Although she couldn’t hear clearly what Gu Mochen was saying, she could distinctly tell that he was in a good mood. The woman on the other end of the line managed to make Gu Mochen’s lips curve upward, brightening his mood as well. It seemed… A confidante, indeed. Jian Ran curled her lips, feeling frustrated that even if he already had a confidante, he still dominated her and wouldn’t let go. All men are the same, eating from the bowl while eyeing the pot. With a man like Gu Mochen, the most important thing is to guard one’s heart; otherwise… One could become as extreme as Lan Xing. … When Gu Mochen heard noises from the bathroom, he turned around and saw Jian Ran looking somewhat awkward. Jian Ran’s damp hair was strewn over her shoulders, wearing the conservative cotton pajamas prepared by the Qin Family, not the sexy kind. But somehow, Gu Mochen found Jian Ran exuding a sexy appeal. His narrow eyes narrowed slightly, a glint of ripples passing through them, and his gaze on Jian Ran heated up unusually. A beauty fresh from the bath, her fair skin blushed from her recent wash, resembling cherries, always tempting one to move closer for a gentle bite. “I’ve finished bathing.” Jian Ran forced a smile at the corners of her mouth and then said softly, “It’s getting late, I’m going to sleep first.” Having said that, Jian Ran hurried toward the big bed and wrapped herself up tight, completely on guard against Gu Mochen as if warding off a wolf. Gu Mochen: “…” Gu Mochen watched Jian Ran walk toward the big bed with her damp hair, and his thin lips pursed. “Wait a moment, your hair isn’t dry. Let me take care of it.” Jian Ran, startled by Gu Mochen approaching her, staggered and quickly sat up straight. “I can do it myself… President Gu, didn’t you say one should pay attention to their appearance? Can I… can I put on my clothes now?” Gu Mochen watched Jian Ran quickly get off the bed, then handed him the clothes from the bathroom rack, and headed back into the bathroom. “President Gu, please call me after you’ve changed clothes.” Gu Mochen: “…” Actually, sleeping naked… Gu Mochen really didn’t have such an exaggerated habit; initially, it was more about teasing Jian Ran. He truly managed to spoil Jian Ran. Gu Mochen quickly changed into his clothes, then walked briskly to the bathroom door and knocked. “I’m dressed now; come out after you’ve blown your hair dry.” “Okay.” Gu Mochen casually picked up a towel and dried his damp hair. His gaze landed on a brown medicine bottle on the sofa. Wasn’t this the thing Jian Ran had always clutched tightly in her hand? Later, she put it into her handbag. Perhaps when Jian Ran was using her phone earlier, she didn’t notice and took the medicine bottle out again. Gu Mochen’s lips tightened, he picked up the medicine bottle and held it in his hand. He then opened the bottle, took a quick whiff, and his expression slightly changed. This place… Clearly contains the dosage components of a love potion, and just by taking a simple sniff, one can distinctly feel one’s body becoming restless. If I’m not guessing wrong, it’s an aphrodisiac. … Jian Ran cleaned herself up in the bathroom, drying her hair and then tying it into a high ponytail to avoid any inconvenience during sleep or having any further interaction with Gu Mochen. When she exited the bathroom, she saw Gu Mochen, fully dressed, holding in his hand the bottle of medicine that Lan Xing had given her that afternoon. Jian Ran’s face slightly changed, and she spoke unnaturally. “Mr. Gu, you…” “Who gave you this?” Jian Ran: “…” Upon hearing Gu Mochen’s interrogation, Jian Ran coughed and pursed her lips, saying, “Just a colleague, it’s perfume, give it to me.” Having said that, Jian Ran raised her foot, intending to take the bottle from Gu Mochen’s hand, but he firmly grasped her wrist, immobilizing her completely. “Jian Ran… who exactly gave you this? This is an aphrodisiac.” Jian Ran: “…” Jian Ran hadn’t expected Gu Mochen to be fully aware, her complexion darkening. She didn’t retort but instead looked into the eyes of the man in front of her and said softly, “Whether you believe it or not, I had no intention of using… this drug. It was given to me by someone else, and then because of special circumstances, it ended up staying with me.” As she spoke, Jian Ran tugged at the corner of her mouth. “I think, that person, even if I don’t say it, you should know… To give me an aphrodisiac, looking for an opportunity to act… the target can only be you.” “Is it Lan Xing?” Gu Mochen thought for a moment and then spoke with almost certainty. Jian Ran: “…” It was indeed Gu Mochen. Jian Ran nodded in response to the man’s words, spoken without a moment’s hesitation.

As Gu Mochen listened to what Jian Ran was saying, his aura became a few degrees colder, his dark eyes fixated on the woman before him, he asked in return. “Did you agree to it?” “No… I rely on my strength to win. It’s just that when I was about to return this bottle to her, Secretary Zhou called me for something.” “The reason I didn’t want to tell you at first was that I didn’t want to gossip and stir up trouble.” Upon reaching this point, Jian Ran’s eyes were pure and clear as she looked directly at Gu Mochen. If you have done nothing wrong, you have nothing to fear.’ Besides… Gu Mochen’s lips curled up slightly, looking at the calm and composed girl before him, his tall figure approached, towering over her as he looked down at Jian Ran. “I thought you wanted to do something to me, Jian Ran, why do I feel somewhat disappointed upon learning the truth?” Hearing the man’s shameless words, Jian Ran pressed her lips together, her heart filled with disdain. How could she want to do anything with him when she was guarding against him like one would against a wolf? Was Gu Mochen overthinking it?
