90: Chapter 90 Jian Ran I’ll Give You a Raise (1)_1 90: Chapter 90 Jian Ran I’ll Give You a Raise (1)_1 Elevator entrance:

Jian Ran’s smile curled at the corner of her mouth, but it didn’t reach her eyes, distant and polite.

“Professionally, I’m taking on the Han Family’s new building design project, and your concern should be about my capabilities,” she said coldly.

“Privately, President Han, we broke up four years ago, and you have no say over my relationship with Qin.

So, whether from a professional or private standpoint, I’m sorry, but there’s nothing I can tell you.”

Having said that, Jian Ran straightened her back and walked straight out of the elevator, not looking at the man behind her.

Han Siming had no words to retort, his handsome face filled with annoyance.

He had never intended to hurt her, yet the words that came out were inevitably sharp.

…

Han Siming’s presence had somehow disturbed Jian Ran’s mind, but the irritation wasn’t as intense as before.

Lunch break:

There was no call from Gu Mochen, but Jian Ran had already taken the initiative to go to the president’s office.

There was no sign of Gu Mochen in the office, and Jian Ran’s eyes widened in surprise when she heard noise from the rest area and subconsciously walked over.

In the kitchen of the rest area, Gu Mochen had taken off his suit jacket, his long, fair fingers washing fresh fruits and vegetables, and there was a delicious aroma coming from the pot.

Jian Ran’s eyes widened in surprise.

“President Gu…”

Had Gu Mochen changed?

Was he actually cooking?

“The dish is almost ready, go ahead and serve the rice.”

“Ah…

okay.”

Watching Gu Mochen elegantly set plate after plate of delicious food on the table, Jian Ran hurriedly served two bowls of rice and placed them on the dining table.

“Thank you, President Gu.”

Looking at the exquisite dishes on the table, although she hadn’t started eating yet, the aroma was tantalizing.

It was hard to imagine that the renowned Gu Mochen could actually cook…

“Let’s eat, no need to be polite with me.

I just wanted to try something different,” he said.

Jian Ran: “…”

Alright then.

Gu Mochen noticed Jian Ran’s face was still a bit pale, and he pursed his thin lips.

…

After finishing lunch, Jian Ran wanted to stand up to help clean up, but she saw the man proactively pour a glass of warm water and bring it over to her, his large hand resting on her shoulder with an undeniable authority.

There was also a box of Fenbid.

Jian Ran: “…”

This box of Fenbid, wasn’t it what Tang Bao bought last night?

They had no connection, so it seemed Gu Mochen also bought a box just like it.

Jian Ran felt a bit disheveled.

“President Gu, you…”

“You are an employee of the Gu Family, and I don’t want to see you looking ill.”

“Actually, this box…”

She already had this medicine because her daughter had bought it for her.

Jian Ran wanted to say something more, but facing Gu Mochen’s imposing dark eyes, she took the painkiller willingly.

“Thank you, President Gu.”

Gu Mochen smiled in satisfaction and, after watching Jian Ran grit her teeth to swallow the medicine, he extended his arm and pulled her into his embrace.

“Give me a smile and let’s see,” he said.

Jian Ran: “…”

Having seen Tang Bao’s bright smile the night before, the image often overlapped with Jian Ran’s smiles in Gu Mochen’s mind.

Therefore, he just wanted to see her bright smile.

Jian Ran squeezed out a trace of a smile, feeling a tingling on her scalp under Gu Mochen’s gaze, puzzled.

“A bit more radiant…”

“Like this?”

Jian Ran tugged at the corner of her mouth again, only to see Gu Mochen’s dark eyes deepen, furrowing his brow.

“Jian Ran, I’m going to give you a raise…”

“Really?”

Her beautiful eyes lit up, and she couldn’t help crying out in surprise, utterly overwhelmed.
