No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Qin Muxuan turned around and saw Gu Zijin. She didn’t know when he had entered the room, so she wiped the tears on the corner of her eyes in panic, saying,

“When did you come in?”

“Long ago. You were so concentrated on the phone talk and didn’t notice me.”

Gu Zijin unbuttoned his shirt and hung it on the hanger. Then he grabbed his pajamas and walked into the bathroom. When the cold water washed his body, he was thinking that Qin Muxuan clearly had cried for another man, but not for him. Also, he already knew that the man must be Yin Youting.

After all, no one else he knew would make Qin Muxuan look so sad. No matter how harshly Elderly Lady Gu had treated Qin Muxuan, she had never been so upset like this.

As he thought of that, the look in Gu Zijin’s eyes turned totally gloomy and could easily send a chill down others’ spine. In the meantime, Qin Muxuan who didn’t know what he was thinking right now rubbed her red eyes and picked a book to tell a bed-time story to Xiaobai. When Gu Zijin walked out of the bathroom and didn’t see Qin Muxuan in the room, he flushed with anger right away. ‘She already went out? To meet her lover at night?’ Thinking of that, Gu Zijin walked out with large strides.

Nanny Chen who was cleaning up the room right now saw Gu Zijin going downstairs with a sullen face. Then she couldn’t help but get scared, not knowing who had offended her young master. As Gu Zijin saw her, he asked at once,

“Where’s Qin Muxuan?”

“Isn’t Miss Qin upstairs? I didn’t see her getting down here.”

Hearing that, he finally cooled down. Right at this moment, Qin Muxuan walked out from Qin Xiaobai’s room. As she saw Gu Zijin walking downstairs without drying his hair, she showed a displeased look in her eyes. After she went down the stairs, she took the bath towel from his hand and started to dry his hair on tiptoe spontaneously. Gu Zijin lowered his head to look at Qin Muxuan without saying anything, but the cold look in his eyes obviously disappeared.

Nanny Chen didn’t believe what she saw right now. It was like Qin Muxuan was combing a tiger’s hair.

Qin Muxuan whose height was merely 167cm still found it hard to wipe his hair the whole time. Then she said,

“Let’s go back, I’ll dry your hair with a hair dryer.”

“Fine.”

Gu Zijin followed Qin Muxuan tamely while the latter was yawning. After they walked into the room, she connected power to the hair dryer right away. Meanwhile, Gu Zijin already sat by the bed. Then she started to dry his hair in front of him. Suddenly, he put his hands on her waist and dragged her into his arms at once. Qin Muxuan wasn’t sleepy any more and shouted,

“Gu Zijin…!”

“I’m a bit tired. Just let me hug you for a while.”

Qin Muxuan could only stay in his arms and dried his hair softly. Only when she finished that did she find that Gu Zijin had already fallen asleep. Then she had no choice but to call him,

“Gu Zijin, your hair is dry now.”

After she called his name for a few times, he still didn’t respond. After that, Qin Muxuan helplessly carried this giant-dog-like man to the bed. What was more, the moment Gu Zijin lay down on the bed, he hugged Qin Muxuan tightly. In the end, she could only sleep like that.

The next day, Qin Muxuan had a pain in the back. Gu Zijin had held her in his arms the whole night, which made her have to stay in the same position the whole time.

Qin Xiaobai had already finished eating his breakfast. Today was a day off for him and his tutor had already arrived at the Gu’s house. Although Qin Xiaobai wanted to have a rest, he still had to go to study since the tutor was here. When he saw Qin Muxuan walking downstairs, he said right away as if he had seen his savior,

“Mommy, can I stop doing my homework today? It’s too much and too boring.”

Qin Muxuan had to coax him,

“You are a good boy, Xiaobai. How about cooking snow pear soup for you after you finish studying today?”

When he heard the three words ‘Snow Pear Soup’, Qin Xiaobao’s eyes sparkled at once. Then he nodded in a hurry right away. It was also one of those rare days when Gu Zijin took a day off, so he got up late today. When he woke up, he saw Qin Muxuan reading a book on the couch. Then he rubbed his eyebrows and walked toward her, saying,

“What time is it?”

“It’s nine o’clock.”

Seeing Qin Muxuan concentrating on the book all the time and not glimpsing at him at all, Gu Zijin couldn’t help but feel a bit unhappy, so he coughed. However, Qin Muxuan still had no reaction at all. Then he reached out his slender and fair hand and closed the book in front of Qin Muxuan.

Qin Muxuan who was immersed in reading got displeased at once after her book had been closed by him, saying,

“I haven’t finished yet.”

“You’ll be shortsighted if you read books for too long. Today is my day off. Let’s take Xiaobai to a restaurant.”

“Let’s eat at home. What if we are spotted by others outside?”

Gu Zijin frowned immediately, thinking, ‘Since when do you think going out with me is a humiliating thing?’ Qin Muxuan saw the sullen look on his face and could only compromise, saying,

“Then let’s go to a place where there are not so many people. I know an unpopular western restaurant in the western area. How about going there?”

Gu Zijin nodded as an agreement. Then he went to wash his face and get dressed. Qin Xiaobai had already finished doing his homework. Hearing that he could go out for lunch, he got in the car excitedly with Gu Zijin and Qin Muxuan right away. On the way to the restaurant, he said,

“Dabai, this place is very far. You’ve never taken me there.”

Qin Muxuan then realized that the last time she went to that restaurant was five years ago. She didn’t even know if that restaurant was still open. Then she said in a low voice,

“Gu Zijin, perhaps the restaurant has already closed down.”

Gu Zijin tapped on the steering wheel and told her that it didn’t matter. After a while, he parked the black Bentley in front of the western restaurant. When Qin Muxuan saw that the restaurant was still open, she couldn’t help but get a bit emotional thinking of the past. This restaurant used to be her favorite. Although it was not very popular, the environment here was very quiet. When she suggested coming here, she hadn’t given too much hope about it. Never did she expect that Gu Zijin would agree with her so quickly.

After they walked to the loft on the second floor, they saw the delicate and low-key design style of the restaurant. The owner seemed a bit aged. When he saw there were customers, he came over to greet then right away. It took him a long time to recognize Qin Muxuan’s face after he adjusted his glasses. Then he said with excitement,

“Miss Qin, is that you?”

“Yes, Uncle De. I want Medium Well steak and a fried egg as before.”Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“No problem. What about this sir and little boy?”

Qin Xiaobai who was not picky about food ordered a salad and pizza. Gu Zijin ordered a cup of coffee and a steak with lemon sauce. Then the three of them sat on the seat.

This was a small restaurant situated in the residential area. It was really hard to find it. Gu Zijin sized up this place and then asked,

“You always came here before?”

Qin Muxuan didn’t expect that he would ask that. Then she answered with a yes. Before, when she had to face her stepmother who often set her up while putting on a smile all the time, she always got depressed. Therefore, she had found herself this place.
