Entwined by Dawn: The CEO's Relentless Obsession

Zhang Yuexin noticed that her good feelings towards Cheng Junnan were rising again, but she felt Cheng Junnan’s attitude was ambiguous, so she decided to cast a wide net and chatted with Shu Kaiqi beside her.

"Kaiqi, you should eat more too. I remember you were a bit chubby when you were young, but now you’re so slender. It’s not good for boys to be too thin; girls might feel they lack a sense of security!"

After Zhang Yuexin finished speaking, she picked up a piece of rib and placed it on the plate in front of Shu Kaiqi. Shu Kaiqi smiled, accepted Zhang Yuexin’s kindness, and lowered his head to eat.

Seeing Bai Chenyao being reticent, Gu Qingfeng smiled.

"Chenyao, you should eat more too. It’s rare to have a meal together, eat up."

Gu Qingfeng wasn’t exactly a social person, so his conversation revolved around those few words.

After speaking, he worried that Bai Chenyao would pretend not to hear, anxiously waiting for a response.

However, Bai Chenyao looked up at Gu Qingfeng. The usually indifferent Bai Chenyao had a gentle expression at this moment, with a touch of warmth in his eyes.

"Okay, Uncle, you should eat more too!"

Although it was a simple statement, Gu Qingfeng felt somewhat flattered hearing it.

"Alright, alright, everyone eat more. President Cheng, Kaiqi, eat more!"

After Gu Qingfeng finished speaking, he noticed that his daughter and niece were absent, and frowned.

"Yuexin, go take a look."

"It’s okay, they just went out. Probably the two sisters have something private to say. They’re not kids anymore, don’t need someone to keep an eye on them!"

As soon as Zhang Yuexin finished her words, she noticed a cold gaze falling on her.

A chill ran down her spine, and she didn’t even need to look to know whose gaze it was.

Her smile froze as she saw her husband looking at her disapprovingly. Zhang Yuexin coughed and put down her chopsticks.

"I’ll go check on them. You all enjoy eating, drinking, and chatting!"

Soon after Zhang Yuexin went out, Bai Chenyao looked at Gu Qingfeng and curled his lips into a faint smile.

"I’m going to the restroom, you all continue!"

Cheng Junnan’s eyes flickered, and Shu Kaiqi’s hand holding the wine glass paused slightly, but he quickly raised his glass towards Gu Qingfeng.

"Uncle Gu, let me toast you again!"

Although Gu Qingfeng isn’t a keen observer of others’ emotions, the moment Bai Chenyao got up and left, he instinctively looked at Cheng Junnan and Shu Kaiqi.

Seeing Shu Kaiqi smiling and toasting, Gu Qingfeng smiled back and took a sip of the tea in front of him.

"Yuexin, go check on Yunyun and Tian Tian, why haven’t they come back yet!"

Zhang Yuexin was just about to discuss the situation with Shu Kaiqi when she noticed her husband was so out of sync, she frowned slightly, looking displeased.

"I told you... Yunyun and Tian Tian are not children; I already said there’s nothing to worry about."

Gu Qingfeng: "..."

Cheng Junnan glanced at Zhang Yuexin with gentle eyes, then looked at Gu Qingfeng.

"I’ll go check. I’ll visit the restroom too!"

Gu Qingfeng: "..."

Zhang Yuexin quickly chimed in: "That would be wonderful. If I left, I’d worry that your Uncle Gu might find it inconvenient!"

"Thank you so much, Junnan!"

"No problem!"

Cheng Junnan nodded slightly towards Shu Kaiqi as a greeting, stood up, and walked out.

Seeing Bai Chenyao and Cheng Junnan leave one after the other, a complex emotion flashed in Shu Kaiqi’s eyes, and Zhang Yuexin’s voice came again.

"Kaiqi, come, have some food! It’s been years since we’ve seen each other, let’s chat comfortably with your aunt!"
