Page 499 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

Jian Ran’s cheeks unnaturally flushed.

Gu Mochen... since he declared his love for her yesterday...

It seemed... he had become even more enchanting.

Some things had quietly changed, and Jian Ran simply couldn’t catch up.

Jian Ran was led directly into the living room by Gu Mochen, where the entirety of the living room featured ivory white marble countertops and the decor was in a European style.

Above the walls, were entirely classic European paintings from the fourteenth century.

Even...

Some of them were originals.

Nowadays, originals were worth a fortune.

The servants were most respectful as they brought in a refined lunch and fresh flowers.

Decorating the entire castle anew.

Jian Ran, in a soft white dress, and Gu Mochen, in casual white attire, stood together in the center of the castle, which further accentuated the beauty of the scene.

The servants were simply amazed by the sight of the handsome man and beautiful woman together.

It was too beautiful... like a scene from a delicate mural.

Initially, she always felt Gu Mochen was a man who had stepped out of an oil painting.

But she never expected that the wife of Gu mentioned in rumors would be just as exquisite.

And so the little girl, sculpted like sugar and jade...

This family of three had otherworldly looks.

...

Jian Ran was worried about Tang Bao running around alone upstairs, so she couldn’t help heading toward the second floor.

Just as she reached the staircase to the second floor, she heard the little princess’s excited, high-pitched scream.

"Wow... so beautiful..."

Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes widened, and she quickly followed the sound and saw the little princess covering her lips in surprise, standing in front of a princess room.

Jian Ran’s eyes widened again...

Herself, when she was small, had always lived in a princess room, and was somewhat knowledgeable about them.

She had never imagined...

That a princess room could be designed so magnificently.

The entire ceiling was rendered in the deep blue of the ocean, coupled with hand-painted murals of the mermaid princess.

The vast room was even larger than the two-bedroom apartment she and Tang Bao once lived in.

On the soft carpet, there were all sorts of toys that girls loved.

No wonder the little princess screamed in surprise; even Jian Ran was amazed upon her first sighting.

It was every little girl’s dream.

For the little princess to sleep in such a loving environment every day, listening to the sound of waves outside the window, bathing in sunshine, was truly one of life’s greatest pleasures.

This room... you could tell that the person who decorated it put very much heart into it.

If it wasn’t for deep love, the details would certainly not have been brought to such perfection.

Tang Bao, hearing movement behind her, excitedly turned around and flung herself into Gu Mochen’s arms.

"Daddy... I found the surprise you prepared for me, it’s so beautiful... This place really is so beautiful, Daddy, I love it so much here... and I love you and Mummy too..."

"I’m glad you like it, as Daddy naturally wants to give our little princess the very best things."

Hearing Tang Bao’s excited voice, Gu Mochen bent down and picked the little girl up into his arms, turning to Jian Ran with a gentle voice.

"It took three days and nights of non-stop work to finish the renovation just before we left Rome."

Jian Ran: "..."

No wonder, upon their arrival in Rome, they didn’t stay here; it turns out this place was being set up as a children’s room for the little princess.

Three days and nights, plus the time needed for the prior planning and design, meant that Gu Mochen had arranged this matter a long time ago.

It showed that he had held Tang Bao in his heart for a very long time already.

A warm current surged through Jian Ran’s heart, and she felt extraordinarily moved.

Indeed... after locking eyes with Gu Mochen, any of his actions would invariably trigger an emotional response in her.

Jian Ran’s eyes reddened, worried that Gu Mochen would notice, she awkwardly averted her gaze, noticing a total of six rooms on the second floor. She subconsciously walked towards the room opposite Tang Bao’s room.

As the door was left ajar, Jian Ran pushed it open directly.

Seeing the room’s decoration, she was startled.

Gu Mochen, he really had prepared another huge surprise for her.

It turned out, it wasn’t just Tang Bao’s children’s room that had been the focus of round-the-clock labor...

There was also this room...

But, to have prepared so far in advance, might it have been too soon?

However, even though she thought this, Jian Ran was still dazzled by everything before her eyes.
