Can We Say No to Divorce?

Chapter 532 - 325 The Coldest 2_2

After returning to the radio station, Bei Ran saw Ji Su waiting for her.

"Bei Ran, could you do me a favor?" Ji Su came to her office.

Bei Ran took a sip of water: "Tell me! You’ve helped me a lot, I’ll definitely help you. What is it?"

"I want to get back Wanwan’s custody." Ji Su said.

Bei Ran guessed as much: "Is it because Gu Yucheng is dating Lu Xiao?"

"Not just because of that. Today, when I took Wanwan to eat lunch at a western restaurant, he was on a date with a young girl. Wanwan went over and made a fuss, and he said I had instigated it. I felt so cold inside!" Ji Su said sorrowfully, "In fact, it doesn’t matter to me whom he dates. It’s Wanwan who I truly want to cherish! But he refuses to let me have her!"

Bei Ran nodded: "No matter what your relationship with him is like, he does indeed care for Wanwan. It’s understandable that he won’t give her to you."

"But I don’t want to fall in love or be in a relationship anymore; my life is only about Wanwan now. Whereas he can have children with any other woman!" Ji Su said, "Me and him, we’re not the same."

Bei Ran also understood that for Ji Su to snatch her child from Gu Yucheng’s hands would be like taking a rabbit from a tiger’s mouth – the chances were virtually zero.

"Bei Ran, when I gave birth to Wanwan, I bled heavily. The doctor said it would be very difficult for me to have children again!" Ji Su said sadly, "I so desperately want Wanwan, but Gu Yucheng is different, he has no issues and can have many children with any woman, especially those young and pretty girls..."

Bei Ran listened and comforted her: "What do you want me to help you with?"

Ji Su said: "Could you forge a DNA certificate for Wanwan? You know, Gu Yucheng cares most about Gu Qingchen. If it was said that Wanwan is Gu Qingchen’s daughter, he would definitely let her go. Of course, I swear on my life that there’s absolutely nothing intimate between me and Qingchen, we’ve never had that sort of relationship..."

Bei Ran was shocked; this was indeed a very good plan. Since Gu Yucheng was so concerned about Ji Su’s relationship with Gu Qingchen, he would surely let go. The key was whether Gu Qingchen would agree or not?

In fact, Bei Ran had suffered greatly because of a forged DNA certificate; it was Tang Yanran who had fabricated one that caused her to break up and divorce Gu Qingchen.

However, on the other hand, with or without children, her relationship with Gu Qingchen had also been tested like never before.

Ji Su looked at her: "I know this is wrong, but I really have no other way! Bei Ran, you are a mother too, you understand how it feels to be without your child! I hope you can help me, okay?"

"But, Ji Su, let me ask you a heartfelt question. If President Gu really ends up with Lu Xiao, won’t you regret it?" Bei Ran asked her, "I hope you can tell me the truth, okay?"

Ji Su shook her head: "I won’t regret it, Bei Ran. There’s been too much entanglement between him and me for many years. Since six years ago, our affection has been frayed, and we forced ourselves to stay together for Wanwan. Over the years, in front of Wanwan, both he and I have been acting, but children are sensitive. They know whether their parents’ affection is genuine. I truly won’t regret it. If you don’t believe me, you can also test Gu Yucheng. He must be more tired than me! He doesn’t want to continue with me either."

"Since it’s like this, our relationship has broken to the point of no return, the only issue left is the child. He won’t let go, but I want her too!" Ji Su said.

Bei Ran felt sympathetic. After loving a man for over ten years, it ended in separation. Now Ji Su was almost thirty, her youth fading, and having another child was difficult, while Gu Yucheng was still thriving, both in his career and personal life, at his prime.

"Let me think about it first, and I’ll ask Qingchen his opinion before I reply, okay?" Bei Ran said.

"Alright!" Ji Su nodded.

Bei Ran looked at Ji Su, whose eyes were red with emotion. A woman’s youth is much shorter than a man’s, and once gone, it doesn’t return; beauty fades, and even her child was taken away by a heartless man. Ji Su truly had it hard!

Ji Su’s life was full of hardships.

Since childhood, she had no father, and her mother was a compulsive gambler, not only forcing her to work and study from a young age but also ruining her happiness with Gu Yucheng.

She thought Gu Yucheng would be her lifelong partner, her companion till old age. The business secret incident caused their trust to collapse completely.

And Gu Yucheng made an even more brutally cruel decision, treating her as an object and offering her to Gu Qingchen. At that time, Ji Su was pregnant, and Gu Yucheng even suspected the child was Gu Qingchen’s, treating her with extreme coldness.

Perhaps, it’s best to let go of an already fractured relationship!

This way, everyone can have a new beginning!

That night, Bei Ran waited at home for Gu Qingchen to return. Due to many patients needing observation, Gu Qingchen was busy until late before he returned.

However, upon his return to the lakeside villa, there was always a warm light on in the room, like a lighthouse at sea, illuminating the direction he was going, as a comforting warm hue in the loneliest nights, warming his heart.

From loss to gain, and from gaining to losing again, people always switch between losing and gaining.

Gu Qingchen changed his shoes at the entryway, then strode upstairs.

Bei Ran was on the sofa using her laptop, wrapped in a blanket because of the cold. Hearing his return, she lifted her head to look at him.

As always, there was a cup of warm water and a person waiting.

How long had it been since she’d felt the feeling of waiting for him? How long since she’d waited for him to come home!
