Chapter 226: Chapter 145: His Little Thing... Ah_2
"Did you hear that, we are fine now!" Tian Xin said happily, "But who should we call for bail? I can’t ask my parents, or they’ll nag endlessly just like Tang Seng..."
At this moment, Song Ziyu looked towards Bei Ran and Zheng Tong: "I don’t want to alarm my parents either, but my husband is practically non-existent. If I ask him to bail me out, it’ll just give him a laugh!"
Zheng Tong’s eyes widened: "I won’t ask Duan Feixun to bail me out either, Ranran, what about you?"
Bei Ran looked at them, "You are all here because of me. I’ll find someone to bail all of us out, don’t worry!"
Zheng Tong immediately said: "You mustn’t call Gu Qingchen. He has a good relationship with Duan Feixun. If you do, Duan Feixun will definitely find out."
"Right! Cousin-in-law, you can’t call cousin." Song Ziyu quickly added, "I also don’t want him to find out."
Tian Xin then said: "How about Tang Baijin come! He definitely won’t tell people around you!"
"I don’t want to see him at this time!" Bei Ran was a person with principles, "I can’t just call him when I need him and ignore him when I don’t! Don’t worry, I’ll call my assistant, Sister Tong, you’ve met him, Bao Yazi—Wu Kang!"
"Yes, yes, yes, how did we not think of him!" Zheng Tong nodded in agreement.
So, Bei Ran called Wu Kang, and as soon as he heard she was at the police station, he rushed over anxiously.
Simultaneously, in Song Xuyao’s office.
He made a call to Gu Qingchen, whose smartphone automatically displayed the police station’s number.
Gu Qingchen picked up the call, and Song Xuyao’s voice came through: "There’s a woman named Bei Ran at the police station, coming over for bail?"
"I’ll go there now!" Gu Qingchen hung up the phone and then instructed the housekeeper, "Give the two kids a bath and put them to bed first."
"Yes, Mr. Gu!" The housekeeper immediately complied.
Gu Qingchen took his car keys and drove straight to the police station.
At the police station.
None of the four Bei Ran’s group expected that the person who came would be Gu Qingchen.
He looked towards his little thing...
The four of them exchanged glances, what was going on?
Gu Qingchen walked over, thinking there would only be two people, Bei Ran and Tian Xin, but he didn’t expect four, including his cousin Song Ziyu and old classmate Zheng Tong.
He didn’t speak but nodded at them, and after completing the procedures for all four, he said: "Alright, you can go now!"
Bei Ran took the initiative to walk up to him. She wasn’t worried about Tian Xin; Gu Qingchen didn’t know her parents.
As for whether Song Ziyu would get a lecture from this cousin of hers was uncertain.
And since Zheng Tong was now Duan Feixun’s wife, Gu Qingchen finding out meant that Duan Feixun would soon know as well.
Tian Xin, still single with no family concerns, was the first to leave.
Song Ziyu looked at Gu Qingchen, "Cousin, could you not tell my parents, please?"
"I’ll not make an exception." Gu Qingchen said imposingly as he looked at her.
"Yes!" Song Ziyu happily left.
Gu Qingchen turned to Zheng Tong, "Have Old Duan come pick you up! Also, handle the matter of those four men."
Zheng Tong, being a sharp person, understood that she couldn’t keep this from Duan Feixun, and those four very loyal men were still detained!
Duan Feixun was coming, not just in his capacity as a husband, but also as a prominent lawyer.
"Alright, I know. You and Ranran go ahead!" Zheng Tong nodded.
Gu Qingchen gazed at the silent Bei Ran, extending his large hand towards her.
Looking at the large hand so close, Bei Ran gently placed her small hand in his.
She thought he would definitely be angry.
When she acted as Mrs. Gu, she was well-behaved.
She strictly disciplined herself, never attending such gatherings.
Although she is no longer Mrs. Gu, Gu Qingchen has always had an intense possessiveness towards her, and he always told her to be good. Now that she’s being "good" at the police station, how could he not be angry?
Yet at this moment, she carefully observed his expression. He was so inscrutable that she couldn’t make out what he was really thinking.
But when she placed her icy hand into his warm, large palm, she felt the instantaneous warmth and couldn’t help wanting to get closer.
Gu Qingchen reached out to hold her cold hand and then headed outside.
He didn’t speak, but his actions demonstrated his intentions; he was willing to walk with her, through this night, and through life.
When he pulled her to his car, Bei Ran looked up and gazed at him under the night lights.
The man in the night, with his handsome features, exuded a sharp intensity, but in that intensity, his eyes were filled with tenderness for her.
"Qingchen..." Bei Ran called out to him, "Today’s incident, I didn’t handle it well..."
Gu Qingchen stared at her. By this time, she was completely sober.
Sober Bei Ran wouldn’t get into a fight, let alone appear at a police station.
If she had handled it well, Gu Qingchen wouldn’t have needed to come here at all.
Before Gu Qingchen could say anything, at this moment, Wu Kang had already run over breathlessly; he took a taxi to get here.
"Ranran, how is everything?" Wu Kang ran up, supporting himself against a tree while panting heavily, "I was so worried about you..."
"I’m fine now, you can go back!" Bei Ran looked at him.
Wu Kang also noticed Gu Qingchen and his luxury car and nodded, "Alright, I’ll sit for a bit before I leave!"
Gu Qingchen then opened the car door. Bei Ran got in, and he drove away.
Leaning against the tree, Wu Kang had hurried over here in a taxi as soon as he heard that Bei Ran was at the police station.
He sat for a while, resting for a few minutes before preparing to leave when Duan Feixun’s car also arrived.
"Lawyer Duan..." Wu Kang said in surprise, "Could it be... Doctor Zheng is also here...?"
Duan Feixun looked at him: "Why are you here?"
"Ranran called me..." Wu Kang said, "What exactly happened?"
"I’d like to know too!" Upon hearing that Zheng Tong was at the police station, Duan Feixun had rushed over urgently as well, "Could it be that the police are in pain and need his wife to pull their teeth?"
"Then why is Ranran here?" Wu Kang looked at him, "Could it be that the police are getting married and want Ranran to officiate the wedding?"
"Stop guessing, let’s go in and see!" Duan Feixun said.
The car sped through the night.
The atmosphere inside the car, however, was frozen.
Ever since Gu Qingchen came to bail out Bei Ran and the others from the police station, he hadn’t spoken a word to her.
The moment he took her hand and walked out of the police station, Bei Ran thought he still cared about her.
But had she misunderstood him?
Gu Qingchen simply drove fast, maintaining silence within the car.
Bei Ran also turned to look outside the window, watching the scenery slide backward under the streetlights.
When the car stopped at Lakefront Villa.
Both of them got out of the car, and Bei Ran returned home with him.
The children had already gone to bed. She first checked to see that her son and daughter were sleeping soundly, and then she went back to the bedroom.
Leaning on the balcony, Gu Qingchen was smoking. There were no lights on the balcony; the bedroom light shone from the doorway towards the balcony, though not brightly. The sparks at the tip of his cigarette were, in contrast, flickering distinctly, drawing attention.
Bei Ran stepped forward, joining him on the balcony. She gazed at him in the night and asked softly, "Did I cause you trouble?"
