No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Chapter 88: I Know



Qin Feng walked into the office with a cup of coffee in his hand, followed by Qin Muxuan. Everything in the office was just as the same as before. Qin Feng suddenly remembered something and said,

“The books about the design contest you asked me to find for you, I’ve already asked someone to pack them up for you. I have wanted to send them to you. Now that you are here, you can check them by yourself.”

Qin Muxuan expressed thanks to him and sat on her seat. Qin Feng put a few drawings which needed modification on Qin Muxuan’s desk. She took a glance at those drawings and picked up a pen, preparing to start working. Suddenly, what happened last night sprang to her mind. Qin Muxuan’s hand suddenly paused, because she remembered Elderly Lady Gu’s words.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Right now, Elderly Lady Gu’s intention was pretty obvious, which was kicking Qin Muxuan out of the Gu family. Qin Muxuan felt that she couldn’t let things continue this way. ‘Maybe it’s better to leave that family than to endure all kinds of suffering.’ She thought.

Qin Muxuan lowered her head and wondered whether she was able to leave Gu Zijin and Qin Xiaobai. As she thought of that, she only felt a dull pain in her heart, which hurt her so badly. Meanwhile, Qin Feng glimpsed the sad look on her face.

When he knew about the complicated relationship between Qin Muxuan and Gu Zijin, the first reaction he had was not astonishment but slight disappointment. He had a good impression of Qin Muxuan ever since he witnessed her special design philosophy and self-respecting and humble character. Therefore he had sort of taken a shine to her. However, he felt lucky that the affection he had for her was not very deep, otherwise it would be too late for him to stop that feeling.

At lunch, Qin Muxuan gave a call to Gu Zijin. As the latter saw the name on the screen of his phone, he gave a sign to others that the meeting needed to be broken off for the moment. Then he stood up to answer the call. The other executives all knew that the call must be from Miss Qin.

Gu Zijin heard Qin Muxuan’s voice right away. Then with a tender look crossing his eyes, he asked,

“What’s up?”

“Nothing, eh… I just wanted to see if you have eaten lunch yet.”

“I’ll go to eat after I finish the meeting.”

“Gu Zijin, what happened yesterday really was not…”

“I know.”

Before Qin Muxuan could finish her words, she was interrupted by Gu Zijin at once. Hearing that, she bit her lips gently and tried to hold back her tears. She didn’t mind being misunderstood by others, but deep down she still didn’t hope that person who misunderstood her would be Gu Zijin. However, now that Gu Zijin had said straightly that he trusted her, could she believe that?

After she finished the call, she let out a sigh of relief. Then she started to modify the drawings. In the afternoon, Qin Feng left the firm to deal with something. A person, having greeted the staff at the reception, pushed open the door of Qin Muxuan’s office right away. As Qin Muxuan saw the comer, she got a bit dazed, saying,

“Yan Yuxiao?”

Yan Yuxiao took off her sunglasses, seeming not surprised to see Qin Muxuan, and said with a beaming smile,

“Muxuan, you also work here? I came here to fetch the design paper I’ve ordered.”

“You are a client of the Qin Firm?”

“Of course. This firm has a reputation in this industry, someone has recommended it to me.”

Yan Yuxiao walked to Qin Feng’s desk and looked for the paper she wanted according to the code. Qin Muxuan didn’t feel anything wrong about that and was only a bit surprised by this little coincidence. Then she realized that she might not want to have anything to do with Yan Yuxiao because the latter had a thing for Gu Zijin.

However, since Yan Yuxiao had saved Xiaobai before, Qin Muxuan told herself that she had to change her opinion about Yan Yuxiao, and that one should never have a prejudice against others.

After Yan Yuxiao got the drawings, she saw Qin Muxuan reading a book right now. Then she tried to strike up a conversation,

“I think I’ve seen a book similar to this. Muxuan, are you going to attend the design contest in City A this time?”

Qin Muxuan didn’t realize that Yan Yuxiao also had some insight into this field. Then she nodded. Yan Yuxiao chuckled and said,

“Although I am in the show business right now, I actually know a lot of things about this industry. My major in the college is the same as Zijin.”

After Yan Yuxiao had chatted with Qin Muxuan for a while, she said that she needed to shoot for the film right now. Qin Muxuan didn’t give too much thought about that and watched Yan Yuxiao leaving. When Yan Yuxiao walked out of the building, she put on her sunglasses and showed an ironic smile. ‘You want to attend the design contest which is held once in a year? How can you be qualified to attend? You are nothing without Zijin’s help. The only reason why you can stay safe and sound is that Zijin likes you.’

The moment she sat in the van, Xiaohuan looked at her with a nervous look and said,

“Yuxiao, what can we do now? Elderly Lady Gu called you several times. It seems that something is wrong with Master Gu.”

Yan Yuxiao squinted her eyes and took the phone to dial back. The moment the line got through, the anxious voice had already come,

“Yuxiao, why would Gu Heng be in the intensive care unit? Hasn’t you added glucose into his infusion bottle according to the doctor’s prescription? How come he has been sent to the emergency room? Has something gone wrong?”

“Grandma, I really have added the glucose according to what the doctor has told me. How about asking the doctor again? I am really sorry for what happened to Uncle Gu. Grandma, do you think we should tell Zijin about this? I’m afraid that he will get angry if he knows about it by himself.

Yan Yuxiao said as if she had been wronged. If any other people said that, Elderly Lady Gu wouldn’t believe because she had been through lots of things when she was young after all. However, Yan Yuxiao was the one she trusted, so Elderly Lady Gu was not suspicious of the girl’s words.

“Don’t tell Zijin. I’ll visit Gu Heng today, you go ask that doctor.”

“Fine, grandma, when I find that doctor, I’ll give you a satisfactory reply.”

After Yan Yuxiao had hung up the phone, she showed a grim smile. In her view, as long as she could become the madam of the Gu family, she didn’t mind using as many pawns as she could. She thought that Gu Heng was about to die anyway, so it didn’t matter if she could use him to get what she wanted. Therefore, Yan Yuxiao had increased the dosage of the glucose. Injecting glucose would be of no harm to ordinary people, but Gu Heng was already in bad health and the dosage of all the things that were injected in his body had to be limited to a certain amount. So a little bit more of the glucose in his infusion bottle was enough to kill him.

Xiaohuan didn’t know what Yan Yuxiao had done, but she was the one who drove Yan Yuxiao to the hospital that day. If Yan Yuxiao had done something evil, Xiaohuan would be considered as her helper.

Thinking of that, Xiaohuan got nervous. Then she tried hard to cool down and drove the van back.

In the Yin group.

The board meeting was full of noises. A few senior directors looked at each other at a loss. The president of the company had informed them that he would hold an important conference today but not told what the conference was about. Thus those directors had no idea what they should do right now. These years, a lot of resources of the Yin group had been taken away by other corporations, and the Gu group had already become the leader in this industry.

As a result, the Yin group showed a declining tendency these years. If the directors still couldn’t think of an improvement plan, this corporation might have to leave the ranks of the top players.
