Chapter 344: Xiaoxin’s Curiosity
When Lisa saw Xiaobai and Xiaoxin walk out of the room, she hurriedly walked up to them, “Little Master, Miss, why not come with me and wait for President Gu and Miss Qin in the car?”
Xiaoxin shook her head without hesitation. “No, I’ll wait here til Mommy comes out!”
Embarrassed, Lisa looked at the closed door, “But there’s something for President Gu and Miss Qin to deal with. I don’t know when they will come out. Let’s get in the car and wait for them there, okay?”
Though Lisa had handled situations much trickier than this, when she said this in front of these two children, she still almost blushed. Although it was impossible for Xiaobai and Xiaoxin to understand what she really meant, she still felt extremely awkward.
Naturally, Lisa said that out of her trust in her boss. She believed that her boss could last very long in certain aspects!
Xiaoxin heard what Lisa said but she didn’t waver. She shook her head firmly, “I won’t get in the car. I’m worried about Mommy. I’ll wait for Mommy here!”
Seeing how perseverant Xiaoxin was, Lisa felt a little helpless. She could only compromise, “Then let’s go to the adjoining room and wait for President Gu and Miss Qin there. I promise that we’ll know it as soon as they’re done.”
Xiaoxin was a bit hesitant, but she was too worried about Mommy. She really wanted to see Mommy as soon as possible.
Xiaobai knew what Mommy and Dad were doing. It was not good for a child to stand at the door, so when he heard Lisa’s proposal, he took Xiaoxin’s hand and walked to the next room. “Alright, I’m so tired standing here. Let’s go and wait for Mommy in the next room”
Seeing Xiaoxin walk away from the door, Lisa finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now, she could only pray that the boss and Miss Qin would not be too loud so that no inappropriate sounds would be heard in the next room.
Xiaobai and Xiaoxin sat in the next room for a while, and pretty soon they started to feel bored. So Lisa had someone bring a tablet from the car so that they could watch TV to pass the time. Who knows how much longer it would be before the boss was finished.
At this time, the voice from the next door gradually became louder. Lisa stared at the ground and pretended not to hear it, but secretly she wondered why on earth she had to sit through this while she was at work.
Xiaoxin also heard something. She recognized that it was Mommy’s voice, and it was something she hadn’t heard before. She was both worried and curious, so she hurriedly jumped off the chair and ran outside to check it.
Xiaobai quickly stopped her. “Xiaoxin, what are you doing?”
“That is Mommy’s voice. I’ve never heard of it. Did something happen to her? I want to go and see!”
Xiaobai looked at her sister, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. It was impossible for him to explain it to her. Besides, she wouldn’t understand even if he did, so he had to put on a stern face and pretend to be serious, “Xiaoxin, Mommy and Dad are dealing with something really important. Don’t go and disturb them. If they need us, they will tell us to go in there. But now they haven’t asked us and if we sneak inside and take a peek, it won’t be right. Do you understand?”
Seeing how serious Xiaobai was, Xiaoxin totally bought every word he just said. She nodded and sat back on the chair.
Seeing Xiaobai talking to his sister as if he were an adult, Lisa suddenly felt like laughing.
At this moment, her subordinate had brought the tablet to the room. Xiaobai showed Xiaoxin a cartoon. Xiaoxin’s attention was immediately attracted and she could not hear anything else.
On the other hand, Lisa continued to look at her own nose, telling herself that she should stay as calm as water. President Gu gave her such a high salary, so she had to endure this kind of torture.
The sound from the next room lasted for nearly two hours. It was only when Qin Xuan’s voice was completely hoarse that Gu Zijin stopped. At this moment, Qin Xuan was exhausted and fell asleep in his arms.
Gu Zijin looked at the beautiful side face of Qin Xuan’s as well as her fair and flawless skin, feeling quite satisfied. After all, had it not been for this occasion, Qin Xuan would not have been so proactive.
However, when he thought about how the woman who was sleeping so peacefully in his arms had almost been raped, Gu Zijin’s face instantly darkened.
A cold glint flashed across Gu Zijin’s eyes. However, he still stood up and gently helped Qin Xuan put on her clothes and carefully carried her out.
When she heard the door in the next room opening, Xiaoxin run out at once. Seeing Gu Zijin carrying Qin Xuan in his arms, worry was immediately written all over her face. “What’s wrong with Mommy? Uncle, why are you carrying her like that? Is she okay?”Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Gu Zijin gave Xiaoxin a comforting smile, “Your mommy is fine. She’s just too tired, so she slept . She’ll wake up pretty soon.”
When she heard Gu Zijin say that, Xiaoxin was not that worried, but she was still confused. “Uncle, did you play hide-and-seek with Mommy in there for two hours? Every time Mommy and I play hide-and-seek, I’ll get exhausted.”
First Xiaobai and now Xiaoxin, it was the second time that Gu Zijin was made speechless by a child, and this child was his daughter.
Seeing his boss unable to reply, Lisa almost laughed, but she forced herself to hold it back. Still her shoulders shook uncontrollably, and the bodyguards nearby didn’t even dare to raise their heads.
Hearing his sister’s silly question, Xiaobai couldn’t help but smile. He touched Xiaoxin’s head and said in a sincere and earnest way, “You’re so silly and cute!”
Xiaoxin looked at her brother with bewilderment and the smile on Xiaobai’s face became bigger. “Come on. I meant you were so cute!”
When Xiaoxin heard his explanation, she knew that her brother was praising her and smiled shyly.
Gu Zijin glanced sideways at Lisa, whose shoulders were still shaking. Sensing the boss’s sharp gaze, Lisa quickly straightened her face. She asked seriously, “Boss, what should we do with Yan Yuxiao?”
Hearing this, Gu Zijin’s and Xiaobai’s faces darkened at the same time and they said, “Whoever dares to touch my woman/mommy, they’re dead meat!”
Lisa curled her lips. An apple never fell far from the tree. The father and the son had the same thoughts and they were both so resolute. She replied, “Yes, Boss, I’ll order someone to get rid of her immediately!”
When Gu Zijin heard those words that came out of Xiaobai’s mouth, he looked at him with surprise, but then a hint of appreciation appeared in his eyes. He was indeed his own son, and he was as decisive and domineering!
Xiaobai held Xiaoxin’s hand and smiled at Gu Zijin, “Dad, let’s go. Mommy is so tired. Let’s take her back so she can have a good rest!” And the way he said it made Gu Zijin think that he was teasing him.
Gu Zijin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. His son was really too sophisticated for his age.
Carefully, Gu Zijin carried Qin Xuan into the car and he gently touched her cheek. Then he ordered Lisa, “Take them back first. There’s something I need to deal with!”
“Yes, Boss!”
Looking at Gu Zijin’s expression, Xiaobai felt his father’s anger, so he said to Gu Zijin, “Dad, good luck! Teach those who bullied Mommy a good lesson!”
Facing his son’s trusting gaze, Gu Zijin felt warm in his heart, but he only nodded slightly, and then he turned around, got into another car and left.
In the car, Gu Zijin did not hide his anger anymore. He was going to talk to Gu Heng, his father!
