Page 637 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

Gu Mochen’s handsome face was calm, without any superfluous expressions, very distant — a chill that kept others at bay...

...

Jian Ran waited until Gu Mochen had hung up the phone before she took the initiative to ask, "Gu Mochen... is the situation very serious?"

Gu Mochen looked at Jian Ran with a serious expression and spoke casually, "Secretary Zhou, go and bring the freshest cherries over for Jian Ran to eat, her lips are all dry..."

"Yes, President Gu."

This... Does President Gu have to be so willful?

Clearly, his wife... was asking about work matters.

Sigh... President Gu only cared about whether his wife’s lips were dry.

Wow, so domineering, truly a perfect man.

"Hmm... Also, arrange for someone to prepare two baskets to send to Tang Bao’s kindergarten for her and her friends to eat together."

"Okay..."

Jian Ran: "..."

Jian Ran pursed her lips, and after Secretary Zhou left, Gu Mochen moved the notebook in front of him to the side and then extended his hand, indicating for her to come over.

Seeing his brows furrow, Jian Ran subconsciously walked closer, then raised her hand and placed it between the man’s eyebrows, earnestly smoothing out the furrows.

"Mm... Be serious... Let’s talk about work, President Gu!"

Calling him President Gu highlighted their hierarchical relationship.

Gu Mochen originally had nothing but disdain for workplace flings.

But... when such a suitable woman appeared, he couldn’t help but want to flirt with her... to hold her, to kiss her... to embrace her...

The thought crossed his mind and Gu Mochen’s long, narrow eyes narrowed again, flickering with a deep, hidden light.

"I think if we’re talking about work... Mrs. Gu, if you replaced the words ’President Gu’ with ’husband’, my enthusiasm for work would be even higher."

Jian Ran: "..."

Expecting Gu Mochen to do something constructive... was indeed a bit much.

Jian Ran couldn’t help but sob inwardly... She couldn’t help but stretch out her hand and pinch the tender flesh on the man’s neck...

Only to see Gu Mochen shrink his neck back in fear...

Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes widened in surprise...

Such a small action reminded her of Tang Bao, who typically didn’t mind being hugged or tossed around, no matter how rough, but just couldn’t stand being touched on the neck, feeling unbearably itchy and uncomfortable, and would shrink back.

Just now... Gu Mochen had the same subconscious reaction.

Exactly like Tang Bao.

Jian Ran had originally thought that such an odd behavior was unique to Tang Bao, but she hadn’t expected that what they say is true: ’A family doesn’t come together without reason,’ as Gu Mochen had it too.

"Gu Mochen! We are here to discuss official business, be serious."

Jian Ran suppressed the thoughts that had just sprung up in her heart, now... wasn’t the right time to discuss this matter.

Gu Mochen looked at Jian Ran with a stern face, serious in her demeanor, and nodded.

"Mm... Jian Ran, I still say the same thing, I have a solution — call me ’husband’... and I’ll tell you..."

Jian Ran: "..."

The man’s deep, jewel-like eyes shone brilliantly... captivating to anyone who saw them.

Jian Ran looked at the man’s splendid eyes and unnaturally avoided his gaze.

It seems... Gu Mochen was planning to ensnare her with this tactic.

"Jian Ran, my time is very precious, I’m giving you 30 seconds to think it over."

Jian Ran: "..."
