Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 528: My Wife Has Been Acting Strange Lately!

Chapter 528: Chapter 528: My Wife Has Been Acting Strange Lately!

Gu Yikun couldn’t figure it out. Sure, women have mood swings, but this was too much!

The next day, An Junxi quickly got ready and went downstairs for breakfast, not even bothering to give Gu Yikun the good morning kiss he wanted.

Gu Yikun was left in the room. His wife had been acting really strange lately!

He couldn’t help but wonder if his charm was waning.

Gu Yikun went downstairs afterward. An Junxi had barely touched her breakfast before she put down her chopsticks and urged Jin Xiu, "Hurry up and eat, we’re leaving soon."

Gu Yikun sat down at the dining table. Their son greeted him good morning, but as for his wife... she acted as if she didn’t see him.

Gu Yikun sighed. As the head of the family, he really had no sense of presence.

Gu Jinxiu, noticing his mom barely ate, also didn’t want to eat. He put down his spoon and said, "I’m full."

An Junxi saw his bowl still had a lot left. "Don’t be difficult, finish your food."

Gu Jinxiu pointed to his mom’s bowl, "Mommy didn’t finish hers either."

An Junxi glared at him, "Why aren’t you listening? Are you going to eat or not?"

The obvious reprimand from An Junxi left Gu Jinxiu stunned. Where was his gentle mommy? She never used to be like this.

He turned to look at his dad. Gu Yikun shrugged, he was also a victim here.

Women, they’re really complicated.

Not believing his mom would truly scold him, Gu Jinxiu tried to get by with cuteness, "Mommy, I’m not that hungry."

An Junxi looked stern, "You won’t eat? Then don’t eat tomorrow either."

Gu Jinxiu was taken aback. Seriously?

He quickly picked up his spoon and stuffed his breakfast into his mouth, while cautiously observing his mom’s expression, looking pitiful.

Gu Yikun tried to advise An Junxi, "Xi Xi, you should eat more."

An Junxi grimaced in disgust, "I’m not hungry."

In his mind, Gu Jinxiu thought, Mommy is so domineering. She eats so little but wants him to finish his entire breakfast. More domineering than Daddy!

Of course, Gu Jinxiu didn’t dare say it out loud. Mommy had absolute authority at home, a power that couldn’t be challenged.

Gu Yikun didn’t dare to force his wife. He had the housemaid pack a breakfast for her and placed it in her bag, "Remember to eat something when you get to work."

Looking like she had no appetite, An Junxi didn’t want to argue over this anymore, "Let’s go."

She walked out, and the two men of the Gu family cautiously followed behind her.

Gu Jinxiu asked his dad, "Dad, did you make Mommy angry?"

Gu Yikun maintained his tall image, "Don’t talk nonsense, no such thing."

"Then why is Mommy angry?" Recently, Mommy had been like this, he didn’t dare talk to her.

Gu Yikun also wanted to know the reason!

He said, "How would I know? Women are like this, just tolerate it."

The two men, big and small, silently made their own plans and dared not provoke the young madam the entire way.

When An Junxi reached the company, she was busy from the moment she sat down until she left. In the evening, Gu Yikun came to pick her up from work, seeing she was still busy.

President Gu rarely came to Si Yuan, so his appearance there caused a stir. "Jun Xi, President Gu came to pick you up from work, how enviable!"

It was as if they weren’t talking about her. An Junxi told Gu Yikun, "Wait for me a moment."

Gu Yikun’s enthusiasm was quenched by her cold response.

He had wanted to use this chance to show his efforts, hoping his wife would notice his enthusiasm, but she didn’t care at all!

He had no choice but to follow his wife’s words. What else could he do?

So, in front of everyone’s eyes, President Gu quietly sat and waited for An Junxi to finish her overtime, occasionally pouring her water or printing documents. Wasn’t that the job of an office assistant?

Such a prestigious office assistant had never been seen before. Everyone admired An Junxi immensely, thinking she must be amazing to tame President Gu from a lion to a lamb!

Under everyone’s stares, Gu Yikun coldly swept them a glance, "My wife is so busy with overtime, and you all have so much free time?"

No one dared to look anymore. It turns out President Gu was only gentle with his own wife!

An Junxi finally finished her work and went home with Gu Yikun, but that night she also slept with her back to her husband, not happy even if he touched her lightly.

Gu Yikun was about to go crazy. He kept his composure in front of An Junxi, but at the company, his face was as cold as Asura’s, scolding anyone in his way. The atmosphere at Gu’s Headquarters was tense: did someone upset the president? Why was he in a bad mood?

Everyone implored Secretary Wang to find out what’s going on. They had no idea what was upsetting him, and everything they did seemed wrong. This couldn’t go on!

Secretary Wang didn’t want to take the task either, "You think you’re scared? I’m the one bearing the brunt here!"

Everyone pleaded, "Sister Wang, you’re the only one who can ask the president. We can’t figure out his mood, what if we trigger him accidentally?"

Unable to refuse, Secretary Wang brought coffee to the president, cautiously asking, "President, are you worried about some project lately?"

Gu Yikun didn’t hear her, lost in thought as he stared at the files on his desk.

With no results, Secretary Wang was about to leave when Gu Yikun suddenly asked, "Secretary Wang, you’re a woman. Why are women so hard to appease?"

The proud President Gu even said the word "appease". Secretary Wang immediately realized it was about his wife—this was serious!

She groaned inwardly. What happened between the couple now?

After prying a bit, Gu Yikun shared An Junxi’s recent odd behavior. Secretary Wang listened in shock, realizing that the cold-faced President was quite lowly placed at home.

She barely held back her laughter, "Ahem, President, maybe your wife is under a lot of pressure. She’s not only a curriculum development specialist but also your wife. The company has high expectations of her, maybe she feels overwhelmed."

Gu Yikun asked, "Then what should I do? Set up a new department and take over the development work myself?"

Secretary Wang replied, "That’s not feasible, it would make her angry. I don’t have a solution for now, but I’ll think about it and let you know as soon as I find one."

Gu Yikun waved her off, "You can go."

Secretary Wang breathed a sigh of relief, spreading word that the president had some family issues. Everyone should stay cautious.

The staff understood—it was all because of the madam!

An Junxi had no idea her displeasure was causing such a stir. One day, busy at the company and skipping lunch, she smelled a fishy odor from someone’s lunch in the afternoon, and quickly rushed to the bathroom to vomit.

Gong Xiaoyu was terrified, "What’s wrong? Don’t scare me! Your husband will kill me!"

An Junxi wanted to say it was nothing but stood up and felt the world spinning, collapsing unconscious.

Gong Xiaoyu and Lin Yuanqing, in a panic, supported her, "Oh my God, call the hospital quickly, the Gu Family private hospital!"

An Junxi was rushed to the hospital. Gong Xiaoyu, frantic, called Gu Yikun on the way, "Your wife fainted at the office. We’re on our way to the hospital now!"
