58: Chapter 58 Gu Mochen is a Beast in Human Clothing (1)_1
Design Department:
Because it was Gu Mochen, who was cunning and sly, Jian Ran had long since grown accustomed to it.
“Mr.
Gu, my foot got injured because of wearing high heels yesterday.
I want to ask if this counts as a work-related injury and if there are any subsidies…”
The benefits at Gu Family, including logistics subsidies, were extremely well-known within the industry.
It wasn’t just the subsidy amount; there was also the corresponding time off.
Gu Mochen: “…”
Gu Mochen’s dark eyes narrowed slightly, his lips curling into a barely there smile.
“Mrs.
Gu, what do you think?”
Jian Ran: “…”
The man’s deep eyes, like a fathomless pool, irresistibly drew one in.
Jian Ran felt a tingle on her scalp under the intensity of his heated gaze and unnaturally looked away.
“I understand.”
The title “Mrs.
Gu” already signified Gu Mochen’s response.
“Hiss…
it hurts.”
Gu Mochen skillfully treated the wound with iodine.
Jian Ran couldn’t help but furrow her brows in pain.
Although Gu Mochen didn’t respond, his touch became gentler.
“Mr.
Gu, actually, I can handle this myself…”
“Time to eat!”
Jian Ran intended to take the adhesive bandages from Gu Mochen, but at his clean-cut words, she bit her lip.
“Okay.”
…
Looking up at Jian Ran obediently eating take-out, Gu Mochen’s eyes narrowed.
Jian Ran’s foot was quite delicate, like a golden lotus.
Clasped in his hands, her skin felt smooth as jade and ice.
An unusual feeling began to spread from the bottom of his heart…
…
After Gu Mochen applied the adhesive bandage, Jian Ran clearly felt her feet much better.
“Mr.
Gu, thank you.
I am full now.
I’ll go for a walk and won’t disturb your meal.
Or should I bring your lunch to your office?”
As she spoke, Jian Ran batted her beautiful eyes, seemingly asking for Gu Mochen’s opinion, but in her heart, she was thinking, please leave.
Gu Mochen’s eyes narrowed as he spoke indifferently.
“No need, I’ll eat here.
Help me pick out the cilantro, you just ate my portion that didn’t have cilantro in it.”
Jian Ran: “…”
That portion was clearly the one he had handed her to eat.
“Mr.
Gu…”
“The first rule of Gu Family employees is unconditional obedience.”
Jian Ran’s lips curled into a forced smile, “Alright.”
As Jian Ran watched the man dine elegantly and she picked out the cilantro, she reminded herself that even Tang Bao at home disliked cilantro.
She instinctively murmured softly, “Actually, cilantro is very nutritious, and being picky isn’t good for your health.”
Watching the man continue to eat in silence, Jian Ran felt that she had become used to lecturing Tang Bao and thus, decided to say no more.
Finally, after picking out all the cilantro from Gu Mochen’s soup, Jian Ran sighed in relief.
Gu Mochen only had a few bites of the food in his lunchbox, but he drank up the soup.
“Jian Ran, I want to eat Dongpo fish, chicken tofu pudding, and lotus root tomorrow.”
Jian Ran: “…”
Shameless, he was starting to place his orders again.
“The ingredients will be prepared in the lounge, you can just come to my office to cook, any questions?”
“No…”
“Good, thank you for your hard work.”
Once finished speaking, Gu Mochen elegantly picked up a napkin from the desk to wipe the corners of his mouth, then stood up with his tall figure and headed towards the door on his own initiative.
Jian Ran listened to the man’s completely business-like words and pursed her lips.
