No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

As Qin Muxuan arrived at home and put her key away, Qin Xin complained.

“Mommy, you’re late.” Qin Xin abandoned a rubber duck in her hands and Yin Youting who accompanied her, lunging at Qin Muxuan. The girl pouted, “I waited for you to have dinner with me, but you didn’t come back!”

Her childish grumble changed Qin Muxuan’s mood. The woman was cheered up.

Qin Muxuan scooped the kid up, smiling at Yin Youting. “Have you eaten yet?” She nuzzled Qin Xin’s nose.

The little girl’s face puckered. “Of course! I also had carrots!” Replied her in a crispy sound.

Qin Xin turned to Yin Youting, asking him to prove her words.

The man grinned, “Yep. Xin’s brave today. She defeated the weird Monster Carrot!”

Holding her head high, Qin Xin was complacent.

“My good girl!” A kiss landed on the girl’s cheek.

Qin Muxuan had played with her daughter for a while. The kid started dozing off. Staring at the man who was putting away toys, the woman felt guiltier.

She opened her mouth, intending to express her thanks. However, Qin Muxuan couldn’t do it.

Although she had extended her thanks a thousand times, she still couldn’t pay him off. ‘I’m afraid I can’t repay him for the rest of my life…’

Yin Youting was so considerate that he pretended not to notice her complicated emotions. He grinned, “Take her to bed. She has taken a shower.”

“I…”

Before Qin Muxuan could say anything, the man cut in, “Leave here to me.”

Hearing that, Qin Muxuan had no choice but take Qin Xin to their bedroom.

The woman turned around as she stopped at the door, “Good night.”

Yin Youting beamed, “Good night.”

Holding Qin Xin in her arms on bed, Qin Muxuan tried to fathom her love life.

However, she became more confused.

A sigh sneaked out of her mouth. The woman closed her eyes, forcing herself to fall asleep.

Qin Muxuan was roused by the phone bell in the early morning of the second day.

As she picked up the phone, words bombed at her.

“Muxuan! You and Gu Zijin are on the trending!” Jian Xi roared.

Qin Muxuan who was half asleep suddenly sobered up. She jumped from the bed, “What?”

“God! It’s hard to explain. In short, you’ve made the news. The video is on trending. Check it and tell me how to handle that.”

Qin Muxuan’s face turned grim. Clenching her phone, she logged in Weibo to check the video on an iPad.

It was about her going to Gu Zijin’s house last night. Comments were hostile. Paid posters could be seen everywhere. They scolded her by labeling her a home wrecker and a vixen. In addition, they called her bitch, asked her to go to hell and planned to chase her out of the industry.

Reading these comments, Qin Muxuan narrowed her eyes. She revved up her thoughts.

‘Social media will seek Gu Zijin’s permission before they release information about him because of his current social status. Besides, he’s always kept his nose clean and never gotten involved in any sexual liaison. If he knew that before, he wouldn’t have let them publicize it.’

‘If there’s anyone who are powerful to do this…’

‘That will be her.’

Qin Muxuan pulled a long face, “Maintain the status quo. No matter how I respond, they will frame me up. Control those comments and stop them from throwing mud at me…”

As soon as she hung up, Zhang Jiayi called her.

“Qin Xuan, you and Mr. Gu… Deal with that as soon as possible. Time’s not on my side. If you can’t handle that, I will have to find someone else.”

He said in a huff, but Qin Muxuan understood. An actress stuck in rumor would destroy an outstanding work.

She replied softly, “Don’t worry, Mr. Zhang. I’ll address the problem. I won’t implicate our crew in this affair.”

“Okay. You have a scene this morning. Remember to come here on time.”

Qin Muxuan’s grim face turned darker before she ended the call.

Since she had spent these days with the director, she knew he wouldn’t replace her just because of the trending although he was grumpy. ‘Someone must have pressured him.’

‘She plans to destroy me in one shot!’

Qin Muxuan gnashed. After washing up, she was ready to go out.

When she passed the living room, Yin Youting was watching the Morning News. She felt awkward.

Although he hadn’t questioned her where she had been last night, he now realized that she had had dinner with his rival…

The woman rubbed her nose. She was too ashamed to meet him, so Qin Muxuan tiptoed to sneak out of the house. However, Yin Youting detested her.

He pressed the remote to change the channel. No one had expected that it would also be the news about Qin Muxuan and Gu Zijin. The woman twitched her mouth.

Yin Youting didn’t interrogate her. Pointing at the television, he asked considerately, “Do you need my help?”

Qin Muxuan kept shaking her head, “No, I can handle that.”

‘I can’t rely on him every time, let alone I know who’s behind this.’

‘I will ask her to pay me off.’

Yin Youting stared at her without a word.

Before Qin Muxuan could get off the car, she saw photographers and paparazzi besieging the entrance of the filming site. Therefore, she asked the driver to pull over at the rear door. The woman then sneaked in.

As she entered the site, she noticed people were fewer. Usually, the place was crowded. Leading roles were absent today.

Seeing Qin Muxuan, Xu Haiqiao wished to speak but stopped on a second thought. Xu Haiqiao was drawn aside by a grip when she was about to approach Qin Muxuan.

Frowning, Qin Muxuan strode towards the director’s meeting room.

Qin Xiaobai and the director were there.

She hadn’t expected that.

Zhang Jiayi slightly nodded after seeing her. He then came straight to the point, “Qin Xuan, you’ve seen those paparazzi outside, right?”

It seemed that he didn’t need her answer. He continued immediately, “We should stop because of you. You’re one of the investors. We’ll suffer enormous losses in a day. I hope you would deal with that within today, otherwise you’ll be held accountable.”

The crisis was more overwhelming than she had imagined. Qin Muxuan scowled.

The director walked over, patting her shoulder. He sighed, “I’m not a cold man, but your reputation is… They are reluctant to work with you.”

He paused, apologizing, “I’ve gotten my crosses to bear. Hope you can understand.”

With downcast eyes, the woman said, “I understand, Mr. Zhang.”

“You have a day off. Go and address the problem.” The director sighed and left.

Qin Xiaobai slowly approached her, asking concernedly, “Those comments are nonsense. They know nothing. Don’t be angry, Xuanxuan.”

Noticing he was worried, Qin Muxuan was touched. She stroked his head, beaming, “Just some contemptible scoundrels. They’re not worth it.”

The kid frowned unconvincedly, looking straight into her eyes.

Qin Muxuan tapped his head with her knuckle, “Don’t worry about me, kid. I can handle it.”

The child’s brows were knitted harder. He griped, “I’m not an innocent boy.”

Qin Muxuan chuckled. Resting her hands on his shoulder, she led him out, “Let’s go! Enjoy our precious holiday. I’d like to have a fancy lunch with two of you.”

Qin Xiaobai followed her, “Who else will be invited?”

“Your dad.”

“Why?”

‘They are on the trending. She wants to invite my dad. Is she gonna admit that they are dating each other?’

Considering that, Qin Xiaobai raised his brows.

It seemed that Qin Muxuan saw him through. She knuckled his forehead again, “Don’t be stupid. I need to apologize for leaving in advance last night.”

They headed towards the parking lot while talking.

Qin Muxuan didn’t stay low-profile, but drove to meet Gu Zijin at the Gu Group.

While she was on the way, she asked Jian Xi to arrange a press conference this afternoon.
