Page 516 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

Jian Ran nodded, gently holding the little girl as she walked to the bedroom on the side. She straightened up the bed, then let the little girl lie down and carefully covered her with a thin quilt.

"Let’s go out."

"Okay."

Gu Mochen stretched out his large hand to encircle Jian Ran’s shoulders, then, holding the woman, he moved towards the exit of the room.

The Demon King had finally fallen asleep...

It suddenly became quiet.

Jian Ran and Gu Mochen... now seemed at a loss for what to do.

Having Tang Bao as a lubricant between the two of them seemed to ease the atmosphere a bit.

But now... Tang Bao was asleep.

It became awkward.

"What about the other Gu Family employees, when are they going back?"

"Yesterday..."

"Hmm..."

It seemed that Gu Mochen had always kept his schedule separate from the other employees.

The man clearly had ulterior motives.

Jian Ran tugged at the corner of her mouth, only to see Secretary Zhou approaching her.

"President Gu, madam..."

"Hmm..."

Secretary Zhou’s sudden visit took Jian Ran by surprise; during these four days in Rome, it was mainly Secretary Zhou and arranged female secretaries who had been taking care of her for the first two days.

The only thing that made Jian Ran slightly jealous was...

Secretary Zhou got a bonus increase of thirty thousand.

And herself, just 13 dollars.

"Secretary Zhou, you don’t need to call me madam, just Jian Ran will do."

Jian Ran saw that Gu Mochen had no intention of correcting the misnomer, so she couldn’t help but speak up herself.

How could she continually be called madam? If this went on until they got back to the Gu Family... it would be troublesome if one was unable to change their way of addressing her.

Secretary Zhou: "..."

Secretary Zhou was embarrassed.

President Gu was watching all along.

How could she dare to casually change the form of address?

Secretary Zhou squeezed out a smile at the corner of her mouth...

"You and President Gu are legally husband and wife. I have been negligent for always calling you Miss Jian... As for the title of Mrs. Gu, you truly deserve it."

Jian Ran: "..."

Yes, legally that was the case...

This...

Jian Ran was at a loss for words due to Secretary Zhou’s remark. Gu Mochen, at her side, however, raised a sly smile, quite satisfied.

Jian Ran was speechless, but Secretary Zhou took the opportunity to say, "Miss Jian, after learning that you are JR, President Bon’s Gail decided to use your designs for the buildings to be constructed on the plot of land he has on hand."

Jian Ran: "..."

Gail...

That man with malicious intentions, the dishonorable father who instigated Karina.

When Jian Ran came to Rome, she indeed brought many of her design sketches.

Unexpectedly, they were chosen by the other party.

Most likely, it was not about the wine, but rather they cared about her pen name JR.

Also, to give face to Gu Mochen.

Moreover...

They probably didn’t want the scandal to go public.

After all, arranging for his daughter to proactively seduce a married man in their home wasn’t exactly honorable.

Especially since Gail’s family was a respectable figure in Italy.

"Secretary Zhou, how many of my design sketches did he choose in total?"

"At present, it seems to be ten sketches at once. Miss Jian, if you go back, it will be the final performance evaluation, and you will surely come out on top to become the design department manager."

Jian Ran’s eyes flickered...

What she was more concerned about was the base salary issue after being promoted to manager.
