No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Chapter 37: Dabai, Here Is Your Candy



Qin Muxuan was still wearing a weak look until they arrived at the Gu’s house. Gu Zijin watched her getting out of the car, with coldness flashing in his eyes. He kept thinking of the messages which had been sent to him by Lisa.

One of the messages said that Yin Youting and Qin Muxuan had been childhood sweethearts. Before Qin Family collapsed, they had been lovers.

Lovers… Gu Zijin ruminated that word over and over again. After he had calculated the time and recalled the things Qin Muxuan had revealed to him by chance, he drew a conclusion. The reason why Qin Muxuan broke up with Yin Youting was that she was pregnant with Qin Xiaobai five years ago.

It also meant that… they might get back together again.

When Mrs. Gu saw Qin Muxuan entering the house with a pale face, she asked worriedly,

“Muxuan, what happened to you? Nanny Chen told me that you had a fever. How do you feel right now?”

“I’m feeling much better. Thanks for your consideration, Mrs. Gu.”

“We don’t need any formality between us. Hand your medicine to Nanny Chen, she’ll boil it for you.”

Qin Muxuan looked at Ye Han gratefully, which made the latter’s heart ache in pity. ‘This child must feel so wronged now. She doesn’t even have a real family member to look after her when she’s sick.”

It was said that after Qin Family declared bankruptcy, Qin Muxuan’s family members either died or remarried, leaving her cleaning up the mess.

Qin Muxuan went upstairs to have a rest. As Mrs. Gu saw Gu Zijin walking into the room with a grim look, she complained that,

“How can you be like this? After Nanny Chen finishes boiling the medicine, you should bring it to Muxuan by yourself. She is a patient right now. I’m telling you this, do not act recklessly.”

“I know, mom.”

After Qin Xiaobai knew that Qin Muxuan was sick, his chubby face wrinkled right away. When he saw Nanny Chen boiling the medicine, he approached her at once. After that, he stood on tiptoe and said with light flashing in his two big eyes,

“Nanny Chen, I want to boil medicine for Dabai too…”

Nanny Chen couldn’t help but feel touched. She never realized that Qin Xiaobai would be that thoughtful. Still, she refused him tenderly,

“You are such a nice boy, Xiaobai, but just leave it to me. The only thing you need to do is doing your homework. Remember, don’t disturb Dabai.”

“Fine.”

Qin Xiaobai could only stand aside tamely while staring at Gu Zijin with anticipation in his eyes,

“Dad, can I bring Dabai the medicine?”

Gu Zijin, mouth twitched, saying,

“No.”

Qin Xiaobai, feeling aggrieved, fell onto the sofa with his ass uplifted and didn’t want to get up anymore. Mrs. Gu didn’t know how to react. Seeing Gu Zijing being jealous of a kid reminded her of the younger Master Gu.

Thinking of Gu Heng, Ye Han got a bit sad. Now this man was still lying in hospital and no one knew when he would wake up.

After Nanny Chen finished boiling the medicine, Gu Zijin took the medicine upstairs. Qin Xiaobai almost shed tears in grief, feeling himself being of no help at all. Then he looked at Mrs. Gu with a pitiful look,

“Grandma, dad is such a bad person. He didn’t even allow me to bring the medicine to mom.”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Ye Han was warmed by Qin Xiaobai’s look. Then she took Qin Xiaobai’s side instantly, saying,

“Don’t worry, I’ll criticize him for you afterwards.”

Qin Xiaobai jumped for joy right away with happiness in his eyes,

“Grandma, I know you are the best.”

Ye Han held Qin Xiaobai in her arms. Elderly Lady Gu happened to go downstairs at this moment. Seeing Qin Xiaobai snuggling up to Ye Han, Elderly Lady Gu also wanted to hug this boy. However, Qin Xiaobai turned his face away at the sight of Elderly Lady Gu.

Elderly Lady Gu was a bit hurt, but she still came closer to Xiaobai and tried to please him,

“Xiaobai, what kind of present do you want? I’ll buy you everything.”

“Nothing! Great grandma, you are a big bad wolf!’

Elderly Lady Gu almost had a heart attack when hearing her beloved great grandson’s words. After taking a deep breath, she asked,

“Xiaobai, did Qin Muxuan tell you that?”

Hearing that, Qin Xiaobai didn’t even want to look at her anymore. He put his arms around Ye Han’s neck, saying,

“Grandma, I don’t want to see great grandma. Can you take me away from here?”

Elderly Lady Gu was hit hard by those words again…

Upstairs.

Qin Muxuan lay down on the bed with cooling gel sheet on her forehead. Her fair and pretty face seemed a bit pale and haggard. Seeing Gu Zijin bringing the medicine into the room, she couldn’t help but bite her lips.

Gu Zijin sat by the bed to feed her the medicine. However, Qin Muxuan didn’t want to drink it at all, which vexed him again. ‘It’s been a long while since we were back. Is she still thinking of that man in the hospital? That Yin Youting?”

However, the words coming out of his mouth were quite soft,

“Drink it. You have to take care of yourself for Xiaobai.”

Qin Muxuan was moved by his words. ‘That’s right. I have Xiaobai now. It’s no use regretting over the things that happened five years ago. Also, I have already made up my mind, haven’t I?”

Qin Muxuan finally turned around obediently. Then Gu Zijin, having scooped a spoonful of medicine, blew the hot steam away and then fed Qin Muxuan the medicine. As she took the medicine one spoon after another, she watched his gentle moves, feeling her heart missing a beat. When they were in the hospital, he had acted like a tyrant. Now, she only felt herself drowning in his tenderness.

She didn’t know what had struck her, but she felt tears welling up in her eyes again. She also didn’t know why she was so upset after finding that Gu Zijin helped her get employed. She should be thankful to him, instead of feeling herself like a joke because of her pride.

Perhaps she did have been unreasonable.

Thinking of that, Qin Muxuan lowered her head and said with her eyelashes fluttering,

“Gu Zijin, I’m sorry for what happened in the morning. That man is my first boyfriend. But I can assure you that nothing would happen to him and me these two months. Also, I already made a clean break with him five years ago.”

Gu Zijin hummed gently with dim light flashing in his eyes. Even if she didn’t make a clean break with Yin Youting, Gu Zijin would make her do that.

He didn’t care if he was being possessive or controlled by his pride, but he just couldn’t stand seeing Qin Muxuan being with any other man!

The medicine was very bitter. Also, the added ginger slices made Qin Muxuan choke after she had finished half of the medicine. As Gu Zijin patted on her back, he saw Qin Muxuan’s face turning completely red due to her choke and her eyes filled with tears. He suddenly wanted to kiss on that delicate face.

Right at this moment, the sound of Qin Xiaobai’s heavy steps came through. The next second, the room door was pushed open.

Qin Xiaobai ran toward Qin Muxuan with a candy in his hand. As he arrived by the bed, he wriggled his body and tried to squeeze Gu Zijin away. However, Gu Zijin sat there steadily and Qin Xiaobai was not strong enough to push him away. So Qin Xiaobai could only climb onto the bed and opened his hand to show the White Rabbit Candy, saying,

“Dabai, here is the candy I have just found. Eat it, and then you wouldn’t have a bitter taste in your mouth.”

Gu Zijin frowned slightly, thinking, ‘Why didn’t I think of bringing a candy upstairs?’ Obviously Qin Xiaobai had cheered Qin Muxuan up. The latter said with a smile in her eyes,

“Thank you, Xiaobai.”
