No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Hearing that sharp voice, Qin Muxuan felt her nerves on edge. Then she bit her lips and said,

“Elderly Lady Gu, I only attended a party among our colleagues. It’s not like what you think!”

“Then what is it like? You don’t have any sense of shame, but our family, the great Gu Family does!”

Qin Muxuan didn’t say anything and tried her best to hold back her anger. She had no right to lose her temper now and had to swallow the insults for the sake of Xiaobai.

“Grandma.”

“Great Grandma.”

Two voices sounded at the same time. Gu Zijin never realized that Qin Xiaobai would be so connected to him. Then he said with his eyebrows knitted,

“The party Qin Muxuan joined yesterday truly is only among her colleagues. Grandma, you don’t have to push her so hard.”

Qin Xiaobai nodded as a concurrence. After that, he held Qin Muxuan with his little hand to let the latter sit down and defended his mother,

“Great Grandma, you are a devil! You can’t talk about my mommy like this!”

After Elderly Lady Gu had seen that the man and the boy both argued for Qin Muxuan, her face turned completely green with rage. At last, she still managed to swallow her pride and stopped talking. Qin Muxuan only had a few bites of the meal and then left to work with Gu Zijin. On the way, Gu Zijin said with a complicated look on his handsome face,

“Don’t take grandma’s words to heart.”

“President Gu, you don’t have to explain to me. I’ll leave after one and a half month. Moreover, Elderly Lady Gu was right. I did have gone to every expedient to have sex with you five years ago. Also, I refuse to leave the Gu’s house because of Xiaobai, so it’s true that Gu Family feeds me and offers me a place to live.”

Gu Zijin frowned with displeasure,

“Enough!”

“Enough? Gu Zijin, I’m just that kind of person, don’t you know that?”

Gu Zijin slammed on the brake all of a sudden. Qin Muxuan, her face turning completely pale, almost fell ahead due to her inertia. In the meantime, she only felt the grievance and anger inside of her intensifying. Gu Zijin opened the car door, saying,

“Get out of the car.”

“No!”

Gu Zijin opened the door by the front passenger’s seat straightly and dragged Qin Muxuan out. The latter bit her lips with tears in her eyes.

Gu Zijin curled his lips and said,

“Let’s go.”

“To where?”

“I’ll take you to breakfast.”‘

Qin Muxuan was a bit stunned. She hadn’t had enough food on the table indeed. However, she didn’t want the one that took her to breakfast to be Gu Zijin, or anyone from the Gu’s Family!

“Qin Muxuan, I never think of you like that.”

The magnetic voice came through from the front, which gave Qin Muxuan a shock. The next second, she was already dragged into a breakfast buffet.

In no time, there was a set of simple meal being placed on the table. Qin Muxuan took a bite of the steamed stuffed bun and a lump came into her throat. Gu Zijin sat opposite to her and watched her finishing the meal. After that, Qin Muxuan lowered her head and said,

“Sorry, I shouldn’t have lost my temper to you.”

Gu Zijin didn’t say anything, but the look in his eyes seemed quite complicated. After calling the servant over to pay the bills, he stood up and reached out his hand to Qin Muxuan,

“Let’s go. We are already half an hour late.”

The Gu Group.

Lisa took a look at the empty President’s Office. This was the first time Gu Zijin arrived late for work all those years. Qin Muxuan wiped away her tears before she started her work, trying her best to hide the fact that she had wept. After Gu Zijin walked out of the car, he glanced at Qin Muxuan who prepared to wait for another fifteen minutes by the car and then said in a low voice,

“We’re already late. No one would see us. Let’s get in together.”

Qin Muxuan nodded with hesitation. Neither of them noticed that a car had just parked in the corner of the underground parking lot. As Chu Feng was about to get out of the car, he saw Gu Zijin and Qin Muxuan walking into the elevator while holding their hands. After Chu Feng confirmed that he hadn’t got it wrong, he was stricken to the heart right away. ‘Does Gu Zijin like Qin Muxuan? They are already together now?’ He thought.

The office on the eleventh floor.

Qin Muxuan was a bit surprised to see Chu Feng arriving at this moment. Then she asked,

“Chu Feng, why are you late too?”

“Eh, I was drunk last night. By the way, where have you been yesterday? I have looked for you for a long while. Only after the waiter told me that you had come home did I feel relieved…”

Chu Feng stared at Qin Muxuan’s face, fearful of getting an answer that he didn’t want to hear. The girl whom he had just confessed his affection to last night turned out to be the girlfriend of another man who happened to be his boss. As Chu Feng thought of that, he only felt suffocated and nearly got depression.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Hearing the question about last night, Qin Muxuan could only talk vaguely,

“Yeah, my dog got sick last night, so I got worried and went back in a hurry. Sorry that I’ve forgotten to tell you.”

“It’s fine. Also… Qin Muxuan, are you…”

Chu Feng hummed and hawed for quite a while and still didn’t finish that sentence. Qin Muxuan stared at him questioningly. It seemed that he wished to say something but stopped on second thought.

“It’s nothing. I’ll go back to work.”

“Fine.”

As Chu Feng walked to the outside, his shoulder bumped the door, which made him nearly cry out in pain. Qin Muxuan couldn’t help but frown, feeling Chu Feng being quite weird today.

The President’s Office on the twenty-first floor.

After Gu Zijin had called Lisa over, he said to her with his finger dabbing the solid wood desk.

“Is there a man named Chu Feng working on our cooperative project with Qixing Group?”

“Yes, he is our person for communicating with Qixing Group.”

“Send him to supervise the construction site.”

Lisa suddenly felt that there was something wrong with her listening. Since when did her president care about such a little thing? However, she still followed that order without any hesitation. When Lisa finally remembered that Qin Muxuan was sent here by Qixing Group, she understood what was going on right away. Was the president jealous of Chu Feng?

At lunch time, Qin Muxuan didn’t see Chu Feng. Since she was not familiar with anyone else in the company, she could only eat by herself. Then, she heard the discussion of some of her female colleagues from the next table,

“Have you heard of it? A girl was signed to the entertainment branch of our Group by our president himself!”

“Who is that?”

“Yan Yuxiao, that B-list star. Quite good-looking, but a bit bad-tempered. She was spotted bullying the newbies a few times.”

“Our president signed her by himself… You don’t think our president has a thing for Yan Xiaoyu, do you?”

“Don’t talk carelessly. Our president might hear those words.”

After that, they all stopped talking. Qin Muxuan felt a bit uncomfortable hearing that. As she thought of Yan Yuxiao, she couldn’t help but mock herself inwardly, ‘It’s so obvious that Elderly Lady Gu likes Yan Yuxiao a lot. Am I feeling disappointed now?’

Only after Qin Muxuan had finished lunch did she learn that Chu Feng had been sent to the construction site. The girl who replaced him was called Mu Mu. This long-haired girl seemed quite genial with the beaming smile on her face.

“Sister Qin, can you tell me how to do this? Chu Feng told me that you are good at designing.”

Following that voice, Qin Muxuan found the problem with the drawing. Then she started to tutor Mu Mu patiently. After a while, Mu Mu raised her head and seemed to be enlightened, saying,

“Sister Qin, you are awesome! You should be in the Gu Group instead of Qixing Group. Our manager should have poached you.”

No one had ever praised Qin Muxuan like this before. Now she couldn’t help but blush.
