Wei Zhengsheng almost laughed out loud. "You really are guarding against me, but do you really think you can defend yourself? President Qin, who has always been the dominant person in the business world, and the person in charge of Qin Corporation will one day not know what to do next? Are you sure you're all right?"
Qin Gengxin stared at him for a moment without speaking. After a moment of silence, he said, "Xian Guiying is no ordinary woman and difficult to deal with. Let's not talk about her, let's talk about how you are still here, eating and drinking inside her house. Are you trying to serve her secretly?"
Wei Zhengsheng raised an eyebrow and laughed. "This is to confuse the enemy from the front and then suddenly attack from the side. Hehe, what are you going to do? Looks like I have to hurry up and seize the initiative."
Qin Gengxin sneered. "Tsk, seeing that you grew up in the United States and seeing how unruly you are with someone's wife, those Chinese idioms about bastard men really suit you."
After saying that, Qin Gengxin stopped leaning against the door and stood up straight. He stared at Wei Zhengsheng under the dim light of the street lamp. "Wei Zhengsheng, we've known each other for years, and because of Xian Zihao's relationship with you, we can be considered old friends. That's your business if you like Guiying."
With Qin Gengxin's character, it's rare that he was not so angry and was in a hurry. Instead, he said this in an evasive way so that he can understand the situation well.
It seemed that Xian Guiying had really made her choice now, without leaving him a place to start. That's why he acted in a circular way.
Wei Zhengsheng grinned. "How about you give me an example. What is your so-called discretion plan?"
Xian Enterprise and Qin Corporation had canceled their collaboration this year, making it big news in Boston. During this one year, the incompatible nature of the fire and water of the two companies had allowed the people outside to see what was going on, and now, in the darkness, the fierce competition had begun between the two company's owners.
Qin Gengxin didn't want to be long-winded. He just gave him a bland look. "Acting stupid is not your style. The people living inside the house are my wife and daughter. Wei Zhengsheng, know your own limit."
Qin Gengxin threw away the cigarette he had not smoked before. He then raised his hand that was in his pants pocket. He was holding an electronic car key and was about to open the car door.
"Zhengsheng."
Xian Guiying's voice was heard behind him. Qin Gengxin's hand holding the electronic car key paused. He looked over his shoulder and saw that Xian Guiying was calmly looking at them in front of the old and dark unit door.
Qin Gengxin didn't move nor did his expression change. He just looked at her, the expression on her face as she walked towards them.
"The food is getting cold, let's go upstairs." Xian Guiying acted as if she did not see Qin Gengxin. She just looked at Wei Zhengsheng and stood next to him.
Wei Zhengsheng smiled softly and turned to look at her. "En."
With that, he spun around and walked back.
Xian Guiying also turned around and was about to leave.
Qin Gengxin sighed and put the hand that was about to open the car door down. He raised his voice and said, "I haven't eaten dinner yet."
Xian Guiying acted as if she hadn't heard him and walked straight to the door.
Qin Gengxin was so angry that the veins in his forehead throbbed. He asked again, "Is Qianqian asleep?"
However, by the time he finished speaking, the two figures had disappeared into the darkness of the building without looking back.
Qin Gengxin was so angry that his eyelids twitched.
Walking down the corridor, Wei Zhengsheng walked next to Xian Guiying and gave her a flashlight.
Xian Guiying looked at him and instead of taking the flashlight, she wrapped her hand around his, then smiled lightly before saying, "The food is getting cold."
Seeing the indifferent look in Wei Zhengsheng's eyes, her grip on his arm tightened. "You know, I'm not that kind of woman. I wouldn't use your kindness just to take revenge on him. If I did it because of him, I would have done it outside the building."
Wei Zhengsheng chuckled, "I'm not doubting your motives." After saying that, he took her hand and held it tightly, slowly leading her to the first stairs. As they walked, he asked softly, "When did you go downstairs?"
"After you came down, I sensed something was wrong, so I followed you to see it."
"Oh? How much did you hear?"
"Seventy to eighty percent." Xian Guiying's tone was bland and there was no emotion in them. In the darkness of the corridor, it's hard to see her expression.
Fearing that Qin Wenqian would be scared if she didn't see her mother when she woke up, Wei Shanyuan immediately went to her room to take care of the child first. When he heard the sound of the door opening, he got up and walked out.
"Yo!"
Seeing that the two people who had just come out were holding hands, Wei Shanyuan's voice became sour. "What did you guys do downstairs? Why when you two came back, the way the both of you looked at each other changed? What did I miss?"
Xian Guiying was initially quite open and felt that she should do whatever she wanted because she already knew it. She had no intention of being shy about it, but in the end, her face still turned pink because of Wei Shanyuan's teasing.
It had been years since she had this nostalgic blushing. It was so nostalgic.
"Is this how you talk to your cousin?" Wei Zhengsheng glanced at Wei Shanyuan nonchalantly. "Let's eat."
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, this speed is faster than I thought ... I really didn't expect it would be this fast." Wei Shanyuan whistled, went to get the red wine.
Hearing his words, Wei Zhengsheng stopped. Xian Guiying also bit her lip. They both said nothing and she immediately took her hand away from him and ran to get glasses with a hot face.
Just as the three of them sat at the dining table, they heard the door of the house opposite of them slammed heavily.
"Who was it?! Why'd he closed the door so loudly? Aren't they afraid of scaring a sleeping child!" Wei Shanyuan frowned as he poured a glass of wine to himself.
"The owner of the house went abroad for half a year ago and it was said that the house was put on rent. I don't know if the house was rented out or not, but no one has been inside the house for the past six months." Xian Guiying said.
"Recently rented?" Wei Zhengsheng looked at her. His voice was calm, not a single ripple could be heard.
"Probably. Usually, I do not hear much. Today is the first time I hear the door close. It sounds like the neighbor has a quite temper."
Wei Zhengsheng, who was about to raise a glass of wine to his mouth, abruptly stopped. He raised his head and looked at Wei Shanyuan, who also stopped.
Seeing them both acting weird, Xian Guiying at first didn't think anything. However, after seeing their expressions, she could not help but feel worried. "What's wrong?"
"Could it be ..." Wei Shanyuan put down his glass while looking at Wei Zhengsheng, who also put down his wine glass, before looking at Xian Guiying.
"Maybe." Wei Zhengsheng nodded lightly but didn't say much.
