Gu, 1 more update(3)_1 “Mm.”

Jian Ran was directly embraced by Gu Mochen, and the man made no further moves.

At first, she felt a bit nervous, but gradually calmed her breathing.

“Mr.

Gu, I can’t breathe when you hold me like this.”

“Then you can kiss me, and I’ll breathe for you.”

Jian Ran: “…”

Made speechless by Gu Mochen’s shameless remark, Jian Ran’s lips twitched.

Being held by him in such a manner, with the man resting his head on her shoulder in an intimate gesture, yet there was little desire in it.

Her hands intertwined, she was held by Gu Mochen and her breathing slowly steadied, feeling that she wasn’t struggling to breathe anymore.

Gu Mochen watched as Jian Ran gradually let down her guard in his arms, and his thin lips curved slightly.

There was a pleasant fragrance at Jian Ran’s neck, freshly bathed and scented with shower gel.

It smelled good.

A woman doesn’t need luxurious and expensive perfumes; often, the scent of shower gel is very pleasant.

“Jian Ran, two years ago when we got married, I didn’t have anyone investigate your background in detail.”

Gu Mochen’s plain words sounded in her ear.

Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes widened in surprise as she looked up at the man in front of her—his handsome face, devilishly crafted, truly favored by the Creator above all men.

He hadn’t investigated?

She had thought that Gu Mochen would have dug into her past in great detail before agreeing to marry her.

After all, his thoughts were profound and intricate, not something others could manipulate.

Jian Ran pursed her lips, lifting her gaze to the man before her.

Gu Mochen’s dark eyes were deep and exquisite, like the vast ocean, pulling her in like a whirlpool.

“Why?”

“Because, when we signed the agreement, your gaze did not linger on me…

Your eyes were unfocused.”

Jian Ran: “…”

Just because of that?

Jian Ran found it hard to believe and tried to sit up straight, but she was enveloped in the man’s embrace, forced to rest on his arm, listening to his strong heartbeat.

Beneath this action, Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes flickered momentarily.

At home, this was the same gesture her father and mother would share.

This gesture was a classic one between husband and wife.

The wife, wrapped in the man’s arms, listening to his strong heartbeat, an act of enormous intimacy.

Bringing their hearts infinitely close to each other.

With a slightly hoarse voice, shaken by Gu Mochen’s words, Jian Ran said, “You mean to say, I wasn’t interested in you?”

“Right, every woman in Yuncheng City wants to be associated with me, except for you.

You didn’t even care about my identity as Gu Mochen; you had your own concerns,” he paused.

“Back then, I thought…

a woman like this…

would be the most suitable candidate to be Mrs.

Gu.”

Jian Ran chuckled without humor.

At that time, all she cared about was Tang Bao’s illness, and Jian Anguo’s second trial.

What she thought was, no matter who this man was, as long as he could give her the one million quickly.

Little did she know, it was this that left a deep impression on Gu Mochen, making him think she was the most suitable candidate to be Mrs.

Gu.

“Mm….”

Jian Ran curled the corners of her lips, in denial, she did have to thank Gu Mochen.

If it weren’t for the million Gu Mochen gave her two years ago…

it would have been impossible to resolve the troubles facing her, Tang Bao, and the lawsuit of Jian Anguo.
