Chapter 745 - Do You Want To Go For A Drink

"It's nothing. It's just a normal reaction during the first trimester. It's easy to get tired; that's why I'm like this." Xian Guiying smiled as she let Qin Gengxin embrace her. 

She leaned into his embrace with her eyes closed. "Qin Gengxin, we will never part again, right?"

​​

He chuckled and tapped her on the forehead. "You are still afraid I will run away?"

Xian Guiying smiled and took the initiative to hug his neck and kissed him. Qin Gengxin's eyes darkened. He was about to give her a deep kiss, but he was immediately pushed away.

"Alright, I'll go back to the company and ask Secretary Dai to help me arrange a few things for my new company. I know you have a lot of things to do, so I won't disturb you anymore." With that, Xian Guiying stood up.

Qin Gengxin smiled helplessly as he watched her get up. He pulled her back just as she was about to leave. He gave her a deep kiss to the point where it hurt a little, then let her go. "You're pregnant right now, so you better not try to show off."

Xian Guiying smiled and kissed him on the cheek. She took out her phone as she walked out of his office. "Secretary Dai, it's me, Guiying. I'm going over to your place now. Are you free right now?"

Qin Gengxin stayed in his office as he watched Xian Guiying make calls while she walked away. For the past few days, his flirtatious actions had been interrupted every time they met. He let out a long breath of frustration before walking back to his desk with a helpless sigh.

Ten months.

He suddenly understood how depressed Xian Zihao had been when Jiang Ruolan was pregnant. Now, he really felt empathy.

No, it was not empathy, but suffering.

"Why do you suddenly want to go back to the company?" While carrying a large stack of documents towards the Secretary Room, Secretary Dai smiled as she looked at Xian Guiying.

Xian Guiying chuckled. "Shouldn't you know my character very well? Actually, I just wanted to relax a little and think about some things that I need to understand. These past few years, I've been out doing both the business and running a small shop, and after walking around, I should come to a place that needs me the most, right?"

"You know that Xian Enterprise requires elites like you. Unfortunately, the company headquarters is full unless Wei Zhengsheng gives his place to you. Wait a moment, I'll go and see if there is any suitable position for you." Secretary Dai had a serious expression on her face.

However, Xian Guiying just smiled. If she wanted to return to Xian Enterprise, even if she were to randomly arrange a casual job, it would be easy for her to enter.

Secretary Dai came back with a sad face. "Oh, Guiying, there isn't anything suitable for you now, but the toilet cleaner's daughter-in-law recently gave birth. She has to go back to take care of the child for a month, why don't you go clean the toilet?"

"Secretary Dai!" Xian Guiying smiled and pushed her away. "Don't tease me. I already told you on the phone that I'm pregnant. You actually arranged for me to clean the toilet!"

"There's nothing I can do …" Secretary Dai smiled and walked out of the elevator with her. However, she suddenly stopped and stared blankly at the people outside the elevator.

In the blink of an eye, Xian Guiying also saw Wei Zhengsheng, who was supposed to be away on a business trip.

She immediately walked out of the elevator, followed by Secretary Dai from behind. Secretary Dai looked at Wei Zhengsheng's calm face and said, "President Wei, um.. Aren't you supposed to coming back tomorrow morning?"

Wei Zhengsheng only looked at Xian Guiying, not at her. He just heard about Xian Guiying's pregnancy.

"I have something to discuss with the board members today. I came back a day earlier after taking care of things there. Guiying, how have you been?"

Actually, the two of them had only not met for a little more than a month, but it seemed like a long time had passed. Xian Guiying still felt that she owed Wei Zhengsheng a lot.

Her persistence was exchanged for Qin Gengxins protection, while Wei Zhengsheng's persistence and protection were rewarded by her unwillingness and repeated evasions.

Thus, she had to confirm that Wei Zhengsheng was temporarily absent from the company before she went to Xian Enterprise. However, she did not expect to meet him, to the point of being so awkward."

Xian Guiying smiled, "Brother Wei."

"Erm, President Wei, I don't know that you are going to arrange a meeting with the board members right now. I didn't receive any notification, do you want me to make the arrangements now?"

"No need. The special assistant has already arranged everything. Go and busy yourself with your matters." Wei Zhengsheng said in a low voice. Then he looked at Xian Guiying and saw that the embarrassed expression on her face had faded. She was now looking at him with a calm smile.

"Do you want to go for a drink?" Xian Guiying was the first to speak after Secretary Dai left.

Wei Zhengsheng raised his eyebrow. "You're treating me?"

"Sure." She laughed.

"Alright then." Wei Zhengsheng turned around and walked towards the door. Xian Guiying followed him slowly. There were a lot of places to drink, but she chose a tea shop that was opened by Chinese people. Tea was something Xian Zihao and Wei Zhengsheng liked.

Just as they sat down, a waiter came over and asked them what tea they wanted. Before Xian Guiying could open her mouth, Wei Zhengsheng said, "Two cups of plain water, thank you."

The waiter knew them. They used to come here often. He just nodded and went to get some water.

Xian Guiying looked at Wei Zhengsheng and asked, "Aren't you going to drink some tea?"

"You're pregnant, so you can't drink tea. It's meaningless for me to drink by myself. Why don't we drink plain water together?" Wei Zhengsheng chuckled.

In the end, he had still heard it.

Xian Guiying paused for a moment, then smiled in relief. She looked at him and softly said, "Brother Wei."

"Guiying, I'm used to you calling me Zhengsheng. Even if we can't be husband and wife and are only friends, you still call me Zhengsheng. Don't call me Brother Wei." As he spoke, he frowned.
