Chapter 376: Old things with Li Lei
Chapter 376 and Li Lei’s old things
Xia Ling couldn’t help but think of Li Lei.
Li Lei and he are two completely different people. They are extremely hedonistic. They refuse to deal with official duties if they can. They are idle most of the time throughout the year. However, once official business was dealt with, even Xia Ling walking over would not be able to sway him in the slightest. Once, when Li Lei was in a video conference, Xia Ling tried to ask him to cut lemons, but he just touched her head and said, "Be good, don't make trouble." Then he continued talking to Wei Shaoyin.
Xia Ling refused to give in and pulled Li Lei's face, pinched him and hit him.
Even Wei Shaoyin in the video yelled at her: "Step aside and play, didn't you see that we were discussing your new song?!"
Xia Xiaoling burst into tears. She went to cut a lemon for herself and accidentally cut her hand.
After the meeting, Li Lei felt extremely distressed when he saw Wei Shaoyin, and vowed to help her scold Wei Shaoyin back. He rushed back to the study and opened the video aggressively. Before he could even curse a few words, he heard Wei Shaoyin say: "About the new song, I have some promotional plans that I would like to add..."
Then, the two discussed again...
Hand aside classmate Xia Xiaoling, who was waiting for the boss to vent her anger, to the side. Classmate Xia Xiaoling was very unhappy. She went out and poked the remaining lemons as a boss for a long time.
But now that I think about it, these little depressing past events are full of sweetness.
She felt sour in her heart, and forced herself to recover her emotions, and said to Pei Ziheng, "I have some personal belongings that I put in the apartment I shared with Luo Luo. I want to get them back."
Pei Ziheng said warmly: "They are not very good things. If you need anything, I will buy you new ones."
He generally knew her living standard in this life, and knew that she had not spent much of Li Lei's money and that she had made all the utensils by herself. He has also been to that apartment. The things in it are very good for ordinary people, but they are simply not suitable for a prominent person like him.
Pei Ziheng felt sorry for her. She used to be such a spoiled girl. How could she use such bad things?
Xia Ling was quiet and said, "They are all things I bought with my own money, and I couldn't bear to part with them. And...the blue diamond necklace you gave me." It was a gift he gave her when he visited the shared apartment last time.
Pei Ziheng also thought of the necklace, and his face turned pale when he saw that she had not forgotten it.
However, in a second thought, he thought of something: "A gift only for me?"
Xia Ling’s voice was very low: “There is no need to keep the others.”
Pei Ziheng looked at her for a long time, trying to tell whether her words were true or false. She and Li Lei had been together for so long, and there should be a lot of objects around her that were gifts from that man. Could she really be cruel enough to give them all away?
“I’ve returned the amulet, what else do I keep for it?” she said, suppressing the bitterness in her heart.
Pei Ziheng believed it now.
“Let Chu Chen accompany you.” He made a decision.
Pei Ziheng is busy with work on weekdays, and he can hardly spare time to spend with Xia Ling at home. He has no time to accompany her to the original apartment to pack things. And Chu Chen is his confidant, deeply trusted by him, and there is nothing better than Chu Chen to be used to accompany and monitor Xia Ling.
Xia Ling knew that she couldn't resist, so she had no objection.
She didn’t give Chu Chen a good look all the way to the apartment.
Chu Chen also knew that she didn't like him, so he didn't provoke her. He just followed her quietly, remembering everything she packed in his mind, and prepared to go back and report to Pei Ziheng.
When she entered the bedroom, she finally couldn't help it and said with a cold face: "Can you avoid it? I have to pack some very personal items. It's inconvenient for you to follow me." There are differences between men and women, but Pei Ziheng did forget it when he sent someone. Considering this, it would be very embarrassing for Chu Chen to see her wearing some intimate clothes. Chu Chen stood at the door and hesitated.
“Do you think Pei Ziheng will let you follow him?” Xia Ling sneered.
She knew Pei Ziheng too well, and her possessiveness was too strong, to the point of extreme extremes. Since Pei Ziheng regards her as his forbidden love, he will not allow other men to get their hands on her, even if they just see some private items from a distance, it is a taboo.
Chu Chen also knew Pei Ziheng well.
More importantly, he received her at Pei Ziheng's home today.
Pei Ziheng has many residences, but there is only one place that he can truly call "home", which is the place that the late Queen Xia Ling personally arranged before her death and lived with him for more than ten years. After Xia Ling's death, Pei Ziheng collected many women who were similar to her and bought them jewelry, clothes, and mansions, but he never brought anyone back to this home. This home is like a sacred place that cannot be desecrated.
Now, Ye Xingling lives in it.
Chu Chen didn't know what kind of charm this woman had that could make his boss obsessed with her, but he understood one thing deeply - a woman who was on par with the Queen Xia Ling in his boss's heart was not something he could Affordable.
He swallowed his anger and took a few steps back to make room for her.
Xia Ling closed the door with a bang.
She rummaged through the jewelry box on the bedside and quickly found a necklace. To be precise, it was a thin chain wearing a platinum ring. It had an exquisite design, a gorgeous shape, and was full of brilliance. The inner ring was decorated with elegant flowers. Small letters are engraved on the body: LY.
The abbreviation of her and Li Lei's surnames.
She held the small platinum ring pendant in her hand and held it close to her heart. The heart that had been worried, fearful and helpless these days seemed to suddenly find its backbone and settle down.
With it, it is as if the man is still by her side, giving her support and strength.
She carefully hid the platinum ring close to her body, packed a few pieces of clothing, dug out the blue diamond necklace given by Pei Ziheng from the depths of the closet, and then opened the bedroom door.
Chu Chen was still waiting outside. When he saw her coming out, he took a look at her and found nothing strange, so he felt a little relieved.
“Meow…” Suddenly, a small cat meow was heard. The two of them lowered their heads and saw a small cat walking out of nowhere, raising its tail and rubbing Xia Ling's ankle.
"Maotuanzi." Xia Ling knelt down and touched the kitten's furry head lovingly.
“You raised it?” Chu Chen asked.
"Yeah." Xia Ling looked at the kitten and recalled Li Lei's smiling voice on that rainy night - "If you like it, take it back and raise it." ]
Nowadays, things have changed and people have changed.
Her eyes were a little moist and she took a deep breath.
Chu Chen said: "The boss doesn't like pets very much." He saw that she was deeply favored by the boss, so he gave a few words. I think back then, even the late Queen Xia Ling tried to raise a cat and repeatedly acted coquettishly and cutely in front of her boss, but she failed to keep a single kitten and was given away secretly by her boss.
Let alone her.
