Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 83 Secretly Married Clan

An Junxi finally coaxed Gu Yikun out of the house, then followed Mrs. Gu to the conservatory.

Mrs. Gu loved the conservatory and spent most of her time there.

Liang Huiyun sat down, but An Junxi didn’t dare to sit and stood there awkwardly.

Seeing An Junxi’s timid demeanor, Liang Huiyun said coldly, "Don’t pretend to be innocent. You promised me something when you left, and now you went straight to register with Yi Ke! Do you even consider my feelings?"

An Junxi lowered her head, "Mrs. Gu, I’m sorry."

"Sit down."

"Mrs. Gu, I can stand."

"Do you want me to look up at you?"

An Junxi quickly sat down.

Liang Huiyun said, "Make tea."

An Junxi saw some of Mrs. Gu’s favorite rose tea on the shelf, took some, and boiled water using the small stove on the table.

There was always spring water prepared here, which made the tea especially fragrant.

Liang Huiyun watched her without a word. An Junxi was so nervous that she couldn’t hold the teacup properly while washing it, and it rolled off the table and fell to the ground.

An Junxi quickly tried to catch it, but in her haste, she bumped her elbow on the table, causing the water pot on the small stove to wobble, nearly spilling.

Ultimately, the teacup shattered completely upon hitting the ground.

An Junxi wanted to kowtow in apology. She knew this tea set was brought by Mrs. Gu from the United States and had been used and cherished for years; it was very valuable!

Now things were really bad. She came to admit her mistakes, but only made things worse!

Seeing this, Liang Huiyun felt a little faint, slammed the table with a "bang," looked at the terrified An Junxi, took a deep breath to suppress her anger, and said, "An Junxi, based on your performance just now, you are absolutely not qualified to enter the Gu Family!"

An Junxi knew she didn’t do well.

She lowered her head, not daring to retort, looking like a well-behaved girl.

Liang Huiyun made herself a cup of tea and calmed down after drinking it. She said, "I won’t hold you accountable for getting the marriage certificate, but you know the Gu Group will hold a press conference next week to announce its development plan for the next two years. At this time, you and Yi Ke’s marriage must not be leaked."

Seeing An Junxi’s confused expression, Liang Huiyun said bluntly, "You still don’t understand? If you were the daughter of a prestigious family, I’d be eager to hold a press conference to announce this good news. But unfortunately, you are not."

"With the Gu Family’s current status, Yi Ke doesn’t need to benefit from a marriage alliance, but he absolutely cannot be dragged down by someone else. An Junxi, you are now Yi Ke’s wife; you should consider his position. If the president of Gu Group married a wife with a mediocre background, he would have to deal with the media in addition to his work. He carries the entire Gu Group; do you want to add unnecessary public pressure on him?"

An Junxi bit her lip. She hadn’t thought it through before, only knowing that she liked him and didn’t want to let go.

She really hadn’t considered everything thoroughly. freewёbnoνel.com

Liang Huiyun continued, "Yi Ke married you in haste to rebel against me. If he knows I oppose your wedding, he’d likely announce it to the media... An Junxi, I won’t pursue the registration issue now, but you must convince Yi Ke to keep your marriage hidden for the next year."

An Junxi was shocked, "Hidden marriage?"

"Yes, apart from the Gu Family, no one can know. I give you a year to improve yourself until you are qualified to stand beside Yi Ke, not behind him. Only then can you appear in public as the Young Madam of the Gu Family."

An Junxi was a bit moved. Though Mrs. Gu kept belittling her, she could hear the compromise in her words.

Mrs. Gu truly cared for her son, but unfortunately, Yi Ke couldn’t see his mother’s goodness now.

She wasn’t wrong. If An Jun appeared in the media now as the Young Madam of the Gu Family, it would indeed be bad for Yi Ke.

At least, she didn’t want to hear people say that President Gu had poor taste in choosing a wife with a mediocre background and abilities.

An Junxi hesitated and said, "I don’t mind a hidden marriage, but how do I convince Yi Ke?"

"That’s your problem. I believe you can find a way. If you haven’t improved in a year, I don’t care how much Yi Ke hates me or if you have children, I will break you two up!"

An Junxi’s scalp tingled, "I will work hard, Mrs. Gu."

"What?"

"I said I will work hard."

"What do you call me?"

"Gu... Mother."

"Hmm, you can go now."

An Junxi walked out with a silly smile on her face. Aunt He, nervously waiting by the door, saw her smiling and curiously asked, "What happened? Isn’t Madam angry?"

An Junxi replied, "Angry, but not that angry." This was really unexpected.

She didn’t say more to Aunt He, took out her phone, and called Gu Yikun. Gu Yikun was in a meeting. When he saw his phone light up with An Junxi’s call, he raised his hand to stop his subordinate from continuing and picked up the phone outside the meeting room, "What’s wrong? Did my mother make things difficult for you?"

"No," An Junxi suddenly felt a bit shy, "Can you not tell anyone about our marriage registration for now?"

Gu Yikun’s heart sank, "Do you want to divorce me?"

An Junxi rolled her eyes, "No! Just don’t tell anyone for now. Come back early tonight, and I’ll explain slowly, okay?"

Gu Yikun didn’t answer.

An Junxi glanced around to make sure no one was around, then softly and coquettishly said, "Please, hubby."

The word "hubby" gave An Junxi goosebumps; it was her first time calling him that!

Gu Yikun couldn’t stand it either. If she were in front of him now, he might immediately fulfill his husband’s duties.

An Junxi covered her face, waiting for Gu Yikun’s response.

After a while, she heard Gu Yikun’s magnetic voice say, "What did you call me? Say it again."

An Junxi looked around nervously and, seeing no one, called him again, "Hubby."

Gu Yikun was very satisfied, "Okay."

An Junxi was about to hang up when he added, "Let Uncle Cheng help you move your things back and just bring the essentials."

Hearing his words, An Junxi thought of the two of them sharing a bed tonight and her heart beat faster, "Okay."

Gu Yikun said, "I’ll hang up now." But he didn’t end the call right away.

In the end, An Junxi hung up first. She stood there with a silly smile for a while before asking Uncle Cheng to take her back to Yuhua Mansion to get her things.

Gu Yikun returned to the meeting room with a smile on his face, making the executives think they were seeing things. What was wrong with the president today?

Was there some particularly good news?

The executives exchanged glances privately but found no answer.

Gu Yikun sat back in his main seat, quickly resuming his serious expression, and said, "Continue."
