Chapter 73: Chapter 72 DNA Test Results Are Out_2

The pivotal question is, what has provoked Mr. Tang, known for his icy exterior but passionate heart, to such a towering rage?

Tang Baijin lit a cigarette, his face etched with desolation amidst the morning breeze.

The smoke from his fingertips silently dispersed.

It was as if the smothering sorrow, dense and indissoluble, permeated this ostensibly bright yet oppressively dull summer morning.

His phone lay shattered among the bricks; Tang Baijin didn’t even glance back at it, but turned to leave instead.

"Mr. Tang..." A worker called out to him.

Tang Baijin looked back, fixing his gaze on him: "What is it?"

The worker pointed to the discarded phone: "This is your phone, isn’t it? If you don’t want it, can I have it?"

Tang Baijin did not respond immediately, not even sure himself how much force he had used to smash his phone into whatever state it was in now!

"I mean..." Seeing that Tang Baijin didn’t respond, the worker felt a bit awkward, "If you really don’t want it, Mr. Tang, I could fix it up simply and then give it to my son who’s preparing for university... Of course, if you still want to use it..."

"I don’t need it, take it!" Tang Baijin interrupted him.

The worker beamed with joy, his smile blossoming across his sun-darkened face beneath the safety helmet, and even the wrinkles between his eyebrows seemed to smooth out in the fresh morning air.

"Thank you, Mr. Tang..." The worker said immediately.

Tang Baijin walked away. This worker might be poor, but he was also happy. He had a family, a son, and the hope for his son to graduate from college and succeed.

What about him? He was draped in silks and satins, yet his soul was empty. He had no family, no children, and his only hope—Bei Ran—was now entwined in another man’s embrace, intimate and tender...

On the sink, Bei Ran’s phone automatically disconnected the call...

Bei Ran, like a soft gummy candy, snuggled into Gu Qingchen’s arms.

He was nibbling on her delicate shoulders, those tiny shoulders, utterly adorable and charming.

"Qingchen..." Bei Ran called him softly.

Gu Qingchen responded coldly: "Bei Ran, I am very angry!"

"I can explain..." Bei Ran locked eyes with his profound Aegean Sea-like gaze, "Yesterday, Xiao Yu and I were discussing what it’s like to have feelings for someone, which ended up infuriating Tang Baijin. He took me to an island, and I insisted on coming back. I said I didn’t like him anymore, so he got angry..."

Seeing that his expression was still one of anger, unsoftened in the least, she had no choice but to continue explaining: "He ripped my clothes, so on the way back, he took me to a clothing store to get a new outfit. I truly didn’t mean to be with him..."

A frosty layer coated Gu Qingchen’s handsome face: "He touched you?"

Bei Ran: "..."

"Yes..." Bei Ran’s voice trembled as well.

Sometimes, people are so strange.

She often heard from her married seniors that people marry because they don’t understand each other, and divorce because they do.

If during these four years of marriage, Gu Qingchen had used his keen insight as a doctor to live with her, she believed that nothing about her could have been hidden from him.

Fortunately, he never treated her as more than a wife in name, part of a contractual marriage. All she needed to do was to fulfill her conjugal duties and satisfy him in bed.

Other than that, he never involved himself.

Seeing the change in her expression, Gu Qingchen thought she had agreed to bear Tang Baijin’s child.

So, he became even angrier!

Because he had been sterile for six years already!

Yet this woman, still Mrs. Gu, was considering bearing another man’s child!

How could Gu Qingchen not be furious!

In an instant, Gu Qingchen was as ferocious as a wild beast, ready to devour her: "Did you agree?"

"I did not!" Bei Ran shook her head immediately.

She braced herself against the sink, and as she shook her head, her hair swung to and fro.

Bei Ran’s slender figure was almost entirely reflected in the mirror.

She was somewhat afraid and panicked.

He, on the other hand, looked perfectly dressed, at first glance a gentleman in clothes, but in truth, a wolf in clothing!

"Mrs. Gu, be good..." Gu Qingchen let out a slight sigh of relief.

Bei Ran also breathed a sigh of relief—she wasn’t afraid of Gu Qingchen finding out about her twins; she just didn’t want him to know before the DNA report came out.

If they weren’t his children, it would just add to the complications.

If they were, could they possibly avoid divorce...

Although Bei Ran was never afraid of being on her own, marriage was still an indispensable part of a woman’s life.

Moreover, if they really were a family, all four of them could be reunited and enjoy the bliss of family life together.
