Chapter 530 - A Moment Of Carelessness
When Qin Gengxin woke up in the morning, he looked around the room in confusion. He didn"t know whether he was dreaming or not. In his memory, there was a woman with him. He didn"t know if the woman was someone he met on the street or someone he knew.
A month and a half later, there was a meeting among business people. That time Qin Gengxin came alone and when he met Xian Guiying again, his gaze followed her, carrying a slight hint of probing and suspicion.
He wondered if he would get the slightest impression of what had happened that night.
He wondered if he would remember for one moment and could identify the ident.i.ty of the woman.
Xian Guiying only knew that Qin Gengxin had been too busy recently with Kelsey and had rarely attended events. She had heard that he had recently been preparing to return to China and that he was going back to do some important investment projects. He might be there for a while.
This was the last time she saw him before he went to China. At that time, when Xian Guiying entered the meeting room, Qin Gengxin was talking to the secretary about matters related to the company. His expression was very serious.
The place he was standing was the only path she had to take to get to her seat. Qin Gengxin was looking at Xian Guiying from the moment she entered, and as she was walked past him, her footsteps suddenly stopped,
Xian Guiying looked up and smiled. "President Qin, why are you standing here? Aren"t you going to sit down?"
Seeing her natural expression, as if nothing had happened, Qin Gengxin just raised his eyebrow as if he was unsure of something. Still, that was for a moment, and he smiled, "Guiying, are you all right? Your skin hasn"t looked good lately."
Even though she knew it was just a greeting, Xian Guiying just smiled and led her secretary to her seat.
Xian Guiying only knew that Qin Gengxin returned to China to invest, but she didn"t know which city he was actually visiting. Since she decided didn"t want anything to do with him anymore, she didn"t pay attention to the details and just focused on the company"s affairs.
When Xian Guiying came home, she felt drained. After taking a shower, she falls asleep on the bed without changing her clothes. When she woke up in the middle of the night, she received a call from Wei Zhengsheng saying that they have a contract to sign and needed her to come together. That night, she packed her things and went to Argentina with Wei Zhengsheng for four days before returning.
Finally, when she had free time, she suddenly remembered that she was supposed to take the pill, but it was already 72 hours, and she couldn"t eat it anymore, so she didn"t take it seriously.
Xian Guiying never thought her moment of carelessness would make her win a prize. After all, she had heard from a friend in the medical community that men had good stamina when they were drunk. The survival rate of his sperms was not as high as it would normally be. Even if the female partner were ovulating, she would not easily become pregnant.
However, when her menstrual cycle was a week late, Xian Guiying wondered in surprise if she was actually pregnant. After secretly buying a pregnancy test kit, she found there were two lines. That day, she didn"t go to the company but sat at home all morning. Her head ached and only three words were echoing in her head.
She was pregnant!
She shouldn"t have taken this as a fluke! No matter how busy she was at the time, how could she forget to take birth control pills? This kind of problem that only a little girl would ignore was actually happening to a woman that was almost 26 years old!
In the afternoon, Xian Guiying quietly went to the hospital for a blood test, and as a result, she was actually pregnant.
She was pregnant for a month.
Xian Guiying was initially a bit hesitant; after all, Qin Gengxin didn"t know about this. He was unconscious at the time, and she didn"t want him to know about it afterwards.
Should she tell him?
If he told her that he didn"t want this child, if he asked her to get rid of it...
Xian Guiying could not imagine this scene. She had never felt that with her personality, she would have any kind of motherly awareness, but when she found out that there was a small life secretly born in her womb, and because the child was Qin Gengxin and hers, she held her stomach with one hand, worried about how much trouble the unmarried pregnancy would cause to the Xian Family, and how much trouble it would cause to her future.
It wouldn"t be too good to hide it from Qin Gengxin, but on the other hand, she was very reluctant.
Since Xian Guiying found out about her pregnancy, she has been distracted for a week at the company. Luckily, Wei Zhengsheng was there, helping her manage a lot of things, so she took this opportunity to rest for a while and stayed home for a few days.
Finally, her emotions overcame her rationality. After a lot of consideration and with her life situation, even though she carried the life of the Xian Family on her own, it was not impossible for her to give her child a rich and happy family.
After going back and forth in the hospital for a while, she finally decided to give birth here. However, every time she thought about whether doing so would be unfair to Qin Gengxin, she would raise her hand to caress her belly. She could only try her best to calm her heart.
She and her child only added a burden to him. If necessary, she could take her child away from this place without causing him any trouble.
However, the news of Xian Zihao"s sudden marriage was like a bolt out of the blue, and the entire Xian Family was thrown into chaos. Even though her mother, who had always been in Boston, was not living with her because Xian Guiying was used to living alone, she would still come and accompany her from time to time. After hearing about Xian Zihao"s marriage, her mother returned to the country in a hurry.
Until the Mid-Autumn Festival, when her mother called her to ask her to come home, saying that she hadn"t returned home for a long time, the Old Man missed her and that she should meet her new sister-in-law.
Xian Guiying had no plans to return because she knew how the Old Man"s att.i.tude was towards her and how his att.i.tude was towards Cui Luixian. Moreover, the Old Man would never say that he missed her.
However, when she casually asked her mother what her sister-in-law"s name was, her mother said that her name was Jiang Ruolan.
Her name was Jiang Ruolan.
Jiang Ruolan.
Was it a coincidence that they all had the same name, or was life always so dramatic?
