The paranoid boss always tries to trick me

birthday...

Gu Wanran looked a little dazed, and then nodded slowly after a while: "Well, let's live then."

In foreign countries, Gu Xunxun and Su He would celebrate her birthday, and Yuan Xia would give her presents even if he couldn't show up for something.

But she is full of plans and hatred, and basically doesn't take her birthday seriously. Every time under her insistence, Su He and Gu Xunxun can at most say happy birthday and give a gift.

She couldn't remember the last time she celebrated her birthday.

It seemed to be when I was with Xu Jiachen.

Thinking of that man, Gu Wanran felt a little pain in his heart.

Pursing the corners of her lips, she lowered her head and said calmly, "Go ahead and make an appointment with Mu Han for me. I need to confirm his current thoughts. If he has no intention of cooperating, I'll make preparations early."

"it is good."

In the afternoon, Mu Han came to the company to meet her.

He was quite depressed, and looked very bad.

"Mr. Mu, how long are you going to hide?"

It is impossible for Gu Wanran to feel sorry for him, she only cares about whether he can help her.

Mu Han raised his head to look at her, a trace of doubt flashed in his dark eyes: "Do you know about Jiang Yuechen's plan?"

"If I knew, I wouldn't be what I am now." Gu Wanran said coldly, "Don't doubt me, this matter affects my project and makes me very unhappy. I won't do such a stupid thing."

Mu Han nodded, and said lightly: "It's fine if it's not you, it's not that I want to hide now, it's that the company doesn't let me get in touch with the affairs."

"If they don't let you, you won't do it?" Gu Wanran snorted, "When did you become so obedient?"

Mu Han narrowed his eyes slightly.

Gu Wanran said: "At least, the project on my side only recognizes you, you are not in place, and there is no way to proceed. What do you think of this reason?"

Mu Han thought for a while: "At this stage, I don't need to come forward, I'm afraid I can't."

"Then you can figure out your own way." Gu Wanran seemed a little impatient, "If Mr. Mu can't do it, I can change someone. I don't have to be you. Jiang Yuechen has made many enemies. I choose you just because we know the basics."

Even though there have been many disagreements, they know each other very well. People like them don't need real trust, as long as they have interests, that's enough.

Mu Han was not surprised by her answer: "Miss Gu is really cruel... But the more cruel you are, the more at ease I am. Only if you are hard-hearted, it means that you still hate Jiang Yuechen."

Gu Wanran frowned lightly.

A lot of people seem to be worrying about her soft-heartedness lately.

Did she really show any strange expressions or actions towards Jiang Yuechen?
She was a little irritable, and her tone was very blunt: "I will not waver, Mr. Mu, you should worry about yourself first. If something happens to you, I will not help, but will only replace you."

"Understood." Mu Han smiled lazily, but his mood improved a lot.

He was even in the mood to inquire about Wang Yan: "You called her family, didn't you? How is she doing now?"

"Mr. Mu misses her, so he goes directly to find her."

"It's just a woman. If it's gone, it's gone. She's not the only one under my hand that can be used."

Mu Han curled his lips and said, "I'm just curious, how do you want to deal with them?"

"Look at them."

If she doesn't come to provoke her, maybe she won't take any further actions. After so many years, it is already very hard for her to hate one person in her heart, and it will be really tiring to hate a few more.

After chatting with Mu Han, Gu Wanran could feel from his demeanor and words that although he was not doing well, he was not at the end of the road, and there should be some way out.

Gu Wanran didn't care about him, and was busy with her own affairs every day.

Before she knew it, her birthday was coming.

That morning, Su He came to pick up Gu Wanran and Gu Xunxun and took them to the restaurant.

The top floor of the BlueStar restaurant was covered by them, with ribbons and balloons everywhere, and cheerful music playing.

From the stairs to the dining table, there was even a red carpet.

Gu Wanran looked at the few people standing inside, feeling a little helpless: "As for it? Make it like this."

Shen Yunlan laughed and said: "This is the first time I celebrate your birthday, of course it should be better."

Yuan Xia said: "I originally booked the banquet hall near the company, but there was a little accident. Fortunately, Lin Shao lent us the restaurant under his family."

Lin Shao smiled slightly, glanced at Shen Yunlan and said, "Ah Lan's friend celebrates his birthday, of course I want to help."

"Mommy, let's walk the red carpet."

Gu Xunxun took her hand and led her over bouncingly. Happy birthday music sounded in the hall, and everyone sang along.

Su He pushed out a cake tower from behind the screen, and looked at her tenderly: "Happy birthday, of course."

"Happy birthday, Mommy." Gu Xunxun looked at Gu Wanran with a smile.

He raised his hand behind his back all the time, holding a flower to Gu Wanran: "Here, Mommy here."

"Thank you Xunxun."

Gu Wanran leaned down and kissed him on the face, picked him up, stepped forward under the urging of everyone, and blew out the candle.

Qin Yu gave the knife to Gu Wanran and taught her how to cut the cake, but when she cut halfway, Yuan Xia suddenly stretched out a hand, wiped the cake and greeted Gu Wanran's face.

"Xia Xia!" Gu Wanran wiped the cake off his face, and turned towards a certain culprit.

"Hahaha, come and fight back too."

Yuan Xia wiped Su He's face as well, and everyone stopped being polite, rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward to fight.

Gu Wanran had had enough trouble, she sat aside and wiped her face with a wet towel.

Gu Xunxun came over with a painted face, lay on Gu Wanran's lap and smiled, "Mom, are you happy?"

"Happy." Gu Wanran said with a smile, "And you, what gift did you give me?"

"Xunxun's gift has already been put in." Gu Xunxun pointed to the flowers that Gu Wanran put next to him, "Won't Mommy open it up and have a look?"

"I'm not willing to give up the flowers you sent."

As Gu Wanran said, he took the flowers back in his hands, unpacked them little by little, and put the ribbons and wrapping paper aside.

At the end of the bouquet hangs an exaggerated ring.

Gu Xunxun smiled and pulled off the ring, took Gu Wanran's hand, and slowly put it on for her: "Hey, just right, I measured Mommy's fingers quietly at night, and I did nothing wrong."

"night?"

"Yes, I have been watching for several nights."

Gu Xunxun blinked and smiled obediently: "Look, Mommy, does it look good? I made it myself."

Gu Wanran carefully looked at the ring. There was a sunflower blooming on it, a heart dotted in the middle, and a small wreath around it.

Bright colors, full of children's fun.

Gu Wanran looked at it, and couldn't help laughing: "It's very beautiful, I will keep it with me."

"Great!" Gu Xunxun hugged Gu Wanran joyfully, "The teacher said that mothers who have given birth have rings on their fingers. They were worn by their fathers when they got married. Xunxun is sorry for Mommy, because there is no ring." Dad, so I let Mommy feel wronged."

"But it's all right now, Xunxun put a ring on Mommy!"

Gu Wanran was moved in his heart, and the tails of his eyes were slightly red.

She hugged Gu Xunxun and said gently: "This is a unique ring in the world, thank you Xunxun, I am very happy."

Holding Gu Xunxun aside, she carefully wrapped the flowers back as they were.

This was given to her by her son, of course she should cherish it.

"Miss Gu..."

Qin Yu stepped forward shyly: "Excuse me, do you have time now?"

Gu Wanran looked at her gently: "Is Teacher Qin okay?"

Qin Yu said: "I have prepared a gift for you, can you go with me to the third floor?"

third floor?

Gu Wanran looked at her curiously, thinking about how she had been taking care of Gu Xunxun, she agreed.

She walked out with Qin Yu, got on the elevator and said with a smile, "What gift did Teacher Qin prepare for me? If it's too expensive, I won't accept it."

Qin Yu said embarrassingly: "It's not expensive, as long as Ms. Gu doesn't dislike it."

She watched the elevator come down, and took out a small box from her bag: "Miss Gu, happy birthday."

Gu Wanran hesitated to take it, and then glanced at the number on the elevator: "Mr. Qin... don't you...?"

"I'm sorry, because he said that if I don't agree, he will go directly to the top floor. I think Miss Gu doesn't want to see that kind of scene, so I agreed." Qin Yu looked at her carefully, "Miss Gu, you Are you angry?"

"It's okay, I can understand." Gu Wanran sighed, "But Teacher Qin, if there is a next time, I hope you can discuss it with me in advance, or say, you like him and want to help him, then..."

"No, no." Qin Yu quickly waved his hand, "Don't get me wrong, I don't dare to think this way, this time I didn't think carefully, next time I will discuss it with Miss Gu."

While speaking, the elevator had already stopped on the third floor, Gu Wanran responded lightly, and it was considered as the end of the topic.

The elevator door opened, and Jiang Yuechen's figure immediately came into view.

Gu Wanran stared at him for a moment, then slowly walked out of the elevator and stood in front of him.

The elevator door closed slowly behind, but Qin Yu did not come out.

Gu Wanran took a look at the quiet third floor, and said "Tsk", "Mr. Jiang also covered the first floor?"

Jiang Yuechen came over and took her hand: "To be precise, except for the top floor."

Gu Wanran: "..."

She avoided Jiang Yuechen's outstretched hand, and said lightly: "Boss Jiang, I came here to stand in front of you, just not to make things difficult for Teacher Qin, but also to tell you, don't bother me."

"Today is your birthday." Jiang Yuechen said, "I also want to spend it with you."

"No, I didn't intend to celebrate my birthday, I just wanted to get together with my friends."

Jiang Yuechen's eyes fell on Gu Wanran's hand: "A gift from Xunxun?"

"Yeah." Gu Wanran lightly rubbed the ring, a hint of warmth flashed in his eyes.

Jiang Yuechen stretched out his hand and caressed the ring: "I owe you one too. What do you like? Diamond? Birthstone? Or pure gold and silver?"

Gu Wanran retracted her hand and shook her head: "Boss Jiang doesn't owe me a ring. When you have Xun Xun, your fiancé is Miss Song."

In the eyes of the world, she and Jiang Yuechen have never been nothing.

Jiang Yuechen paused his outstretched fingers, and said slowly: "I only recognize you, and it has nothing to do with Song Yunrou or the marriage contract."
