Page 608 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

Gu Mochen had an imposing presence, and his words were ice-cold, as frigid as frost. The young nurse was so frightened that she stumbled and spoke timidly.

"Okay... Um... You could use the urinal. It’s right under the bed."

Having said that, she didn’t wait for Gu Mochen to lose his temper; she scooted off in a flash.

Ah... Patients these days are so precious.

No helping it...

Ah... Being a nurse is so tough. Ow...

Guys do have their pride, the young nurse still understood that.

...

After the young nurse left, Jian Ran had been holding back her smile all along, finally unable to contain it anymore.

Just moments ago... she had naively asked him to drink soup to nourish his body...

"Gu Mochen, if you had explained the reason to me earlier, I wouldn’t have kept making you drink soup."

Upon hearing this, Gu Mochen raised an eyebrow, and a hint of dark light flickered through his narrow, ink-like eyes.

"So, Mrs. Gu is suggesting... that we should call that nurse back to help me get a catheter? Hm?"

Jian Ran: "..."

Jian Ran met the man’s insinuating dark eyes and knew that Gu Mochen was deliberately provoking her.

She unnaturally looked away...

"A sick person should indeed listen to the nurse, and I feel that what she said makes some sense."

Gu Mochen: "..."

Watching Jian Ran defend her point with such conviction, Gu Mochen’s handsome face turned even darker.

"Jian Ran, you make a great Mrs. Gu, willing to let other women see your husband’s private parts, hmm?"

Jian Ran: "..."

Listening to the man’s words laced with obvious sarcasm, Jian Ran once again didn’t know where to look.

Ever since knowing that Gu Mochen needed a catheter, Jian Ran’s focus... indeed didn’t know where to concentrate anymore.

"If you’re unwilling to have a catheter, one of the orderlies is a man; I’ll ask him to accompany you to the restroom."

Men are all about face.

Especially someone like Gu Mochen, how could he be willing to do something like having a catheter.

So...

The only solution was to have someone support Gu Mochen, so that he could conveniently go to the restroom.

When Gu Mochen heard this, his handsome face turned colder again.

"Not even shying away from men, Mrs. Gu, you sure are generous."

Jian Ran: "..."

Damn it...

I’ve already gone this far; what exactly does this man want?

"Gu Mochen, you..."

"Jian Ran, you’re going to support me."

Upon hearing Gu Mochen’s words, Jian Ran’s face slightly changed.

To the restroom...

Her and him...

"Gu Mochen, this kind of thing might be more convenient for a man."

"I insist that you support me, Jian Ran. If you want to continue being stubborn, then I think... this chicken soup needs to be reheated."

Jian Ran: "..."

The determination in the man’s dark eyes was resolute, not open to discussion.

Jian Ran was somewhat at a loss for words...

Indeed...

Gu Mochen’s body needed nourishment.

Holding it in wasn’t a solution.

In the end... Jian Ran gave in...

"Mm."

Gu Mochen, upon hearing the simple assent from the woman, curled his lips in satisfaction.

As for understanding Jian Ran’s character... he still had some grasp on it.

Women were always tough on the outside but soft on the inside.

...

Because Gu Mochen was still on an IV drip, Jian Ran needed to hold the IV bag while also supporting him as they headed to the restroom.
