lights came on, it was Gu Qingchen’s second visit to her home.

This was a small home, a typical urban apartment building.

Seen from a distance, it looked like a pigeon cage, but it was these units that lit up the lights of a myriad homes.

Gu Qingchen’s first visit was when Bei Ran fell ill, and that was when he found out she had a daughter, thinking she was Tang Baijin’s!

But at that time, he could never have imagined that the little boy who lit up her phone’s screen saver for that brief moment would turn out to be his, Gu Qingchen’s, son!

Bei Ran boiled some water, then made him a cup of tea.

After changing his shoes, Gu Qingchen then pushed open the bedroom door. Bei Ran’s room had books and a computer.

The daughter’s room, too, was a typical girl’s bedroom filled with dolls and picture storybooks.

Moreover, the color scheme was dreamily pink.

The next room was the son’s.

The moment he pushed open the son’s bedroom door, Gu Qingchen felt as though he could see his son playing in the room.

The first thing that caught his eye was the unfinished cruise ship model...

Gu Qingchen’s heart felt as though it had been harshly pricked by the tip of a needle.

The cruise ship model was something he and Bei Ran had bought together on the street; they even had a competition assembling it back at home!

Yet, before the cruise ship was completed, they divorced.

He decided she could have the house, and the belongings could be dealt with as she pleased.

She brought the cruise ship model back to her house, where the son treasured it like a precious jewel.

From the living conditions of the home they had been in, Gu Qingchen could tell they weren’t living at a high standard, or perhaps it had not been easy for the old Bei Ran to buy a cruise ship model like this.

Therefore, when dealing with the lakeside villa’s belongings, she brought home this unfinished cruise ship model.

Gu Qingchen walked into his son’s room and sat next to his small desk, watching as his son diligently pieced together the cruise ship model bit by bit...

After preparing the tea, Bei Ran brought it to the living room, only to find no sign of Gu Qingchen.

She carried the tea to her son’s room and saw him sitting quietly at his son’s desk, still and very quietly observing the unfinished cruise ship.

She didn’t disturb him!

This was a shared hobby between father and son!

It was a connection destined by fate!

Gu Qingchen had such a fondness for assembling cruise ships!

The son was the same, naturally possessing this hobby!

If it weren’t for Tang Yanran’s tampering with the DNA test report, Bei Ran thought she would have preserved the completeness of the family of four.

Even though there was a distance between loving Gu Qingchen and her, with two children as the driving force, they could have forged a happier life together.

Love can be attracted slowly.

Familial affection can also be established gradually.

But the transition of a family from wholeness to brokenness is more than just one person’s pain.

Bei Ran had put effort into preserving this complete family, but in the end, she couldn’t save the marriage from falling apart.

She placed the teacup on the table, within easy reach for Gu Qingchen.

Gu Qingchen then took up a small knife and continued working on the unfinished cruise ship.

Bei Ran didn’t disturb him either; she quietly left the room.

She left him alone to immerse himself in assembling the ship.

Returning to her room, Bei Ran received a call from Tian Xin since she’d been gone for a while.

"What’s up? Why haven’t you come over?" Tian Xin called.

Bei Ran replied softly, "Sweetheart, I can’t make it... something came up tonight, I’ll come keep you company tomorrow..."

"Are you with Gu Qingchen?" Tian Xin guessed, "I think the two of you are in deep love! What a peculiar couple you are, unable to part after divorce. If it was going to be like this, why bother in the first place..."

Bei Ran chuckled softly!

She didn’t counter Tian Xin’s words; some people, some things, are only cherished after being lost.

But fortunately, when it’s time to cherish, we are all still here.

Tian Xin, hearing no response, said, "Alright, I won’t bother you anymore! Go on with your peculiar romance!"

"Okay then, good night!" After hanging up, Bei Ran put down her phone, then opened the photo album, looking at her son’s face that strongly resembled Gu Qingchen. Not only did their appearance match, but their spirits did too, and she felt a profound sense of relief...

After browsing through the photos for a while, she thought about showing them to Gu Qingchen later.

Yet at this moment, the man was engrossed in assembling the model ship.

She knew, his purpose wasn’t just to complete the unfinished ship, but also, it was a connection between him and his son.

Even though Gu Qingchen and his son were now separated by thousands of miles, the thick family affection between father and son, along with the unfinished cruise ship, seemed to traverse the Pacific Ocean, delivering the affection the child had missed for six years.

After taking a bath and drying her hair, Bei Ran let her long hair fall down her back.

She took her phone to the doorway of her son’s room, standing at the entrance, she observed Gu Qingchen who typically loved tea, had not touched his cup at all this time.

He was still focused on assembling the cruise ship...

Bei Ran stepped forward, crouched beside him, and placing her hand on his shoulder, she softly called, "Qingchen..."

"Qingchen, our son is a broad-minded and cheerful child, he never blames anyone..." Bei Ran said softly, "Alright, take a break..."

Gu Qingchen slowly looked up to see the woman squatting beside him.

Bei Ran reached out and embraced him, knowing that his heart must be struggling...
