"She must be alive, right? She's survived for more than ten years, and she's not going to die easily. Even though she's very thin, small, and looks like she needed someone else's protection, she's actually smarter than anyone. She's definitely still alive. I can definitely find her." A smile hung in the corner of his mouth as Qin Gengxin muttered to himself.
A gust of wind blew, and the smell of alcohol on his body permeated through her nose. Xian Guiying suddenly didn't know where to put her hand. She just looked at him with a dry and unusual look.
Since then, Xian Guiying rarely approached him. Even Qin Gengxin's secretary noticed it and teased him a little, asking why Miss Xian didn't come to see him often anymore, even asking if he had angered the little beauty.
Qin Gengxin was a bit confused at the time, but because it was a hectic period for him, he just called Xian Guiying to ask about her current condition. From the tone of her voice on the phone, she didn't seem to be unhappy, and he clearly didn't provoke her.
Still, he knew that Xian Guiying had come to the United States to take charge of Xian Enterprise. At that time, Xian Zihao often handed over some important tasks to Xian Guiying, he wanted to train her properly.
Knowing that Xian Guiying was busy with Xian Enterprise, Qin Gengxin didn't think too much of it.
Perhaps every man had an unruly age and Qin Gengxin was a wholly unrestrained and free young master. In addition to his outstanding appearance, he had achieved great accomplishments in his career at such a young age. There were many girls who admired him.
Although he always thought of Jiang Ruolan in his heart, he basically never turned down the beauty that came knocking on his door. He could either acted on the spot or pretended to be real. Qin Gengxin was notorious for being romantic at that time.
Xian Guiying received formal training at Xian Enterprise. She combined the diplomatic and business skills of both Qin Gengxin and Xian Zihao, as well as some of her experience in financial management to sum up a set of strategies that combined Xian Enterprise's strength.
Xian Zihao was very pleased with her performance and gradually handed over all the big and small projects to her.
He could tell that Xian Guiying had learned a lot from Qin Gengxin. It was just that Qin Gengxin wasn't serious enough whenever he was with her. If they continued to get along like this, it might cause some trouble in the future.
Recently, Xian Guiying quietly spent her time in Xian Enterprise and no longer went to Qin Gengxin's place. Xian Zihao felt that it was a bit strange and asked some questions, but she just said that she had been in the United States for two years and had done a lot of things that needed to be learned.
It was unknown whether Xian Zihao believed her explanation or not. He just looked at her at the time, as if he had seen through her, and said half-heartedly, "If you like someone but don't know how to talk or how to get along, then you might as well change it to another way to get along."
When Xian Guiying heard his words, she first looked at him in surprise. However, Xian Zihao just smiled softly, his eyes filled with the brotherly love and pampering.
Indeed, she liked Qin Gengxin, but because he had told others that she was his sister and did not have any improper feelings towards her, nor did he have any other feelings towards her, Xian Guiying decided to stay quiet. Although she liked him, she didn't know how to talk without getting embarrassed.
However, what Qin Gengxin had said after drinking that day made Xian Guiying aware. It might not be the best way to continue like this. Neither for him nor for her.
Initially, she only wanted to become an existence that he couldn't leave behind, waiting for everything to slowly bear fruit before she would say anything. However, Qin Gengxin actually had someone he likes, which directly interfered with her original plans.
For a moment, she didn't know how to continue staying by his side. She felt like a third person, deliberately inserting herself into someone else's relationship. Even if Qin Gengxin was not with that woman, but for a girl under the age of twenty, this kind of relationship was superfluous.
Since she couldn't straighten her thoughts, Xian Guiying avoided meeting Qin Gengxin all of a sudden. It was only when Xian Zihao told her that they could get along differently that she started to think about these things.
Later, Xian Zihao asked her, "Guiying, what are you planning to do now?"
Xian Guiying just stood in front of the CEO's office window, looking at the view outside without saying anything. Looking at the direction of the Qin Corporation's Building from a distance, she replied, "I want to be stronger, so strong that one day I can stand side by side with the people I love, and also fight alongside each other."
Since then, Xian Guiying had been following very solid training. She was indeed a very talented and smart woman, to begin with. Plus, she studied this major, so she's good at everything. The second year after completing her advanced financial management course, Xian Zihao and Zhou Shufen had split up and he had even helped her.
Qin Gengxin often visited her, and by the time Xian Zihao left the United States, Xian Guiying was already a qualified administrator.
However, Xian Guiying was still young. Before Xian Zihao left, he had asked Qin Gengxin to take care of her. Naturally, Qin Gengxin agreed.
In the following years, Xian Guiying did it.
When she first took over the company, some of the company's senior staff weren't convinced with her strength even though she was the President's sister.
However, with the help of Qin Gengxin and Wei Zhengsheng, she managed to overcome this difficult situation. It was not until she relied on her own wisdom and tactics to achieve great success in a particular collaboration that the entire company was no longer dissatisfied with her.
She let everyone in the Xian Enterprise know that she, Xian Guiying, was not only Xian Zihao's little sister. If her big brother can do it, she can as well.
Who said that women were inferior to men?
Nonsense!
Slowly Xian Guiying's name became famous in Boston. Qin Gengxin even took her to all sorts of occasions, which allowed her to get to know a lot of people in the business world. She gradually managed to attract their interest.
Since then, she had truly been able to stand side by side with the people she liked. They would attend business meetings, important banquets and often discuss a certain company's project's feasibility.
They would also discuss life's issues with each other.
At that time, although Qin Gengxin's name was very famous and his personality as an amorous man was popular, he only treated her as her qualified brother. He helped her to grow a pair of wings.
Qin Gengxin was always attentive and gentle towards Xian Guiying. He was funny and polite, no matter how warm he was with other women. Why? Because as long as he was in front of her, he would always restrain himself.
Xian Guiying really understood his character. Even though she knew that Qin Gengxin was only playing with the girls, she often quietly frowned when she saw him talking to the pretty girls.
Every time this happened, Qin Gengxin would pinch her nose and ask why she looked so serious, that it was just for a show.
He needed to know which woman was the leaders' daughter, which woman was their granddaughter, etc. He would always talk to her about these people, whoever they were so that she could sort out the situation in front of her.
Over time, Xian Guiying tried to change his bad habit. Whenever he went out for a drink with a certain woman, she always sat silently on the side, watching him interact with the woman.
Once, Xian Guiying found out that Qin Gengxin had gone to the hotel to "talk" with the goddaughter of a certain mogul. On the same day, his assistant had an urgent matter to discuss with him, but he had turned off his phone.
Since Xian Guiying knew which room he lived in, she took the opportunity to knock on the door and entered.
As soon as she entered, she saw that Qin Gengxin was already taking a shower. He had cleaned the smell of alcohol from his body and put on a bathrobe. The daughter of the big boss who pestered him had already left.
At that time, Qin Gengxin seemed to understand her startled look, so he leaned against the wall with his hands crossed over his chest and smiled at her. "What? Are you afraid that your beloved brother Gengxin has been eaten alive?"
The corner of Xian Guiying's mouth twitched. She had a desire to tear his smiling face apart, only to hold it back in the end. She calmly told him about his assistant's problem and left without looking back.
