Bei Ran had already been working overti in the study until after midnight, then enjoyed a "luxury seafood feast" passionately with him. After indulging in that "luxury seafood feast," she didn’t even know when she had fallen asleep.
Moreover, he used to be a man of few desires.
But as ti passed, she didn’t know where all these new and varied styles ca from, and just thinking about it made her blush and her heart race.
What’s more, the key thing was that it gave her the urge to go wild and crazy with him. She just wanted to rise and fall with his rhythm, endlessly.
Gu Qingchen liked her shyness aside from her competence, which was a sweetness unique to his woman.
Watching her sweet and shy deanor at the mont, no matter how sly and crafty she was, it was only by his side that she would reveal the most genuine side of a woman.
It was like the most skilled woman at deception, who, once he peeled away her layers, had nothing left but her purest side.
"Have I ever told you that when you are shy by my side, that’s when you’re at your realest?" Gu Qingchen’s eyes were as deep as the ocean.
Hearing him say this, Bei Ran couldn’t help but shudder gently and then whispered, "I was... at work..."
Could he please not bring up last night’s event!
Gu Qingchen felt her every little change, his fingers glided over each of her ribs; her delicate ribs under his rough fingertips seed like living wings.
"Don’t you want to know how many ribs you have?" Gu Qingchen’s voice was devilishly enticing, filled with his unique magnetic timbre.
Bei Ran, hearing him say this, almost lted into his arms; she looked at him with a soft, pleading gaze, begging him to stop!
So, Gu Qingchen said, "Hmm, it’s my fault you beca a panda, a national treasure. I’ll co to pick you up after work, let’s go."
Bei Ran looked at the case on the desk that still wasn’t finished, "I’ll take it ho and do it there!"
She tidied up the desk, then took a case ho to work on it. Leaving with Gu Qingchen naturally attracted the attention and gaze of many colleagues.
Everyone also knew that Bei Ran’s ex-husband was the Crown Prince of the Gu Family; although he was not a businessman but a doctor, the title of the Gu Family’s Crown Prince was still impressively shiny.
After Bei Ran and Gu Qingchen left, Lu Yaxin walked indignantly to the pantry; she had to work overti.
She encountered the manager of the planning departnt, Su Dingmiao, "Manager Su, you haven’t left work yet?"
"I’m going to be busy for a little while longer." Su Dingmiao made a cup of coffee.
Lu Yaxin imdiately started to sow discord, "Manager Su, you have not left work as a superior, yet Bei Ran can leave. Pan Yutao is giving her too much power! I think she definitely wants to bypass you and report directly to Pan Yutao..."
"Pan Yutao is the boss of all of us; we all have to listen to him." Su Dingmiao had been through the wringer at the workplace for years; she certainly understood Lu Yaxin’s motives!
"Yes..." Lu Yaxin felt slightly awkward, "Actually, Manager Su, do you think Pan Yutao is so kind to Bei Ran because of Doctor Gu?"
After preparing her coffee, Su Dingmiao was ready to leave when she only said, "It would be better to ask Pan Yutao directly!"
Lu Yaxin wouldn’t dare to ask Pan Yutao even if she had a hundred tis the courage. Watching Su Dingmiao leave, she huffed lightly, thinking that Su Dingmiao would soon be surpassed by Bei Ran, wondering how she would keep up her arrogance then?
And so, Gu Qingchen would try his best to find ti to pick up Bei Ran for work. Although others usually date before getting married and then having children, Bei Ran felt that in her life, she had a child first, then got married, and after that ca love.
Actually, she and Gu Qingchen’s ti for love was also very limited. He was busy and would rush back to the hospital for an ergency surgery right after picking her up from work.
Bei Ran bought his favorite kind of tea leaves. When he arrived, if she was still busy, she would brew him a cup of his favorite tea, allowing him to silently enjoy the tea aroma while she would finish up her work and leave quickly.
One day at noon, just as Bei Ran finished her work and was drinking a large glass of water, her phone rang.
"Miss Bei, Bei Dongyu did not return to school in the afternoon." The kindergarten teacher called.
Bei Ran was a bit anxious: "Dongyu has always been well-behaved; could it be his dad picked him up? I will ask and then call you back!"
Bei Ran imdiately called Gu Qingchen, but he was in the middle of ergency surgery and did not answer her call.
Just as Bei Ran was about to call Yang Junyi, she received another call from the kindergarten, "Miss Bei, Bei Sangyu did not return to school for class!"
"How could this be?" Bei Ran could not sit still any longer; she quickly grabbed her handbag and walked out, "Did anyone co to pick her up for class today?"
"Sorry, it’s our negligence!" said the kindergarten, "The principal said... a big shot has taken Bei Sangyu away..."
"A big shot?" Bei Ran imdiately pressed the elevator button, "Wasn’t it Mr. Gu who went to pick her up?"
"No, that’s not it!" The kindergarten teacher said, Gu Qingchen often ca to pick up Bei Sangyu after class, and all the teachers almost recognized him!
Bei Ran realized, both Big Fish and Little Fish disappeared at the sa ti, taken away by the sa person, as expected, that so-called important figure?
So who is this important figure?
While pressing the elevator button, Bei Ran called Yang Junyi: "Junyi, is Qingchen performing a surgery?"
"Yes!" Yang Junyi’s voice was smooth and jade-like, "There was an ergency just now, but the surgery is minor and he will be out soon."
"Then, after Qingchen cos out, tell him soone has taken away Big Fish and Little Fish," Bei Ran said.
Yang Junyi realized the severity of the situation: "How could this happen? Who did it?"
"It’s still unclear!" Bei Ran stepped out of the elevator.
"Could it be Song Xuyao?" Yang Junyi’s expression beca grave, "That man has gone mad with the desire for revenge, if he is the one who took the children, what exactly does he want to do?"
Bei Ran was already heading towards the parking lot when she saw a row of people in black suits waiting for her, "Don’t worry for now, I will first ask Yufeng..."
"Miss Bei..." The leader of the n in black suits stepped forward.
After Bei Ran hung up the phone, he then said, "Our master would like to see you!"
Bei Ran should have expected that the so-called important figure who took away both Big Fish and Little Fish, the dragon and phoenix twins, would be the old master of the Gu Family!
"You do not need to inform anyone else!" said the man in the black suit.
It was Bei Ran’s first ti eting a mber of the Gu family, just never expected under such circumstances.
"Okay!" Bei Ran got into an extrely expensive business van with composure, taking a seat in the back. A man sat on each side of her, maintaining a distance of about ten centiters, clearly watching her intently.
In the van with black curtains, Bei Ran had no idea where they were headed.
The inside of the van was very quiet; she just sat peacefully, regardless of where they were going. Concerning her precious dragon and phoenix twins, even if it were into a dragon’s den or tiger’s lair, she would still go.
About half an hour later, the car stopped in front of Half Mountain Villa.
Half Mountain Villa, nestled amidst lush trees, appeared like a white pearl set in a sea of green.
"Miss Bei, please get out of the car!" The lead person said as he spoke, albeit coldly, his attitude was still rather respectful.
As Bei Ran got out of the car, she looked at the golden-bright "Gu Family Estate" sign, thinking that if the Gu family was considered the foremost wealthy family in the city, it would not be an overstatent!
And this mountain belonged entirely to the Gu Family.
The entire mountain was inhabited by only the Gu Family.
Even though Bei Ran had a hidden marriage with Gu Qingchen for four years, firstly because it was a hidden marriage, and secondly because Gu Qingchen never ntioned family affairs of the Gu Family, she knew nothing about it.
She walked in, seeing little bridges over flowing water, pavilions and pagodas, as if stepping into a painting. The landscape was like a poem, both beautiful and enchanting.
However, she knew very well that the depths of a wealthy family were like the sea.
Therefore, everything cannot be judged solely by its appearance.
She followed the man in the black suit into the splendid hall, where he said: "Miss Bei, please wait, the old master will see you after he finishes with his guest."
Bei Ran stood in the hall, observing its decor which was of very good taste. Beyond the nobility and extraordinariness, there was the style of a great household.
Many famous paintings from around the world hung on the walls, each one of incalculable value.
It was evident that the Gu Family was not only extravagant but also very high-profile.
A steady sound of footsteps approached from afar.
A tall figure was coming closer.
Bei Ran slightly turned and saw a spry elder in his fifties or sixties, his deanor stern but commanding, exuding sheer seriousness.
The years had not left rciless marks on his face; on the contrary, he was still a mature and stable man with a magnetic charm!
Moreover, the looks of Gu Qingchen and Gu Yucheng ca almost 80% from this patriarch of the Gu family.
