No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

After a while, Qin Muxuan and Xiaobai were told to go out as the shooting was about to begin.

Because Qin Muxuan and Xiaobai had asked for a few days off, the director planned to finish the scenes within two days, so they had quite a tight schedule.

Thankfully, Qin Xiaobai and Qin Muxuan were very professional when it came to acting. Almost all the scenes were finished by doing it just once. Even if there were some scenes in which the director thought that they could do better, the director just asked them to redo it very politely.

Of course, Qin Muxuan knew why the director was treating her with such unusual politeness. She could not help but feel helpless and guilty, so she took each scene even more seriously.

After filming Qin Muxuan’s last scene for the day, the director looked away from the monitor with satisfaction. He clapped his hands and said, “Great, Xiao Xuan, you’re in a great state today. You did a perfect job!”

Qin Muxuan bowed and thanked him, “Thank you, Director.” Then she retreated to the side.

Qin Xiaobai had more scenes than Qin Muxuan, so he still had to act for a while. Qin Muxuan walked to the director and asked politely, “Director, can I sit by your side and watch it?”

It was a small matter. Of course, the director would agree to it.

When the staff heard that, they hurriedly brought a chair there. Qin Muxuan smiled and thanked them before sitting down.

The staff was immersed in Qin Muxuan’s smiles, and they said to themselves that Qin Muxuan was so nice. Unlike those actresses who acted like a diva just because they’re related to the patrons, she was gentle and polite to everyone.

If Qin Muxuan knew that they all thought of Gu Zijin as her patron, she would get furious. But she didn’t know it now.

It was the first time that Qin Muxuan saw Qin Xiaobai on the monitor and she had an indescribable feeling.

Every facial expression and every movement of Qin Xiaobai’s was projected several times larger by the monitor into Qin Muxuan’s eyes. Qin Muxuan even felt that she could feel the same feelings as he did. It was true that Xiaobai was born to be an actor.

An hour later, the director finally said “Cut!” and Qin Xiaobai was also done for today.

With a big smile on his face, Director reached out to touch Xiaobai’s head. Obviously he was very satisfied with Xiaobai’s performance, “Xiaobai, after a few days’ rest, you’re doing even better! You’re the star of tomorrow!”

Hearing the director’s generous praise, Qin Xiaobai did not show much joy on his face. He subconsciously tilted his head to get away from the director’s hand and thanked him.

The director took his hand back sulkily. Although Qin Xiaobai was just a ten-year-old child, he had exactly the same aura as his father did.

And the next second, when he saw Qin Muxuan standing in front of the monitor, Qin Xiaobai’s face instantly changed. He relaxed his eyebrows and ran to Qin Muxuan with an extremely obedient smile, “Aunty Qin, how did I perform just now?”

Qin Muxuan smiled and rubbed Xiaobai’s head, “You did a great job. When you cried, I almost cried with you.”

The smile on Qin Xiaobai’s face deepened. He even moved his head closer to Qin Muxuan’s hand, as if he were a pet waiting to be fondled.

Everyone watched the intimate interaction between Qin Muxuan and Qin Xiaobai and was so shocked that their jaws were about to drop. Originally, they thought that as Qin Xuan was about to become his stepmother, Qin Xiaobai would be hostile to her. Who would have thought that their relationship would be so good, and that they were even more intimate than some biological mothers and sons?

Everyone looked at Qin Muxuan with admiration. She not only won the big shot’s heart, she also got along with the big shot’s son!

After the shooting, Qin Muxuan went back to the lounge to pack up her stuff while Xiaobai tagged along.

There were only the two of them in the room. Qin Muxuan looked at Xiaobai who became suddenly clingy and felt a little helpless, “Xiaobai, tell Yiyi to send you back. Aunty Jian Xi will send me back later.”

Hearing that, Qin Xiaobai pulled a long face, “But I want to go back with you, Da Bai.”

Qin Muxuan couldn’t bear it, but she explained patiently, “No one knows about our real relationship now. If we go home together, it would be too high-profile. I don’t want them to talk about you behind your back.”

Although Gu Zijin’s arrival today was high-profile enough, Qin Muxuan felt that she couldn’t do the same as he did. She still had to try her best to maintain a low profile.

Qin Muxuan didn’t care about what other people said about her, but it was unbearable for her to get Xiaobai and Xiaoxin involved.

Qin Xiaobai knew that whatever Qin Muxuan did, she did it for his own good. Though he felt a little disappointed, he still nodded obediently.

Qin Xiaobai hadn’t seen Yiyi for a long time, so he called her. Qin Muxuan didn’t know what Yiyi said on the other end of the phone, but Qin Xiaobai just nodded from time to time and sometimes sneaked a glance at Qin Muxuan.

Even though Qin Muxuan was packing up her stuff, she still felt Qin Xiaobai’s gaze and she asked wonderingly, “What’s wrong?”

Qin Xiaobai hung up the phone and shook his head. “Nothing.”

Qin Muxuan didn’t overthink it. She told him to sit here and wait for his assistant. Then she started calling Jian Xi.

Qin Muxuan didn’t know whether Jian Xi was avoiding her or whether she was busy. As Qin Muxuan’s assistant, Jian Xi just disappeared after taking her to the set.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Jian Xi picked up the phone after a long while. “Hello?”

Qin Muxuan said helplessly, “Come on, are you avoiding me? I haven’t seen you all day long. Are you my assistant, or am I your assistant?”

The person on the other end of the phone seemed unable to follow her. It took her a long time to figure out the teasing in Qin Muxuan’s tone, but she was in no mood for joking at all. “You’re done for today?”

From what Qin Muxuan knew about Jian Xi and judging from her tone, she quickly realized that something was wrong. She stopped kidding and asked worriedly, “Jian Xi, what’s wrong? Did something bad happen?”

Qin Muxuan felt that something had happened to Jian Xi recently and that it had something to do with Mu Ming, but Jian Xi refused to tell her.

Even though Qin Muxuan couldn’t see her expression on the phone, Jian Xi still forced a smile, “Nothing. You’re still on the set? I’ll go pick you up.”

Qin Muxuan said “Yes” and decided to ask her in person.

Qin Xiaobai wanted to say something when Qin Muxuan was making the call but eventually he didn’t say it.

Seeing that Qin Muxuan looked worried after she hung up, Qin Xiaobai could not help but feel anxious, “Da Bai, what’s wrong?”

Qin Muxuan forced a smile at him, “Nothing. Something seemed to have happened to Aunty Jian Xi. I’ll ask her when she’s here.”

Qin Xiaobai endured for a long time but couldn’t hold back. “Da Bai, why not just tell Aunty Jian Xi not to pick you up today?”

Qin Muxuan looked at Qin Xiaobai wonderingly, “Why?”

Qin Xiaobai mustered up his courage and said, “Because my dad said he was coming to pick us up, and he should be here soon!”

As soon as Qin Xiaobai finished that sentence, the door of the lounge opened. Gu Zijin stood tall and handsome in a smart suit at the door.

But this image of his only irritated Qin Muxuan. She even wanted to hit Gu Zijin’s head. Didn’t they agree that he wouldn’t pick her up after it was over? And what about their talk of keeping a low profile?
