Chapter 58: Chapter 58: His Doting on Her Has Already Surpassed All Limits

In this office, just moments ago, the atmosphere was imbued with tenderness and affection as he cunningly tested her true feelings.

She thought their souls were colliding and sparking, but fate had ordained that she was not the rib meant for his life.

So, it was shockingly she who discovered the hidden wedding ring he kept.

If not for her longing for his affection, how would she have ended up sitting in his office chair?

She thought she shouldn’t have any emotions; whom his heart harbored, which woman had once entered his life, none of it should matter to Bei Ran.

Yet, there was a bitterness in her heart, like a bitter fruit slowly dissolving, spreading from within her heart, extending through her veins to every limb, reaching every inch of her body.

Of course, this diamond ring also reminded her that she should not covet someone who didn’t belong to her.

Bei Ran stood up and walked towards the exit.

She wanted to leave this place; she didn’t want to see the diamond ring meant for someone else in Gu Qingchen’s drawer.

She knew well the pain of deep love, yet she was falling deeper step by step.

No—

She must not succumb to it!

Bei Ran, feeling the hot summer wind outside, found her heart growing even more agitated.

She went to a bar, ordered a dozen beers, and then poured them down her throat...

She was not one to indulge!

She had always been extremely cautious, like walking on thin ice!

Mrs. Gu, seemingly flawless and invulnerable, also harbored her most fragile spots deep within her heart!

But in the end, when the contract expired, Gu Qingchen, why couldn’t you just straightforwardly give her a divorce certificate?

Bei Ran didn’t know how long she had been drinking; she heard her phone ringing vaguely, picked it up, and slurred, "Hello..."

"Where are you?" Gu Qingchen’s voice came anxiously.

"I’m drinking..." Bei Ran laughed, indulging for once, just this once, and from then on, she would strive to live well!

There would never again be a man named Gu Qingchen in her life; she would forget him just as she had forgotten Tang Baijin!

"I’ll hang up now..." She ended the call and downed another beer!

Bei Ran didn’t know how much she had drunk; when she left, she was staggering, feeling like she was walking on clouds, almost able to touch the raindrops with her hand.

The sky, unbeknownst to her, had begun to rain.

Looking up, who was it that wouldn’t let her get wet, holding a large black umbrella for her?

Bei Ran widened her eyes in surprise; it was Gu Qingchen. How did he find her here?

"When I called you, you didn’t hang up, and I heard this place," Gu Qingchen said, holding a large black umbrella, gazing at her flushed cheeks.

"I didn’t hang up?" Bei Ran was heartbroken, "Gu Qingchen, that’s going to cost a lot in phone bills! You owe me..."

"Still so money-minded even when drunk?" Gu Qingchen seemed helpless but spoke with deep affection, "Why did you drink so much?"
