Gu Qingchen always spoke to his relatives in a very gentle and intimate tone. She had heard him talking to Song Ziyu; toward others, he was always cold and distant.
"I have Ziyu to pick up!" Song Xiaoyin patted Song Ziyu’s hand and then took out a gift box: "Ziyu, I didn’t co back in ti for your last wedding, so here’s a belated wedding gift for you."
"Thank you, Auntie!" Song Ziyu accepted it. Although her marriage was not ideal, having relatives who cared about and loved her, she was still happy.
"What about you?" Song Xiaoyin looked at her son, "Don’t just busy yourself working day and night at the hospital. You et fewer people that way. You’re already in your thirties. It’s about ti you beca a father; why not find a woman to settle down and start a life with?"
Gu Qingchen served her so food: "Mom, don’t worry about these things, it’ll make you age faster..."
"I am old, Qingchen, but you are still young..." Song Xiaoyin said. "How can you live alone? How can I be at peace knowing you’re living alone..."
Bei Ran quietly ate her al while Song Ziyu gave her aningful glances, suggesting that Song Xiaoyin was very satisfied with her as a daughter-in-law. As long as Bei Ran tried hard, winning over Gu Qingchen would not be difficult!
Bei Ran pretended not to notice and decided to beco an invisible person with Gu Qingchen here.
"Bei Ran, eat so more!" Song Xiaoyin suddenly called her na.
Bei Ran looked at her and said, "Auntie, I’m full!"
Auntie? Gu Qingchen glanced at her. She followed Song Ziyu’s lead in addressing her!
Song Xiaoyin imdiately said: "Qingchen, you’re off work now, why not go shopping with Bei Ran?"
It was so apparent that she wanted to set the two of them up; how could Bei Ran not understand?
"I need to visit a sick grandma at the hospital," Bei Ran quickly said.
Gu Qingchen promptly said: "I have a surgery early tomorrow. I need to rest tonight."
Song Xiaoyin: "..."
Song Ziyu: "..."
Then the two exchanged glances. What did this an?
Bei Ran had already stood up, ready to leave, "Auntie, I’ll be going first! Ziyu, thank you for your kindness!"
Then, as she looked toward Gu Qingchen, she said indifferently: "Doctor Gu, please make way!"
Since she was sitting by the window, it would be difficult for her to leave if Gu Qingchen didn’t make way.
Gu Qingchen glanced at her. Without a word, he still cleared the path for her.
Bei Ran then nodded slightly towards Song Ziyu and the others, then briskly left.
Song Xiaoyin looked at her son: "Qingchen, can you still not let go of that girl in your heart?"
"Wow, juicy gossip, auntie, who is this girl?" Song Ziyu imdiately buzzed with curiosity.
"Mom..." Gu Qingchen’s tone beca sharp in an instant, not caring that this person was his mother, he was just as displeased.
Song Xiaoyin whispered: "Alright, you’re upset, I won’t talk about it, but I think Bei Ran is quite good..."
"Cousin, I also think Bei Ran is quite good..." Song Ziyu took Song Xiaoyin’s arm, "Auntie, who does Cousin like?"
Gu Qingchen walked away briskly, without saying another word to them.
Song Ziyu shook with fear, then hugged Song Xiaoyin.
"Let’s not talk about this, Ziyu. Accompany your auntie for a walk," Song Xiaoyin sighed softly.
After being outside the café, Bei Ran went to wait for the bus at the station. At that point, it started to drizzle.
She looked at the hasty figures in the rain mist, as if everyone was so busy.
She carelessly opened her phone and edited her proposal draft, striving for perfection.
Her slender fingers swiped across the screen of her phone, sotis pondering for a long ti over a single sentence, always seeking the most suitable words.
Gu Qingchen drove out, and while passing the bus station, he saw her leaning against the billboard, completely engrossed in her phone.
He was thinking of offering her a ride when suddenly, a car stopped next to Bei Ran. Tang Baijin leaned out: "Bei Ran, get in!"
"No need!" Bei Ran declined, "I can take the bus myself!"
Tang Baijin simply got out of the car and walked up to Bei Ran: "Will you get in yourself, or should I carry you in?"
"Tang Baijin—" Bei Ran said angrily, "What exactly do you want?"
"I’m pursuing you!" exclaid Tang Baijin. "I’m divorced, you’re single, I’m single. I have the right to pursue you!"
"I also have the right to reject you!" Bei Ran said unsparingly.
Tang Baijin said angrily: "Bei Ran, wake up. You’re already divorced from Gu Qingchen, do you still think about him?"
Their quarreling voices drew the attention of the people waiting at the bus station.
Bei Ran didn’t want to argue anymore and tried to leave via another route!
But Tang Baijin picked her up in one motion, ignoring her struggles, and headed toward his car.
"Put down!" Bei Ran didn’t expect him to actually carry her to the car under everyone’s gaze!
Tang Baijin carried her into the car, and of course, he noticed Gu Qingchen’s car not far away. He lowered his head and kissed her hair, a declaration of war to Gu Qingchen!
