No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Chapter 240: Qin Muxuan’s Suitor



Sitting on a sofa in Gu Zijin’s office, Qin Xiaobai dangled his legs and waited for his father to finish work.

A cracking sound came up. The door was flung open.

“Mr. Gu, should I refuse Mr. Li’s request for cooperation?” Lisa followed Gu Zijin into the office.

As soon as the man stepped in, he saw his son was waiting for him on the sofa.

“Daddy!” Qin Xiaobai jumped onto the ground when he saw Gu Zijin. The child rushed over with his short little legs.

“Why didn’t you go back home?” Meeting Qin Xiaobai, Gu Zijin softened his straight face.

Lisa stood aside, thinking, ‘Xiaobai looks like Mr. Gu.’

“Daddy, I have something to tell you.”

Noticing Qin Xiaobai peeped at Lisa, Gu Zijin ordered, “Refuse him. We are not so washed-up that we have to cooperate with a flip-flopper.” After the Yan family made a scene here last time, the loss caused by slumping share prices was beyond retrieve although Gu Zijin had asked Lisa to make a statement.

At that time, plenty of partners had taken advantage of the occasion and terminated contracts with the Gu Group, including the Li Group. The mess was settled now. In addition, Yan Yuxiao and Gu Zijin were on the top trending search. Thanks to those, share prices of the Gu Group increased gradually. Those partners who abandoned the company were back and sought for cooperation with Gu Zijin again.

The project leader from the Li Group was different from others. He directly came to Gu Zijin and asked for cooperation, which was nerve-wracking.

“Got it, Mr. Gu.” After saying that, Lisa stepped out with documents in her hands. She left ample room for the father and son.

After Lisa left, Gu Zijin held Qin Xiaobai up. He sat on the sofa with his son in his arms.

“What’s wrong?”

“Something about Dabai.” Qin Xiaobai nodded with a somber face.

Hearing that, Gu Zijin looked taut.

“Yan Yuxiao said she would tell me Dabai’s whereabouts today, so I followed her.” Mentioning that, Qin Xiaobai felt guilty because he made his father worried.

Noticing Qin Xiaobai’s remorse, Gu Zijin stroked the kid’s head and said gently, “I’m not blaming you. Please call me if this happens again.”

“I will! Next time, I will call daddy first.” Nodding repeatedly, Qin Xiaobai continued, “That woman lied to me. She took me to a restaurant and refused to talk of Dabai, but she spilled the beans. She said she met Dabai two days ago.”

Qin Xiaobai told Gu Zijin everything that had happened today.

“Daddy, I guess Dabai might not be in City A.”

Hearing Qin Xiaobai’s words, Gu Zijin scowled. Lisa had said that Qin Muxuan might not in City A. ‘Yan Yuxiao met Qin Muxuan.’ Thought Gu Zijin. ‘How can I forget Yan Yuxiao?’

Taking out his phone, Gu Zijin called Lisa. “Tell someone to keep an eye on Qin Yuxiao. Call me at once if there’s something weird.”

“Daddy, we might find Dabai if we follow that woman.” Qin Xiaobai’s eyes sparkled. He put his arms around Gu Zijin’s arm.

“That’s what I need. Thank you, Xiaobai.” Gu Zijin put away his phone after he ended the call. The father tightly held the kid in his arms.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Daddy, I miss Dabai a lot.” Qin Xiaobai’s eyes dimmed. He buried his head in Gu Zijin’s arms, muttering.

Gu Zijin slightly rubbed Qin Xiaobai’s hair, ‘It seems to be the first time that Xiaobai has been away from his mom for so long.’

“Don’t worry, Xiaobai. I’ll find your mom as soon as possible.”

Gu Zijin didn’t remember how many times he had repeated this sentence these days. However, he had no choice but to comfort his son.

The man even considered kidnapping Yan Yuxiao in order to threaten Elderly Lady Gu. However, he was afraid that she would hurt Qin Muxuan if he pushed the old lady too far.

Raising his head, Qin Xiaobai stared at Gu Zijin. ‘Daddy must be exhausted.’ Gu Zijin seemed frazzled with dark circles under his eyes. He pined away dreadfully.

Qin Xiaobai found his father had loads of documents to handle, so he left with Li Cheng. He was unwilling to bother Gu Zijin.

After the child left, Gu Zijin sat at the table and scanned files. After a while, he threw those papers onto the table, frowning. Qin Muxuan had occupied his mind.

News that Yan Yuxiao and Gu Zijin would have a wedding ceremony was spreading. Yan Yuxiao had posted the marriage licenses on Weibo.

Gu Zijin couldn’t stop his grandmother. What he could do was to beg for the God’s mercy. He hoped Qin Muxuan wouldn’t read the news.

Lighting a cigarette, Gu Zijin held it between his thin lips. A puff of gray smoke slowly rose. He took a deep draw on the cigarette, trying to calm down.

The phone on the table started ringing.

It was a call from a stranger. Gu Zijin hesitated for a while and answered it.

“Hello.”

“Hello, Mr. Gu. This is Qin Feng.”

‘Qin Feng? Qin Muxuan’s boss?’

“What’s wrong?”

“Qin Muxuan has been absent for days. I can’t get in touch with her, so I call you.” Qin Feng had known the news about Gu Zijin and Yan Yuxiao. He was worried about Qin Muxuan for she hadn’t answered his call. Hence, he contacted Gu Zijin.

“She has some private issues to deal with, so she has been abroad these days. She left in a hurry. It seems that she didn’t have the time to inform you. No worries.”

Gu Zijin rubbed his forehead, ‘The mess has overwhelmed me. I even forgot to inform Qin Feng that Qin Muxuan should take a few days off.’

“I just want to make sure she’s all right. May I ask whether you married Ms. Yan or not?” A glimmer of hope sparkled in Qin Feng’s eyes when he asked, ‘If it’s real, I will get a chance.’

“Mind your own business. If there’s nothing else, I will say goodbye.” Gu Zijin responded coldly.

Before Qin Feng could answer, Gu Zijin hung up. ‘My little woman has many suitors.’ Thought Gu Zijin helplessly.
