My Little Sweet Wife Chapter 656

Xian Guiying stopped, her back was facing him before she turned to look at him.
Qin Gengxin walked towards her after slamming the driver's seat car door shut. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her to the side of the car. He opened the passenger's door and said, "Get in."
Xian Guiying looked at him and thought he was being unreasonable. "I can take a taxi. You are drunk and I don't want to sit inside that car with you in this condition."
"I'm not so bad at driving and I'm not drunk! You don't have to worry about your own safety!" Without giving her another chance to speak, he pushed her into the car and closed the door.
Xian Guiying wanted to open the car door and get out, but he had already entered and locked all the doors. He didn't let her out, and without asking where she was going, he drove the car to the beach.
When the car stopped on the beach, he got out and stood in front of the rail, looking at the sea in front of him in silence.
This was a side of him that she had never seen before. He seemed to hide too many emotions.
He just stood there. The wind blew his coat.
For two hours... He stood there for two hours without moving, staring out at sea.
Xian Guiying knew that the sea wind was very cold and if she went out there and caught a cold, she was afraid it will affect her health and the baby in her womb, so she did not get out of the car. She just sat in the car and looked at his figure.
At the time, she still loved him very much. She loved him so much that, even though she had many questions in her heart, she didn't want to ask them.
She saw a cigarette box in a drawer. It's empty. The case was still in the car, so he must have smoked in the car that day.

Why did Qin Gengxin smoke so much?
Was he frustrated with her?
Xian Guiying's waist hurt and her legs were numb. Since the wind by the sea was too strong ]and to avoid herself from getting sick, she didn't bother walking to the beach to call Qin Gengxin, so she spent her time looking around the car. There weren't many taxis here, but luckily, an empty taxi passed by, so she opened the car door and got out.
Just as she was about to close the door, Qin Gengxin looked back. When he saw her get out of the car and went into a taxi, he just looked at her and didn't stop her.
Xian Guiying glanced at him, then got into the taxi and went back to the Xian Residence.
Qin Gengxin did not chase her, nor did he call her afterward.
During dinner time, Old Man Xian received a call from Qin Xiaowen to discuss which VIP guests would be invited during the wedding banquet. Naturally, the marriage alliance between the Qin and Xian Family would be grand and lively.
While hanging up the phone, the old man noticed that Xian Guiying was eating a little, so he put down his chopsticks and said, "Eat more. When you are healthy, then your child must be very healthy too."
"I'm not hungry. I'm full." Xian Guiying put down her chopsticks and was about to get up when the Old Man called her name.
"Guiying." Since her pregnancy was revealed, Xian Guiying became quieter. "Sit down and talk to grandpa."
Xian Guiying's movement stopped and she turned to look at him.
The Old Man drank a mouthful of hot water and also ate two bites of food. This was a habit of him when he ate, and then he looked at her. "Are you familiar with the Qin Family?"
"How familiar is it to be?" She didn't understand the Old Man's question and couldn't help but ask back.

"Child, be straightforward. Grandpa is asking you if Qin Gengxin has any close relatives other than his parents," the Old Man sighed.
When Xian Guiying saw the Old Man's expression, she hesitated for a moment before saying, "I heard from my brother that Qin Gengxin's grandparents on his father's side are already gone, and Mrs. Qin only has one old mother, who is Qin Gengxin's grandmother. She is over the age of seventy.
"Oh? You know ... " Old Man Xian paused. No one knew what he was thinking. "Do you know his grandmother's name?"
"How should I know? Who has the time to call and inquire about his grandmother's name?" Xian Guiying scoffed. She didn't want to say anything more to the Old Man, so she said, "If you want to know something, you should immediately ask the people from the Qin Family, right? Your granddaughter is not so powerful that she knows everything. "
While speaking, she ignored Zhan An's gentle persuasion and Xian Jian's cold rebuke and went straight upstairs.
After that, the Old Man never asked about the Qin Family matters again. It's just that he seemed to have something on his mind, but Xian Guiying couldn't figure out what it was.
For Xian Guiying, if Zhan An and Xian Zihao were not members of the Xian Family, then this place was even comparable to a hotel.
In her childhood memories, there was one more person who treated her very well. That person was her grandmother. Unfortunately, her grandmother died young. She remembered the day when her grandmother was admitted to the hospital. It was raining heavily, and there were many people standing outside the ward. Her brother held her hand as they stood in the corridor.
Old Man Xian didn't come out of the ward for more than an hour. When he came out, he looked a little haggard, bent down to caress her brother's and her head, then looked at Cui Luixian, who was held in Zhan An's arms. He then said softly, "Your grandmother went to a very, very far place and will never come back."
At that time, Xian Guiying cried. Although she did not understand the meaning of death, she understood that she would never see her grandmother again.
Cui Luixian was too young to understand anything. She was the only one who stood quietly in Zhan An's arms and giggled happily.
Years later, before she left home, Xian Guiying spent a week alone in the attic. While she was tidying up her belongings, she suddenly found an old photo in the drawer.
It was an old black-and-white picture, faded and yellow, but a woman in her twenties could be seen in it. She was beautiful.
Xian Guiying was so shocked when she saw the photo. Hearing Nanny Cheng's footsteps as she went into the attic to bring her food, Xian Guiying hurriedly put the photo back inside the drawer.
When she saw that picture, she had some wild thoughts about it, but when she went to America, she started to forget about it and never thought of it again.
However, when the Old Man suddenly asked her about Qin Gengxin's grandmother that night during dinner, Xian Guiying suddenly thought of the photo. Still, the Old Man only had her grandmother in his life, and he never played with any women outside of the house, so he shouldn't have had a relationship with another woman.
Furthermore, after her grandmother's death, he often sat in the ancestral hall and everyone knew that whenever he went there, that meant he missed his wife.
So it's possible she was just overthinking it.
