No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Chapter 51: Rekindle Lost Love



Xiaohuan, Yan Yuxiao’s assistant, felt a bit scared seeing Yan Yuxiao’s sullen face, saying,

“Yuxiao, why don’t we go to hospital and check your wound first? I’m afraid that the wound hasn’t completely healed.”

Yan Yuxiao compressed her red lips and said,

“Contact the paparazzi that we hired to take photos near the restaurant. I want their report to be explosive!”

“But, last time… Hasn’t President Gu already clarified his relationship with you?”

“Well, how about using the title ‘Rekindle Lost Love’?”

Yan Yuxiao put on a false smile while gripping her dress with her fingers tightly. She knew that she could only get everything she wanted in the show business if Gu Zijin became her patron.

Otherwise, her mediocre acting skill as well as her not so outstanding appearance would eventually made her become nobody in the show business.

She didn’t want to go back to Yan’s family and take over that small magazine. With a scornful look showing on Yan Yuxiao’s face, she thought, ‘Grandma, why couldn’t you make good use of your relationship with Elderly Lady Gu when you were alive? Were you really satisfied with operating a magazine? If I were you, I would definitely push my way into the Gu Group.’

Seeing the scary look on Yan Yuxiao’s face, Xiaohuan couldn’t help shivering. Then she looked ahead and kept driving.

The next morning, Gu’s house.

After Qin Muxuan woke up from her dream, she rubbed her eyes lazily and found the room quite dark because the heavy curtains were still closed. Then she got up subconsciously and touched a warm arm. Gu Zijin lay on one side next to her in a sound sleep with a blanket covering his waist.

Qin Muxuan couldn’t help but take a few more glances at Gu Zijin. It seemed that this man truly was favored by God with his delicate and gorgeous face on which she couldn’t find a single flaw. In contrast with his common cold appearance, he looked more tender in his sleep.

“Have you seen enough of me?”

Hearing that heavy voice, Qin Muxuan trembled in fright and looked away in no time. Gu Zijin squinted his eyes and stared at Qin Muxuan with a meaningful look while teasing,

“Qin Muxuan, are you interested in me?”

Then she looked into his eyes and said with her teeth gritted,

“Gu Zijin, don’t be so shameless.”

“Answer my question honestly.”

Gu Zijin pulled her into his arms and forced her to look into his eyes like a beast imprisoning its prey. Qin Muxuan, eyelashes fluttering lightly, said,

“I have no interest in you… I told you long ago that you are just Xiaobai’s dad to me.”

“Really? You’d better not be lying.”

Gu Zijin let go of Qin Muxuan with the look in his eyes turning cold again. Then he stood up to get changed. Qin Muxuan showed a complicated look in her eyes and twitched her mouth bitterly, thinking, ‘Even if I have a crush on you, what else can I do?’

She and the Gu Family were living in different worlds.

When she got downstairs to eat breakfast, she saw Elderly Lady Gu already sit on the main seat, which was a very rare thing. Qin Xiaobai ran downstairs in his suspender trousers. Seeing him coming over, Elderly Lady Gu spread her arms and tried to hug him. However, he completely ignored her and said,

“Dabai, I want to eat a boiled egg. Then I can grow taller and protect you.”

“Good boy, Xiaobai. You only need to protect yourself well.”

Qin Xiaobai stuck around Qin Muxuan and refused to leave with his chubby hands holding Qin Muxuan’s. Elderly Lady Gu who felt distressed to see that turned away her head at once.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

After Gu Zijin finished breakfast, he stood up and walked outside. Elderly Lady Gu said sullenly,

“Zijin, wait, I have something to say to you.”

Gu Zijin, with a frigid look in his eyes, compressed his lips and said,

“What?”

“How could you leave Yuxiao at the restaurant alone yesterday?”

“What else do you think I should do?”

Qin Muxuan didn’t understand the conversation between them, but she guessed that Gu Zijin stayed with Yan Yuxiao yesterday. However, yesterday when she called him, he told her that he had to work overtime.

Qin Muxuan couldn’t help but sneer at herself with a sad look in her eyes. ‘Gu Zijin is only flirting with me. How could I almost take that seriously?’

“Dabai, is the breakfast not tasty for you?”

Seeing Qin Muxuan holding a slice of bread for a long while, Qin Xiaobai asked that. Then Qin Muxuan bit the bread and said,

“No, it’s good… I was just distracted.”

“Oh, then eat well, Dabai. I’m leaving for school.”

Qin Xiaobai stood up and kissed Qin Muxuan. After that, he fetched his backpack and went to school. Elderly Lady Gu’s face already flushed with rage because of Gu Zijin’s words. At last, Gu Zijin didn’t say anything more considering Elderly Lady Gu’s body condition.

After Gu Zijin and Qin Xiaobai had left, Elderly Lady Gu walked upstairs while thumping her walking stick on the ground. As she passed Qin Muxuan, she said in a grim voice,

“Miss Qin, I hope you can know your place!”

Qin Muxuan closed her mouth tightly and stepped aside without saying anything. Then she watched Elderly Lady Gu going upstairs.

Sometimes someone was just hostile to another one for no reason. She felt that she hadn’t done anything wrong but Elderly Lady Gu still held grudges against her. Qin Muxuan took a breath slightly and looked for her drawings which she hadn’t finished yesterday.

Her drawings were placed on the table in the living room neatly. Seeing the tidy handwriting on the papers as well as some modifications on her design, she couldn’t help but open her eyes wide. ‘Did Gu Zijin do this for me last night?’

After thinking of Gu Zijin’s character… She knew that even if he really had done this, he wouldn’t say a word anyway. Qin Muxuan felt a bit touched but also a little bitter. After a long while, after she tied up her hair and sat down, she contacted He Cheng and sent the final drawing to her customers for them to check.

This drawing could test if she was able to start working. It would be the best if her customers could be satisfied with her work. If not, she just needed to study harder.

It was a foggy day.

When school was over, Qin Xiaobai didn’t ask Uncle Chen to bring him home right away. Instead, he said in a soft voice,

“Uncle Chen, can you send me to my dad? I want to go back home with him.”

Uncle Chen looked at the plump boy, finding that request quite reasonable, so he agreed right away. Qin Xiaobai then blinked his eyes while watching the changing scene outside the window.

Before Gu Zijin got off work, Lisa walked into his office. It was very rare that she had to organize her words first before she spoke,

“President Gu… Your son is here for you.”

“My son?”

Gu Zijin raised his head, with coldness in his eyes. Lisa made her resolution right away,

“Don’t worry, President Gu, I’ll never tell anyone else that you have a son.”

Gu Zijin, with no comments toward her attitude, put down his pen while saying with the corner of his mouth lifted,

“Fine, I’ll meet him now.”

“Yes, President.”

The moment Gu Zijin pushed the door of the guest room open, he saw Qin Xiaobai eating an apple in an enjoyable way with his short legs swaying back and forth. When Qin Xiaobai heard the sound of the door, he turned around and said with his bright eyes sparkling,

“Dad.”
