No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

That was Yan Yuxiao’s plan. Before she got what she wanted, everyone could be used by her.

…

When Qin Xiaobai woke up, he found there was still a light on in his room. The warm yellow light filled the room, making the boy able to see his surroundings.

The moment he woke up, his stomach started rumbling.

He rubbed his belly and murmured, “I am so hungry…”

He went off the bed and tried to find something to eat in the kitchen. However, the door was suddenly opened by someone.

Qin Muxuan walked into the room with a bowl of porridge in her hand. Then she happened to see Qin Xiaobai standing there.

The next second, Qin Xiaobai turned around and slipped into his quilt.

Qin Muxuan sighed slightly and put the porridge on the bedside table. After that, she poked the bump on the bed and said gently, “Xiaobai, you must be hungry now. Come eat something.”

Qin Muxuan waited by the bedside for a long while patiently. Finally, the boy poked his little head out of the quilt. Seeing that, she gave a smile and said, “Have the porridge now, I’ve made your favorite chicken porridge.”

Qin Xiaobai’s eyes sparkled and he took the bowl from Qin Muxuan immediately. Perhaps the boy truly was starving. After a short while, the bowl was empty.

Seeing that, Qin Muxuan asked, “Do you want some more?”

After Qin Xiaobai nodded in silence, Qin Muxuan refilled the bowl in the kitchen. However, on the way back to Qin Xiaobai’s room, she was stopped by Gu Zijin.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Gu Zijin saw the confused look in Qin Muxuan’s eyes and took the bowl from her, saying in a low voice, “I’ll talk with Xiaobai, you can go have a rest now.”

Then, he put his index finger on her lips to stop her from speaking.

“I need to have a conversation with him, as his father.”

Qin Muxuan pondered for a short while and nodded. After that, she watched Gu Zijin walking into Xiaobai’s room.

“Xiaobai.”

As Gu Zijin turned on the light, the whole room was lit up. Then he handed the bowl to Qin Xiaobai and said tenderly,

“I know what happened today.”

Qin Xiaobai had the porridge without saying anything. When he heard Gu Zijin telling him to open Weibo, he, though a bit confused, still did as told to.

At the moment, the verbal fight on Weibo had already turned to personal insults toward Qin Muxuan. Some anti-fans of her even spoke ill of her under Qin Xiaobai’s personal page. The people on the Internet had been divided into two groups, one group abusing her while the other group defending her.

The fight even became the second trending topic.

Gu Zijin knew about this long ago, but before he ordered someone to block that topic, he needed Xiaobai to see it.

After Qin Xiaobai finished reading those comments, his eyes already turned red as he raised his head. It was easy for a little boy to get emotional. Then he almost cried out right away.

“How can they talk about my mom like this!”

After Qin Xiaobai paused for a while, he seemed to have understood his father’s intention. Then he asked in a hoarse voice, “This is why mother wants to change my last name?”

Gu Zijin held Qin Xiaobai in his arms and said sincerely, “That’s right. She didn’t want you to be abused because of your last name, that’s why she has brought that up. Xiaobai, it’s up to you if you’ll change your last name or not, your mother was only trying to protect you.”

Qin Xiaobai remembered how he had ignored his mother, which made him feel heartbroken, “Daddy, I want to talk to mom.”

“Fine.”

After Gu Zijin left Xiaobai’s room, he dialed a number. With the tenderness in his eyes gradually changing into rage, he compressed his lips, looking very scary.

He talked on the phone, “Make that topic disappear. Find out the main forces who have led this.”

“Yes, President Gu.’

He never cared about others’ comments on him, whether they were compliments or slander. However, when the people he valued were attacked, he wouldn’t sit idly by.

‘You Internet trolls think that you can be safe and sound at the other side of the screen?’

Thinking of that, Gu Zijin gave a chilling smile.

When he came back to his room, he found Qin Muxuan sitting on the bed anxiously. He chuckled, “Xiaobai wants to talk to you.”

Hearing that, Qin Muxuan walked to Qin Xiaobai’s room in a hurry. The moment Qin Xiaobai saw Qin Muxuan, he couldn’t help it and threw himself in her arms right away.

Qin Xiaobai buried his face into Qin Muxuan’s chest and said in a low voice, “Dabai, sorry that I was angry with you today.”

Qin Muxuan reached out her hand and held Qin Xiaobai more tightly while saying in a soft voice, “Xiaobai, you don’t have to apologize. It was thoughtless of me to bring that up. I won’t force you to change your last name anymore. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to do that.”

Qin Xiaobai was silent for a minute. Then he said, “Mom, can you give me a few days to consider it?”

Qin Muxuan nodded, “Of course.”

Then, Qin Xiaobai raised his head. As they looked at each other and smiled, the mother and son were finally reconciled.

When it was about ten o’clock at night, after Qin Muxuan had put Qin Xiaobai to sleep, she left his room quietly.

After a long time, Qin Xiaobai woke up in a daze again and went to the bathroom. However, when he walked out of his room, he ran into Yan Yuxiao.

Yan Yuxiao saw the vigilant look on Qin Xiaobai’s face and then gave a weird smile, “Xiaobai, it’s already very late. Why haven’t you slept yet?”

Qin Xiaobai frowned and asked, “Miss Yan, why haven’t you left?”

“I’ll leave soon.” Yan Yuxiao squatted down in front of Qin Xiaobai with that weird smile still on her face, “I only came here to tell you that we’ll have to get along well with each other in the future.”

“Why?”

“Because,” Yan Yuxiao said slowly, “After you father is engaged to me, I’ll become you stepmother!”

‘What?!’

That was shocking news to Qin Xiaobai and his head kept buzzing. When he came back to his sense, Yan Yuxiao had already disappeared.

“Mom!”

Qin Xiaobai rushed to Qin Muxuan’s room and jumped on the bed with tears, shouting, “Mom, you lied to me. You said that you wouldn’t abandon me!”

Qin Muxuan who had been woken up held Qin Xiaobai in her arms subconsciously, “What happened? I won’t abandon you.”

When Gu Zijin turned on the light, he and Qin Muxuan saw Qin Xiaobai’s tearful face. Then the boy kept crying out, “Liar! You liar! Daddy, you are a liar too! You are both going to abandon me!”

‘You have promised that we will stay together forever! Why did you two lie to me!’

‘I hate dad and mom! You are both liars!’

“Xiaobai, calm down!” Qin Muxuan pressed Xiaobai’s body, feeling a bit strange, “Did anyone tell you something?”

Qin Xiaobai didn’t hear the answer he wanted. Then he suddenly struggled to leave Qin Muxuan’s arms and ran away. Qin Muxuan followed him at once. However, Qin Xiaobai was very quick this time and already disappeared in the corridor.

Gu Zijin went to Qin Xiaobai’s room, finding no one there.

As Qin Muxuan heard the sound of the door opening downstairs, she suddenly got panicky and ran downstairs immediately. Then she saw the door had been half opened.

“Xiaobai, come back!”

She ran after him at once. Under the dark night sky, only the streetlights gave off dim light. However, Qin Muxuan couldn’t find Qin Xiaobai anywhere as if he had vanished into thin air.

Qin Muxuan felt cold all over.
