202: Chapter 202 Good Morning Mrs.

Gu, Update 1 (9)_1 202: Chapter 202 Good Morning Mrs.

Gu, Update 1 (9)_1 Jian Ran spoke honestly, although when the Jian Family fell into trouble, the Qin Family did not extend a helping hand.

But she held great respect for Qin Mu’s grandfather and parents.

The elder Mr.

Qin squinted his eyes as he saw Jian Ran’s earnest demeanor.

This girl from the Jian Family, he had felt there was something different about her since she was little.

Those wealthy young ladies, each one is like a flower in a greenhouse.

Unable to withstand any hardship.

But this girl from the Jian Family had a backbone that oozed tenacity.

So, he thought she was extraordinary.

As it turned out, even though the Jian Family had collapsed and Jian Anguo had fallen, this daughter of the Jian Family was certainly not ordinary.

Now, Jian Ran was none other than Mrs.

Gu, which essentially meant she had risen to become a phoenix perched on high branches; from now on, the Jian Family was likely to prosper.

How could Qin Mu possibly afford to worship a Buddha like Jian Ran?

“Mrs.

Gu is too polite.

You’re a guest; how can you be cooking yourself?

Please take a seat, have some tea.

Breakfast is ready; once Mr.

Gu arrives, we can eat.”

Jian Ran: “…”

Elder Mr.

Qin really was being overly polite.

But the more polite he was, the more uncomfortable Jian Ran often felt.

Her small hand clenched a bit tighter as she looked at the elder Mr.

Qin in front of her and gently sipped from the tea cup.

“Alright, got it, elder…”

“Mmm.”

With Gu Mochen not present at the moment, Qin’s father hesitated, then after a thought, took the initiative to say,

“Mrs.

Gu, since Mr.

Gu isn’t here, there are some words I’m not sure whether to say or not?”

“Uncle Qin, please feel free to speak your mind.”

Jian Ran placed the blue and white porcelain cup on the table and spoke politely.

In fact, even if Qin’s father said nothing, she knew.

Elder Mr.

Qin, seeing Qin’s father take this approach, couldn’t help but speak out, “Enough…

what’s there to say, aren’t you just embarrassing our son?”

“Dad…

I know Mrs.

Gu is someone who understands the ways of the world, so, I think Mrs.

Gu should understand the difficulties of a father.”

Jian Ran listened to the father and son’s conversation, her lips pursing slightly.

So, elder Mr.

Qin and Uncle Qin were trying to butter her up.

The corners of Jian Ran’s mouth lifted in a faint smile, following Aunt Qin’s lead as she whispered,

“Mmm…

I understand the parental heart, Uncle Qin, please go ahead and speak frankly.”

“Alright, Mrs.

Gu, my youngest son, Qin San, grew up with you as childhood friends, and I know you two are very close, like siblings.

Ever since you were little, it was evident, but my son is stubborn.

In fact, his feelings for you are just brotherly, with no other intentions.

I hope, Mrs.

Gu, you don’t misunderstand.”

Jian Ran listened to Qin’s father’s words, knowing he was cautioning her about her relationship with Qin Mu.

“I understand,” she affirmed.

Qin Mu had always clamored about wanting to be an uncle to Tang Bao.

She had once tried to reject him cruelly.

But she could never quite bring herself to say it…

At times, she was too indecisive.

Perhaps after the Jian Family’s crisis, she could only rely on Tang Bao for the past four years, and when Qin Mu appeared, she subconsciously sensed a familial warmth.

That hint of kinship within, something she couldn’t bear to cut off.

Seeing Jian Ran deep in thought, Qin’s father continued, “If in the future little San behaves improperly, Mrs.

Gu, please forgive him.”

“And…

the Gu Family has always been one of the important partners of Dongheng International.

Mr.

Gu’s attitude towards Dongheng International is crucial, directly determining the company’s future development and revenue.

If Mr.

Gu has any misunderstandings about Qin Mu, Mrs.

Gu, don’t forget to put in a few good words for him.”

Jian Ran roughly understood Qin Father’s logic, that she must not cause any displeasure to Gu Mochen regarding her and Qin San’s relationship.

The corners of Jian Ran’s mouth lifted in a faint smile as she considered for a moment.

“Business is a matter between men, and after all, I am a woman.

As the old saying goes, the most important thing a woman should do is to support her husband and educate her children.

Although these are old-fashioned ideas, I, even though holding a position at the Gu Family, do not meddle in Mo Chen’s company affairs, especially matters of cooperation between the Gu Family and Dongheng International.”

After a pause, Jian Ran successfully noticed the look of concern on the faces of Qin’s father and mother, including elder Mr.

Qin, and adjusted her tone to continue speaking.

“However, Mo Chen is also a reasonable person.

I think he won’t let personal issues affect business matters, so elder, Uncle Qin, Aunt Qin, there’s no need for you to worry.”

She was poised and dignified, both gracious and commanding.

Truly like Jian Ran.

Gu Mochen heard every word Jian Ran said.

Gu Mochen’s lips curved up in satisfaction as he made his way towards the sofa, saying,

“Ranran is right.”

Jian Ran heard the magnetic voice behind her and paused, then turned around to see Gu Mochen’s tall figure approaching.

His dark eyes twinkled with a charming light, a firm affirmation and admiration of her just-spoken words.

Elder Mr.

Qin, along with Qin’s father and mother, had initially hoped for a verbal promise from Jian Ran but hadn’t expected Gu Mochen to have overheard, leading to a moment of embarrassment.

Upon seeing this, elder Mr.

Qin spoke up, “Mr.

Gu, please don’t take offense.

This grandson of mine, accustomed to being a rascal, has kept me worried.”

“Not at all.

Parents’ love is universal; I understand,” Gu Mochen replied as he slightly narrowed his dark eyes, his presence commanding.

As he sat down next to Jian Ran, he extended his hand to wrap around her slender waist and leaned in close.

“You really are my woman; you did well just now.”

At Gu Mochen’s compliment, Jian Ran’s heart fluttered slightly.
