Assistant to My Contracted Husband

81: Chapter 81 Fulfilling You is the Responsibility of a Husband (2)_1 81: Chapter 81 Fulfilling You is the Responsibility of a Husband (2)_1 The four dishes I cooked, and the soup stewed by Gu Mochen…

After tasting the spare rib soup the man had made, it was savory and incredibly refreshing.

Jian Ran couldn’t help but praise, “Thank you, Mr.

Gu, I think your cooking skills are quite impressive.

Actually, my own skills are far inferior to yours…

so…

for lunch, you could very well manage on your own…”

“But there’s a marriage certificate between the two of us, and that’s a wife’s duty…

just like earlier, satisfying you is my responsibility as a husband.”

Jian Ran: “…”

Sipping the soup in her bowl, Jian Ran almost spit it out.

Gu Mochen, with his repetitive actions, could give her the illusion that he cared about her, this man’s thoughts were as deep as the sea, a sly old fox, and she was no match for him at all.

…

In the afternoon, Jian Ran accompanied Gu Mochen back to the Gu Family.

As they went straight to the garage, not many people saw her.

Jian Ran breathed a sigh of relief and followed Gu Mochen into the elevator.

Inside the elevator, the two stood side by side, but Jian Ran’s back was covered with nervous sweat.

“Jian Ran, Lan Xing has already got three design projects lined up for signing this month, worth millions.”

Jian Ran listened to Gu Mochen’s cold voice rise beside her, and her eyes darkened.

Just yesterday, Secretary Zhou announced the new supervisor competition requirements, and she had already signed three…

Incredible speed…

After all, Lan Xing had been a manager at the Gu Family for many years and had his own network of contacts to some extent.

Jian Ran’s lips curved into a faint smile.

“Mr.

Gu, by saying this, are you trying to encourage me?

Or do you mean to use me to take out Lan Xing?

After all, Lan Xing belongs to Dong Qin.”

At this point, Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes were clear, like water.

Gu Mochen’s eyes narrowed slightly, and knowing that Jian Ran could be aware of this, mostly because of Lan Xing’s own bragging, he didn’t deny it.

“I believe this is a win-win situation, Jian Ran.

I am a businessman, time is money, and I don’t engage in loss-making deals.”

Jian Ran’s lips curled up, caught in the act, yet the man simply admitted it outright.

Her beautiful eyes twinkled slightly, a dark light flashing briefly at the bottom of her eyes.

What Gu Mochen didn’t know was that indeed, she had a grudge with Dong Qin.

If she could replace Lan Xing, it truly would be a win-win situation.

“Jian Ran, having someone like Lan Xing around you is a threat.

I think you understand what I mean by ‘eliminate future trouble’…

after all, I can’t always be by your side, like last time at Totem, to save you from President Cui’s hands.”

Jian Ran: “…”

Jian Ran’s eyes darkened.

With a ding, the elevator stopped on the floor of the Design Department.

Jian Ran straightened her back, the corners of her mouth twitching a bit.

“Understood!”

After saying this, Jian Ran headed directly towards the Design Department.

Gu Mochen’s handsome face, sculpted as if by a divine chisel, was contemplative as he watched Jian Ran’s departing figure, the corners of his mouth lifted in an almost imperceptible smirk.

It seemed as if he could still feel the delicate touch of the woman’s chest in the palm of his hand.

…

Just as Gu Mochen walked into his office, his phone rang; it was a call from Han Siming.

“Brother, I’ve made up my mind.

The design for the new Han Family building, leave it to Jian Ran from the Gu Family’s Design Department to handle.”

Having waited until Jian Ran had left, filled with guilt and discomfort, Han Siming didn’t have the courage to call Jian Ran directly but took the initiative to call Gu Mochen instead.

Gu Mochen: “…”

Jian Ran was just a newcomer in the Design Department.

Even though she had works to her name, they were merely selected, with no finished products yet.

Why was Han Siming so adamant about having Jian Ran take on the design?

Remembering that he found Jian Ran in front of the Han Family building just earlier, Gu Mochen’s eyes grew even deeper.
