Chapter 238: Chapter 154: Little One, Don’t You Know My Intentions?

Despite being a divorced wife!

However, Gu Qingchen’s affection clearly shows that he is serious.

Jiang Huixiong reached out and gently shook hands with Bei Ran: "Which industry do you work in?"

"I’m a wedding planner at Earth Wedding Company." Bei Ran was gracious and elegant in her response.

Jiang Huixiong nodded: "I have a favor to ask of you, to plan a beautiful wedding for you and Qingchen."

Bei Ran blushed, then turned to look at Gu Qingchen.

In front of others, she naturally wanted to give him face. Although they were divorced, there was still a tenderness growing between them.

It was at this moment that Gu Qingchen agreed: "I’ll leave it to you to handle!"

Bei Ran: "..."

Obviously, this man was doing it on purpose. Was he even using his superiors now?

Bei Ran still had Gu Qingchen’s lawsuit on her mind, so she changed the subject, thinking Jiang Huixiong was here for that reason too.

So she said, "Director, is your visit about..."

Jiang Huixiong immediately replied: "I almost forgot in my excitement, right, to discuss serious matters. Qingchen, regarding the lawsuit, we have hired a lawyer. You and Junyi shouldn’t be affected by it, just carry on with what you need to do."

Yang Junyi then said, "I told the director that it could be mentioned over the phone, but he insisted on coming personally."

Jiang Huixiong cheerfully said: "I did the right thing by coming, right? Otherwise how would I have known about this kid getting married!"

Yang Junyi’s phone rang, "There’s an emergency, Director, Qingchen, I have to go now..."

"Go ahead!" said Gu Qingchen promptly: "I’m coming, too!"

He nodded at Bei Ran.

Bei Ran watched him leave.

Jiang Huixiong turned to Bei Ran, "Xiao Bei, understand that being a doctor can be very busy! Also, Qingchen is not good at expressing himself, so please be patient with him."

"Director, I understand." Bei Ran nodded, "I should be going too!"

After saying goodbye to Jiang Huixiong, Bei Ran left and was about to drive off when she remembered Wu Kang had taken the car.

Checking the time, Bei Ran realized it was almost time to pick up the children from school, so she went straight there instead.

At this moment, Wu Kang called: "Ran Jie, I have some news!"

After picking up the children from school and bringing them home, Wu Kang said: "Ran Jie, I’ve gathered some information about Doctor Gu’s lawsuit."

"Let’s hear it!" Bei Ran sat with him by the lake, brewed a pot of tea, and asked Wu Kang to sit down.

Wu Kang looked at the sunset over the lake. The autumn weather was crisp, the sky a deep blue, reflected in the still waters of the lake like a blue backdrop.

Occasionally, a gentle breeze would cause ripples on the calm surface, spreading them like emotions stirred in the heart.

"What a beautiful view!" exclaimed Wu Kang, "No wonder President Pan holds Doctor Gu in high regard! How expensive must the houses in this area be!"

Bei Ran held up a finger, "Roughly this figure!"

"Over ten million!" Wu Kang marveled, "But it makes sense; for such a beautiful time and place, money is no object."

"You haven’t gotten to the point yet!" Bei Ran glanced at him, "What news do you have?"

Wu Kang said promptly: "Right, about that boy in the wheelchair, he used to be very ambitious. He’s a young man who draws comics online, and recently he fell in love with a girl who’s the daughter of a wealthy family. Consequently, he developed an inferiority complex, feeling unworthy of the girl..."

"So it’s a love-induced trouble!" sighed Bei Ran, "But he shouldn’t have such a distorted mentality, and then sue Qingchen, Junyi, and the hospital!"

Wu Kang explained: "He never thought of suing at first, but his father is a gambler who recently lost money. Thinking he could make some money this way, he told his son that with the money, he could start his own comic company and be the boss. That way, the girl would be with him. In reality, it was the father who wanted the money..."

Bei Ran took a sip of tea: "So it turns out that even family affection can be so twisted and horrifying!"

"It’s not always the case!" Wu Kang quickly added, "Like my dad and my mom, they wouldn’t have such thoughts towards me!"

Bei Ran checked her watch: "There’s still time, let’s meet with that rich young lady first."

"Let me have another sip of tea," Wu Kang took a drink and said, "This tea is so fragrant! When can I live such a life, with a big house to live in, and fine tea to drink..."

"Stop dreaming!" Bei Ran gave him the car keys, "Here, drive a nice car!"

Wu Kang drove while Bei Ran sat in the car, heading to an art gallery together.

Just in time, Shen Ya came out from the art gallery.

"Miss Shen, hello!" Bei Ran approached, "I’m Bei Ran, the planner and host from Earth Wedding Company. Can we talk?"

Shen Ya was a very simple girl, "Miss Bei, you are from the wedding company, did Zhu Qi ask you to come?"

Bei Ran smiled and thus, the two sat down in the café.

"Do you like Zhu Qi?" Bei Ran gazed at her intently.

"I like him!" Shen Ya smiled, "He is just like me, with a simple mind, and I like fine arts, he likes comics, we have common hobbies!"

Bei Ran nodded, "Indeed, it’s as beautiful as a fairy tale, but, is this just about you two? Do your family members know? Does Zhu Qi’s family know?"

The smile disappeared from Shen Ya’s face, even though she was simple, she understood that this kind of love wasn’t well-received, and that her family would not agree to it.

Therefore, she had yet to bring Zhu Qi home to meet her family!

Bei Ran softly said, "Do you know what Zhu Qi has done?"

Shen Ya shook her head.

"Zhu Qi sued the doctor and the hospital that performed the surgery on him!" Bei Ran said, "Miss Shen, you are sensible and should know, that infection after surgery necessitates amputation, and he claimed it was due to the doctor’s tardiness. Moreover, that car accident was also an accident, though we all feel sorry, it’s not a reason for him to sue the doctor and the hospital! Additionally, I hope he understands that even if he sues the doctor and the hospital, he won’t win the case."

Shen Ya listened, her eyes brimming with tears.

She was a sensible person; the wounds of the past were already in the past.

And the life ahead was what mattered most.

She could soothe his wounds, but the gap between them was too wide.

"Miss Bei, I can’t help you with anything!" Shen Ya prepared to stand up, "I’m sorry!"

"Miss Shen..." Bei Ran stopped her, "Can you tell me, does Zhu Qi have any wishes?"

Shen Ya turned back, "He once told me he wished to stand on the mountaintop, overlooking the scenery of the city, and to capture it on his canvas..."

After Shen Ya left, Wu Kang said, "Ran Sister, I thought you came here to play matchmaker!"

Bei Ran sighed, "Play matchmaker? Right now, I only want Qingchen to avoid being harmed in reputation by the lawsuit."

"Then I’ll go see Zhu Qi right now!" Wu Kang stood up.

Bei Ran glanced at her wristwatch, "Go tomorrow! Today I’m going home to have dinner with the kids!"

She still didn’t know if Gu Qingchen was still busy. Having the two children at home without an adult was not good either.

"Okay, I’ll drive you home!" Wu Kang went to get the car.

Bei Ran got home and after having dinner with the children, each went off to play while she pondered about Zhu Qi’s case.

That evening, when Gu Qingchen came back, the children were already asleep.

He changed his shoes and went upstairs.

In the past, when he came home late, there was always a light in the room, and a woman waiting for him.

But now, there was also a pair of children at home!

Gu Qingchen went to check on the children; both were sleeping soundly, especially the little one, with a smile on the lips.

He returned to the room, to find Bei Ran sitting on the sofa using her laptop.

"How many times have I told you, you can’t sit like that when you use the computer, do you want to get cervical spine problems?" Gu Qingchen reached out for her laptop.

Seeing him return, Bei Ran looked up at him, "So late? Are you hungry?"

"Hungry..." Gu Qingchen’s lips curved into a mischievous smile.

Bei Ran looked at him, "You, this person..."

Gu Qingchen kissed her hair, while Bei Ran said, "Remember, Qingchen, I am your ex-wife!"

Today she introduced herself to the dean as his wife!

Gu Qingchen watched as she jumped out of his embrace, he stared at her, "What, you’re unwilling to be my wife?"

"Unwilling or not?" Bei Ran huffed lightly, "That depends on whether you even asked for my opinion?"

He really was domineering!

Just decided like this that the ex-wife would become the wife again?

Was Bei Ran someone to be so easily manipulated and molded?

Gu Qingchen reached out to embrace her, "Little thing, don’t you know my feelings for you?"
