The Only One With a Mouth in the CEO Novel - Chapter 104: I Have Something to Attend to in the Pacific

Chapter 104: I Have Something to Attend to in the Pacific

This house is truly beautiful.

Cheng Jinhua’s eyes shone with admiration as she circled the living room.

Ye Jin followed behind her.

Is Xiao Gu… particularly wealthy? This was the first time Cheng Jinhua had genuinely sensed the financial power behind Gu Chenxi.

Ye Jin nodded: Yes.

After all, Gu Chenxi was the male lead of a novel.

A poor man wouldn’t qualify to be the male protagonist.

Sigh.

Cheng Jinhua, however, let out a sigh. When the gap is too wide, relationships can actually be quite challenging.

The disparity between them was indeed significant…

Ye Jin’s thoughts inexplicably drifted elsewhere.

But she quickly brushed those notions away.

She must have been corrupted by Gu Chenxi.

Ye Jin gritted her teeth in thought.

Jinjin, you should do whatever you want. Mom won’t interfere.

After her serious illness, Cheng Jinhua had become much more open-minded, no longer dwelling on intangible matters. She turned and went to the kitchen to cook with Gu Chenxi.

Ye Jin obediently followed, assisting the two master chefs between them.

Gu Chenxi was the head chef for the evening, preparing three elaborate dishes in succession—each a feast for the eyes and palate, tempting Ye Jin to sneak bites behind their backs.

Cheng Jinhua, less familiar with the kitchen setup, simmered a chicken soup and tossed her specialty cold appetizer.

As dusk settled.

The last rays of sunlight filtered through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Casting a golden glow over the dimming living room.

The meal was served.

The three of them sat together in the bright dining room to eat.

Gu Chenxi was putting on an act again tonight, deliberately playing the role of the perfect son-in-law in front of her mother.

Yet, he seemed noticeably more relaxed than during their time at the Gu residence, which put Ye Jin at ease.

Could it be that growing up under high pressure had left him with lingering shadows around his family? Was that why he couldn’t unwind at the Gu home?

Since her mother hadn’t imposed any pressure on him, was he able to feign ease more comfortably?

Ye Jin pondered seriously, chopsticks in hand.

A piece of sweet and sour pork rib was placed in her bowl.

Cheng Jinhua stared at her, asking in a tone that saw right through her: Did you fill up on snacks in the kitchen earlier?

A little.

Her mother’s presence felt somewhat overwhelming.

Ye Jin stopped daydreaming and silently buried herself in her meal.

After dinner.

Ye Jin and Gu Chenxi cleared the used dishes and utensils into the dishwasher.

Cheng Jinhua stood by the living room’s floor-to-ceiling window, capturing the beautiful night scenery.

It’s good to be rich.

She murmured to herself.

The view from home was even more stunning than the sights at tourist spots.

Due to her health, Cheng Jinhua needed to be in bed by ten o’clock.

Ye Jin timed her departure accordingly.

I’ll see you out. Gu Chenxi accompanied them all the way downstairs.

Ye Jin pressed the car’s unlock button and turned to bid Gu Chenxi farewell: I’m heading off.

Mm.

His gaze lowered, tangibly lingering on her lips as if marking them.

He was asking for a kiss again.

Ye Jin took a step back, refusing: No kiss.

They had kissed so much earlier that the mere sight of him made her lips ache.

Drive safely.

Gu Chenxi quietly accepted her rejection.

Ye Jin’s expression turned peculiar in an instant.

It really wasn’t her imagination.

He had finally gotten his fill of kissing at noon.

Arriving home.

Cheng Jinhua went to sleep, while Ye Jin took the dog out for a walk.

Her expression serious, she contemplated a matter of great importance:

Gu Chenxi has such strong needs—does dating him mean every kiss has to last at least an hour?

This is just too… much.

Ye Jin wore a troubled expression, feeling quite overwhelmed.

When it came to romance, she was an outright underachiever.

But she was also an underachiever who took studying seriously.

The system wasn’t around.

Ye Jin could only try turning to netizens for help.

She led Lucky to a bench by the roadside and sat down.

There weren’t many pedestrians around.

Ye Jin unclipped the leash, allowing Lucky to roam a short distance away.

Then she opened her phone.

The daily vlog she posted a few days ago had since been set to private.

But Ye Jin could still see the bullet comments and the comment section.

She planned to start by looking for inspiration in the netizens’ teasing remarks.

At the beginning of the video, Gu Chenxi took the device from her hand and, using his longer arms, pulled the camera farther back to fit both of them in the frame.

Ahhhhhhhhh!

They’re together!!! They’re really together!!!

Kiss, kiss, kiss, hurry up and kiss!!

The screen was flooded with screams as soon as she opened it.

Ye Jin scratched her palm sheepishly and braced herself to keep watching.

This was the first time she had opened the video since posting it.

Because Ye Jin felt it would be strange to have people watching her relationship unfold.

In the video.

Ye Jin adjusted the shooting angle by pulling on Gu Chenxi’s shoulder while reminding him, We’re in video mode now.

What she didn’t notice while filming was that Gu Chenxi was looking down at her, his eyes filled with affection.

So sweet I’m swooning.

How can two people look so perfect together just by standing side by side?

Just savor the look in CEO Gu’s eyes—the tension is off the charts.

Already imagined 108 positions, don’t let us down.

To make the frame look better, Ye Jin leaned closer to Gu Chenxi.

She was still focused on the camera.

But Gu Chenxi’s Adam’s apple bobbed noticeably.

Holy crap.

Stop filming and just go to bed already.

They must have just gotten together, and just a slight move closer has CEO Gu this excited?

Ye Jin paused the video and glanced around to make sure no one was nearby.

But she still buried her burning face in her arms, hiding like an ostrich.

It was such a normal video—how did their comments make it feel like watching something indecent?

Lucky noticed Ye Jin’s unusual mood and came over to check on her.

I’m fine.

Ye Jin turned her face and patted the caring puppy’s head. Go on and play.

After mentally preparing herself again, she continued watching the video.

In the video, Ye Jin reminded Gu Chenxi to look at the camera, and he said he was.

But in reality, his gaze never left her.

There’s only two words written all over CEO Gu: wants to kiss.

Hehe, he really likes getting close, doesn’t he?

But Ye Jin in the video was completely unaware.

She bent down to pick up Lucky and bring him into the shot, wholly focused on taking photos.

And even called the puppy baby.In that instant, Gu Chenxi’s expression turned subtle.

What a hopelessly dense straight girl.

The blogger really is a block of wood, lololol.

Bet she still calls him CEO Gu in private too, right?

Ye Jin: …

Why the sudden personal attacks?

Back then, she really hadn’t noticed.

But now she knows! Isn’t that good enough?

The video ended, and Ye Jin turned off her phone, carefully reflecting on the matter in her heart.

So-called physiological attraction might not be as simple as Gu Chenxi had confessed—just wanting to kiss, to… lick or something.

He probably also really enjoyed physical contact with her.

Along with intimate terms of endearment and the like.

Broadly speaking, he likely wanted to maintain that sweet feeling of being in love at all times.

At the same time, this state had a more common name: Love-struck.

So after all that, they were back to square one, right?

Ye Jin rested her chin on her hand, lost in thought for a while, before finally leading Lucky back home.

I’m going to sleep now

After washing up, Ye Jin lay in bed and sent a message to Gu Chenxi.

Gu Chenxi: Sweet dreams

Ye Jin: Mhm mhm

Ye Jin: Goodnight, baby~

She pressed the phone against her chest, secretly giving herself full marks for that move.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated again.

Gu Chenxi’s low voice came through a voice message: I want to hear your voice.

In his daily work, Gu Chenxi’s normal voice was clearer and carried an undeniable sharpness between the lines.

But the voice Ye Jin heard most often was this deliberately lowered, soft, and mesmerizing tone that made her ears tingle.

Ye Jin also tapped the voice message button and whispered, Goodnight, baby.

One hundred and fifty points.

Ye Jin quietly praised herself in her heart.

Another voice message came from the other side.

Ye Jin tapped to play it, and Gu Chenxi’s affectionate chuckle immediately came through the phone: You too, baby.

…

Three hundred points.

Because Gu Chenxi’s ability to be romantic was a whole level above hers!

She had been sleepy before.

But now, she was so stirred up she couldn’t fall asleep.

–

After the exhibition ended, Ye Jin started getting pressured to go live again.

Just her going live wasn’t enough.

Netizens insisted she bring Gu Chenxi along.

Especially after that couple’s daily vlog was posted—the CP fans were clamoring for a duo livestream every day.

But President Gu was truly a busy man, and Ye Jin didn’t want to bother him over trivial matters and add to his workload.

After much thought,

Ye Jin decided to go live while Gu Chenxi was working and casually include him in the frame.

That way, all problems would be perfectly solved.

Ye Jin started her livestream.

She pulled a chair over to the desk and sat beside Gu Chenxi.

Do you want to wear noise-canceling headphones?

Ye Jin was worried she might disturb Gu Chenxi’s work.

No need, he said softly. I like listening to you talk.

…Alright.

Ye Jin’s face flushed slightly again.

She tried her best to stay calm and noticed comments on the screen asking what they were whispering about.

Ye Jin smiled and replied, Of course, we’re whispering sweet nothings.

The comments below immediately erupted in laughter.

Truly the internet’s sweetheart

You really know how to keep us guessing

Ye Jin: I’m not teasing, I just don’t want to tell you.

She had a witty way with words.

Just interacting with the livestream audience, her playful banter kept coming one after another, never boring.

Is President Gu just here as a watermark?

Oh my, if this keeps up, I’m going to fall for the streamer

The streamer has such a great personality. If I met her in real life, I’d definitely want to be friends with her no matter what

Under Ye Jin’s sheer personal charm,

The Gu Chenxi beside her gradually went from President Gu to that guy.

The audience’s fondness for Ye Jin skyrocketed.

Witnessing this scene, Ye Jin felt secretly pleased and quietly hooked her pinky finger with his under the table.

Gu Chenxi had long grown accustomed to being given the cold shoulder by her.

Yet this time, she suddenly cautiously offered him a piece of candy.

While he kept his eyes lowered, focused on his work, and showed no outward reaction, his hand under the table seized hers, their fingers interlacing tightly as he firmly grasped that sweet treat.

……

Ye Jin instantly straightened her posture.

Her reaction was too obvious, and the live-stream audience immediately noticed something was off.

What’s going on? What’s going on?

Their hands.

Oho~ secretly holding hands under the table, are we?

Dare you show us your hands under the table?

What was there to dare?

Ye Jin very calmly brought Gu Chenxi’s hand up and placed it on the table.

Gu Chenxi only glanced at her briefly before indifferently returning his attention to his work.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh!

The live chat instantly erupted into screams.

Even though we already knew they were dating, I’m still so excited ahhh!

CEO Gu has finally made it!!!

Wuwuwu they’re holding hands with fingers interlaced! Grandma, the CP you’ve been shipping has finally given us sugar!

Ye Jin had been perfectly calm at first.

But after waiting patiently for a long while, the screams in the live stream showed no signs of stopping.

The originally stable audience of 200,000 viewers suddenly multiplied, rapidly approaching the 800,000 mark.

Seriously, were they really that excited?

Ye Jin gradually began to lose her composure.

She twitched her fingers, trying to pull her hand back, but Gu Chenxi chased after it and interlaced their fingers even more tightly.

Gu Chenxi was still working with his head bowed.

So, he only spared a fraction of his attention to whisper to her, Let’s hold hands a little longer, baby.

His voice carried both coaxing and a hint of pleading.

……

Had he forgotten they were still live-streaming?

Ye Jin felt as if steam was about to rise from her head. Flustered and embarrassed, she rested her forehead against his shoulder and whispered back, Isn’t this enough?

Aside from their kiss in the car last time, they hadn’t had any physical contact in a long while.

Now, with Ye Jin suddenly leaning against him so dependently, all thoughts of work instantly vanished from Gu Chenxi’s mind.

His Adam’s apple bobbed uncontrollably.

End the stream, he said, his voice turning hoarse.

No, don’t!

I’ll buy an Exoskeleton, okay? Please don’t end it!!

Wuwu I’m willing to pay to keep watching, don’t go!

The live stream was instantly flooded with a frenzy of gift effects.

The implication of paying to watch was unmistakable.

Ye Jin bristled, her embarrassment forgotten as she retorted, What do you take me for?! There’s no such thing as paying to watch. Stop sending gifts.

Gu Chenxi squeezed her interlaced hand, lowered his gaze, and said, Shall we end the stream then?

Though phrased as a question, the urgency in his tone was clear.

Ye Jin: …No.

She didn’t want to end up kissing him in the office for at least an hour—that would be too embarrassing.

The live chat immediately filled with yellow hearts.

Suddenly, ending the stream doesn’t seem so bad, hehe.

End it, I agree to end the stream.

Streamer, don’t chicken out! Hurry up and end the stream to have a showdown with CEO Gu.

Ye Jin: …………

Were they all clairvoyant mind-readers? How could they possibly figure that out?

Faced with her refusal, Gu Chenxi had no choice but to suppress the thoughts in his head and return to his work.

He quickly became fully immersed again.

Ye Jin’s worries had been completely unnecessary.

She sat beside him doing her livestream, fingers interlaced with his, which didn’t affect his work in the slightest.

On the contrary.

He felt deeply at ease. It was as if a missing piece of his soul had been restored, making him feel whole and fulfilled, allowing him to immerse himself more easily in his work.

Ye Jin visibly spoke less.

She stared blankly at the nearly one million viewers in the livestream, idly passing time without much to say.

After about half an hour, she managed to dwindle the viewer count down to eight hundred thousand.

Ye Jin figured her streaming time was about up.

Besides, Gu Chenxi had been working all along and had probably cooled down by now, forgetting about what happened earlier.

So she proposed ending the stream again.

She shut down the livestream with a sense of relief.

Before she could even exhale fully,

her chair was spun around by a force, and she was lifted onto Gu Chenxi’s lap.

His eyes were dark and intense.

Making Ye Jin’s heart skip a beat.

Don’t.

Ye Jin quickly stopped him, No kissing.

Why?

Gu Chenxi lowered his gaze and pulled her into his embrace.

Ye Jin answered seriously, Because I don’t want to kiss for an hour in the office.

Gu Chenxi was amused and chuckled.

Not that long this time, he promised in a low voice.

Really? Ye Jin was skeptical.

Mm, Gu Chenxi said, I won’t let you break up with me a third time.

…That was indeed very persuasive.

Fine.

She believed him.

Ye Jin tilted her head up and pressed her lips to his.

With their previous experience, she had finally learned some kissing techniques and honestly applied them to Gu Chenxi.

Gu Chenxi gently received and guided her.

Their soft lips collided, creating countless delightful sensations, intimately reaching a certain peak as if their souls and bodies were trembling and merging.

Ye Jin unconsciously let out a muffled sound.

Her whole body turned soft again, as if something unfamiliar was quietly awakening within her.

Is this what being in love feels like?

So comfortable.

The intense wave of passion pushed her limits once more.

Ye Jin opened her eyes.

The angle of the kiss allowed her to clearly see every expression on Gu Chenxi’s face.

His lowered eyelashes, smooth skin, and crimson lips and tongue.

Eyes closed, he was devotedly pleasing her.

So seductive.

Ye Jin unconsciously clenched her fingers, aroused by him, letting out unbearable, sweet sounds.

She instinctively gasped for breath.

Aware of her sudden change, Ye Jin closed her eyes in embarrassment, unwilling to face it any further.

Shall we get engaged?

Gu Chenxi had stopped at some point and whispered the proposal by her ear.

Don’t be afraid of me, he gently nibbled her earlobe, I can pretend for a lifetime.

Ye Jin’s entire body was set ablaze by him, flushed and burning like a curled-up shrimp.

She finally understood a bit of how Gu Chenxi felt.

It really was… unbearable.

But isn’t it irrational to talk about marriage at a time like this? Ye Jin murmured softly.

Marriage was a serious matter, and she didn’t want to make a hasty decision driven by desire.

Can we keep kissing? Ye Jin hooked her arms around his neck, truly experiencing the joy of kissing for the first time.

Mm.

Gu Chenxi lowered his head and continued kissing her.

Faintly, Ye Jin heard the soft, wet sounds again.

She shyly shrank back but didn’t struggle to pull away, merely blushing and adjusting the angle to continue kissing.

Gradually,

the sound of their kisses faded from her ears.

Ye Jin allowed herself to be drawn into the vortex of desire, thoroughly enjoying this kiss.

When she opened her eyes again,

She discovered she had actually fallen asleep.

She was lying on the sofa in Gu Chenxi’s office, covered with his suit jacket.

……

Ye Jin struggled to recall what happened before she fell asleep.

At that moment, she suddenly felt dizzy and lightheaded, her mind going completely blank.

She thought it would be like before—a brief moment of mental blankness before gradually regaining awareness.

But unexpectedly, this blankness directly led to a complete loss of consciousness.

How embarrassing.

She buried her face in agony.

Awake?

Gu Chenxi noticed her movements and looked over.

The main lights in the office were turned off, leaving only a reading lamp illuminated at his desk.

Ye Jin peeked out with just her eyes visible and replied, Mhm.

The soft lamplight fell on his profile, so handsome it seemed almost unreal.

Gu Chenxi stood up and walked over.

He wasn’t wearing his suit jacket, just a simple white shirt tucked into dress pants that outlined his slender waist.

So sexy it was dazzling.

Ye Jin, wrapped in his jacket, sat up and watched him approach.

Freshly awakened, the drowsiness in her eyes hadn’t completely faded. The hazy way she looked at him made Gu Chenxi adore it beyond words.

Can I… He swallowed, hesitantly asking, kiss you?

Mhm.

Ye Jin nodded.

Then she was immediately kissed, her lips thoroughly sealed.

Mmph—

Ye Jin let out an uncontrollable moan, instinctively closing her eyes and tilting her head up to receive it.

Gu Chenxi’s kiss wasn’t fierce.

It was within her tolerable range.

So Ye Jin closed her eyes and slowly responded.

She felt like she was about to be kissed into ruin.

Otherwise, why would it feel so incredibly pleasurable?

All her previous resistance had completely vanished.

Baby.

Gu Chenxi called to her in a low voice, pecking her lips, Come back to me.

If they continued, she might just get kissed unconscious again.

Ye Jin’s rationality quickly resurfaced, her soft body gradually stiffening like a stone statue.

So adorable.

Gu Chenxi lowered his gaze, planting kisses everywhere, and called out again in a hushed tone, Baby.

Ye Jin’s cheeks flushed completely red.

Gu Chenxi soothingly stroked her spine, It’s okay, no need to be embarrassed.

Does saying no need to be embarrassed really make it not embarrassing?

Let me go first, I need to go to the Pacific Ocean for something. Ye Jin struggled to get up.

What’s wrong?

Gu Chenxi loosened his hold slightly but quickly tightened his embrace again upon hearing the latter part.

Ye Jin gritted her teeth, I dropped something there, I need to dive into the ocean to retrieve it.

Gu Chenxi was amused by her, holding Ye Jin as his entire chest shook with laughter.

Ye Jin kept a straight face and let him laugh.

The intimate atmosphere gradually dissipated.

Oh no. Ye Jin suddenly remembered, I didn’t tell my mom I’d be home late.

She bolted upright, frantically searching for her phone.

Gu Chenxi handed her phone to her, I already told her for you.

What did you say? Ye Jin took the phone.

Gu Chenxi: That you’re with me.

Oh.

As long as her mom wasn’t worried.

Ye Jin lowered her head to check the messages on her phone.

She didn’t struggle to break free from his arms, so Gu Chenxi took it as permission.

He hugged her tightly, lowering his head to inhale the scent at her neck.

His girlfriend was a momma’s girl.

This was a fact he had known all along.

Since Gu Chenxi had already informed her mother on her behalf, Ye Jin wasn’t in a hurry to return home.

Ye Jin found a restaurant on her phone and had dinner with Gu Chenxi.

Finally, Gu Chenxi accompanied her to the entrance of her apartment complex.

I’m heading in now, Ye Jin bid him farewell.

It was already late at night.

So Ye Jin proactively stood on her toes and gave Gu Chenxi another kiss.

Mmm.

Ye Jin’s waist was encircled by his powerful arm, as if they were naturally meant to fit together.

Yet Gu Chenxi generously released her, concealing the satisfied look in his eyes as he watched her disappear from his view.
