Xian Guiying stared at him. "What's wrong?"
"Guiying, when you stand by the French window in that sunlight, your back looks so pretty." Qin Gengxin suddenly said.
The corner of Xian Guiying's mouth twitched. "You better not use your sweet words on me. I am no longer a twenty-year-old girl who is easily deceived by sweet words, so I will not fall for your trick."
"You are mine, to begin with. Why couldn't I sweet-talk with you? I'm telling the truth." Qin Gengxin leaned back on the couch, looking at her with an intoxicating smile. "The famous Chinese business figure in Boston. You are indeed a Boston Goddess. But too bad to others because you are my goddess."
Xian Guiying rolled her eyes. "Stop flattering me. I'm going to cook something. I haven't eaten anything since this morning."
As she spoke, she went to the kitchen to find food when Qin Gengxin suddenly pulled her forcibly to him, causing her to lose her foothold.
Qin Gengxin pressed her down to his laps and kissed her cheek. "I'm hungry too ~"
Although Xian Guiying didn't know much about things between men and women and would be a little nervous in that department, but she was not so innocent that she couldn't even listen to Qin Gengxin's naughty words.
She pushed him away, "Stop messing around, neither of us ate anything. I'll make some food. We bought a lot of ingredients in the hypermarket, and if we don't use it, it will spoil."
"How could it spoil if you put them in the fridge for a day or two? Don't find an excuse to fight. Don't think that I didn't know that you're a shy woman ~" Qin Gengxin smiled as he once again kissed her cheek. "My little goddess is a shy woman ~"
"You're the shy one!" Xian Guiying's face instantly turned a little hot. Perhaps after years of her love being rejected by the man she loved, she's not used to his shamelessness and wanted to fight free from his embrace.
However, Qin Gengxin held her tightly and moved his lips from her cheek to her lips. His tongue fiercely followed after hers.
His intense kiss shattered her calmness, and Xian Guiying realized that for so many years, she had been missing him in every moment, even when her heart was bleeding.
'So this is how life is meant to be? If you really fall in love, you really won't be able to extricate yourself?'
She thought she could get it out, but in the end, it was just a lie.
She actually missed him so much, missed this man that she once hated to the bones.
Qin Gengxin pushed her directly into the couch, burying his head deep into her chest.
"Guiying, I know you're resisting and rejecting me because you're afraid of getting hurt again. I won't hurt you again. Can you trust me?" His hoarse voice was heard in her ear.
Xian Guiying closed her eyes and put her arms around his shoulder. "I trust you," she said.

The sunlight outside gradually disappeared and dark clouds began to fill the sky. Soon it will rain, but inside the house, it was as warm as spring.
She wanted to suppress the sensation on her body by grabbing the edge of the couch, but Qin Gengxin suddenly pulled her hand down and made her wrap her legs around his waist, feeling his force against her. Just like that, they started to get entangled on the couch.
Xian Guiying couldn't help but cry out. Qin Gengxin lowered his head to kiss her. Their kisses were mixed with their breathing.
Qin Gengxin, whom Xian Guiying didn't know how long had been celibate, seemed to have endless energy and forced her to rush into the clouds again and again. This combination of pain and pleasure caused her to be so tired that she could not move at all.
It was unknown when they had returned to the bedroom and returned to the bed. Xian Guiying was lying on the bed with Qin Gengxin hugging her from behind while their lower body remained entangled.
"I've already restrained myself enough …" Seeing she was so tired, Qin Gengxin's heart ached as he kissed the back of her neck.
"Just let me sleep for a while. I'm so tired."
"Go to sleep. I will be here when you wake up."
Xian Guiying was really hungry, tired, and sleepy. Finally, she fell asleep. She slept for a long time.
When she opened her eyes, the sky had turned dark, and the clock showed 5:10 p.m.
Her whole body was in pain. Just as she was about to get up, she smelled a faint fragrance from outside the bedroom. She put on a nightgown she had bought a few days ago and walked out of the bedroom.
"You're awake?" Qin Gengxin placed a bowl of soup on the table.
He was actually cooking.
Xian Guiying had actually woken up from hunger. Seeing that there were already two plates of dishes and a bowl of soup on the table, she walked over and asked, "You made this?"
Qin Gengxin glanced at her with a smile. "Aren't you hungry? Go ahead and eat."
Xian Guiying stared at his smiling expression and felt that it was unbelievable.
Such an unruly man who seemed unreliable actually cooked for her? Was this really Qin Gengxin?
Seeing that he had put down the tableware and that she was hungry, she walked over and sat down at the table without thinking too much. She raised her head and looked at the man in front of her. "How long have you been cooking these dishes? It's all my favorite food."
All these years living apart, he actually remembered her favorite food?
"Hurry up and eat, don't talk so much." Qin Gengxin had lost some weight from the fever these days. He sat down opposite of her and handed her the cutlery.
Xian Guiying ate while looking at him. "If only you had been so reliable all this time."
"When was I so unreliable?" Qin Gengxin raised his eyebrow before saying proudly, "Men are always different whenever they are at home."
Xian Guiying just smiled and ignored his complacent look.
Seeing her eat, Qin Gengxin didn't eat. Instead, he kept looking at her before suddenly saying, "Guiying, let's find time to get married again."
Xian Guiying almost choked. She raised her head and saw the seriousness in his eyes, "You're serious. I.."
Seeing that she seemed to be hesitating, Qin Gengxin continued, "In these few years after we got married, I never accompanied you back to the Xian Family, and I also never formally took you back to the Qin Family. Since Qin Corporation still needs time to recover, I will use this time to accompany you back to the country."
Xian Guiying put down her chopstick and pondered for a moment. "Does your parents know about our divorce?"
"Probably not. I didn't tell them."
"Then about Qin–"
"They already know about the situation in Qin Corporation. My dad planned to come here, but I refused. I said that since the company was handed over to me, I'll handle it myself."
Xian Guiying thought Qin Gengxin's grandmother and mother already knew about their divorce, so they must be extremely happy. But she didn't expect Qin Gengxin would not tell them.
Currently, Xian Zihao was the only one who knew about their divorce. As for the rest of the Xian Family, she wasn't sure, but regardless of whether Xian Zihao had told them or not, she knew he was doing it for her own good.
Xian Guiying thought for a moment but didn't say anything more. She continued to eat. "Let's talk about visiting Xian Family later."
