Xian Guiying had never been treated in such a manner in her life. Gritting her teeth, she glared at him. "You …"
"This is H City. Do you want me to take you back to your family and talk about this in front of your grandfather?" Qin Gengxin said coldly.
Xian Guiying immediately went silent and looked at him angrily.
Taking her back to Xian Family and talking about this in front of the Old Man?
What kind of joke was this? If the Old Man found out about this, then she wouldn't be able to leave!
"Are you threatening me?" She stared at him.
Qin Gengxin chuckled softly and lowered his head to get close to her face. "That's why we are even."
For some reason, there was a strange medicinal smell on him, like the smell of disinfectant.
Xian Guiying thought maybe it's because her nose wasn't working, or maybe because she used to take her daughter to the hospital a few days ago. "What exactly do you want to talk about?"
When Qin Gengxin mentioned the Old Man, Xian Guiying finally calmed down.
She frowned as a tinge of compromise appeared in his eyes. She had originally wanted to stay far away from him, but from the looks of it now, Qin Gengxin's purposeful flying back and didn't intend to let her off so easily.
If she could not resist it, she would have to endure the piercing pain of him standing in front of her.
It really hurts.
Her eyes locked into him. "What do you want to talk about?" She asked again.
"Our marriage." Qin Gengxin let go of her hand, not wanting to hurt her anymore. Seeing her wrist turned red, he backed away from her and sat down next to her while whispering, "Our eleven years relationship."
When he mentioned that, Xian Guiying's cold gaze gradually faded, but she remained expressionless. She silently looked at his side face.
After looking for a long time, she shifted her gaze away and looked out the window silently. She didn't want to fight anymore.
Maybe a closure would be good for her.
Shangri-La Hotel was located near Beidou Avenue in H City and it took less than ten minutes for them to arrive by taxi. When they got out of the car, Qin Gengxin initially wanted to grab her hand, but Xian Guiying nonchalantly opened the car door on the other side and got out.
Seeing that she was calm, Qin Gengxin looked at her and waited for her to stand beside him before they entered the hotel together.
Xian Guiying glanced at the big sign, then turned around to look at the taxi that had already left. Her eyes were cold.
Since she was no longer fighting or trying to escape, Qin Gengxin did not urge her. He just stood there silently with one hand in his pocket.
When Xian Guiying looked back at him, somehow, in his eyes, she seemed to see something in them.
She looked at him. "What's the difference between coming to the hotel and the street?"
"I think we should sit down and have a quiet, patient talk." He replied.
Xian Guiying took a deep breath, looked at the package she was holding, and then looked up at the sky. It was almost dark. She had initially planned to go to Greenville Residence before nightfall and brought Qin Wenqian to stay there. It looked like she won't get a chance to go there today.
Qin Gengxin remained standing upright, and even after entering the hotel door, he remained standing there. After a few seconds, he moved his legs, took his hands out of his pants pockets, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pockets, but he didn't smoke. He put the cigarette pack back and walked into the hotel.
When they were in the elevator, Xian Guiying just stood behind him silently. She was no longer the Xian Guiying, who liked to approach him as much as possible, constantly trying to find topics to talk to him about and find out how he felt.
In her world with him, there was only silence and countless frost.
She was no longer in the mood to care whether her emotions were still as strong as before. She didn't want to care about it, nor did she care about it. Divorce was also a way to let herself free.
As she followed Qin Gengxin to the door, she watched him insert the room card. Pushing the door open, he motioned for her to enter. The patience in his eyes and the slight change in his attitude made her suspicious, but she just looked at him before walking inside without a word.
Looking at her silent and obedient back that was already fearless due to not wanting to care, Qin Gengxin's emotions were mixed.
"What do you want to drink?" He asked as he closed the door.
"I'm not thirsty. What do you want to talk about? Hurry up and tell me. My daughter is still sleeping in the hotel. When she wakes up later and finds out I wasn't there, she will cry." Xian Guiying sat on the couch. She put the bag on the table and looked at Qin Gengxin calmly.
Qin Gengxin walked away with a sigh and a smile. He looked at her expression and after looking at it for a moment, he said with a strange smile, "The feeling of being misunderstood by others is indeed unpleasant."
Xian Guiying was confused.
However, he did not explain himself and only took a step back. Qin Gengxin casually sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her with his deep eyes, "Since we have gotten to this point, I guess even if you want a divorce, I should tell you some things. Otherwise, it is really unfair to you."
Xian Guiying didn't say anything but just looked at him.
"Eleven years ago, at the airport. When I first saw you holding your belongings standing there, I felt a light in front of me. At that time, you were a very different sight for my heart, not just because you are my good brother's sister, but also because many of your features are enough to impress people, including me. I am a man and every unmarried man would naturally be moved by an outstanding and beautiful woman, so I am no exception."
"But there is always someone in my heart and you know about it too. So, even though my heart is moved, I still treat you as a sister. At that time, Qin Gengxin had trusted a girl named Jiang Ruolan. He did not want to disappoint his years of searching and waiting, and he also didn't want to lose someone who had a pious heart. He wanted to protect her for the rest of his life. That's the only thing he held on to all this time in the cruel and ruthless American business world. No matter what, he must find Jiang Ruolan, the girl he wanted to marry. He must give her a stable and happy life. Every person has a belief and something they want to do. In those years, to me, this is my belief."
At this point, Qin Gengxin suddenly laughed. "Thinking about it now and thinking about everything that happened at that time, it is indeed laughable."
