Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 603: Don’t Mind Being the Villain

An Junxi harbored hostility towards Yuan Yuan, not liking her being too close to herself, to the point that she didn’t trust drinking the water Yuan Yuan poured for her.

She wondered if she was overthinking it, considering talking to the head nurse but was worried that her words might ruin someone’s future, which would make her uneasy.

An Junxi endured the discomfort in her heart. When there were only she and the head nurse in the examination room, the head nurse said, "Yuan Yuan and Madam get along quite well, no wonder she wants to apply to enter the delivery room."

"What do you mean apply to enter the delivery room?"

The head nurse explained more in detail, "On the day of Madam’s delivery, she wants to follow in. I didn’t agree; she isn’t qualified yet. I arranged based on professional codes. Madam’s delivery is a top priority, and no negligence is allowed."

An Junxi asked, "Did she ask for it proactively?"

"Yes."

An Junxi felt a chill down her back, almost certain that Yuan Yuan had malicious intentions. What exactly is Yuan Yuan’s purpose?

At this moment, Yuan Yuan pushed the door open and brought in a cup of water, saying, "Madam just found the water a bit cold, so I replaced it with a heated one. See if this is drinkable."

An Junxi had no intention of drinking the water poured by her. A thought suddenly popped into her mind. She reached out to take it before thinking it through.

Yuan Yuan said with a smile, "Drinking more hot water is good for warming the body."

As soon as An Junxi’s hand touched the cup, she withdrew it, "Hot!"

Yuan Yuan thought Madam had taken the cup; she let go, not knowing Madam hadn’t held it steadily. The cup fell onto An Junxi’s thigh and then onto the floor.

An Junxi cried out in pain from the scald. The head nurse immediately stabilized Madam, "Madam, don’t move, we’ll handle it!"

The head nurse ordered someone to get the medical kit. Yuan Yuan reacted professionally; she picked up the scissors from the table to cut Madam’s scalded clothes, "Madam, don’t worry. I’m truly sorry; I thought..."

The head nurse pushed her aside, "You stand aside!" Is this woman causing trouble intentionally? How will she explain to the president if Madam is injured?

Two nurses brought the medical kit. The entire department became chaotic. Everyone was terrified since they knew how protective the president was of Madam!

Yuan Yuan stood in the corner, not daring to move. Why did it turn out like this? She thought Madam had held the cup well. Why did she suddenly let go?

Gu Yikun came out of the hospital director’s office. Hearing the nurse say, "Madam was scalded by hot water," his heart tightened. He rushed to the department with the director swiftly.

He only walked away for a moment; how could she get scalded?

The head nurse cut open An Junxi’s clothes. Luckily, it was winter, and she was wearing many clothes. There was a coat outside, blocking the water, which had lost its temperature by the time it seeped to her legs.

Her skin was originally fair; her thigh, scalded and reddened, looked quite serious.

"Xi Xi, how are you?"

Gu Yikun hurried to her side, seeing her thigh’s reddened skin, his face turned cold instantly.

The director stood behind the president, trembling. The president’s wife getting scalded in the hospital was a severe dereliction of duty no matter what!

The head nurse examined the affected area. The burn was not severe, applying burn ointment, "Madam, this will feel a bit cool."

Gu Yikun sat beside An Junxi, holding her hand, "Does it hurt?"

An Junxi said, "It doesn’t hurt, just gave me a scare."

Both her hands tightly grabbed his wrist, her face still showing signs of fear.

Gu Yikun’s face darkened further. He watched the head nurse finish treating the burn, then asked coldly, "What exactly happened."

The director followed up, asking who was negligent. Yuan Yuan stepped forward, "President, Director, I was just pouring water for Madam..."

Gu Yikun ignored her explanation, "You won’t need to come here anymore."

Everyone was terrified. The president truly had no leniency!

Yuan Yuan pleaded to An Junxi, "Madam, you know it was unintentional. I just wanted to pour water for you!"

An Junxi turned her head aside, tugging at Gu Yikun’s sleeve, "Yi Ke, it’s noisy here. Let’s go home, okay."

Yuan Yuan was stunned hearing Madam’s words. What did Madam mean, not willing to help her?

The director, being smart, immediately had someone take Yuan Yuan away. Yuan Yuan still wanted to plead, but other nurses, fearing she might spark the president’s anger that could affect them, together pulled her out.

The director assured the president, "President, this employee will no longer appear in our hospital. Similar incidents will not happen again. Please forgive us!"

The head nurse, understanding self-preservation well, said, "I examined Madam. The burn is not severe. Applying burn ointment for two days will suffice. Mainly, Madam was startled, and she needs emotional adjustment back home."

Gu Yikun asked, "Who else is on the same shift as Yuan Yuan?"

An Junxi tugged her husband’s sleeve, "Yi Ke, there’s no one else."

She deliberately didn’t hold the cup firmly, just wanting a reason to dismiss Yuan Yuan.

She had encountered too many such women. If she didn’t eliminate future troubles now, it would be endless danger. She couldn’t let Yuan Yuan stay in the hospital and easily have access to herself, it was too dangerous. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

She was pregnant, and considering the child, she couldn’t take any risk. She didn’t mind being a villain this once.

Merely dismissing Yuan Yuan wasn’t enough to quell Gu Yikun’s anger. His icy aura was as overwhelming as Mount Tai. He said, "Hospital management negligence, I think it’s time to replace the director."

The director almost wanted to resign in apology. He didn’t want to retire yet!

An Junxi didn’t want to implicate others. She tugged at his fingers, "Husband, let’s go home. Don’t be angry. It doesn’t hurt."

Gu Yikun, distressed for her, said, "It doesn’t hurt you, but I was really scared."

An Junxi let the director go busy. The director gratefully thanked Madam and quickly slipped away.

Gu Yikun sighed, "Xi Xi, you’re just too kind."

He carried An Junxi back to the private room, changed her clothes, and took her home.

Gu Yikun returned home, still with a stern face, saying there needs to be a thorough overhaul of the hospital’s work environment. Liang Huiyun heard about An Junxi being scalded by a nurse in the hospital and immediately called to scold the director that night.

Everyone at home was worried about her. An Junxi felt extremely guilty, wondering if what she did was too bad?

New Year’s Eve arrived quickly. An Junxi was influenced by the festive atmosphere, no longer thinking about the incident, gradually forgetting about Yuan Yuan.

The reunion dinner was sumptuous. The driver picked up Mr. An and Mrs. An. Gu Kuangyuan also came back with Cheng Ye for dinner. The family sat together in the hall, feeling very warm.

Gu Kuangyong showed a bit of a good face towards his sister but still remained cold to Cheng Ye.

Gu Kuangyuan did not ask anymore why his brother didn’t like Cheng Ye, as long as she knew she hadn’t chosen the wrong person.

Little Ai Xi experienced spending New Year with so many people for the first time. Knowing she’d receive a big red envelope when she woke up the next day, she excitedly ran around the house, "I grew a year older, and I get a red envelope!"

Gu Jingxiu wasn’t interested in red envelopes. He wanted to play with fireworks, "Mommy, can I play with fireworks?"

An Junxi asked her husband to take the two children outside to play, "I’ll watch you from inside the house."
