Page 582 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

Inside the Gu Family restroom:

By the time Lan Xing had more or less confirmed that if Jian Ran really wore a mask, the clear beauty in her eyes was identical to Mrs. Gu’s gaze at the Gu Family annual meeting, she was immediately scared to the point of wetting herself.

So it seems, Dong Qin didn’t speak falsely.

Jian Ran really was Mrs. Gu.

Jian Ran watched Lan Xing in front of her, who was dispirited and muttering to herself and pursed her lips slightly.

Sometimes...

Life is just such a farce.

Usually, it was rare to see Lan Xing in such a state in front of herself.

Jian Ran’s lips curved up in a faint smile as her gaze fell upon the woman in front of her. She spoke indifferently,

"Manager, I wonder... if there’s anything else you want to say? If not, I should be going back."

Seeing Jian Ran about to leave, Lan Xing asked with a trembling voice, "Jian Ran... you... weren’t you pregnant? Why... can’t I tell at all from your belly?"

Jian Ran: "..."

Speaking of pregnancy, a dark light and chill flashed through Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes. Initially... Lan Xing had earnestly hoped for something as drastic as the death of a ’monstrous child’. A woman could actually be so malicious.

Jian Ran raised an eyebrow at Lan Xing in front of her, pretending to be clueless, and asked teasingly,

"Manager... why do you say I am pregnant? I have never mentioned it... Or perhaps, you’ve heard it through the grapevine, or maybe... you mistook me for someone else?"

Lan Xing stared at the woman in front of her playing dumb and knew this woman... was indeed masquerading to the extreme.

When others discussed Gu Mochen and Mrs. Gu, she acted as if it were none of her business.

Countless times, she had expressed her coveting of Gu Mochen in front of this woman.

This woman... was always calm and detached.

She was none other than Mrs. Gu.

In Yuncheng City, the greatest winner among women.

She...

Was the king, the ultimate boss.

Lan Xing had been notified by Dong Qin the night before and hadn’t slept since, utterly disbelieving.

Mrs. Gu... and a common employee of the Gu Family, Jian Ran, were worlds apart; totally inconceivable to be connected.

"Mrs. Gu is pregnant."

After a while, Lan Xing finally spoke in a muffled voice.

Jian Ran looked at the woman in front of her, who had lost her former brazenness, and her lips curled up in a sneer.

"Yes... the rumor is... Mrs. Gu is pregnant, but Mrs. Gu herself is a mystery, a rumor, so everything is not to be believed. Manager, if I remember correctly, when you first heard of Mrs. Gu’s pregnancy, you were the one who goaded me to.

.. slip drugs... intended for Mrs. Gu, aiming to kill the child in her stomach.

And then... you also promised me the design department manager position, while additionally aiming to.

.. help yourself climb into Gu Mochen’s bed. "

Lan Xing: "..."

Lan Xing swallowed hard in surprise, realizing her initial statements were a mistake, as she mistook Jian Ran for someone like herself.

Never did she expect that Jian Ran was Mrs. Gu... completely toying with her like a monkey playing tricks.

She had actually dared to speak in front of Mrs. Gu about climbing into Mr. Gu’s bed. There truly was no one more foolish than herself in the world. Now, Lan Xing realized how idiotic her past actions were and seriously wanted to bite her tongue and end her own life.

"I... I didn’t mean to speak those words intentionally, Jian Ran. All along, it was you deceiving me."
