No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Qin Muxuan stood neither too close nor too far away, so she couldn’t hear what Gu Zijin was saying clearly. She only heard her and Xiaoxin’s names, and she also saw Gu Zijin’s frowning. Because of this, Qin Muxuan got a little worried and had a bad feeling about it.

Qin Muxuan walked to Gu Zijin’s side and stood quietly without saying a word.

Gu Zijin was in a trance and he only saw Qin Muxuan when she was already standing by his side. He smiled slightly and said, “You’re done? Let’s go eat.”

Qin Muxuan asked directly, “Who were you just talking to? I think I heard my name and Xiaoxin’s name.”

Gu Zijin was stunned but didn’t say anything immediately.

When she saw Gu Zijin’s expression, Qin Muxuan’s heart turned cold. She pretended to be understanding and smiled, “It’s okay, I’m just curious. It’s fine if you find it hard to tell me.”

Gu Zijin actually didn’t intend to hide it from Qin Muxuan. Now that he heard her saying that, he felt quite sorry.

“My mother wants you to take Xiaoxin to her place. She wants to see Xiaoxin. Is it okay?”

Qin Muxuan was stunned. Originally, she thought that it was his father who called him. After all, he came to see herself a few days ago, and he even tried to force a cheque on her to embarrass her, but she didn’t expect that his mother would make such a request.

Qin Muxuan was conflicted. If it was Gu Zijin’s father, she could refuse without hesitation, but Gu Zijin’s mother was different. After all, four years ago, she was one of the very few people in the Gu Family who were sincere to her. Qin Muxuan felt a little grateful towards her.

Besides, Mrs. Gu was also Xiaoxin’s grandmother. It was understandable that she wanted to see Xiaoxin. To be honest, Qin Muxuan couldn’t find it in her to say no to Mrs. Gu.

Seeing that Qin Muxuan had not responded for a long time, Gu Zijin thought she was unwilling. After all, the the Gu Family did give her too many bad memories. Elderly Lady Gu, Yan Yuxiao, and even himself had hurt her.

Gu Zijin didn’t want to make things difficult for Qin Muxuan, “If you don’t want to go, I can tell my mother.”

Qin Muxuan shook her head, and she didn’t sound as painful as Gu Zijin imagined, “No, it’s better that we hear Xiaoxin’s opinion. After all, they want to see her.”

Gu Zijin was a little surprised. He didn’t expect Qin Muxuan would say something like that. He thought she would reject without hesitation.

But Gu Zijin didn’t ask too much and nodded. “Okay, let’s go down and eat first.”

When the two of them got downstairs, Xiaobai and Xiaoxin were already sitting at the dining table. Xiaoxin was short, so some dishes were out of her reach, so she sweetly asked Xiaobai to help her get them. And Xiaobai did it accordingly.

The aunt smiled and looked at the two of them happily, and she didn’t intervene and offered to help.

Seeing Qin Muxuan and Gu Zijin go downstairs, the smile on the aunt’s face deepened. “Sir, Madam, you are here. Are you eating now?”

When she heard the word “Madam”, Qin Muxuan was stunned for a moment. She wanted to explain but when she saw Gu Zijin’s indifferent expression, she swallowed the words before she said them.

Gu Zijin nodded at the aunt, “Mhmm, we’ll eat now.”

The aunt replied with a yes and went to fill the bowls with rice, while Qin Muxuan and Gu Zijin sat down.

When she saw Qin Muxuan sitting next to her, Xiaoxin reluctantly raised her head from her bowl and sounded a little unhappy. “Mommy, why are you up so late? You once said that sleeping late is a bad habit!”

Qin Muxuan was almost made speechless by her biological daughter, so she smiled awkwardly, “Sorry, Xiaoxin, I didn’t do it on purpose. I had to stay up last night.”

“Then you can’t say anything if I sleep late next time!”

Seeing how Xiaoxin was pushing her luck, Qin Muxuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, but she was the one who ate her words here, so she could only compromise, “Okay, when you’re not going to school and when we don’t have any plans for the day, you can occasionally sleep late, okay?”

Xiaoxin nodded with satisfaction and buried her head in her meal again.

After coaxing Xiaoxin, Qin Muxuan breathed a sigh of relief. Then she sensed Xiaobai’s mischievous gaze of .

Xiaobai looked at him with a faint smile, and then raised an eyebrow at Gu Zijin, while Gu Zijin also replied with a raised eyebrow. The smile on Xiaobai’s face deepened.

Qin Muxuan really wanted to cover her forehead helplessly. Xiaobai was only ten years old. How could he become like this, knowing everything that he should and should not know?

Today, Qin Muxuan was very suspicious. When the aunt placed a bowl of rice twice as much as usual in front of her and said considerately, “Madam, you’re so skinny. You should eat more”, Qin Muxuan wanted to find a hole to hide herself in there. She strongly suspected that the aunt overheard what they did in their room last night!

Of course, Qin Muxuan still replied politely, “Thank you.”

Qin Muxuan glared at Gu Zijin who was sitting next to her, feeling even more frustrated. He looked so calm, and he seemed to have a better appetite than usual and he ate a lot of dishes.

Seeing that Xiaoxin was almost done eating, Gu Zijin also stopped.

Gu Zijin thought for a moment and started with something that would be interesting for most children, “Xiaoxin, do you want to go out and play?”

Qin Muxuan glanced at him. He’s going to trick Xiaoxin?

Xiaoxin was surprised and nodded, “Yeah!” Then she grabbed Xiaobai’s hand, “I want to go out and play with my brother!”

Xiaobai looked at Xiaoxin’s naivete and smiled.

“Then I will you take you to the amusement park, okay?” Gu Zijin continued to ask.

Xiaoxin nodded bluntly. Even though it was fun here at home, it was not as tempting as an amusement park.

“Before we go to the amusement park, do you want to see Papa’s mother?”

The smile on Xiaobai’s face froze. She subconsciously looked at Qin Muxuan, who continued to eat very calmly.

Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief. Qin Muxuan seemed to know about this.

Xiaoxin didn’t quite understand. “Who is Papa’s mother? Why should I see her?”

Gu Zijin explained patiently, “Papa’s mother is Xiaoxin’s grandmother. She knows that I have a lovely daughter who is named Xiaoxin. She really wants to see you. And your mommy and brother will be there with you, okay?”

Even though she couldn’t understand it, Xiaoxin agreed happily when she heard Gu Zijin said that she was cute and that mommy and brother would be there.

Indeed, it would never hurt to praise a woman, no matter how old she was.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
