My Little Sweet Wife

Chapter 703 - If He Wants You To Be Happy, Then He Will Help You

Xian Guiying whispered something into Qin Wenqian's ear. It was only then that the child raised her head to look into Qin Gengxin's wistful eyes. She pouted her mouth hesitantly. Xian Guiying smiled. "Go, let daddy hug you for a while."

Qin Gengxin reached out his hand to accept her. Holding his daughter in his arms, it was as if he had received a lost treasure. Indeed, Qin Wenqian was their most valuable treasure, more valuable than any other treasure.

He hugged his daughter with a smile and stuck his face close to hers. "My good daughter."

Qin Wenqian, who was in his arms, looked at his face with a conflicted expression. There was a little desire in her eyes but also a little fear.

Xian Guiying looked at the father-daughter pair and pursed her lips. Qin Gengxin was currently very patient with his daughter. Not only did he miss her, but the guilt in his heart was enough for him to protect Qin Wenqian for the rest of his life.

Xian Guiying smiled before walking towards the balcony. Seeing Xian Zihao standing silently by the balcony, she asked, "Brother?"

"En." He didn't look back. He just stood there, looking in a certain direction.

Xian Guiying walked over and stood next to him. She saw that he was looking in Xian Enterprise's direction. Although the Xian Enterprise Building was very tall, there were countless taller buildings, so it was blocked by many of them.

"What's wrong?" She asked softly while looking at him.

"Guiying, how long have you been in the United States?" Xian Zihao looked at her.

Xian Guiying was startled. She hesitated for a moment and said, "It has been more than ten years. Thirteen years? Thirteen years, maybe more? I can already vaguely remember it."

"The Old Man is sick." Xian Zihao said suddenly.

Xian Guiying's expression froze. "What?"

"The Old Man had been suffering from cerebral thrombosis for years, and because he often walked out, his body was still considered healthy. A few months ago, he had diabetes. The day before, mom called and said that the Old Man had suddenly had a stroke and half his body could not move. He is now in the hospital." Xian Zihao looked at his sister with indifference.

"Guiying, you are still young and there are so many grievances in your heart that you will remember for the rest of your life, but these grievances and grudges of yours, he would take them to the grave. He is already eighty-eight years old, and his birthday has not yet passed."

Her grip on the balcony railing was gradually tightening. She heaved a long sigh. "He's already this old."

"Do you still want to hate him after he's buried?"

"Brother, you clearly know that I don't think that way. It's just...In order to protect Cui Luixian, he even wronged his own granddaughter to such an extent. He clearly knows that I didn't do many wrong things in my childhood, but as long as Cui Luixian said that I did it, he will believe her! I don't care who the real granddaughter was, but at least he has to be reasonable. Including the matter between you and sister-in-law!"

"Cui Luixian almost ruined your family and she even pushed sister-in-law from the stairs, which was how he finally made up his mind to kick her out! But even so, he still wanted to arrange a house for her to live in! I don't understand him. I'll never understand!"

"There will be a day when you'll understand the reason."

Hearing Xian Zihao's words, Xian Guiying couldn't help but look at him. "Do you know the reason?"

"I only know a bit. I'm not completely sure."

Xian Guiying understood her brother's personality. If that were something he couldn't be entirely sure of, he certainly wouldn't have said it out loud, so she could just nod her head. "Actually, all you want is for me to go home and take advantage of my good relationship with Qin Gengxin to see grandpa. Let him see that I'm actually very happy now."

Seeing Xian Zihao nod, Xian Guiying immediately smiled, "Since he was so worried about it, why didn't he speak to me or visit me? I was with you and sister-in-law in the hospital at that time. After he chased Cui Luixian away, he didn't speak to us. If he really felt guilty about me, he could say, "Guiying, grandfather was so biased in the past, I won't argue with you anymore." But in the end, what did he do? When Qianqian was almost dying, who was the culprit? In that park, my daughter was almost killed by the man that Cui Luixian brought along! Who was the one who raised such a jackal?! Therefore, you should understand now why I haven't returned to the Xian Family even once!"

Xian Zihao just looked at her, not saying a word.

After meeting his gaze, Xian Guiying closed her eyes and turned around. Looking up at the sky, she said, "Alright, I promise. I'll find time to go back and visit him."

Xian Zihao's gaze was gentle. "Only Qin Gengxin can suppress your temper."

Xian Guiying looked at him speechlessly.

Xian Zihao smirked as he knocked on her head. "You've been stubborn since you were young."

"Brother, how old am I now? Do you still even need to knock my head off? I know what I have to do. Don't worry, even though I'm unfilial, I also don't want him to die in a grievance. As for the matter between Qin Gengxin and me, I just follow my heart, but I don't know what will happen in the future. After all, the Qin and Xian Families seem to have a history behind them."

"This is just a knot in the Old Man's heart, but I'm guessing it's better if you go back and talk to the Old Man himself. If he wants you to be happy and doesn't want your marriage to be ruined, then he will help you."

"How can he help me?"

Xian Zihao looked at her and sighed softly, "I know why the Old Man refused to find another wife in the decades after grandmother's death. That's because there's always another woman in his heart, and that woman is still alive."

Xian Zihao's cell phone rang and he picked it up. It sounded like it was from the airport. He had booked a flight home in the afternoon.

It seemed like he was missing his wife and his two children at home so much. After settling the matters with her, he booked a plane ticket for the day.

When he hung up the phone, he noticed Xian Guiying's gaze was still on him. It looked like she wanted to hear what he had to say.

Xian Zihao glanced at her and said, "If you want to untie the knot in your heart, then you have to untie the ties between the Qin and Xian Families. Only you can ask the Old Man yourself. I'll call a taxi to the airport later. I'll wait for you at the Xian Residence."

? ? ? ?

In the evening, after seeing Xian Zihao off, Xian Guiying thought it would be a waste of time to cook dinner herself, so she asked Qin Wenqian's permission to order takeout. In the end, Qin Gengxin brought the two of them to eat ramen on a business street opposite her apartment.

The first meal of the family of three was actually ramen noodles.

Looking at the mother-daughter pair eating noodles happily, Qin Gengxin smiled helplessly. "Are you sure you only want to eat this tonight?

Xian Guiying glanced at him and then looked at Qin Wenqian, who was currently eating noodles. Qin Wenqian also raised her small head to look at her mother, and they both started laughing.

"Mommy, can I have a cake later?" Qin Wenqian asked with a small laugh.

"Are you sure you can eat cake after such a big bowl of noodles?"

"Yes!" Qin Wenqian had a face full of certainty.

Seeing that they were both really happy, Qin Gengxin then smiled and said, "You can eat the cake whenever you want, but don't eat it too much."

Qin Wenqian turned to look at him. At first, she didn't want to talk to him, but she still insisted on whispering, "Mommy said I could eat it."

Qin Gengxin immediately smiled and wiped the soup off the child's mouth with a napkin, "Sure, you can buy it if you want to. Daddy can buy as many as you want, so there's no need to be courteous to daddy, hm?"

Qin Wenqian just looked at him before turning to Xian Guiying. "Mommy, didn't you say he went bankrupt?"

Xian Guiying, who was eating the noodles, instantly coughed loudly. Her eyes turned red and she started to cough.

Qin Gengxin immediately said with a black face, "Little thing, what bankruptcy? Do you even know what bankruptcy means?"
