Chapter 1023: The Cold-Hearted CEO's Grudging Butler 36
Three days later, Gu Han returned to the country.
As Jin Chen, who had risen from butler to boyfriend, he naturally couldn't refuse to pick him up.
Along with him deplaning were the project team members; on the plane, Gu Han kept thinking, when he sees his little sweetheart, he must stay composed! He can't let his subordinates see him as a joke.
But after thinking that way all the way, when he really saw the boyfriend he had been day- and night-dreaming about for days, all composure and nobility were tossed aside by Gu Han.
He was embraced by Jin Chen into his arms, each listening to the other's heartbeat, as if the longing that had hung in the air for days finally settled with this embrace.
Even the not-so-fresh air in the airport hall turned into the warm feeling of a brief separation and reunion.
Longing was like a silent spiderweb, crawling over every corner of Gu Han's heart.
"Do you miss me a lot?"
Gu Han, still embracing him, lifted his gaze and asked, his eyes shining.
"Yes, I miss you, I really do." Jin Chen pressed his forehead against his, a smile rippling in his eyes, his voice soft and gentle.
On the contrary, such a sincere expression made Gu Han a little shy.
Really, his little sweetheart knows no restraint—he must be crazy in love with him!
Feeling the heat on his face, Gu Han knew he was blushing again, and, embarrassed, he buried himself in Jin Chen's chest, trying to shift the blame onto him.
"You have no restraint at all, and my subordinates are still here."
Jin Chen glanced at the subordinates behind him, who were pretending not to look, then looked back at Gu Han, relaxed his embrace, and said, "Let's just go home first."
Gu Han straightened his body, gave a light cough to signal the subordinates to disperse where they stood.
"Everyone worked hard on this project; go to HR for the bonus, and each of you gets half a month off."
"Wow, Gu CEO, long live!" an energetic employee exclaimed, "Then we're off! Wishing you a wonderful night, Gu CEO~"
A wonderful night…
The composed CEO seemed to conjure a strange image in his mind, his face growing redder, and, embracing his little sweetheart who was watching the show, he strode away.
The driver was already waiting outside the airport.
Only after getting into the car and the partition rising did Gu Han throw himself into Jin Chen's arms again, as if using all his strength.
"It's only been six days."
Gu Han could hardly believe it, saying, "Before, I'd go on business trips for half a month without feeling anything."
Jin Chen gently stroked the back of the person in his arms, smiling, "I feel the same; it's been a long time since I've been apart from Xiao Han."
Gu Han was certain: longing really is a wonderful thing.
Even a CEO who had never been moved before could be won over by it!
"Let me see, has your wound healed?"
Before leaving, what Gu Han worried about most was Jin Chen's arm injury.
Even though Jiang Qiandu had repeatedly assured him that it had scabbed over and wouldn't tear again, nor leave a scar,
but Gu Han couldn't forget the bloody scene he'd seen that night, and he was still frightened.
"It's completely healed." Jin Chen rolled up his sleeve, revealing his arm; the wound's trace was no longer visible, and only upon close inspection could one see a faint pinkish scar, which would fade with time, although it contains a bit of Spiritual Power.
Gu Han gently touched the scar, confirmed it was fine, then placed Jin Chen's hands on his waist and embraced him again.
"Glad you're okay."
The car drove quietly, and the interior atmosphere was warm and tranquil.
Gu Han chatted on and off with Jin Chen, even though he was exhausted and desperately needed sleep.
How could Jin Chen fail to notice his drowsy expression?
He adjusted the seat to a sleeping angle, turned on the car's fragrance, and, holding Gu Han, gently stroked him to soothe, asking, "Didn't you sleep well there?"
Gu Han closed his eyes, lying in his embrace, and murmured a complaint, "I never sleep well on business trips; I've gotten used to it."
No, he now has a boyfriend.
Gu Han secretly hooked Jin Chen's finger, coquettishly shaking it, "You're still my assistant, right? Next business trip, come with me."
With Jin Chen holding him, even a strange hotel and bed shouldn't cause insomnia, right?
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Receiving the affirmative answer, Gu Han smiled contentedly with half-closed eyes and drifted completely into sleep.
As they neared Zhuang Yuan, Gu Han's phone vibrated; Jin Chen picked it up, glanced at it, and the smile in his eyes gradually faded.
They had to go back to the old family home.
It seemed Gu Muxin was already ready.
However, there was no rush.
He still had more important things to do.
After returning home, Gu Han had no time to check his phone messages; before bed he held Jin Chen, kissing and hugging, expressing all his longing and affection.
The result was that the atmosphere grew more and more ambiguous, and they were under the covers…
Gu Han's courage surged; he began to study various hastily learned knowledge, rubbed open Jin Chen's shirt, and went straight for the abs he had long coveted!
He hadn't expected to be the one teased into a flushed face and ears; in the end, his consciousness still thought, "That's not right."
Whose little sweetheart has such stamina!
Even the CEO, whose whole body had gone limp to the point of doubting life, was still completely consumed.
As he entered the bathroom, the CEO was still pondering which step had gone wrong.
How did the one who got eaten clean become him! He wanted to counterattack… …but forget it, he's too tired.
Then he decided to soak in the tub while feeling his abs, which could be considered not wasting his lost title as the CEO's "attack" reputation.
The bathroom lights were bright, able to illuminate everything clearly.
Thus the uninhibited CEO was given another lesson.
That's——after some special occasions, you can't casually touch your lover's abs!
Something big will happen! Wah!
The habitually trash‑talking overbearing CEO Gu Han floated about, being asked to call out husband, dear, and brother, and he shouted them all.
Want to call him "little dear wife"? Sure, then it'll be even more intense…
Late at night, Jin Chen finally put the overbearing CEO, now as red as a cooked shrimp, into the blankets, and from then on completely did away with the term "little dear wife".
Gu Han even felt that he was no longer sleeping on a bed, but on a soft, fluffy cloud.
He let out a sob, threw a leg over Jin Chen, "You're done for!"
But his voice was already hoarse, so even his threats sounded like coquettish whining.
Jin Chen was melted by the cuteness, moved in and kissed again, holding the person tight, "Sleep, wife."
Gu Han: "......"
Who told you to call me that!
Although, indeed, it sounds not bad.
The overbearing butler turned over and burst into song; the poor overbearing CEO had no defense.
Gu Han felt his integrity had shattered all over the ground.
Could only close eyes to sleep, pretending to be very dissatisfied.
Although the upturned corners of the mouth always easily reveal one's thoughts.
He slept very soundly, not getting up until noon the next day.
Gu Han woke up and didn't really want to move; seeing the message, it was already past one, too late to go to the old residence for lunch.
Simply made a phone call and changed the gathering time to evening.
As for who might disagree in the old residence, Gu Han didn't care.
He threw down the phone, turned and flung himself into the arms of Jin Chen, who had sat back down beside the bed to keep him company, "Damn butler, I'm hungry!"
Hmm, last night's effect was obvious; the overbearing CEO no longer dares to mention the term "little dear wife".
Jin Chen closed the tablet, rubbed Gu Han's back of the head, "Lunch is already ready."
Gu Han narrowed his long eyes, glanced at the distance from the master bedroom to the bathroom, "Don't you think the bathroom is far?"
"I kind of regret choosing such a large master bedroom."
Jin Chen: "......"
Fine.
He resignedly picked up the unwilling‑to‑get‑down overbearing CEO and walked straight into the bathroom to accompany him in washing up.
The electric toothbrush buzzed; Gu Han leaned his body on Jin Chen, sleepy‑eyed, his speech also slurred.
"Gu Mu Jin has come back; the old residence now feels more like their family's home."
Dad still lives there alone; it's really heartbreaking.
"Come over tonight, let's bring my dad over; this is truly our three‑person home."
Jin Chen wrapped his arms around his waist, gently looking at his lover in the mirror, "Of course."
Gu Han also thought this method was great; he straightened his body, spat out the foam, "Just decided like that!"
