CHAPTER 340: CHAPTER 210: HOW DOES DOCTOR GU ASK FOR HELP?

After all, Gu Qingchen studied medicine, and he wanted to see various kinds of medical cases; this one was indeed very special.

When he heard Bei Ran talk about it, he became even more eager to go.

"Let’s go!" he said.

Who knew that at this moment Bei Ran suddenly played hard to get. Having successfully piqued his interest, she then said, "Great Doctor Gu, interested in learning about the patient? Didn’t you say no to free consultations?"

"I’m willing to now," Gu Qingchen’s deep eyes locked onto her intently.

"Just because I’m willing now, I have to take you there?" Bei Ran pushed him away and said with a bit of arrogance, "Beg me then!"

Gu Qingchen looked at her pretty face under the morning sunlight, brimming with bold and vibrant energy, like a sapling full of life, growing strong.

"Are you sure?" Gu Qingchen snorted lightly.

"Sure!" Bei Ran snorted back.

Suddenly, Gu Qingchen scooped her up and quickly opened the rear car door, placing her in the back seat, his tall figure looming over her.

His large hand rested on her chest, "I haven’t finished counting this morning’s ribs, and now I’m quite interested in counting them..."

This was an outright counter-threat!

If she wanted to hear him beg, would she have to wait until the end of time!

"Let’s go, let’s go..." Bei Ran hurriedly said, "If we don’t leave now, we’ll really be late! Although this wedding is just a setup, I still have to fulfill my responsibility!"

Gu Qingchen stroked her face with his hand, "Should have just been obedient from the start!"

Once he made up his mind to go, he would definitely go.

This time, he was the one driving.

Bei Ran sat in the passenger seat, busy with her case for the day. Although she was really out of sorts yesterday, with Zong Zheng’s awakening, her heart was still filled with gratitude.

In fact, knowing that Gu Qingchen insisted on going with her, she knew that there was no need to persuade him further.

So, Gu Qingchen drove all the way to the church.

As Bei Ran got out of the car, she saw Wu Kang waving at her.

"Sister Ran, we’ve brought Mr. Qin Chao to hold the wedding in the church," Wu Kang said.

Gu Qingchen frowned slightly, "Why is he being carried onto the wedding ceremony?"

"He said he’s gravely ill, so before the end of his life... he wishes to complete this major event," Bei Ran explained.

"I’ll take a look!" Gu Qingchen stared at Bei Ran.

"Alright." Bei Ran led him to Qin Chao.

Qin Chao had changed into a pure white suit, the color making his skin look even more ghastly, as if he was a thousand-year-old corpse!

"Miss Bei, can we begin?" Qin Chao asked her weakly.

Bei Ran stepped up to him, "Almost ready! This is Doctor Gu, he wants to take a look at your condition..."

"Who told you to be so meddlesome?" Wu Qiong, in a white bridal gown, cursed arrogantly, "We paid you to prepare a wedding, so just do that. We don’t need a doctor!"

Qin Chao quickly said, "Sorry, Wu Qiong is an actor I hired; she might feel bad for spending too much time with me. Anyone who stays with someone like me would feel bad, so her words are a bit unpleasant. Miss Bei, I apologize; let’s not trouble your doctor friend and start the wedding proceedings!"

Bei Ran looked at Gu Qingchen, "He’s unwilling; let’s just drop it."

Gu Qingchen naturally didn’t insist, and just then Wu Kang came over and said, "Sister Ran, Miss Qiao is here!"

Wu Qiong was about to speak when Qin Chao glared her into silence.

Qiao Peitian approached, wearing a red cheongsam, her look efficient yet still exuding a beauty’s charm.

Qiao Peitian looked at Qin Chao, "Feeling any better? Today is your wedding, and after thinking it over, I still wanted to offer my blessings."

Qin Chao stared at her, "Peitian, we’re not fated; let’s not meet again!"

Qiao Peitian handed over a property deed to Qin Chao, "This place is good for recuperating; it’s yours from now on."

Wu Qiong picked it up for a look – it was a villa by the sea, worth at least ten million.

"So we... after this, will never see each other again!" Qiao Peitian struggled to hold back the tears that were about to fall.

Qin Chao choked up as well: "It’s my fault... Peitian, you will be happy..."

At this moment, Wu Qiong spoke from the side: "Husband, the wedding has started!"

Qiao Peitian turned her head away, refusing to look at the decorations inside the church.

Consequently, Qin Chao and Wu Qiong were ready to proceed with the wedding under the priest’s witness.

"Wait a minute!" Gu Qingchen spoke up at this time, "Could we possibly postpone the wedding for a moment?"

"What do you want to do now?" Wu Qiong called out unhappily.

Gu Qingchen looked at Qin Chao, "I heard that recently a new drug has hit the black market, selling very well, which can disguise a person to look however they wish. Mr. Qin, am I right?"

Qin Chao, looking gaunt as deadwood, although his complexion changed instantly, it was still hard for others to tell.

However, his tightly clenched fist, quietly placed at his side, was clearly noticed by Bei Ran.

Since her mind wasn’t on this case yesterday, she hadn’t paid attention to some details.

But this moment made Bei Ran immediately realize that this was all a scam!

"I don’t know what you’re talking about..." Qin Chao still spoke calmly, "If you are here to cause a scene and disrupt the wedding, Miss Bei, what do you suggest we do?"

Bei Ran absolutely trusted Gu Qingchen in this regard, and she immediately said: "I believe him!"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Peitian instantly widened her eyes: "What’s going on? Is he deceiving me?"

"Miss Qiao, I absolutely believe what Doctor Gu has said." Bei Ran spoke, "Mr. Qin definitely does not have a terminal illness, but as for the real purpose of this wedding, I think only Mr. Qin himself would know..."

"What nonsense are you all talking about?" Wu Qiong yelled at this moment, "He’s clearly terminally ill! And this wedding is to prevent Qiao Peitian from marrying Qin Chao..."

At this point, Wu Kang joined the fray, "I think it’s about the property deed in his hands! I’ve always said that I’ve seen despicable men, but I’ve never seen one as despicable as this, living off a woman’s money, faking illness, trying to defraud a woman’s property, Qin Chao, you’re worse than a beast..."

The most furious was Qiao Peitian, who went up and slapped Qin Chao: "You bastard, how could you deceive me like this? I really believed that you had a terminal illness, I’ve been grieving for so long, I gave you everything I could..."

At this point, seeing he could no longer keep up the act, Qin Chao suddenly leapt to his feet: "Besides being obsessed with your restaurant, you had no time for me when we dated, I said I’d help you manage, but you wouldn’t let me! Qiao Peitian, what do you take me for?"

Qiao Peitian wanted to rush forward again, wishing she could kill this feigning and treacherous man. How could she beat Qin Chao at a time like this? Qin Chao grabbed her hair, ready to hit her!

Wu Kang stepped in at this moment, pushing Qin Chao away and pulling Qiao Peitian behind him, "Qin Chao, I wanted to beat you up yesterday when I took on this case..."

As Wu Kang spoke, he landed a punch on Qin Chao with a "bang". Seeing he was outnumbered, Qin Chao turned and ran into the church.

"You bastard! Stop right there!" Qiao Peitian shouted, chasing after him in her high heels.

"Miss Qiao, be careful..." Wu Kang stepped forward, "Call the police and have him arrested! If you chase after him, he might hurt you."

Qiao Peitian then walked back and said to Bei Ran: "Miss Bei, thank you so much!"

"Thank Doctor Gu instead!" Bei Ran looked at the man beside her, if it hadn’t been for Gu Qingchen’s keen observation that Qin Chao was faking his illness, they probably would have all been deceived!

"Doctor Gu, thank you so much!" Qiao Peitian turned towards him.

Gu Qingchen merely nodded lightly: "Miss Qiao should check for any losses and then call the police to handle it!"

"Right, I must catch this bastard!" Qiao Peitian stomped her foot, still furious.

At this time, the sound of police sirens grew louder and nearer.

Suddenly, a tall woman with long hair, dressed in a nun’s habit, strode out of the church.

Bei Ran and Gu Qingchen exchanged glances. This figure was all too similar to the woman who had taken Bei Ran away six years ago!

Without speaking, they understood each other’s intentions.

Thus, Gu Qingchen and Bei Ran both moved forward, intercepting the woman from the left and the right.

Suddenly, a flash of cold light shone from the woman’s hand, a gleaming dagger thrusting lightning-fast towards Bei Ran.

Gu Qingchen pulled Bei Ran behind him with one hand, his foot flying up in a kick towards the knife-wielding assailant, and upon a closer look, it turned out to be him!

Bei Ran also saw clearly who it was, she prepared to step forward to help, but then Gu Qingchen said: "Stay back, don’t let him harm you!"

This time, how could Gu Qingchen let this villain escape again!
