Chapter 717 – Are You Trying To Apologize On Behalf Of Grandpa
Xian Guiying silently walked over and stared at his figure. Without saying a single word, she suddenly embraced him.
Qin Gengxin was originally standing there watching the kids playing in the living room while waiting for Huang Jingguo's call. Suddenly, he was hugged like this and he couldn't help but look back at her, and then put his hand on her waist, bringing her to his side.
He looked at Xian Guiying's quiet appearance and asked, "Have you finished talking?"
"En." Xian Guiying leaned her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes. She quietly listened to his heartbeat and said softly, "Qin Gengxin, when you first saw me, how did you feel?"
He immediately smiled. "I don't know how to describe it, but it should be more or less breathtaking."
"Breathtaking?" She glanced at him.
Qin Gengxin laughed. "That's right, back then I felt that I had seen quite a few beauties in the past few years, regardless of whether they were black hair, yellow hair, white skin, dark skin, or whatever color their eyes were, I have never seen such a beautiful girl like you. How could a person's body be filled with innocence and beauty at the same time? How could she laugh so warmly, yet with a hint of coldness in her temperament? To be honest, my words are a bit contradictory. I just don't know how to describe the feeling."
"Then if I wasn't Xian Tingfeng's granddaughter, would you fall in love with me the first time we met?" Xian Guiying asked innocently like a child.
Qin Gengxin thought for a moment, then replied, "Probably not."
"Why?"
"With my personality, if I had fallen in love with you without any hindrances, I would have tried my best to eat you dry first. At that time, I was still young and felt that it would be better to talk about our relationship in bed. If this was really the case, then even if the two of us fell in love a long time ago, we would have already broken up." He patted her shoulder. "Unlike now, I know what's the most important thing."
Even if Xian Zihao was in the United States, it wouldn't affect Qin Gengxin in the slightest. However, it was because of this deliberate evasion that Xian Guiying and him could see each other and understand each other more clearly.
Even if Qin Gengxin was no longer so young and arrogant, even if the three words 'I love you' had gradually been shyly saying, this sort of invisible closeness was the true love between the heart and the soul.
Xian Guiying closed her eyes again, smiled, and said, "I am very calm now. At first, I was afraid. Afraid that when I learned the truth, we can't be together, but I am very calm now."
"Hmm?" Qin Gengxin looked down at her.
Xian Guiying opened her eyes, lifted her chin, and placed it on his shoulder. She smiled. "I think your grandmother won't make things too difficult for us after a while."
"What is the truth?" Seeing her understanding expression, Qin Gengxin could not help but become curious. "Why did he force my grandfather to death in the past?"
"Your grandfather could be said to have been forced to his death by my grandfather, but at the same time, he wasn't the one who forced him to his death. My grandfather destroyed your grandfather's life, and he also ruined your grandmother's life. But my grandfather regretted it long ago. He knew he was wrong, but he didn't have the courage to apologize. "
Qin Gengxin's arms tightened around her waist, but he didn't say anything.
Xian Guiying knew what he was thinking, but she didn't know whether to say it or not. She looked up at him and said, "Grandfather is not in good health right now, so I don't want him to travel all the way to G City. Even if it's not for our marriage, there are some things I want him to settle."
Qin Gengxin still didn't say anything. He glanced at the children playing downstairs. His phone then rang. He patted Xian Guiying's shoulder and said, "Let me answer the call first. There are some new developments at the company. I need to decide on something for Huang Jingguo."
"Alright." Xian Guiying watched him leave the house to pick up the phone. When she saw Jiang Ruolan playing with children's jigsaw puzzles, she smiled and walked over. "Sister-in-law, are you still working at Fengyu Media?"
Jiang Ruolan raised her eyes and smiled at her. "Right, I'm still working over there. Working there is more comfortable, and over the years, my relationship between colleagues and the like has become very close. I also have a good job, and with Xiong Ruogang helping me, I also have more time that I could spend at home with my children."
"That's good." Xian Guiying sat down beside her and picked up the puzzle. She looked at the picture of Snow White and the seven dwarves, then looked at Qin Wenqian, who was looking for pieces of the puzzle with Xian An Na.
Xian Guiying then smiled and asked, "Sister-in-law, can I ask for your help?"
"Go ahead." Jiang Ruolan put down the puzzle in her hands and said with a smile.
Xian Guiying thought for a moment. "Wait here." She got up and went to the attic. It took her a long time to find the old photo, and when she handed it over to Jiang Ruolan, she saw that Jiang Ruolan was shocked. "This…This photo is so old, it can't be Cui Luixian, right?"
"They do look alike, no wonder grandfather dotes on her so much." Xian Guiying said softly. "I want to use your media channels to write a story that old people often read. It's a true story, but you have to respect the characters in the story, so use an alias, okay?"
"A story?"
"Yes, it would be best if you could publish them in G City. It is a kind of story that old people like to read about."
"Alright, tell me the story. I'll listen to it and see if it's suitable to be released. If possible, I'll contact the newspaper office tomorrow."
Within a time, Xian Guiying finished telling the story the Old Man had just told her. Although she didn't mention who was the protagonist of the character and only mentioned an old man, Jiang Ruolan could grasp the point of it. She was silent for a while before saying softly, "The old soldier in this story, is he grandpa?"
She wasn't questioning; she was certain.
Xian Guiying didn't deny it and just looked at her quietly.
"You want to use this story to let that Old Woman, who lost her husband, see it. Are you trying to apologize on behalf of grandpa?"
"Grandfather's health isn't too good right now. Even if he wanted to apologize, he probably wouldn't be able to travel a long distance. However, after hearing all this, I wanted to do something."
"When I was young, Qin Gengxin's grandmother was not bad to me. When I was often bullied at Jiang Family, Qin Gengxin would often drag me to his house's courtyard and gave me fruits to eat. At that time, his grandmother discovered that we were secretly eating in the corner of the courtyard, but she didn't come over to scold us, nor did she chase me away."
Jiang Ruolan looked at Xian Guiying and said, "All that happened between you and Gengxin must have something to do with his grandmother, right? When I heard your story just now, I suddenly felt enlightened."
Jiang Ruolan was indeed a media worker. Xian Guiying didn't even mention anything about Xing Jia, but Jiang Ruolan could still grasp the truth.
Xian Guiying could only smile. "Sister-in-law, please consider it as a favor from me."
"I will definitely help, but for this kind of story, I need to consider how I should write it first." Jiang Ruolan sat on the couch and looked at the children who were playing the puzzle happily.
She smiled. "Guiying, when will you give Qianqian a friend? You see, Qianqian usually is so lonely, but now she has the leisure to play with Chiahao and An Na, you could see how happy she is. Aren't you going to give your child a little brother or sister?"
