Xian Guiying looked back at the piece of jade that had been placed on the table and imagined Qin Gengxin standing on the side of the car with the bracelet and kissing her.
Perhaps she could try to change the target to other men. When she thought about the other man, Wei Zhengsheng flashed in her mind. No, she couldn't use him.
Perhaps it was because they had known each other for a long time and he was also her brother's shadow. Towards this man, she really could not have any other feelings.
After that, no matter what ceremony or meeting she was attending, Xian Guiying would always dress carefully and would no longer just wear light makeup and dress in professional attire, but instead would start to impose more feminine air to herself.
She was already known for her coldness and beauty in Boston. Out of a sudden, her personality changed and she no longer rejected the male approach. She would chat happily with some of the men during the banquet and dance with them.
She would not wait for others to offer her a drink and instead would personally drink a few glasses by herself.
In the past few months, the woman beside Qin Gengxin had always been Kelsey. Many people started to find out that Xian Guiying and Qin Gengxin had nothing to do with each other, so those businessmen began to have the courage to pursue her.
It was at that ball that Qin Gengxin took the initiative to look at Xian Guiying. The first time after a few months.
He passed her and saw that she was having an enthusiastic conversation with the son of the CEO of the newly listed company.
Qin Gengxin paused and turned to look at her, while Xian Guiying only glanced at him and gave him a polite smile. At that time, her gaze did not linger on him; instead, she began to chat with the CEO's son.
Later, when she was dancing with the CEO's son, Qin Gengxin and Kelsey were also on the dance floor. Because of the high heels Kelsey was wearing, her legs sprained, and before Qin Gengxin could help her, she bumped into Xian Guiying.
Xian Guiying didn't have the chance to avoid it and the CEO's son took advantage of the situation, pulling her into his arms.
There was clearly a large space behind her, but the collision caused by Kelsey made Xian Guiying's gaze focused directly on her.
Afterwards, Qin Gengxin helped Kelsey find a seat and sat down. Xian Guiying continued to dance with the CEO's son. The man can be considered a good man.
He didn't take the opportunity to eat her tofu, nor did he do anything annoying.
She could see that he was interested in her.
Of course, it was just an interest.
Xian Guiying then excused herself and asked him to wait while she went to the washroom. When she came out of the washroom, before she could return to the dance floor, she saw Qin Gengxin standing on the balcony, smoking a cigarette.
She pretended not to see him and walked around him. Suddenly, she heard him calling her name.
"Guiying, come here." His voice was not very loud when he spoke, but the voice entered her ears very clearly.
Xian Guiying halted her steps and turned around to look at him. She saw that his expression was calm, but he seemed to have something to say. After hesitating for a moment, she decided to go over and see what he actually wanted to talk about.
However, just as she walked over, Qin Gengxin looked at the exquisite makeup on her face and the laziness between her eyebrows and couldn't help but frown. He then threw the cigarette that he hadn't finished onto the ground and pressed it with his foot before saying, "Are you angry at me?"
Xian Guiying raised her eyebrow and chuckled slightly, "What does President Qin mean by this? I think I'm in good shape and have no intention of getting angry at anyone."
Qin Gengxin, however, didn't laugh at her and only frowned. "Forget it, let's not talk about this. Your situation is really good now. I'm also very happy for you. I hope you can find a suitable man for you as soon as possible. But…"
He looked in the direction behind her. "This guy isn't right for you."
Xian Guiying just looked at him calmly, then turned around and saw the CEO's son sitting on the chair, chatting with some other successful people.
She smiled. "Whether it's right or not, I'm afraid it's not up to you, President Qin. You have your own life, and I have my own life. President Qin, you must also pay attention to your own attitude. Otherwise, I will misunderstand."
After saying that, she pursed her lips in a mocking manner. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a woman who limped over them.
"However, it seems that I have indeed misunderstood." Then, she lowered her eyes. Her smile still lingering on her lips.
That's right, could it be that Qin Gengxin was jealous of her intimacy with other men and wanted her to break off all ties with them?
If he were such a contradictory person, he probably wouldn't have been able to control it long ago. There was no need for him to wait until now.
Even now, Xian Guiying was still indulging in her own love.
She sighed faintly before adjusting her expression and emotion to an angle he couldn't see and turned to leave as Kelsey approached.
"I want to remind you that his father was Xian Zihao's sworn enemy. While both of your companies seem calm now, his father has suffered huge losses because of your brother. This guy will figure out a way to approach you."
Qin Gengxin didn't stop her, but he warned her in a calm voice, as if he was still carrying the same care and concern he had for her at the time.
Xian Guiying halted her steps but only stopped for a moment before she continued walking in the man's direction.
She knew that Kelsey was already walking to Qin Gengxin's side. So she didn't look back and just quietly looked at the CEO's son.
At the beginning, she had suspected his intention to approach her, but she gradually gave up on the idea because of his manners.
Now, she's not only had to be worried but also had to be on guard.
"Miss Xian, do you want to go for a ride after the banquet?" When she walked back, the man was still smiling with a serious face, but his eyes had a strong sense of purpose.
He wanted to capture her tonight.
Xian Guiying tilted her head and smiled. "Alright then, why not drive in my car?"
Seeing that she was straightforward, he nodded happily. "Sure, then it's a deal."
After the banquet, Xian Guiying deliberately avoided Qin Gengxin and directly went for a ride with the CEO's son to a nearby river bridge.
An open sports car drove along the river bridge. A cold wind was blowing in her ears, but at the same time, she could also hear the man's confession of love.
