No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Chapter 144: Taking Advantage of Xiaobai



However, no one cared.

Yan Yuxiao again appeared in the top trending search with Qin Xiaobai. She had used Qin Xiaobai’s injury as the stunt to highlight herself or posed a tricky question to make everyone choose Qin Xiaobai’s mother from Qin Muxuan and her.

It was a mess.

Reading those comments, Qin Muxuan felt annoyed. She dropped her phone decisively. There was a vending machine outside. Qin Muxuan needed a bottle of coffee to refresh herself, so she walked out.

There was not a paparazzo wandering outside. The corridor was empty and eerily quiet.

Those paparazzi might take abundant pictures and hurry back for writing their articles.

As for Yan Yuxiao, she might have a rest after such a ‘good’ performance.

How could Yan Yuxiao really care about Qin Xiaobai? It was exhausting for her to pretend to be sincere.

Qin Muxuan smiled bitterly. A terrible idea came up.

‘Is Xiaobai… taken advantage of?’

‘All these are fake. Yan Yuxiao is a professional actress. She acts like a kind-hearted celebrity, a woman who cares about Xiaobai and a responsible person.’

‘At the same time, Yan Yuxiao is successfully posing to be a victim.’

‘It was a joke to send snakes into the houses of those holdouts. She worries about Xiaobai, which burnishes her image. She is willing to make up to the Gu Group, which shows that she is responsible.’

‘Then, does this professional actress play another role?’

‘The role… as a murderer?’

Qin Muxuan was terrified by her speculation. ‘None of the cast has the reason to hurt Xiaobai except for Yan Yuxiao.’

‘No one needs to burnish himself/herself after Xiaobai got injured except for Yan Yuxiao.’

‘Everyone now knows that the fake dagger has been changed into a real one. No one wants to be regarded as the suspect. They all lie low, while Yan Yuxiao stays high-profile. It seems that someone has set this thing up.’

‘Yan Yuxiao has gotten stuck in the snake scandal, so she changed the dagger and hurt Qin Xiaobai. She then portrayed herself as a delicate and soft woman by using Qin Xiaobai and Gu Zijin. She hired paid posters to whitewash herself and regained the good impression from the public…’

‘If my speculation is right…’

Qin Muxuan was petrified by her own thoughts. Walking back to the ward subconsciously, she saw Qin Xiaobai who was reading a comic book. She felt relieved.

She was even worried that Yan Yuxiao might come here to harm Xiaobai. After all, Yan Yuxiao had done something terrible.

“Dabai, what’s wrong with you? You look pale! Are you tired? Do you want to sleep?”

Qin Xiaobai put down the comic book, gazing at Qin Muxuan’s face nervously.

‘They are all my ridiculous thoughts!’ Qin Muxuan shook her head, leaving those horrible thoughts behind.

“No, babe. I’m not tired or sleepy. It’s just work.” Qin Muxuan immediately regained her composure because she didn’t want to upset Qin Xiaobai.

“Mommy, what did you do just now?”

“Well,” Qin Muxuan halted, “I went out for coffee.”

“Where’s coffee?”

‘God! I forgot it!’

“Dabai, you’ve obviously got something on your mind! You can’t hide it from me!”NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

Qin Xiaobai let out a sigh.

“Are you worried about me? Or something happened?”

Qin Muxuan wouldn’t tell Qin Xiaobai her real thoughts. Adults’ world was full of calculation and filth. She didn’t want Qin Xiaobai to get involved that early.

“Nothing. I just felt anxious when you were alone. The vending machine is far from here, so I came back.”

Qin Xiaobai believed her explanation. He was then relieved.

“I see. I can go with you! If you take me, you won’t be anxious.”

“No, you are hurt.” Qin Muxuan categorically refused.

“My hand hurts, not my feet! I walked to the hospital by myself! Mommy, I’m so bored. There’s no paparazzo and reporter now. Can I have a walk, please?”

Qin Xiaobai was bored to death. He slept through the daytime and couldn’t fall asleep at night. With one hand, he was unable to write or paint. Also, he was getting sick of the comic book.

He longed for a leisurely walk.

However, Qin Muxuan flatly rejected him.

“No, you’re hurt. If your suture ruptures, it will be hard to recover. I will take you out when you get better.”

Qin Xiaobai showed a disappointed look, staring at her. He was acting cute!

Qin Muxuan forced herself not to look at him, trying not to be swayed.

“Okay, I give up.” Qin Xiaobai surrendered. “Dabai, if you buy yourself a coffee, please bring me a burger. The nutrimeal made by Nanny Chen tasted yucky. I barely swallowed it down.”

Qin Muxuan was amused. “I saw you eat it up. If you want to have a burger, just admit it. But I won’t agree. It’s too late. You can’t eat fatty food. I will buy one tomorrow.”

Raising his unhurt hand, Qin Xiaobai was rolling around screaming.

He looked adorable.

However, Qin Muxuan got used to this cute little thing. She needed a coffee to alleviate her headache, so she ordered food delivery and asked the deliveryman to take a bottle of milk which could help Qin Xiaobai fall asleep.

In the Gu’s house, Elderly Lady Gu snapped.

“Zijin, what’s wrong with Xiaobai? I heard that the dagger has been changed! Who dared to hurt my lovely great-grandson?”

Elderly Lady Gu was furious. Even her blood pressure increased because of wrath. She was waiting for the news of Xiaobai.

“Granny, don’t worry. It’s a rumor. Everything is under investigation. We don’t know whether it was an accident or someone did this on purpose. If someone set this up, he’s going to pay! No one can hurt my son!”

Elderly Lady Gu knew that Gu Zijin was a man of his word, and he would figure out the truth. When she thought of that, her blood pressure decreased slowly. She kept reprimanding the crew and those who might harm Qin Xiaobai. However, she was still furious, so she vented her anger on Qin Muxuan.

“I have told you that Qin Muxuan’s unable to be Xiaobai’s mother! Xiaobai’s too young to be an actor. She does this for money! Will a mother do this?”

Gu Zijing rubbed his temples.

He had quarrels with Elderly Lady Gu for Qin Muxuan, but Elderly Lady Gu kept demonizing Qin Muxuan regardless of his feeling.

“Granny, don’t get her wrong. Muxuan didn’t want Xiaobai to enter the entertainment industry. It was me that thought the child of the Gu family needed practice, so I asked him to do so.”

“You’ve been defending her all the time!” Elderly Lady Gu sneered. “I’m way older than you. Such a woman must be up to something. With a child, she aims to become your wife, so she performs well and enchants you. I can tell her true purpose.”

Gu Zijin was at his wits’ end. Elderly Lady Gu was so stubborn that he didn’t know what to do.

“Granny, don’t worry. I won’t be easily enchanted.”
