Chapter 6: A Head-On Blow at The First Encounter
Even after five years had passed, she still couldn’t directly look at his cold eyes when he stood in front of her.
“Don’t have any fancy that you are part of this family because you live here. You’d better not have any improper imagination, or I will drive you out!”
A frosty voice came up above her head, showing piercing coldness.
There was a slight tremor on Qin Muxuan’s face. Before this guy, she didn’t want to explain anything, because he would not believe her words.
“Mr. Gu, please don’t worry. I will just accompany Xiaobai for two months. I know what I should and shouldn’t do.”
This “Mr. Gu” full of respect lengthened the distance between them. Gu Zijin flew into a rage somehow and snorted, “Remember what you said today.”
After saying that, he turned around and left. In this big living room, there was only Qin Muxuan. The atmosphere was depressing, making it hard to breathe.
Not until Xiaobai went downstairs with Elderly Lady Gu and Mrs. Gu, did the feeling disappear. Xiaobai ran up to her full of excitement, “Dabai, see, do I look handsome?”
Qin Xiaobai wore a white T-shirt, with Gu’s brand logo on it, matching light blue jeans and black canvas shoes. This set of simple casual wear made Qin Xiaobai look like a Korean.
All clothes were specially designed at the requirement of Elderly Lady Gu. Being part of the Gu family meant that everything should be exquisite.
“Of course. Our Xiaobai looks perfect in any clothes.” Qin Muxuan was really happy.
“Xiaobai, are you hungry? Great-grandma has prepared a big meal for you. Shall we go for dinner?” Elderly Lady Gu said graciously.
“Great! Mommy, let’s go for our dinner.”
He held his mother’s hand and came to the dining hall with Elderly Lady Gu and Mrs. Gu. Just at that moment, Gu Zijin arrived, too. Xiaobai sat beside his father and on the other side was his mother.
“Daddy, I’m so happy to have dinner with you. In the past, there were just mommy and me. Too boring.” It was just like that he ate honey and every word he said was so sweet.
A loving look appeared on Gu Zijin’s face and he also felt sorry about Xiaobai’s words. He said softly, “I will always be with you in the future.”
He knew that he owed his son a lot. In future days, he would make up for the lost time and wouldn’t miss anything in his son’s growth.
“Great!” Xiaobai nodded happily.
Elderly Lady Gu and Mrs. Gu kept putting food in Xiaobai’s plate, and asking him what he liked. Xiaobai was really smart. He told his great-grandma not only what his favorite food was, but what his mother liked.
However, Elderly Lady Gu didn’t look at Qin Muxuan at all as if she didn’t exist. All her focus was on Qin Xiaobai.
Qin Muxuan didn’t care about that. After all, she didn’t want to have any tie with the Gu Family, and wasn’t good at pleasing the inessential people. All her purpose here was to accompany her baby.
After dinner, Xiaobai wanted Gu Zijin to play with him. Elderly Lady Gu said, “Xiaobai, stay here and play with your daddy. I will talk with your mother in another room.”
Gu Zijin raised his head and looked at Elderly Lady Gu with a meaningful look.
“Ok, great-grandma, be careful please.” Xiaobai’s warm words made the smile on Elderly Lady Gu’s face even brighter.
However, when Elderly Lady Gu turned around, the smile had gone into thin air. She walked ahead arrogantly with a poker face full of wrinkles.
Qin Muxuan was a little nervous. She followed Elderly Lady Gu, then closed the door and stood in front.
Elderly Lady Gu took a check out of her handbag and handed it to Qin Muxuan. With a glance, Qin Muxuan saw several zeros on it, so the value must be large.
“This is 2 million yuan. Take it and leave the Gu Family and never connect with us again. If you want to see your son… Once a week, ok?”
Qin Muxuan sneered at Elderly Lady Gu. ‘Does she want to buy my son with 2 million yuan? It is totally humiliation.’
“Elderly Lady Gu, I know you are rich while I’m poor. But I don’t care about the money. I promise I will live in the Gu Family just because I want to accompany my son more! That’s all!”
Elderly Lady Gu was bored with such words. Up to now, she had not seen any woman who was not interested in the wealth of the Gu Family.
“How can you make me believe you?” Elderly Lady Gu asked dismissively. Qin Muxuan’s words proved even more clearly that she was scheming and wanted to gain long-term interest. Elderly Lady Gu thought she had seen through Qin Muxuan’s trick.
Qin Muxuan clenched her teeth, “Now I can’t prove it, but time can. I will let all of you know that I’m here just for Xiaobai.”
“We’ll see.” Elderly Lady Gu patted on her legs and stood up to leave. Her idea was made clear and there was no need to waste time with this woman.
On the next morning, Qin Muxuan got up early and made breakfast for Xiaobai. Xiaobai got used to having a fried egg and two slices of whole-wheat bread with a sausage. Sometimes, she would add some vegetables which Xiaobai didn’t like, since they were simple but could provide balanced nutrition.
Then she went to Xiaobai’s room and woke him up, “Hey, Xiaobai, it’s time to wake up. Have your breakfast and we will go to the kindergarten.”
Qin Xiaobai rubbed his half-opened eyes and moved his heavy body. Then he unwillingly sat up, “Dabai, I’m so sleepy.”
“I have cooked breakfast for you. Please get up quickly or you will be late for school!”
Finally, with the help of Qin Muxuan, Qin Xiaobai got up, and washed his face and brushed the teeth. When they got out of the room, Elderly Lady Gu and Mrs. Gu were already sitting at the dining table.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
“Xiaobai, did you have good sleep last night? Did you feel uncomfortable?” Mrs. Gu joyfully asked. The sight of her grandson would make the whole day happier.
“Yes, I had good sleep and am unwilling to get up.” Qin Xiaobai sat beside his grandma. At this moment, Qin Muxuan took breakfast to him.
“Madam, I… I have specially prepared bird’s nest soup with tremella and oatmeal…”
The baby-sitter seemed a little awkward. She put the breakfast she made beside Qin Muxuan’s cooking on the dining table, which showed a sharp contrast.
At this time, Elderly Lady Gu said in an overbearing tone, “Qin Muxuan, do you just make breakfast like this? Do you know he is growing? No wonder Xiaobai is so thin!”
While saying that, she softly touched Xiaobai’s forehead and looked sympathetic. Qin Xiaobai looked up at his great-grandma, and pouted, “No, Great-grandma. You are wrong. I like the bread and fried egg my mommy makes for me and I think those are nutritive food.” He retorted seriously.
Then he looked at his mother with the head aslant, “Mommy, you make the best breakfast. I don’t like congee and I want the breakfast you made.”
