Assistant to My Contracted Husband

"Uh... I want to know why women get angry?"

Hua Nuan’s sudden burst of anger just now left Huo Zun a bit bewildered.

Huo Zun was sitting on the sofa, holding Xiaobai in his arms, with an aloof air about him. He had a devilish charm that made it impossible for people not to look at him.

This kind of man is enough to make gods and humans alike angry.

The maids all looked at Huo Zun, unwilling to tear their eyes away.

Jian Ran: "..."

The foolish son of the landlord’s family.

The king of the black market suddenly asking such a question... to someone who didn’t know, they’d think the man had lost his mind.

Indeed, just like Gu Mochen...

Some things about feelings, they’re completely clueless.

Jian Ran rubbed her forehead, handed the Little Cubao in her arms to Gu Mochen, then asked in return.

"You mean Hua Nuan got angry?"

"Yeah, she got angry all of a sudden, for no reason."

As expected.

Jian Ran couldn’t help but say, "Previously there was no sign at all, and it happened suddenly?"

"Yeah..."

"Mr. Huo, if a woman gets angry for no apparent reason, it’s very likely her period has come, so there’s no specific reason. Don’t overthink why she’s angry. Getting angry is a woman’s basic right, which means, anytime, anywhere, do as they please, you get me?"

Huo Zun: "..."

Wow... that’s bold and direct.

Huo Zun tugged at the corners of his lips; it seemed he understood a little now.

"Got it, so what specific solutions are there?"

Listening to his inquiry, Jian Ran squinted her phoenix eyes; usually, when she’s angry, the solution is for Gu Mochen to stay away so she can calm down, and then she won’t be as angry.

Jian Ran pretended to think for a while upon hearing his question, then smilingly said.

"Of course, there’s a solution. If she’s angry, you have to get closer to her, and as you get closer, she’ll see your sincerity, and then her mood will get better."

Finally, he heard a solution.

Huo Zun, hearing Jian Ran’s words, immediately said, "Mm, I understand."

"Good, then do it, you have to be in front of her all the time, and soon she won’t be angry anymore. Women, you see, when they’re angry, they always want to see the existence of a man."

"Uh-huh..."

Jian Ran smilingly gave Huo Zun lots of ridiculous ideas before hanging up the phone.

Meanwhile, Gu Mochen was holding the Little Cubao, coaxing the little one to sleep.

Gu Mochen gave a profound gaze at the woman in front of him, watching her bright smile, clearly pleased with her successful prank.

Perhaps, if Huo Zun really recklessly approaches, Hua Nuan will be even angrier.

"Darling, do you have any objections?"

Jian Ran saw the man’s gaze fall upon her, full of meaning, and smilingly replied, with an indescribable threat in her words.

Gu Mochen thought for a moment, then pressed his lips and said, "No, wife is always right..."

Jian Ran: "..."

As expected of my husband, so perceptive.

I admire him.

Jian Ran leaned over and gave Gu Mochen a fierce kiss on the cheek.

"Husband loves you... mm, let’s watch Huo Zun get embarrassed..."

"Alright."

Gu Mochen tugged at his lips, acknowledging that sometimes even brothers can be sacrificed for the sake of a happy wife.

"Wife, you sleep first, I’ll take care of the kid..."

"Mm."

...

Cologne City:

Hua Nuan was somewhat annoyed by her own changes, pondering for a moment. Too many things happened today, and she hadn’t figured it all out, so she headed towards the bathroom.

Just after taking off her clothes and lying in the oversized massage bathtub, feeling physically and mentally exhausted.

Tomorrow will be another tough battle.

After all, Hua Kun was taken by Hua Dong.

She needs to take it all back, piece by piece.

...

Hua Nuan slowly submerged herself in the water when suddenly, the bathroom door was pushed open, and there stood Huo Zun, making her expression change.

"You... why are you here... get out."

"What were you just doing?"

Huo Zun furrowed his blue eyes, clearly seeing the woman submerge her head in the water just now.

Huo Zun suddenly raised his hand to grasp her slender wrist, then harshly said, "Hua Nuan, you didn’t really think that after Hua Dong died, you’ve finished everything and can end it all, did you?"

Hua Nuan: "..."

Realizing the man might have misunderstood, Hua Nuan didn’t know what to say.

How could she be so silly...

Did the man overthink this?

"You misunderstood, I was just..."

"Who gave you that right, hmm?"

Hua Nuan: "..."

The man’s blue eyes were blazing with anger, Hua Nuan’s eyes widened, having become accustomed to the man’s charm and devilishness, she began to forget the man’s rage.

Intimidated by his furious demeanor, Hua Nuan quickly said.

"I was just taking a bath... now please leave."

Hua Nuan’s eyes were clear and determined, though Huo Zun seemed to doubt her words.

After quite a while, once he was sure, he slowly let go of his large hand, already leaving noticeable red marks on her delicate white wrist.

"Sorry..."

The man’s response was like that of a child who did something wrong, making Hua Nuan partly amused and partly speechless.

Thinking to herself, the man’s earlier scolding might have been a display of concern.

"Well, I need to bathe now, please leave..."

Even though earlier... still, a girl’s reserve can’t accept this.

"I’ll stay with you..."

Huo Zun remembered Jian Ran’s advice, to always appear in front of Hua Nuan.

Hua Nuan: "Get out..."

Realizing her own odd behavior, she immediately yelled in anger.

Huo Zun furrowed his blue eyes, feeling that his voluntarily approaching only increased her temper.

"Together."

With that, Huo Zun pulled her into his arms.

Hua Nuan: "..."

Initially, being treated this way only made Hua Nuan angry and scold him, but now she immediately noticed her different reaction.

Hua Nuan’s face turned a strong shade of red as she awkwardly said in a hoarse voice, "Huo Zun... let me go."

If this keeps going.

She feared that... she’d be unable to resist glancing a few more times, her heartbeat like a drum, difficult to control.

"No..."

"Stay away from me."

"No..."

"Don’t force me..."

"Hmm?"

Huo Zun studied her face, trying to discern if she was still angry.

The next moment, Hua Nuan took a deep breath and attacked with a kick.

Huo Zun: "..."

Caught off guard, Huo Zun was struck by her attack, looked shocked, and Hua Nuan seized the opportunity to escape the bathtub, angrily saying.

"That’s what you get for being clueless and trying to take advantage of me... huh, taking advantage of me is not something you can do easily... choke on that..."

Huo Zun: "..."

Shit!

That hurts...

...

Worried that Huo Zun might come for a reckoning later, Hua Nuan fled back to the guest room, locked the door, and fell into a sweet sleep.

In her dreams... damn, seemed like someone appeared in them.

...

Huo Zun, fuming after being attacked, reached the guest room only to find the door locked. Using the spare key to open it, he saw the little rascal sleeping soundly, his anger dissipating instantly, looking at her adorable posture, he went up to her and pulled her into his embrace, having a good dream.

...

The next day, when Hua Nuan woke up, she felt something heavy at her waist, and upon slightly opening her beautiful eyes, she was greeted by the enlarged face of a man right in front of her.

Hua Nuan took a moment to recall, her face slightly changing color.

Huo Zun!

Didn’t I lock the door?

How did the man get in?

Hua Nuan spent a moment reacting, her heartbeat once again accelerating uncontrollably.

Her face also blushing in the clear morning light.

"Awake?"

Then, the man’s magnetic and lazy voice sounded beside her ear.
