Chapter 511 - He Had Always Kept A Fox By His Side

Xian Guiying looked at her daughter"s hopeful expression. She gently carried her up and made her sit on her (Xian Guiying) lap, then lowered her head and smiled. "Qianqian, do you want to see Uncle Wei? When we get home, I"ll let Uncle Wei take you to the beach, okay?"

"Isn"t Uncle Wei very busy?" Qin Wenqian asked while blinking her large eyes and tilted her head.

Xian Guiying stroked her soft black hair and said with a smile, "As long as Qianqian wants Uncle Wei to accompany you, Uncle Wei can temporarily put aside his job and play with you for a day. How about that? Are you looking forward to it?"

"What about daddy? When can daddy be like Uncle Wei and be with Qianqian?"

Whenever the child mentioned this question, Xian Guiying would always avoid answering it. Still, thinking of Qin Gengxin"s cold smiles and cold eyes that seemed to evoke a bit of mockery, she could only patted her daughter"s back gently.

Xian Guiying had been too persistent in the past, but now she realized that it was no longer fun to live with too much convenience and persistence.

For example, Qin Gengxin.

Perhaps the reason why she had been quietly persistent for the past two years was because she thought that there would always be a day where he would remember everything that had happened to them. A day where he would put down the misunderstandings towards her and no longer think that all of this had been orchestrated by her. That one day, he would be willing to come back to the house and acknowledge this daughter of his and this wife of his.

However, it seemed like her wish was just a wish.

Two years.

She"s been waiting for two years.

What she got was his cold and mocking att.i.tude.

****

A luxury apartment building in New York City.

The playful sounds of children echoed in Qin Gengxin"s ears. This was the temporary residence of Mrs. Bai, a Chinese-American. Her grandson was four years old today, and she had invited many well-known and successful people from the industry to gather together.

Qin Gengxin stood by the window, drinking a gla.s.s of red wine. He looked at the sky outside and shook the gla.s.s gently, causing the red wine inside to sway slightly. It stained the walls of the gla.s.s with a faint red color before slowly melting back into the wine at the bottom.

"Mr. Qin, I am pleased that you could spend your time here today." Mrs. Bai walked over to him with a n.o.ble and graceful face.

Qin Gengxin turned around and smiled, "Mrs. Bai is too polite, Qin Corporation and Bai Group are old friends who have been working together for many years. Back then, I didn"t have the time to come over because I was too busy, now this child is four years old and I only have a chance to come today. In fact, that was my negligence. Please don"t blame me, this young generation, for being absurd."

"Mr. Qin, what are you talking about ~" Mrs. Bai looked at her grandson, who was playing with other children, and said, "Mr. Qin, you"re already thirty years old, when are you getting married? How come I never see you with your regular girlfriend anymore? I remembered a few years ago, you and Ms. Guiying from Xian Family both attended various events, yet the two of you did not interact at all during these two years."

In fact, in the last two years, due to the cancellation of the cooperation between Qin Corporation and Xian Enterprise, many people did not dare to voice this question directly. Bai Zongying was an old friend of the Qin Family and Xian Family, and she"s also the same age as Qin Gengxin"s parents.

"We"ve never been together." Qin Gengxin pursed his lip.

Bai Zongying was shocked for a moment, "You both never been together? We all know that you have a good relationship with Mr. Xian, the former president of Xian Enterprise and that when his sister took over Xian Enterprise, you would often take her out for various events and occasions. That time, everyone in our circle secretly thinks that the two of you are a golden couple and we are secretly looking forward to drinking the wedding wine at your wedding. Could it be that we misunderstood?"

How could there be a misunderstanding?

All those years ago, Qin Gengxin had treated Xian Guiying as a little sister who needed help. Not only because she was Xian Zihao"s little sister, but also because of her intelligence, calmness, and even some self-knowledge in economic management. This made him feel that Xian Guiying was a good person to join forces and besides, Xian Zihao had asked him to take care of her before he left.

It was just that he didn"t pay attention to the way she looked at him in the past and never realized when Xian Guiying fell in love with him in the first place.

At the time, the look in her eyes as she looked at him might be enough to prove everything in front of these people.

Qin Gengxin still remembered all those years ago when the woman he occasionally played with would always ask him whether he cared about Xian Guiying at all.

Until that ridiculous incident occurred.

It was not until he knew that she was pregnant with his child that he finally came to his senses.

He had always kept a fox by his side.

She was pregnant, and with the relationship between the Qin and Xian Families and Xian Zihao"s relationship with him, if he abandoned her and didn"t marry her, he would be a b.a.s.t.a.r.d.

What a good move!

But so what if they were married? Did Xian Guiying really think that by trapping him in this marriage, she would be able to pin his heart down?

Qin Gengxin drank the rest of the red wine in his gla.s.s in one gulp. He only smiled courteously at Bai Zongying and did not explain any further about this matter.

Amidst the jubilant clamor of the children, the tightly shut door was opened, and a clear and melodious voice was immediately heard from outside.

"Mom, I"m sorry, I"m late ~ Don"t blame me. The traffic jams are even worse than those in Beijing. It took me so long to get there!"

Qin Gengxin didn"t need to turn his head to know that the voice came from Bai Zongying"s daughter. He put down his wine gla.s.s and turned around to look at the figure at the door.

"President Qin is here too?" When Bai Zongying"s daughter saw her mother"s meaningful gaze, which seemed to convey a message, she immediately turned her body towards Qin Gengxin with a smile. With a low cry of surprise, she pushed her mother"s hand away and walked towards him. "President Qin is usually so busy, I didn"t expect you would come."

The corner of Qing Gengxin"s mouth slightly raised, "Miss Bai is getting prettier." After saying that, he saw the satisfied expression in Bai Zongying"s eyes. Deep down, he could already guess what she was thinking, but he didn"t blow it up.

The corner of his mouth curved into a non-smile when he said, "When I met you a few years ago, you were just a young woman who was just twenty years old. Within a blink of eyes, you"ve grown up."
