Chapter 2014: Chapter 461: Do Your Best to Satisfy Your Wife (Part 3)
Jian Ran looked at Officer Lu as he spoke animatedly, and her mood involuntarily brightened.
"Officer Lu, I’m really grateful to you for coming all the way to France to help me."
"You’re welcome, Mrs. Gu. This is what we should do. I really respect both you and Mr. Gu for your character. Mr. Gu has done a great job building up Yuncheng City over the years and has also done a lot of charity. Our Yuncheng City really owes a big thanks to Mr. Gu."
Listening to Officer Lu’s praise for Gu Mochen, Jian Ran felt proud from the bottom of her heart.
"It’s still troublesome..."
"Haha, it’s our duty. Well, Mrs. Gu, I’ll go and get on with my work. I’ll let you know as soon as there’s any progress on the case."
"Okay, thank you."
...
After bidding farewell to Officer Lu, Jian Ran directly got into Secretary Zhou’s car to return to the company.
With Gu Mochen’s brilliant plan, the problem was easily resolved.
When she arrived at the company, Gu Mochen had just finished two back-to-back meetings and was ready to take a break.
Jian Ran stood at the door of the meeting room, and when she saw Gu Mochen coming out, she greeted him proactively.
"All done?"
"Yeah, all’s good. Let’s go back to the office first."
"Alright..."
The company staff, having worked here for a long time, saw the boss’s wife for the first time and eagerly came forward to greet her warmly.
Jian Ran responded with a gentle smile and warmly said to everyone, "Thank you for your hard work."
...
Worried that Jian Ran might be exhausted, Gu Mochen gently held her small hand and led her to walk hand in hand into the CEO’s office. Looking at the man’s strong figure, Jian Ran couldn’t help but smile slightly.
"Mochen dear, how are you so smart... I used the test report to give them all a hard slap... It felt amazing."
Jian Ran couldn’t stop praising Gu Mochen.
Seeing the bright smile on the woman’s lips, Gu Mochen softly replied, "Hmm, then could I get a bit more allowance next month?"
Jian Ran: "..."
How things have changed.
Before, she used to pester Gu Mochen to give her a raise.
Now, after their marriage, with the financial power handed over, it was Gu Mochen himself asking her for more allowance.
Jian Ran tugged at the corners of her mouth, pretended to ponder for a moment, and then playfully patted Gu Mochen’s shoulder.
"Alright, since you’ve been so good today... raise it."
"Hmm, how about yesterday night?"
Jian Ran: "..."
"Can it be raised a bit?"
Jian Ran: "..."
Last night was anything but restrained, like a hungry wolf kept waiting for too long.
Jian Ran’s face blushed uncontrollably, and she replied with a hint of anger, "Your skill last night was terrible, negative review... reducing your allowance..."
Gu Mochen: "..."
Watching the woman’s shy demeanor, Gu Mochen’s lips curled slightly, feeling very pleased as he gazed at Jian Ran.
"Hmm."
Gu Mochen raised his hand to gently stroke her hair, wrapping his large hand around her slender waist, and enticingly said, "Tonight, I’ll make sure you’re satisfied."
"Shameless..."
Jian Ran was really fed up with Gu Mochen.
...
Back in the CEO’s office, Little Cubao was being well cared for by the staff.
Usually, Little Cubao didn’t like hanging around with Gu Mochen, Qin San, Huo Zun, Secretary Zhou, and those guys at all. But whenever he came across a beautiful woman, he turned so amiable, especially leaning towards someone’s chest so directly, truly showing his true flirtatious nature.
Jian Ran, tugging at the corners of her mouth, felt a bit fed up with her own Little Cubao and asked proactively, "How long has he been awake?"
"Mrs. Gu, about ten minutes."
"Hmm... then he can play for a bit, thank you so much."
"You’re welcome, Mrs. Gu."
Jian Ran took Little Cubao into her arms from the staff, murmuring softly, "Little flirt..."
Jian Ran unbuttoned her blouse slightly, a subtle act that immediately excited Little Cubao, making him giggle adorably.
Little Cubao instantly snuggled into mommy’s chest and had his fill, looking very content.
So happy.
Gu Mochen held the little one in his arms, patting his back to prevent him from choking on milk.
"What do you want to eat? I’ll accompany you now."
"No need, just ask Secretary Zhou to order some Chinese food later. No need to go out intentionally. I know you have meetings all afternoon."
"Okay... I’ll make sure to order you some more soup. Dad called to remind me, saying you need more soup since you’re feeding Cubao now."
Drinking more soup makes the milk more abundant.
Jian Ran grimaced slightly, feeling quite fed up.
Seems... she had turned into a nanny.
"Alright, alright, now you’ve practically become dad’s biological son. If he has any issues, he wouldn’t come to me, he’d go directly to you. You two, double-teaming me."
Though she seemed to be complaining, her words were sweet nonetheless.
Gu Mochen treated Jian Anguo with genuine filial piety, being more considerate and attentive than Jian Ran herself.
So Jian Anguo just grew to like his son-in-law more and more.
Gu Mochen, coaxing Little Cubao in his arms, smiled slightly, "Mommy is jealous..."
"No..."
"Mommy won’t admit it..."
"Hmm."
Jian Ran: "..."
The subtle interactions between Little Cubao and Gu Mochen left Jian Ran amused.
Neither the father nor the son were any good.
...
After coaxing Little Cubao to sleep, Jian Ran ordered the meal and skimmed through some French social news.
The report on Zuo Wei’s inspection had already been published, and it thoroughly embarrassed President Zuo.
Actually, if the report had been released last night, the slap in the face wouldn’t have felt as satisfying.
Now, with the media coverage at its peak after the stir, hitting back hard has an excellent impact.
Soon, Secretary Zhou delivered the ordered meal, and Jian Ran couldn’t help but ask Gu Mochen as she drank the fish soup heartily.
"Mochen... how long do you think the shareholders’ meeting will take this afternoon?"
"If everything goes well, about a minute."
Jian Ran pursed her lips, surprised at Gu Mochen’s nonchalance.
"Basically, we’re just announcing Carlo’s bankruptcy... nothing else needs much explanation. Being concise is better."
"Alright, as you say."
"I’ve booked a flight for the evening. We’ll fly back to Yuncheng City and leave this mess to France. Our wedding is the priority."
Listening to his words, promised like an oath, Jian Ran felt warm inside.
If everything goes well, leaving the mess to France, when the time comes... France might end up in chaos... eventually seeking Gu Mochen’s help.
"Okay."
