Page 806 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

This is Jian Ran’s last phrase.

Tears of stubbornness lingered in the corners of her eyes, refusing to fall despite the bloodstains on her cheeks left by the scrape of the banknotes.

The words hit Han Siming right at the heart, making his handsome face even paler than before.

Now... I truly understand...

Jian Ran had suffered such humiliation back then.

At that time, I was completely oblivious and even thought afterwards that Jian Ran really took the one million from Dong Qin.

Jian Ran was heartbroken beyond consolation, no longer wanting nor caring to explain.

That’s why she made the vow, she didn’t want me anymore, not now nor ever in the future.

Han Siming felt like a real asshole. When he came back from America, he had vowed to himself that if Jian Ran wanted money, he could just give it to her, not knowing that... he had made a mistake yet again.

He and Dong Qin were essentially the same, using money to smash at Jian Ran, to shame her.

So... no wonder four years later, Jian Ran wouldn’t even give him a straight look.

Han Siming trembled as he replayed the video, listening to Jian Ran speak of not wanting him. Each word was like a sharp blade stabbing fiercely into his heart, making breathing painfully difficult.

Heh...

With an ashen face devoid of any color, Gu Mochen looked indifferently at the man before him, thinking if only he had known, why bother in the beginning.

Gu Mochen knew Han Siming had finished watching the video of Dong Qin making things difficult for Jian Ran. His narrow, dark eyes slightly squinted before he spoke, "There’s a corresponding video that follows."

"Mhm."

The second video is the entire process of Wang Wu assaulting Dong Qin last night.

Gu Mochen didn’t feel cold-blooded, there were just some videos... that Han Siming needed to see, to know all the dirty tricks Dong Qin had played.

Including seizing opportunities recently, and things from four years ago.

Seeing Gu Mochen look so profoundly unfathomable, Han Siming’s heart missed a beat...

Because... in the conversation between Dong Qin and Sister Wang, including the conversation between Dong Qin and Wang Wu, there was a clear presence of Jian Ran.

Which means...

Han Siming finally understood why Gu Mochen was hostile towards Dong Qin.

"Big brother... I... I didn’t understand."

Some things are not clear unless spelled out. Gu Mochen looked at Han Siming before him and said softly, "Siming, to be honest, Tang Bao is the daughter of Jian Ran and me. Yes, your niece."

Gu Mochen’s voice was calm, showing little of his past emotions, his narrow dark eyes flickered with a masterful light like the vast ocean, daunting and unfathomable.

Though his expression was calm, inside, Gu Mochen was full of pride.

Indeed... because Tang Bao is his and Jian Ran’s daughter, a piece of news enough to spend a lifetime of luck to achieve.

The little loli was like a surprise fallen from the sky, making Gu Mochen feel that with his wife and daughter, he was no longer alone in this world.

Han Siming: "..."

Han Siming became stiff on the spot once again, feeling somewhat confused while watching the recent assault video without understanding the past events.

Now that he heard Gu Mochen say this, the color drained from his face.

"How is that possible... You didn’t know Ranran four years ago."
