Chapter 617 - She Didn’t Want To See A Second Qin Wenqian, Let Alone See A Second Herself (1/2)
The petite woman did not expect anyone to help her. When she turned to look at Xian Guiying, her face was slightly pale, but her eyes were still full of gratitude. ”Thank you.”
”Are you okay?” Xian Guiying smiled kindly at her and said, ”Don't cry anymore. It's very hot outside. You will suffer from scorching heat if you stand here for so long. Sit in my shop first and drink some water.”
Xian Guiying helped the woman enter her shop and poured water for her. When she handed it to her, she saw her face was pale.
”Did you see it?” The woman muttered to herself, ”I feel like I was dying just now.”
Xian Guiying pursed her lips and poured water for herself. She looked at the woman for a moment and then whispered, ”Love can't kill someone. Even if you're so upset and feel like you wanted to die, it depends on whether the other party worth it or not.”

Wei Shanyuan had just returned from Li Valley with his colleagues and had just returned to the hotel where he was staying, but before he could enter the door, he abruptly stopped. He saw a silver-gray car parked on the side of the road.
The window was dark, and he couldn't see the people inside.
However, Wei Shanyuan somehow felt something was wrong. As if he could feel someone looking at him from inside.
He looked at the car several times, not knowing if anyone was in it or not. Only when his colleagues nudged him and urged him to go inside, did he walk to the hotel. He felt a slight unease.
Upon returning to the hotel, he showered and changed his clothes. He chatted with his colleagues for a while before taking the opportunity to leave. When he looked at the side of the road again, the silver-gray car that had been parked was no longer there.
He didn't know if he was overthinking, but he still took out his phone to call Wei Zhengsheng. Once the call was connected, he immediately asked, ”Has there been any news about Qin Gengxin recently? Is he still in the United States?”
However, the one who answered the call was not Wei Zhengsheng but Secretary Dai. She was in the office, cleaning Wei Zhengsheng's table when she heard his phone ring. She answered instinctively, not expecting to hear such a question.
Secretary Dai was stunned for a moment before replying, ”I'm sorry, President Wei is in a meeting.”
Wei Shanyuan immediately swore in a low voice. No one entered Wei Zhengsheng's office casually, and he didn't think his secretary was in the office at the moment. He paused, then quickly hung up the phone after saying a few words.
As he spoke, he looked in the direction of Wuyuan Street. Could it be that he was too worried?

Xian Guiying chatted with the petite woman as she cleaned her display cabinet with a wet cloth. She listened to the petite woman talks about the story between her and her husband.
They were together because of some circumstances. They were young at that time and every day, the woman would follow the man without a fuss, accompanying him.
Slowly, they both fall in love with each other, but the man started to distance himself from her due to some misunderstanding. However, the petite woman was pregnant and had to get married due to pressure from both parents. Not long after their marriage, the man had an affair with an outsider. The woman soon lost her baby and for the next two years, the man did not return home frequently, leaving his wife behind.
