Chapter 683 - Is My Life Or Death Very Important To You


After finishing frying the egg, Xian Guiying scooped it up and placed it on a plate. She paused and then slowly said, "Qin Gengxin, everyone will grow and change, I used to be unable to cook, but now I am. Just like how I used to love to be by your side when I was young. But now, I don"t."


She turned around with a smile and placed the plate on the table. Since it took some time to make the porridge, she put the bread and sausages on the table. Finally, she returned to the couch and took the thermometer.


39 degrees, still feverish.


Xian Guiying frowned, and seeing Qin Gengxin"s expression, she realized that he was looking at her, but his eyes were not the same apologetic and pa.s.sionate look as when he looked at her when he was in Wuyuan, but instead plain. It wasn"t like he examined her, but instead, he was looking through her.


"Still burning. After you finish eating, take another antipyretic medicine. If your fever hasn"t subsided by noon, you should go to the hospital. Qianqian will return from kindergarten in the afternoon, and the bus will be parked under the apartment building. The security guard downstairs will escort her upstairs, and if the security guard rings the doorbell, you can open the door. Remember, don"t drink alcohol. If you continue to drink like this, your body won"t be able to take it anymore."


Qin Gengxin didn"t ask her what she would do at noon. He just sat there quietly, listening to her concerns.


After the porridge was done cooking, Xian Guiying went to scoop it into a bowl and put it on the table.


"Come and eat." As she spoke, she placed the spoon next to the bowl. Then, she looked at the silent Qin Gengxin and calmly said, "No matter what, you can"t destroy your body like this. Your health is more important right now, right?"


Qin Gengxin sat in silence for a long time before he got up. He slowly walked over to the table and saw a rather sumptuous breakfast. After sitting down, he picked up a spoon and began to eat.


Watching his rare obedience behavior, Xian Guiying smiled. She pushed the omelet and sausage, then pushed the bread, "If you don"t want porridge, you can eat this with bread. There"s a salad in the fridge."


With that, she no longer observed him. After all, Qin Gengxin wasn"t in good condition to start it. If she watched him eat, he probably wouldn"t eat at all.


Xian Guiying left the kitchen and went to pick up the clothes she had washed the night before. Qin Gengxin was indeed really hungry. He hasn"t eaten much lately. He slept all day, drank all night, and ate all the food that should not be considered food. Seeing the steaming and fragrant vegetable porridge, he finally took a bite.


The taste that came into his mouth had a slightly sweet taste. He didn"t know if Xian Guiying was adding sugar to it, but it tasted really good. He couldn"t help but have a new level of respect for her.


Xian Guiying at this time was completely different from before.


She was right. Everyone will grow up and change.


Qin Gengxin heard the sound of clothes being ironed and thought he had misheard, but as he turned his body slightly, he saw Xian Guiying standing on the edge of the ironing board, ironing his clothes.


"I see that you don"t wear the clothes you normally wear when you go to work, so I just put them in the washing machine and rinse them."


Whether it"s cooking, washing, or ironing, it"s all very easy for her now.


Qin Gengxin watched her in silence.


Xian Guiying finished ironing his jacket, turned around to hang it, then took his shirt, then placed it on the ironing board.


As Xian Guiying raised his eyes to look at him, Qin Gengxin immediately looked away, continuing to eat his porridge. He was silent and expressionless.


Seeing that he didn"t want to talk to her anymore, Xian Guiying sighed and smiled. She did not want to disturb this rare silence.


Qin Gengxin ate most of the breakfast that she prepared silently. Xian Guiying was very satisfied with it. Seeing that he had finished eating and sitting at the dining table for ten minutes, she went to pour a cup of water and put it in front of him.


"Take the medicine." She went back to ironing his pants.


"Xian Guiying." Qin Gengxin suddenly spoke. His voice was light, but it looked like he was coming from a far, far away place. There were traces of coldness in his voice.


Xian Guiying stopped and looked back.


"Why can"t you be more straightforward? The marriage is done, is my life or death very important to you? Bring me back from Royale Nightclub and take care of me all night." Qin Gengxin shifted his gaze, looking at her with cold eyes. "What are you trying to do?"


"What am I trying to do?" Xian Guiying looked at him and repeated his words softly, "Mr. Qin, I hope you don"t misunderstand. I just don"t want to see you die from alcohol poisoning after getting a high fever. Even if you die there, no one will spare a glance at you."


"So that"s how it is?" Qin Gengxin sneered.


Xian Guiying didn"t say anything more and moved away from him. She took his pants and ironed them once more.


Was it because she still cared about him, afraid something would happen to him, so that"s why she couldn"t bear seeing him in such a state?


No.


Maybe, it was just a habit and concern she had for him more than a decade ago. Moreover, he was already planning to sell his company now. No matter how he was in the past, from a friend"s point of view, it wouldn"t be bad to care about him.


Thinking about this, Xian Guiying felt more relieved.


• • • •


Her phone suddenly rang and it was from Xian Zihao. "Are you ready?"


At that time, Xian Guiying was tidying up the dining table. Qin Gengxin was persuaded by her to return to the bedroom to rest. When she received Xian Zihao"s call, her rationality had returned to her mind.


"Not yet." As she spoke, she put the bowl and spoon into the sink.


"You don"t need me to pick you up?"


"No need, the hotel we arranged to meet isn"t too far from here. I drove myself there. Since you suddenly came back to America without a car, I"ll pick you up, won"t I?"


"That won"t be necessary. Just tell me when you"re ready."


"Alright then."


Before hanging up the phone, Xian Zihao suddenly asked, "Guiying, are you really ready?"


This time, he didn"t ask about her main preparations.


Xian Guiying held up her phone and stood on the balcony, looking out over the busy city of Boston. She said in a soft voice, "Big brother, I don"t want to give myself any path of retreat anymore."


The person at the end of the line was silent for a long time before slowly hanging up the phone.


Xian Guiying hung up the phone and sighed. When she turned around, she saw that Qin Gengxin, who had initially returned to the bedroom, was standing in the living room, looking at her with an indifferent look.
