Chapter 538 – I Did Not Instigate Everything That Happened Today, Nor Was It Planned By Me

Xian Guiying immediately choked on the apple and coughed. She turned her head and opened her eyes wide. "You guys talk, don't mind me. I was bored and just came to check on my brother's condition."

As she spoke, she continued to bite the apple and secretly glared at Xian Zihao, who was laughing lightly.

Xian Zihao just smiled faintly. He knew how serious Xian Guiying was at the company, but at the same time, she could still act like a big child here. Xian Zihao didn't tease Xian Guiying anymore and just glanced at Qin Gengxin thoughtfully.

Qin Gengxin pretended not to notice Xian Zihao's gaze and took two more sips of tea. After placing the cup, he crossed his arms and watched the sunset. "It's getting late. I didn't notice it when we first played."

"Then stay for dinner before leaving. Zhengsheng, you stay here after dinner. I have something to discuss with you."

Wei Zhengsheng nodded. "OK."

However, Xian Guiying frowned. "Brother Wei rode my car here, he didn't drive. If you want him to stay after dinner, then I'll be waiting for him, right. I couldn't go home late. Qianqian, that spoiled girl can't sleep without me."

She vaguely felt that Xian Zihao seemed to have some sort of conspiracy. She frowned as she looked at him.

Xian Zihao immediately glanced at Qin Gengxin, who was about to put on his suit jacket. "Isn't that simple? Leave your car keys and let Zhengsheng drive your car home later."

Xian Guiying was about to ask, 'then what about me?', but then she stopped and pursed her lips. Clearly, she understood the meaning of Xian Zihao's words.

Qin Gengxin could hear the implicit meaning behind Xian Zihao's words and said nothing. He just snorted in disapproval, as if he was embarrassed by his actions.

"Gengxin." Xian Zihao saw the disdain in Qin Gengxin's eyes and smiled. "You don't need me to remind you of this, do you?"

"You don't have to say anything." Qin Gengxin glared at him and said in an unfriendly tone.

Xian Guiying put the apple core in her hand and said softly, "This is the perfect time to take a taxi. America is not like China, where you only can take a taxi until six or seven at night. I can just take a taxi."

Without waiting for Xian Zihao to say anything, Qin Gengxin glanced at her. "You want me to invite you?"

Xian Guiying looked at him expressionlessly. "I'm not used to sitting in the same place other women often sit. Is there a problem?"

Qin Gengxin instantly frowned. "What other woman?"

Xian Guiying just pursed her lips and didn't explain. She stood up and said to Xian Zihao and Wei Zhengsheng, "My hands are a bit sticky, I need to wash them. You guys continue chatting."

With that, she turned and walked away as if she couldn't see Qin Gengxin.

Qin Gengxin looked at her back with a strange expression. When Xian Zihao started laughing, he suddenly turned his body around and asked with a ferocious expression, "What are you laughing at?"

Xian Zihao just smiled and shook his head. After that, he sipped the tea in his cup, put it down, and said in a way that was neither quick nor slow. "It's been eleven years, this is the first time I've seen our Guiying attitude towards you, Qin Gengxin. It's so difficult."

Wei Zhengsheng didn't say anything. He just pursed his lips casually and looked at Qin Gengxin's angry face, which was completely darkened because of Xian Zihao's words.

He then suddenly opened his mouth and laughed, "A heart that has been burning for 11 years has finally been frozen by a block of ice. It's not easy to thaw again."

After being taunted by the two at the same time, Qin Gengxin's dark face suddenly turned clear, followed by an unapproved "Tch -" sound. With a look of disdain, he said, "The two of you truly lived up to the fact that you two have been colluding with each other at Xian Enterprise for so many years, being able to form a common enemy whenever you want."

"Is it?" Xian Zihao looked at Wei Zhengsheng with a smile. The latter also shrugged innocently.

After having dinner with Xian Zihao in the cafeteria, Xian Guiying really didn't want to ride Qin Gengxin's car. As she walked out of the rehabilitation center, she wanted to take a taxi but instead saw the usual black Bentley parked in front of the entrance.

Qin Gengxin had come out ten minutes ago and was obviously waiting for her.

She looked around for the taxi and then at the Bentley parked in front of her. As Xian Zihao said, he, Qin Gengxin, should not allow anyone else to send his wife home.

Xian Guiying simply walked over, opened the car door, and got in.

She put the bag aside, looked at the time, and immediately said, "Take me back. Qianqian must be crying right now when she saw I'm still not home. The child is too young, I don't trust her to be by someone else's side all day."

Qin Gengxin's right hand was on the steering wheel, while the other rested on the armrest. His fingers stopped drumming casually on the steering wheel when he heard Xian Guiying. He turned his head and looked at her.

Xian Guiying kept staring straight ahead, not looking at him.

"Why is Qianqian's physical fitness so poor since she one year old? I heard that you were breastfeeding her, so how could a child–"

"Drive the car. You never cared about these matters before, so stop asking; that does not concern you." Xian Guiying finally turned around and looked at him flatly, "Besides, what my brother did was only from his point of view. He wanted me to be happy, that's why he did it. I want to clarify one thing, I did not instigate everything that happened today, nor was it planned by me. President Qin, don't misunderstand again."

Her very unnecessary explanation made Qin Gengxin frown. He put a hand on his forehead and looked at her sideways as if he was trying to see through her expression and demeanor.

The car didn't start for a long time. Xian Guiying sat in silence for a moment and then let out a faint sigh. She took the bag next to her and was about to open the car door.

Just as her hand was about to open the car door, the car's lock was suddenly locked. Her hand paused by the door and she turned around to see Qin Gengxin's hand rise from the control panel. She looked up at his face and he started the engine, sending her home without saying a word.

Along the way, he didn't ask about the child's condition, nor did he say a word. Xian Guiying held her breath as she sat in his car, occasionally looking ahead and occasionally out the window.

His car…

Despite these two years, she still heard about Qin Gengxin. Almost every time he appeared in public, his partners were different. However, his car didn't have the slightest fragrance from a woman. On the other hand, it's so clean that it's hard to believe.

Xian Guiying felt it was a bit strange, so she just pressed her face against the window and peeked at Qin Gengxin through the rear-view mirror outside the window.

When he wasn't with his good brothers or anyone else, there was almost no smile on his face. The smile was always a layer of protection on his face, but under the mask, he always felt more subtle and distant.

Many years ago, when Xian Guiying was sitting in his car, she would usually stick her face against the window, look through the window and the rear-view mirror, trying her best to stealthily observe how he was driving.

Upon realizing that she had actually gotten used to it after so many years, Xian Guiying was stunned. Looking at his face and expression in the rear-view mirror, she pursed her lips and shifted her gaze away, staring at the moonlight outside the window.

As if he hadn't noticed her soft sigh, Qin Gengxin continued to stare straight ahead, unperturbed. He seemed to be deep in thought. It was hard to tell what he was thinking.
