Chapter 532 - Can’t You As Her Junior Try Your Best To Tolerate Her
Perhaps it was because the Old Woman was amused by her grandson, when she turned head and looked at Xian Guiying, she didn"t have any ugly expression. She just glanced at her before snorting, "You"re finally awake."
"Grandmother, it"s morning. How about your sleep last night?" Xian Guiying walked confidently. Without looking at Qin Gengxin, she went and took the empty cup from the Old Woman"s hand.
"It"s not bad. When we were in G City, Xiaowen deliberately gave me a hard bed according to my preferences. Because I lived a rough life when I was a child, I used to sleep on a hard bed. Yet, even if the bed in your guest room is soft, it"s still quite comfortable." As the Old Woman spoke, her gaze swept Xian Guiying, who was still smiling before shifting to Qin Gengxin. "Gengxin, why don"t you bring the child down? Is Wenqian not up yet?"
Asked about his child, Qin Gengxin turned to look at Xian Guiying. Xian Guiying didn"t want the Old Woman to suspect anything, so she sat down next to her and raised her head with a smile as she said, "Wenqian has been up for a long time, but she"s playing with the servant in her room. Grandma, please don"t be offended by what happened yesterday."
The Old Woman looked at her, accepted her explanation, and didn"t say anything else.
The reason why Xian Guiying didn"t bring Qin Wenqian down was that there were too many strangers, and she couldn"t get used to it. Another reason was that Qin Wenqian was allergic to pets, and because of the small white Labrador Retriever at the Old Woman"s feet, Xian Guiying should prevent Qin Wenqian from having too much contact with her.
Also, Qin Gengxin hadn"t been home for two years, so when Qin Wenqian suddenly saw her father, the unconcealable joy she felt would definitely let the people from the Qin Family see through her. This was something that Xian Guiying did not wish for. In order to prevent any mishap from happening, she could only have the servant accompany Qin Wenqian in her room as time pa.s.sed.
When Qin Xiaowen and Mrs. Qin had gone downstairs, Dalisay and Darna were busy preparing breakfast.
Xian Guiying didn"t eat her breakfast first. She used clean chopsticks to pick up some dishes for the seniors. Since the Old Woman was accustomed to eating Chinese food, today"s breakfast was Chinese food. There was some steamed bread and porridge.
When she sat down again, she was about to start eating when the Dumpling Soup was brought over from the plate in front of her.
She paused, turning her head to look at Qin Gengxin, who had a natural expression. Thinking that he was pretending to act as if they were a normal couple in front of the people of the Qin Family, Xian Guiying faintly smiled, lowered her head, and ate the dumpling.
After that, Mrs. Qin insisted on seeing Qin Wenqian, and Qin Gengxin happened to have received a phone call at the time. There was an urgent problem in the company, so he left in a hurry after breakfast.
In the evening, Xian Guiying asked Darna and Dalisay to clean up the dog"s fur that was left behind in the living room when she heard the sound of a car from outside. When Qin Gengxin walked through the door, he saw two servants cleaning the dog"s fur on the carpet. "What are you doing? I remember you used to love those little cats and dogs."
Xian Guiying didn"t answer his question, she just replied, "Grandmother and dad saw that you were too busy, so they just called the driver to take them to a hotel near Qin"s, and they said they wanted to stay there for two days, so they could see you."
Qin Gengxin looked at his cell phone. He had a meeting at the company, so he set up mute mode and then forgot to return the ringtone mode. Only then did he see the missed calls.
Then when he returned, he saw the carpet had been cleaned. Xian Guiying also checked to see if there was any dog fur on the carpet. He frowned and asked, "Xian Guiying, since when did you become like this?
Xian Guiying immediately raised her head and said, "Qin Gengxin, before I get angry, you better pay attention to your att.i.tude!"
Having known him for almost eleven years, Xian Guiying had never been so cold or so impatient with him. Qin Gengxin immediately stared into her mist-like eyes, his brows gradually furrowed.
Xian Guiying stood up immediately and turned around to look around the couch. The seriousness in her eyes was obvious.
Qin Gengxin frowned. "The Old Woman indeed has a bad temper, but she"s still an eighty years old woman. She"s been bratty and stubborn all her life. As long as that"s not a matter of principle, can"t you as her junior try your best to tolerate her? It"s just a dog, but look at you, what"s with this att.i.tude?!"
Xian Guiying picked up the pillow on the couch, her fingers caressing the pillow silently, but she didn"t explain or even look at him.
If it weren"t for the fact that the Qin Family was here yesterday, she probably wouldn"t have had the chance to talk to Qin Gengxin at all. They even stayed together under the same roof.
Now that people from the Qin Family were not here, he will also be gone, so why should she answer his question and discuss this now?
For Qin Gengxin, the arrival of Qin Wenqian was the end of his life as he was forced to marry Xian Guiying. He never cared for his daughter and never even looked at her. He bought toys for the children of others but never bought plastic dolls for his daughter. So, why did Xian Guiying have to explain so much to him?
Seeing that Xian Guiying just ignored him in silence, Qin Gengxin"s gaze immediately became colder.
He still remembered that he had brought her to a night market many years ago, where there were many small vendors selling pets. Although Xian Guiying usually looks cold, she was very fond of the little animal. Even though she was twenty-two years old at the time, she was still squatting next to some cages, touching kittens, puppies, and hamsters with beautiful smiles on her face. She even said that these little pets were too pitiful, and she really wanted to carry them all back.
At that time, Qin Gengxin laughed at her. In this world, there were too many small pets that were being sold every day.
Xian Guiying also said that he had no sympathy at all and that these little pets were too cute, she really meant to buy two to accompany her at her house.
It was back then, but now, just because the Old Woman likes dogs, she bought a puppy to live with them for a day or two. How could she, Xian Guiying, be so annoyed with it?
Did she hate the dog, or was she rejecting everything that had to do with his grandmother?
Just being together with the Old Woman and her pet for one day was already enough to make Xian Guiying being so unreasonable and unfeeling. After the Old Woman left, she started cleaning up the place like a germaphobe.
This caused the s.p.a.ce between Qin Gengxin"s eyebrows to tighten further as he looked at her with a slightly cold look.
