Page 552 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

Seeing Lan Xing in this state, Jian Ran couldn’t help but think of Karina...

"Mr. Gu... sorry for disturbing your work during such a busy time in the morning."

"Is there a matter?"

Gu Mochen asked indifferently if there was a matter, yet his gaze never lingered on Lan Xing for a moment, completely focusing on Jian Ran standing beside Lan Xing.

Jian Ran was dressed in a black business suit with a white shirt underneath, her waist was truly slender, not even enough to fill a hand.

Beauty that could topple states and cities.

Especially when Jian Ran wasn’t smiling, she exuded a charm that made it impossible to resist lingering on her with one’s gaze, to succumb.

Never had there been a woman like Jian Ran, who, even when quietly standing in a corner, was enticing to men...

"It’s like this... Mr. Gu, as you are aware, you introduced new regulations before, that by the end of this month, whoever in the design department has the highest performance can take the position of head of the design department."

Upon hearing this, Jian Ran somewhat understood.

It seemed... the old man had more than wine on his mind.

Jian Ran hooked her lips into a faint, mocking curve, quietly listening to Lan Xing’s continued speech.

There was a feeling of toying with someone involved...

Gu Mochen’s thin lips twitched slightly, his handsome face showing no extra expression, and he lightly answered.

"Hmm."

Gu Mochen was absolutely cold when he worked, with a ’no strangers allowed’ air.

Jian Ran was also somewhat intimidated by the man’s clear and cold aura.

Lan Xing thus kept talking on her own: "Mr. Gu, I have worked at the Gu Family company for many years; I’m an old-timer now... Sigh... every generation produces its own talents... the front wave of the Yangtze River pushes the back wave, and they say the back wave dies on the beach."

After pausing, Lan Xing continued to speak.

"I’m thinking of... bowing out of this competition and offering the position of head of the design department to Jian Ran."

Jian Ran: "..."

Damn, Lan Xing has come to play the white lotus.

My performance is right here; why should I give it up?

And also... what right does she have to give anything...?

It’s only a few days until the end of the month.

I’m holding the winning ticket.

Now she’s here... pretending, obviously aiming to be more than just a white lotus, but a green tea bitch as well.

The smile at the corner of Jian Ran’s mouth froze; she truly had underestimated Lan Xing, whose tactics were impressively high-level...

Jian Ran tugged at the corner of her mouth...

Gu Mochen also slightly narrowed his eyes, having not expected Lan Xing to go this far...

Lan Xing, oh Lan Xing, this time, you seem somewhat clever.

But...

With Lan Xing’s intelligence, she most likely wouldn’t have come up with such an excellent idea on her own.

So... there must be someone wise behind her.

"Mr. Gu... you must help me here... I highly regard Ranran, she was personally supported by me... I also took special care of her, and if she becomes the head of the design department in the future, I’d be very happy."

Jian Ran: "..."

Jian Ran was somewhat unable to cope with Lan Xing’s sudden transformation.

Especially with the woman’s hand affectionately hooked around her arm, calling her... Ranran...

Jian Ran felt a sudden urge to curse in her heart.

Damn it... what a bad day to go out and meet such a vile person.

This was obviously blatant lies.

Lan Xing probably wished nothing more than for her to lose in her heart.

"Manager Lan Xing, you flatter me..."
