Gu Confronts Qin San, additional update 2 (5)_1 283: Chapter 283 Mr.

Gu Confronts Qin San, additional update 2 (5)_1 Jian Ran’s complexion changed slightly, she had indeed just eaten some osmanthus cake.

The osmanthus cake here was made quite uniquely, and it was all handmade, which she had always liked to eat very much.

Qin Mu knew her preference, so it was he who ordered it.

She hadn’t expected …

That it would be exposed through a kiss from Gu Mochen.

“Jian Ran, I didn’t know where you ate the osmanthus cake; you didn’t order osmanthus cake just now.”

Jian Ran: “…”

Realizing that the man’s exquisite ink-black eyes were tightly locking onto her, Jian Ran forced a smile at the corner of her mouth.

“Mr.

Gu, you …”

“Jian Ran, tell me, where exactly did you go just now?”

Jian Ran: “…”

Gu Mochen’s exquisite ink-black eyes gazed steadily at Jian Ran in his arms, his thin lips pressed tightly without any sign of relaxation.

Seeing this, Jian Ran had a sinking feeling in her heart.

She surely couldn’t betray Qin Mu.

And she couldn’t make up some nonsense about meeting some business partner.

Jian Ran took a deep breath and confessed proactively, “It’s like this, I just saw a friend, greeted him briefly, had something to eat, and then we separated, they’ve already left.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Mochen’s lips curved slightly, his fingertip rested on Jian Ran’s soft cherry-like lips.

His ink-black eyes were as deep and undisturbed as the ocean as he directly picked her up by the waist and held her in his arms.

“Hmm?”

“Jian Ran, I’m giving you a chance.

If I wanted to investigate, I could send someone to check the Blue Sky Building’s surveillance right now and see everything you just did.”

After hearing this, Jian Ran’s face changed slightly, and her whole body tensed tremendously.

What if Gu Mochen found out about Tang Bao’s existence?

What then?

By then, there would be no concealing Tang Bao.

Jian Ran’s hands interlocked, and she bit her lip.

“Mr.

Gu, I know it was wrong of me to make an excuse to leave, but it was a personal matter, and I really can’t discuss it with you.

If I promise not to go again, will that do?”

At these words, Gu Mochen tugged at the corner of his lips, his large hand clasping Jian Ran’s slender waist.

His ink-black eyes gleamed with amusement, but the smile didn’t quite reach the depths of his eyes.

“Mrs.

Gu, aren’t your personal matters something Mr.

Gu should know about?”

Jian Ran: “…”

The heck with being Mrs.

Gu.

Jian Ran fiercely despised Gu Mochen for a moment, but she really had nothing to retort with.

Gu Mochen leaned back in his chair, watching Jian Ran’s uncomfortable demeanor, with the corner of his lips barely hooking into a smile.

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

After a long while, Jian Ran finally spoke in a subdued voice.

“You’re right, Mr.

Gu.”

Jian Ran extended her hand, relying on her memory, she unlocked her phone, found Qin Mu’s message box, and sent him a message reading “leave.”

Jian Ran silently prayed that Qin Mu would understand her message and leave early with Tang Bao.

…

Gu Mochen watched the woman feigning ignorance and playing dumb beautifully, it seemed she was ready to play dumb to the very end with him.

The smile on Gu Mochen’s lips grew thicker by a few degrees, yet his ink-black eyes turned increasingly somber, eerily calm.

The more he acted like this, the more palpably trembling Jian Ran became.

She could clearly feel the man’s long fingers caressing her cheek.

Actually, Gu Mochen’s fingers were very beautiful, slender and fair…

they were comparable to an artist’s.

Every time Gu Mochen laid his hands on Jian Ran’s cheek, she couldn’t help but think of his hands provoking a fire along her waist.
