Qin Wenqian clearly recognized Xian Zihao, she touched his face before smiling widely. "Uncle."
Originally, silence and politeness were the child's reactions to a stranger. Still, there was a smile on her face when talking to someone she knew. A personality like this … That was Qin Gengxin's bad temper since he was young.
Seeing the doubt in Jiang Ruolan's eyes, Xian Guiying said, "Previously, when my brother received treatment in America, my family wanted to arrange for someone to go and take care of him. Since I am there, I stopped mom and dad from hiring someone. That's how Wenqian knew him."
Qin Wenqian sometimes looked at Xian Guiying, who was talking to Jiang Ruolan. Upon realizing that she did not mention Qin Gengxin at all, Jiang Ruolan was a little confused, and she had no idea what was going on between both of them. She didn't know if she should ask, so she could only look at her from time to time with a confused expression.
Xian Guiying then pointed at Qin Wenqian and said, "Wenqian is returning home for the first time since her birth, so she may not be able to adapt to the situation here. She had a stomach ache last night, but today she wants to come out and play. As soon as we arrived here, she lost her spirit, so I was planning to take her back to the hotel first."
"She can't adapt to the weather and the food here. Why don't you come back to Greenville Residence with us for a few days? I didn't have to work on the weekend and Zihao is also at home. Chiahao and An Na can play with Wenqian." Jiang Ruolan quickly offered Xiang Guiying to stay with her with a smile.
"It's okay, Wenqian is not a pampered child. She just can't adapt. If she still can't adapt to the situation here, I'll take her back to America and wait until she grows up before returning."
Xian Guiying's rejection always gave Jiang Ruolan the feeling that there was something on her mind.
In fact, Xian Guiying was much more spirited than before. After giving birth, she still looked like an elegant young girl, but she was still a bit cold. This made strangers not dare to approach her, and it was also because of her beauty.
But even so, she gave off an even colder feeling and became even more silent, as if other than her children and the company, everything else had nothing to do with her. Much less mentioned, much less cared about.
Jiang Ruolan could clearly feel that after the marriage, Xian Guiying had become a different person, while Qin Gengxin had become increasingly famous in the business world over the past two years, expanding his business in China.
He even monopolized a new way of business, and in the last two years, she could always see him on the news about his company's achievement, but never once she saw the news about him getting married and having children.
There were too many questions in her mind, but she didn't dare to ask. Jiang Ruolan could only look at Xian Guiying's face, who was still as confident as before but still less passionate.
"Mommy." Qin Wenqian suddenly called out in a soft voice. Her pretty and cute face was scrunched up and she didn't look comfortable.
Jiang Ruolan immediately looked down. "What's wrong with her? Did she feel uncomfortable with me hugging her?"
Xian Guiying sighed lightly, "She still has diarrhea. I'll take her to the toilet. Brother, sister-in-law, you don't have to worry about me. Go back, I'll see Chiahao and An Na when I have time. After all, they are my nephew. I've been busy these past years and haven't seen them."
After saying that, Xian Guiying took Qin Wenqian and walked away.
"Guiying." Jiang Ruolan wanted to stop her, but Xian Guiying just walked away without looking back. Only Qin Wenqian, who was in her arms, turned her small head to look in their direction. She raised her little hand and waved it awkwardly at them, saying "Bai Bai".
Qin Wenqian was only three years old, yet she was already so sensible. What kind of environment did she grow up to be so silent and so sensible? She didn't cry or make a ruckus in front of her mother's family and friends. Even against strangers, she was just quietly on guard and didn't show a single trace of fear on her face.
Qin Gengxin, how could your daughter be so obedient and quiet? How much fatherly love did you give her? How can this be the personality of a child who enjoys parental love? Even Xian Chiahao and Xian An Na were as naive as ever after not seeing their father for two years.
Jiang Ruolan suddenly felt a warm feeling on her shoulder. Xian Zihao put his arm around her and calmly said, "Let's go."
Jiang Ruolan turned her head abruptly and looked at him with a little surprise. His gaze was calm, as if he knew Xian Guiying's situation like the back of his hand, but he did not intend to interfere.
Jiang Ruolan furrowed her brows and asked, "What exactly happened between Guiying and Qin Gengxin? Wenqian went home with her mother and yet he doesn't even care about it and never knows his daughter is sick?"
Seeing the anger on Jiang Ruolan's face, Xian Zihao patted her shoulder as if he was calming her down and said in a deep voice, "Whatever happens will pay off. From his attitude against Guiying during the wedding ceremony, this marriage was a mistake from the beginning. I punched him on the wedding day, but this was also indeed Guiying's own doing. Once they get married, even though I'm her brother, I can't interfere with their family's matter forever."
Yes, even though Xian Zihao's was Xian Guiying's brother, she will remain as a member of the Qin Family after she married into the family. No matter how much he loved his sister, if he interfered in every aspect, it would definitely make Xian Guiying's life difficult.
Jiang Ruolan sighed and asked softly, "What stage have they both reached? With Guiying's personality and with Qin Gengxin's bad attitude, even if she has to survive for the sake of her daughter, she certainly won't be able to survive for so long. She's not a weak woman. She has her own world and her own life. If Qin Gengxin can't treat her well, why don't he divorce her? It's been two years, isn't that too inconceivable?"
Xian Zihao opened the car door, gesturing for her to get in the car first. He then indicated for her to look at the two sleeping children in the back seat, reminding her that they had to go home to bathe the children. The pool water will make their bodies itching.
Jiang Ruolan hurriedly got into the car.
On the way back to Greenville Residence, while driving, Xian Zihao said indifferently, "After their marriage, Qin Gengxin transferred the house he lived in into Guiying's name and let her live there. However, after he moved out, he didn't take a step into the house and didn't even come to see her and his daughter."
Jiang Ruolan was not surprised by this. This was indeed something Qin Gengxin would have done if he was mad, but she didn't think he would reach this far.
"They haven't seen each other at all in these two years?" Jiang Ruolan turned her head.
Xian Zihao's slender fingers gripped the steering wheel tightly while staring straight ahead. Apparently he didn't want to talk about this, and it was also clear that this situation was far more serious than what he had said.
