The Ceo‘s Caged Melody

Black-bellied, sharp-tongued business tyrant vs. adorably cunning, deceptively soft beauty 【Let the evil meet their fate, and if fate doesn't take its course, I'll do it for you】 It was rumored in C City that the merchant Gu Jiangnian was a master of strategy and profit, where every move was made for gain. But everyone at Junhua knew, Director Gu sought not only profit but also people. To what extent? Want money, send money; want someone, send someone; you fight, I guard the door; you brawl, I support you. Before marriage, she was the least favored miss of the Jiang family, battling alone against her cruel stepmother and adulterous father, with her daily work: brawl! Brawl! And brawl some more! After marriage, she was the beloved little ancestor of the Gu Mansion, pampered and protected in the palm of the master's hand, too precious to let others bully, with her daily work: cling to powerful coattails! Cling! And cling some more! 【Post-marriage daily life one】 One day, Mrs. Gu was ill and had lost her appetite. Mr. Gu canceled his appointments to return home, sat in front of her, and coldly stared, his words icy: “Didn’t you say I was a feast for the eyes? Eat!” 【Post-marriage daily life two】 Mrs. Gu found herself in a tight spot, attacked by the public, when a reporter relentlessly pursued Gu Jiangnian asking, “As Junhua’s director and C City’s wealthiest Mr. Gu, what is your opinion on Mrs. Gu's attempt to run over her own biological father?” The man paused abruptly, his face cold as he slowly and deliberately said, “She's spoiled by me. What’s it to you?” Without waiting for the reporter to answer, he arrogantly continued, “Even if you have an opinion, keep it to yourself. My woman, Gu Jiangnian’s woman, is not subject to your criticism.”

Chapter 21: Calculations

Translator: 549690339

On this early morning, Jiang Muwan finished her milk, leaving a ring of white mustache around her lips.

That was how she assessed Gu Jiangnian's thrice-wrapped quality as lacking.

What's the difference between that and eating in secret without time to wipe your mouth?

Did Jiang Muwan have pride?

She did.

But her pride counted for little in the face of certain things.

Ignoring the amused looks of the servants in the dining room, Muwan left the dining room just in time to see Xu Han rushing in from outside, his face filled with urgency and seriousness.

"Boss——," Xu Han blurted out as soon as he saw Gu Jiangnian, but upon catching a glimpse of Jiang Muwan behind him, his urgent call ceased, and no more words came forth.

Gu Jiangnian said nothing, glanced at Xu Fang, and as he turned away, a chilly gaze swept across her face.

Seeing that the white mustache had disappeared, the man's lips curved slightly.
