Chapter 661 - The Crisis In Qin Corporation (1/2)

Wei Zhengsheng walked over, took his coat from the chair and laid it over her shoulder. ”The wind outside is so strong, go lie down.”

Xian Guiying looked at the coat on her shoulder, then raised her head to look at him. She smiled, then continued to look out the window. ”It's okay. The weather outside isn't bad today, there shouldn't be any wind. I'll stand for a while, then I'll go and lie down.”

”I know that this thing has a big impact on you, but Guiying, you have to think of others too. You can't help him anymore. Xian Enterprise is a business in your brother's name, you can't take risks arbitrarily. You had helped him a few years ago. Even if your brother doesn't mind the fact that the other party is Qin Gengxin, you should know that you almost put the entire Xian Enterprise at risk just because of your impulse.”

Xian Guiying didn't say anything. She just stood by the window and stared at the green tree in silence. ”I know.”

She already owed too much to Xian Zihao. Even though he was her own brother, that was not his place to pay for everything she had done. Even though Xian Zihao wanted to, she knew she shouldn't.

Xian Guiying had spent three years making up for the losses incurred by Xian Enterprise that year. Qin Gengxin also knew that and in order not to complicate her and prevent her from getting involved, he signed the divorce agreement easily. How could she not know about it?

Seeing that she was very calm, but her mood was slightly affected, Wei Zhengsheng just stared at her. Out of a sudden, his phone rang. Then he went outside to answer the phone.

It was so quiet in the ward that you could hear a pin drop. Wei Zhengsheng's fluent English could be heard outside the ward.

Xian Guiying gently placed both her hands on the window sill. Next to her hand was a green cactus. She slowly touched it.

She only returned to her senses when her finger was stung. Her gaze was focused on the cactus, and the memory of Qin Gengxin hugging her shoulder and claiming her to be his little sister years ago, with a face full of contempt, was playing in her mind.

At that time, he was looking at her. ”Little Ying, do you know why no one dares to chase after you?”

”Because I'm ugly?”

”With your beautiful face, who would dare call you ugly? I have to kill him!” He happily stroked his chin, raised his eyebrows, and said in a serious tone, ”You woman, you are like a cactus. You stab anyone you see with your thorn. Who dares to provoke you?”

Xian Guiying silently brushed off his hand and said, ”There's even a rose with thorns on it. Why do I have to be a cactus?”

”Roses are very fragile. You are much stronger than those roses that can turn soft with a pinch.”

Xian Guiying's finger was pierced until it bled. She lifted her bleeding finger and put it in her mouth while staring at the cactus without moving.

Qin Corporation Building.

”Boss!” Huang Jingguo hurriedly walked out of the company's round door.

Qin Gengxin got out of the car and took a stack of files from his hand. As he looked at it, he said, ”Which partners haven't withdrawn their funds yet?”

Huang Jingguo followed him from behind and said, ”There are three left, but those three are the cooperation cases from many years ago. They don't have much profit, they are just friendly partners and can't help us save the current crisis. Boss, Mrs. Bai's secretary called your office yesterday, but you weren't there. I picked up, he said …”

Qin Gengxin stopped and turned his body to look at him coldly. ”What did he say?”

After a moment of hesitation, Huang Jingguo whispered, ”They have evidence of the corporation of Chinese arms with Mr. Johnson over a year ago. If you don't meet Mrs. Bai personally in New York, she will report this evidence to the Chinese government. Boss, although our company was established in the United States, we are still Chinese citizens!”

Qin Gengxin closed the files in his hand. ”What a good information she had.”

He walked into the elevator and said, ”Mr. Johnson's arms dealing had nothing to do with us. I already vetoed this project over a year ago. Where did the evidence come from? Is there a spy in our company? You should go and check if there are any new people from other departments who would rather be stationed at Qin's. Also, call those who have worked with us to the conference room.”
