Hearing that, Gu Jiahao’s look darkened.
“What do you mean by that?”
From the surface, there was nothing wrong with what she had just said. The tone she said it in, however, gave Gu Jiahao a bad feeling.
Specifically, he had a guilty conscience…
As though she had picked up his guilty conscience, Su Ran smiled and thought to herself; gotcha.
“Oh, nothing much. I am praising Housemaster Gu for your hard work. I am sure Leader Wang would agree if he finds out how you kept Mrs. Wang company when she had her hair done without any words of complaint.”
Gu Jiahao might be the only child of the Gu’s and their only successor, but Gu Jiahao was also an idiot when it came to running a business.
After senior Boss Gu had passed away, Gu Jiahao didn’t want to lose his family business. To maintain his current lifestyle, he came up with the idea of keeping wealthy men’s wives “company”.
And this “Mrs. Wang” that Su Ran referred to was just one of his 7 to 8 wealthy wife patrons.
“Mrs. Wang” was his biggest client.
Su Ran was very glad that she read the novel from cover to cover.
This only came up in the extra chapters when the male lead found it out accidentally. If the male lead found out, that meant the female lead was also aware of this.
The female lead had subsequently used that as a leverage to control Gu Jiahao and made him a dog who’d bite anywhere she points. This also contributed greatly to how the female lead was able to later on help solidify the Song’s foundation and became the housemistress of the family.
Su Ran felt bad about taking away the female lead’s cheat when she had just arrived at this word, but if she didn’t borrow the male and female leads’ halos right now, she had no idea how else to get out of here alive.
Gu Jiahao would no doubt be even more careful about his little secret after a supporting character like Su Ran had called him out on it. It’d be hard to say whether the female lead would still be able to control him later on.
As to whether the female lead would still be able to gain the trust and loyalty of the Song’s without this extra bit of help, Su Ran definitely couldn’t say for certain.
But, thinking about it, the female lead had two children with the male lead and also the 360 degree protection by the male lead. Even if she wouldn’t be able to become a female warrior, she should at least still be able to keep her status as the little princess.
Coming to that conclusion, Su Ran felt much more at peace with herself.
Recollecting herself, she looked straight at Gu Jiahao once again.
Sure enough, Su Ran’s words had made Gu Jiahao change colors immediately.
“How… how did you know that?!” asked Gu Jiahao, his face filled with fear but he subconsciously lowered his voice.
“Didn’t Housemaster Gu just mention that I have a lot of customers of my own?”
Su Ran didn’t tell him that her information came from the female lead not because she was a kind person and didn’t want to cause troubles for the innocent and noble female lead, but that as a cannon fodder who had already been phased out now, she really didn’t want to have anything else to do with the male or female leads.
Gu Jiahao, however, was convinced and started sinisterly thinking about which one was it who leaked his secret to her.
