Jian Ran had no idea how to respond to Gu Mochen’s question regarding whether a man was adequate…
Yet, the man’s eyes, sharp as a hawk’s, stared at her, leaving her nowhere to hide.
A moment later, Jian Ran squeezed out a smile at the corner of her mouth.
“Sorry, Gu Mochen, I was just joking,” she said.
Gu Mochen gazed at the woman’s gentle beauty, which was stunning and breathtaking.
He had seen many women before.
But none like Jian Ran.
Quiet as a maiden but lively as a startled rabbit, yet trying to discern her thoughts was exceptionally difficult.
Gu Mochen’s eyes narrowed again as he spoke nonchalantly, “Really?
Sorry, I was serious.”
Couldn’t the two of them just have a nice, simple chat?
With him above and her below, their positions were incredibly awkward.
Jian Ran’s face blushed furiously; she had no idea where to look…
She couldn’t let her gaze fall upon Gu Mochen’s eyes because she would quickly get lost in them.
And as for looking at the man’s chest, with his strong physique…
It was simply too hard to look directly at him.
Jian Ran tried to empty her gaze, while Gu Mochen’s eyes unscrupulously enjoyed the view of the woman beneath him, as if admiring a piece of art.
“Gu Mochen, Tang Bao is right beside us.
If… you’re going to do something, I’ll wake her up,” she said.
Out of patience, Jian Ran could only play her last card.
With Tang Bao lying on the bed beside them, she didn’t believe that Gu Mochen would really do anything…
Even though the bed was very big…
It was ample enough for Gu Mochen to make his move.
A hint of darkness sparked in the depths of Gu Mochen’s eyes as his lips curved slightly, speaking casually.
“Threatening me?” he asked.
“Not at all, I’m merely stating a fact,” Jian Ran replied.
In the air between them, the atmosphere became somewhat pointed.
A playful smile deepened on the corners of Gu Mochen’s mouth, his lips curving slightly.
“Jian Ran… Call me ‘husband’, and I’ll let you go… Otherwise… you know, even with Tang Bao here, I have ways to torment you without waking her,” he teased.
After speaking, Gu Mochen’s hand slid into Jian Ran’s collar as if it were his right.
Jian Ran’s complexion changed.
Just as she was about to cry out in shock, Gu Mochen’s lips covered hers precisely, making it impossible for her to speak normally.
All that escaped her were muffled sounds.
As Gu Mochen kissed her deeper, Jian Ran quickly realized that this man would stop at nothing.
After a long while, the man nonchalantly left the woman’s soft lips, as delicate as cherry blossoms, and spoke leisurely.
“So?” he asked, the implication being, are you convinced now?
It was either call him ‘husband’ or be devoured.
The man’s hand lingered inside her clothing, ready to seize any opportunity.
Jian Ran took a deep breath.
When it came to Gu Mochen…
Such an inscrutable man, once made an enemy, is truly like stepping into an abyss.
After a long while, Jian Ran spoke in irritation, “Husband.”
Jian Ran’s voice was pleasant, soft…
Soothing as spring water, it plucked at the strings of Gu Mochen’s heart.
His smile grew more mischievous, and he satisfactorily leaned down to kiss the woman’s lips once more.
