At Lan Xing’s words, Jian Ran’s face darkened slightly as she weakly looked up at Gu Mochen standing before her, the man’s handsome face subtly changing.
Right in front of her.
Inwardly, Jian Ran felt a turmoil of emotions, thinking that if Lan Xing ever found out the person she had put in a tight spot was Mrs.
Jian Ran couldn’t bring herself to think about what Lan Xing had said, focusing instead on quickly fastening the buttons on her chest.
The more hurried she became, the more tangled she got, failing to notice she had buttoned them incorrectly.
After Jian Ran finished buttoning up, she swiftly tossed her black silk shirt upwards and off.
“Supervisor, I’m changed, sorry for the trouble.”
Lan Xing believed Jian Ran had taken all of her threatening words to heart and huffed lightly, her eyes full of sarcasm.
“Hmm… cheap stuff, definitely bought from a small market.”
After finishing her words, Lan Xing left the restroom, clicking away in her high heels.
Jian Ran sighed with relief, hurriedly opening the dressing room door to escape the cramped space that made breathing difficult.
Conscious of her recent intimate actions with Gu Mochen, Jian Ran’s face reddened slightly, and she pursed her lips before speaking apologetically.
Gu, I’m sorry about earlier, I will be going out now.”
Without waiting for a response, Jian Ran headed towards the door, only to be stopped by Gu Mochen’s quick grasp on her slender wrist.
Jian Ran’s eyes widened in surprise, and she immediately clenched her fist.
“Is there something wrong?”
“You buttoned it wrong.”
Looking up at the towering figure of the man before her, Jian Ran saw his long fingers reach towards her neckline, and indeed, from the very first button, she had done it wrong.
She really had been too anxious.
Jian Ran’s complexion darkened slightly, the man’s fingertips seemingly electrified as they touched the skin at her collar, almost as if they could scorch her skin.
“I… I can fix it myself.”
Namesake without substance, strangers despite the bond.
Now, the man before her was nothing more than her superior.
Jian Ran constantly reminded herself of this.
Gu Mochen withdrew his hand, his gaze cool as he faced the woman before him, unaffected whether in favor or disgrace, quickly correcting the buttons.
Due to the height difference, he could see the grace of the woman in front of him.
Except that her fair skin had been reddened by the hot coffee Lan Xing had spilled on her earlier.
Gu Mochen averted his gaze imperceptibly.
Having corrected the buttons on her chest, the man’s magnetic voice resonated above Jian Ran’s head.
“Women, being smart is indeed endearing at times, but being too smart might not always be a good thing.”
“Jian Ran, congratulations, you’ve successfully passed probation… and become a member of the Gu Family design department.”
Jian Ran looked up at the man before her, pursing her lips, realizing it was all a test.
Gu, do you assess all new employees in this way?”
“Of course, namesake without substance, strangers despite the bond.
Gu, you didn’t think I was deliberately making things difficult for you in business matters, did you?”
Jian Ran tugged at the corner of her mouth, understanding that he was the big boss, yet he had outmaneuvered her.
Gu Mochen was truly a sly fox.
