CHAPTER 323: CHAPTER 199: HER GREENNESS, THE FIRST MEMORY

Gu Qingchen stared at her: "Yes! But we didn’t know each other, that day, I was drunk..."

"Oh, even the Great Doctor drinks to excess, how can you treat people like this? What if there’s an emergency?" Bei Ran couldn’t resist teasing him.

"You’re still making fun of me!" Gu Qingchen pinched her cheeks gently, watching her spirited appearance, his heart inexplicably warmed.

Bei Ran reached out and hugged his neck, "I wasn’t making fun of you, I just feel very lucky that it was you..."

Gu Qingchen also learned later that Bei Ran was drugged by Tang Baijin’s mother. Of course, if she hadn’t met him, she might have been harmed by many men.

"However, I didn’t know it was you at the time..." Bei Ran thought about it, recalling the fragments of that moment, which still made her blush.

Gu Qingchen, seeing her blushing, teased her: "Do you know how passionate you were that night..."

Bei Ran looked at him with coquettish reproach: "But, they say that men who have drunk alcohol can’t perform, was it really you?"

"If it wasn’t me, where would our children come from?" Gu Qingchen snorted, "Indeed, you know quite a lot. Ordinary men can’t perform, but who am I? Plus, you were such an enthusiastic beauty..."

She had been drugged at the time, so her enthusiasm was not ordinary.

"Although I couldn’t see your face clearly, the naive scent told me you were drugged..." Gu Qingchen said, "But when I woke up the next day, it was Chenxi sleeping beside me..."

Bei Ran recalled that night, because of the heavy dose from Tang Baijin’s mother, she remembered being very wild, clinging to him many times...

"I woke up by the seaside..." Bei Ran thought for a moment, "But I have no memory of how I ended up at the seaside..."

At this moment, Gu Qingchen turned on his phone, "Look, let me show you..."

Bei Ran saw in his phone a video of her being carried away by a tall woman with long flowing stature from the hotel, and it was precisely at five in the morning on August 3rd.

"Who is she?" Bei Ran instinctively felt this woman was no ordinary person.

"I didn’t see her face!" Gu Qingchen said, "This is from the night I found out about our children. I went to that hotel to check the recordings, which means before five o’clock, I was with you. After five o’clock, it was Chenxi beside me..."

Bei Ran nodded, "So, it’s possible that this woman brought Ms. Song next to you, and did all this to frame you and your cousin? But you never touched Ms. Song, why not explain it clearly to her?"

"I was very down at the time, and I thought that night was with her..." Gu Qingchen said softly, "I always thought I wronged her, it was my first time getting drunk and I ended up hurting my own cousin..."

Listening to him say this, Bei Ran couldn’t help but hug him. Although she didn’t know why he got drunk for the first time in his life, it must have been not a simple matter to make him unconscious!

Moreover, it worried Bei Ran to see such a calm and rational man become decadent and dispirited as he thought he had harmed Song Chenxi!

"Alright, it’s all in the past now! And the truth has proven it wasn’t your doing!" Bei Ran gently comforted him, "You were just framed by someone, and you didn’t do anything wrong to Ms. Song, although Ms. Song is also very innocent, the worst perpetrator is the one hiding in the shadows, orchestrating this conspiracy!"

Gu Qingchen listened to her soft, gentle voice. His heart had once been riddled with scars, and he thought he could no longer love.

That incident six years ago hurt his own sweet-smiling cousin, that girl whose piano music flowed like a mountain stream.

He had once been utterly disheartened, thinking he would never love again, thinking his life would forever be shrouded in darkness.

A young life, burdened by an unbearable weight, constantly suffocated him.

However, these four years of marriage with Bei Ran gradually warmed his heart again.

He knew he needed money, and he was never stingy with her when it came to finances.

And she, a woman as fresh as the early sun, despite what happened six years ago, remained a beautiful and confident woman!

She was as warm as the early sun, always shining on his heart.

Even though it was merely a marriage of mutual agreement, she was the best woman!

Beautiful, but not showy.

Pretty, but not haughty.

Confident, but not arrogant.

Coquettish, but measured.

Gentle, yet a bit scheming.

Of course, he understood that all her beauty and grace, confidence and gentleness blossomed before him, whether genuine or not.

But it was with such a woman that he walked out of the dark years of his life.

"Actually, the lucky one is me!" Gu Qingchen gazed at her small face, "I am very lucky, that night six years ago was you, although the truth came a bit late..."

Gu Qingchen felt that he was fortunate, especially during the incident with Song Chenxi, when his mood was very bad.

He is a doctor, well aware of the genetic relations between cousins, and what children born from such relations could be like!

He was fortunate that that night was with Bei Ran, everything turned out differently.

Because she was Bei Ran, because this radiant woman bore him a pair of dragon-phoenix twins, they were his and her children!

Even though his feelings for her had been indifferent over these four years, very cold, fortunately, he had never truly mistreated her.

From now on, he would cherish her doubly, to make up for the years of love he owed her and their children.

Bei Ran happily said, "Right, we are both lucky..."

Suddenly, she shifted the topic, "By the way, could you and I also be cousins, or even more dramatically, could I be your long-lost sister...?"

Gu Qingchen just laughed: "Don’t worry, we are not related at all!"

"Why do you say that?" Bei Ran looked at him, "I don’t even know who my father is... So, Gu Qingchen, have you tested my DNA?"

She was a smart woman; he only needed to mention it and she would definitely think of it.

Indeed, when he tested the DNA of the older and younger fish, he also tested hers.

"Are you trying to prove that I am their real mother!" Bei Ran snorted.

Gu Qingchen bowed his head to comfort her, "I am just worried something might happen again, are you still mad at me? Seeing such a sharp mind, you surely won’t become foolish..."

Bei Ran pouted her lips at him, "What would I be like if I became foolish?"

Gu Qingchen seriously looked at her: "Perhaps you’ll drool without even knowing..."

"No way!" Bei Ran stuck out her little fist, making a gesture but he captured it in his large palm.

Some say, what’s more powerful than a fist?

Right, it’s the palm.

A fist represents force, a palm represents the gentlest argument.

"But, we need to expose that big villain behind the scenes, otherwise, Song Xuyao will keep haunting us..." Bei Ran pondered, "Song Xuyao has been living in hatred, so, this mastermind is really evil, not only has it harmed you, Gu Qingchen, but also made Song Xuyao paranoid..."

"Song Xuyao is also a tragic character, having lived all these years under the shadow of hatred, but the real mastermind enjoys freedom somewhere out there." Bei Ran sighed, "It’s true what they say, the hated ones often have pitiable aspects as well."

"Why pity him?" Gu Qingchen snorted lightly, his eyes falling on the bandage on her head, "He hurt you like this; no matter how tragic or pitiable, I will not let him go!"

"Actually, he is secondary; let’s first find who the real mastermind is!" Bei Ran was eager, nearly impatient to help Gu Qingchen expose the great villain hiding in the shadows.

Gu Qingchen, seeing her head still injured but not forgetting to find the mastermind, said, "What you need to do now is to rest well here, don’t do anything! Be obedient, I want you to recover quickly!"

"Okay then!" Bei Ran lay down, "What about you? Be careful when you go out too!"

"I know." Gu Qingchen covered her with a blanket, "I won’t go out tonight, I’ll stay with you..."

Bei Ran patted the space beside her, "Then... come sleep..."

Gu Qingchen lay beside her, stretched his hand to embrace her in his arms, fortunately, she was still in his hold.

Bei Ran, smelling his scent, feared at the moment when Song Xuyao captured her, that she might never see him and the children again.

However, trust is a very good bridge.

The two of them, from mutual distrust to mutual trust.

Bei Ran peacefully slept in his embrace, exhausted from the day’s ordeal.

Gu Qingchen lowered his head to kiss the corner of her lips, his hand held her even tighter.

Outside, the storm had not yet subsided.

But in his heart, there was already a rainbow.
