No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

When the aunt came out of the guest room, she saw Qin Muxuan and Jian Xi smiling and teasing with each other. She suddenly felt that Qin Muxuan was more lively.

When Qin Muxuan saw that the aunty came out, she restrained herself slightly, “Aunty, are you done cleaning?”

The aunt smiled and nodded. “Yes. Madam, please go in and take a look. Call me if you need anything.”

Qin Muxuan smiled and nodded. “Okay, thank you, Aunty.”

When she saw that Qin Muxuan was being so polite to her, the aunt’s impression of her got even better. “Madam, it’s my pleasure. Just tell me if there’s anything you need. This is your friend, right?” As she said that, she smiled towards Jian Xi.

Jian Xi also smiled back politely.

“Yes, she will stay here for the night. I’m sorry to trouble you but please prepare breakfast for her tomorrow morning too,” Qin Muxuan said politely.

The aunt hurriedly waved her hand, “It’s no trouble at all. The more people there are, the livelier this place is. It used to be very quiet here. Only after you and Xiaoxin came here, did this place become more like a home. As you know, Master tends to be cold to other people, and he is busy with work, so he isn’t home very often. So is Xiaobai. He becomes an actor at such a young age, and he is very busy every day.”

Now that she knew that Qin Muxuan was good-tempered, the aunty got a little more courageous and said what she was in her mind directly.

Qin Muxuan was a little surprised, “So except Gu Zijin and Xiaobai, no one else has ever lived here?”

She thought that Gu Zijin and Yan Yuxiao were married. Even if they were just pretending, Elderly Lady Gu would make them two live together.

The aunt shook her head. “That’s right. It was the first time that Master brought other people to this villa.”

Qin Muxuan was slightly stunned. In fact, she was doubtful about what Ye Han had said to her earlier. She was afraid that she was saying that for the sake of her son, but now that she heard what the Aunty said, she basically believed it. It seemed that she had really misunderstood Gu Zijin.

As if she were afraid that Qin Muxuan wouldn’t believe her, the aunt continued, “Speaking of which, there was a woman who came to the villa to look for Master, but he didn’t even let her in. After he said something to her at the door with a cold face, the woman almost cried. Ever since then, she never came here.”

The Aunty didn’t know much about celebrities, and Gu Zijin never talked about his family affairs, so she didn’t know if that woman was Yan Yuxiao.

Qin Muxuan thought that the woman must’ve been Yan Yuxiao. It seemed that Gu Zijin was really heartless to her, which made Qin Muxuan feel good.

Seeing that Qin Muxuan looked much better, the Aunty let out a sigh of relief. She thought she had said something wrong.

“Madam, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go downstairs first.”

Qin Muxuan nodded slightly. “Okay. Go ahead.”

Seeing that the Aunty had left, Jian Xi nudged Qin Muxuan, who was still in a daze.

Qin Muxuan cast a questioning look at her.

Jian Xi raised an eyebrow, “You’re quite used to being the Mistress of the House.”

Qin Muxuan felt embarrassed, so she patted Jian Xi’s arm angrily, “Don’t overthink it. I just don’t want to correct her every time.”

When she said that, Qin Muxuan couldn’t even convince herself. She always felt like it was just an excuse she found for herself.

Jian Xi shrugged. Obviously she didn’t believe that too.

Without further ado, Qin Muxuan pushed Jian Xi into the room and closed the door, “Alright, now that you’ve fallen into my hands today, you won’t be able to escape. I must pry open your mouth and make you tell me what in the world had happened!”

Jian Xi glanced at the tightly shut door and started to joke with Qin Muxuan, “Are you going to get me to confess by torturing me? We’re living in a law-based society, you know!”

Qin Muxuan raised her fist and said fiercely, “Since you’ve already gotten into the den of thieves, you can’t expect that you’d get away so easily, right?”

Jian Xi feigned fear as she patted her chest, but she was smiling, “Ah, I’m so scared!”

Qin Muxuan’s patience was running thin, so she threw Jian Xi onto the bed and pretended to strangle her. “Even now, you’re still joking with me. Tell me now, or I’ll strangle you!”

After a while, Jian Xi begged for mercy, “Okay, okay, I’ll say it. I’ll say it!”

Qin Muxuan pouted, loosened her hand and stood up. “That’s more like it. Spit it all out! I was so curious that I didn’t sleep well all these days!”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Jian Xi sat upright but she was still murmuring something which Qin Muxuan couldn’t hear.

Qin Muxuan raised her fist again.

Jian Xi knew that Qin Muxuan would really be angry if she kept stalling, so she blurted out as if she were afraid that she would chicken out, “It’s nothing. Mu Ming and I slept.”

Qin Muxuan’s eyes widened in an instant. She wondered if there was something wrong with her ears, “What did you say?!”

Jian Xi felt discouraged at once. Thinking that things couldn’t get any worse, she hung her shoulders and repeated what she had just said, “I said that Mu Ming and I slept.”

Qin Muxuan swallowed her saliva. “So you went to see him today?”

Jian Xi nodded. “Yes, I turned off my phone for the past few days. And when he called me, I didn’t answer them. I don’t know how he found out that you’d be back to the set today, so he came to see me directly.”

Qin Muxuan struggled to digest all the information she was receiving right now. “What did you talk about today?”

Jian Xi smiled and Qin Muxuan felt a trace of bitterness in her smile. “What else can I say? He wants to take responsibility for me but I don’t want to.”

Qin Muxuan felt she couldn’t contain her curiosity any longer. “Can I ask how the two of you ended up sleeping together?”

Jian Xi blushed slightly and said vaguely, “Uh, both of us were drunk; then we …” As she spoke, her voice became fainter and fainter.

Qin Muxuan fell silent. She really didn’t know what to say. Jian Xi had no desire to speak either and the room fell into silence.

“You know that Mu Ming likes you, right?” Qin Muxuan broke the silence first.

Jian Xi didn’t answer immediately. Moments later, she nodded. “Yeah.”

Qin Muxuan frowned and asked, “Then what do you feel about him? Do you like him or do you hate him?”

Jian Xi drew her brows even tighter together than Qin Muxuan did. And her originally pretty, little face was completely crumpled. “Can I only choose between “like” and “hate”? Can’t I choose both of them?”

Qin Muxuan was speechless.

Jian Xi nudged Qin Muxuan with her shoulder, “What do you think I should do? Come up with an idea for me.”

Qin Muxuan looked at Jian Xi in total disbelief. “This is the first time you asked me to come up with an idea for you. You’ve always been a very capable woman and a very independent one.”

Jian Xi rolled her eyes at Qin Muxuan, “Come on, this is something I’ve never handled before.”

Qin Muxuan looked serious again. And she thought for a moment, “Actually, I think you can try going out with him. He’s had a crush on you for a long time.”

Jian Xi still looked unsatisfied, “But after what happened, I’m afraid..”

“You’re afraid that he’ll think that you agree to go out with him not because you want to but because you have to?” Qin Muxuan said for Jian Xi.

Jian Xi nodded and she didn’t speak again.

Qin Muxuan held Jian Xi’s shoulder and said, “You like him a little, right? Otherwise, why would you worry about that?”

Jian Xi didn’t reply. In fact, she was a little confused. She couldn’t say that she liked him but she couldn’t say she disliked him either.

Qin Muxuan patted Jian Xi’s shoulder consolingly, “Even if you only like him a little, you can still give it a shot.”

Jian Xi was silent for a moment before nodding. “I got it.”

Looking at Jian Xi’s expression, Qin Muxuan knew that she had made a decision, so she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
