Page 596 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

In the Gu Family’s hall:

Jian Ran took a deep breath as she faced the woman in front of her with eyes filled with venomous juice and a sinister expression...

Now that she couldn’t dodge in time, rather than just sit and wait for death,

it would be better...

to use her arm to block a knife.

That way, she could ensure that the damage to her body was minimized.

After analyzing the situation calmly, Jian Ran subconsciously raised her right hand, ready to dodge the sharp blade swung by Chu Yingying.

At this moment of life and death...

Unlike last time, when she thought of Tang Bao and Jian Anguo in her mind,

this time...

Jian Ran subconsciously thought of Gu Mochen.

This time, the man’s handsome face loomed larger before her...

Sometimes demonic, playful, indulgent, or sinfully charming.

Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes flickered... As she raised her arm, she slowly closed her eyes.

The sharp blade piercing through her arm would surely be excruciatingly painful.

But this was the least harmful way of self-protection for herself.

...

However...

The anticipated pain did not arrive.

Jian Ran heard a loud bang, followed by the sound of the knife hitting the ground, and then the woman’s screams as she also fell...

Jian Ran subconsciously opened her eyes and saw Gu Mochen’s tall figure, his leg raised in a kick that hadn’t been retracted yet.

It was Gu Mochen... He had directly kicked Chu Yingying’s hands, knocking the knife out of the woman’s grip.

Gu Mochen had arrived in time.

It turns out that the image that had flashed through her mind a moment ago was due to Gu Mochen’s urgent appearance.

Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes trembled...

Looking at the man’s resolute handsome face, the perfect lines of his facial features, she couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise...

"Gu Mochen."

Gu Mochen heard Jian Ran’s call and pursed his lips. With concern in his voice, he asked, "Hmm, are you alright? Anything wrong?"

"I... I’m okay."

Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes quivered, and her voice involuntarily became hoarser, a sight that made Gu Mochen’s heart ache. If he had been just a little late, the consequences would have been unimaginable for his woman.

Gu Mochen felt something was wrong when he received a text from Jian Ran saying she had to come to the gate to pick something up. Sure enough, upon his arrival, he saw Chu Yingying brandishing a blade at Jian Ran.

Thankfully... he arrived just in time.

Even now, Gu Mochen was still feeling frightened.

...

Looking at Chu Yingying, who lay on the ground before her, Jian Ran’s complexion was somewhat pale.

This woman had actually tried to kill her twice.

At first, in the Gu Family hall, the security guards hadn’t reacted yet, but after Gu Mochen’s roundhouse kick sent Chu Yingying flying, they immediately came to their senses, quickly surrounded her, and subdued Chu Yingying.

The other employees were screaming one after another, most of them from the female employees admiring him.

Wow, President Gu was so handsome just now...

How could he be so cool?

Sigh... A hero saving a beauty indeed.

Howl... If possible, I really want to be that beauty, even if getting stabbed by a knife would make me happy.

...

Gu Mochen, seeing Jian Ran a bit pale, bent down and was about to directly pick her up, but Jian Ran pushed his arms away and said softly,

"This is the hall, they are still watching..."

After all... there were only a handful of people who knew she and Gu Mochen were married.
