CHAPTER 419: CHAPTER 419: STILL GOING TO HURT FOR HIM

Gu Yikun didn’t sleep all night, and early in the morning he was already at the company, attending two consecutive meetings.

Senye Group lost an agency contract. This wasn’t the first time Senye failed in front of the Gu Family. Yin Handedong secretly united with other rivals. Gu Yikun was starting to take a second look at Yin Handedong.

Zha Zhuoxin reported to the president, "Yin Handedong has been frequently contacting the Five Great Families recently. I confirmed from He Zhi Lei that Yin Handedong is indeed trying to win over rivals. We still don’t know what conditions he’s offering."

Gu Yikun said, "It doesn’t matter what conditions he’s offering. Yin Handedong wants to change the game rules now, but he doesn’t realize who the rule-maker is."

Zha Zhuoxin felt a chill at the back of his head. Yin Handedong, being older, couldn’t see the situation clearly and wanted to play tricks right under President Gu’s nose. Was he being overly optimistic?

"President, should I go and..."

"Let him be. I want to see what kind of chips Yin Handedong will bring to the table to negotiate with me."

He completed the meeting and returned to his office. Secretary Wang followed behind, reporting the upcoming schedule, "President, I will send today’s meeting decisions to the United States branch once I have them sorted out, and also..."

Gu Yikun opened his desk drawer, looked inside, and asked, "Where are my stomach meds?"

"I haven’t touched them," Secretary Wang said, "President, is your stomach acting up again?"

She carefully observed the president’s complexion and realized that he indeed looked worse today.

Since his wife came back, the president hadn’t had a stomach ache. Why today...? Secretary Wang said, "I’ll go buy some right now."

An Junxi was preparing food in the break room. Hearing the conversation outside, she walked out and said, "No need to buy, I threw them all away."

She crossed her arms, looking cold and clearly angry.

Gu Yikun was pleasantly surprised but noticed his wife’s expression wasn’t good. He became a bit more cautious, "Xi Xi, when did you get here?"

Seeing the lady boss come out of the break room, Secretary Wang was surprised but composed. She organized the documents and left, "President, Madam, I’ll go back to work."

After Secretary Wang left, Gu Yikun tried to hug her, but An Junxi turned and walked back into the break room, "Follow me."

The president quickly turned into a compliant underling. His wife’s anger meant he had to adapt or face the consequences.

Gu Yikun followed his wife into the break room. As soon as he entered, he smelled the aroma and saw that there was porridge and side dishes on the table, all good for the stomach. He excitedly said, "Xi Xi, did you specially bring this to the company for me?"

Warmth filled his chest; no matter how angry she was, his little wife still cared about him.

An Junxi didn’t give him a pleasant look. Gu Yikun sat down at the table and picked up the chopsticks, only for An Junxi to slap his hand.

Gu Yikun, feeling wronged, asked his wife for permission, "Isn’t this for me to eat?"

"Go wash your hands."

Gu Yikun obediently went to wash his hands. When he came back and sat down, An Junxi placed a cup of warm water in front of him, "Drink water."

Gu Yikun realized that drinking warm water before eating was good for the stomach.

He held her hand, "Wife, you’re so good to me."

An Junxi shook his hand off, "Drink."

The president didn’t dare to joke around anymore. He picked up the cup and took two big gulps. An Junxi coldly said, "Drink slowly."

Gu Yikun slowed down. After he finished the water, he placed the cup on the table and asked for permission, "Can I eat now?"

An Junxi sat across from him, "Go ahead."

Gu Yikun hadn’t had breakfast and was a bit hungry. He started eating while quietly watching his wife’s expressions, looking like a small, obedient wife.

Despite his tall and proud appearance, his current expression was somewhat...cute.

An Junxi held back her laughter. He used to scold her, but now the tables had turned.

After finishing his food, Gu Yikun wanted to clean up, "Let me do it."

An Junxi didn’t touch the dishes anymore. She sat on the sofa and turned on the TV, while the president cheerfully cleaned up the dishes, in an attempt to show his remorse. He even washed the dishes.

When had President Gu ever done such chores?

An Junxi watched his reactions, stayed for a while, and then got up, "I’m heading home."

Gu Yikun quickly came over and hugged her, "Don’t go, will you stay and keep me company?"

An Junxi said, "President Gu is so busy, skipping breakfast to get to work. How would I dare take up President Gu’s precious time?"

Her words carried a hidden sharpness.

Gu Yikun realized she was still angry. He lowered his head to kiss her, but An Junxi turned her face away. Gu Yikun held the back of her head and forcefully kissed her.

An Junxi was furious; he always did this!

No, she couldn’t succumb like this!

An Junxi wanted to resist, but in terms of strength and technique, she was no match. She quickly got lost in his kiss, her arms wrapping around his shoulders.

Gu Yikun hugged her waist and placed her onto the bed.

Feeling the soft mattress, An Junxi snapped back, "No way..."

Gu Yikun, breathing heavily, tried to undress her, "Xi Xi, you didn’t come home last night, I couldn’t sleep all night."

An Junxi held onto her clothes, "If you keep this up, I’ll go stay with my parents. Didn’t you say you’d let me rest for ten days? You clearly don’t care about me."

Gu Yikun remembered her physical condition and calmed down, holding her close. "Wife, how could I not care about you? I’ll endure a bit more."

An Junxi hummed, "I’m still angry."

Gu Yikun kissed her cute earlobe and coaxed her, "Xi Xi, after Xiao Yang’s incident, Yu Chen and I had to keep the news suppressed, monitor Tengxia Industrial, and find a renowned medical team. The company also has a lot going on. It was hard to focus on many things, so I didn’t tell you."

An Junxi had already forgiven him in her heart. She wanted to use this opportunity to make him remember that they were a couple and he should trust her the most. Any issues should be communicated with those nearby.

A lack of communication between a couple could lead to growing apart.

An Junxi didn’t want them to become like that.

She said, "Don’t keep these things from me in the future. Hubby, it makes me feel useless and like a failed wife."

Gu Yikun promised her, "I won’t do it again, really."

An Junxi rested her face against his chest. She didn’t sleep well alone last night, either.

Her husband’s embrace was much more comforting.

Feeling her dependence, Gu Yikun ran his long fingers through her hair and said, "Let’s go home today, okay?"

An Junxi said, "I already took Ai Xi home. Our daughter was looking for her dad this morning."

Gu Yikun was deeply touched, "Our little princess is such a caring little cotton jacket."

An Junxi cupped his face, "Gu Yikun, if this happens again, I will..."

Gu Yikun sealed her lips, "It won’t. You can’t leave me, not even for a day."

An Junxi bit him, and Gu Yikun didn’t dare to resist, "When did my wife turn into a little wild cat? Don’t bite my face. It wouldn’t look good in front of the subordinates."
