"Mmm..." Bei Ran just couldn’t go against her daughter’s wishes, so she agreed.
Song Xiaoyin didn’t want the child to disrupt the two young people’s affairs, and thus she said, "Little Fish, Grandma also knows how to tell stories, why don’t you stay with Grandma tonight?"
Gu Qingchen naturally was pleased to see this, and thereby tacitly consented.
Bei Ran knew that with the child not at home, Gu Qingchen would definitely be more unrestrained, and he didn’t yet know how he was going to "torture" her!
It was still safer to keep Little Fish by her side!
At least he loved the child, and he wouldn’t recklessly wake the child up!
However, before Bei Ran could speak, Little Fish had already responded: "Okay! Grandma, not only will you tell me stories tonight, but you’ll also teach me to draw..."
Bei Ran then quietly took out her mobile phone from her handbag; at this moment, she could only seek help from Tian Xin!
But the phone was snatched away by Gu Qingchen, who even placed it on the table, ruthlessly chiding, "Eat your meal properly! What are you doing with the mobile phone?"
All of Bei Ran’s little schemes were fully visible in his eyes.
So, just like a well-behaved little daughter-in-law, Bei Ran immediately started to eat her meal obediently!
Seeing Bei Ran’s obedient, cute, and compliant demeanor, and with her son looking fierce but cherishing her deep in his bones, Song Xiaoyin couldn’t help but smile!
After the four had dinner, Gu Qingchen drove Song Xiaoyin, "Mom, are you staying at a hotel? Or at home?"
"With Little Fish, we’ll stay at your place!" said Song Xiaoyin, and then in a lowered voice, "Are you staying at Bei Ran’s house tonight?"
Gu Qingchen didn’t speak; he obviously wasn’t going to answer his mother’s question.
"Alright then, Mom won’t disturb you tonight!" Song Xiaoyin quickly said, "See, I’ve even taken Little Fish away, haven’t I?"
"Mmm..." Gu Qingchen was sparing with his words.
So, after Gu Qingchen dropped Song Xiaoyin and Little Fish back at the Lakefront Villa and entered the house with his daughter, Bei Ran’s phone started to ring.
She saw it was Tian Xin calling, and happily said, "Are you looking for me? I’ll come to your place right now!"
By this time, Gu Qingchen had already walked out of the villa’s gate.
As Bei Ran talked while walking, and noticing his emergence, she immediately tried to run away!
Gu Qingchen just calmly walked to his car, staring at the woman preparing to flee, he lit a cigarette, uttering just two faint words: "Come back!"
Bei Ran stopped under the moonlight, then turned around to gaze at the man in the moonlight.
His body naturally leaned against the car door, with the tip of one foot touching the ground and knee slightly bent, resting on his other leg, while the cigarette in his hand flickered under the starlight.
He didn’t look at her, only gazed at the cigarette between his fingers, occasionally taking a deep drag and then slowly exhaling a ring of smoke into the night sky.
Bei Ran watched him like that, the man in the night appeared to be an enchanting demon.
He had a demon’s charm, capable of overturning cities and countries!
She couldn’t move her feet and in the end, she walked back to his side.
Bei Ran reached out, took the cigarette from his hand, and placed it between her index and middle fingers, then gestured to show him, "Is it ?"
Gu Qingchen ignored her, instead he opened the car door, then sat in the driver’s seat, waiting for Bei Ran to get in.
Bei Ran held the cigarette to her lips, and upon smelling the faint tobacco scent, she tossed the cigarette into a nearby ashtray.
She opened the car door, got in, and fastened her seat belt for herself.
Gu Qingchen drove off, and neither of them spoke a word on the way.
Silence, just like the tranquil night water, seemed so serene.
Bei Ran didn’t want to disturb this peaceful moment either.
Time flowed away like water.
Six years of time, Bei Ran felt as if it were just yesterday.
If it weren’t for watching the child grow up day by day, she wouldn’t know that she herself was getting older step by step.
Her six years, spent with her treasures.
His six years, with no intersection with her treasures.
When they arrived downstairs at Bei Ran’s house, Gu Qingchen parked the car, and both of them entered the elevator together.
Since it was only nine o’clock in the evening, there were still many people entering and exiting the elevator.
Those who recognized Bei Ran nodded and greeted her, and when they saw Gu Qingchen entering the elevator with her, they couldn’t help but take a few extra glances.
Gu Qingchen’s face was as cold as the moonlight this evening.
After the elevator reached the floor where Bei Ran lived, she took out her keys and unlocked the door.
