Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO
Chapter 251: Deadly Temptation
CHAPTER 251: CHAPTER 251: DEADLY TEMPTATION
An Junxi’s words made Zhang Miaoyan’s heart race. Should she try to fight for him one more time? Is there still a chance?
She still remembered the first time she told him she liked him, and how cold his attitude was.
How could she go and try again?
Gong Xiaoyu complained, "Why should Miaoyan try again? He should be the one making the first move this time."
Zhang Miaoyan didn’t know what to do, "He doesn’t even like me. How could he possibly make the first move?"
An Junxi asked, "Are you so sure he doesn’t like you?"
Zhang Miaoyan looked out to the terrace, his figure came into view. The distance between them seemed so far, "He just sees me as a nanny."
Gong Xiaoyu chuckled mischievously, "Why don’t we test him a little?"
Zhang Miaoyan didn’t agree. What’s the point of testing someone who doesn’t even like her?
An Junxi showed interest, "Isn’t Yang Chenmin from Wanling Entertainment interested in you? You should just go on a date with him and see how Xie Yuchen reacts."
Zhang Miaoyan said uneasily, "It’s not good to use someone else’s feelings like that. Last time I lied to him, he was angry for a long time. If I do this again..."
Gong Xiaoyu clapped her hands, "If he’s angry, it means he cares. He must be jealous."
An Junxi nodded, "I totally agree."
Zhang Miaoyan never thought of it that way, "How could that be?"
Gong Xiaoyu said, "That’s definitely it. We won’t be wrong. You are a newbie in love and should listen to us."
An Junxi agreed, "We’ll test him later."
Gong Xiaoyu got excited, "It’s settled then."
Zhang Miaoyan saw the two of them preparing to cause trouble, and she panicked, "No, I’m not mentally prepared for this."
An Junxi said, "Neither is he. That’s how you’ll see the real effect!"
Zhang Miaoyan drank a few sips of water and patted her cheeks, "How are you going to test him?"
An Junxi told her to stay calm, "Just follow our lead later."
They chatted like this for a while, and then Gu Yikun and the others walked into the hall. An Junxi saw them sit on the sofa nearby with the corner of her eye. She cleared her throat and asked Zhang Miaoyan, "Miaoyan, you’re not getting any younger. Why don’t you find a boyfriend?"
Xie Yuchen quietly listened, hearing Zhang Miaoyan’s low reply, "There’s no suitable person."
An Junxi said earnestly, "Yang Chenmin is quite good. I’ve met him. He’s capable at work and handsome. Isn’t he pursuing you? Think about it."
Gong Xiaoyu added, "Next time he asks you out, just agree. You need to spend more time together to develop feelings!"
Zhang Miaoyan dared not look in Xie Yuchen’s direction. She lowered her head. Seeing her wimp out, Gong Xiaoyu pinched her thigh, signaling her to follow the script.
Zhang Miaoyan spoke against her conscience, "He is indeed nice. I’ll try."
An Junxi was very satisfied with Zhang Miaoyan’s performance, "If you try, there’s a chance. If you like Ai Xi so much, imagine how cute your baby would be if you got married!"
The more Xie Yuchen listened, the darker his face became. He had wanted to develop things slowly so she could get used to him, but he had overlooked the bad influence of her two friends.
Yue Xiaoyang knew Xie Yuchen liked Zhang Miaoyan, and he had been watching Xie Yuchen’s expression. This was better than a show.
Seeing Xie Yuchen lose his cool upon hearing Zhang Miaoyan being urged to marry, he joined in, pushing Zhang Miaoyan’s head, "Idiot, you need to seize the opportunity. If you don’t like Yang Chenmin, tell me what kind of guy you do like. I know lots of eligible bachelors and can introduce you."
Zhang Miaoyan saw Yue Xiaoyang joining the fray and didn’t know how to answer. She felt like Xie Yuchen was staring at her.
She nervously said, "I...I need to pay for my house, I can’t afford to get married right now."
Young Master Yue collapsed on the sofa, thinking, what kind of move is this? Calling her a pighead was spot on!
An Junxi and Gong Xiaoyu were about to be driven crazy by her. They threw a cushion at her, "Can’t you have a bit of ambition? You still want to find a man who needs you to pay for the wedding? Isn’t that being a freeloader?"
Suddenly, Xie Yuchen stood up, "We should head back."
He walked over and grabbed Zhang Miaoyan, saying in a bad mood, "Let’s go, we’re leaving."
An Junxi and Gong Xiaoyu exchanged glances, winking at Zhang Miaoyan, signaling her to seize the moment and push forward.
Zhang Miaoyan could see that Xie Yuchen was angry. She was a bit stunned. Could this be the jealousy Jun Xi and the others were talking about? Does it seem like it?
Seeing her hesitation, Xie Yuchen coldly said, "Or do you want to stay here and discuss whether to marry Yang Chenmin and have his child?"
An Junxi almost burst out laughing. She was 100% sure that Xie Yuchen liked Zhang Miaoyan. She wanted to tell Young Master Xie to speak his mind directly, as being so reserved wouldn’t help him win her over!
Under Xie Yuchen’s questioning, Zhang Miaoyan completely chickened out, "No, I never thought about marrying and having a child with him."
Gong Xiaoyu facepalmed; no backbone at all! chickening out so quickly!
Xie Yuchen still looked grim, "Let’s go back."
He kicked the sofa where Yue Xiaoyang was lying, "Young Master Yue, are you staying over?"
Yue Xiaoyang struggled to get up, "No, I’ll go home with Xiaoyu."
Tonight, he planned to take advantage of his drunken state to ambush, so of course he needed to go home and carry out his plan.
He pretended to be dizzy, "Xiaoyu, help me."
Gong Xiaoyu mumbled, "Who told you to drink so much?" But still went to help him up. She said, "We’ll go home first. Jun Xi, Yi Ke, you two should rest early too."
Zhang Miaoyan also picked up her bag and said goodbye to them. An Junxi and Gu Yikun saw them off to the parking lot. An Junxi secretly gave Zhang Miaoyan a cheering gesture and whispered, "Looking forward to your good news."
Zhang Miaoyan was scared to death at this point, not daring to hope for any good news. Xie Yuchen was really angry!
The four of them got into Yue Xiaoyang’s car. Gong Xiaoyu drove. An Junxi told her to drive slowly, "Come over and play next time."
"Alright, go back. The baby might be waking up."
An Junxi watched the car drive away before she went upstairs with Gu Yikun. Xiao Luo had finished cleaning and went back to his room. The nanny was still in the baby’s room.
Gu Yikun went to the study, and An Junxi checked Gu Jin’s homework, telling him to go to bed early.
Gu Jin wouldn’t go to bed until he checked on his sister in the baby’s room. An Junxi took him to the baby’s room. Gu Aixi was sleeping soundly.
"Your sister is asleep. You should go to bed early too."
Gu Jin returned to his room reluctantly, "I’ll play with my sister tomorrow."
An Junxi kissed him on the forehead, "Good night."
"Good night, Mommy."
An Junxi closed the door and went out. After taking a bath, she carried the child upstairs. She and Yikun had added a children’s bed to their room, intending for Aixi to get used to sleeping in it.
"Nanny, you should get some rest early as well. You’ve worked hard today."
The nanny said, "Aixi has been asleep for so long. She might not sleep through the night. If she wakes up, I’ll take care of her, so you and Young Master won’t be disturbed."
Just as the nanny finished speaking, Gu Aixi woke up in An Junxi’s arms. An Junxi smiled helplessly, "She’s awake. I’ll have to tire her out to get her to sleep again."
An Junxi placed the baby on the large bed and let the nanny go downstairs to rest.
Gu Yikun came over from the study. Seeing the Young Master approaching, the nanny went downstairs, "You two should sleep early as well."
Gu Yikun played with their daughter for a while. An Junxi told him to take a bath first, "Playing with her like this will make her less likely to fall asleep."
Touching his nose, Gu Yikun took his pajamas and went into the bathroom. An Junxi tickled their daughter, "Aixi, baby, you’re being naughty."
Gu Aixi giggled, "Baby’s good, baby’s good."
Mother and daughter had a lot of fun playing together. After a while, Gu Aixi got hungry. She instinctively reached to open her mommy’s pajama, "Drink milk."
Gu Yikun came out just in time to see An Junxi’s pajama pulled down to her shoulders, exposing her chest, bringing a strong visual impact.
His throat went dry. How long had it been since he touched her? Her already impressive bust seemed to have grown even more, a truly fatal temptation for him.
Gu Yikun’s Adam’s apple bobbed up and down, and he suddenly felt very hot.
