Page 898 of Assistant to My Contracted Husband

Jian Ran met Secretary Zhou’s respectful gaze and responded with a faint smile.

...

Although it was only a 5-minute walk from the design department to the garage, Jian Ran felt as if she had walked through an entire century.

Once inside the car, Jian Ran quickly sat in the back seat, picked up her earphones, plugged them into her phone, and checked the video.

Secretary Zhou did not suspect anything, thinking that Jian Ran was watching the latest TV series update.

...

As Jian Ran opened the video, she saw the scene it depicted – the Gu Family’s underground garage - and her complexion subtly changed.

And then... the people in the video... Jian Ran’s face turned even paler.

It was Gu Mochen... Secretary Zhou, Wang Wu, Dong Qin, Mrs. Wang...

And Gu Mochen’s bodyguards by his side.

Mrs. Wang... The matter from 4 years ago... Who orchestrated it all? Sorry, I can’t tolerate sand in my eyes; hence, if you dare to lie, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Mr. Gu, it was her who bribed the people from Yeyan International to drug your room, and it was also her who sent someone to lure Jian Ran to your room... and then... she even planned to record a video to expose the scandal between you and Jian Ran.

She was after the shares back then... She wanted to make you unable to lift your head in front of Gu Wei, so that you couldn’t get the shares of the Gu Family, and also wanted Han Siming to hate you... It was all orchestrated by this woman.

Because the wiring burnt out that year, the video wasn’t captured properly, and as Jian Ran ran away the next day.

.. we couldn’t catch them in the act, so only we knew of this matter, Madam.

.. After finding out 4 years later that Jian Ran married you and became Mrs. Gu, she guessed that neither of you knew about the events of 4 years ago, nor about the child’s parentage, so.

.. she figured she’d find the most despicable, vile, and disgraceful man to be Jian Ran’s man.

.. to be Tang Bao’s father, just to humiliate Jian Ran.

If you... could divorce, that would be the best, as then the twenty percent shares of the Gu Family could also be returned.

The conversation between Mrs. Wang and Gu Mochen rang in her ears like some demonic curse.

Jian Ran was completely... frozen on the spot.

What does this mean...

Jian Ran’s face turned deathly pale with absolutely no trace of blood, and it took her a long while to finally understand the intricacies of the situation.

Big tears, the size of soybeans, fell from her eyes like pearls, dripping onto the back of Jian Ran’s hand and the screen of her phone.

This was... What kind of cruel joke was God playing with her?

Gu Mochen was actually Tang Bao’s biological father.

Jian Ran cried uncontrollably, struggling to accept this reality for a while.

Even... back then... it wasn’t an accident.

It was a trap...

All orchestrated by Dong Qin.

Even Wang Wu’s appearance a few days ago was Dong Qin setting a trap.

Jian Ran felt... she was the biggest victim within this wealthy circle.

How utterly innocent she was...

The Jian Family faced calamity, her boyfriend’s mother offered her money, she chose not to accept it out of pitiful pride... yet she was forced to get involved in the stepmother’s scheme against her own son.

That night... It existed like a nightmare.

The man’s brutal cruelty still haunts her mind to this day.

Jian Ran sniffled, realizing that it wasn’t just her who was the innocent one.

What about Tang Bao...

...

Secretary Zhou never expected that watching the video would bring Jian Ran to tears, and in a panic, couldn’t help but ask, "Madam, what’s wrong, why are you crying?"
