Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 123 I Think She’s Great

An Junxi looked at Gu Yikun, who didn’t seem to be joking, and quickly pushed him away. "Let’s go inside and greet the guests."

Gu Yikun remembered something and said, "We haven’t held a wedding yet. I wanted to find a good time to gather everyone and officially introduce you to them. I didn’t expect Qian Nuan to gather everyone today."

This made him seem like he didn’t value her very much. He was displeased, and Gu Qianlan was really getting more and more presumptuous.

"It’s okay, it’s all the same."

"You are so understanding, it makes me feel guilty. Xi Xi, you can be willful in front of me."

An Junxi laughed without much good humor. "I didn’t expect President Gu to enjoy being mistreated?"

"Only my dear wife has that privilege."

"Then I am truly honored."

They chatted and laughed as they walked back into the hall. Yue Xiaoyang found a moment to ask An Junxi, "Xiao Yu left so early. Is she alright?"

An Junxi didn’t show Yue Xiaoyang a friendly face. "If you want to know, go ask her yourself."

Yue Xiaoyang, feeling rebuffed, slumped back on the sofa to drink silently.

Gu Yikun and the men were chatting, while An Junxi took care of Zhang Miaoyan and Liu Zhiwen.

Liu Zhiwen said, "Jun Xi, last time we met, you were still taking our graduation photos. In just a few months, you’ve become Mrs. Gu. When Qian Nuan told me, I couldn’t believe it!"

An Junxi felt a bit awkward. "We registered in a hurry and don’t plan to go public for now."

Liu Zhiwen looked at her as if she were a rare creature. "Why? Marrying President Gu is such a happiness! Anyone else would have informed the media and let everyone witness their wedding!"

Zhang Miaoyan also smiled and said, "The Young Madam is really low-key."

She occasionally turned to look at the reception area. Gu Yikun was sitting on the sofa talking with Yue Xiaoyang. At any time, the young master looked like a noble who existed light-years away from ordinary people.

Such an excellent man now had a wife by his side.

Zhang Miaoyan drank another glass of wine, and her face started to flush.

An Junxi, seeing Zhang Miaoyan drink quite a bit, worriedly advised her, "Miaoyan, don’t drink too much; it’s not good for your health."

"This wine is very low in alcohol, it’s fine."

Liu Zhiwen glanced at the reception area and said, "If you really get drunk, Brother Yue can take you home."

An Junxi tentatively asked Zhang Miaoyan, "Miaoyan, now that you’re staying at the headquarters, are you planning to buy a small apartment?"

Zhang Miaoyan said, "I’m considering it, planning to buy a small apartment to live in for now. After all, I’m alone."

The down payment for an apartment was something she could manage. Through Yue Xiaoyang’s connections, she could also get a good discount.

Yan City’s housing prices were not low. Compared to cities in the United States with similar levels of development, Yan City’s prices were much higher. She could only consider a small apartment.

An Junxi said, "Then when you live alone in the future, take good care of yourself."

Zhang Miaoyan smiled, "I have a strong sense of independence. After all, I’ve been living alone for many years. My mother died when I was very young. Many relatives were unwilling to take me in and sent me to the orphanage. If it weren’t for Uncle Gu’s support, I don’t know where I would be now."

Liu Zhiwen felt this was an inspiring story. Her eyes were moist. "Sister Miaoyan, you are really strong." She had always lived in a well-off family and never had to worry about anything. She never imagined Miaoyan had lived such a hard life before.

An Junxi always admired hardworking and motivated girls. She also said, "Fortunately, you made it through. Now you’re doing well in the Gu Family, and your life will only get better in the future."

Zhang Miaoyan seemed to recall some sad memories. She covered her face with both hands and sobbed, "Young Madam, I don’t have many friends in Yan City. Can I come to you more often to chat in the future?"

An Junxi felt a bit troubled, remembering her mother’s advice to stay away from Zhang Miaoyan. But how could she refuse in this situation?

She said, "Sure, you can call me Jun Xi. Don’t call me Young Madam; it’s awkward."

Zhang Miaoyan’s eyes lit up. "Really?"

"Really."

Zhang Miaoyan hugged her. "Thank you, Jun Xi."

An Junxi patted her back.

Zhang Miaoyan leaned on An Junxi’s shoulder, a strange smile slowly forming on her lips.

Gu Qianlan and Yin Feibai were outside barbecuing. After finally cooking some corn, Qian Nuan brought it inside, seeing Liu Zhiwen chatting with the other two. She walked over angrily, "Zhiwen, why are you just talking to irrelevant people? Come help me."

Gu Qianlan didn’t sound polite at all, making Liu Zhiwen a bit embarrassed. She said to An Junxi, "I’m going to help with the grilling. I’ll make something for you too."

An Junxi said, "Go ahead. I’ll go check on Jin Xiu." He and Cheng Ye had gone to the pool, and she didn’t know how they were doing.

Gu Qianlan watched An Junxi’s back, feeling angry. She had already taken her brother, and now she wanted to take her friends too?

From then on, Gu Qianlan clung to her brother, almost not letting An Junxi get close.

An Junxi could see Gu Qianlan’s provocation but didn’t mind. She thought it was just a childish rivalry, hardly worth concerning herself with.

She and Zhang Miaoyan played with Gu Jinxiu. Xie Yuchen observed from a distance and said to Gu Yikun, "I thought you had married some socialite, but it turns out to be Jin Xiu’s tutor."

When Jin Xiu was kidnapped, he had heard An Junxi’s name. Thanks to her information, they had narrowed down the location to Fire Phoenix Mountain.

Remembering how Xiao Yang often mentioned "President Gu’s niece," and seeing An Junxi playing with Jin Xiu like a kid herself, Xie Yuchen found it quite amusing.

No wonder, despite a failed marriage, Gu Yikun so decisively registered the marriage certificate. It was mainly because of who she was, right?

No, his marriage with Yin Yue couldn’t even really be called a marriage.

Gu Yikun’s eyes followed An Junxi, his eyes full of gentle smiles. "I think she’s great."

Yue Xiaoyang said, "Could you stop showing off your love?"

An Junxi originally planned to play until Sunday before going home. With the gathering almost over, Mrs. An called. When Mrs. An heard that her daughter really wanted to stay out and play for two days, she started to lecture her, "Your mother-in-law allowed you two days to have fun, and you really want to take it? Come home tonight, young lady. Your mother-in-law is in a bad mood; as a daughter-in-law, you should show more care."

An Junxi sweated. "Alright."

She suddenly thought about how Jin Xiu had never spoken to her mother and said, "Mom, I’ll let Jin Xiu talk to you."

She handed the phone to Gu Jinxiu. "My mom, call her Grandma."

Gu Jinxiu clearly called, "Grandma!"

On the other end, Mrs. An felt her heart melt hearing that. She quickly switched to a video call and, seeing Gu Jinxiu’s cool and handsome face, smiled broadly. "Jin Xiu, right? You’re really handsome."

Gu Jinxiu didn’t mind this new grandmother he hadn’t met before. He held the phone and chatted with her. Then, Mr. An joined in, and Gu Jinxiu showcased his eloquence, making the two elders very happy.
