Page 471 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

At the dinner table:

Gu Mochen was very direct in his refusal, causing Karina’s complexion to turn quite ugly.

There hadn’t been a man yet who hadn’t fallen at her feet, and Gu Mochen was definitely the first.

Hearing Gu Mochen’s clean-cut, domineering words, Jian Ran pursed her lips and looked away from Karina’s little face.

This...

The makeup on her face is really thick.

Jian Ran truly worried that if a gust of wind came by during the meal, all that powder might just fall off her face and into the food, and that would be utterly disgusting.

At this thought, the corners of Jian Ran’s mouth twitched.

...

Even at Mrs. Gail’s dinner party, Gu Mochen was decisive and efficient in his actions, not leaving any face for Mrs. Gail or Madam Gail.

Gu Mochen was invincible in the business arena and feared no one.

To him, Mrs. Gail was merely a business partner.

Now, Carlo was on the rise while Bon, on the other hand, was declining, which was the better investment and which was faltering was crystal clear.

Hearing Gu Mochen’s words, Karina immediately looked pitiful, as if she was about to burst into tears.

A touch of sympathy.

But Gu Mochen clearly didn’t spare Karina another glance, elegantly picking up a slice of apple with his fork and handing it to Tang Bao.

Gu Mochen was unaware that Tang Bao shouldn’t have too much sugar, thinking the little girl would prefer apples.

"Have some apple..."

"Thank you, Daddy."

Tang Bao puckered her lips and took the apple from Gu Mochen’s hand, smiling gleefully.

"Daddy, what did that auntie just say to you?"

Since she didn’t understand English, Tang Bao took the initiative to ask with concern.

"It’s nothing, she doesn’t understand management studies and wanted me to teach her, that’s all."

After a pause, Gu Mochen quickly clarified his position in front of his beloved daughter.

"But I’ve already refused her, very decisively."

Hearing this, Tang Bao smacked her lips, looked at the heavily-made-up woman in front of her and said childishly, "Umm... Grandma... sorry, you see, my daddy is very busy, he only has time to teach my mommy, sigh..."

"Alright, Daddy, I’m done talking. You can translate for the auntie. That way she can give up hope once and for all, hehe... Daddy, am I not making what’s called a ’killer move’? Isn’t it super cool?"

"Of course."

In Gu Mochen’s eyes, Tang Bao was undoubtedly the best.

The little girl gave him so many delightful surprises, indescribably wonderful.

When Tang Bao outright called her ’Grandma’.

Jian Ran twitched at the corner of her mouth.

Wasn’t Tang Bao being a bit too much...

This ’Grandma’!

Isn’t she a bit too old?

Although the woman was no good, considering Bon’s influence in Italy, Jian Ran did not want Gu Mochen to make enemies unnecessarily.

Therefore, Jian Ran couldn’t help but reach out and tug at the hem of Gu Mochen’s clothes, whispering.

"Gu Mochen... don’t..."

Before Jian Ran could finish her sentence, she heard Gu Mochen elegantly put down his knife and fork, his lips pursed as he began to speak deliberately.

"Karina, just now my daughter wanted to say something to you, but she couldn’t in English, so she asked me to translate.

Well, the gist of it is, you seem rather elderly, so my daughter mistook you for a grandma.

I am quite busy, so, in management studies, or in any other area, I only teach my wife, sorry. "
