Chapter 719 - He Had Ruined The Body Of A Woman Who Looked Strong On The Outside
Because the Old Man was not in good health, dinner only lasted for an hour or so. Xian Jian, Xian Zihao, and Qin Gengxin spent their time drinking. In the middle of it, Xian Zihao got a call and had something to discuss in his company, so he left first. In the end, it left with Qin Gengxin and Xian Jian.
They chatted and laughed in the living room until around nine o'clock. Meanwhile, Xian Guiying went to the attic in the back, doing something. Just as she entered and was about to turn on the lights and air conditioning, she was suddenly hugged by someone from behind. Qin Gengxin smelled faintly of alcohol, but he was not drunk.
The air in the room was a little hot and stuffy. Xian Guiying gently pushed him away and whispered, "Don't disturb me. The soundproofing here isn't very good."
"There's only the two of us in here; no one will listen to us." Qin Gengxin smiled as he lowered his head to lightly kiss her neck. His voice was low and hoarse as he said, "Wife ~"
Xian Guiying felt tickled by his kiss. She raised her hand to punch his chest. "Stop messing around; who's your wife?! We are divorced."
"We're going to remarry right now!" Qin Gengxin let go of her but held her hand and pushed her to leave.
"What kind of joke is this? What time is it now? How could there be a Civil Affairs Bureau office open at the moment? Besides, I don't agree! Stop fooling around! I'll turn on the lights, you shower and sleep!"
Qin Gengxin reached out to hug her again. He lowered his head and kissed her hair.
Feeling the intense warmth, Xian Guiying didn't have the heart to push him away. She only tried to fight a little but didn't move anymore, letting him hug her.
"Guiying, I know you're still angry at this family. Even though you've repeatedly told yourself that you have to calmly and peacefully eat dinner with everyone, but in your heart, it's actually filled with dark waves. You don't like this family, you don't like your own father, and you don't like your own grandfather, but you must endure all the grievances in order to make your grandfather happy. If you feel bad, you can tell me anything. Don't hold it back, and don't argue with your father again."
Xian Guiying didn't move. It was clear that what Qin Gengxin said was not wrong. After a moment of silence, she turned around in his embrace and wrapped her arms around his neck. Without saying a word, she raised her head and kissed him.
Qin Gengxin kissed back gently. After kissing for a while, he felt some salty tears on his lips. He paused and looked at her face.
The dim moonlight shone into the bedroom. Tears welled up in Xian Guiying's eyes. When Qin Gengxin looked at her, she laughed. She wiped the tears with her hand and said, "Can't you pretend you didn't see me cry?"
Qin Gengxin sighed. "The number of times you cried in front of me can be counted with five fingers. Can't I take a good look?"
"You're crazy." Xian Guiying reprimanded him. She moved away from his embrace and was about to turn on the lights when Qin Gengxin suddenly grabbed her by the waist. She cried out softly and looked at him, but her lips were sealed by him.
"Ugh!"
Xian Guiying wanted to take a shower, but Qin Gengxin held her waist tightly, not allowing her to escape from his embrace.
"It's too hot, I want to take a shower." She whispered as he gently pushed her to the bed.
His fingers brushed across her sensitive spot on her chest. Her entire body felt as if it had been electrocuted, and her blood began to gush out from her body.
"Let's shower together later." Qin Gengxin's kiss was very fiery and very deep. It carried an incomparable amount of tender pity.
Xian Guiying wanted to speak, but she didn't have the chance. His lips and tongue constantly tangled with hers as if he was pouring out all his years of longing. She couldn't bear this kind of teasing, much less this sweet joy.
Suddenly, like a bolt of lightning cutting through the dark night sky, she felt a hint of salt at the corner of her mouth. Xian Guiying gasped and opened her eyes.
"Gengxin." She took his face in her hands, and he tilted his head away, his hot fingertips touching her eyelids, blocking her view.
"Why are you crying?" Her eyes were blocked, so she had to ask with her eyes closed.
"Nothing, I just feel heartache."
"Heartache for what?"
Qin Gengxin did not say anything. Previously, he deeply rooted his desire to protect Jiang Ruolan in his heart due to his young heroism and because she had been bullied in front of him. Then from Xian Zihao, he met Xian Guiying.
He had once admired her and had treated her like a rock that couldn't be broken. They had only been back to Xian Family for a few days, and he could tell that every step Xian Guiying took in the Xian Family was for the sake of others.
In order to make the Old Man and her father happy, in order to reassure her mother and brother, in order to calm the Xian Family, she had to bear all the grievances and only smiled at everyone.
In those years, he had ruined the body of a woman who looked strong on the outside but was weaker on the inside than anyone else.
Xian Guiying and Jiang Ruolan were not the same. Even though Jiang Ruolan was cruelly bullied by everyone in the Jiang Family, but her heart was terrifyingly strong. She could fight against them without anyone's help. Xian Guiying, on the other hand, was only pretending to be strong.
When Qin Gengxin thought about all the harm he had done to her over the years, he gently kissed the corner of her mouth.
"Gengxin." Xian Guiying pushed his face away and pressed her hand against his cheek. "I'm fine, I'm really fine. At least I have you now, right?"
Over the past twelve or so years, she had repeatedly asked him this question. She could not help but bury her face in his chest and sniffed his comforting and familiar scent.
Xian Guiying closed her eyes and listened to Qin Gengxin's heartbeat. It was this smell, this touch; she had been waiting for these all her life.
She held him like this for a long time. Although the air was hot and stuffy, it couldn't stop them from sticking even closer together.
Qin Gengxin lowered his head slowly and kissed her shoulder. "Yes, you have me."
He then bit her earlobe and viciously said, "I'd rather die on you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he picked her up and wrapped her legs around his waist. The man's strong body pressed against hers, overlapping at the same time.
"Guiying, let's find some time to remarry, okay?" His hoarse voice had a hint of stubbornness to it.
"Yes."
Xian Guiying was suffocated by the pressure and tried to protest in a weak voice. Suddenly, she heard footsteps on the stairs to the attic.
