Listening to the man’s domineering words, Jian Ran couldn’t refute and could only nod her head.
“Okay, thank you for the trouble.”
The two of them were clearly husband and wife, yet they were distant to the extreme.
Jian Ran looked at the man’s tall figure, the man who was clearly by her side, yet his thoughts were as deep as the ocean, utterly beyond her comprehension.
Jian Ran’s lips curled slightly as she followed Gu Mochen, one after the other, carrying all the dishes to the dining table in the living room.
Han Siming sat quietly at the dining table, and when he saw the figures of Jian Ran and Gu Mochen appear, he pursed his lips.
“No need, your sister-in-law and I will handle it, today you are a guest.”
A single word, ‘guest,’ had already come to represent his status.
Han Siming’s lips curled into a wry smile, “Okay, thanks, brother.”
Jian Ran observed the undercurrents between the two brothers and spoke softly, “Let’s eat while it’s hot, otherwise the food will get cold…
Mo Chen, are we going to the company this afternoon?
After all, I’ve already missed half a day of work this morning.”
Having said that, Jian Ran sweetly smiled.
Gu Mochen looked at Jian Ran, her lips adorned with a bright smile, yet the smile didn’t reach her eyes, clearly feigning intimacy in front of Han Siming.
Han Siming watched the affectionate exchanges between the two, feelings of discomfort stirring within him.
In front of him was laid a lavish meal of six dishes and one soup; although he hadn’t started eating, the aroma was already tantalizing.
He hadn’t expected Jian Ran’s culinary skills to be this good.
Han Siming picked up his chopsticks and took a piece of shrimp from in front of him, gently biting into it.
The taste was very fresh…
and the sauce was thick.
Very much like a private home-cooked meal…
“When did your cooking become so delicious?
I remember back in high school, you wouldn’t even touch spring water with your ten fingers.”
Han Siming’s words slipped out unconsciously, leaving Jian Ran somewhat embarrassed.
Back then, she was a high and mighty young lady from a prominent family, a daughter who naturally didn’t need to do such things.
She had always been pampered and well-cared for by Jian Anguo…
but now, that clearly wasn’t the case.
Jian Ran bit her lip gently and spoke softly, “People always need to learn to grow up.
Back then, I was a student and life was more comfortable, I suppose.
It’s different once you step into society.”
“If you like it, eat more.”
After saying that, Jian Ran smiled sweetly again.
Graceful and generous, she did her best to play the role of a good sister-in-law.
Han Siming watched as Jian Ran used her chopsticks to put some lotus root slices and meat on his plate, his thin lips pressed together.
The one who was once his most intimate lover, now could only express a stiff thank you.
Emotional discomfort filled Han Siming’s heart, making him feel quite miserable.
Jian Ran caught the agony in the man’s eyes, speaking softly, “Mmm…
you can come over for meals often if you have the time…
Mo Chen really enjoys the food I make.
I’ve really spoiled his stomach.”
Saying this, Jian Ran was like a little woman, coyly nestling into Gu Mochen’s embrace, looking very charming.
When it came to acting, she was actually not at all inferior to Gu Mochen.
Gu Mochen looked at the girl in his arms, his lips curling slightly, his smile growing even richer.
He reached his large hand around her slender waist, caressing Jian Ran’s delicate waist if only slightly, and spoke softly.
“Ranran, you’ve gotten too thin lately, eat more.”
