48: Chapter 48 Mr.
Gu, Is This Your First Kiss_1
In Totem Hall:
A warm touch lingered on her lips, and Jian Ran froze, never expecting Gu Mochen to actually do such a thing.
The man’s domineering breath swept through their lips and teeth, their breath mingling, chaotic.
After a long while, the man’s tongue brushed across the corner of her mouth, licking away the trace of wine before he reluctantly pulled away.
“That’s enough.”
Her enticing red lips were now free of the wine stain, kissed away earlier.
A collective gasp echoed around them; it was a blatant public display of affection.
Jian Ran: “…”
An impromptu interaction?
Ah ptooey…
Jian Ran’s mind was filled with images of the man telling the makeup artist that he didn’t like to taste lipstick.
Could it be that Gu Mochen had planned this all along?
Jian Ran clenched her small hand, suppressing her anger in front of the crowd.
Gu Mochen’s lips curved into a satisfied smile, his narrow, ink-dark eyes slightly squinting, filled with a deep and profound gleam.
The host, slow to react, was surprised to see that after two years of marriage, their passion was still fiery.
He then said, “Mr.
and Mrs.
Gu’s affection for each other is truly touching.
Just now, Mrs.
Gu had a wine stain at the corner her mouth, and Mr.
Gu kissed it away directly.”
Hearing the host’s explanation, the crowd seemed to understand more, so that’s what it was.
Applause ensued; it was rare nowadays to find a man so attentive to detail.
Especially since this man was Yuncheng City’s Boss, a powerful figure with unrivaled authority.
Jian Ran discreetly wiped her lips with her small hand, which made them redder the more she wiped, becoming tantalizingly moist and prompting fanciful thoughts.
Gu Mochen’s eyes deepened as he observed her actions.
Gu Mochen’s hand, still commanding, landed on Jian Ran’s slender waist, drawing her entirely into his embrace.
After the kissing interlude, the host spoke up, “Next up, we have an impromptu interaction prepared for Mr.
and Mrs.
Gu.”
Jian Ran: “…”
With Gu Mochen exerting force on her waist, Jian Ran curved her lips into a faint smile, signaling her consent.
“The first question is for Mrs.
Gu, what is Mr.
Gu’s hobby?”
This question instantly threw Jian Ran into disarray.
How could she know the dark-humored hobbies of Gu Mochen?
“I…”
I’m not too sure…
Before Jian Ran could finish speaking, Gu Mochen already curled his lips into a light smile.
“Mrs.
Gu’s answer is very standard.
My hobby is indeed her…
Jian Ran: “…”
Jian Ran, watching the man’s sanctimonious facade, felt her entire being thrown into turmoil.
How could Gu Mochen be so shameless?
To say such a thing, it was bound to stir up wild thoughts.
Jian Ran clenched her small hand, a forced smile creeping onto her lips…
Female colleagues from the design department below were filled with envy.
They hadn’t expected Mr.
and Mrs.
Gu to be so affectionate.
Usually, Mr.
Gu showed no interest in other women, but it turned out his heart was all for the beauty at home.
A hobby is her…
The answer to this question was so provocative it set hearts racing in intimate anticipation.
People were green with envy!
Mr.
Gu also kept Mrs. 𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝙗.𝙘𝒐𝙢
Gu’s life so secret; it truly was a deep affection.
Jian Ran pursed her lips, glad she had only uttered one word: good.
It wasn’t loud enough for others to hear clearly, avoiding any suspicion.
Seeing this, the host continued, “Mr.
Gu, then what is Mrs.
Gu’s hobby?”
“Me.”
Both people’s responses were one word, signifying their tacit agreement; the guests were envious, thinking that the couple had a great relationship.
Jian Ran was already immune to the man’s shameless words.
Her interest was indeed him…
only thing is, it was the money on him!
…
“We thank Mr.
Gu and Mrs.
Gu for the impromptu interaction; next, may I invite Mr.
Gu and Mrs.
Gu to lead the dance for our ball.”
Jian Ran watched as Gu Mochen reached out elegantly before her, with a gaze as deep as the sea, then extended her own small hand and placed it in the man’s broad palm, feeling the scalding heat, her heart involuntarily skipped a beat.
After both of them entered the dance floor, Jian Ran immediately asked.
“Mr.
Gu, has the impromptu interaction you mentioned finished?”
Embracing, kissing, questioning, close dancing…
Jian Ran could not think of anything else.
Gu Mochen squinted his eyes slightly, somewhat displeased with Jian Ran’s question.
His large hand clasped her slender waist and directly pressed Jian Ran’s whole body against himself, the heat in his palm was almost scorching her skin.
Jian Ran’s face turned a shade paler.
“What, you want to sever ties with me?”
The man’s dark eyes were murky and indecipherable, making it hard to grasp the intentions behind his words; Jian Ran awkwardly looked away.
“Mr.
Gu, I don’t have much to do with you, we had agreed it was a marriage in name only, strangers essentially.”
Gu Mochen’s lips curled into a mocking smile as he led the dance with practiced ease, maintaining control over Jian Ran’s steps all the while.
Hearing her words, his eyes narrowed.
“Unfortunately, Mrs.
Gu, although you may think so, our relationship is protected by law.”
Jian Ran: “…”
Jian Ran, stunned by Gu Mochen’s words, lost her step, and accidentally stepped firmly on the man’s foot.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.”
Gu Mochen, looking at the woman with her head bowed, chuckled softly.
“Mhmm.”
Jian Ran, annoyed by Gu Mochen’s nonchalant demeanor, viciously lifted her foot and stomped once more onto the man’s instep, especially using the heel of her foot.
“My apologies.”
After saying that, Jian Ran curled her lips into a sweet smile, radiantly looking at the man before her.
Gu Mochen: “…”
Jian Ran was definitely doing it on purpose.
Jian Ran finally had something go her way.
Gu Mochen witnessed the tiny smug smile at the corner of her mouth, as his narrow eyes slightly squinted, enveloping Jian Ran entirely in his embrace.
“Mrs.
Gu, such distraction, could it be that you’re savoring that kiss from earlier?”
Jian Ran’s face immediately turned a fierce red from Gu Mochen’s shameless words.
Especially since the man’s voice was magnetic and wickedly charming, it really made her heart flutter, so this time Jian Ran really did step hard on the man’s foot without meaning to.
Jian Ran pushed down the disdain in her heart and raised her eyes to look at the man before her.
“I’m sorry, don’t misunderstand, Mr.
Gu’s kissing skills are rusty, it really wasn’t anything worth savoring!”
Jian Ran stood tall with pride, one could lose but still hold the air of confidence!
Feeling as though her force wasn’t enough, Jian Ran continued to counter-inquire, “Could it be, Mr.
Gu, it was your first kiss?”
After saying this, Jian Ran was actually surprised to find that Gu Mochen awkwardly averted his gaze.
Could it be, she had hit the mark?
