Gu Confronts Qin San, additional update 2 (9)_1 Speaking of this, Qin Mu’s handsome face beamed with pride and self-satisfaction.

Well, taking advantage of Jian Ran in public wasn’t such a bad thing either.

Jian Ran: “…”

Both men were really more childish than the other.

Jian Ran’s heart was about to leap to her throat, but the men were going back and forth, leaving her no chance to interject.

Jian Ran’s delicate hand clenched slightly, then she spoke up, “Gu Mochen, he just loves to joke around.”

Qin Mu raised an eyebrow and hurriedly said, “I’m not joking, this is my girl.”

Gu Mochen’s thin lips twitched slightly, aware that Qin Mu was also a well-known playboy in Yuncheng City.

In his early years, it was rumored that he never recovered from a heartbreak.

While his private life might not be known to the public, he was still a ladies’ man.

Having a child out of wedlock…

wasn’t really a surprising thing.

However, wasn’t Qin Mu interested in Jian Ran?

How could he stand having another woman’s daughter?

Thinking of this, Gu Mochen’s dark eyes remained calm as he began to speak in an even tone.

“Sorry, but I’m not particularly interested in Qin Mu’s private life, nor is it appropriate for me to know more.”

“Is that so?

But you know, Mr.

Gu, I’m very interested in your private life.”

As he spoke, Qin Mu ignored the chill on Gu Mochen’s handsome face and continued to provoke him.

“I used to think our Ran was widowed…

but things didn’t turn out as desired.

By the way, Mr.

Gu, if you were to marry Ran and something happened to you, the marital assets are split equally…

Ran would instantly become a little wealthy lady.”

Jian Ran suddenly felt like…

she was competing with Gu Mochen to see who would live longer, just to split the property.

This Gu Mochen…

With vast wealth at his disposal, he indeed had no place to spend it all.

Giving half to herself…

Thinking of this, the corners of Jian Ran’s mouth twitched.

Qin Mu’s words were…

indeed incisive.

Qin Mu was mocking the fact that he had professed his own husband in front of Gu Mochen, who remained unmoved by it.

“Mr.

Gu, you’re already 30 years old this year, and our Ran is just 22…

That’s a three-year gap at every stage, the chasm between you two is no small thing.”

Jian Ran: “…”

In other words, he was mocking Gu Mochen for being old.

Jian Ran silently admired Qin Mu’s audacity, but in truth, she was really worried for him.

Gu Mochen’s thin lips twitched again…

Age…

Well, with age comes the fact that he indeed had married a young and tender wife.

Furthermore…

In case of a divorce, the wife could take half of her husband’s assets, which was clearly stated in the prenuptial agreement he had signed with Jian Ran.

From beginning to end, what Jian Ran had taken from him was merely a million.

Gu Mochen’s large hand gently caressed Jian Ran’s soft and delicate hand.

Divorce, age…

Qin Mu really was tossing one heavy bomb after another at him.

Gu Mochen seemed even more composed, his handsome face revealing no emotions, as Qin Mu continued to speak.

“And another thing, Mr.

Gu…

I am aware of your ruthless business tactics over the years, showing no mercy…

I understand that Dongheng International might have established itself in Yuncheng City, but it really doesn’t meet your standards; it’s not a match for the Gu Family’s prowess.”

“But I won’t be intimidated, even if you were to sue up to the old man, I won’t even flinch.”

“Qin the Third, you’re saying too much,” Jian Ran cut in as she saw Qin Mu grow increasingly unrestrained in his speech.

“It’s not too much…

I just can’t stand seeing someone act so high and mighty.”

“President Gu…

when it comes to Ran girl, I won’t give up, not even if you take down my Dongheng International…

I don’t care.”

Gu Mochen: “…”

This Qin Mu…

was indeed genuine.

Jian Ran…

truly had a remarkably good childhood friend.

There was a fleeting, mocking smile at the corner of Gu Mochen’s mouth.

“Unexpectedly, the Qin Family from Yuncheng City does have a remarkable lineage.

Qin the Younger, you feel this way, coveting a married woman.

Does Old Master Qin know about this?”

As he spoke, a chilling light flashed through Gu Mochen’s dark eyes, and the atmosphere suddenly froze over.

Gu Mochen looked pleased as he saw Qin Mu stiffen slightly, then continued.

“Well, Dongheng International…

indeed doesn’t catch my eye, but that may not be the case for the Qin Family…

I assume since you don’t care about Dongheng International, you wouldn’t care about the entire Qin Family either, right?

Old Master Qin is already 80, and if you want him to live out his years in peace, you’d better start being more sensible.”

He paused before continuing in a light and breezy tone.

“I’ve heard your eldest and second brothers are in politics and the military…

I reckon they wouldn’t want to get dragged down by a reckless younger brother either.”

Having said that, Gu Mochen’s gaze became even more intense as he stared at the pale-faced Qin Mu in front of him.

Qin Mu was, in essence, too immature.

Claiming he would do anything for Jian Ran…

But he couldn’t ignore the reality.

In reality…

with the pressure of the Qin Family, with Old Master Qin in power…

There was no way Jian Ran could enter the Qin Family’s gates as a married woman.

…

As Jian Ran listened to Gu Mochen’s words, she pursed her lips.

He certainly knew how to use the force of his words appropriately after years in the business world.

Qin Mu was indeed far too naive compared to Gu Mochen.

It just goes to show, experience does trump youth.

Jian Ran’s lips curled into a mocking smile, choosing not to intervene.

Sometimes…

her repeated interventions had no effect on Qin Mu whatsoever.

Gu Mochen’s words, on the other hand, had a far greater deterrent power.

Jian Ran’s palms were still sweaty…

Feeling Gu Mochen’s warm hand tighten around her smaller one, she darkened her gaze.

“Qin the Younger, Han Siming made this mistake…

I think he must have already provided you with a lesson.

Now it seems you’ve still not grasped the essence of it,” Gu Mochen said with slightly narrowed eyes, then after a pause, he spoke with conviction.

“There’s a lot you cannot promise to Jian Ran.

Luckily, I can.

So, I’m sorry to say, I have the upper hand.”

Having said that, Gu Mochen’s lips curled into a satisfied smile.

“Mrs.

Gu, let’s go home,” he said with finality, his voice resonating powerfully, leaving Qin Mu’s complexion even paler.

Before, Han Siming had given up on Ran girl because of Dong Qin.

Now, I have Old Master Qin and the entire Qin Family by my side.

Indeed…

Both Han Siming and I couldn’t make promises to Jian Ran, but Gu Mochen can.
