Chapter 706 - Going Back I

Chapter 706 - Going Back I


"Qin Gengxin, you rascal!" Xian Guiying pushed him away. Qin Gengxin immediately grabbed her wrist and forcefully kissed her lips. He only let her go after he had been satisfied, and under her gaze, he got up, went around Qin Wenqian, lay down on the other side, and pulled both of them into his embrace.


There was a sense of belonging that made Xian Guiying's wandering heart calm down. When she saw him hugging her and the child, she smiled.


Early in the morning the next day, Qin Wenqian had just opened her eyes and stared at Qin Gengxin with her wide eyes.


When Qin Gengxin opened his eyes, he noticed the girl was staring at him. Qin Wenqian was shocked.


Qin Gengxin smiled at her and kept staring into her eyes.


Qin Wenqian opened her mouth in shock and blinked her big eyes. Then, she shouted with a face full of surprise. "Mommy! Mommy!"


"Mommy left in the morning, and now daddy is with you." Qin Gengxin smiled as he stood up and picked up the panicked little girl. "Are you hungry? Mommy should buy breakfast on the way. Daddy will accompany you to wash your face, hmm?"


"No!" Qin Wenqian struggled in his arms. "I want my mommy!"


Seeing that the child didn't particularly reject him but refused to get close to him, and fearing that it would hurt her, Qin Gengxin didn't hug her too hard. Qin Wenqian struggled to get out of his embrace, then hurriedly jumped off the bed and ran to the washroom. After using the washroom, she walked out with her pants up and turned around to see Qin Gengxin looking at her. She raised her head high. "How long are you going to stay here?"


"How long for what?" Qin Gengxin smiled.


"How long will you be with my mommy? When are you leaving?"


The child asked what an adult should ask. Qin Gengxin felt a stabbing pain in his heart.


In Qin Wenqian's mind, he would only be with them for a few days, then walk away and disappear. No matter how much she thought about how much she needed her father, he would never show up.


Qin Gengxin crouched down and grabbed her arm. "Qianqian, come here. Come to daddy."


She flung his hand away somewhat angrily. "I don't want to!"


"Daddy won't leave. I'll never leave you guys. Trust me, okay?" He said patiently.


Qin Wenqian, on the other hand, glared at him with a doubtful expression on her face.


Qin Gengxin immediately pulled the child into his arms and stared at her stubborn little face. "Why are you harder to deal with than your mommy? You see, you know that your daddy is bankrupt now. Do you have the heart to push your daddy like this? Do you have the heart to push daddy away from you?"


Qin Wenqian frowned in confusion. "So, do you want to rely on my mommy for a living?"


Qin Gengxin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Yes!"


Qin Wenqian stared at him, as if she really felt sorry for him. She hesitated for a moment before lifting her chubby little hand and stroking her father's head gently. "Then you must listen to me. Otherwise, mommy will not give you food to eat."


Qin Gengxin: "..."


At this moment, the door opened, and Xian Guiying, who returned from her morning run, entered with breakfast in hand. When Qin Wenqian saw her, she pushed Qin Gengxin away from her and ran in front of Xian Guiying. She shouted while pointing at Qin Gengxin. "Mommy, daddy said he'll eat with us because he's bankrupt! Otherwise, he will starve to death. Don't get mad at him!"


As soon as Xian Guiying entered the house, she heard Qin Wenqian's words and couldn't help but laugh. Qin Gengxin's face darkened like a pot lid as he tapped the little girl's forehead and said, "Spoiled girl, you seemed very happy that your daddy went bankrupt!"


Qin Wenqian did not know the concept of money. She only knew that Qin Gengxin would only have food if he was with her mother, so she ran to Xian Guiying's legs and said with a fawning expression, "Mommy, daddy is already very sad, should we forgive him? If not, he will starve to death."


Xian Guiying smiled. "What do you think?"


Qin Wenqian looked at Qin Gengxin over her shoulder. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "Let me think ..."


Qin Gengxin was exasperated. Think about what? He had thought that this brat could change her straightforward attitude from pity to forgiveness, but in the end, she actually said that she still needed to think about it.


"Spoiled girl." Sighing, he walked over and glanced at the breakfast in Xian Guiying's hand. "How far did you run? Your habit of running in the morning hasn't changed over the years."


Xian Guiying was stunned for a moment as she turned around to glance at him.


She had almost forgotten what had happened on her first-morning run. At that time, when Xian Zihao had just left the United States, she had taken over the first big, thorny case that Xian Enterprise had encountered, and because she didn't want to ask Xian Zihao for help, she had tried to put on a brave front, but at that time, she was almost forced to withdraw. Xian Enterprise had suffered a huge loss due to her trying to put on a brave front and a wrong decision.


It was Qin Gengxin, who came to her door and talked to her for the whole night, forcing her to gather her spirits and go out with him for the morning run the next morning. He said that when people live in this world, no matter what they do, they must be spirited in the beginning, and when people think too much about things, of course, everything becomes a mess. First of all, she couldn't be so depressed if she wanted to save things. She had to be spirited up first, and the first step was to drag her out into the morning run.


Ever since then, Xian Guiying had mysteriously gotten used to running in the morning. On the other hand, Qin Gengxin didn't seem to have the habit of running in the morning like her. At that time, it was obvious that he only wanted her to go for a walk in the morning and not stay at home.


Xian Guiying just smiled. "Let's have breakfast."


Xian Guiying then sent Qin Wenqian off to the kindergarten bus downstairs. Before going back upstairs, she called Secretary Dai and only returned after she finished her call.


However, just as she entered the house, her phone rang again. Qin Gengxin was currently in the study. Seeing that the number was Zhan An's, she took her phone to the balcony.


"Mom?"


"Guiying, your brother came home yesterday, but he didn't immediately return to H City. I just called him, and he said that he will arrive in H City this afternoon. Ruolan is also with her children at Xian Residence. Nanny Cheng went to the hospital with me to meet your grandfather."


"Guiying, mom is too old now. I am in my fifties and already menopause. My body is already feeling uncomfortable. If I am healthy enough, I'll fly to America to see you and the child. It's been a long time since you've gone home. Even though you don't want to see the Old Man, don't you want to see your mother too?"


Only then did Xian Guiying realize that even her mother was already old.


The flight from Beijing to Boston was a long journey. Zhan An, who was often not in good health, couldn't fly for too long.


It's been years already. Should she forget all the grievances in her heart and start to learn to forgive?


Xian Guiying's grip on the cell phone tightened. She bit her lip, looked at the blue sky, and softly said, "Mom, I'm going back now."


When Zhan An heard that, she smiled. "I know you are a good child. Guiying, your grandfather..."


"I know he's in the hospital. My brother told me. Mom, don't worry, everything will be fine. "


Old Man Xian was already so old. He fought everywhere when he was young, and his body was tough at that time, but no matter how tough he was, he was still just a human being. There would still be a day when he would fall.


That's right, he was already old. She really should go back.
