No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Chapter 21: Vegetable Porridge



Hearing that, Gu Zijin felt speechless. Couldn’t she spend more money on medicine for him?

“Don’t return the rest.”

“Why?”

Gu Zijin stood up and put this bag of medicine into the cabinet.

“In case of the next stomachache, I will store the medicine.”

Qin Muxuan secretly thought, ‘Is all the medicine suitable for you?’

She remembered what she bought was for different symptoms.

But seeing Gu Zijin’s pale face, Qin Muxuan didn’t say those words. She told herself, ‘Don’t get angry. He is a patient now. He is a patient.’

“Remember to take your medicine. I will go to work.”

Qin Muxuan turned around and left the office room without any hesitation. At that moment Lisa took the document to the office and brushed past Qin.

Seeing Gu Zijin take a glass of water and take medicine with a disappointed expression, Lisa rubbed her eyes and felt unbelievable.

So rare! Their president could have a disappointed face…

Qin Muxuan came to her office and Chu Feng had gone to communicate with engineers.

Qin Muxuan saw a box of chocolate on her office table. Without a second thought, she knew it must be from Chu Feng.

She was a newcomer in Gu’s Group. Except Chu Feng, she didn’t know anyone else.

But why did Chu Feng always give her something like an umbrella or a box of chocolate?

Qin Muxuan didn’t open it and put it aside.

Because she wanted to get all things done as soon as possible, she prepared to work overtime. When Chu Feng came back to pack up his things and get off work, he saw Qin Muxuan didn’t plan to leave. He was surprised.

“Won’t you go back home?”

“I still have some work to do, so Chu Feng, you can go first.”

“OK. By the way, please taste the chocolate I gave you. This is taken from D Country by my aunty. I don’t like sweet food, so I send it to you.”

Oh, this was the reason. Qin Muxuan felt a sense of relief. If Chu Feng had a crush on her, she didn’t know how to refuse.

“Thank you.”

8:00pm, in the President’s Office.

A call from home asked him to go back. Gu Zijin just said some words and hung up the phone. Then he went downstairs.

In the bright light, Qin Muxuan carefully wrote the details of the cooperation proposal, with conscientiousness in her eyes.

Gu Zijin saw Qin’s behavior and didn’t go to bother her. He just stood against the door frame and looked at her silently.

When Qin Muxuan finished, she felt a pain in her neck and back and stretched herself. She felt uneasy when seeing Gu Zijin standing at the door.

“Why…why are you here?”

Seeing his gesture, she thought he had been standing for a while. Gu Zijin didn’t feel uncomfortable, and he went toward Qin and closed the cooperation proposal,

“Almost finished. Let’s go home.”

“Wait a moment.”

Qin Muxuan took the chocolate out of the drawer and put it in her handbag. Gu Zijin stared at the chocolate for a while.

“Where did you get it?”

“Oh, Chu Feng gave it to me, and I want to take it to Xiaobai.”

“Chu Feng?”

Gu Zijin raised his eyebrows. He remembered that the man was appointed to connect with Qin Muxuan and that they had met in the parking lot.

Just a white collar. Even though he sent gifts or behaved nicely to Qin Muxuan, there was no comparability between Gu and Chu. Moreover, anyone smart would find he was much better than Chu Feng.

Gu Zijin thought about that, but was still unpleasant because of the chocolate. When they were driving home, it was already 9:00pm. Qin Muxuan had been busy all day, and she was really sleepy sitting on the back seat.

When they arrived home, Gu Zijin saw she was asleep through the rearview mirror. She closed her eyes, quiet and elegant.

Gu Zijin got off the car slowly, and then he went to the back seat and carried her in his arms. Qin Muxuan’s head leaned against his shoulder, and she was enjoying a sound sleep.

Qin Xiaobai was coaxed to sleep tight upstairs by Mrs. Gu. Gu Zijin took Qin Muxuan upstairs and didn’t go to Qin Muxuan’s original room but went to his room directly.

Midnight.

Qin Muxuan woke up at night hungry. She tried to find something to eat with her eyes half-closed. When turning on the light, she found the room was large and in a simple style. Moreover, all the furniture was black and white. What made her more surprised was that Gu Zijin was sleeping beside her!

The dazzling light made the man aside frown. He opened his eyes and saw Qin Muxuan sit up. Then he asked,

“Are you awake?”

“Gu Zijin! Where am I?”

“My room.”

Gu Zijin sat up. Qin Muxuan felt his masculine smell approaching her, and immediately got out of the bed. Gu Zijin was displeased when seeing her bare ankles.

“Wear your shoes.”

“Why didn’t you send me to my original room?”

“Xiaobai was asleep, and I didn’t want to wake him up. What’s more, my mother was there to accompany him.”

Qin Muxuan was a little unhappy. Even so, he couldn’t take her to his bed directly. Moreover, this man slept naked!

“Goo-”

A sound came from Qin’s stomach. Qin Muxuan felt embarrassed. Gu Zijin smiled.

“Are you hungry?”

Qin Muxuan nodded. She was really hungry. Because of the proposal, she didn’t have lunch or dinner.

Gu Zijin stood up, with only a black underwear on his body. Qin Muxuan turned her face around. ‘No one would sleep just wearing an underwear!’

However, Gu Zijin didn’t feel her uneasiness, and put on the black silk pajamas naturally in front of her. Then he looked at Qin Muxuan:

“Let’s go.”

“Where?”

“Aren’t you hungry?”

“…”

Qin Muxuan had no choice but to follow Gu Zijin. After opening the bright chandelier in the living room, Gu Zijin entered the kitchen.

In the refrigerator, all kinds of vegetables and meat were available. Gu Zijin had a look and said,

“What do you want to eat?”

Qin Muxuan blurted that she wanted vegetable porridge, because she was good at cooking it and Xiaobai liked it, too.

She saw Gu Zijin take the vegetable out and put the millet into water, which showed that he wanted to cook himself. Qin Muxuan said,

“Let me do that…”Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

“That’s ok. You can wait for me outside.”

“OK…”

Qin Muxuan skeptically went out of the kitchen, and worried about what she should do if he blew up the kitchen. He was a high-fed person. How could it be possible that he could cook?

Half an hour later, Qin Muxuan was proved to be wrong. Gu Zijin took two bowls of vegetable porridge, with perfect color, aroma and taste. The poached eggs were even soft-boiled.

Qin Muxuan immediately had a good appetite. She took up her chopsticks, lowered her head and had a taste.

“Gu Zijin, the porridge you made is great.”

Qin Muxuan could not help praising him, and didn’t notice that she called his name, not President Gu.

Gu Zijin felt happy. It was rare that she called his full name without anger.
