Page 440 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

Although she had a fairly certain answer in her mind, it felt better to be sure.

She really wasn’t certain if he was indeed Gu Mochen...

"Don’t move... Good girl, dance with me..."

Gu Mochen extended his large hand and took Jian Ran’s small one directly; the graceful piano music started playing, reminding her of the dance they had at the Gu Family’s annual meeting.

The man moved with agile and practiced steps; despite Jian Ran wearing high heels, which were inconvenient, she was still able to keep up with Gu Mochen’s rhythm.

Jian Ran deliberately paused her steps, attempting to step on Gu Mochen’s foot as she had done at the Gu Family annual meeting, but he deftly dodged.

With a sweep of his arm, Jian Ran found herself falling into the man’s strong embrace.

Jian Ran: "..."

The familiar scent of musk enveloped her overwhelmingly.

Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes trembled... her suspicion became even more certain.

It was Gu Mochen...

Their bodies pressed close, their exquisite dance steps providing ultimate visual enjoyment for everyone.

Gu Mochen’s eyes slightly narrowed as he gazed at the woman before him, as if he wanted to etch her deeply into the core of his heart.

As the piano piece concluded, Gu Mochen’s big hand swooped down to pull Jian Ran into his arms.

The two of them fitted together without a single gap.

Because she was wearing high heels, Jian Ran, although much shorter than Gu Mochen, found his thin lips at the perfect height to reach her forehead.

Jian Ran felt a warmth on her forehead, and her eyes widened in shock.

Looking up... she met the man’s deep, enchanting eyes, and her heart skipped half a beat.

"Come with me."

Jian Ran: "..."

Jian Ran watched as the man’s large hand gripped her slender wrist, and she was promptly pulled away from the event.

The crowd that had circled to watch Jian Ran and Gu Mochen dance instinctively cleared a path for them to pass without obstruction.

...

Jian Ran had not spoken a word until Gu Mochen led her away from the crowd, and she couldn’t help but speak.

"Gu Mochen... is it you?"

The reason she hadn’t called out earlier was her concern that others would learn of Gu Mochen’s identity.

Hearing this, the corners of Gu Mochen’s mouth curled up, but he did not respond to Jian Ran’s question.

Jian Ran couldn’t help but stumble, nearly falling, but Gu Mochen caught her in his arms.

"I’ll hold you..."

"Where are you taking me..."

Jian Ran was now one hundred percent certain that the man before her was Gu Mochen.

"You’ll know when we get there."

Jian Ran watched as the man carried her towards the elevator, and she couldn’t help but swallow hard, her heart pounding inexplicably.

This was the Royal Hotel, the lobby was on the first floor...

Going up would be the accommodations.

Gu Mochen was taking her upstairs...

Clearly, his intentions were very obvious.

This was not like at Linhai Villa where Tang Bao was there to protect her.

Here...

For a moment, Jian Ran didn’t know who she could seek for protection.

Ding!

Jian Ran desperately wished the elevator would be slower, but contrary to her wishes, it stopped precisely at the top floor, and Gu Mochen carried her directly towards the suite.

"Gu Mochen... I’m going to call the police."

Jian Ran was in a state of panic, her words coming out disjointed and out of order.
