Chapter 721 - Untitled (1/2)
The next day, Xian Guiying was awakened by the sound of the phone beside her bed. When she opened her eyes, she saw Qin Gengxin's phone was still ringing. She reached out to take it.
In the end, her habit of going to bed early and getting up early was broken by that beast Qin Gengxin.
She frowned. Seeing that Qin Gengxin didn't seem to be in the bedroom, she directly picked up the phone.
”Boss, there seems to be something wrong with the Bai Group recently. Mrs. Bai had to give up on a direct confrontation with us and she suddenly came back to New York halfway.” Huang Jingguo's voice came over the phone.
Xian Guiying was stunned. ”Can you find out if she intentionally did this or if something really happened?”
Huang Jingguo was surprised, ”Ah, Miss Xian?”
Xian Guiying knew that she had overstepped her authority a little, but since it was related to the safety of Qin Corporation, she was still a little worried. At this time, the bedroom door was opened, and Qin Gengxin came in.
Seeing that he had returned, she directly handed him the phone. ”It's Huang Jingguo. I saw the phone ringing, so I answered.”
Qin Gengxin took the phone and glanced at her with a smile. Then, he turned around and went out to answer the call.
Xian Guiying was a little confused. Why did he look so strange when he was smiling at her? She couldn't help but touch her face and hair. She got off the bed and ran to the bathroom. Then she saw many faint red marks on her neck and body. It looked very ambiguous.
With a headache, she touched the two noticeable red marks on her neck. Then, she turned around to search for the luggage that she had brought back. She wanted to see if there were turtleneck sweaters or something that could cover the ambiguous marks on her neck.
While looking through the clothes, she cursed, ”This damned Qin Gengxin! He's really unreliable!”
When Xian Guiying and Qin Gengxin returned to the house in front of them, it was just before lunchtime. The Old Man was sitting in a wheelchair by the French window, and when he saw them entered, he smiled and waved at them. ”Guiying, you finally awake. Gengxin said that you were too tired these few days and were still sleeping, so I didn't call anyone to wake you up for breakfast.”
Xian Guiying smiled. ”It's fine. I slept for the whole morning. I'm not hungry. Grandpa, you have to go out and bask in the sun more often. It's not very useful for you to just sit at a window like this.”
”I know. Gengxin pushed me out this morning. I'm tired, so I'll sit here and rest.” The Old Man patted her hand gently. ”The children are in the children's room. They all came down to play in the morning. Ruolan should be coaxing them for an afternoon nap now.”
”I'll go see Qianqian.” Xian Guiying smiled and turned around. Qin Gengxin didn't follow her and when he saw Xian Jian was looking at something besides the toy rack, he walked towards him.
When Xian Guiying went upstairs, Jiang Ruolan happened to come out of the children's bedroom with a glass in her hand. When she turned around and saw Xian Guiying, she smiled and said, ”You're awake?”
Xian Guiying walked over and smiled. ”Have the children taken an afternoon nap?”
”They didn't sleep. The three children were playing together in high spirits. They leisurely clamored for milk, and since I couldn't drink a cup by myself, I shared some of it with them.” Jiang Ruolan then raised the milk glass in her hand and said, ”They've finished it all. Qianqian is also very willing to drink it.”
”That girl is willing to eat anything, no matter if it's food or drink. As long as there's no poison, she doesn't refuse anyone.” Xian Guiying smiled and said, ”Gengxin and I went to the attic at the back last night and left our child here with you. You probably didn't sleep well tonight, right?”
”No, it's Nanny Cheng and Little Ju who are helping me take care of them. I just woke up in the early morning and came over to play with the kids. They are all very obedient. Nanny Cheng said that they slept very well and that the children did not cause trouble at all at night. Qianqian is also very well behaved. She was tired during the day, so she was the first to fall asleep.”
