No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Chapter 54: Getting Drunk



After the sweet and sour fish had been placed on the table, Qin Xiaobai sat by the table right away with a greedy look on his face. However, Qin Muxuan said that he could only eat when everyone in the family was here, so he had to take back his little hands which had reached the chopsticks and sit there obediently.

Gu Zijin still wasn’t back when dinner was ready. Although Qin Muxuan knew that he had attended a dinner party tonight, she still felt a bit disappointed. Qin Xiaobai who sensed Qin Muxuan’s low spirits said in a tender voice,

“Dabai, the fish you cooked is so yummy. I want to eat this again tomorrow.”

Hearing Qin Xiaobai’s compliment, Qin Muxan felt warm inwardly and said,

“OK.”

Elderly Lady Gu didn’t even look at the fish, but Mrs. Gu was nice enough to take a lot of bites of the dish. After they finished the meal, Qin Muxuan went to help Nanny Chen clean up the dishes. When the sound of stopping the car came through, Qin Muxuan looked out of the window subconsciously right away. As the bright headlight of the car shone on the ground, the person who got off the car was Uncle Chen instead of Gu Zijin.

Qin Muxuan got dazed seeing that. Then she heard Uncle Chen entering the room. As he saw Qin Muxuan in the kitchen, he said right away,

“Miss Qin, Young Master got drunk. Can you help him?”

Got Drunk? Qin Muxuan couldn’t help but frown. She remembered that Gu Zijin had a weak stomach, which made her a bit worried.

She took off the apron and walked out. The back door of the car was still closed. Uncle Chen stood there while wiping the cold sweats on his forehead, saying,

“Sorry to bother you, Miss Qin. You know that Young Master wouldn’t let me touch him because of his mysophobia. When I went to pick him up after the party ended, he was already staggering but still got into the car by himself.”

When Uncle Chen had tried to support Gu Zijin, the latter sent a chill down his spine. Thinking of that, Uncle Chen couldn’t help but get a bit scared. Hearing Uncle Chen’s words, Qin Muxuan also became a bit nervous. She had never seen Gu Zijin getting drunk before. What if Gu Zijin was muddleheaded and threw her out of the car?

After she opened the car door, the smell of alcohol was so strong. Gu Zijin was sitting on the back seat of the car with his eyes closed. However, he kept his clothes very clean and tidy, unlike the other drunk men. Qin Muxuan couldn’t help but say,

“Uncle Chen, is he really drunk?”

Seeing Uncle Chen nodding firmly, Qin Muxuan approached Gu Zijin with doubt. Then she smelt a stronger scent of alcohol. After Qin Muxuan called Gu Zijin’s name a few times, he finally opened his eyes slowly. He looked at Qin Muxuan’s face with a dazed look, seeming even a bit adorable. After a long while, Gu Zijin humphed and then turned away his head.

Qin Muxuan, “…”

She felt her heart was completely softened. This was not the Gu Zijin she knew at all! How could Gu Zijin make such a cute movement and show such a lovely expression! Qin Muxuan reached out her hand to touch Gu Zijin. After she confirmed that he was fine with her touch, she felt relieved and held Gu Zijin up while coaxing him like what she usually did with Xiaobai,

“Good boy, let’s get out of the car first and go upstairs to sleep, ok?”

Gu Zijin shook his head, saying,

“You have to kiss me first.”

What an unreasonable and scampish request! However, there was nothing Qin Muxuan could do with him since he was still drunk. What was more, Qin Muxuan assumed that no one could see them now and that Gu Zijin would forget about everything when he got sober. So she, eyes closed, kissed on Gu Zijin’s cheek and retreated right away.

Gu Zijin compressed his lips with dissatisfaction and pointed at his lips with his long finger,

“Here.”

Qin Muxuan took a deep breath and said slowly,

“Gu Zijin, are you drunk or not?”

“No, I’m not drunk.”

Gu Zijin looked away from her with his head lowered like a kid who made a mistake. Seeing that, Qin Muxuan got softhearted right away and said in a soft voice,

“If I kiss on your lips, you’ll get out of the car with me, right?”

“Yeah.”

Qin Muxuan, with her ears burning a little, closed her eyes and kissed on Gu Zijin’s thin lips quickly before stepping back in no time.

Gu Zijin showed the glimmer of a smile on his face and said,

“Let’s get out of the car.”

Qin Muxuan helped Gu Zijin get out of the car. In the meantime, Uncle Chen couldn’t help but get shocked. This was the first time he saw the drunken young master being persuaded by someone so quickly. Before, neither Elderly Lady Gu nor Mrs. Gu could do anything about him because when Gu Zijin got drunk, no one was even able to approach him.

Qin Muxuan doubted whether Gu Zijin was only pretending to be drunk now. However, he was still walking very unsteadily with almost half of his body pressing on her. Qin Muxuan sighed while thinking, ‘Just imagine you are carrying a pig, Qin Muxuan.’ After she had tried her best to help Gu Zijin upstairs, Qin Muxuan opened the light in the bedroom. Gu Zijin seemed to have regained a bit of his consciousness after getting into the bedroom and could even recognize his bed. Then he fell onto the bed right away and stopped moving.

Qin Muxuan got speechless, thinking, ‘What now?’

“Gu Zijin, take off your clothes. The smell of the liquor is so strong.”

Qin Muxuan sat by the bed, trying to talk to Gu Zijin. However, the latter didn’t have any reaction at all.

Right now, he buried his face in the quilt without moving a bit like a dead pig.

Qin Muxuan stood up in anger. Then she sat beside the bed while wondering if she could sleep on the sofa tonight.

Right now Gu Zijin lay on the bed with his arms and legs stretching out, which left Qin Muxuan no place to sleep. She didn’t want to take off Gu Zijin’s clothes for him since she knew it was rather inappropriate to do so.

What was more, if she really took off Gu Zijin’s clothes, she wouldn’t know how to explain to him the next morning when he woke up.

“Water.”

Gu Zijin said in a muffled voice. Qin Muxuan was afraid that Gu Zijin would be suffocated if he kept lying on the bed with his face down, so she tried her best to turn him over.

Gu Zijin, with his eyes half open, held Qin Muxuan’s hand quickly, saying,

“Hmm… Sleep with me.”

“I’ll fetch you a cup of water.”

However, Gu Zijin didn’t want to listen to her. With his eyebrows knitted, he held Qin Muxuan in his arms right away and then hugged her like a large dog, saying,

“Let’s sleep.”

Qin Muxuan couldn’t move a bit being hugged by him like this. After a long while, she gradually got sleepy and fell asleep in his arms.

The next day, the dim sunlight came through the curtain and sent warmness into the room. Gu Zijin opened his eyes, his face still a bit pale.

Due to the hangover, he had a slight headache and felt a bit dizzy. Then he saw a glass of water and a pill to cure his stomachache in front of his eyes. Qin Muxuan still wore her pajamas with her slightly curly hair hanging down behind her back. She said gently,

“Take the medicine first. Then you can have a bowl of sober-up soup downstairs.”

“Fine.”Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Gu Zijin took the pill and crunched it without drinking the water. Seeing the tired look on Qin Muxuan’s face, he swallowed and said,

“Thanks for taking care of me last night.”

“Don’t drink too much alcohol from now on. You know about the condition of your stomach.”

It was very rare that Gu Zijin didn’t get impatient hearing her discipline,

“OK.” He said.
