Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 535 Deliberately Taking Advantage of Her
An Junxi had a tantrum with Gu Yikun, and no matter how he tried to appease her, it didn’t work.
She didn’t want to talk to him, so she stayed in the children’s room playing with the two kids. Surprisingly, Jin Xiu and Ai Xi were not clinging to her anymore; they were sticking to their grandparents, sitting together listening to the old couple tell stories about Xing An.
Mr. An and Mrs. An greatly enjoyed the company of their grandchildren as they described the beautiful little town of Xing An and the interesting events that happened in the farmhouse there.
Gu Jinxiu had been to many places, always surrounded by the luxuries of a wealthy young master, but he had never been to a town like Xing An.
As he looked at his grandfather with shining eyes and a face full of longing, he asked, "Grandpa, when will you take me back to play?"
Little Ai Xi, being her brother’s shadow, wanted to go wherever he went. Hearing that her brother was going, she also raised her hand, "I want to go too!"
Mrs. An smiled and said, "Of course, next time we’ll all go back and play together."
Standing beside them, An Junxi finally managed to get a word in, "Yes, we can all go back and play for a few days when we have the chance." She hadn’t been home in a long time either.
Gu Yikun sat down next to his wife and said in a conciliatory tone, "After the baby is born, I’ll find some time to go back with you."
An Junxi deliberately said, "We don’t need you to come with us."
Mrs. An admonished her daughter, "Speak pleasantly, Yikun is taking care of you."
Gu Yikun defended his wife, "It’s alright. Whatever makes her happy."
Mr. An found the noise they were making bothersome and asked, "Xi Xi, have you eaten the stew?"
"Yes, I have."
Now, An Junxi’s nausea wasn’t as severe, so she could eat light foods.
She thought her father was showing concern for her and was about to say something, but her father continued, "If you’ve eaten, then go upstairs and rest. I want to tell the kids some stories."
An Junxi was stunned, was her father rejecting her?
Gu Yikun’s lips curled into a slight smile. When An Junxi glared at him, he quickly sobered up and said, "It’s rare for Mom and Dad to see the kids, come on, let’s go upstairs and rest."
An Junxi ignored him and tried to draw the attention of the children, "Jin Xiu, Ai Xi, Mommy can tell stories too, you know."
Gu Jinxiu said to her, "Mommy, go to bed early. I want to hear Grandpa’s story."
Ai Xi also chimed in like her brother, "Grandpa’s story."
The grandparents’ faces were all smiles, "Such sensible children!"
An Junxi left the room feeling stifled, they were going too far. She was no longer important now!
Gu Yikun followed his wife back to the master bedroom. An Junxi walked fast, making Gu Yikun anxious, "Xi Xi, don’t walk too fast, be careful for the baby."
An Junxi stopped and poked his chest with her finger, "You only care about the baby, do you really care about me?"
Afraid she might get upset and hurt herself, Gu Yikun lifted her into his arms and carried her to the bed, "Get some sleep early tonight. Tomorrow I’ll accompany you to the prenatal check-up."
An Junxi kicked him with her leg, but Gu Yikun pressed her down with his long leg, "Stop fussing, be careful for the baby."
His stern tone made An Junxi feel even more aggrieved, and her eyes filled with tears, "Baby, baby, it’s always about the baby. You don’t truly care about me at all! I hate you!"
Gu Yikun couldn’t bear to see her cry, so he gently embraced her, not daring to hold her too tightly. He kissed her cheek, "It’s my fault for speaking harshly. Don’t be mad, of course I care about you. Don’t you know your husband’s true feelings?"
His voice was low and tender, lulling her. Yet, An Junxi still felt inexplicably wronged, "I don’t want to see you. I want to sleep alone tonight. You go sleep in the study."
Gu Yikun made her look at him, "Honey, I’ve told you, we must never sleep in separate rooms. Are you really going to kick me out again?"
An Junxi snorted, "Seeing you just makes me angry."
Gu Yikun knew he couldn’t let her sleep with such emotions; her sleep quality would surely suffer.
He patted her cheek, "Honey, I love you and the baby. Don’t you believe me?"
An Junxi said, "You know why I’m angry, don’t play dumb."
Gu Yikun twirled a strand of her hair with his long fingers, patiently soothing her, "Letting Xiaoyang and Gong Xiaoyu meet now isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Xiaoyang has never asked me for anything. This one time, he wants to fight for the person he loves. Xi Xi, let’s give him a chance, alright?"
An Junxi was not satisfied, "If Yue Xiaoyang really wants to fight for her, he should think of a way himself. Why disrupt our schedule? Doesn’t he know how important this course is to us? The senior will hate him even more!"
These were details Gu Yikun wasn’t worried about. He reassured his wife, "Your course will be launched, but it might be delayed. Xi Xi, let’s help Yue Xiaoyang, okay?"
Seeing her husband speak so humbly, An Junxi couldn’t bear to make it harder for him, "How am I supposed to explain this to the senior?"
"I’ll go talk to her."
An Junxi rested her chin on her hand, Did that mean she had to play dumb?
Gu Yikun told her not to think too much, "Come, change your clothes and sleep early."
He found her comfortable pajamas and offered to help her change, but An Junxi clutched her clothes, "You big pervert, what are you up to?"
Gu Yikun grinned wickedly, "What else would I do while helping you change?"
He approached her teasingly, "Or is my wife expecting something from her husband? I’m willing to oblige."
An Junxi scooted to the edge of the bed, "I’m not!"
Afraid she might fall off the bed, Gu Yikun pulled her back without teasing her further, "Alright, you aren’t. Let me change your clothes."
An Junxi insisted, "I can do it myself!"
Gu Yikun wore an innocent expression, "Are you really worried your husband might turn into a beast? No matter how desperate I might be, I know what’s appropriate and won’t touch you now."
But as soon as he took off her top, Gu Yikun’s eyes turned fiery. One second earlier, he promised not to turn into a beast; the next, he was already staring at her seductive body like a starving man.
Recently, An Junxi had been able to eat properly. With the carefully nutritious meals, she had put on a little weight. The new weight was wisely distributed, accentuating all the right curves of her already exquisite figure, making her even more irresistible. Just one glance at her, and Gu Yikun’s thoughts went astray.
Recognizing her husband’s familiar gaze, An Junxi crossed her arms over her chest, "I’m cold!"
Gu Yikun swallowed hard and hastily put her pajamas on. Whether intentional or not, his hands brushed against her chest several times, causing An Junxi’s face to blush bright red.
She seriously suspected he was taking advantage of her deliberately. She re-adjusted her pajamas, "Enough, don’t touch me."
Gu Yikun regretted his impulsiveness, realizing he might have started a fire.
Feeling extremely uncomfortable, he drew her into a passionate kiss, letting his hands roam freely over her body, hoping it might somewhat ease his desire.
An Junxi felt his growing need and tried to push him away, "Gu Yikun, mmph..."
Not daring to go any further, Gu Yikun forced himself to let go of her and tucked her into bed, "I’ll take a shower."
An Junxi wanted to stop him, worried that taking a cold shower in this weather could make him sick!
But Gu Yikun had already walked quickly to the bathroom, afraid that if he slowed down, he wouldn’t be able to control himself.
Lying in bed, An Junxi listened to the constant sound of running water from the bathroom. Her heart ached for her husband, having to endure a cold shower in such cold weather.
