Chapter 255: Chapter 163 Romance_2

Lian Ya still smiled gently, her demeanor very pleasant as she revealed her bright white teeth, "Lawyer Duan, my boss is busy and won’t be available for a month, can you make an appointment after a month?"

The so-called phrase ’don’t strike a smiling face’ was apt here, especially since this girl’s smile was so charming, showing off her signature teeth.

Just as the saying goes, ’a strong leader has no weak soldiers’, under Zheng Tong’s leadership, which dentist at the clinic could be any less competent!

Thus, for three consecutive days, Duan Feixun was unable to exchange even a word with Zheng Tong!

She really was busy, so Duan Feixun followed her car back to her home.

Before their marriage, Duan Feixun had no knowledge of her finances.

Because, although he wasn’t exorbitantly wealthy, he wasn’t the kind to covet a woman’s possessions!

He watched as she entered the Sea View Villa, and at the moment she opened the door, Duan Feixun appeared.

Naturally, Zheng Tong would not let him in, "What now? Planning to intrude? You are a lawyer, do you know which law you’re breaking and what the consequences should be?"

"Tongtong, I was wrong about what happened that night! But, can you give me a chance to explain?" Duan Feixun immediately said, "Besides, we’re married, this can’t be treated as an illegal intrusion, the police won’t concern themselves with this!"

Zheng Tong gazed at him, "I wasn’t angry about that night! I saved you because you saved me once before, and now we’re even! Alright, you can go now!"

"Come back home with me, okay?" Duan Feixun knew, the more casually she explained, the harder it was for him to earn her forgiveness.

"No need!" Zheng Tong said indifferently, "I enjoy living by the sea; opening the window and smelling the salty sea air."

Duan Feixun watched her, "Then can I move in and live with you?"

"No!" Zheng Tong flatly rejected him.

After she spoke, she planned to enter the door, but Duan Feixun quickly said, "Nothing happened between me and Yu Ke that night. She called me over because her home’s plumbing was broken, and her parents were not at home! So I went, but I swear, there was nothing else between us, she is just an employee at my law firm."

"I’ve said, don’t bother to explain this to me!" Zheng Tong replied in a very serene tone, "We live our lives separately, feel free to be with whomever you like."

Zheng Tong then went inside the room and locked Duan Feixun out.

Duan Feixun had no choice but to go find Bei Ran.

Just off work, Bei Ran saw Duan Feixun waiting for her downstairs and she walked past him without acknowledgment.

Duan Feixun: "..."

At this point, he could only seek help from Gu Qingchen: "My wife refuses to speak to me!"

"You forgot your status as a married man, staying overnight at another woman’s place and then trying to hide it afterward, that’s a serious offense," Gu Qingchen clearly sided with Bei Ran.

Duan Feixun anxiously said, "But, really nothing happened between us! I’m not the kind of man who lives impulsively, I just went to fix the plumbing!"

At this time, Bei Ran and Gu Qingchen were taking a stroll by the lakeside. Hearing Duan Feixun calling Gu Qingchen for help, Bei Ran took over the phone and said, "Firstly, as a lawyer, staying overnight with another woman while married is knowingly breaking the law; secondly, as Zheng Tong’s husband, how could you, a man in his thirties, claim to be oblivious to Yu Ke’s feelings towards you? If so, you’ve been a fool! Third, after the event, you did not come clean immediately, instead only revealing the truth when Zheng Tong wholeheartedly assisted you, no woman would forgive such an act! You needn’t seek Qingchen for advice! We’re having a walk by the lake now, don’t disturb our private time!"

After speaking, Bei Ran hung up the phone.

In the autumn night, the tranquil surface of the lake mirrored the dazzling starry sky above.

The deep blue sky was equally serene, devoid of the moon’s silhouette; the tiny stars were like scattered diamonds against the dark blue backdrop.

More beautiful than the sky were two lovers in the night.

Gu Qingchen lowered his head, gazing at Bei Ran. He always felt that she was like a clear lake: sometimes deep, but always transparent.

"Still angry about Feixun’s situation?" he asked her softly.

Bei Ran sighed lightly. "Getting angry won’t help. What matters is how Sister Zheng thinks!"

"Zheng Tong is probably starting to care about Feixun. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be angry!" Gu Qingchen analyzed, "Actually, this is a good sign! It proves that the two of them won’t break up!"

Bei Ran snorted softly: "But forgiving such a man is not going to be easy!"

Gu Qingchen held her delicate shoulders with both hands: "Let them deal with it! We can just walk by the lake under the starry sky."

"Sure!" Bei Ran took his hand: "I wouldn’t have guessed, but you can be quite romantic!"

Gu Qingchen had not expected that in his life, there would be someone accompanying him to walk under the starlit sky by the lakeside, watching the mist rising gradually.

"Do you know what romance is?" Gu Qingchen turned his head and glanced at her.

Bei Ran gazed intently: "Romance is just romance, what else could it mean?"

At this moment, Gu Qingchen curved his lips, a devilish smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Romance is you acting wild... and me moving slowly..."

Bei Ran blushed, looking at the man under the starlight, who was clearly over thirty yet still so frivolous!

In his mature moments, his penetrating eyes were full of life experience, intense emotions, and a blazing flame.

When he was wickedly charming, those expressive eyes seemed like the most captivating blackberries, making one feel loved when gazed upon.

"I can’t believe Doctor Gu can be so informal!" Bei Ran really liked his eyes, truly a devastatingly attractive man!

Of course, this side of him was for her eyes only!

He was serious when he needed to be, like during work.

And not so serious when he shouldn’t be, like when he was with the woman he loved.

Gu Qingchen reached out to lift her in his arms, spinning her around a few times.

Her skirt flew in the air, like a fluttering butterfly under the starry sky, flapping its beautiful wings, only wishing to remain in the palm of his hand.

Bei Ran’s laughter echoed by the lake, causing the clear waters to ripple slightly.

"I didn’t know you were interested in solving cases!" Gu Qingchen was somewhat surprised.

"I’m a jack of all trades!" Bei Ran laughed proudly, "Feixun even suggested I become a lawyer... but why bring him up... Qingchen, this time it was really Yufeng who..."

"Zhuo Yufeng?" Gu Qingchen’s eyes narrowed, "Are you that close to him?"

"We bathed together as kids..." After saying this, seeing the man’s face change, she quickly added: "We grew up together from infancy, like big and small fish, you understand, right? It’s just sibling love, absolutely nothing else..."

Gu Qingchen felt there should be a distinction, "Big fish and small fish are close blood relatives, that’s different. You actually bathed together with him..."

"We hadn’t developed back then..." Bei Ran really shot herself in the foot, "Actually, I’m not really a jack of all trades, I have a question for you. I saw on TV, sometimes doctors punch a patient’s chest during an emergency, what does that mean?"

Gu Qingchen now didn’t have the heart to punch her chest to demonstrate, but he would quite like to bite it, and bite it hard...
