My Little Sweet Wife - Chapter 625
When Qin Wenqian returned to her bedroom with her cell phone, Wei Zhengsheng was silent for a moment. No one knew what he was thinking, but then his gaze shifted to Xian Guiying, who was standing next to the tea table.
“Guiying, I’m coming this time …”
“Big Brother Wei, call Shanyuan tonight. You, brothers, haven’t seen each other in a year, right? My cooking skills are improving now. How about I treat you, two brothers, for dinner?” Xian Guiying smiled and took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet.
“This is a Lafite Wine that is over 20 years old and was bought a year ago at a liquor store. I don’t know if the taste is pure, but it’s perfect for you two brothers to taste it together with me.”
“Guiying.” Wei Zhengsheng sighed.
“Oh, wait a minute. I forgot, there’s still a bottle of another wine I bought last month.” Xian Guiying hurriedly got the wine.
Wei Zhengsheng frowned. As she walked past the couch, he immediately grabbed her wrist. “Alright, enough. Stop it.”
Xian Guiying stopped, neither speaking nor looking at him. After a while, she slowly raised her head and looked out the window, her gaze somewhat blank.
“I know you not only avoided Qin Gengxin, but you also avoided me. I haven’t come here to see you for a year because I was hoping you could find that rare serenity. Now that you’ve been calm, what are you going to do? With your personality, even if you love your life here, it is impossible for you to live here for a lifetime. Even if you do not care about yourself, you should consider the environment your child will enter in the future. No matter how beautiful Wuyuan is, their level of education is just so-so. You’ve experienced the outside world, and you plan on letting your daughter grow up here like a frog under a rock?”
“I’ll think about it when Qianqian reaches school age.” Xian Guiying said nonchalantly.
“No matter what, you have to think about it and leave this place.” Wei Zhensheng looked at her seriously. “You can choose not to go back to Boston or you can choose not to go back to H City, but you need to face everything first and stop running away.”
Xian Guiying looked up at him. “Why do I have to? The world is so big, as long as I am with my daughter, everywhere is a home for me.”
Wei Zhengsheng pursed his lip. The grip on her wrist tightened a little, but it didn’t hurt her. “Guiying, choose me.” His voice was very soft, very light.
Xian Guiying didn’t say anything. Her heart was pounding and her hand was secretly struggling.
“Before coming to Wuyuan, I had met my parents. They know about you; they know about your condition, and they know about the existence of Qianqian.” Wei Zhengsheng held her hand tightly and did not let her struggle. “They agreed to let you be the Young Madam of Wei Family and also accept Qianqian. Don’t wander around anymore, come back with me.”
People say that when someone was injured and in pain and if the person was alone, it may not be so painful that they will cry. However, once someone comes to comfort them, the tears will not stop.
Xian Guiying’s eyes became wet and the struggle slowly left her body. Wei Zhengsheng was sitting on the couch. He used a little force and pulled her into his arms.
Xian Guiying didn’t think he would pull her towards him suddenly. She lost her balance and stumbled, falling into his arms uncontrollably.
Wei Zhengsheng put his arm around her shoulder to suppress her faint resistance. “I don’t need to repeat what I’ve told you before, you should understand it.”
“Brother Wei, I..” Xian Guiying tried to push him away.
He restrained her. “I know you don’t want to ‘delay’ my life, but Guiying, you’ve been delaying me for over ten years. You’re afraid that bringing up your child would affect my relationship with my parents, so before I came here, I already met them and they’d agreed with my wishes. I have removed all the obstacles for you secretly, what is the reason for you to reject me now?”
Wei Zhengsheng was always gentle and never thought of forcing her to do anything.
However, at this point, Xian Guiying seemed to feel completely ready.
He hugged her. The strength of his hug was not strong enough, but he was able to provide her with enough warmth. She stopped fighting and hesitated before speaking, “The divorce agreement, he didn’t sign it.”
“I already know that.” Wei Zhengsheng frowned slightly, but his mood was not affected.
“I feel a little uncomfortable. Let me take a deep breath.” Xian Guiying pushed him away and suddenly stood up. She hurriedly walked to the old narrow balcony. She lowered her head to take a deep breath. Her heart was beating fast. She had felt this way before.
She used to have a heartbeat like this when with the man she loved, but then it seemed like this time, this pounding heart was no longer for him.
Wei Shanyuan once asked her, did she really have no feelings for Wei Zhengsheng? At that time, she couldn’t answer his question. She didn’t answer because she didn’t know, she wasn’t sure. All this time, her heart only beat for one person. Although she wanted to live a new life, but a glance at him was enough to make her suddenly give up.
Xian Guiying closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she was shocked to find a silver-grey SUV parked downstairs at some point.
Xian Guiying frowned, feeling something was wrong. She looked in the direction of the car intently, but she could not figure out what was wrong.
In urban areas adjacent to the ancient city, it was impossible to find such high-class off-road cars as this in this old district. Although it was not a very luxurious car, it was still a car worth two to three hundred thousand yuan.
She had lived here for a year and knew that most of the residents living here were from Wuyuan, and those who came here for business rarely bought a house, nor would they buy a nice car.
She continued to feel that the car’s appearance was very strange, and subconsciously, she felt that maybe the person …
The car seemed to stop there for a long time. Perhaps she didn’t notice the car when she came back with Wei Zhengsheng. Xian Guiying didn’t know if there’s anyone in the car or not.
“Are you sure this bottle of Lafite is for us?” Wei Zhengsheng’s voice suddenly sounded behind her.
Xian Guiying came back to her senses and turned around, seeing Wei Zhengsheng holding a Lafite Wine. Her embarrassed and confused expression immediately disappeared, and she immediately laughed. “I have followed my brother’s habit of collecting good wine. I never have the opportunity to drink it, but I guess this is a perfect moment to drink it.”
“Before you got pregnant, you’ve become addicted to smoking and drinking. Thankfully, you’ve tried your best to control your addiction once you got pregnant. I see that you haven’t smoked since your marriage. Have you smoked this year?”
“No.” Xian Guiying lied and smiled. “When my sister-in-law caught me doing so, she forced me to stop the habit. I admitted that back then, I feel that only alcohol and cigarette can solve my problem.”
Xian Guiying chuckled slightly. “But I’ve given up. Besides, Qianqian can’t smell the smoke and I don’t want to hear her cough.”
“Then this wine …”
“Like I said, I’m just collecting it. I’m alone with my daughter; how dare I drink it? I’m afraid something will be wrong. Alright, I’m going to Square Street to look at my shop. If nothing happens, I will close the shop early tonight and eat with you two brothers. It’s rare for you both to be in Wuyuan. No matter how much money I make, I can’t ignore my friends, can I?”
Wei Zhengsheng smiled faintly. “Your profit for a year is a one-tenth of the one you earned in Xian’s.”
Xian Guiying awkwardly scratched her neck. “There is no way to compare at all.”
However, she was happy and at ease.
“I’ll go change my clothes first. It’s a bit hot today, wait for me a minute. We’ll go to the shop together later. Qianqian will stay at home for a while and we’ll go home early today to accompany her.”
With that, Xian Guiying walked past Wei Zhengsheng.
Wei Zhengsheng walked to the old balcony and looked at the railing on the balcony. He felt that the safety on the balcony was not guaranteed, so he frowned, walked over, and grabbed the railing in front of him. He looked down and his gaze couldn’t help but pause.
