CHAPTER 368: CHAPTER 224 EX-GIRLFRIEND

Bei Ran’s words meant a lot to Gu Qingchen, a man so perceptive, how could he not understand the underlying message?

She was cheering him up like this!

Her thoughts were clear and precise; she wanted to help him share the sorrows of life.

Gu Qingchen bowed his head and kissed her lips, she truly was his little treasure!

After a lingering kiss, Bei Ran’s head buried in his chest.

Gu Qingchen then looked out the window, the reflection on the glass disappearing gradually into the night.

It was obvious to anyone secretly taking photos of him and Bei Ran at that moment, that this place was not to his liking.

Gu Qingchen lifted Bei Ran down and placed her next to the dining table.

"How about my proposal..." Bei Ran looked up and asked, "What if I’m not talented in medicine, what about business?"

Gu Qingchen gazed at her for a long while without speaking.

Bei Ran touched her lips, which he had kissed until sore, and pouted, "Alright, let’s eat!"

This way, Gu Qingchen returned to Gu Group, and Bei Ran still went to work at Earth Wedding Company.

As soon as she returned to work, Tian Xin sought her out.

After hearing about her and Yang Junyi’s situation, Bei Ran said, "The simplest method is a DNA comparison, it’s the most effective. Of course, you must avoid doctors like Fang Zimo, otherwise, if you really are siblings, it’d be tragic! Also, I think Junyi should be informed."

"But I don’t know how to break it to him..." Tian Xin said anxiously.

"I’ll do it!" Bei Ran said, "Junyi himself is a doctor, although it’s cruel, letting him handle it is most trustworthy, don’t you think?"

"I know, but I just can’t accept it..." Tian Xin said sadly.

Bei Ran patted her shoulder, comforting her, "Don’t worry until the results are out."

Thus, Bei Ran went to the hospital; Yang Junyi was surprised to see her: "Miss Bei..."

"I came to see you today," Bei Ran said, "there’s something very important to discuss."

"Please sit down!" Yang Junyi nodded.

Bei Ran looked at him sternly: "Did you know? Tian Xin has a brother two years older than her, he went missing when they were young..."

Yang Junyi’s face changed, "Could it possibly be me?"

"It’s hard to say, Tian Xin hasn’t been able to sleep or eat well because of this, she cares a lot about you!" Bei Ran said, "Given I once had twins’ DNA tested and the data was tampered with, she couldn’t trust anyone else, and you are the most appropriate person. Although it’s very cruel, such matters must be addressed before you get married."

"I understand, I’ll do it!" Yang Junyi’s hands were trembling, the truth came too quickly, leaving him no time to process.

Subsequently, Yang Junyi personally conducted the DNA comparison with Tian Xin.

Bei Ran stayed with Tian Xin, who couldn’t bring herself to drink the glass of juice before her.

She was too afraid to face the results!

The fear inside her was like an invisible net, trapping her bit by bit, with no escape.

Bei Ran stayed by her side, at this moment, any words were superfluous.

That’s when Bei Ran received a call from Gu Family Estate: "Miss Bei, the old master asks you to come home."

"I’ll come back now." After hanging up, Bei Ran told Tian Xin, "The old master from Gu Family asked me to return, are you okay by yourself?"

"I’m fine, it’s just the waiting is heart-wrenching!" Tian Xin sighed, "You, on the other hand, what does that old man want?"

"Whatever he wants to do, the children are still in his hands," Bei Ran said sadly, "I never imagined my life could turn out like this..."

After all, who does think that?

At twenty, one dreams of a bright future.

As time passes, we find that the beauty we imagined often slips away unexpectedly.

What’s left behind is nothing but sorrow.

"Do you want me to come with you?" Tian Xin asked, looking at her.

"No need!" Bei Ran said, "Just wait for Junyi’s results. But remember, whatever happens, you need to learn to accept it, okay?"

"I will." Tian Xin nodded firmly, "You go quickly!"

Gu Group.

In the office of the Chairman Gu Bohan, an assistant brought in a document: "Chairman, these are the shares of the eldest young master, all transferred to Bei Ran."

"Hmph..." Gu Bohan’s face turned cold, "He is really good to this woman!"

"Should we invite her to today’s shareholders’ meeting?" the assistant asked.

"Hold off for now!" Gu Bohan waved his hand, "We can’t let the other shareholders know. I will have her return everything to Qingchen."

The assistant immediately said, "Chairman, it’s time to start the meeting."

Conference room.

Gu Bohan took the seat at the head, looking at either side, his two sons sitting beside him, he said with great satisfaction: "All the directors are here today, I have an announcement; Yucheng will be the vice president, Qingchen will be the president. I hope that with Qingchen leading and Yucheng assisting, the company will continue to grow and thrive."

Over the years, Gu Yucheng also won over quite a few people’s hearts. A director on his side said, "But after all, Qingchen is a doctor, his specialty is medical science, now suddenly entering the business world, can he adapt?"

Gu Bohan had anticipated such a scenario, and a director on his side immediately said: "Qingchen being a doctor was just arranged by the Song Family. After all, he is a Gu and inheriting the Gu Family is his career. Even as a doctor, he was the best, and as a businessman, he will surely be outstanding."

Gu Bohan looked around: "Anyway, now we need to let facts speak. Gu Group needs to incorporate new blood to grow and excel, let Qingchen show everyone how it’s done!"

Although Gu Qingchen was forced back by Gu Bohan, he too had to adapt to his new role.

"If there are results, I will naturally stay, if there are no performances, I will not stay here either," said Gu Qingchen as he glanced around the room.

One of the directors asked, "What about the Xishan plot that many companies are competing for, can Gu Group secure it?"

"Isn’t Gu Yucheng negotiating it?" Gu Qingchen said indifferently.

Being named, Gu Yucheng naturally couldn’t sit still, "I will definitely negotiate it, you don’t need to worry!"

"What if Yucheng can’t negotiate it through? Qingchen, are you confident?" another director asked.

Gu Qingchen glanced at Gu Yucheng: "How much time do you need?"

"Three days!" Gu Yucheng was annoyed but didn’t lash out.

"Good, if it can’t be negotiated in three days, I will step in," accepted Gu Qingchen.

After the meeting, in his president’s office, Gu Qingchen lit a cigarette, he’s been smoking more heavily lately!

As Gu Yucheng passed by his office, he stared at him: "I’ll make you leave disgraced!"

"We shall see!" Gu Qingchen merely flicked the ash from his cigarette, speaking calmly.

Gu Yucheng stepped in: "Six years ago, I could break you down like a lifeless corpse, I can do it again six years later!"

Gu Qingchen was still very calm as he looked at him. If before Gu Yucheng brought up six years ago, he might have gotten angry or excited, but now, everything has settled, he won’t anymore.

Gu Family Mansion.

After Bei Ran returned, she went directly to Old Master Gu’s study.

Before entering the door, she received a video, she opened her phone to watch, it was Little Fish falling ill.

She pushed the study door open, "How is Little Fish now? What exactly do you want? She’s just a five-year-old child!"

"Bei Ran, you’re a smart person, what happens to Little Fish depends on your attitude!" Gu Bohan sat in his black leather chair, his eyes sharply watching the somewhat panicked Bei Ran.

If it weren’t for Little Fish’s illness, Bei Ran might not have lost her rationale, she impetuously said: "Do you want me to leave Qingchen? Is that it? Why don’t you tell him? Why do you have to force me? Why do you use a child for leverage? Why are you so heartless to an innocent child..."

Gu Bohan just stared at her: "You don’t need to know so many whys! In any case, if you want Little Fish to get her father’s care, you must leave! Of course, you never had the right to take away any child from the start!"

Bei Ran tearfully looked at him, Little Fish was her darling, always by her side.

At this moment, however, she was being used as a hostage, suffering from illness, how could she bear it?

"You’re too much!" Bei Ran yelled angrily.

"Get out!" Gu Bohan’s face was cold and stern, "Think it over, then come find me!"

Tears streaming down her face, Bei Ran walked out. As she passed the back garden, she saw a man in a white doctor’s coat, that was Gu Qingchen’s face, he was holding another woman...

He was kissing the woman’s hair, his eyes filled with the love of a long-awaited reunion...
