CHAPTER 403: CHAPTER 248 HEARTLESS LITTLE THING! 2_2

Bei Ran had not yet spoken when her phone started ringing.

She took it out and saw that it was Gu Qingchen calling.

She slid the answer key, and Gu Qingchen’s deep voice, laden with a commanding tone, came through: "Bei Ran, come back immediately!"

But Bei Ran turned on the video function, and deliberately provoked him: "Do you see this? This is Taohua Island! There are also cabins, all things I like! Do you know what flowers I love? I love peach blossoms!"

On the other end of the call, there was no response.

Gu Qingchen did not speak.

Bei Ran also fell silent.

After a while, he finally said, "If you are still angry about how I treated Ji Su, by fighting with me like this, indeed, it breaks my heart! I don’t like your intimate relationship with Tang Baijin, and I don’t want to know about your beautiful past with her!"

Bei Ran spun around on the spot and said, "Fine, we’re even! Also, you come pick me up!"

She put down the phone, and Tang Baijin’s star-like eyes were watching her.

Bei Ran gazed at him: "Baijin, I’ve always felt that we could interact like old friends. Moreover, I need to make it clear to you that my coming out today was because I asked Yufeng for a favor. You and I only have a past, not a future, and I think you should understand, no matter how entangled I am with Gu Qingchen, the reality is that we have a child together."

Tang Baijin just smiled: "It’s okay, knowing that, it’s good to anger him!"

Bei Ran smiled too!

In the current situation, even if Tang Baijin is unwilling to let go, what could he possibly do?

From the conversation between Bei Ran and Gu Qingchen, he could tell that she cared about Gu Qingchen, hence she wanted to provoke him.

Such behavior is like that of a wronged child, who, having been upset by an adult, finds an excuse to throw a tantrum.

Although such behavior might be somewhat childish, in the face of love, who can truly remain rational?

No matter how beautiful and composed she is, she is still undeniably a woman!

She hopes to be fully cherished by Gu Qingchen!

She hopes to be fully loved by Gu Qingchen!

She hopes to be fully pampered by Gu Qingchen!

So Tang Baijin could completely understand her angry words just now!

Perhaps, he can truly be an onlooker, which is why he is able to see into the depths of Bei Ran’s heart.

"I am sad for the injury you have suffered!" said Tang Baijin, "But I will respect your wishes. No matter who you want to be with, I will respect you, Bei Ran. Of course, whenever you need me, even if it’s just to make Gu Qingchen angry, I will unhesitatingly stand by your side."

Bei Ran gazed at him, regaining her rationality, "Baijin, I was being somewhat childish just now, indeed holding some resentment for Gu Qingchen. His unresolved feelings with Ji Su do upset me. However, after calming down, I still hope you can restart your own life. Really, I will definitely wish you well! If you wish, I could personally plan a perfect wedding for you and your significant other."

Tang Baijin nodded; he would do anything she wished for.

"Let’s go! Have a drink in the cabin!" said Tang Baijin, "He’s probably not going to get here that quickly!"

Bei Ran went to the cabin with him, and Tang Baijin took two glasses, pouring two cups of wine.

"What wine is this?" Bei Ran was a bit surprised. "You made it yourself?"

"Finally someone with taste!" Tang Baijin laughed. "This is Lychee Wine, made from lychee trees on the island. I brewed it myself. Try it and see if it’s good."

Bei Ran lifted her glass and took a sip: "Very fragrant, strong, and sweet... This is pure natural wine. I didn’t expect you could brew wine!"

"When you leave, take two jars with you!" Tang Baijin cheerfully brought out two jars!

Bei Ran stood at the door: "Wow, you have a wine cellar too?"

"Yes, do you want to take a look?" Tang Baijin asked her, "Look, this is Lychee Wine, this is grape wine, this is Jackfruit Wine..."

"Are they made from different fruits?" Bei Ran asked him.

"Yes!" Tang Baijin replied, "If you like, take whichever you want!"

Bei Ran grabbed a cup: "Hmm, I want to taste them all first..."

She tried several different types of fruit wines in succession and found them all quite to her liking!

"Alright! I’ll take a jar of each kind!" Bei Ran raised her glass and toasted with Tang Baijin, "I truly hope that next time, you’ll bring your girlfriend along, and you two can taste these fine wines together."

"I also hope that you and Gu Qingchen can defeat demons soon, become a perfect match, and come to the island together. I’ll invite both of you for drinks!" Tang Baijin sincerely said.

"Sure!" Bei Ran raised her glass with great enthusiasm, "It’s a deal! Next time, I’ll come with Qingchen, and you must bring your girlfriend! The four of us drinking big bowls of wine and devouring meat..."

Actually, this is a wonderful life to look forward to!

Although the journey is tough, it’s precisely because of this hardship that we can thoroughly enjoy such happiness when we reach a happy ending.

When Gu Qingchen’s speedboat arrived at the island, he and his people came to the cabin, Bei Ran was drinking with a cup in her hand. Seeing Gu Qingchen, she said, "You really do look like Qingchen..."

Gu Qingchen came to her side and smelled the aroma of the wine, he said: "I am!"

"Are you here to pick me up?" Bei Ran gazed at him.

"Yes!" He answered, "Go and wait for me on the speedboat first!"

Bei Ran held a jar of wine in one hand, "Okay, let’s continue drinking when we get back..."

She walked outside and said goodbye to Tang Baijin: "I’m leaving! Looking forward to our next gathering!"

Next time, she hoped that all the Gu Family’s problems would be solved, that Gu Qingchen could return to being the Great Doctor, and that she could be with the children again. As for Tang Baijin, she hoped he would have a girlfriend and could start a new life.

After Bei Ran left, Gu Qingchen didn’t say a word, just swung his fist and punched Tang Baijin.

Tang Baijin didn’t hesitate to return a punch to Gu Qingchen, "You better take good care of Bei Ran! Don’t let her get hurt again, and those ex-lovers of yours, you better make them scram as soon as possible! What glory do you have, Gu Qingchen? If you’re still involved with ex-lovers, what have you got to be proud of? If you’re a good man, you’d love only Bei Ran, and if you’re a good father, you’d love your twin children dearly! If I didn’t have an unfortunate mother, do you think Bei Ran would stand by your side now?"

In this regard, Tang Baijin believed he did better than Gu Qingchen. He once had Qian Zhi Ling in his life, but when it came to Qian Zhi Ling hurting Bei Ran, he was unrelenting in dealing with her!

The current Qian Zhi Ling, controlled by medication, no longer troubled Bei Ran.

If it weren’t for having a mother like Tao Yu’en six years ago, how could he and Bei Ran have broken up? And how could Bei Ran have had a night with Gu Qingchen?

Gu Qingchen snorted, "I don’t need you to teach me a lesson! Tang Baijin, I know what I’m doing, I have never loved Ji Su, why would Bei Ran be jealous? What happens between me and her is none of your business!"

Having said that, Gu Qingchen turned around and left.
