Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 616: Do You Like Me Like This?

An Junxi couldn’t understand her father’s words, and Gu Kuangyuan didn’t understand what his older brother meant either.

Had her older brother changed his mind and accepted her being with Cheng Ye?

Gu Kuangyuan wanted to probe her older brother’s thoughts, but in the end, she didn’t say anything.

Today was supposed to be a happy day, and she didn’t want to bring up unhappy topics to ruin the atmosphere.

She and her older brother were more than ten years apart; her brother had been frequently shuttling between the United States and here recently, and he looked much more weathered.

Gu Kuangyuan felt a bit sad. An older brother is like a father. Her father passed away early, and her brother had always treated her like a daughter. Now, it was as if they were strangers. It was impossible for her not to feel hurt.

An Junxi really missed Uncle Cheng. Why didn’t he come into the hotel? Her father should let go of these grudges by now.

She knew that her aunt was feeling the worst at this moment. She said, "Auntie, can you help me hold Jing Yue?" The child could shift her aunt’s focus and make her less worried.

Gu Kuangyuan was, of course, willing. She really liked this little one. "Sure."

Gu Kuangyuan carefully took Jing Yue into her arms. This was the first time Jing Yue was being held by her, and he didn’t feel unfamiliar at all. His little face calmly looked at her.

The child’s innocent big eyes made Gu Kuangyuan forget her worries. She used her fingers to play with him and found him more and more adorable.

An Junxi said, "Ai Xi and Jing Yue both really like auntie. This is their first time being held by you, and they didn’t reject you at all. Auntie, you really have a way with kids."

Gu Kuangyuan thought that seemed to be true. When she met Ai Xi at the hospital, the little guy was afraid of his grandparents but not of her.

Her heart became unusually soft, and she looked up at Cheng Ye.

Cheng Ye was looking at her, too. She was holding the child and smiling so gently, like a spring breeze, which made him a bit dazed. If they had a child too... Cheng Ye quickly dismissed the thought and pretended to look elsewhere nonchalantly.

Gu Kuangyuan felt disappointed. Didn’t he like children very much?

Gu Kuangyuan hinted at him, "Honey, don’t you think Jing Yue is very cute?"

Cheng Ye responded indifferently, "Hmm, cute."

Gu Kuangyuan felt unengaged. Her husband lacked any sense of romance, thinking about work all day, and he was increasingly perfunctory towards her.

Cheng Ye had met several partners from law firms. Before the banquet ended, he said to Gu Yikun, "We’re heading back."

An Junxi wanted them to stay longer, "I haven’t had much chance to chat with auntie."

Gu Kuangyuan wanted to stay a bit longer too since she really liked Jing Yue and couldn’t bear to part with him.

Cheng Ye handed the child to An Junxi and said, "The law firm has some things to take care of. Next time, I’ll bring Xiao Yuan over to see you."

Gu Kuangyuan knew her husband was busy, so she said goodbye to her brother and sister-in-law.

Her brother and sister-in-law were neither cold nor warm towards her. Cheng Ye didn’t want his wife to be treated indifferently, so he held her hand and said, "Let’s go home."

Gu Kuangyong watched Cheng Ye’s back and said, "This guy has quite an ego." The tone had a slight tinge of appreciation and didn’t sound overly harsh.

An Junxi couldn’t figure out what her father meant. Did her father like Cheng Ye or not?

Gu Kuangyuan and her husband drove home. As their car exited the parking lot, they passed a white car at the intersection.

The woman in the car stared at the hotel from across the street, with her laptop screen showing a headline: "Mrs. Gu gives birth to a little prince," alongside a photo of An Junxi.

The woman tapped the screen, "An Junxi, you had a second son. Everyone’s busy congratulating and flattering you. Have you forgotten about me?"

She let out a few cold laughs and said, "We will meet. Just wait."

The woman instructed the driver to start the car, and it merged into the busy traffic.

Cheng Ye dropped Gu Kuangyuan at home. "I’ll go to the firm for a while. Wait for me at home."

Gu Kuangyuan was on vacation recently. She wanted to go out and relax with her husband, but he was busy with work.

She knew her husband’s law firm was expanding its business, so it wasn’t a good time to insist on going out. He asked her to stay home, and she didn’t throw a tantrum. "When will you be back?"

Cheng Ye said, "A bit late. You sleep first."

He kissed her forehead before leaving. Gu Kuangyuan stayed home looking at fashion design sketches, finding something to do even while resting.

Time passed unknowingly, and in the evening, Cheng Ye called her and asked, "Have you eaten?"

Gu Kuangyuan realized how late it had gotten. "No, the maid took leave and didn’t come to cook."

She quickly added, not wanting to affect her husband’s work, "I’ll order takeout."

Cheng Ye paused his work, "Don’t eat takeout. I’ll come back and cook for you."

Feeling embarrassed, Gu Kuangyuan said, "Honey, if you’re busy, you don’t need to..."

Cheng Ye said firmly, "Wait for me."

Gu Kuangyuan waited at home for him, thinking that her husband still took good care of her, except they had some differences on the issue of having children.

He used to love children very much, but now it was a complete change. When she brought up the topic, he no longer responded enthusiastically, making her anxious.

Could her husband have issues with fertility?

Thinking it over, she found it unlikely. Cheng Ye was younger than her by a few years, healthy, and all his check-up results were fine.

Cheng Ye came back soon with fresh vegetables. He took some ingredients from the fridge and quickly prepared three dishes and a soup.

Gu Kuangyuan had a small appetite and was a bit picky. She loved her husband’s cooking, which wasn’t easy to achieve.

With the food ready, Gu Kuangyuan wanted to help serve the rice. Cheng Ye didn’t let her move, "I’ll do it."

She sat at the dining table waiting. Her husband, impeccably dressed in a suit, was cooking for her in the kitchen—something others probably wouldn’t believe about Lawyer Cheng at home.

Isn’t a husband like Cheng Ye the home every woman dreams of? She hadn’t married the wrong person after all.

Cheng Ye served her a bowl of soup. "Drink the soup first."

Gu Kuangyuan said, "Honey, why don’t you teach me how to cook?"

Cheng Ye immediately refused, "With me cooking for you, there’s no need for you to learn. At home, you’re the young lady. Even after marrying me, you can remain the young lady, and I’m happy to take care of you."

Gu Kuangyuan murmured, "I feel useless, not being able to help you with anything."

Cheng Ye gave her some food, "Stay by my side and let me see you every day, that’s enough."

Gu Kuangyuan felt touched by her husband and thought about making the first move tonight.

In their marital life, she was quite reserved. She wanted to learn to be bolder.

After dinner, Cheng Ye cleaned up and went to his study. Gu Kuangyuan changed into a sheer nightgown and waited for him in the bedroom.

When Cheng Ye finished his work and came in, he froze at the doorway.

What was his little wife planning tonight?

Feeling nervous, Gu Kuangyuan boldly hugged him, "Honey, I want... you."

Cheng Ye, full of youthful vigor, couldn’t resist her teasing. He lifted her and said, "Xiao Yuan, have you turned naughty?"

Gu Kuangyuan helped him unbutton his shirt, "Do you like this side of me, honey?"

Impatient with her slow movements, he laid her on the bed, quickly undressing himself, "I like it, very much." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

He reached for a condom on the bedside table, but Gu Kuangyuan stopped him, "Honey, not tonight."
