No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

It was evening. The sunset glow filtered into the ward through the window. Qin Muxuan had already changed her clothes. Gu Zijin was waiting for her in the car outside the hospital. Only when he saw Qin Muxuan coming out did the cold look on his face become softened. Qin Muxuan looked much better now. However, when she sat on the passenger seat, she still felt a bit worried. After all, Elderly Lady Gu’s attitude was quite obvious and she still remembered that the people on the Internet had all targeted her as if they had reached an agreement.

The package which she had received in the Gu’s house was a warning. Now it looked like she still had to face the same thing after she went back. As she thought of that, she lowered her head and tried to hide her feelings. It didn’t take long for them to arrive at the Gu’s house. The moment Gu Zijin opened the car door, Qin Xiaobai jumped to Qin Muxuan right away. He looked at Qin Muxuan with a cheerful look and said,

“Dabai, where have you been all day?’

Gu Zijin hadn’t told Qin Xiaobai that Qin Muxuan was ill, so the boy had no idea where she had gone. However, Qin Xiaobai still noticed Qin Muxuan’s pale face. Then he looked to Gu Zijin and muttered,

“Dad, have you made mommy angry again?”

Hearing that, Qin Muxuan couldn’t help but chuckle, ‘Xiaobai, your logic is a bit strange. Why are you always putting all the blame on your daddy?’ Gu Zijin didn’t explain anything, so Qin Xiaobai hugged Qin Muxuan as if he was protecting her and made a face at Gu Zijin.

After Elderly Lady Gu heard that Qin Muxuan was back, she snorted and then walked upstairs with her walking stick. If it were not for Qin Xiaobai, she would never agree to let Qin Muxuan stay in the Gu’s house anymore. Although she was an aged lady now, she was still able to sense that nearly everyone in her family had taken Qin Muxuan’s side.

Mrs. Gu asked Nanny Chen to cook nutritious porridge at once when she saw Qin Muxuan entering the room. Then Mrs. Gu stepped forward to inquire about Qin Muxuan’s condition. Although Qin Muxuan knew that perhaps Mrs. Gu would show concern to anyone who was sick, she was still a bit touched inwardly. After all, she had seldom been treated tenderly ever since her childhood.

Qin Muxuan showed a gentle smile and said,

“I’m fine, Mrs. Gu. I just had a fever before. Now I’m already recovered.”

“That’s fine. That’s fine. Muxuan, sit here and have a rest.”

“Yes, Mrs. Gu.”

Ye Han felt a bit uncomfortable when hearing Qin Muxuan calling her Mrs. Gu. Actually, if Qin Muxuan had a clean family background and wasn’t burdened with so many rumours, Mrs. Gu would love to hear Qin Muxuan calling her mother. What was more, Mrs. Gu knew that her son was a warm-hearted man with a cold face. Although he always treated Qin Muxuan coldly, Mrs. Gu had already sensed that he did care about Qin Muxuan. In Mrs. Gu’s view, although the affection Gu Zijin had toward Qin Muxuan wasn’t that much, he actually treated the latter very differently from the other women. Mrs. Gu was glad that her son finally had feelings for another woman.

After Qin Muxuan had got back, Qin Xiaobai stuck to her like glue all the time. He served the tea and peeled fruits for her, not even giving a chance to Nanny Chen to do those jobs. Gu Zijin wanted to approach Qin Muxuan but was blocked by the innocent boy several times. At last, Gu Zijin found Qin Xiaobai a hindrance and lifted the back collar of the boy’s shirt, saying,

“You still have to take the class at home later. Go prepare your lessons.”

Qin Xiaobai waved his little hands while glaring at Gu Zijin, saying,

“I’ve already prepared the lessons. Also, I am clever enough and don’t need the preparation…”

“There’s no room for discussion.”

Qin Xiaobai, the boy with short arms and legs, was no match for Gu Zijin for sure. In no time, he was taken to another place by Gu Zijin. Then Qin Xiaobai could only look at Gu Zijin while thinking, ‘Daddy, you are such a hindrance. You always take my Dabai away from me.”

It was getting dark. Qin Muxuan got a bit drowsy and fell asleep on the couch. Gu Zijin covered her body with a blanket. Even when Qin Muxuan was asleep, there was still a frown on her face as if she had this pent-up frustration the whole time. Seeing that, Gu Zijin only felt his heart aching for her. As he remembered what had happened over the past few days, he showed a gloomy look in his eyes, thinking, ‘Maybe this is not a bad thing. Qin Muxuan will realize that staying with me is the safest for her.’

When Qin Muxuan woke up, she saw the cell phone on the bedside table right away. Then she summoned the courage to check her phone. However, to her surprise, there was no new message from Weibo. Moreover, it was like the discussion about her on Weibo never happened. The storm had abated for no reason. Qin Muxuan rubbed her eyes, not daring to believe what she was seeing right now. She remembered very clearly how harsh the public comments on her had been before she was sent to hospital. Also, at that time, the comments on her personal page were too horrible to be seen. However, as Qin Muxuan checked her page now, she found even those comments had already disappeared.

She couldn’t help but wonder if she had a dream. However, those photos tainted with blood were real, so was the dead mouse. Then Qin Muxuan started to guess if Gu Zijin was the one who solved the problem for her.

Thinking of the words Gu Zijin had said to her in the hospital today, Qin Muxuan got a bit touched. What she didn’t know was that all had come to an end not only because of Gu Zijin’s effort. In fact, Yin Youting had also contributed to this. Although the Yin family wasn’t the leading figure in the business circle, this family had a very high status with a long history in City A. As a result, after Gu Zijin and the Yin family had joined hands together to deal with the affair this time, none of the media dared to spread the news about Qin Muxuan anymore. As for those paid posters, their accounts had all been banned.

Yan Yuxiao had already learned about what happened. The official accounts and the magazines which she bought over had already given her a refund. Turning off her phone, Yan Yuxiao flushed with anger. ‘Why could Qin Muxuan be protected so well by Zijin? She doesn’t deserve this!’ She thought. Seeing her being like this, Xiaohuan, her assistant, got a bit scared but still comforted Yan Yuxiao in a soft voice,

“Yuxiao, calm down. It’s no use getting so angry.”

Yan Yuxiao stood up and bit her lips, saying,

“Zijin is my childhood sweetheart. Qin Muxuan has ruined our relationship. She’s nothing! How dare she take away my Zijin?!”

Xiaohuan didn’t know what to say. She had worked for Yan Yuxiao for a long time and had a negative opinion on the latter long ago. However, Xiaohuan had never spoken her mind because Yan Yuxiao was her boss. As an assistant, she knew exactly which kind of words she was supposed to say, and which not.

Gu Zijin came out of the study and entered the bedroom. As he saw Qin Muxuan sitting by the window in a daze, he grabbed a blanket and walked over to put it on her body. Qin Muxuan then came back to her sense and said,

“Gu Zijin, I want to discuss something with you.”

Gu Zijin sat down in front of Qin Muxuan and turned around to look at the fine rain outside the window. Then, he noticed Qin Muxuan’s pale face and said in a tender voice,

“What is it? Speak it quickly, so you can get to bed early. Your fever was just gone.”

With a hesitant look crossing Qin Muxuan’s eyes, she still chose to speak,

“I want Xiaobai to quit the show business. I don’t want him to be attacked by others on the Internet like I was if he does something wrong one day.”
