No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

After dinner, Gu Zijin had a video conference. Qin Muxuan brought a glass of warm water upstairs and then knocked on the door of the study.

“Come in.”

Hearing his clear voice came through from inside, Qin Muxuan pushed the door open. Gu Zijin, wearing golden frame glasses, was video chatting with someone, with coldness in his eyes.

Qin Muxuan didn’t say anything and brought the glass to his desk quietly. After that, she wrote something on the sticky note and pasted it on the glass.

Gu Zijin raised his head to look at Qin Muxuan while clicking the mouse, saying,

“Come here.”

Qin Muxuan got dazed and pointed to herself. Gu Zijin gave a smile and nodded. Then Qin Muxuan shook her head right away, not knowing what he needed her for on a video conference.

“Gu Zijin… It’s not appropriate to let others see me.”

Gu Zijin replied to her right away,

“Is there anyone who doesn’t know about the relationship between us after the incident last time?”

Although Qin Muxuan didn’t know what he was up to, she still walked toward him. After she saw that the conference had already ended, she let out a sigh of relief and said in a louder voice,

“You scared me out of my wits. I was wondering what you wanted to do.”

Gu Zijin dragged Qin Muxuan into his arms and closed the laptop. The next second, he kissed on Qin Muxuan’s lips right away with his hand going down on her body.

Qin Muxuan, with a startled look in her eyes, finally realized what had happened and wanted to push him away. Then, his hoarse voice sounded by her ears,

“I’ll go on a business trip in Country C tomorrow. It’ll take a week.”

Hearing that he would be away for a week, Qin Muxuan suddenly felt a bit disappointed. Gu Zijin noticed the changes in Qin Muxuan’s mood and raised the corner of his mouth, saying,

“Qin Muxuan, you are fond of me, right?”

Hearing the cold and firm voice, Qin Muxuan felt that she had been totally seen through and not able to hide her feelings anymore… Was she fond of him? Yes… That time when she got drunk in the bar, she had realized that she did feel very upset when seeing Gu Zijin treating other women nicely.

Gu Zijin then held Qin Muxuan up and walked to the sofa. As Qin Muxuan looked into the deep eyes of the man, she was totally enchanted. While Gu Zijin kissed her tenderly, her mind went completely blank and she even forgot to push him away.

After Qin Xiaobai finished having dinner, he went to take a shower and then got on bed. However, he tossed about on the bed for a long time and still couldn’t fall asleep. At last, he wanted Qin Muxuan to tell him a bedtime story, so he put on the slippers and walked out of the room.

As he arrived at Qin Muxuan’s bedroom, he knocked on the door with his chubby hands, saying,

“Dabai, I want to hear a bedtime story. Dabai, are you there?”

Hearing no response from inside, Qin Xiaobai stood on tiptoe and tried to open the door. Qin Muxuan had already heard Qin Xiaobai’s voice, so had Gu Zijin. Then he had to stop and let Qin Muxuan go while wondering how he could drive Qin Xiaobai away.

Qin Xiaobai, hearing the sound of the door opening behind him, turned around and saw Qin Muxuan coming out from the study. The little boy raised his head to look at Qin Muxuan and said, “Dabai, why did you come out from the study?”

“Eh, nothing. I went to fetch your story book.”

As Qin Xiaobai heard those words, he raised the corner of his mouth and ignored the abnormal redness on his mother’s face. On the other side, Gu Zijin rubbed his eyebrows and sighed. Then he resigned himself to his destiny and went to take a cold shower.

After Qin Muxuan finished telling a story, Qin Xiaobai had already fallen asleep, with his long and curled eyelashes drooping. His delicate face was exactly the same as Gu Zijin’s. Qin Muxuan couldn’t help but stare at him for a bit longer while touching his face gently. ‘It seems that Gu Zijin’s gene really is powerful, otherwise why does Xiaobai only look like him?’ Thinking of that, Qin Muxuan felt a little unfair.

As Gu Zijin came out of the bathroom, he heard the sound of the door closing. Qin Muxuan saw that Gu Zijin only wrapped his body with a bath towel. Then she turned around right away to look away from him. With a slight smile showing on his face, he decided not to tease the bashful girl and put on his pajamas.

“Qin Muxuan.”

“Huh?”

“Help me dry my hair.”

His voice came through behind her back, sounding so charming and irresistible. Qin Muxuan could only walk over and pick up the hair dryer. Meanwhile, Gu Zijin sat there obediently on the bed and let Qin Muxuan dry his hair. As he waited for his hair to get dry, he closed his eyes. Seeing him remaining motionless the whole time, Qin Muxuan couldn’t help but speak gently,

“Gu Zijin?”

There was no response. Qin Muxuan called his name a few times patiently. Then he finally opened his eyes with an obvious tired look on his face and swallowed, saying,

“Sorry, I just wanted to close my eyes for a while just now. I don’t know how I fell asleep.”

Hearing that, Qin Muxuan got a bit touched. Although Gu Zijin always got off work on time, his workload was surely heavier than ordinary workers’. Otherwise he wouldn’t have had stomach illness. As Gu Zijin saw the worried look on her face, he pulled her into his arms and sighed,

“Stupid girl.”

Qin Muxuan bit her lips gently and said,

“Gu Zijin, do you know what I am thinking right now?”

“Yes, I’ve learned a bit mind reading before.”

After saying that, Gu Zijin reached his hand to turn off the light while Qin Muxuan still stared at him with a shocked look. ‘He has learned mind reading before? Then, is he able to read all my thoughts?’ Thinking of that, Qin Muxuan couldn’t help but get scared. Gu Zijin noticed the anxious expression on her face. Then with his mouth twitched, he didn’t even know if he should call Qin Muxuan adorable or stupid. Learning mind reading didn’t help him know the thoughts of others. The reason why he always knew what she was thinking so easily was that the expression on her face always showed clearly her thoughts.

Nevertheless, he would never tell Qin Muxuan that.

The next day, Gu Zijin woke up early to pack the suitcase since he had to take a business trip today. Qin Muxuan who was half-awake reached out her hand to hold his hand subconsciously. A hint of surprise crossed Gu Zijin’s eyes and he asked,

“Did I wake you up?”

“No, are you leaving this morning?”

Qin Muxuan blinked her eyes while disdaining herself secretly because she wanted to ask Gu Zijin to stay like a childish girl. When that thought had crossed her mind, she was even shocked by herself.

Gu Zijin seldom saw Qin Muxuan being so clingy to him. Then he bent down to kiss on Qin Muxuan’s forehead, with a tender look in his eyes.

“If I handle the affair fast, I’ll come back early. Do you want any gifts?”

“Gift?”‘

Qin Muxuan murmured. She wanted one but didn’t know what kind of gift she preferred. However, since she would be happy to receive whatever Gu Zijin gave to her, she just said,

“You don’t need to bring me a gift. I’m fine.”

Gu Zijin nodded and then got dressed. After that, he went downstairs with Qin Muxuan to have breakfast. Nanny Chen had already set the table with all kinds of dishes. Ever since Qin Xiaobai said that he was allergic to milk, Nanny Chen would replace the milk with juice every time she prepared a meal.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
