CHAPTER 402: CHAPTER 248 HEARTLESS LITTLE THING! 2
Yang Junyi looked at the two of them: "Enough, stop talking for now."
Tian Xin looked at Yang Junyi, feeling an indistinct unease. Had their relationship just been cast in a shadow?
But at this moment, it was the final farewell for Mrs. Yang, so she said nothing.
Bei Ran walked with her to the side, and Gu Qingchen walked over, his expression tinged with sorrow.
He reached out and took Bei Ran’s hand: "Don’t think too much for now. After all, Uncle Yang is in a lot of pain right now, and his words might be a bit unpleasant..."
Bei Ran pulled back her small hand from his, "I won’t think about those things."
Gu Qingchen looked at her cold demeanor, "Are you still angry about what happened this morning?"
How could she not be angry? He lent money to Ji Su, yet when she asked Tang Baijin for a cup of tea, he wouldn’t allow it. What was this?
"This is a very solemn occasion, please, Mr. Gu, have some dignity and don’t pull at me, making us a laughing stock!" Bei Ran huffed and then walked away.
Gu Qingchen saw that she was still fiery-tempered, and knowing he would need help entering the Yang Family residence, he watched her, curious to see how long she could keep this up!
After Gu Qingchen busied himself with other matters, Bei Ran accompanied Tian Xin, who sat in a corner wearing a black coat, watching Yang Junyi from afar.
Many people came to see Mrs. Yang off on her last journey, with the Yang father and son welcoming and thanking the guests.
"Xinxin..." Bei Ran came over, "Don’t think too much for now..."
"Ranran, I just feel very uneasy!" Tian Xin said, "I don’t know why?"
"I understand, maybe it’s because Junyi has been busy with his mother’s matters and hasn’t been with you," Bei Ran patted her shoulder, "but you have to trust him, he’s a reasonable person! He won’t blame you!"
"I hope so!" Tian Xin sighed.
Bei Ran went to get a glass of water for Tian Xin, "How is your wound? Is it any better?"
"Much better!" Tian Xin moved her limbs, "Gu Qingchen really deserves to be a doctor, his medicine is effective! It’s a pity that he’s not practicing medicine anymore, all because of that stubborn old man... By the way, Ranran, have you found anything out?"
While Bei Ran was speaking, her phone rang, "It’s Yufeng calling, I’ll be back soon..."
Bei Ran stepped out onto the balcony to answer the phone, "Yufeng, how’s the investigation going?"
"We’ve got some leads," Zhuo Yufeng said, "I’m currently outside the Yang Family home. Come on over and get it."
Bei Ran knew that the memorial service wouldn’t end so soon, so she stepped out.
As she did, she saw Tang Baijin there.
"Baijin..." Bei Ran was startled.
Tang Baijin immediately pulled her into his car, and Bei Ran said, "But... I’m supposed to get some documents from Yufeng..."
"It’s fine if you get them later!" Tang Baijin said, "The most important thing right now is that you come with me and don’t stay by Gu Qingchen’s side."
At that moment, two of Bei Ran’s bodyguards noticed she had gotten into a car. One started to follow in pursuit by car, while the other went to inform Gu Qingchen.
"Mr. Gu, Miss Bei got into Tang Baijin’s car..." said the bodyguard, "My colleague is in pursuit."
Gu Qingchen was busy and couldn’t leave, but he did not expect Bei Ran to be competing with him like this. He said gravely, "Bring her back!"
"Yes!" the bodyguard immediately gave chase.
Bei Ran sat in Tang Baijin’s car: "Where are you taking me? Tonight is Junyi’s mother’s memorial service, I must attend. Baijin, stop this nonsense!"
Tang Baijin sped up the car, intent on shaking off the car that was following them. "You’ve already said your greetings to the Yang family father and son. It’s okay if you leave early."
This was the best opportunity for him to take her away.
Tang Baijin drove to a dock and then swiftly pulled Bei Ran onto a yacht, ordering his people to head to a small island.
Normally a deserted island, it was now shaded with green trees and a few wood cabins, built in ancient styles without modern flair.
"Bei Ran, this is the same little island we visited six years ago. We made a wish together to live like on Taohua Island. Look, there are even peach trees, but it’s not the season for them to bloom..." Tang Baijin said, "I planted these trees myself and designed these houses..."
Bei Ran sighed reflectively, looking at all this and falling into pleasant memories.
Memories are beautiful, but time is merciless.
Time is like waves, washing away countless grains of sand.
However beautiful the past may have been, the present is unrecognizably altered.
