No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Lisa realized that Gu Zijin truly had fallen in love with Qin Muxuan, otherwise he wouldn’t have gone through a lot of trouble to pave the way for her.

After Lisa walked out of the office, Gu Zijin called his lawyer at once in a cold voice,

“Go to the Gu’s house, tell my grandma exactly what I have told you to say.”

The lawyer couldn’t help but ask,

“President Gu, are we really going to do that?”

“Yes.”

Gu Zijin hung up the phone with a gloomy look. If he still did nothing this time, his grandma might never stop hurting Qin Muxuan. Before, he had thought that his grandma was just not fond of Qin Muxuan. Now he finally realized that that old lady would do anything to drive Qin Muxuan away and didn’t even mind that his father would be harmed. That was something he would never tolerate.

In the Gu’s house.

It was rainy today. A man in black walked into the house. The moment Elderly Lady Gu saw He Cheng’s face, the look on her face changed right away. That man was the family lawyer of the Gu’s and wouldn’t show up unless something serious had happened. Thus she couldn’t help but get a bad feeling. He Cheng said politely,

“Elderly Lady Gu, can we have a conversation upstairs?”

“Fine.”

After they both entered the study, He Cheng took out some documents while speaking frankly,

“Elderly Lady Gu, these are the documents President Gu has found lately. They could prove that Miss Yan has harmed Master Gu.”

With Elderly Lady Gu’s hand slightly trembling on the walking stick, she said in a cold voice,

“Did Zijin tell you to sue me?!”

“That’s exactly what President Gu wants. Elderly Lady Gu, I hope you can cooperate with us. We’d better solve this privately. As for Miss Yan, President Gu would give her the punishment she deserves.”

Elderly Lady Gu, with an angry look in her eyes, thumped the ground with her walking stick and said,

“Even if Gu Heng wakes up right now, he won’t put me in prison!”

“Elderly Lady Gu, President Gu also wants to smooth things over, so this time I’ve come here to tell you the things he wants in exchange. It’s about Miss Qin…”Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

…

It was still raining. Gu Zijin looked at the scenery outside the window with coldness in his eyes. He would never hurt his grandmother since he owed a great debt of gratitude to that woman who had given her love and care as well as instructions of life to him.

However, if his grandma didn’t stop doing those things, Qin Muxuan would be harmed again. After Qin Muxuan had been bullied on the Internet, she became more sensitive than before. So Gu Zijin would never let her be injured again.

At eleven o’clock.

Gu Zijin had just arrived home after work. When he parked the car outside the Gu’s house, he saw the light was still on in the living room. Gu Zijin, with the look on his face changed slightly, pushed the door open. Then he saw Qin Muxuan lying on the sofa with her fair face stained with black print and her long hair hanging down loosely behind her back. She had already fallen asleep. On the table was the first draft of her design.

Gu Zijin showed a tender look and collected the drawings while checking them for her. After that, he bent over to hold her up and then walked upstairs. Qin Muxuan was awaked from her dream when being held up by him. Then she stared at the cold and handsome face in front of her in a daze, saying,

“When did you come back?”

“Just now.”‘

“Oh, I prepared vegetable porridge for you. Would you like some?”

“I’ve already eaten when I was in the company. Next time if I don’t come back, you don’t need to wait for me.

Qin Muxuan uttered ‘Oh’ in a low voice. Then, she was brought to the bedroom and put on the bed by Gu Zijin. As she remembered his strange behaviors lately, she couldn’t help but glance at the expression on his face. Meanwhile, he rubbed Qin Muxuan’s head and said in a helpless tone,

“After you finish your drawing, you should show it to me first. It’s better to submit your entry after I feel there’s nothing wrong with it.”

“All right.”

Qin Muxuan agreed without any hesitation because she believed that Gu Zijin had a wider range of knowledge than she did.

After half a month, Qin Muxuan confirmed her work over and over again and then submitted it at last. This was the first time her work would be displayed in front of so many people. She was not sure if others would appreciate her design.

After all, the drawings she had made before were all customer-oriented, but this time the public would be the real judges of her work.

Qin Muxuan took a breath gently while sitting at the back stage with other attenders quietly. If she could win an award this time, she would make enormous strides in the career she loved. Even thinking of that would make her excited.

“So, is this the first time you take place in a contest like this?”

Hearing the soft voice behind her, Qin Muxuan turned around and found the person who had asked that question gingerly was a girl in black-frame glasses with a ponytail. Qin Muxuan then replied bashfully,

“Yes.”

“I’m a college student in my second year. My family has taken great pains to get me the chance of participating in this contest. I am a bit anxious right now. Can you show me your drawing? By the way, my name is Chu Yiyi.”

According to the rules, all the entries should stay confidential to either the judges or the other attenders. Nonetheless, all the works had already been submitted and Qin Muxuan assumed that nothing would go amiss. As Qin Muxuan saw the pitiful look of Chu Yiyi, she got softhearted and showed Chu Yiyi the copy of her design.

Chu Yiyi took a look at it and then her eyes sparkled,

“Your design is marvelous with delicate conception and very practical. How did you come up with the idea of using curve surface here?”

Chu Yiyi pointed at the long corridor and asked. Hearing that, Qin Muxuan explained to her readily. In the meantime, Chu Yiyi took out her phone secretly while talking with Qin Muxuan smilingly.

Since it was an international contest, the attenders had all been through rounds of selection to get to the final match. As time went by, Qin Muxuan couldn’t help but get nervous with her palm breaking out in a cold sweat.

She had wanted to ask someone to come with her. Gu Zijin was too busy a man whom she felt reluctant to bother. Therefore, after she had pondered for a long time, she asked Mu Mu to go with her. However, that girl had gone to buy ice-cream in a popular shop and Qin Muxuan didn’t know if Mu Mu had already left the shop yet.

“Number three, number sixteen and number four, please come on the stage to express your creative conception.”

Qin Muxuan was number sixteen. In the meantime, Chu Yiyi stood up and said joyfully when she saw Qin Muxuan standing up at the same time,

“We are both selected for the next round.”

After the three attenders walked out of the waiting room, they saw the red carpet on the luxurious floor and the microphones in front of them. A row of judges were sitting offstage, who were either extremely knowledgeable or wealthy.

Qin Muxuan didn’t expect to see Gu Zijin there but she took a glance at the audience anyway. When she didn’t find him, she still felt a bit disappointed.

Chu Yiyi had seemed quite nervous backstage, but right now she answered the judges’ questions fluently, which surprised Qin Muxuan a bit. In no time, it was Qin Muxuan’s turn to answer the question. She took a breath gently and stepped forward. Before she spoke, someone asked her a tough question,

“All the attenders either graduated from the famous universities or already made great achievements. Miss Qin, do you think you deserve to enter the contest and be in the top three places? Is there any inside story?”
