Chapter 538 - I Did Not Instigate Everything That Happened Today, Nor Was It Planned By Me (1/2)
Xian Guiying immediately choked on the apple and coughed. She turned her head and opened her eyes wide. ”You guys talk, don't mind me. I was bored and just came to check on my brother's condition.”
As she spoke, she continued to bite the apple and secretly glared at Xian Zihao, who was laughing lightly.
Xian Zihao just smiled faintly. He knew how serious Xian Guiying was at the company, but at the same time, she could still act like a big child here. Xian Zihao didn't tease Xian Guiying anymore and just glanced at Qin Gengxin thoughtfully.
Qin Gengxin pretended not to notice Xian Zihao's gaze and took two more sips of tea. After placing the cup, he crossed his arms and watched the sunset. ”It's getting late. I didn't notice it when we first played.”
”Then stay for dinner before leaving. Zhengsheng, you stay here after dinner. I have something to discuss with you.”
Wei Zhengsheng nodded. ”OK.”
However, Xian Guiying frowned. ”Brother Wei rode my car here, he didn't drive. If you want him to stay after dinner, then I'll be waiting for him, right. I couldn't go home late. Qianqian, that spoiled girl can't sleep without me.”
She vaguely felt that Xian Zihao seemed to have some sort of conspiracy. She frowned as she looked at him.
Xian Zihao immediately glanced at Qin Gengxin, who was about to put on his suit jacket. ”Isn't that simple? Leave your car keys and let Zhengsheng drive your car home later.”
Xian Guiying was about to ask, 'then what about me?', but then she stopped and pursed her lips. Clearly, she understood the meaning of Xian Zihao's words.
Qin Gengxin could hear the implicit meaning behind Xian Zihao's words and said nothing. He just snorted in disapproval, as if he was embarrassed by his actions.
”Gengxin.” Xian Zihao saw the disdain in Qin Gengxin's eyes and smiled. ”You don't need me to remind you of this, do you?”
”You don't have to say anything.” Qin Gengxin glared at him and said in an unfriendly tone.
Xian Guiying put the apple core in her hand and said softly, ”This is the perfect time to take a taxi. America is not like China, where you only can take a taxi until six or seven at night. I can just take a taxi.”
Without waiting for Xian Zihao to say anything, Qin Gengxin glanced at her. ”You want me to invite you?”
Xian Guiying looked at him expressionlessly. ”I'm not used to sitting in the same place other women often sit. Is there a problem?”
Qin Gengxin instantly frowned. ”What other woman?”
Xian Guiying just pursed her lips and didn't explain. She stood up and said to Xian Zihao and Wei Zhengsheng, ”My hands are a bit sticky, I need to wash them. You guys continue chatting.”
With that, she turned and walked away as if she couldn't see Qin Gengxin.
Qin Gengxin looked at her back with a strange expression. When Xian Zihao started laughing, he suddenly turned his body around and asked with a ferocious expression, ”What are you laughing at?”
Xian Zihao just smiled and shook his head. After that, he sipped the tea in his cup, put it down, and said in a way that was neither quick nor slow. ”It's been eleven years, this is the first time I've seen our Guiying attitude towards you, Qin Gengxin. It's so difficult.”
Wei Zhengsheng didn't say anything. He just pursed his lips casually and looked at Qin Gengxin's angry face, which was completely darkened because of Xian Zihao's words.
He then suddenly opened his mouth and laughed, ”A heart that has been burning for 11 years has finally been frozen by a block of ice. It's not easy to thaw again.”
