Chapter 10 Dressing Room Romance, Please Favorite (1)_1

Because Jian Ran had to reach up to cover Mo Chen's lips, she inevitably had to tiptoe, her upper body pressing directly against the man's chest.

Jian Ran could almost hear their heartbeats.

Jian Ran bit her lip as she heard footsteps approaching outside the door...

...

When Lan Xing entered the restroom, she found only a white blazer placed beside the sink and no one around. Her gaze shifted toward the changing room not far away. She crooked her lips into a smile, strode over confidently, and then tossed the shirt she was holding directly inside.

"Put it on, this is a high-end shirt, not the cheap stuff you're wearing."

Jian Ran: "..."

The shirt was thrown in from above, hitting Mo Chen directly in the face. Jian Ran looked at the man before her, whose expression had already darkened.

Realizing she was still covering the man's lips with her hand, a faint blush crept over her small face. Jian Ran quickly withdrew her hand but still made a silent "Shh" gesture, uneasily.

If Lan Xing discovered her with Mo Chen,

she probably wouldn't have a place in the Gu Family's design department anymore.

"Um... thank you, Manager."

"Hurry up and change. Give me your dirty clothes. The laundry staff is here, they're waiting in the design department. While I'm at it, I'll have your cheap clothes cleaned as well... Jian Ran, where else can you find such a considerate manager as me?"

Jian Ran pursed her lips. In fact, Lan Xing was the instigator, pretending to be a good person in front of her. Yet the thought of changing clothes made her tense up inside.

With herself and Mo Chen together, how could she change?

Jian Ran struggled to lift her beautiful eyes toward her man; his deep, inscrutable eyes were clear but cold, making him difficult to read.

"Manager... could you please step out and wait for a moment? I'll bring it out once I'm done changing."

"Jian Ran, why so much fuss? Not only do you think about stealing my design proposal, but you also want to climb into Mr. Gu's bed. Hurry up, I'm only giving you three minutes. If you don't change, I'll come in and help you."

Jian Ran: "..."

What should she do?

Mo Chen was right in front of her; was she really going to change clothes before his eyes?

But Lan Xing was just outside the door! The pressure was mounting.

One option was to change clothes in front of her man; the other was possibly losing her place in the design department. Jian Ran quickly made up her mind.

"Okay."

Jian Ran bit her lip, met Mo Chen's masterful gaze, motioning for him to avert his eyes. Mo Chen lowered his gaze, the very picture of a gentleman.

Jian Ran slowly reached out a small hand toward her waist, steeled herself, and swiftly pulled off the black sequined blouse she was wearing.

On her belly, a knife scar stood out starkly against her pale, jade-like skin, looking particularly ominous.

Mo Chen's attention was quickly drawn to the scar on the woman's abdomen.

However, this scar was in the middle of the abdomen; normally, wouldn't an appendectomy scar be on the right side of the abdomen?

Mo Chen had no time for further scrutiny as he saw Jian Ran hastily put on the white shirt prepared by Lan Xing, fumbling with the buttons at the front.

"Jian Ran, actually, you're a smart person. It's good for a newcomer to be hardworking, but there's no need to be too eager for promotion. Also, some men, you have to determine whether they're within your reach."

"I... am quite close to Mrs. Gu. I'm her eyes within the company, so... don't blame me, I have to kick out all the suspicious people away from Mr. Gu on behalf of Mrs. Gu."
