It was a text from Wei Zhengsheng, a text message from an hour ago. Xian Guiying only saw it now.

She smiled with gratitude and replied,

"There's no need. It's already fine.

"

Afterward, she contacted her friends. While she was waiting for news, she went to the resting room to lie down.

Xian Guiying didn't know if it was because she was pregnant or what, but she felt that she had recently been having a low fever, dizziness and was very tired.

With a slight itch on her nose, Xian Guiying opened her eyes sleepily and saw Qin Wenqian's cute little face in front of her. The little girl was lying beside her with a piece of paper in her hand, stroking her mother's nose and face from time to time.

"Little Scoundrel.

" Xian Guiying didn't know whether to laugh or cry as she took the paper slip from the girl's hand. She sat up slowly because her waist was hurting. She glanced at the paper slip in her hand and threw it into the basket beside the bed.

"Daddy took me to visit his company. When we got back, daddy saw mommy sleep really well, so he let me stay here.

" Qin Wenqian smiled happily as she lay in her mother's arms.

"Mommy slept soundly. Qianqian used a small paper slip to play with mommy's face for a long time before mommy woke up.

"

"That's because mom is pregnant with Qianqian's little brother or sister. When mommy is pregnant with the baby, mommy will feel very tired and very sleepy, so that's why mommy likes this. Qianqian, mommy has worked so hard to get a little brother or sister for you, so you must be healthy and grow up safely and must be an obedient child.

"

"Yes, mommy, I know!

"

The door to the resting room was opened from outside and Qin Gengxin walked in. Since it was his own private resting room, he would take off his jacket and shirt whenever he wanted to and lay on the bed half-naked. After all, there were no important visitors in the office, and no occasions were available for him to attend.

When he walked inside, he saw the mother and daughter pair talking on the bed. He walked over with a smile and said,

"You finally awake.

"

Upon hearing his question, Xian Guiying remembered that Qin Wenqian had said that she had slept soundly for a long time. She turned her head to look around for a clock, but she couldn't find it. She couldn't help but ask,

"What time is it?

"

"I've already worked overtime for two hours. What time do you think it is?

" Qin Gengxin chuckled and turned to the window, opening the curtains that covered the room well. Only then did Xian Guiying notice that it was already night.

"I slept that long?

" Xian Guiying hurriedly put Qin Wenqian down.

"Then let's hurry up and go home.

"

As she spoke, she was about to bend over to put on her shoes, but just as she bent over, she let out a painful groan.

"What's wrong?

" Seeing her uncomfortable expression while holding her waist with one hand, Qin Gengxin immediately asked,

"Back pain?

"

"Yes.

" Xian Guiying sighed. The last time she was pregnant with Qin Wenqian, it was still normal and bearable, so why was there so much pregnancy reaction this time? She couldn't help sighing as she said,

"It's not easy to be a mother.

"

Qin Gengxin originally wanted to ask why her back was hurt, but because of her words, he immediately understood that it had something to do with her pregnancy.

He squatted in front of Xian Guiying and helped her put on her shoes. Xian Guiying stared at him blankly.

"Guiying.

" After helping her put on her shoes, Qin Gengxin lightly held her ankle.

"Looking at how uncomfortable you are, I'm a little doubtful and too selfish by letting you conceive our children again.

"

"I didn't experience things like this when you were pregnant with Qianqian. I didn't know how you would spend the next ten months, and I wanted to compensate you, experience the feeling of being with you when you are pregnant and when you give birth. I just didn't expect you to be so uncomfortable.

"

After saying that, he got up and sat beside her. He put his arm around her shoulders and pushed her head to his shoulder.

"I didn't have such a big reaction when I was pregnant with Qianqian. I just threw up. However, the pregnancy reaction is very different, and it's not always the same. Anyway, this is a normal reaction, it's okay, I just need to get over the initial period.

" Xian Guiying smilingly lifted her head and kissed him on the chin.

"Being able to be a mother so easily, there is a price to pay. If you don't go through conception and upbringing, how can you view your child as more important than your own life?

"

"Actually, right now, I am very happy. With you accompanying me, even if I feel very uncomfortable, I am also very happy. I am both in pain and happy.

"

Qin Gengxin smiled and lowered his head to peck her lips.

"After this little mischievous brat is born, I will definitely spank their butt first. They dared to torture you like this.

"

Xian Guiying smiled and tapped him on the shoulder.

"You're so childish. How can you say that to your child?

"

Qin Gengxin ignored her question and pecked her lips again and again before giving her an intense kiss.

Qin Wenqian, who stood at the side, watched in astonishment as her father continued to eat her mother's mouth. She stared blankly for a long time before lying down beside them and burrowing into their embrace.

"I also want to eat mommy's mouth!

"

The news about Qin Corporation suddenly spread all over the place. Almost all the front pages of major financial newspapers were filled with reports of the company.

This morning was the first day Qin Corporation officially faced the pressures from the Bai Group in the open. Bai Group joined together with a few other related investors and their partners, went to Boston to negotiate.

Xian Guiying only vaguely knew that something was going to happen to Qin Corporation today. However, when she saw that Qin Gengxin was happily playing with his daughter and sleeping with her last night, she did not mention anything about it.

When she went to pick up the child from kindergarten, she passed a newspaper shop when she saw a magnified photo of Qin Gengxin on a newspaper page out of the corner of her eye.

It didn't look like the photo had just been taken today. It looked like this person was using old photos to win people's attention. However, when she saw the headline in the newspaper, she immediately picked up the newspaper and read it.

'The CEO of Qin Corporation, Qin Gengxin, has given up on running away from the company.'

'On the day of the negotiation, a few big bosses came forward, but there's no figure of President Qin. Where did he go?'

'For the past few months, we have seen the destruction of Qin Corporation. In the end, the difficulty has passed and they will be swallowed by the Bai Group.'

'Qin Gengxin did not appear on the day of the negotiation, so everyone suspected that he was being kidnapped by Mrs. Bai's people. The media speculated that there was disagreement in opinions.'

'The company is going to collapse soon. Where's Qin Gengxin hiding?'

There were many eye-catching topics, but the actual content of the news was the same.

Qin Gengxin had already been preparing for such a long time, but the newspaper suddenly said that he did not appear on the day of the negotiation.

Why didn't Qin Gengxin appear?

Didn't he go to the company?

Xian Guiying frowned as she looked again at the rumor of kidnapping.

"Miss, are you going to buy it?

"

Xian Guiying was looking at the front page of the newspapers, but she didn't say which one she wanted to buy. The person sitting in the newsstand stared at her.

"Someone is lining up at the back who wants to buy one.

"

In foreign countries, reading was a good habit, so there were many people buying magazines and newspapers.

Xian Guiying came back to her senses and looked at the man in front of her. She apologetically smiled at him.

"Sorry, I'll buy this one.

"

As she spoke, she handed over the money in her hand, then walked back to her car.

Qin Wenqian was sitting on a child's seat in the back seat. When she saw her mother with a newspaper in hand, she giggled.

"Mommy, what are you reading?

"

Xian Guiying glanced at Qin Wenqian with a smile and said,

"I just randomly bought a newspaper. Qianqian, seat carefully. Mommy will go make a phone call.

"

"Oh.

" Qin Wenqian nodded as she stuck her head against the window, watching as Xian Guiying walked to the side of the lawn and took out her phone.

She dialed Qin Gengxin's phone but was turned off, and even Huang Jingguo's phone couldn't be connected. In the end, she called Qin Corporation's receptionist, but no one answered for a long time.

From the corner of her eyes, she caught sight of some people not far away from her, sneaking around as if they were planning to approach her quietly. Those people were very well-hidden, but because the sunlight was a bit blinding, she immediately saw two figures there when she looked in that direction.

Xian Guiying paused for a moment and looked at Qin Wenqian, who was in the car. Instinctively feeling that something was wrong, she put down her phone and quickly got in the car. She then closed all the windows, shut the door, and drove away.
