Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 593: Public Relationship

Gu Yikun praised her, "My wife is the smartest."

An Junxi covered her face, "You’re praising me for this? Isn’t President Gu very demanding?"

"Depends on the person. If it’s you, everything is perfect."

Even An Junxi’s thick-skinned self couldn’t handle it, "Don’t spoil me like this, even mom says you’ve spoiled me rotten."

"Nonsense, my wife is perfect."

An Junxi’s face turned a bit shy, "Okay, stop playing around. Aren’t you heading out? Isn’t today the group’s annual meeting?"

Gu Yikun looked at his watch, reluctant to leave, "I won’t go. I have a lot more to say."

An Junxi was speechless, how could he act like a child? "Without the president on site, there won’t be any atmosphere. The media is waiting for you. You can tell me everything when you come back."

Gu Yikun looked at the time again, "Then I’ll go for two hours. You wait for me at home."

"Got it. Where would I go if not at home?"

Gu Yikun gave her a reluctant kiss, "You can watch the live broadcast of the meeting at home. Call me if you need anything."

An Junxi hurried him out, saying that if others knew President Gu was now a homebody, they’d never believe it.

Gu Jinxiu was downstairs in a small suit waiting for his dad. He used to hate attending these banquets, but from now on, he wanted to stay by his dad’s side and learn.

The Gu Family’s annual meeting was grand. As the largest financial conglomerate in the country, the Gu Family’s business projects spanned various fields, and the group’s performance was a barometer of the nation’s economic stability.

An Junxi sat in the hall watching TV with her parents and child. The annual meeting site was luxurious and bustling, with many celebrities attending. Watching it made An Junxi itch to be there too.

Ai Xi was sitting on Grandma’s lap. When she saw her dad appear, she pointed at the TV and shouted, "Daddy and brother!"

"Grandma sees them too," Mrs. An held the little bun, Ai Xi. "Ai Xi recognized them at a glance."

Gu Yikun had just gotten out of the car, and the media’s cameras were already aimed at him. Gu Jinxiu followed beside him. The striking looks of the father and son made the media gasp in awe, and the flashes kept going off.

Gu Yikun walked across the red carpet at the hotel entrance. His tall frame, enhanced by a well-fitted suit, exuded extraordinary nobility and charisma.

Wherever he appeared, he was the focus of attention.

Gu Aixi, in her little fangirl mode, said, "Daddy is so handsome! Right, mommy?"

Even through the TV, An Junxi was awestruck by her husband. She nodded repeatedly, "Yes, your daddy is really handsome."

Ai Xi said, "Isn’t he your husband?"

Mrs. An chuckled, "This little one just loves to mimic adults talking." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

An Junxi focused intently on the TV. Her husband had only been gone a short while, yet she already felt like it had been so long since she’d seen him.

She held her face in a fangirl manner, and Aunt He reminded her, "Jun Xi, your drool is about to fall. When Young Master comes back, you can look at him to your heart’s content. Not just look, you can hug him too!"

The maids were covering their mouths, laughing. Even Ai Xi laughed, "Mommy is embarrassed!"

An Junxi blushed, protesting, "Aunt He, I am not drooling!"

Aunt He laughed loudly, "Young Master would be very happy to know you’re like this."

Gu Yikun didn’t know his wife at home was in full fangirl mode. If he did, he might turn around and get back in the car to come home.

He greeted the media briefly. Gu Jinxiu followed beside his dad, thinking his dad was really tall and strong.

When will he ever be as awesome as his dad?

Secretary Wang saw the president had brought the young master. She stepped forward, "President, you need to give a speech at the opening ceremony. It will take about ten minutes."

"Too long. Six minutes. I’m rushing to get home."

"Got it. I’ll communicate with the host."

Secretary Wang was a whirlwind at work. She was about to leave when Gu Yikun stopped her, "Who will present the awards during the raffle?"

Secretary Wang replied, "The raffle is scheduled mid-program. The grand prize will be presented by you. With such a big prize this year, it’s more meaningful for the president to give it personally."

The grand prize was a one million dollar check! This news was already known to everyone at Gu’s Headquarters. Before today, everyone had been doing everything they could to increase their luck, such as worshiping Buddha, setting up Feng Shui arrays, and placing crystals, hoping to be the lucky one to win the grand prize.

Gu Yikun glanced at the annual meeting schedule, "Move the award presentation forward; I can’t stay too long."

Secretary Wang cried internally. Did the president know how much work the behind-the-scenes staff had to do because of his one word?

The annual meeting was being broadcast live. Wanling Entertainment took this opportunity to let their new artists get some exposure, comparable to recording the hottest variety shows. No mistakes could be made!

Secretary Wang, being an excellent secretary, certainly wouldn’t complain. Her efficient smile remained flawless, "Got it. I’ll go prepare right away."

An Junxi ate snacks while watching TV. Her husband had appeared for less than fifteen minutes and had already checked the time twice. Was he really rushing home?

An Junxi felt sweet inside. She sent a message, "Hubby, you look so handsome tonight!"

The phone in Gu Yikun’s pocket vibrated. He took it out to check.

He usually didn’t carry his phone at banquets, but now, with a pregnant wife at home waiting, he carried it everywhere.

Seeing the few words on the screen, Gu Yikun smiled gently, his eyes softening.

He tapped a few buttons with his long fingers and responded: "Miss you."

When An Junxi received her husband’s reply, she became even more starstruck. Her husband missed her no matter where he was!

She continued watching TV. When she saw Yue Xiaoyang appear on screen, she was stunned. Did Yue Xiaoyang’s legs recover? She hadn’t heard anything about that.

Yue Xiaoyang carried the air of an aristocratic young master. After getting out of the car, he adjusted his suit buttons, showing no signs of ever having been injured.

He didn’t walk directly into the hotel but extended a gentlemanly hand into the car, elegantly taking the hand of a beautiful woman to help her out.

The media went into an uproar. An Junxi dropped her snack to the ground.

Little Ai Xi excitedly shouted, "Uncle Yue and his wife!"

Wife?

Mr. An and Mrs. An asked their daughter, "Did Xiao Yu and Xiao Yang get married?"

An Junxi shook her head dumbfoundedly. She didn’t know either!

When did they reconcile? How come they didn’t tell her anything!

Gong Xiaoyu let Yue Xiaoyang help her out of the car. She held onto his arm, smiling gracefully and charmingly.

Yue Xiaoyang worried about her getting bumped by reporters, so he protected her in his arms. Their appearance together in the media like this definitely felt like a public declaration of their relationship. It seemed they were close to something good happening.

An Junxi was happy for her senior and quickly messaged her: Good one, Boss Gong. You accepted Young Master Yue without telling me. Are we still good sisters?! She even added an emoji of someone getting beaten up.

Gong Xiaoyu was a bit nervous. She hadn’t actually agreed to go public yet, but Yue Xiaoyang had brought her here anyway.

She thought she was just accompanying him to a small banquet, but who knew it was the Gu Family’s grand annual event?

As soon as Gong Xiaoyu got out of the car, she was treated like a rare animal, with photos being taken of her. She heard reporters talking, "Isn’t this Assistant Yu’s ex-fiancée? How is she with Young Master Yue? There’s been no word of this."

Gong Xiaoyu knew she had been tricked by Yue Xiaoyang once again.
