Possessive & Addicted: The CEO Could Never Let Her Go

Chapter 285: Precious Darling

Gu Xiaozhan’s face quickly turned sour when he heard these words, and his tone was very displeased: "Do I need a reason to dismiss someone?"

Even if his mother asked, he wouldn’t treat her well.

"Xiao Zhan, I know you have a lot of power, but Wennuan is still a girl, and she’s in the tutoring profession. The news of her being dismissed by you will quickly spread throughout the Imperial City, and even Country A. How will she have the face to get a job in the future?" Huo Yiwen listened as his anger flared, still talking incessantly.

Gu Xiaozhan didn’t want to continue the conversation, "That’s her business, don’t ask me!"

"Give the phone to An Han, I want to talk to her!" A cold smile appeared on Huo Yiwen’s face.

Gu Xiaozhan protected Mu Anhan like a precious treasure, "No need, whatever you have to say, you can say directly to me."

"Fine, tonight is the weekend, bring the two kids back home for dinner!" Huo Yiwen could already hear his impatience.

Gu Xiaozhan frowned, "It’s not one of the Gu Family’s big gatherings, what should I go back for?"

The Gu Family had days every month where all four households would gather, and every Gu Family member would return to the old family home.

"The younger ones miss their big brother, can’t you come back?" Huo Yiwen smiled as he talked about family.

Gu Xiaozhan didn’t immediately agree, "I’ll come back if I have time."

After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Huo Yiwen looked at Ye Wennuan who was beside her, "Wennuan, don’t be sad. I’ll have a good talk with Xiaozhan tonight."

"Thank you, madam!" Tears glimmered in Ye Wennuan’s eyes.

Huo Yiwen had a knack for winning people’s hearts. She handed a stack of documents on the table to Ye Wennuan: "Help me sort these out, they’re quite important."

"Yes, madam." Ye Wennuan, seeing how much she valued her, secretly vowed to remain loyal to her completely.

...

Emperor, President’s Office.

Gu Xiaozhan put down the phone, Tang Haolang had already walked out while he was on the call, leaving only Mu Anhan by his side.

"Is mom asking us to go back for dinner tonight?" Mu Anhan brought it up on her own.

Gu Xiaozhan nodded, "Don’t rule out the possibility of it being a trap."

Mu Anhan was amused by him, "You and your mother are always scheming, aren’t you tired?"

"That’s the Gu Family for you." Gu Xiaozhan rubbed his eyebrows.

Mu Anhan came forward and gently massaged him with her small hands, "Honey, I don’t want things to reach this point with Yao Yao too."

Gu Xiaozhan pulled her into his embrace, "You won’t."

"Are you sure?" Mu Anhan looked at him with a smile.

"Of course." Gu Xiaozhan nodded, "All conflicts and issues will be handled by me."

Mu Anhan looked at him intently, "I also don’t want your relationship with the children to become strained."

Gu Xiaozhan remained silent for a while before saying, "It won’t happen between father and children either."

He saw the concern in Mu Anhan’s eyes and reassured her: "It won’t reach that point with Yao Yao, Yu Er, and me. If a child is not taught properly, it’s the father’s fault. I will teach them well, it is my duty and responsibility as a father."

Mu Anhan nodded.

"Actually, the reason why the Gu Family is full of intrigue and scheming is because Dad married four wives!" Gu Xiaozhan chatted with her casually, "Each wife has to plan for themselves and their children."

Mu Anhan laughed, "You’re completely different from Dad. My husband will only ever have me as a wife, and I’m sure there won’t be any power struggles."
