No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Qin Muxuan hid Elderly Lady Gu behind her so that most of the petrol was scattered on her body.

Elderly Lady Gu was a little stunned. She didn’t expect Qin Muxuan to do this. When Qin Muxuan pushed Yan Yuxiao away so that Yan Yuxiao wouldn’t slap her, she felt that it was inconceivable enough, and it was not a matter of life and death.

But now at such a critical moment, if Yan Yuxiao really ignited the petrol, the one with more petrol on the body would die faster. Why did Qin Muxuan do this?

It seemed that she couldn’t see the lighter in Yan Yuxiao’s hand and her gaze fell on Qin Muxuan’s tensed and slender back.

She looked down upon someone like Qin Muxuan. Not only did she have no shame and give birth before she got married, but she kept pestering her excellent grandson. She had to break them up. Therefore, she didn’t regret what she had done five years ago, even if her grandson treated her indifferently ever since.

But at this moment, Elderly Lady Gu felt somehow regretful.

She believed that Qin Muxuan must hate her for what she had done to her, but Qin Muxuan didn’t hesitate when she stopped Yan Yuxiao to slap on her face. It was as if she did it subconsciously. Was it because Elderly Lady Gu was the grandmother of the man she loved, or was she purely kind-hearted?

No matter why it happened, Elderly Lady Gu was unquestionably swayed.

Qin Muxuan didn’t know what was Elderly Lady thinking about. She stared at the lighter in Yan Yuxiao’s hand with her hands pressed down. She didn’t even dare to breathe too loudly, as she was afraid that she might provoke Yan Yuxiao. If Yan Yuxiao let go of the lighter in her hand, they would all die.

What should she do? What could she do?

Now she could only try to buy some time in the hope of Gu Zijin coming to rescue them. It had been a few hours since she disappeared, so Gu Zijin must have noticed it. She only hoped that he could find her as soon as possible.

The more urgent it was, the calmer Qin Muxuan was.

She softened her voice and comforted Yan Yuxiao. She tried her best to avert her gaze away from Yan Yuxiao’s trembling hand. She looked into Yan Yuxiao’s eyes sincerely, “Miss Yan, actually I’ve always wanted to ask you this question: Why do you hate me so much?”

Yan Yuxiao’s mouth opened and then closed. She wanted to say something, but Qin Muxuan interrupted her, “I think it’s because of Gu Zijin, right? I know that you love him, so you hate me for always being by his side. Have you ever thought that…?”

Her voice became softer and she pretended to be mysterious. “Actually, I stayed by his side just to take revenge on him?”

“Re…venge?” Yan Yuxiao had been too excited, and now she was quiet. She showed a little bit of confusion and weakness.

Qin Muxuan’s voice was so gentle that Yan Yuxiao couldn’t help but follow her trace of thoughts. “Why would you do that? He loves you so much.”

Two streams of tears fell down from Yan Yuxiao’s eyes. “If he loved me the way he loves you, it would be great.”

Qin Muxuan smiled. “Really? What’s so good about him? Look, for him, I got hurt and almost died five years ago. And now, your family is ruined, and you even resort to crime.”

As she said that, she slowly approached Yan Yuxiao.

Yan Yuxiao was stunned and allowed her to get closer and closer.

“We should work together and retaliate against him, right?” Qin Muxuan asked. Her voice was like a devil from hell which was enticing Yan Yuxiao.

“Work together… to retaliate… ”

Qin Muxuan’s fingers were about to touch Yan Yuxiao’s fingers. She could even feel the heat of the lighter.

“Yes, we should work together. We can’t hurt each other. We have the same goal.”

Yan Yuxiao looked determined, “That’s right. We should take revenge on Gu Zijin. We have the same goal!”

At that moment, Qin Muxuan deftly snatched the lighter from Yan Yuxiao’s hand, extinguished the flames and held it in her palm.

Because the lighter had been working for a long time, the iron shell was burning hot, but Qin Muxuan didn’t dare to let go.

Yan Yuxiao was stunned by her action. “Why did you take my lighter?”

She suddenly looked ferocious, pounced on Qin Muxuan fiercely and shouted, “You were lying, weren’t you? You just wanted to take the lighter away!”

Qin Muxuan retreated in panic, but she forgot that the ground was covered with slippery petrol. Before she knew it, she slipped and fell down.

Yan Yuxiao then pressed down on her.

Yan Yuxiao gripped Qin Muxuan’s wrist hard. All her strength pressed down on Qin Muxuan while her other hand tried to prise Qin Muxuan’s clenched fist open.

Qin Muxuan didn’t dare to let her succeed. She used all her strength and the blister in her hand caused by heat broke while she was struggling, and a piercing pain came from her palm.

The two young women fought against each other on the ground. Elderly Lady Gu finally understood what was going on here.

She knew she couldn’t let Yan Yuxiao get the lighter, or they would all be dead.

Elderly Lady Gu grabbed Yan Yuxiao’s clothes tightly, “You b*tch, get up!”

“You want to burn me to death! Bah! In your dreams!”

…

The scene was chaotic.

The pungent smell of the petrol seemed to get stronger and stronger. Qin Muxuan felt that she was losing her physical strength. She didn’t eat much during the day as she was recording for the show. And for the past few hours, she had been kidnapped and frightened, and now she was fighting. Her legs and feet had long gone limp. It was her strong will that made her grab the lighter tightly in her palm.

Just as she felt dizzy and was about to let go of…

“Bang!”

The huge noise stopped the three people from what they were doing.

And before she knew it, Qin Muxuan felt Yan Yuxiao’s body being lifted up from her body. Then Yan Yuxiao’s body was slammed into the wall and the sound of her body colliding with the wall sounded quite painful to Qin Muxuan.

She fell into a warm embrace and looked up to see Gu Zijin’s anxious and remorseful face.

“Xiao Xuan, I’m sorry. I’m late,” Gu Zijin’s voice was hoarse and he almost choked on the sob welling up in his throat.

Qin Muxuan wanted to raise her head and touch his face, but she only had time to say “I’m fine.” Then she blacked out.

When Gu Zijin knew something was wrong at the TV station, he drove the car at full speed and rushed here with his subordinates.

He left his subordinates to deal with the people outside and kicked open the tightly shut door.

In the strong smell of petrol inside the room, his face went as white as a sheet; however, the sight of the people fighting on the ground put his mind at rest.

Thankfully, Qin Muxuan was still alive and she was not badly hurt.

Gu Zijin took fast steps, grabbed Yan Yuxiao and threw her away without mercy.

Feeling the warm body in his arms, he felt that his whole body had gone limp.

He hugged Qin Muxuan tightly and tears coursed down his cheeks.
