As the head of the Gu Family, Gu Bohan made an imposing appearance today.
Looking at Bei Ran, there was no denying she was a woman of stunning beauty!
n love beautiful won, which is understandable!
But beyond beauty, n cherish won with talent even more!
Since arriving at the Gu Family Estate, Bei Ran had always carried herself with graceful poise and composure, her pretty face radiant like the moon.
Gu Bohan’s face shone with a chilling gleam, like the frosty shadow of a sword sweeping across unsettled dark clouds, his pupils shimring as if they were cold arrows ready to be fired, ardently gazing at Bei Ran.
Bei Ran had lived with Gu Qingchen for four years and had co to understand sothing about him.
It was clear that genetics are a marvelous thing; Gu Qingchen had inherited many traits from Gu Bohan.
Therefore, at this mont, Bei Ran was not afraid at all, eting Gu Bohan’s gaze head-on.
For a lioness protecting her cubs, no matter what perils lay ahead, she would fight to the end just like a lioness!
Bei Ran asked straightforwardly: "Master Gu, it was you who had soone take away my twin babies, right?"
Her statent was affirmative, not interrogative.
Her voice was clear and firm, neither humble nor arrogant; her eyes held a captivating crystalline clarity.
Gu Bohan regarded her with a critical eye, aggressively intense, confirming her to be an intelligent woman, "They are the bloodline of the Gu Family!"
Bei Ran smiled faintly, her dark eyes especially bright and vivid. As a smart woman, how could she not understand Gu Bohan’s intentions? The Gu Family wanted to seize the twins, and Gu Dongyu was the direct heir of the third generation.
To the Huaxia people, nothing is more important than bloodline. How could the rightful grandson of the Gu Family be left adrift outside the family?
"As long as Qingchen agrees," Bei Ran knew that with just her own strength, it was impossible to contend against Gu Bohan. Her mother had passed away, and her father’s identity was unknown; the only relatives she had in this world were the twins and Gu Qingchen.
At this mont, Gu Bohan sat down in the seat of honor, a chair made of high-grade rosewood, and his gaze fell on Bei Ran once again.
This was a woman as gentle as water, as exquisite and delicate as jade.
Water can float a boat or sink it.
Jade can nurture or ruin a person.
Bei Ran understood, her own power was too ager compared to Gu Bohan’s, like an egg striking a rock, and while Gu Bohan certainly wouldn’t harm the twins, he absolutely had the power to prevent her from seeing them.
So-called powerful families, when it cos down to it, are just bullying others with their power.
How could Bei Ran not understand this principle?
Gu Bohan’s piercing gaze fixated on Bei Ran like a steel spike, stabbing straight into her heart: "You are the only woman by Qingchen’s side all these years. You should understand why I called for you today?"
"Bei Ran is obtuse, truly clueless!" Bei Ran still t his gaze, her tone light as water.
She could be as wise as ice and snow when smart, and as calm as water when playing dumb.
How could she not know? Gu Qingchen’s mother, Song Xiyin, did not live with Gu Bohan but traveled far away. What could have driven her to make such a decision except for emotions which could deeply wound a woman?
Moreover, Bei Ran had seen Song Xiyin, who was optimistic and cheerful, certainly not soone who would leave Gu Bohan for money, considering the Song Family was also very well-off.
Furthermore, only Gu Yucheng stayed by Gu Bohan’s side, while Gu Qingchen had no dealings with the Gu Family.
Therefore, this ti, Gu Bohan’s purpose could only be twofold: one, to reclaim the twins for the Gu Family, and two, to restore father-son affection with Gu Qingchen. Blood is thicker than water, and no matter what happened in the past, the bond between father and son can never be erased.
Bei Ran naturally understood, but she definitely would not stand on Gu Bohan’s side.
Gu Bohan scoffed coldly. His deep, indifferent gaze was much like that of a predatory feline scouting its prey, displaying cunning and deceit to the fullest.
"You’re a smart woman; why pretend to be ignorant with ?" Gu Bohan said coldly: "Indeed, I won’t harm the children, but what about you? Tell , what if I made you disappear from this world without a trace, what then?"
Bei Ran also gazed at him, her eyes shining with the brilliant hues of the setting sun, "Master Gu certainly has the ability, but you have lived until now without comprehending the true aning of familial love. It’s not that by making disappear, the children will forget their mother, nor that by making disappear, Qingchen will forget as a woman. Familial love is a kind of spiritual connection that needs no words, deep as the ocean. No matter what your intentions are today, I will state my position; I respect any decision Qingchen makes, I will not interfere with his life or decisions."
