Jian Ran and Gu Mochen initiated a passionate kiss, creating a breathtaking scene.
After a long while, Gu Mochen finally released the woman in his arms, his thin lips touching her fair forehead. Though the touch was cool, the kiss was filled with deep affection.
Jian Ran blushed and couldn’t help but push against the man’s chest with her small hands, then softly spoke.
"Uh, Tang Bao is still watching..."
Gu Mochen looked at the woman, shy as a young girl. He raised his hand to draw her into his embrace, placing his large hand affectionately on her belly.
"Hmm... in two months, Cubao will be watching too."
"But... I still want to keep kissing endlessly."
The implication was that whether their daughter watched, or their son would in the future, it wouldn’t matter.
Jian Ran: "..."
The man’s promise was firm and resonant.
Listening to Gu Mochen’s words, Jian Ran’s heart felt a slight tremor. Her beautiful eyes turned moist, she sniffed and nodded heavily.
"Hmm..."
She didn’t know when the feelings began, but when she realized it, she was already deeply entangled.
So happy...
Gu Mochen held the woman in his arms, watching Jian Ran’s reddened eyes, noticing how she increasingly resembled a child.
...
In the morning, Huo Zun visited with Hua Nuan, so Gu Mochen and Jian Ran didn’t go to the office. They went in the afternoon to handle official duties.
Jian Ran, with her swollen belly, found it sowhat challenging, but she was determined to review the backlogged design drafts in the design departnt.
After finishing the review, she saw Secretary Zhou rushing into the design departnt with sheer excitent.
"Ma’am... Supervisor Jian, great news..."
"Hmm?"
Seeing Secretary Zhou’s ecstatic expression, Jian Ran couldn’t help but ask.
"You... sorry, slipped up, it’s that JR’s work, Ingot Heart, has been shortlisted for the German IF Design Award."
Jian Ran: "..."
The IF competition is the most prestigious design contest globally; every designer hopes to be shortlisted.
Even just getting shortlisted, though not necessarily winning, already represents the designer’s skill level.
Participating in the IF competition had always been her dream.
Jian Ran curled her lips into a smile, her heart filled with joy.
"JR is the only female designer shortlisted, and also the only Asian."
It’s truly an honor.
Listening to Secretary Zhou’s words, Jian Ran pursed her lips. All these award applications were arranged by Gu Mochen; she had never inquired about them.
She had not held much hope, not expecting such unexpected fortune.
The other employees in the design departnt were curious about why Lady Gu’s work was shortlisted and what it ant to tell Jian Ran.
Looking at Jian Ran’s genuine happiness was undeniable, and everyone speculated it might be because Jian Ran and Lady Gu were old acquaintances.
"Wow, no wonder she’s Lady Gu, simply amazing..."
"Sigh, the point is this woman’s fortune is just so good. She married well, and her design skills are impressive. Truly a teoric rise."
"Isn’t it said now that Lady Gu has the highest worth? Wow, casually designing sothing, doesn’t that an... tsk tsk tsk, she’s beco a little rich lady."
"Isn’t that so? Haha, she could even keep a young lover."
Everyone discussed among themselves, but Jian Ran rely pursed her lips and didn’t say much, just offering a gentle smile in response.
