Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 88 Emotions Are a Gamble

An Junxi admired Lv Jing’s courage. This woman had almost pushed her down the stairs at the hospital, and she hadn’t had time to settle accounts with her. Now, Lv Jing was seeking her out again.

This kind of person is a typical troublemaker.

An Junxi would never let herself be wronged, she would definitely have to settle this score with Lv Jing.

She answered the phone, asking rudely, "What’s the matter?"

Lv Jing said, "Mr. Gu came to the hospital to see me today. I admit that I pushed you. Just imagine what Mr. Gu’s reaction was."

This question hit a nerve with An Junxi, but she didn’t rush to ask, waiting quietly for Lv Jing to continue.

Sure enough, Lv Jing couldn’t wait to say, "He said it wouldn’t happen again. An Junxi, I thought Mr. Gu had something special with you, but it turns out it was just a warning."

An Junxi was indeed very disappointed. Did Gu Yikun just let Lv Jing off like that?

She hung up the phone, imagining how smug Lv Jing must be on the other end.

An Junxi felt frustrated. She took a shower with a heavy heart, and when she came out, Gu Yikun hadn’t returned to the room.

She went to the study to find him, hesitating at the door when she saw Gu Yikun still reading documents, unsure whether to disturb him.

Gu Yikun had noticed her presence from the moment she arrived. After waiting for a while and seeing she hadn’t come in, he thought something might be wrong.

Looking up at the doorway, he saw his young wife with a face full of hesitation.

He quickly finished reading the remaining documents, got up, and walked towards her, "What’s wrong?"

He gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and bent down to pick her up, carrying her to the room.

An Junxi had gotten used to being carried by him. She wrapped her arms around his neck, gazing intently at his determined profile.

Such a man would indeed attract many women.

She chose to marry him, and she would have to deal with more women like Lv Jing in the future. She began to feel a bit insecure.

Gu Yikun placed her on the bed, "I’m going to take a shower." He was afraid to touch her too much, fearing he wouldn’t be able to stop.

An Junxi nestled on the bed, "Okay, I’ll wait for you."

Gu Yikun gave her a quick kiss on the lips, picked up his pajamas, and went to take a shower.

He finished quickly. This time, it was An Junxi’s turn to help him blow dry his hair. Gu Yikun initially wanted to tease her, but seeing her lack of enthusiasm, he finally realized something was wrong.

He took the hair dryer from her and set it aside, pulled her back onto the bed, and asked, "Are you feeling pressured about meeting the family’s elders?"

An Junxi shook her head and tentatively said, "Yi Ke, when I was in the hospital, I was nearly pushed down the stairs by Lv Jing, did you know? You were not in the country at that time, and the news outside kept getting more and more exaggerated. I didn’t dare go anywhere, desperately wanted to call you but feared disturbing your work. Now I’m your wife, but I still feel like it’s all a dream. I’m scared that one day I’ll wake up and you’ll revert to how you were before, and the old you felt really distant from me."

Gu Yikun held her tightly in distress, "Silly girl, you are my wife for life, the closest person to me. Why think about these things?"

Leaning against his chest, An Junxi felt somewhat at ease upon hearing his words.

She knew she could never compare to Lv Mo. Lv Mo had known him during his prime, had fallen in love with him during his youthful wild days. In his memory, Lv Mo would always be the most beautiful. In this, she could never compare.

So now, Gu Yikun was still very lenient towards Lv Jing, which was very dangerous. Lv Jing’s call reminded her of this.

She could only show a bit of her vulnerability in front of Gu Yikun, to make him focus more on her, gradually occupying his heart.

Feelings are a battle. Seeing Gu Yikun’s attitude towards her, An Junxi knew she was doing the right thing.

Gu Yikun proactively explained to An Junxi, "I went to see Lv Jing today and warned her not to do it again. Jun Xi, if it were anyone else, I would have been harsher, but Lv Jing is Xiao Mo’s sister, I..."

"I know, Yi Ke, it’s okay."

An Junxi’s understanding and forgiveness deeply moved Gu Yikun. He gave her a deep kiss and promised, "I will only have you from now on, no one else."

Finally, a smile appeared on An Junxi’s face.

The next day, An Junxi went to work on time. Her colleagues warmly welcomed her back to the team. An Junxi brought snacks and fruits for everyone, "Thank you all for your hard work while I was on vacation."

"Jun Xi, being so polite is not like you!"

"Exactly, now you are President Gu’s girlfriend, soon to be the Young Madam of the Gu Family! Truly enviable."

Embarrassed, An Junxi smiled, "What Young Madam? It’s not that quick."

Lin Yuanqing said, "You must seize the opportunity well. We are all counting on you, the Young Madam, to take care of us in the future!"

An Junxi couldn’t stand them, "So much food and it still doesn’t keep your mouths shut. If you don’t want to eat, I’ll take it back."

"No, no, we’ll stop talking, is that okay?"

An Junxi finally let it go. She looked towards the office, "Why hasn’t the boss arrived yet?"

He Tian leaned closer to her and said, "The boss has been acting strange these past two days, always forgetting things. Do you know why?"

"How would I know?" Everything was still normal when her senior sister called yesterday!

Just as An Junxi was about to call her senior sister, Gong Xiaoyu called her. She answered, "Senior sister, I’m at the company."

On the other end, Gong Xiaoyu’s voice was unusually low, "Jun Xi, I’m at the high-speed rail station. Can you come over?"

Hearing the unusual tone in her voice, An Junxi told Lin Yuanqing and grabbed her bag to head out, "Senior sister, what are you doing at the high-speed rail station?"

"Come here and I’ll tell you." Gong Xiaoyu hung up the phone.

An Junxi started to worry. She quickly went out to get a taxi. While in the car, Lv Jing called her, asking her to pick something up at the square.

An Junxi couldn’t be bothered with her. In her eyes, Lv Jing was just a clown, and engaging with her was a waste of time.

As the taxi approached the high-speed rail station, Housekeeper He called her, "Jun Xi, I’ll bring you lunch today. I made your favorite dishes." Madam had instructed that Jun Xi shouldn’t frequently eat outside, and it was best to bring food from home.

An Junxi casually found an excuse, "No need, Housekeeper He. Lv Jing asked me to discuss something. I won’t be at the company this noon."

"Oh, okay."

At the station entrance, An Junxi soon found Gong Xiaoyu. The first glance at her senior sister terrified her, "Senior sister, why do you look so lost? What happened?"

Gong Xiaoyu’s eyes were unusually vacant. After a long while, she asked An Junxi, "Do you have your ID card?"

"I have it."

"Give it to me."

"Senior sister..."

Before An Junxi could stall, Gong Xiaoyu rummaged through her bag, grabbed her ID card, and went to the self-service ticket machine to buy two tickets to Yicheng.

An Junxi was bewildered, and before she could react, her phone was snatched by Gong Xiaoyu who turned it off, saying, "Jun Xi, accompany me for a walk."

An Junxi was dragged onto the train without understanding what was happening. As the train started, she began to panic. Could it be that this was an impromptu trip? If she suddenly lost contact, Yi Ke would go crazy not being able to find her!
