"Bai Nuying, the people from the Secretary's Room were looking for you. What are you doing here?" A nearby elevator door opened and a staff member walked out to see what had happened. Once she realized the situation, she was stunned.
Bai Nuying didn't leave. She kept staring at Xian Guiying, as if wanting to read something from her expression.
For example, she wanted to know what was the relationship between Xian Guiying and Qin Gengxin.
"Get back to work." Qin Gengxin's gaze still did not shift away from Xian Guiying as he spoke again. This time, he seemed to want to drive her away.
Bai Nuying looked at him with a wronged expression. "But.."
"Miss Bai." Suddenly, Xian Guiying calmly opened her mouth, looked away from Qin Gengxin, looking at Bai Nuying, who hadn't left the scene. "You like him, don't you?"
When she was asked this question, Bai Nuying immediately replied instinctively, "Yes, this is something that everyone knows."
Qin Gengxin's frown deepened in an instant. He looked at Xian Guiying and said in a low voice, "If there's anything you need to talk about, we can talk about it in private!"
"How many years have you liked him?" However, Xian Guiying ignored him and kept looking at Bai Nuying with a smile, as if she was looking at herself many years ago.
"I have loved Brother Gengxin since I was eighteen, but he always ignored me. I used to think that it was because I was still young, and now that I graduated, I came to Boston for him. Sis Guiying, I know that you are very familiar with Brother Gengxin, so can you help me persuade him and make him accept me?"
Bai Nuying said it while blinking innocently like a child. Since Xian Guiying asked her that question, she suddenly felt that Xian Guiying should have no feelings for Qin Gengxin.
Xian Guiying's eyes lit up in delight. "So, it's been six years."
Bai Nuiying nodded and inadvertently leaned on Qin Gengxin, as if wanting to express how much she liked sticking to him and how much she cared about him.
Xian Guiying smiled and sighed. She looked into Qin Gengxin's black eyes and said, "Qin Gengxin, let's get divorced."
Ignoring the widened eyes of Bai Nuying, Xian Guiying just looked at him silently. Her eyes were terrifyingly calm, like a Siren hiding all the blood and gale behind her smile.
Qin Gengxin didn't say anything. In the blink of an eye, unpredictable emotions passed through his eyes. He just looked at her and didn't let go of her. After so long, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Did you utter those words just to piss me off?"
"Otherwise?" Xian Guiying laughed even more. When she smiled, her eyes would bend, causing her eyes, which were gradually turning red, to be covered. She was like a big tree that was used to standing in the wind and rain and did not need to rely on anyone to persevere, so she said, "This should be the best choice for you and me. Just like when I shouldn't have succumbed to the moment of greed. We were wrong from the very beginning. I can't just make a mistake like this for the rest of my life."
She no longer tried to pull her hand away, but Qin Gengxin still held her wrist so tightly.
"The people from the Secretary Room are looking for you, quickly leave!" The staff member who just came up knew that she couldn't keep watching. Qin Gengxin's private affair wasn't something that anyone could listen to. She quickly walked over to Bai Nuying and grabbed her arm. "Don't just stand here, leave."
Bai Nuiying remained in her position and stared at Xian Guiying's face. She looked at her like she wanted to see through her. More like she was staring at Xian Guiying like she was a bad guy who had taken her favorite object first.
"You don't have to go! The person who has to go is me!" Xian Guiying glanced at her before looking back at her arm in Qin Gengxin's hand.
This was a completely unpleasant occasion. Indeed, she should not have appeared here.
She should have disappeared from Qin Gengxin's life!
Qin Gengxin suddenly pushed Xian Guiying into the elevator, causing her to stagger for a moment. Then, he walked into the elevator with a big step, giving a cold look to the person standing outside.
Qin Gengxin tightly gripped Xian Guiying's wrist with one hand while pressing the elevator button with the other hand.
"Boss!"
"Brother Gengxin!"
Huang Jingguo and Bai Nuying were chasing after them, but the elevator door was tightly shut.
The moment the elevator door closed, Xian Guiying twisted her wrist forcefully. "What are you doing? Let go!"
Qin Gengxin turned around and looked at her with a cold gaze. "Do you think that marriage and divorce are just like child play? You think that if you want to have children, you can have children. If you want to get married, you can get married. If you want to get a divorce, you can also get a divorce?"
Xian Guiying shook off his hand, but because she had used too much strength, she immediately leaned backward and leaned against the corner of the elevator.
She rubbed her wrists, lowered her arms, and strengthened her body. Xian Guiying raised her head and stared into his dark eyes expressionless, "In these last two years, haven't you done everything just for me to give up? For me to disappear from your life? Waiting until I am completely devastated by your endless coldness until the day I beg for the divorce. This is what you want!"
Qin Gengxin's cold expression froze for a moment.
He had indeed planned to do so.
Xian Guiying looked at him directly and not in the least avoided his gaze, "I always thought there was something that was forcing you to behave like that, but it seemed that I overestimated myself. I thought that in those eleven years we knew each other, even if you do not have a love for me, you will at least have lots of tender memories between us."
"Qin Gengxin, I can tell to myself very straightforwardly that I've lost. Since I've lost, I don't blame anyone, I'll let you go. Of course, I don't want anything from you or your Qin Family. I just want Qianqian. She's my daughter."
Her eyes were firm, with an unshakeable glimmer of the final decision she had made.
Qin Gengxin just looked at her. The elevator stopped on the top floor of the company. He didn't say anything but grabbed her hand once again and pulled her out of the elevator.
This time, Xian Guiying did not refuse, instead, she allowed him to drag her out of the elevator. The rooftop of the Qin Building was a great place to enjoy the cool air, and not far away, there was a private dining room and tea room. There were also some chairs placed around the place.
However, her mind was not focused on the decoration here. She let him take her to the private dining room. No one was there now, only tables and chairs made of bamboo. He let go of her hand and said, "Sit down first."
She stood still.
Sensing her resistance, Qin Gengxin placed both hands on his waist and turned his head to look at her. "Your ankle is just healing. Aren't you tired after standing for so long? Sit down!"
