Page 805 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

The voice was deep, and beneath those sunglasses... were European facial features. Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes flickered with a touch of contemplation.

Mercenary...

It was no longer as simple as being just a special forces soldier.

"Hmm."

In this critical time, it was mostly Gu Mochen who arranged for someone to protect her and Tang Bao, to prevent people like Wang Wu from seizing the opportunity.

At the thought, Jian Ran felt a full sense of security.

"Please help us prepare breakfast for three."

"Alright."

...

In a café diagonally across from the hospital:

Gu Mochen raised the cup of warm water in front of him and took a gentle sip.

"Siming... what happened to Dong Qin was my doing. I, Gu Mochen, never intentionally shirk my responsibilities..."

Having said this, Gu Mochen lifted his eyes to look at the dispirited man in front of him, pursed his thin lips, and his mouth curled up with a trace of scorn.

"Siming, this is my explanation."

After speaking, Gu Mochen handed the USB drive in his hand directly to Han Siming in front of him.

Han Siming: "..."

Explanation?

Hearing Gu Mochen’s words, Han Siming’s gaze fell on the metal USB drive in Gu Mochen’s hand, he said in a hoarse voice, "What is this?"

"It’s the reason why I had to act against Dong Qin... I think you’ll understand after you watch it."

Gu Mochen spoke concisely, then raised his hand to signal the waiter to prepare a laptop computer, including headphones.

Han Siming, looking at Gu Mochen with everything ready, hesitated for a moment, vaguely feeling that there was a huge secret hidden inside the USB drive.

Otherwise... Gu Mochen wouldn’t have gone so far as to kill.

"Big brother."

Gu Mochen looked at Han Siming, who called out to him with utter confusion, and pursed his lips.

Han Siming... now also like an ungrown child, how could such a man protect Jian Ran?

Therefore, the initial missed connection between him and Jian Ran was not solely Dong Qin’s fault, and it had a great deal to do with Han Siming himself.

"Take a look, I’ll give you time to finish watching."

After speaking, Gu Mochen took another sip of the warm water in his hand, his gaze cold, full of aloofness and chill.

Han Siming: "..."

Han Siming’s handsome face was extremely pale; his injuries from the recent car accident hadn’t healed cleanly.

Now, under the successive blows, he was even more downcast.

Han Siming, trembling, inserted the USB drive directly into the laptop, his whole body shaking violently.

Was he... about to face another disaster?

With moist eyes, Han Siming opened the video on the USB drive and then put on the headphones, soon... his gaze was captivated by the people appearing on the screen.

It was... Jian Ran from 4 years ago... and Dong Qin.

Could this be...

Han Siming’s heart clenched.

years ago, what he liked most was Jian Ran, dressed in a playful school uniform, hair tied in a ponytail, smiling like a flower in the sunlight.

The more Han Siming watched the video, the more his entire body stiffened terribly, feeling as though his internal organs were being hollowed out, his heart aching too much to remember to breathe.

Dong Qin... how could she do this?

Insults and abuses weren’t enough... she even resorted to hitting.

I used to respect you as an elder... now I find... I take it back... because you don’t deserve it... Since all you see is money, you might as well... take your money and live well with your son, Han Siming... I, Jian Ran, don’t want this anymore... not now, nor will I ever want this in the future.
