Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 516: Missing the Warmth of His Embrace
Yue Xiaoyang thought that once Gu Yikun went back and saw An Junxi, he would know the truth. He waited for several days and didn’t see Gu Yikun coming to deal with him, so he called An Junxi.
An Junxi said, "Your idea is good, I’ll adopt it."
Yue Xiaoyang was shocked, "An Junxi, I thought you would feel sorry for your husband, but it turns out you are even more ruthless than I am!"
Using Gu Yikun’s guilt to abuse him, she really is heartless!
With such a wife, how could Gu Yikun not have fun in life?
Yue Xiaoyang knew that they were having a separation, and he still had some conscience for his brother, so he invited Gu Yikun and An Junxi to bring their children over for a meal.
Gu Yikun wanted to take the opportunity to see his wife more, so he agreed immediately when Yue Xiaoyang suggested it.
Now that he and Xi Xi were living apart, he lay alone every night, finding it hard to sleep, always thinking of excuses to see her, but fearing she wouldn’t agree. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
Gu Yikun was trying hard to repair their relationship. An Junxi wasn’t indifferent; she had rejected him several times, wanting to see how sincere he was.
After being rejected for the Nth time, Gu Yikun did not appear in their house for two consecutive days.
The children often mentioned their father, and Aunt He would occasionally call back to the villa to ask Xiao Luo, "Has the young master eaten?"
Only An Junxi was calm.
Her calmness also signified anger. Gu Yikun had too little sincerity, no patience at all. How could she forgive him like this?
At night, after coaxing their daughter to sleep, An Junxi looked at her phone and found no message from him in two days.
She felt bored and asked Aunt He to keep an eye on Ai Xi, put on a coat, and said, "I’m going to the supermarket to buy some things."
She didn’t really need to buy anything, just wanted to go out for a walk.
Now that the company’s new course development had entered the IT department’s design phase, she was not as busy as before. With free time on hand, she thought more about what Gu Yikun was doing at home.
She really hated herself for worrying about him, it was so unprincipled and timid. She had to go out to clear her head and sober up a bit.
An Junxi took the elevator to the ground floor; the elevator door opened, and a blast of cold wind blew in, making her sneeze.
The weather was getting colder, and her coat was a bit thin.
She was too lazy to go back upstairs to change; the supermarket was nearby, she would just deal with it.
Yan City’s winters, at their coldest, only have a few snowflakes, never a heavy snowfall.
An Junxi loved watching the snow. As she walked out of the elevator, she was thinking about how the last time she saw snow was almost three years ago when he took her to Argentina for a vacation.
In the past few years, she had been hiding on a southern island and giving birth to Ai Xi, never experiencing a real winter.
In her eyes, winter must have a ceremonious heavy snowfall to be perfect.
With this in mind, Gu Yikun’s figure began to occupy every corner of her mind.
That year, to make her forget the fear of being kidnapped, he took her to Argentina, never once leaving her side, always holding her hand no matter where they went. No matter how cold the weather, having him beside her made it warm.
Indeed, having experienced it makes one picky. It’s not even officially winter, and she already missed his warmth.
Habits are truly terrifying.
An Junxi walked quickly out of the building and saw a familiar figure.
Gu Yikun was sitting in front of the car, holding a cigarette in his slender fingers. The streetlamp elongated his shadow, hiding half of his face in darkness, making him look even more profound in the cold night.
An Junxi didn’t know why, but she felt a bit of loneliness looking at him. How long had he been standing there?
She walked over and stood in front of him. Gu Yikun saw her appear before him and couldn’t quite believe his eyes.
An Junxi stared at the cigarette in his hand, and Gu Yikun immediately threw the butt into the trash, saying, "I didn’t smoke, the wind is too strong, it burns out quickly."
An Junxi said nothing and turned to walk towards the supermarket.
Gu Yikun quickly followed, "It’s late, where are you going instead of sleeping?"
An Junxi said, "To the supermarket."
From behind, a shadow loomed over her; Gu Yikun draped his coat over her shoulders.
His coat was very large, feeling heavy on An Junxi’s shoulders.
She wanted to take it off, but Gu Yikun held her hand, "Xi Xi, I know you don’t want to touch my things. This coat is new."
An Junxi stopped, not wanting to touch his things? Where did he get that idea?
Gu Yikun hung his head in front of her, "Xi Xi, I don’t want to force you to forgive me. I know you don’t want to see me... I really can’t sleep at home, I’m afraid of bothering you. It feels like time passes faster waiting here."
The house is too empty without her beside him. Every night is endless.
He’s afraid she’ll get used to sleeping alone and won’t need him anymore.
An Junxi saw that he was good at reflecting and continued walking to the supermarket.
Gu Yikun knew she was annoyed with him and didn’t dare to get too close, following from a distance.
The supermarket was still crowded at ten o’clock at night, mostly residents from nearby communities. Small couples strolled in groups, picking up essential items for their little families. This was one of the most mundane aspects of many couples’ lives.
An Junxi had never experienced these mundane aspects with Gu Yikun.
President Gu’s life lacked the touch of everyday life. Everything at home was prepared by the servants. Before knowing her, he rarely even stayed at home for meals. After marriage, he came home daily, but the servants managed the household so well that President Gu’s vision encompassed the world, disconnected from the details of domestic life.
An Junxi wandered in front of the supermarket shelves, followed by the well-known figure of President Gu, drawing quite a bit of attention.
Gu Yikun exuded an innate, cold elegance. His model-like stature was a significant advantage, easily distinguishing him from others and catching many people’s eyes.
Someone secretly raised their phone to take a picture, "Wow, even President Gu goes to the supermarket with his wife. So down-to-earth!"
An Junxi avoided their cameras as Gu Yikun walked up, his tall body blocking her from the lenses.
He wanted to hold her so badly, but knowing she was repelling him, he dared not reach out, only using his body to shield her from the cameras.
An Junxi thought the cautious Gu Yikun was really pitiable.
She put on a cold expression, picking out some yogurt drinks and fruit.
Initially, she intended to buy some sanitary pads but felt embarrassed to get them in front of so many people’s attention.
Gu Yikun took the items she had picked and said, "Remember to warm the yogurt before drinking it. Although it doesn’t taste as good, it won’t hurt your stomach."
An Junxi didn’t respond, so Gu Yikun said, "I’ll remind Aunt He to pay more attention."
An Junxi finally said, "No need to remind Aunt He, she’s busy enough."
Gu Yikun quickly responded, "Why don’t you move back home? We have plenty of servants, and I can take care of you too."
An Junxi glanced at him and snorted.
Gu Yikun didn’t dare to say more.
An Junxi picked only a few items, and Gu Yikun took the initiative to check out, carrying the bags as they walked back.
