No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

In the bright moonlight, the finger marks on his face were still very obvious. Qin Muxuan looked at the marks and couldn’t help but feel painful. He could have stood by and watched her being kicked out of Gu’s house, but he didn’t. Thinking of that, Qin Muxuan put her hand on Gu Zijin’s face unconsciously, which made the look in Gu Zijin’s eyes suddenly change. Then he heard Qin Muxuan saying,

“Gu Zijin, I’m sorry.”

“You don’t need to apologize.”

Qin Muxuan lowered her head. There were only a few days left before their two-month contract expired. She had witnessed how strongly determined Elderly Lady Gu was to drive her away. Even if she kept staying in the Gu Family, she couldn’t take good care of Xiaobai anymore and would only bring lots of troubles to this family. Thinking of that, Qin Muxuan tried to hide the pain in her heart and said gently,

“Gu Zijin, I’ll leave Gu’s house today. I won’t bother you anymore.”

Gu Zijin frowned and said,

“Do you know what you are saying now?”

“I do. I am glad that I could accompany Xiaobai for such a long period of time. Although it hasn’t been two months, I am already very satisfied. It’s not good for you or the Gu Family if I continue to stay here. So, Gu Zijin, it’s time to validate our contract.”

Gu Zijin was choked by Qin Muxuan’s words. He was the one that had written that contract. Now that she wanted to validate the contract in advance, he should be pleased with it. However, he only had a strange feeling deep inside and even heard the voice of Satan echoing inside his head, “Do not let Qin Muxuan go. Keep her by your side forever.”

Qin Muxuan, having taken back her hand, turned around and left. Then she stepped to the end of the hallway firmly. Gu Zijin tried to grab her hand but only caught the empty air. After a long while, he withdrew his hand and watched her leaving silently.

While Qin Muxuan was packing up her things in the house at midnight, Qin Xiaobai was still sleeping. Before Qin Muxuan left, she pushed open the door of Qin Xiaobai’s room gently. When she looked at Qin Xiaobai’s sleeping face, she couldn’t help getting sad with tears welling up in her eyes. At last, she closed the door resolutely and walked downstairs with her few pieces of luggage. Nanny Chen who had experienced a lot understood Qin Muxuan’s feeling naturally. Then she said,

“Miss Qin, Miss Yan has come over to tell Elderly Lady Gu about that thing. If it is not true, you can explain for yourself…”

Qin Muxuan shook her head bitterly. She didn’t know how to explain. It was true that she was hugged by Yin Youting. She was also a bit moved in the cafe during the daytime. How could such a clever man like Gu Zijin not know what had happened? Last time in the hospital, he only met Yin Youting once, but he had already dug out Yin Youting’s whole family background.

As the car was far away from the Gu’s house, Uncle Chen put Qin Muxuan down on the street. Qin Muxuan tried her best to put on a smile and said goodbye to Uncle Chen in the cold wind. Uncle Chen sighed and then exhorted Qin Muxuan to be careful with everything. Then he drove the car away.

After he had left, Qin Muxuan seemed to lose the courage to disguise herself anymore. She didn’t cry in front of Gu Zijin, nor did she shed tears when looking at Qin Xiaobai. That was because she had been in the hospital or the Gu’s house at that time. Now that she was in an empty square with nobody around, she finally didn’t need to cover her true feelings. After squatting down, she burst into tears right away. After a long while, she felt someone putting a coat on her body. She turned around in surprise and saw a pair of soulful eyes. It was Yin Youting…

Qin Muxuan wiped the tears on the corner of her eyes in a hurry and wanted to leave. However, Yin Youting held her hand tightly and said in a very sincere tone,

“You have to protect yourself, even for the sake of your kid. Now it’s in the dead of night, at least I can offer you a place to live.”

When she heard that, Qin Muxuan’s body went stiff. He was right. At midnight, she, a girl without any cash in her pocket, did have no place to go.

At last, Qin Muxuan agreed to go with Yin Youting. He helped Qin Muxuan settle in an apartment. After that, he presented her with a bowl of steaming noodles cooked by himself. Although Qin Muxuan was still very sad now, she ate all of the noodles in order to let him feel better. Seeing her being like this, Yin Youting felt his heart aching with pity. The girl whom he was willing to do anything to protect was bullied by others.

Yin Youting tried to hold Qin Muxuan’s hand. However, the latter dodged him quietly. Then Yin Youting could only say,

“I still have to work tomorrow. I’ll go back now. Take care of yourself.”

“OK.”

Seeing that she didn’t say a word to keep him here, Yin Youting felt as if his heart was pierced by her. Then, he closed the door lightly and left.

The next day when Qin Xiaobai walked downstairs, he saw Mrs. Gu coming back with red eyes. Gu Zijin who hadn’t slept for a whole night also entered the living room with a tired look on his face. Then Qin Xiaobai couldn’t help but ask,

“Daddy, grandma, where were you last night?”

“The hospital.”‘

Qin Xiaobai got dazed and asked right away,

“Does Dabai get sick again?”Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Mrs. Gu squatted down and rubbed Qin Xiaobai’s head, saying,

“No, it’s not Dabai. It’s your great grandma.”

Although Qin Xiaobai didn’t like Elderly Lady Gu because the latter didn’t like Qin Muxuan, he still got a bit worried when hearing that his great grandmother was ill. So he said,

“What happened to great grandma? Is she all right?”

“She’s fine. The doctor said that she would recover soon as long as she doesn’t get angry and rest well. Xiaobai, don’t forget to eat breakfast before you go to school. If your great grandma knows that you worry about her so much, she will be very glad.”

Qin Xiaobai nodded tamely. As he looked around and didn’t find Qin Muxuan, he said,

“Dabai must be sleeping now. I’ll wake her up and call her to eat breakfast.”

Before Qin Xiaobai took a step, Gu Zijin grabbed his hand right away with a meaningful look in his eyes. As Gu Zijin thought of the fact that Qin Muxuan had already left, he looked at Qin Xiaobai’s innocent face and said,

“She is not here, because she is still accompanying your great grandma in the hospital.”

Hearing that, Mrs. Gu intended to add something but finally stayed silent after she understood the hint of Gu Zijin. After Qin Xiaobai had left for school, Mrs. Gu learned from Gu Zijin that Qin Muxuan had already left last night. Then she couldn’t help criticizing him,

“Where could she go in the middle of the night? Last night I didn’t have the time to attend to her, why didn’t you stop her?”

“Mother, do you think grandma would let Qin Muxuan stay in our house after she wakes up? Last night you already showed clearly that you would side with grandma. Isn’t it too late for you to say these words?”

After saying that, Gu Zijin compressed his thin lips. The departure of Qin Muxuan made him a bit restless as if something was missing in his life. Although he wasn’t completely lost, he still felt very annoyed. Hearing his words, Mrs. Gu lowered her head, feeling a bit guilty. If Elderly Lady Gu still strongly asked Qin Muxuan to leave after she woke up, Mrs. Gu admitted that she was quite likely to support the old lady.
