Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 582: His Silly Pig is So Easy to Fool
Gu Kuangyong somehow learned that Zhang Miaoyan had run away from home, and he called from overseas to warn Xie Yuchen: "Don’t think that just because Miao Yan doesn’t have her family to support her, you can bully her. Our Gu Family is her family now. If it happens again, I’ll come back personally to demand an explanation from your father!"
Xie Yuchen didn’t dare talk back after being scolded and promised Gu Kuangyong: "Uncle, I won’t bully her."
Zhang Miaoyan didn’t know how to thank Uncle Gu. Uncle Gu had supported her study abroad and let her stay at the Gu Family’s company. She owed the Gu Family too much.
"Uncle Gu, Yuchen treats me very well."
Gu Kuangyong said, "Miao Yan, why didn’t you tell me if you were feeling wronged? If I had known that Yuchen made you sad, I would have skinned him alive!"
Xie Yuchen lay beside her. His wife had the Gu Family backing her up yet still felt inferior. If others knew this, they would lose hope in life. Where else could one find such powerful support as the Gu Family?
Zhang Miaoyan was overwhelmed, "Uncle Gu, I... I didn’t want to worry you." How could she, with her status, deserve to be treated like a daughter by Uncle Gu?
She knew that the Old Madam Gu didn’t like her and was afraid that she would cause conflicts within the family.
"There’s no need to hesitate. Your mother left the Gu Family. She had a hard life, and it’s basically my fault... those old grudges shouldn’t affect you. I don’t want the Gu Family to let you down."
Zhang Miaoyan was filled with sorrow. She had never seen her mother, only heard that her mother used to be a servant for the Gu Family and had led a turbulent life full of hardships.
Gu Kuangyong vaguely remembered that elegant woman. He was young back then and caused trouble for her.
He didn’t dare to bring it up anymore. What was the use of saying more? Time had passed; the least he could do was to take better care of her daughter as a small form of compensation.
That night, Xie Yuchen couldn’t help but comfort his wife. After a passionate kiss, he held his dazed wife and said, "You must stop seeing Yan Yunyi. Understand?"
Zhang Miaoyan was so enchanted by her husband’s gentle approach that she couldn’t think straight. She just nodded at everything he said, "Okay."
Xie Yuchen was satisfied. His silly pig was indeed very gullible; he couldn’t let another man, especially that schemer Yan, deceive her.
An Junxi knew that Miao Yan had returned home and slept soundly as a result. When she woke up, there was a package at home, an overseas parcel from the United States.
He Sao said, "It’s sent by the Old Madam."
She opened it, and inside were new clothes for a little boy.
Mr. An and Mrs. An asked An Junxi, "You’re expecting a boy, right?"
He Sao responded, "The Old Madam said so. Why else would she buy so many baby boy items?"
All three of them were beaming with joy. Mrs. An was the happiest. Although there is gender equality, having a boy in a prominent family like the Gu Family would be an added blessing. What mother wouldn’t want her daughter to have a good life?
Mrs. An calculated the dates, "The due date is after the New Year. Aren’t the in-laws coming back for New Year’s?"
He Sao said, "Our Miss is still in her recovery phase and can’t come back yet. She’ll probably be spending New Year’s in the United States this year."
Mrs. An felt a bit of regret, "It won’t be as lively then."
While they discussed how to celebrate the New Year, An Junxi wasn’t in the mood at all and went back to her room.
How did her mother-in-law know it was a boy? She must have asked the doctor.
Her mother-in-law was far away in the United States but was still managing things at home, including finding out the baby’s gender, which made An Junxi feel a bit uncomfortable.
Gu Yikun was highly attuned to her moods; he would know even if she was a little upset.
"Is there something you want to tell your husband?"
An Junxi didn’t want to complain about this. It was just a gift for the baby from her mother-in-law. Getting upset over it seemed unreasonable.
She found a topic, "New Year is coming, and it’s Ai Xi’s first New Year at home. I can’t play with the kids, so that’s your task."
A few months ago, Jin Xiu had suggested setting off fireworks in the yard, and Gu Yikun had agreed.
Gu Yikun never used to look forward to New Year’s. This year, with her and the kids around, it felt extra special.
He played with her tiny hand, "Our little princess will surely receive the best New Year’s gift."
An Junxi said, "What about me? Don’t I get anything?"
"You can have whatever you want; your husband will definitely satisfy you."
His words carried a playful tone as one hand sneaked into her clothes, clearly hinting at something.
An Junxi slapped his hand away, "Don’t you try to trick me."
Gu Yikun didn’t want to play with fire. He assumed a gentlemanly demeanor,"Your husband has prepared a big red envelope for you."
An Junxi suddenly thought about the company, "I heard that Gu Family’s annual gala is always grand. I’ve never attended one. Where is it being held this year?"
"At the Queen’s Restaurant. President Gu is in a good mood this year and is letting the staff enter a big prize draw."
President Gu was that extravagant; he wanted to share his joy with everyone when he was happy. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
An Junxi asked him, "Why is he particularly happy this year?"
Gu Yikun looked a bit pitiful as he snuggled into her shoulder, "You weren’t here the past two years, so I didn’t even come home. Holidays all felt the same, either at the company or abroad." He seemed to be seeking comfort and was a bit clingy.
An Junxi wiped off her cold sweat. Could the aloof ironman President Gu be acting cute?
She knew her husband’s little mind games and didn’t want to disappoint him. She coaxed him, "This year, the kids and I are all here, so we can spend New Year together. The house will be bustling." If it weren’t for her limited mobility, she would have wanted to cook a New Year’s Eve dinner.
Gu Yikun was thrilled to hear what he wanted, "We have to spend New Year together every year from now on. Promise me that."
An Junxi thought Mr. Gu was being childish, "Of course, we will spend New Year together unless you don’t want to come home."
Gu Yikun just wanted to hear her promise, "Say you promise me."
An Junxi indulged him, "Okay, I promise. We’ll spend every holiday together going forward, along with the kids."
Gu Yikun gave her a rewarding kiss, "Having a wife is the best."
An Junxi couldn’t do anything about it. Even the most mature man had a childish side. It was true. "Are you going to the company’s annual gala?"
"No, I’ll stay home with you."
"It wouldn’t be fun without the boss there. What would the media write about?" An Junxi blinked her eyes, "I really want to go."
Gu Yikun massaged her legs and said, "It’s too noisy. We’ll go together next year."
"No, I want to go this year."
An Junxi’s sudden act of cuteness melted Gu Yikun’s heart. He felt a rush of warmth as he kissed her passionately on her lips, saying, "Don’t tempt your husband, little minx."
An Junxi’s little fingers stroked her husband’s chest muscles, "Take me with you, hubby."
Gu Yikun didn’t dare to continue the game. He grasped her mischievous hand firmly, "No, it’s too noisy there. I’ll definitely take you next year."
An Junxi was unhappy, and Gu Yikun tried everything to console his wife, "Xi Xi, the annual gala is in mid-January. You’re well into your pregnancy, and those places aren’t safe."
