Chapter 680 – He’s Not Important

Xian Guiying held Qin Gengxin's shirt and looked at him for a long time. Qin Gengxin's body felt hot and uncomfortable, and once his clothes were taken off, he seemed to feel better. He lay there with his eyes closed, breathing a sigh of relief.

After looking at him for a moment, Xian Guiying grabbed the thermometer and put it under his armpit.

Forty degrees.

She got up and took off his pants, but she didn't take off his black boxer. She began wiping his body with a wet towel, and as she did so, her fingers brushed his face.

After cleaning him, she took an ice pack from the refrigerator, covered it with a clean towel, and placed it on Qin Gengxin's forehead.

He had a high fever, but he also disliked taking medicine or receiving injections.

But seeing that he seemed to be sleeping more comfortably, Xian Guiying took the basin of water to the bathroom before going back to picking up his clothes, examining the things in his pocket, and removing them all before throwing the clothes in the washing machine.

By the time she finished, it was 11 p.m. By then, she remembered Secretary Dai. Xian Guiying quickly found the phone and called Secretary Dai when she saw a few missed calls from her.

"Secretary Dai? Are you still waiting for me there?"

"What do I have to wait for? What time is it? Did something happen to you? I nearly called President Wei and told him to find you!" There was a bit of anger in Secretary Dai's voice. Anyone who had to wait for a few hours will not be happy.

Xian Guiying said awkwardly, "Sorry, I'm in a hurry and forgot to tell you that you don't have to wait for me. My phone was placed somewhere, I don't know how it became silent, I didn't hear the call at all."

"It's fine. I'd just wait for an hour and then go home. If you have an urgent problem, then you should deal with it first. Anyway, what I want to talk about is your business. Also, aren't you going to meet President Wei's parents tomorrow? You should definitely buy some new clothes. If you don't have time to go out, I'll buy you a suitable dress and have it delivered to you by noon tomorrow."

"No need, I will just find something that can be worn."

"Are you sure about this?"

"I am. A man like Wei Zhengsheng, it's hard to find in this world."

Secretary Dai sighed. "Although I don't know what you're thinking, since you've decided to stay with President Wei, I wish you a happy life. Alright then, it's already late. Go and rest earlier."

After Xian Guiying hung up the phone, she raised her head and looked out the window at a dark night.

Suddenly, she heard some movement from behind. She saw that Qin Wenqian was about to head to Qin Gengxin's bedroom with a doll in her hand. Xian Guiying hurriedly walked over and pulled the girl away.

"Go back to your bed and go to sleep." She turned Qin Wenqian's body facing towards the study.

Qin Wenqian obediently stood in her place. She looked at Xian Guiying but didn't say anything.

However, Xian Guiying understood her silent gaze.

Her daughter wanted to see her father.

Qin Gengxin was still Qin Wenqian's father. No matter if the child blamed him in her heart for not accompanying her when she was growing up, as his daughter, how could she not love her father and not want him?

Xian Guiying stroked the child's head lightly. "Qianqian, be good, daddy is sick. He has a fever. Your immunity is too low, so you can't be near him. You can go see him when he recovers, okay?"

Qin Wenqian pouted before deciding to go back to the study. She had just taken two steps forward when she abruptly stopped. As Xian Guiying was about to enter the bedroom, Qin Wenqian turned around and looked at her. "Mommy, are you and that man okay?"

Xian Guiying looked down at her daughter's innocent eyes.

Qin Wenqian was in kindergarten, and kindergarten teachers had taught their students an easy way to deal with relationships. The children's view of the world was so naive. When two children quarrel, one said sorry, the other said it didn't matter and let the matter go just like that.

In this world of naive children, Xian Guiying pursed her lips. She bent down and suddenly picked her daughter up. "Honey, mommy will go to the study to sleep with you."

"Didn't you have to take care of him?" Qin Wenqian blinked her big eyes innocently.

"He's not important." As she spoke, Xian Guiying carried her daughter into the study and closed the door. She placed the child on the sofa bed and sat on the edge of it, patting her head gently.

Yes, he's not important.

In her world, Xian Guiying had to remember that Qin Gengxin was no longer important.

Qin Wenqian lay on the bed with her eyes closed, letting her mother pat her head patiently. She then blinked her eyes. "Mommy, that man has a fever. Does he need an injection?"

"You don't have to worry about these things. All you have to do now is sleep and get up tomorrow morning to go to kindergarten. Hmm?"

"Oh …" Qin Wenqian frowned and muttered, "The kindergarten auntie here all have colorful hair."

As she spoke, she obediently closed her eyes.

Half an hour later, Xian Guiying came out of the study to take the laundry from the washing machine and hang them on the balcony. She then sat in the living room, looking up at the ceiling.

She didn't know if it was the right or wrong decision to bring Qin Gengxin to this apartment, and maybe she should have just ignored him on the road.

She didn't know when she fell asleep, but cold sweat came out all over her body. Xian Guiying suddenly opened her eyes and saw that the light in the living room was still on. It's 1.30 in the morning.

Remembering that Qin Gengxin was still in the bedroom, she got up and walked back to the bedroom. Seeing that he was still asleep, she took a towel on his forehead and took his temperature again.

Still forty degrees.

Xian Guiying frowned, put down a thermometer, went to pour a cup of water, and brought anti-fever medicine. She sat on the bed and slowly lifted up Qin Gengxin's head.

As she did so, Qin Gengxin unconsciously raised his hand, causing the cup of water in her other hand to almost fall.

"Don't move!" Xian Guiying snapped at him, then let him lean into her arms and put the fever medicine into his mouth. "Take the medicine and drink the water."

Qin Gengxin didn't seem to have any consciousness. He didn't drink the water. When the bitterness in his mouth spread, he scrunched his eyebrows.

"Here, drink the water." Xian Guiying said as she pushed the cup into his mouth.

Out of instinct, Qin Gengxin finally took a sip of water and swallowed the pill. She fed him a few more mouthfuls before stopping.

Xian Guiying put the cup of water aside and was about to help him lie down when Qin Gengxin suddenly reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist.

Xian Guiying was taken aback and fell into the bed while being hugged by Qin Gengxin. He was holding her like his most rare treasure.

She struggled for a moment but felt that he hugged her more tightly.

"Qin Gengxin! What are you doing? Let me go!"

"I'm sorry …" His lips were pressed against her forehead and he said in a faint whisper.
