Jian Jianan had seen the way Gu Mocheng laughed, and how he looked when he was angry. She had never seen him mock her the way he did right now.Even when they were breaking up, there was only a stoic calmness from him and nothing else.Right now, he was like a porcupine; nothing but spikes coming out of him!Jian Jianan just had a rough time facing Qiao Yongliang, so she had been so happy to see Gu Mocheng the first thing she woke up, yet here he was, mocking her!Her temper steamed through her. She looked at Gu Mocheng and sneered back, “Disappointed or not, this has nothing to do with Colonel Gu!”Not wanting to spend another minute in the same room with him, Jian Jianan struggled to get out of bed, however, her strength had yet to recover. She pushed herself up a little before dropping right back down. Refusing to give up, she tried again…Again, she tried getting up slowly, but soon she was down on the bed once more, only this time, it was not her lack of strength, but Gu Moc
The words from her mouth not only hurt Gu Mocheng. She was hurting herself too.Even in the most challenging times, she had never thought of selling her body to save North-South Pharmaceutical!Gu Mocheng was making this offer ultimately just to rub salt into her wound!The two of them were like porcupines. They sorely missed holding each other tight, yet the spikes that raised all over the bodies stabbed the softest and most vulnerable parts of the other. Compared to her smiling face, Gu Mocheng looked terrifying hearing what Jian Jianan had to say. His frigidness chilled Jian Jianan. Looking at his stiffly cold, handsome face and his pursed lips, Jian Jianan had a delusion. It felt like Gu Mocheng was grinding his teeth and he was going to tear her neck apart in one bite at any minute!Gu Mocheng opened his mouth. He did not bite her neck like she predicted. Instead, he sneered. “Do you think any other man would want you besides me? They’re welcome to try if they don’t fear d
The afternoon sunlight pierced through the glass and shined into the ward. Jian Jianan was ranting about the things that happened in the company to Jian Ansheng.She only told him the good news, not bothering if Jian Ansheng could hear it at all or not. Through the whole half hour, Jian Jianan was talking to herself. Jian Ansheng did not respond!“Dad, did you know Gu Mocheng came to propose we make up. He said he could help me save North-South Pharmaceutical. Do you think I should say yes,
Dong Fangyu was aware of what happened to North-South Pharmaceutical, as well as Jian Ansheng. She was so worried about Jian Jianan. “How is North-South Pharmaceutical now, Nannan? I was going to let Dong Fangqian take some money out and help you, but that guy is way over the line…”“It’s okay, Dong Fangqian did nothing wrong. North-South Pharmaceutical is in huge trouble, I doubt even selling the entire Dongfang Corporation is going to help. We can’t bring your family business down just to sav
We are not weak, it’s just a mad, mad world out there!Just when Jian Jianan thought Gu Mocheng was in love with her, he dealt her a deadly blow!Just when she thought he and she were going their separate ways for good, Gu Mocheng tried to pull her back in the game in such an insidious way. She had no idea what Gu Mocheng was thinking. The only thing she knew was that the world was not what it seemed to be. “Listen sis, let’s just cut to the chase. Tell me honestly, you’ve… never gotten over him. You still love him, don’t you?” ‘Still love him?’It was probably true, she was not a fish with three-second short-term memory. How could she be so entirely invested in a relationship, then stop loving him right after?However, she wished she was a fish, especially at nights when she dreamt of and missed Gu Mocheng like crazy!Her silence had given Dong Fangyu the best answer. She patted her shoulder and laughed, “If you still love him, then why are you so hesitant? Think about it l
Gu Mocheng was there when Jian Jianan arrived at the private room 211 at Imperial Kitchen. There was food all over the table! Jian Jianan took a peek. Most of the food were her favorites. It made her slightly emotional. She took a look at Gu Mocheng, who was wearing his all-black suit for some reason. It looked just like the suit he wore at Hao Minzhi’s birthday party. She had to admit, Gu Mocheng in a suit was the most dazzling sight to behold! He was a complete jerk both inside and out, but in a suit, he was temptation incarnate!Just as Jian Jianan was checking out Gu Mocheng, he looked up and did the same to her. She was wearing a white sweater and a red fur coat that hung over her frame. Below her waist was a pair of shorts. It seemed like Jian Jianan had a thing for anything in red, especially clothes. As a matter of fact, red and white perfectly complemented her skin tone. It made her fair skin look even silkier. She had worn a curly wig. Despite her weight loss, s
Jian Jianan got into the car. She had no idea where Gu Mocheng taking her. All she knew was that he was not going to kidnap her!To her surprise, Gu Mocheng took her to his house. Standing at the door, she was flooded with all kinds of feelings. This used to be her favorite place to come to, and when she was there, she never wanted to leave. The place was filled with a lot of their happy memories too. Even though the reason he was in a relationship with her before, all that being nice and k
“Not a problem!”“Then, I want Qiao Yongliang, that douchebag, to step down from his position! A miscreant like him doesn't deserve to be the chief of the bureau!”Gu Mocheng pulled a cigarette from the pack and lit it up, staring at Jian Jianan, “Do you know what consequences will come of putting the chief out of his job?”Jian Jianan laughed. “What? Is Colonel Gu afraid? I’m not gonna make you do that of course, you’re not the one he humiliated. However, I’m not gonna let him get away with
"Just in time…"The two shook hands with each other and the police officer presented a gift to Gu Mocheng as well. "I wish you a happy wedding!""Thank you…" Gu Mocheng accepted the gift.At that point, even Jian Jianan was a little confused, let alone the other villagers. What was going on? Why did the police suddenly arrive?"Come over here and bring away all these troublemakers!""Yes!"Ah Zan did not expect the tables to be turned so quickly and he was frightened. "Mr. Policeman, we didn't commit any crime. Why are you taking us away?""What are you making such a fuss here if you’re not committing any crime? If you have anything to say, you can do it at the police station. You’re name’s Ah Zan, right? I heard that your two wives comitted suicide, and they had been abused by you before they died. It’s about time you give a statement!"Ah Zan and his party were taken away by the police, prompting Sha Hong to curse, "Serves them right."Before leaving, the head policeman also stated t
At any rate, it had been embroidered by her personally, so Jian Jianan took it and gave Sha Hong a grateful look. When everyone saw Jian Jianan's belt in her hand, they all laughed, causing Jian Jianan's face to turn red in an instant. Her expression also looked extremely embarrassed.After that, she tied the belt around Gu Mocheng's waist rather resentfully and raised her eyes fiercely. "I spent two nights and one day embroidering this belt. You’ll die if you dare to dislike it!""Why would I?
Jian Jianan cried continuously and Gu Mocheng said nothing more. He gently wiped the tears from her face with his hands and hugged her in his arms tenderly. "Today is a day for us to be happy. My heart will be broken if you cry!"Jian Jianan sniffed and stared at Gu Mocheng with teary eyes. "Are you serious about this?""I’ve never been more serious in my life!"The expression on Gu Mocheng's face was very solemn and dignified. When she looked at Jian Jianan, those deep eyes were full of deep te
"She’s here, she’s here. She’s already here…"Who arrived?Before Jian Jianan could react, her head had been covered by a red cloth. Just as she was about to take it off, Sha Hong grabbed her hand and said, "Big Sister Jian, you can't take it down now or it’ll be unlucky.""What is going on, Sha Hong?""Uhh… You’re a guest in our village, so you have to cover your face when you go out!" Jian Jianan looked dumbfounded. Why did she never hear about that ethnic minority’s particular tradition bef
Jian Jianan felt that the most serious and persevering thing she had ever done in her entire life was to embroider that belt. She had to maintain a single posture for a long time, with her shoulders and neck becoming very stiff. Her body was also sore and uncomfortable.She had been embroidering the belt wholeheartedly in accordance with Sha Hong's instructions, completely unaware that Sha Hong had snuck in and out several times.Fortunately, Jian Jianan was very nimble. She embroidered round th
After the two of them arrived home, Jian Jianan went to look for Sha Hong instead of following Gu Mocheng to his room. Gu Mocheng pestered Jian Jianan and did not let her go. "You just accepted my marriage proposal and you’re already going to leave me alone? Is it nice of you to be so cruel?"Jian Jianan had no choice but to kiss Gu Mocheng’s lips of her own accord, beg for mercy, and cajole him for a long time before he was willing to let her go. After Jian Jianan returned to Sha Hong’s room, G
The most beautiful love story was neither ‘I love you’ nor ‘I’ll marry you’, but rather, ‘I’ll be by your side no matter what it is you choose to do’!Jian Jianan turned her head and stared at Gu Mocheng with bright eyes. Her heart was so emotional that she became a complete mess. She really thanked God for letting her meet Gu Mocheng.Otherwise, she would probably live in hatred her entire life.The two of them found themselves kissing each other uncontrollably again. It was perfect because no
Beside a pond in a patch of small forest was a large group of fireflies flashing their lights and dancing happily, forming a beautiful scene.Jian Jianan and Gu Mocheng were surrounded by the glowing fireflies and their hearts skipped a beat for a moment.She wanted to reach out and touch them but was afraid that she might hurt them by accident.The moon had risen to its highest point and its moonlight illuminated the ripples caused by insects and frogs frolicking about in the water. It was so beautiful that one could be moved to tears.Jian Jianan had never seen fireflies before, as she lived in the city. She only knew about them through books, but after seeing them with her own eyes, the amazement she felt was beyond words."Do you like it?" Gu Mocheng's deep and sexy voice rumbled from behind her. Jian Jianan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. "I love it. I love it a lot. How were you able to find such a beautiful place? There’s even fireflies here?"When Jian Jianan turned her
"Ah? You… Uh… As long as you have the heart to do it, it’s definitely possible!"Seeing Sha Hong look so reluctant, Jian Jianan was speechless. "Well, I’ll have to think about it!"After all, embroidering things with needles and thread was not Jian Jianan’s strong suit… At night, Jian Jianan originally planned to sleep with Sha Hong. After all, she and Gu Mocheng were not married yet, and it was not good to sleep together so often in such a conservative place. Nevertheless, Gu Mocheng called he
