Assistant to My Contracted Husband

Chapter 1982: Chapter 449: President Gu Competes for Favor with His Son (Part 2)

"Also, when he wakes up, you need to give him some water."

Jian Ran rattled off all the instructions about Little Cubao to Gu Mochen.

Gu Mochen: "..."

It was all about Little Cubao, nothing to do with him at all.

Gu Mochen’s handsome face darkened.

Jian Ran didn’t notice Gu Mochen’s slightly disappointed face, as there were indeed many matters in the design department.

Gu Mochen cast a deep glance at the little girl in front of him, and Secretary Zhou’s words flashed through his mind. His thin lips pressed together as he slowly said,

"Ranran, I’m not feeling well."

Sometimes... showing weakness is important.

The act of playing the victim, he wasn’t incapable of doing it.

And doing it in front of his own wife, Gu Mochen didn’t feel it was shameful at all.

Jian Ran: "..."

Not feeling well?

Jian Ran’s expression changed, and Gu Mochen successfully noticed Jian Ran’s change of expression, making his heart flutter with excitement he couldn’t suppress.

Well, it showed that his wife was concerned about him.

This brat’s momentary favor was just temporary.

"Actually, it’s not very serious, just a little uncomfortable."

Out of guilt, Gu Mochen didn’t want to exaggerate his condition.

"What’s the matter? It doesn’t matter if it’s serious or not, being sick is being sick, you need to take it seriously."

Jian Ran immediately reached out and touched Gu Mochen’s forehead. After thinking for a moment, she didn’t find any sign of a fever and felt slightly relieved.

Gu Mochen felt a surge of joy, as if he was walking on clouds, feeling indescribably happy.

"Hmm?"

"Gu Mochen, can you be more careful? Even small problems are not okay. We have Jinchen at home now, and even though it’s a small problem for you, it could spread germs. What if it infects Cubao?"

"Ah, you just held him, I don’t know if it’s okay. I can’t leave the child with you, I better take him to my office, I can’t stop worrying."

Gu Mochen: "..."

One moment he was on cloud nine, and the next he fell straight down.

Gu Mochen’s expression subtly changed, seeing Jian Ran’s face full of disdain, he tugged at his lips.

Her husband was sick...

But Jian Ran was most concerned about Little Cubao.

"Actually..."

"Don’t get too close to me, Mo Chen. You’ll spread it to me, and I still have to feed Little Cubao. It’ll infect Little Cubao."

Gu Mochen: "..."

"For the next few days, take care of yourself in the office, and come home once you’re better, okay?"

Gu Mochen: "..."

Indeed...

It’s exactly what Secretary Zhou had said.

Gu Mochen tugged at his lips, his expression subtly changing, with a small feeling of hurt he couldn’t suppress inside.

Jian Ran looked at Gu Mochen with concern, but she... indeed had to feed Little Cubao every day, and since Little Cubao was only three months old, it had to be taken seriously.

Minor illnesses in adults are no big deal, but little babies could catch a cold, get a fever, and need an IV.

He’s so young, the IV would have to be on his forehead.

Jian Ran couldn’t bear that.

"Alright..."

Gu Mochen wanted to confess directly, but was worried Jian Ran would get upset, and he’d end up causing trouble for himself, so he just accepted it.

Gu Mochen tugged at his lips and said, "Don’t worry."

"That’s good, then I’ll take the child to the break room. Only I can hold him, you’re not allowed near Baobao."

After saying that, Jian Ran immediately moved forward, taking Little Cubao into her arms, away from Gu Mochen and towards the break room.

Gu Mochen: "..."

Alright. freeweɓnovel.cøm

Completely shunned.

Secretary Zhou, having been through it, was indeed quite prescient.

Gu Mochen couldn’t suppress his disappointment, squinting his dark eyes, pondering a bit.

Hmm... self-consolation, once Little Cubao grows up, Jian Ran’s heart will still be with him.

Yes... exactly like that.

...

After Jian Ran took Little Cubao to the break room, she dared not linger near Gu Mochen, also worried about catching something minor.

Gu Mochen could only watch his wife leave.

Hmm...

The feeling of disappointment was very noticeable.

Before leaving, Jian Ran repeatedly warned to stay far away from their son, farther still.

...

Jian Ran walked out of Gu Mochen’s office and saw Secretary Zhou nearby. She pursed her lips and said, "Secretary Zhou, Mo Chen’s not feeling well. I checked, no fever, might be something else. Later, arrange for the hospital to check him out in his office."

Secretary Zhou: "..."

Emma...

He’s sick?

Oh dear...

Mr. Gu is definitely up to something.

Secretary Zhou almost burst into laughter, but meeting Jian Ran’s curious and probing eyes, he quickly spoke.
