Wei Shanyuan looked at her and sighed. "Guiying, I know how you normally live, so you don't have to deliberately show how tenacious you are. In this kind of small rural place, you're no longer the tall and mighty President Xian, also not Xian Zihao's sister, you're just a petty hawker. In those people's eyes, you don't have the same qualifications as them here, especially when you came here with a four-year-old child. I don't get it. You are used to the life before and even if you said that the life you're living now is something you long for, but during this year, you have eaten a lot of grievances and been treated wrongly, so why did you choose to live in this place? This Wuyuan is no longer Wuyuan from a few years ago."
"But I have a great time here with my daughter." Xian Guiying raised her head. "Qianqian is now four years old. A year ago, when she suddenly cried for her mother when she was at the door of death and when I ran into the ward and saw you trying to save her, I suddenly remembered what fear really was. Yes, I gave birth to her and loved her, but there were times when I had to work overtime, went abroad, and had to leave her with servants. In short, Qianqian still lacked her mother's company. At that moment, I suddenly thought it through …."
"So, I decided to take her away from H City, away from everything. I came here because I wanted to spend more time with her every day. I had more time to accompany her, go to kindergarten to pick her up, and then I could cook a lot of food she likes to eat. The current Qianqian is much more cheerful than before and no longer afraid of strangers. I feel that this is my greatest satisfaction."
Those people here always assumed that she was a mistress who had been abandoned by a man and brought up a child who cannot be seen in public. Since Qin Wenqian kindergarten was not in this city and far from these neighbors, Xian Guiying didn't care to explain.
As long as her daughter was not affected, everything else didn't matter to her.
Wei Shanyuan suddenly received a call from his colleague. Other hospital leaders would like to take pictures together, and since this group activity was joined with the staff from other hospitals, it was not good for him not to go there.
Since the rain had stopped, Xian Guiying's shop became busy again, so Wei Shanyuan took a leave first and said that the three of them would have dinner together in the evening.
Xian Guiying answered without thinking and told him to come to her place for dinner that night. She said that Qin Wenqian was recovering well and coincidentally, since Wei Shanyuan was here, he could check on her daughter's condition.
As Wei Shanyuan left and Xian Guiying walked to the door to hang the shawl, she suddenly heard a woman from the next shop shouting at her husband, "That little bitch. What's wrong with me charging five hundred yuan? She wants to sleep with the man, so why are you still looking for an opportunity with her?! What a shameless man! Who exactly is your wife? If you see her again, I'll dig out your eyeballs!"
Hearing the sour voice of the middle-aged woman, Xian Guiying held the shawl in his hand and smiled disapprovingly.
This so-called berate was nothing to her. Wei Shanyuan asked her why she wanted to stay here. Honestly, she was actually very happy. Before this, nearly thirty years of her life seemed to be in the clouds, but she could not feel the peace. But now, living a normal life in a place like this, she finally knows the joys of life.
"Boss, can you take off the hat hanging at the top? Let me try it on!"
Currently, a customer came inside the shop. Xian Guiying smiled and went to serve the customer.

"President Qin."
Just as the video conference with the British partner was over, Qin Gengxin closed the laptop and walked out of the conference room.
As soon as he came out, a man in a black shirt walked over and whispered something to him. Qin Gengxin's gaze froze.
A few minutes later, he waved at the man and walked back to his office.
The moment he put down the stack of meeting documents, he slightly looked down at the photo he asked from Darna a year ago in the corner of the table.
It was a photo of Xian Guiying and Qin Wenqian. A photo that was always placed in her bedroom. He was the only one missing from the photo.
After staring at it for a long time, he narrowed his eyes, picked up his phone, and made a call.
"Lily, I heard Wei Shanyuan went to Wuyuan. Found out where he stay and sent the address to my phone."
"Understood, President Qin."
Qin Gengxin ended the call and put down his phone. His black eyes silently looked at the picture in the corner of the table, and a trace of hope finally appeared in his eyes.
Last year, Wei Shanyuan and Wei Zhengsheng didn't make any suspicious moves, nor did they go anywhere or contact anyone. Ever since Xian Guiying had disappeared in front of the two brothers, Xian Zihao's side was silent, and Qin Gengxin knew that he deliberately hid Xian Guiying's location, not wanting him to hurt her again.
Because he understood Xian Zihao very well, Qin Gengxin did nothing nor force him. He was always watching Wei Shanyuan and Wei Zhengsheng's movements.
After Wei Zhengsheng officially took over Xian Enterprise, the workload increased, and he barely had time to go out. Although there were people secretly watching him during his business trips, they always ended up in vain.
Qin Gengxin had set his biggest target on Wei Shanyuan since the beginning, but Wei Shanyuan had never left H City for the past year.
He spent almost a year looking for Xian Guiying and no matter what he did, there were always nets blocking his path.
Among them was Xian Zihao's forces. Therefore, it had become more difficult for him to find her. She completely disappeared, out of trace, and no matter whether it was the transaction from her bank card, entry or exit entries, everything was done cleanly and meticulously.
This feeling was in contrast to the loss of Jiang Ruolan many years ago.
When Qin Gengxin lost contact with Jiang Ruolan many years ago, he felt too much unwillingness and unfairness, too much anger, and too many emotions that could not be forcefully suppressed in the depths of his heart. There's no place for him to shout about it, especially when he found out that she was someone else's wife.
The disappearance of Xian Guiying and the death of Qin Wenqian, those feelings were worse than what he felt for Jiang Ruolan. Yes, he would rather believe that his daughter was still alive than believe that she really died just like that.
When Qin Gengxin didn't get any answer from Wei Shanyuan a year ago, he knew that everyone's mouths had been tightly bought because not only the brothers from the Wei Family were stopping him, but also Xian Zihao. He could only find the answer on his own.
Across the city, no cemeteries receive Qin Wenqian's remains, nor was her name on any of the tombstones in the province. The reason why he only looked at H City and the province was that Xian Guiying and the child disappeared in that place in just a few days.
Furthermore, the Xian Family was in H City, and if Qin Wenqian was really dead, then the cemetery must also be in H City.
It was because everything had been done too flawlessly, Qin Gengxin could feel the intentions of the other party.
