The Expensive Ex-Wife of a Wealthy Family [07]

Novel by: Yuèxià Xiāohún

Translation by: Aidoru Apple

Jian Mo's eyes fluttered. Gu Beichen had already put her in the bed…

His eyes were dark and deep while he supported her with his hands and said,

"I'm going to take a bath…while I'm showering, think about what you can offer

besides giving me your body."

Jian Mo unconsciously blinked her eyes again while staring at Gu Beichen's

enticing thin lips that made her drop her guard and surrender to his smile.

She inwardly sighed and showed a pitiful look.

"Tsk, tsk, I really can't stand your expression..." Gu Beichen's face was full

of helplessness. "Think hard. I'll give you five more minutes!" After saying

his words, "He leaned over, pecked the corner of Jian Mo's lips, got up, and

went to the bathroom.

Jian Mo wanted to roll her eyes to herself. It seems she did not only fancy Gu

Beichen's money but also his beauty which was making her speechless.

Gu Beichen took a bath five minutes longer than he used to… When he came out,

his hair was slightly wet, and his lower body was casually wrapped in a white

bath towel.

Jian Mo tilted her head to watch…

Under the dim light, his six-pack ab figure and wide upper body were in full

view. His bewitching mermaid line made her heart trembled even more.

What a perfect naked body!

"You're drooling…" Gu Beichen took a towel, randomly wiped his wet hair, and

walked over to her.

Jian Mo became abashed. When they first got married, she was too flustered to

look at his figure but now, she could blatantly look. She really became an

"old wife".1

"You said… I got nothing to lose if I see it!" Jian Mo smiled. Her eyebrows

proudly raised, "I'm just being obedient, right?!"

Jian Mo was a beautiful woman. Back in university, she was the campus belle2,

but she was not just a school flower that can be put in a vase3. She was a

xueba4… There were even many boys pursuing her on the campus.

At this moment, with her in an alluring stance, Gu Beichen would be sorry to

his arrogant little brother if he would not eat what was already served….

After making clouds and producing rain together5, Gu Beichen and Jian Mo were

as satiated as ever.

But Jian Mo's tragic discovery was that Gu Beichen's stamina was really good…

every time she would have her comeback, she instead became the one that was

exhausted and could not think of other matters.

The next day, when the sun rose and shone through the thick curtains, Jian

Mo's biological clock made her awake.

Noticing that she was still in Gu Beichen's arms, she smiled and kissed his

stern face. After waking up, her voice was hoarse and she said, "A'Chen… it's

great to wake up in your arms!"

As she spoke, she kept rubbing his chest.

Gu Beichen had yet to open his eyes but lazily and deeply said, "One who is

unaccountably solicitous is hiding evil intentions."6

"..." When Jian Mo heard this, she immediately cursed Gu Beichen hundreds of

times.

But this person was her gold master7 and the one who would determine her

admission to UCL.8 She had no choice but to please him…She was dejected first

thing in the morning. Please have some kindness!

Jian Mo had an urge to cry but also wished to knock him out with her fist!

Jian Mo pulled the corner of her mouth, raised her head, leaned her chin on Gu

Beichen's chest, and rubbed it on the man's sensitive area, "I have no other

way but to pay with my body… so just agree to it!"

Jian Mo felt nauseous and ashamed for repeatedly selling herself… Although Gu

Beichen was used to seeing her like this.

Gu Beichen became uncomfortable because of Jian Mo again. He opened his eyes,

and there was a burning fire in his ink-like pupils. He turned over and

pressed Jian Mo under him. His hard object arrogantly urged against her more…

"You're starting the fire early in the morning. It seems I was not able to

satisfy you last night!" Gu Beichen upheld his words not intending for it to

simply be lip service.

Jian Mo's dissatisfied side "cursed”, and the other side was "slapped" by Gu

Beichen's temper. She could only cooperate in completing the morning ambiguous

exercise.

The result was Gu Beichen did not agree in carrying her water directly as the

CEO of Huangdi Group even if she was eaten a few more times!

In the first round, Jian Mo suffered a complete knock-out!

After dragging her aching body to the company, Xiang Wan looked at her for a

long time and whispered, "Mo-jie9, is your boyfriend very fierce? Look at how

you walk… Tsk, tsk, clearly doesn't know to cherish the jade10."

Jian Mo suddenly had black lines on her face, "What are you, a little girl,

thinking about?"

"I'm not a little girl anymore. I'm twenty-one. Besides, Mo-jie is just two

years older than me. Don't treat me like a kid anymore…" Xiang Wan mumbled,

then followed into the workstation cubicle, "Ms. Mo, is there anything wrong

with the Huangdi Group?"

"Nothing!" Jian Mo thought of Gu Beichen as soon as she heard the 'Huangdi

Group' and her face darkened.

Was it so easy to become a wife that will serve as a bed warmer?! Gu Beichen

was a scam. He deliberately made her hope but fooled her in the end.

When Xiang Wan heard this, she raised her eyebrows and doubtfully said, "I

heard the news early this morning… Last night, Mr. Yu and Mr. Lu from the

planning department attended a banquet for real estate and went against the

people from Zhongpeng again."

"..." Jian Mo's mouth twitched while watching this carefree little girl

worrying over nothing at all and having a happy-go-lucky look while her own

mood was as opposite as the radiating sun outside.

In this case, it seemed impossible to obtain this project without working

hard!

Really…

"Momo11, the Director asked everyone to go to the conference room for a

meeting." Mo Xiaoya called out.

Jian Mo looked at Xiang Wan. Her smile was about to crack and wanted to ask

the Director to change the design assistant… Every intern flattered their

superiors. Why was this little assistant sticking to her all day like waiting

to watch a good show?!

Jian could not figure it out. What she could not even figure more out… Yu

Ziyun and Luo Xiaojing of Zhongpeng had been fighting for years. Why they were

yet to be tired?

"No matter what," Yu Ziyun declared with a sullen face, "Jian Mo, we have to

get the bid for the first floor of the Huangdi's clubhouse. Whatever means

necessary…"

Jian Mo's face was serene and calmly said, "The Huangdi Group - Huangdi

Group's decision was beyond our control, Mr. Yu… I can only assure you that I

will do my best."

Everyone gulped and secretly admired Jian Mo, but they could not help but also

worry.

Jian Mo has been in the company since her university internship. She was

beautiful, capable, responsible, courageous, and popular. The Design

Department liked her… Now she was telling the truth, but Yu Ziyun was in an

unpleasant mood.

Yu Ziyun did not expect that Jian Mo would personally confront him and his

face blackened, "What? You think you can't do it?"

"I have confidence in my design… But it's still uncertain if it can pass the

bidding." Jian Mo took out the data she gathered from the architectural circle

and handed it, "The Su Family intends to invest in a concert hall in Luo City.

I think we should also try this..."

The employees present in the meeting were surprised about the news and

subconsciously looked at the folder that Jian Mo submitted.

Yu Ziyun stared at Jian Mo, took the data, and looked through it. With a

frenzied contempt on his face, anyone could not understand his mood at this

moment…

Jian Mo pressed the corner of her lips, "Mr. Yu, what do you think?"
