After Secretary Zhou finished that sentence and realized he had said the wrong thing, he hurriedly added, “I’ll keep driving, sorry, Mr.

Gu.”

“Mm.”

Jian Ran, upon hearing Secretary Zhou’s words, appeared taken aback, not liking children?

Why not?

Children are so cute, although sometimes they can be quite naughty and make one both laugh and cry, but ever since Tang Bao came along, the whole world has become exceptionally brighter.

“Mr.

Gu, do you not like children?”

“I like girls, not boys.”

Jian Ran: “…”

Why?

Mo Chen looked at Jian Ran, who clearly wanted to know the reason behind his preferences and pursed his lips slightly.

“Girls have sweeter smiles, they’re brighter.”

As he said this, Gu Mochen was reminded of the sweet way Tang Bao used to call him ‘uncle’, her smile as sweet as if it was the first sun in winter, melting the snow in his heart.

Jian Ran grew startled upon hearing Gu Mochen’s response.

For some reason…

When Gu Mochen said that girls have sweeter smiles, she couldn’t help but think of her own Little Tang Bao.

The little girl, every time she smiled, it was as if she had eaten sugar, sweet…

Just too adorable.

“And boys?”

“Too mischievous, I don’t like them.”

Jian Ran: “…”

So it turned out that Gu Mochen had such peculiar tastes.

Jian Ran had been unaware of this before.

If not for Secretary Zhou’s hurried slip of the tongue, she would have never fathomed the depths of Gu Mochen’s thoughts.

…

The inside of the car became very quiet for a moment, so quiet you could almost hear a pin drop.

After a pause, Gu Mochen uncrossed and recrossed his legs before speaking again.

“That’s why, in the future, I would like to have a daughter.”

Jian Ran: “…”

Why…

Why did she feel that Gu Mochen was looking intently at her when he said those words?

And the implications seemed very clear.

Especially since she could distinctly tell that his gaze now lingered unabashedly on her flat abdomen.

Jian Ran thought to herself…

In fact, Mr.

Gu, you do have a daughter.

Cough cough, albeit one dragged in as an extra, nominally, she really is your daughter.

Your wish has come true.

Words at the tip of her tongue, Jian Ran dared not to voice them out.

If Gu Mochen knew about Tang Bao’s existence, who knows how crazed he could get?

“Cough cough…

Is that so, Mr.

Gu, you have a good idea.”

Jian Ran forced a smile at the corners of her mouth, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

Gu Mochen noticed the woman’s subtle movements and the corners of his lips quirked up slightly.

“Mm…”

“Jian Ran, do you have any objections?”

Having children…

Naturally, you need Mrs.

Gu for that.

Jian Ran: “…”

The implication was too obvious; if Jian Ran couldn’t catch it, she would be a fool.

Jian Ran chose to ignore it and deliberately changed the subject.

“Mr.

Gu, do you know how much longer it will take to reach the Qin family?”

“Such matters also require Mrs.

Gu’s input, two hands need to clap together, so of course, I should ask Mrs.

Gu.”

Jian Ran: “…”

Shameless.

“I wonder what the food is like at old Mr.

Qin’s house.”

Choosing to feign ignorance, Jian Ran saw that Gu Mochen picked up on her subtle behavior.

His narrow, long eyes narrowed slightly, a glimmer of rippling light flashing through them.
