Chapter 569 - Since You’re Married, Let’s Not Care About Some Random Girls Outside
When Qin Gengxin arrived at the bathroom door, he saw Xian Guiying leaning against the edge of the marble sink. She didn"t fall completely because of the support from her arms, but it was obvious she was unable to stand up because of the pain from her ankle.
Qin Gengxin walked over and held her waist with both hands, helping her up. At the same time, her pajamas was lifted slightly and his hands touched her skin.
His hand accidentally touched the scar she had suffered when she was injured many years ago.
Qin Gengxin lowered his head to look at her. The moment Xian Guiying was helped to her feet, she immediately reached out to the marble counter beside her. She gasped for breath and said, "I"m sorry, I almost fell because I didn"t see the water on the ground. I didn"t disturb your call, did I?"
Qin Gengxin pulled his hand from her waist and stepped back. "How did you know I"m talking on the phone?"
Xian Guiying calmly pointed to the bathroom wall. "This place is too close to the study and very quiet in the morning. When I went to the toilet, I could hear something."
Qin Gengxin only nodded his head and remained standing at his place. Seeing Xian Guiying just standing on the marble sink, he immediately said. "Don"t stand there stupidly. I"ll help you get back to your bed."
He didn"t wait for Xian Guiying to speak and immediately held her arm with one hand, while the other wrapped around her shoulder and helped her out.
It wasn"t until Xian Guiying sat on the edge of the bed that Qin Wenqian rolled over in her blanket and turned her cute little head towards her. She was still sound asleep.
Qin Gengxin glanced at his daughter and said, "You--"
"Shh!" Xian Guiying raised her finger and held it to her mouth, indicating for him to be quiet.
Qin Gengxin looked at Qin Wenqian again, then lowered his voice. "My parents took the Old Woman to Argentina for a while. Since Argentina is not far from the United States, they decided to return to Boston to rest before returning home."
Xian Guiying calmly replied, "Oh."
Seeing there was nothing wrong with her expression, Qin Gengxin added, "They would stay here."
Xian Guiying froze for a moment. She had originally thought that they might come staying here after hearing his words. However, she still hoped that they would stay at the hotel nearest to his company because they missed their son.
Xian Guiying was not someone who disrespects the elderly, nor was she someone who would reject them. She was able to accept Mrs. Qin and Qin Xiaowen. After all, regardless of her temper, she was still a reasonable person. As for the Old Woman…
Xian Guiying frowned and asked, "They won"t get another dog, will they? You know Qianqian"s body too …"
"No, I"ll tell my parents that our daughter is allergic to animal fur so they can tell the Old Woman. That way, you don"t have to worry about hurting the Old Woman"s heart, and you don"t have to worry about Qianqian."
Hearing Qin Gengxin"s words, Xian Guiying sighed in relief.
The reason she didn"t say it in front of the people of the Qin Family was that she didn"t want to hurt the Old Woman"s heart. Since they knew about it, it would be fine as long as she could avoid such a situation from happening again.
Still, since the Old Woman wanted to stay here for a few more days, Xian Guiying just had to bear it a little longer until she left.
However, she was still unclear about something. The Xian Family and the Qin Family were also considered old friends, so Qin Xiaowen and Mrs. Qin will definitely not look down on or reject her. But why did the Old Woman seem to dislike her?
When the Old Woman mentioned her grandfather, Xian Guiying clearly remembered the Old Woman"s expression. She was gritting her teeth in anger.
Xian Guiying nodded, and Qin Gengxin left the room to change his clothes. Today is Monday, and he has to go to the office.
Just as he turned around, Xian Guiying suddenly asked, "Do my grandfather and your grandmother know each other?"
Qin Gengxin stopped and turned his head to look at her. "Why do you ask?"
"Oh, nothing, I"m just asking." The corner of Xian Guiying"s mouth twitched when she suddenly realized how gossipy she was.

"Boss, Mrs. Bai will come to see you at 2 o"clock this afternoon. Should we postpone our meeting with Mr. Hao?" Huang Jingguo asked as he placed the doc.u.ments on the table.
Qin Gengxin was in the middle of a video conversation with an old friend from UK. After hearing Huang Jingguo"s voice, he glanced at him, then smiled at his friend before saying a few more words to the screen and said goodbye.
Then he casually pressed a b.u.t.ton on the computer and turned to pick up the doc.u.ment Huang Jingguo just delivered.
"What is Mrs. Bai doing here? I don"t remember making an appointment with her."
"I"m also not sure, but Mrs. Bai is a special case, after all. You always want to work with her, so she called this morning and told me to arrange a meeting with you because she can"t contact you. She will be here at two o"clock." Huang Jingguo looked at Qin Gengxin and said, "Apparently ... It has something to do with her daughter ..."
Qin Gengxin"s hand that had just opened the doc.u.ment suddenly stopped. He raised his head and looked at him. "What"s with that expression?"
Huang Jingguo chuckled. "No, boss, you also know it too. I"ve been by your side for years and I just found out about your marriage recently, so I"m quite excited about it."
"Crazy, I"ve discovered that you have a wife recently although I went to your wedding. By the way, how did your wife educate you? So gossipy like a woman." Qin Gengxin glanced at him with a nonchalant expression.
"What I meant is…" Huang Jingguo cleared his throat and said with a bold expression, "When I accompanied my wife to the maternity exam, I saw the child moving on the screen. It"s only been three months and she can move. It"s just that my wife can"t feel it. I have come to know that this life is so magical."
"So?"
Huang Jingguo was usually very straightforward, but he had been doing these roundabout things a little too often. Qin Gengxin was used to it. He flipped through the doc.u.ments in his hands and looked at the data.
"Boss, how long have you and Xian Guiying been married? When will you have a child? If she is pregnant, you should spend her entire pregnancy with her. I read some books and realized that when a woman is pregnant, it is arguably the most fragile and greatest time in her life. She began to give birth to a little life in her womb, and you should accompany her. Accompanying her do every test, feel the baby grow in her womb little by little, and feel the baby"s first movements. You will surely find yourself the happiest man in the world!"
"So, boss, since you"re married, let"s not care about some random girls outside. Mrs. Bai"s daughter is indeed young and beautiful, but Xian Guiying isn"t bad either. She"s also capable and beautiful, and she"s Xian Enterprise"s boss. It"s better not to do something like have two ships on yourself."
