Can We Say No to Divorce?

Chapter 561 - 340 The Luxury Cruise Sets Sail 1_2

Ji Su said somewhat curiously, "I’m not together with Yucheng. Wanwan has also accepted the fact that mom and dad are separated, she would listen to Miss Lu’s words. I won’t fight with Yucheng over custody rights anymore!"

"But, we broke up before the New Year!" Lu Xiao also looked at her in surprise.

"Because of me?" Ji Su blamed herself, "I was reckless last time, Miss Lu, I really never intended to be with Yucheng. It’s enough that we don’t hate each other! I’m only thirty, I have a lot of time left, the world is so big, I really want to go out and see it! You broke up with Yucheng because of me, right? I will talk to Yucheng tonight, a girl as good as you, I will truly wish him well!"

Lu Xiao hurriedly said, "No need, I’m currently only focused on work..."

As Lu Xiao spoke, her walkie-talkie sounded. She had to go to work, and quickly bid farewell to Ji Su and her daughter.

In the evening, Ji Su waited for Gu Yucheng to come back in the living room. Seeing him changing his shoes, she said, "Yucheng, do you have a moment? I want to talk with you!"

Gu Yucheng looked at her with disdain, feeling like she was playing hard to get again!

"It’s about Miss Lu Xiao." Ji Su immediately said, "I really didn’t know you had broken up with her! I’m sorry!"

But Gu Yucheng just sneered coldly, "Ji Su, between you and me, why bother with such insincere talk?"

"I truly hope she loves you!" Ji Su said, "Life is short, can we both let go of hatred, please?"

"Life is short?" Gu Yucheng scoffed, "When did you start to speak so philosophically? Ji Su, a scheming woman like you won’t make it to heaven! Just stay well-behaved with Wanwan! Stop worrying about my affairs!"

"But, I really do feel sorry for Miss Lu..." Ji Su said.

However, Gu Yucheng simply wouldn’t listen to her explanation and then left.

Ji Su sighed. It seems she had let go, but Gu Yucheng was too stubborn, he still wouldn’t let go!

Lakeside villa.

Big Fish and Little Fish both placed their heads on Bei Ran’s abdomen, their ears pressed against it, trying to hear the baby’s sounds.

Song Xiaoyin came out with fruit, "You two little fellows, come and eat some fruit. Mom is only a little over a month pregnant, it’s too early to hear anything yet!"

Bei Ran sat on the couch, "Auntie, please sit down and take a break, you’ve been busy for quite a while!"

So, the two little ones happily ate fruit, eagerly waiting for the baby in mom’s belly to be born soon.

Gu Qingchen recently has been busy arranging the wedding. He’s still in the secret-keeping stage, and hasn’t told anyone.

He is always early to leave and late to return. Today, when he got back, he saw Bei Ran had already taken a bath and was sitting on the sofa.

He approached her and said, "Didn’t we agree that I would bathe you?"

"You bathe me?" Bei Ran giggled, "When have you not just teased me instead..."

"Proves the hubby is charming!" Gu Qingchen laughed heartily, then suddenly turned serious, "Punishment for not listening to me, how should it be doled out?"

Bei Ran proactively sat on his lap, hugging his neck coyly: "Then just punish me!"

Knowing full well he wouldn’t have the heart to, especially now that she’s pregnant!

She’s deliberately provoking him!

"I’ll put it on the tab!" Gu Qingchen declared, "Wait until after the baby is born, then see how I deal with you! No leniency even if you beg!"

She isn’t worried that he’d really hit her; his "punishment" is merely a way to spice things up, a method that could make her plead with him a thousand times, ten thousand times, but still, he wouldn’t forgive her...

But this is what married life is about. It’s fun when he punishes her, and she likes being punished by him. It’s the most harmonious emotion between man and woman, with a little bit of fun, and never boring or monotonous. It’s actually quite harmonious!

Bei Ran flipped open a notebook, meticulously recording, "This is the second time to be punished! It seems I can’t stay put even during pregnancy!"

Married life requires management, whether it’s work or private, secret lives. Even with deep love, there can be endless variations to keep up with.

Soon, the Lantern Festival arrived.

Bei Ran’s pregnancy was going well, with minimal discomfort.

Gu Qingchen took her to relax, the entire family went to the sea, aboard a luxurious cruise liner. It was decorated with lights and festoons, and even had traditional "Double Happiness" characters posted, with people on the deck beating drums and gongs, a professional lion dance troupe performing, and stilt walkers in Red Robe moving freely...

Bei Ran had her hand looped through Gu Qingchen’s wrist, wearing a dress with a classical cheongsam style, while Gu Qingchen, to match the setting, was in a bright red Chinese-style robe.

The couple boarded the luxury cruise, drawing countless admiring looks.

Already a handsome couple, their special attire drew even more envious glances.

However, Bei Ran found it strange that many of the attendees were people she knew, such as doctors and nurses from Gu Qingchen’s hospital, including executives had come!

And her good friends, Tian Xin and Tang Baijin, came together to have fun! Zheng Tong and Duan Feixun came together, Song Ziyu did not come alone, she had a male companion and there were whispers among the crowd.

"Isn’t that Chu Hao, the famous host from the financial channel..."

"Right, right, I thought he looked familiar..."

"But isn’t Song Ziyu married? They seem quite familiar with each other..."

"I heard that Song Ziyu’s marriage isn’t that great..."

Ji Su interjected immediately: "They could just be normal friends! Not every pair that comes here has to be romantically linked!"

Ji Su came alone, Gu Yucheng certainly wouldn’t accompany her. Gu Yaowan, Big Fish, and Little Fish had not seen each other for a few days, and the kids went off to play together.

"You’re right!" Another man spoke up, introducing himself, "My name is He Chenxiang. Yes, like the precious wood, Chenxiang! Chu Hao is an old classmate from high school."

Ji Su nodded indifferently, "I’m Ji Su."

At that moment, someone joked, "Doctor He, do you introduce yourself like that to everyone?"

It was only then that Ji Su took a closer look at him. He was not particularly handsome, his features were somewhat rugged, and surprisingly, he was a doctor; she had thought he was part of the arts scene like Chu Hao!
