novelSince Qianqian Needs You As Her Father, Can't You Treat Me Fairly
| ← Ch.567 | Ch.569 → |
It wasn't really a miracle. Qin Wenqian was a special case, and maybe she really could recover from this 15% chance.
It was unknown whether Qin Gengxin's rare response had moved her. Xian Guiying held her daughter's hand gently and pulled the blanket over her body. Then she looked at Qin Gengxin, who was also looking at Qin Wenqian.
The scene where he carried her on his back out of the hospital was still fresh in her mind, so she just looked at him like that. Her eyes filled with curiosity and confusion.
It had been a long time since Xian Guiying had such a confused expression on her face. When Qin Gengxin withdrew his gaze from Qin Wenqian and glanced at her, he just so happened to meet her eyes.
Qin Gengxin was stunned for a moment, then raised his brows and the corner of his mouth lifted slightly.
In the end, the human heart was only made of flesh. Moreover, they had already had eleven years of relationship between them. Now, with the addition of such a cute daughter, how could he continue to be so cold and detached?
Qin Gengxin smiled faintly, put his hands in his pockets, and shrugged his shoulders. When he turned around, he said casually, "I'm going to my study to use the computer. You should get some rest."
As he took two steps toward the study, Xian Guiying suddenly called out to him."Qin Gengxin."
Qin Gengxin stopped, his handsome eyebrows raised slightly. He glanced at her with a bit of doubt in his eyes.
"If you can be with anyone else except Jiang Ruolan, then it's just a matter of time. Since Qianqian needs you as her father, can't you treat me fairly? At least pretend in front of her."
There wasn't a hint of begging in her words, nor was there much scheme. It was just that she didn't use her child to force him to do anything.
Xian Guiying just couldn't figure it out. Since Qin Gengxin can be with any woman for so many years, so why couldn't she do it?
She once thought that because she was Xian Zihao's little sister, he really only saw her as his little sister. However, this kind of attitude could be changed as the child was born. It's been two years, how long will he treat her like this?
However, Xian Guiying knew that Qin Gengxin would not give her the answer.
Qin Gengxin didn't say anything. He just looked at her silently. Xian Guying tilted her head."We are not that young anymore. I have persisted in many things and I have been domineering before, but in the end, under the passage of time, I gradually learned to let things go and take a step back. You have always been a smart man."
"You've always known how to take detours and twists and turns, but in my feelings, even in our marriage, why did you turn into a stone? Do you have to insist on maximizing all the damage? Do you really feel good about it?"
Qin Gengxin maintained his previous posture, just looking at her in silence.
There seemed to be a layer of mist in his eyes, making it difficult for people to see his emotions. Xian Guiying could not know what he was thinking.
Sometimes, it was truly difficult to see through him and see through his thoughts.
Xian Guiying had once wanted to peek into his heart, but most of the time, she returned empty-handed. The current of him seemed far, far away from her, so far that it had already exceeded the distance of 11 years.
But at the same time, he was so close to her.
Xian Guiying could stand up and take four or five steps to put her arms around him.
"You have indeed changed." Qin Gengxin said faintly."If you were from a few years ago, you would only be determined to choose your pride. You would rather continue chasing this dead end and not give up and say these words to me."
Xian Guiying stared into his eyes."People change. Most of the time, it's not a good thing to be too stubborn. That's why I learned to take it lightly."
Qin Gengxin looked at her with a smile that was not a smile and suddenly changed the topic."I heard that you were used to smoking."
This was the last thing Xian Guiying wanted to discuss. In the years when Qin Gengxin deliberately avoided her, she miraculously learned to smoke. She smoked a small pack of female cigarettes almost every day until she got pregnant.
While she was at home, to cover up her pregnancy, she even once smoked in front of the Xian Family and Jiang Ruolan. However, after Jiang Ruolan found out about it, she took out her cigarette. After that, Xian Guiying found out that the pregnant woman couldn't smoke, so she gradually stopped touching the thing.
After Qin Wenqian was born, she had completely given up on smoking.
Xian Guiying thought Qin Gengxin didn't pay attention to her life in those years, and he also didn't know what had happened to her. She thought that he never knew about the bad habits she had.
Xian Guiying lowered her head and remained silent.
"Don't smoke anymore, there are a lot of harmful effects on women when they smoke." Qin Gengxin continued, just glancing at her before saying, "I'll think about what you just said. Go to sleep."
He looked at her again, then entered the study.
Qin Gengxin didn't come out at all, all night. Xian Guiying knew that he had many company matters needed to handle and was very busy.
Qin Wenqian slept soundly and did not wake up in the middle of the night because she took medicine before returning home.
Xian Guiying woke up at six in the morning and touched her daughter's forehead. Seeing that Qin Wenqian's fever had subsided and she was sleeping soundly, Xian Guiying quietly lifted the blanket and carefully propped herself up against the chair and table. Finally, she walked to the bathroom with her hands against the wall.
She could hear Qin Gengxin talking on the phone in the study. She thought she heard him calling 'grandma. ' Immediately, she remembered that Qin Gengxin's parents and the Old Woman had left after staying for a few days near the Qin Corporation. She didn't ask if they had returned to China or where they had gone.
The soundproofing of the room was very good, but the bathroom was somewhat quiet, so she could faintly hear some sounds in the study next door during the quiet hours of the morning. She could not clearly hear the details of the conversation, and she did not intend to listen again.
Xian Guiying went to the bathroom to wash her hands and face. Once she's done and was about to walk out of the bathroom, she was unaware of the traces of water on the tiles under her feet. She slipped and fell to the ground with a soft groan.
Qin Gengxin was currently answering the phone in his study. His parents had taken the Old Woman on a trip to Argentina for more than two weeks, not intending to return to their country of origin. They planned to return to Boston to visit him again.
As he was talking, he heard a sound coming from the bathroom. He faintly heard Xian Guiying's voice and looked in the direction of the bathroom. With that, he got up and walked out.
