No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Chapter 397: Things Between Men



Gu Zijin was the one who invited him. Yin Youting thought something had happened to Qin Muxuan when he received the call.

“What’s wrong with Muxuan?” Yin Youting was frantic, and he was almost furious, “Gu Zijin, if you can’t take care of her, just let her go, okay?!”

Gu Zijin’s mouth twitched and he hung up.

Taking a deep breath, Qin Muxuan looked at him wonderingly.

“What’s wrong?”

Gu Zijin looked as though nothing had happened. “Nothing. I called the wrong number.”

The call went through again:

“Gu Zijin, did you just hang up on me?!”

Gu Zijin ignored Yin Youting’s accusation and said,

“Mr. Yin, thank you for taking care of my wife for the past few years, so my wife and I are going to treat you to a meal to express our gratitude.”

He emphasized the word ‘wife’. Clearly, he was declaring ownership.

Yin Youting was so angry that he gritted his teeth and didn’t say anything for a long time.

“Mr. Yin, are you still there? Did you hear what I just said?”

Gu Zijin sounded quite formal but Yin Youting felt that it was particularly annoying.

“Yes!” He almost spat out the word.

“How’s Muxuan? Why did she faint yesterday?” To him, fighting with Gu Zijin wasn’t as important as Qin Muxuan’s health.

“She’s fine.”

The two of them quickly determined the time and place over the phone, and they couldn’t wait to hang up. Obviously, both of them didn’t want to say anything extra to each other.

After hanging up, Gu Zijin turned his head and saw Qin Muxuan looking at him with smiling eyes.

Her eyes were as clear as crystal. Gu Zijin leaned forward and kissed her rosy lips.

“What’s wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?” Gu Zijin said in a low voice, as if the best cello was being played.

Qin Muxuan only felt the tip of her ear tingling. Uneasily, she turned her head and mumbled, “How childish!”

Gu Zijin chuckled, “Did I say it wrong? You are my wife.”

“I never said that I would marry you,” Qin Muxuan was unwilling to submit and she wanted to have the upper hand.

How could Gu Zijin let her go? He held her slender waist with one hand and grabbed her hand with his other hand.

“You promised to marry me just a few days ago. What? You won’t admit it now that you’ve taken advantage of me?”

“Aren’t you the one who’ve taken advantage of me?” Qin Muxuan was unhappy but her ears were red.

The more Gu Zijin looked at her, the more he fell in love with her. He couldn’t help but wonder how much he had missed over the past few years when he wasn’t around her.

Gu Zijin chose the place for the meal. And they would meet the next day.

When Qin Muxuan woke up, she saw a dress by the bed.

After freshening up, she put on the dress and took a look at herself in the mirror. The corner of Qin Muxuan’s mouth twitched.

Gu Zijin was really…

The dress was beautiful, neat and smooth, and the design was superior. The size of the dress fitted Qin Muxuan perfectly, making her look like a noble goddess.

However, it covered up almost her whole body. The dress was as long as her ankles and it has long sleeves. The collar covered her collarbone and no other parts of her could be seen except her head.

When she got to the dining room, Gu Zijin was already eating breakfast.

Qin Muxuan deliberately walked over to Gu Zijin, circled and asked, “How is it? Do I look good in it?”

Both Xiaobai and Xiaoxin praised, “Yeah, mommy looks gorgeous!”

Gu Zijin also said, “You look great.”

Qin Muxuan rubbed Xiaobai’s and Xiaoxin’s heads with a smile and sighed, “I also think that I look good in this dress, but if it was short-sleeved and V-necked, that would be better.”

Gu Zijin pretended that he hadn’t heard it.

Qin Muxuan was helpless but she didn’t get angry. She looked at her lively and lovely son and daughter who were sitting beside her, and at the way Gu Zijin pretended to ignore her but kept peeking at her. She felt incredibly relaxed and she only hoped that those happy days would last longer.

By the time the two arrived, Yin Youting was waiting for them.

Seeing the two of them show up, he quickly got up to greet them.

“Muxuan, are you alright?”

He had been with Qin Muxuan for three years, so apart from Jiang Xin, no one knew how bad her situation was than Yin Youting did.

Even though she had recovered a lot in the past year, it had become a habit of his to look after her.

He knew that Qin Muxuan had already gotten back together with Gu Zijin and that she no longer needed him, so when Qin Muxuan had relapsed the day before, he forced himself not to show up. He only let Jiang Xin go to the hospital to tell Gu Zijin the truth.

But now, when he saw Qin Muxuan, he really couldn’t help but get worried about her.

Seeing that Yin Youting’s hand was about to hold Qin Muxuan’s wrist, Gu Zijin, who always remained calm whatever happened, stopped Yin Youting’s hand quickly.

“Mr. Yin,” Gu Zijin stared at Yin Youting’s face and warned, “Please watch your behavior.”

Yin Youting didn’t like the way that Gu Zijin saw Qin Muxuan as his possession. He swung Gu Zijin’s hand away and rubbed it with his other hand gently, looking fierce.

“Seriously, you’re telling me to watch my behavior? Yes, Gu Zijin, you behave like you really care about her now. But where were you when Muxuan got in trouble? Where were you when Xiaobai and Xiaoxin were born? She…”

“Yin Youting!”

Yin Youting’s words were like the sharpest thorns, stabbing Gu Zijin’s heart and overwhelming him with pain.

The peaceful and beautiful life of the past few days was torn apart by Yin Youting’s merciless words.

“Ha,” Yin Youting sneered, “where were you when she brought up those two children alone? Where were you when she was seriously ill? And where were you when her company was facing bankruptcy?

“When she needed you the most, where were you?”

Yin Youting particularly emphasized his last sentence, which was followed by a punch that he had long waited to do.

“Ah!”

With Qin Muxuan’s screaming, Gu Zijin was heavily punched. If Qin Muxuan hadn’t held him, he would have fallen to the ground.

At first, Qin Muxuan planned to figure out a way to persuade the two of them to calm down. After all, she had always seen Yin Youting as her best friend and Gu Zijin was the one she loved. But she didn’t expect Yin Youting to punch Gu Zijin without warning.

“Youting, what are you doing?!”

Qin Muxuan looked at Gu Zijin’s bleeding mouth and couldn’t help blaming Yin Youting.

Yin Youting shook his hand and said softly, “Nothing. Just teaching him a lesson.”

“You…”

Qin Muxuan was going to say something but was pulled behind by Gu Zijin.

Gu Zijin stood straight and his neat hair got a little messed up by the punch. Combined with the bruises and blood at the corner of his mouth, instead of looking embarrassed, he looked quite handsome.

“Zijin…”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

“Stand there, and don’t move,” Gu Zijin said, “This is between the two of us.”

As soon as he said that, he quickly threw a punch at Yin Youting.
