Chapter 712 - If There Are Any Unhappy Things In The Future, Don"t Bear It Alone

"Zihao and Ruolan will go home first." Qin Gengxin came in and said, "The three children are at home, it"s not okay to only have Nanny Cheng to look after them. Qianqian and Zihao have a good relationship, so we don"t have to worry about her."

Xian Guiying nodded. "That"s good. I was still worried that no one would coax Qianqian to sleep tonight. Now that my brother and sister-in-law have gone back, I can finally rest a.s.sured."

The Old Man looked at them and asked, "How is that child"s health right now? Is she still easily get sick?"

Even though the Old Man"s words weren"t very clear, he had slowed down his speech. Perhaps he didn"t want to be looked down upon by the young and feared that they wouldn"t be able to hear him, so he tried very hard to speak.

Xian Guiying smiled as she looked at him. "Her health is much better now. As she grows older and consumes her usual nutrition, she"s getting better and better every day."

"That"s good." Old Man Xian nodded and looked at Qin Gengxin again. He seemed to have something to say, but he hesitated for a long time and didn"t say it in the end.

"Grandfather, is there something you want to say?" Qin Gengxin looked at him with a smile on his face, but that smile didn"t reach his eyes.

Old Man Xian looked at him again and just smiled. "As long as you two live a quiet life and live happily, that"s enough for me. I"m already old. I"m afraid of making you young people unhappy with my words."

From the Old Man"s words, it was obvious that he was prepared for Qin Gengxin"s anger.

Qin Gengxin merely smiled.

"Grandpa, let"s finish this bowl of porridge first." Xian Guiying didn"t want to hear the hidden meaning behind their words, so she immediately went to feed the Old Man.

Qin Gengxin went up to pick up the basin and said, "I have booked a room in a hotel across the street. Let mom rest first. She"s the one who took care of grandpa in the last few days. She looks tired."

"It"s good to let her rest." Old Man Xian said softly. "This daughter-in-law of mine. To be able to get Jian to marry her into this family, our Xian Family has truly made a fortune."

Qin Gengxin glanced at the Old Man and smiled, "I"ll go get some water. I"ll wipe the grandpa"s body later. Dad is usually busy, and mom won"t be able to help you clean your body. I"ll help you clean it."

The Old Man chuckled. "It"s fine. Zihao usually comes over to help me clean up."

"I"ll do it today." Qin Gengxin said as he walked out with the basin.

After he walked out of the ward, the Old Man looked towards Xian Guiying.

Xian Guiying was putting away the half-empty porridge bowl when she saw him looking at her in such a manner. She could not help but ask curiously, "Grandfather? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"What did the people of the Qin Family do to you?" Old Man Xian suddenly asked.

"It"s nothing." Xian Guiying hesitated for a moment. In the end, she didn"t want to say too much.

Old Man Xian looked at her for a long time, as if he had something to say, but pursed his lips and didn"t say anything in the end.

After a while, Qin Gengxin returned and placed the basin on the side, signaling for Xian Guiying to go out. He was going to wipe the Old Man"s body.

Xian Guiying looked at him, then looked at the Old Man, and when the Old Man wasn"t paying attention, she whispered, "Don"t talk too much to grandpa. Since you can accept everything that happened now, for the sake of our peaceful lives in the future, don"t talk about the past matters with him. Furthermore, didn"t you say that those are matters between elders? Although I don"t know what exactly happened, he is already like this."

"I understand." Qin Gengxin didn"t have any expression. He didn"t seem to have any intention of hating him and didn"t seem to have any intention of laughing either. He merely responded with a soft voice.

When Xian Guiying walked out of the ward, she stood outside the door and thought back to her grandfather"s expression just now. She felt that her grandfather had a lot of things he wanted to say to her but was unable to do so.

Two days later...

"The Old Man has already been in the hospital for 15 days. The doctor suggested that he go home and rest. Lying in the hospital like this doesn"t help him much. He doesn"t have much of a chance to exercise, which isn"t good for his recovery." Zhan An told the driver to go check out the Old Man before she came back. "The driver just took him back. If the two of you want to go home now, you can take a taxi with me. If you have anything else to do, you can do it first."

"Mom, I came back this time to accompany grandpa." Xian Guiying said softly. "It"s because I"ve been too stubborn, wasting so much time with revenge, I felt guilty. Now, I just want to accompany him for a good while, so I won"t think about anything else. Furthermore, Qianqian is still in the Xian Residence."

"Alright then." Zhan An then looked at Qin Gengxin. "You don"t plan to return to G City?"

To the best of her knowledge, Qin Gengxin had never formally brought her daughter to the Qin"s Residence before.

"When the things here are settled, I will bring her to G City." Qin Gengxin answered.

It seemed that he really did intend to re-establish this marriage.

Zhan An didn"t say anything. She just looked at the hospital doc.u.ments in her hands as she walked out. When she reached the door, she saw Qin Gengxin getting a car. She turned around and suddenly asked, "Guiying, did you and him get divorced?"

Xian Guiying immediately froze. "Mom …"

"Your brother respected your wish and didn"t tell us, but he couldn"t help telling me because I kept pressuring him again and again. In the end, you are my daughter, and you should be the one to tell me about your matters. He simply told me some of the things that happened between you and Qin Gengxin. Although your brother didn"t say much, I know that you have suffered too much."

"Mom, it"s already over. Qin Gengxin and I did have some misunderstandings between us, but now those misunderstandings have been resolved." Xian Guiying hugged Zhan An"s arm and said coquettishly. "Mom, I know you love me. Our misunderstanding has already been resolved. We are doing fine as well. Please don"t -"

"Don"t add insult to injury?" Zhan An glanced at her.

Xian Guiying leaned on her shoulder like a child and smiled. Zhan An smiled helplessly. "You have been very stubborn since you were young. Just know this, mom loves you so much."

"I know, there is no mother in this world who doesn"t care for their child. I am also a mother now."

"Alright, alright. Girl, since a young age, you"ve never been coquettish with me. Now that you"re so old, you tried to be coquettish. I don"t know who you learned it from. Fine, I won"t cause more problems for your family. Since this is your own choice, then mom will still respect you, but if there are any unhappy things in the future, don"t bear it alone, understand?"

"Yes." Xian Guiying closed her eyes and leaned against her shoulder. She suddenly felt that it had always been her stubbornness that made her reject the warmth that was provided by her family.

Actually, everyone loves her a lot...

Qin Gengxin walked back. "The driver parked the car on the opposite road."

Zhan An nodded and walked away.

Seeing Xian Guiying staring at Zhan An"s back, Qin Gengxin guessed what the mother and daughter pair had been talking about. He did not say anything but reached out his hand to hold her hand.

He asked softly, "Do you need me to explain it to her when we get back?"

"No need, my mom is very open-minded. She said it already, since the two of us are doing well now, then she won"t add to our problems." Xian Guiying laughed out loud as she said the word Zhan An had just said.

Qin Gengxin could not help but laugh as well. "She is indeed a considerate mother."

"Yeah, but so what if she"s so understanding? My father still betrayed her when he was young, and even though my mother is currently guarding this house, it has been many years since she has stayed in the same room with my father. The words they convey are becoming less and less as if they are two strangers in this house."

Qin Gengxin lightly patted her shoulder. "The reason why she"s staying in this house is to protect her dignity and the Xian Family. On the other hand, it"s for you and Zihao. She"s a good mother and a good daughter-in-law."

"If it were me, I"m afraid I wouldn"t be as magnanimous as her." Xian Guiying suddenly glanced at him and said, "If you dare to mess around with other women outside …"

"Absolutely not!" Qin Gengxin interrupted her, smiled, and whispered into her ear, "Only you can cure my illness. The other women are all skeletons now, so even if I die, I"ll die on you ~"

"Hooligan!" Xian Guiying laughed as she pushed him away, only to be held tightly by him.
