Chapter 510 – She Really Treats You Like A Stranger

Seeing her daughter's craving and sad face, Xian Guiying finally said, "Daddy went to a faraway place. He's busy at work and can't come back to accompany Qianqian for the time being. Baby, can you wait?"

Knowing that she had a father, Qin Wenqian looked happier. She would hug her doll and talk to herself, saying that her father would come back to play with her.

A moment ago, Xian Guiying had withdrawn from such a good chance for Qin Wenqian to meet her father.

If she were here by herself, even if Qin Gengxin were cold, she wouldn't mind. However, she didn't want Qin Wenqian to see her father being cold in this kind of unprepared situation.

Qin Gengxin had been indifferent to her and her child for the past two years, and she didn't want his appearance to bring harm to her child.

After all, Qin Wenqian's health wasn't good enough to withstand any sort of stimulation.

Rather than having a huge disappointment, it was better not to have any hope at all.

Qin Gengxin was still Qin Gengxin, but he was no longer the Qin Gengxin who used to treat her as a sister.

Ever since she got pregnant.

No, or rather, since he knew that she liked him. He deliberately kept his distance until that night. Because of the moment of selfishness and confusion, everything had been ruined. The both of them could never go back to that time.

New York. This city. Xian Guiying remembered the two of them drinking beer together here many years ago, telling stories and jokes about her brother, Xian Zihao.

Qin Gengxin, who was originally indifferent to others but was very close to friends, hiding his heart more cautious and wise than anyone else under the surface. He was no longer the man she remembered from her memory. A man who could always make her smile.

He had avoided her as if she were a monster. For the past two years, he even canceled a major collaboration between Qin Corporation and Xian Enterprise.

How much hatred and disgust must he have towards her?

Xian Guiying had thought that her twenty years of life had been in vain, perhaps because she was still as naive as ever. It was only today that she suddenly realized it.

Perhaps hatred and resentment did not fully express his attitude toward her.

Jiang Ruolan once asked her, how long will she last like this?

At the time, Xian Guiying had said that she would persevere until she felt tired.

Perhaps, it wouldn't be long before she could completely bury this relationship that had persisted for eleven years.

She was tired, tired to the point that she, Qin Wenqian, and the two servants were the only ones in the family. Xian Guiying was used to hugging her daughter when she fell asleep, running between the company and home, used to not having Qin Gengxin in her life or in her thoughts.

In fact, she knew a lot of things.

If it wasn't for the fact that she was Xian Zihao's sister, if it wasn't for the fact she was Jiang Ruolan's sister-in-law, if it wasn't for the fact she was the granddaughter of the Xian Family, maybe Qin Gengxin would treat her as one night-stand and not marry her at all.

"Thanks for buying with us. Please come again, miss."

Xian Guiying took the doll and looked at it several times before putting the box back in the bag.

Just as she was about to leave, she saw that the Bentley had returned to the street and was parked in front of the children's toy store.

The window behind was slowly lowered, revealing a very handsome face she had not seen in some time.

"Do you want to take a ride?" Qin Gengxin raised his eyebrow and looked at her with a cold smile.

That face was particularly handsome under the afternoon sun, but the smile on his lips carried a hint of cold evil.

He seemed to be the same Qin Gengxin from before. He always had a lewd smile on his face and seemed to be pulling the strings of a woman's heart. However, no one could see through his true feelings.

Xian Guiying held the doll she bought for her daughter and looked at him as if she were looking at a stranger. After not seeing him for two years, he would suddenly return. Who knows what he's up to?

Qin Wenqian and Secretary Dai were still waiting for her at the dessert shop. Xian Guiying only paused for a moment before she left without looking back. As if she hadn't seen Qin Gengxin at all and not even a slight expression showed on her face as she left.

Looking at Xian Guiying's leaving figure, the driver, who was Qin Gengxin's personal assistant and half-brother for all these years, Huang Jingguo, immediately moved his gaze away from the rearview mirror with a face full of astonishment.

He turned around to look outside the car, then looked at Qin Gengxin, who still had a faint cold smile on his face but was indifferent to her departure. "Wow, this Xian Guiying really lives up to her reputation as a cold beauty."

"Eh? Boss, I remember her hanging out with you a lot in recent years. Aren't you two good friends? I've seen that you had canceled the collaboration between Qin Corporation and Xian Enterprise. Did something happen between the two of you?"

Huang Jingguo immediately continued asking with a sly smile, "Could it be that some love-hate relationship has happened? Let me guess. Boss, you must be bullying her. If not, why does she have such an expression now? She really treats you like a stranger."

"Drive the car. Why are you talking so much nonsense!" Qin Gengxin immediately rolled his eyes. He raised his arm to place it behind his head. He did not look back in the direction that Xian Guiying had left. He raised his eyebrow and said, "If I told you Xian Guiying is my wife now, do you believe me?"

Huang Jingguo glanced at the rearview mirror. "Hur Hur, it's not that I don't want to give you a face, but a smart woman like Xian Guiying, even normal men can't handle her. It's good enough that she didn't strip you naked and sell you for money, but to be your wife? Tsk, if I believe you, then I, Huang Jingguo, will write my name backwards!"

Qin Gengxin sniggered as he lowered his arms and tucked his shirt's collar. "I don't believe it either." He said flatly.

Huang Jingguo curiously glanced at the rearview mirror. Seeing the indifferent expression on Qin Gengxin's face, he asked, "Are we still going to Mrs. Bai's place? We're already late."

"Let's go." Qin Gengxin answered and casually picked up the toy in the car seat. In his mind, he saw a Barbie doll in Xian Guiying's hand.

After eating at a dessert shop with Qin Wenqian, Xian Guiying looked at the time and said, "Sister Dai, wait a minute. Please book a flight to Boston tomorrow. We'll be home tomorrow."

Secretary Dai was puzzled. "Why are you suddenly planning to go back? Didn't you say that you were going to bring Qianqian to play in New York City for a few more days?"

The car was long gone. Xian Guiying stared at the place where the car was parked and said softly, "I'm suddenly a little tired, I'm afraid Qianqian won't be able to hold any longer too. I'll be home early, and I also need to bring Qianqian for a checkup at the end of the month."

Secretary Dai looked in the direction Xian Guiying was looking, but she saw nothing unusual. She nodded and said, "Sure, I'll book it."

Qin Wenqian was playing with the Barbie doll next to Xian Guiying. Sensing her mother's silence, she tugged on her sleeve. "Mommy, mommy. This Barbie will call you daddy."

With that, she pressed her little hand on the doll's stomach and the doll immediately started giggling. Then, in a soft voice, Qin Wenqian spoke in English, "Father ~ Mother ~"
