Gu Qingchen, the man who never plays by the book, leaned against the black leather sofa, one hand resting on the back of the sofa, the other holding a cup of West Lake Dragon Well tea, his gaze fixed on Bei Ran as if watching sumr flowers bloom: "If I truly cared for you, I wouldn't suggest a divorce!"
At that mont, Bei Ran was overwheld by the urge to ruthlessly trample him!
This man always tried to tear off her pretense without a sound, but in her heart, Bei Ran never resented him for initiating the divorce!
In these four years, he had given her everything a Mrs. Gu was entitled to, without her missing a single thing!
Except for love!
However, Bei Ran's marriage to him was a contractual one, and the very thing she desired the least was precisely—love!
Therefore, with the four-year contract ending, divorce was as simple as the expiration of an agreent for her!
At this mont, Gu Qingchen's gaze towards Bei Ran was as deep and unfathomable as the Aegean Sea's blue depths.
Bei Ran's lips puckered slightly, yet she obediently said, "If Mr. Gu says divorce, then I'll divorce! If Mr. Gu says no divorce, then I won't divorce!"
She handed over all decision-making power to him, and in front of him, she remained as compliant as she had been for the past four years!
Gu Qingchen took a sip of the tea prepared by Bei Ran, and on this early sumr night, it was still heartwarmingly comforting!
However, this woman, Bei Ran... She was so well-behaved that he didn't need to worry about her!
She could keep the household chores in impeccable order.
Moreover, she never made any demands on him! In his presence, she was extrely docile and very endearing!
Humans are not plants; how can one be devoid of feelings?
The next day, at noon.
Bei Ran was awakened by the ringing of her phone, "Who is it?"
"Is this Miss Bei? I am Lu Yaxin, the HR manager from Earth Wedding Company. I would like to apologize for the sulfuric acid incident yesterday and discuss the compensation with you. Would that be convenient?" the HR manager asked.
"I'll be right there!" Bei Ran got up and realized it was already eleven o'clock; she had slept till now!
It seems, after four years of living luxuriously as Mrs. Gu, she really had to make so changes!
Upon arriving at Earth Wedding Company, HR manager Lu Yaxin said, "Miss Bei, you are the first to receive compensation; Doctor Gu sent a dical certificate early this morning! Here is a check for one hundred thousand yuan, please accept it!"
Bei Ran saw that the dical certificate assessing her burn degree was signed by Gu Qingchen; could he be that kind?
Yet, one hundred thousand yuan was very important to her.
As a woman who would stoop for silver, she naturally accepted it with a full-faced smile; she had a pair of twin children to raise!
Lu Yaxin gazed at her, "Miss Bei, if you are willing to work at our wedding company, you can start tomorrow. However, what is your relationship with Doctor Gu?"
Bei Ran looked at Lu Yaxin's face blossoming with adoration, fully aware of this woman's thoughts, and replied indifferently: "He's a good friend of my husband!"
