The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat awkward, and Jian Ran forced a smile at the corners of her mouth.
"Mr. Gu, please try on this suit."
With a single address of "Mr. Gu," Jian Ran clarified the nature of their relationship to the sales clerk. Gu Mochen's dark eyes slightly narrowed, aware of Jian Ran's estrangement, his thin lips pursing.
"You help me put it on."
Jian Ran: "..."
Having just distanced herself from Gu Mochen's relationship, she now found his words ambiguously flirtatious, changing the way the sales clerk looked at her and Gu Mochen.
Office politics...
Jian Ran watched as Gu Mochen's slender fingers undid the buttons at the front of her shirt and quickly slipped the suit onto himself. Unexpectedly, Gu Mochen also pulled off the tie around his neck and handed Jian Ran a pale purple tie.
"Help me with the tie."
"Okay."
