Page 519 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

Because...

The protagonist of the news knew...

Chu Yingying.

The reason Gu Mochen remembered this woman was purely because Jian Ran called him "husband" for the first time in front of her.

That "husband"... almost turned his very bones soft.

So...

Gu Mochen remembered her.

In his heart, he felt nothing but disgust for her, with not a shred of fondness.

"What, you suspect that I did it?"

"No... I think... you probably wouldn’t be so bored... If it were you... you might more likely make the Chu Family disappear overnight. Such a style of doing things is Han Siming’s behavior."

Jian Ran was being realistic.

However, the Han Siming she remembered had always been gentle and refined like jade.

When one day, the man began to play with these business affairs...

Then everything started to change quietly into something unrecognizable.

Jian Ran’s mouth curved into a bitter smile, although her heart was filled with all sorts of feelings.

Although Han Siming had taken action for her sake, if it really was as she wished...

She hoped that Han Siming would continue being a man as gentle as jade.

Gu Mochen narrowed his dark eyes, Jian Ran’s analysis was spot on.

Indeed, if it were up to his temperament, he would probably make the Chu Family disappear overnight...

Not resort to something so petty as tarnishing a reputation.

But it wasn’t guaranteed that if he simply wanted to amuse Jian Ran...

He wouldn’t mind doing these things.

At other times, he, Gu Mochen, was not such a bored person.

Gu Mochen looked at Jian Ran, a flash of approval in his dark eyes, and stretched out his hand, saying, "Come sit over here by me."

"Okay."

Jian Ran shifted her position and sat beside Gu Mochen, feeling his large hand resting on her waist, adding slight pressure as if by accident.

It seemed like kneading... very seductive.

"So, you found out it was Siming and felt touched?"

Jian Ran shook her head.

"No... I didn’t intend for anyone to interfere in the matter with Chu Yingying..."

But, Jian Ran also knew that Gu Mochen had indeed arranged for the Gu Family’s legal department to directly sue Chu Yingying.

Now it seemed, none of that was necessary.

Chu Yingying’s reputation had already been completely tarnished.

Gu Mochen’s long, narrow eyes narrowed slightly as he gazed at the woman in his arms, speaking casually.

"Jian Ran, your reasoning really exceeded my expectations."

Gu Mochen’s thin lips curved into a faintly charming arc, his hand tightened, pulling Jian Ran to rest fully against his chest.

Having a beauty in one’s embrace, especially with Jian Ran’s small head quietly resting on his chest, the sense of satisfaction was self-evident.

Jian Ran stiffened a bit from the man’s sudden move, her face turning slightly pale.

"Not all women wish for a man to stand by, watch, and support them in their fights... Mr. Gu... may I ask you a question?"

"Hmm, go ahead."

Gu Mochen’s lips formed a wickedly charming smile, waiting for Jian Ran’s question.

"If... there were no men left on this earth, would women still fight each other?"

Gu Mochen: "..."

Jian Ran sat up straight, gazing intently at the man in front of her, her beautiful eyes earnest and resolute.
