very familiar, because she herself was Mrs.
Seeing Jian Ran’s distant demeanor, the crowd was even more puzzled about how capable Jian Ran really was.
“Hehe, let us know if you need anything, Jian Ran.
I have faith in you, you’re definitely going to be promoted…”
Designer, Senior Designer, Manager, Design Director.
Probably, she wouldn’t be able to get promoted any time soon.
Jian Ran’s lips curved into a faint smile as she said softly, “Let’s get to work, it’s getting late.”
Hearing Jian Ran’s distant words, everyone could only leave in disgruntlement.
Because of the injury to her foot, which was quite painful, Jian Ran couldn’t stand for long periods of time, so she hadn’t prepared lunch.
At noon, the office phone rang, and Jian Ran pursed her lips before swiftly picking up.
“I’m sorry, President Gu, I didn’t prepare lunch today, and besides, I’m very busy and it’s inconvenient for me to move around.
You should eat by yourself.”
After speaking, Jian Ran hung up the phone directly.
It was inconvenient for her to walk, and going to the cafeteria was also troublesome, but thankfully, she had brought some bread.
Gu Mochen stared at the phone he had just been hung up on, his brows furrowing.
Jian Ran was definitely the first person to dare hang up on him.
“Secretary Zhou, help me check what Jian Ran is actually busy with.”
Please, President Gu, I am after all a chief secretary of the president, and you’re asking me to check on what Miss Jian is doing right now?
Isn’t that a bit of a waste of my skills?
She’s just an ordinary new employee in the design department.
Gu Mochen’s eyes moved slightly as if he had thought of something and said, “Hold on, go to the drugstore and buy some iodine solution and adhesive bandages for me, and also prepare two portions of takeout from Blue Sky Building.”
In the Design Department:
After quickly eating a piece of bread, Jian Ran buried herself in hard work, wanting to earn money to support Tang Bao.
It would be even better to have some savings so that when Jian Anguo was released from prison, life could be better for the three of them.
Recently, the Gu Family had taken on a design project from Guohao Company.
If she could secure it, there was a bonus of ten thousand yuan.
The thought alone filled Jian Ran with energy, as if she had been injected with a dose of adrenaline.
As for Han Siming, after the stirrings of the previous night and her wild thoughts, she had now calmed down.
The past love was intense, but now she had returned to a tranquil life.
Just as Jian Ran had finished a design sketch, she heard noise at the entrance of the design department and looked up to see a tall man walking towards her.
What was he doing here…
Her gaze fell on the items the man was carrying in his large hands, and Jian Ran’s eyes widened in surprise.
President Gu, what are you doing here?”
Thinking about their somewhat unhappy parting the night before, Jian Ran looked at Gu Mochen with some wariness in her heart.
Gu Mochen, however, spoke up on his own accord, “Take off your shoes.”
Seeing Jian Ran procrastinating, Gu Mochen simply bent down and took off the canvas shoes from Jian Ran’s feet.
Looking at the woman’s swollen, scratched feet wrapped in adhesive bandages, his brows furrowed.
“Shut up, I’m going to apply medicine.”
“Don’t get me wrong, I just don’t want you to use your injured foot as an excuse to go on strike.
Jian Ran, I can’t stomach Blue Sky Building’s takeout right now; the only thing I can eat is the food you make.”
The touch of emotion that had just begun to rise in her heart instantly turned to ashes.
