Chapter 393: Why Are You Looking at Me?
“You… Why are you looking at me? Look ahead!” Qin Muxuan stammered as she stared at Gu Zijin and her voice became fainter.
Gu Zijin snorted coldly and decided to let her go for now, but secretly, he was planning to punish Qin Muxuan when they got home. He had to make sure that she knew exactly who her man was!
Sensing that Gu Zijin had looked away from her, Qin Muxuan let out a long breath and muttered in a low voice, “You’re driving. You need to keep an eye on the road…”
Xiaoxin was sitting in the back seat. She craned her head out of the car to see if Brother Xiaobai was coming. And she was also listening to what Qin Muxuan was saying. However, her dear mommy’s voice was too low, and she couldn’t hear it clearly, but she was very curious and had to know what her mommy just said.
So, Gu Zijin and Qin Muxuan heard their lovely daughter asking loudly:
“Mommy, what did you just say? I couldn’t quite make it out.”
As she said that, she even tilted her head in a cute manner. “Are you whispering to Papa so that I couldn’t hear it?”
Qin Muxuan’s face instantly turned red. When Gu Zijin heard how cute Xiaoxin sounded, he laughed softly. He looked at Qin Muxuan and teased her:
“Our daughter had asked a question. What did you just say?”
It was rare for Qin Muxuan to see Gu Zijin smiling so happily, not to mention that he was actually playing a joke with her. That was quite rare!
For a moment, she stared at Gu Zijin’s smiling face in a daze. She completely forgot that Xiaoxin was still waiting for her response.
The moment Xiaobai opened the door, he saw his mom blushing in her seat. Her eyes were starry and he could not help but support his forehead.
“Mommy, wake up. You look so silly.”
Qin Muxuan came to her senses and quickly withdrew her gaze. She was so embarrassed that she didn’t dare to raise her head.
However, the tips of her red ears had betrayed her. Seeing how shy and embarrassed she looked, Gu Zijin was overjoyed. He couldn’t resist the impulse in his heart. And he leaned over, lowered his head and gently bit Qin Muxuan’s ear. Then, he stared at Qin Muxuan’s increasingly red face with her eyes as watery as a lake, he felt quite pleased and finally let her go.
He sat straight, started the engine and drove away quickly.
Xiaobai, who was sitting in the back row, covered Xiaoxin’s eyes helplessly and he wanted to complain about it.
“Dad, did you forget that there are two children in the car?”
Gu Zijin pretended not to hear it. He concentrated on driving without even looking at Gu Xiaobai.
Qin Muxuan could not care about Xiaobai and Xiaoxin right now. She only felt that the car was too stifled, and she was about to suffocate.
Gu Zijin watched Qin Muxuan constantly fan her face from the corner of his eye and carefully put down the car window.
After that, Qin Muxuan felt like she was going to faint.
She had never felt that the journey home was so long before!
The moment the car stopped, Qin Muxuan couldn’t wait to open the door and jump out of the car.
Aunty was preparing dinner in the kitchen and when she heard the car, she came out to welcome them back. When she saw Qin Muxuan enter, she immediately greeted her.
“Madam, you’re back…”
“What happened?”
The auntie looked at Qin Muxuan’s back as she ran away and asked Gu Zijin who walked in right after her.
Gu Zijin smiled without saying a word. He sat at the dining table in a leisurely manner and started eating.
Gu Xiaobai shook his head, sighed, and sat down together with the confused Xiaoxin.
“Dad, aren’t you gonna ask mommy to come down for dinner?”
Xiaobai also picked up his chopsticks and started to eat. The range and angle of his movements were exactly the same as those of Gu Zijin’s.
Gu Zijin gave Xiaoxin a piece of ribs. “There’s no need for that. If she is hungry, I will make some food for her later.”
Qin Xiaobai put a drumstick into Xiaoxin’s bowl, “What if mommy won’t tell you that when she gets hungry?”
Gu Zijin was stunned. He put down his chopsticks and couldn’t help laughing, “You’re quite right. Then I’ll ask our handsome Xiaobai to do me a favor.”
“Humph!” Gu Xiaobai proudly raised his head and mentioned his condition: “I’ll do it only if you buy me a garage kit of the Spider-Man!”
“Okay, no problem. Whatever you want!” Gu Zijin promised hurriedly.
Xiaobai took a mouthful of rice and sighed again while pretending to be mature, “Ah, you adults, you are really childish.”
At this moment, Qin Muxuan was hiding herself in the room. She covered herself up with a soft quilt and rolled frantically.
“Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh…”
“Why did he suddenly become so flirtatious?”
“Qin Muxuan! You are better than this!! Calm down. Just calm down!”
Qin Muxuan got out of the quilt and patted her face hard. She ran to the bathroom and splashed cold water on her face. It took a long time to really cool down.
Looking at her wet face in the mirror, Qin Muxuan looked fierce at herself and warned herself, “Qin Muxuan, you have to control yourself. You can’t get turned on so easily!”
With that, she nodded and clenched her fists to cheer herself up. “Mmm, you can do it!”
After all that, Qin Muxuan started to think about something else.
Gu Zijin got jealous so easily, especially of Yin Youting. Qin Muxuan felt that she needed to talk to him about this.
What should I say? That Yin Youting and I are just friends? You are the only one I love.
No way! Qin Muxuan quickly shook her head and wanted to get the idea of her loving Gu Zijin out of her mind. And then she paused.
So, subconsciously, she admitted that she loved Gu Zijin?
She remembered Gu Zijin’s proposal again. Since she had confirmed that she loved Gu Zijin, did it mean that she should say yes to it?
Unconsciously, Qin Muxuan left the bathroom and sat down by the bed, sinking into deep thought.
She and Gu Zijin loved each other but there were too many obstacles between them.
Elderly Lady Gu was dead set against it. Gu Zijin’s father humiliated and misunderstood her. Yan Yuxiao constantly stopped them from being together…
Qin Muxuan felt extremely powerless whenever she thought about these.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
And…and, Gu Zijin and Yan Yuxiao’s marriage. The marriage certificate they shared was like a needle stuck in Qin Muxuan’s heart. She couldn’t pull it out or talk about it. It would only gradually bleed and rotten her heart.
Why was it so difficult for them to be together? Was it that difficult for her to have a stable and happy family?
The more Qin Muxuan thought about it, the sadder she became. In the end, she couldn’t help but sob and everything in front of her started to get blurry.
My medicine! Where is my medicine?!
Qin Muxuan stood up and wanted to look for her medicine, but she felt weak. She flipped through several places and couldn’t find the medicine. Finally, her eyes were shut and she lost consciousness completely.
