Chapter 433: cruise party
Chapter 433 Cruise Party
Pei Ziheng was slightly startled. So, she would also care about him?
I feel like I'm overthinking it again. With Xiao Ling's temper, I'm afraid she's spoiled. Her unhappiness is purely because she wasn't coaxed in time. His eyes passed over her, looking at the criss-crossing red lines on the altar. After her death, he had a doubtful attitude and asked someone to set up this altar to summon her soul, hoping that she would return to him.
When he missed her, Pei Ziheng would sit here and think countless times that if she could come back, no matter how angry she was with him, he would be happy with it.
But when she really stared at him, he only felt sad.
"You are talking!" Xia Ling was very angry, "Do you know how long I have been looking for you?"
“Will you still care about me?” There was a touch of bitterness in his voice, as well as an imperceptible hint of hope.
But Xia Ling didn't notice the glimmer of hope, and was only hurt by the distrust and sarcasm in his words. Her anger rose, angry and aggrieved: "Okay... very good, Pei Ziheng, I shouldn't have come to you at all, you deserve to be left here to fend for yourself!"
She said, turned around and walked out.
Pei Ziheng chased after her and hugged her from behind: "Xiao Ling, don't go."
“Let me go!” Xia Ling was extremely angry.
Pei Ziheng said nothing and refused to let go. On the battlefield of love, the person who loves the most is always the first to admit defeat: "I was wrong, don't leave."
His husky voice made her heart soften suddenly.
Looking around, there are news clippings, CDs, and old things from her past everywhere. How much time and effort did this man spend to collect them one by one?
Xia Ling wanted to tell herself not to be deceived by the hypocrisy of the beast behind her, but she couldn't break away from him, let alone abandon him. She couldn't put up a cold attitude to face the subdued him. He was such a proud person. How desperate was he forced to do before he admitted his mistake?
Her nose was a little sore, both for him and for herself.
He held her body tightly, as if she wanted to rub her into his chest. Xia Ling was in a little pain from being strangled and couldn't help but say, "Let go of me, I won't leave."
“Don’t lie to me.”
She was angry and wanted to laugh at the same time, "Why did I lie to you? Pei Ziheng, where can I go? You have imprisoned me in a cage for a long time. My whole being is yours. Why are you worried?"
Her voice gradually became sad.
Has ended her relationship with Li Lei, and in the future, she will really have to spend her remaining days in Pei Ziheng's cage.
Pei Ziheng pulled her body over and said, "Xiao Ling, don't get involved with others anymore. Let's live a good life."
"Who else can I get entangled with?" she said softly, trying not to recall Li Lei's lonely back under the street lights that night, "I will stay by your side safely and raise the child."
This is the first time she has given him such a promise.
Pei Ziheng was ecstatic and hugged her tightly again.
Maybe it was the whole basement of old things and his submissive attitude that touched Xia Ling's heart. After that day, she stopped being sarcastic towards Pei Ziheng. But she still hated him in her heart. When she saw his face, she remembered that it was this hateful man who separated her from her beloved and separated their family of three. She didn't want to see him, so she often hid in the recording studio and worked night shifts on the pretext of being busy at work.
Pei Ziheng would bring food to see her, sit behind the huge soundproof glass wall, and quietly watch her singing. She would pretend not to notice, sing to herself, and deliberately re-record over and over again to stall for time, and he would wait patiently. Several times, I rested my head on the sofa and fell asleep unconsciously.
Although she was angry with him, she was still worried that he would catch a cold, so she couldn't help but come out and cover him with a coat.
She cursed herself in her heart, Xia Ling, you are hopeless. It would be better if you just let him freeze to death, and you can return to Li Lei without any scruples! However, while scolding, I still went to take care of him.
Pei Ziheng was a very light sleeper, and would often wake up when he noticed any movement, and when he saw her, he would smile tenderly.
Xia Ling was afraid that he would not sleep well and was worried about the child in her belly, so she later stopped recording in the studio until very late.
The child is now three months old, and her lower abdomen is not very visible yet. It is still flat and cannot be seen even if she wears close-fitting clothes. She was a little worried, would the child be too thin? Pei Ziheng said that her worries were unfounded, and comforted her by saying that it was normal for a two-month-old child to not show signs of pregnancy.
She smiled bitterly, fearing that he would find out the month of the baby, and did not dare to go for pregnancy tests too frequently, so she could only keep these worries in her heart. Even though Zhou's mother comforted her, saying that the timing of showing pregnancy varies from person to person, and some women's belly won't swell until they are four or five months old - but Xia Ling was still worried.
Pei Ziheng was afraid that she would suffer from prenatal depression, so he took time to take her out to play, choosing various tourist attractions and activities that she liked to participate in in her previous life. He said, "Xiao Ling, you need to relax more." Xia Ling was also worried that her emotions would have a negative impact on the fetus, so she cooperated with Pei Ziheng to go out for a walk.
This day, they went to a cruise party.
The party was of a very high standard, and the invitees were all celebrities in the business circle and bigwigs from all walks of life.
Even among such a group of wealthy businessmen, Pei Ziheng is still outstanding and is the focus of everyone's attention. He was wearing a suit and leather tie, and had an extraordinary demeanor. He accompanied Xia Ling to the cafeteria to eat a few snacks, and was surrounded by people chatting. Xia Ling was impatient to socialize, so she withdrew unobtrusively and went to the deck outside to breathe fresh air.
The stars in the sea at night are shining and the sea breeze is blowing, which is intoxicating.
On the deck, a pair of men and women were talking and laughing, wearing fragrant clothes and shadows on their temples. I don’t know if they were sincere or just making fun of themselves.
She stood in an inconspicuous dark place for a while. Suddenly, she heard someone shouting: "Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling!"
Strange, how come anyone here knows her? She looked back and saw that it was Jin Yifei, wearing a fancy silk shirt and holding a sparkling cocktail in his hand, standing behind her with a smile.
He seemed very happy to see Xia Ling, leaning side by side on the railing with her, "I really didn't expect to see you here. Who did you come with?"
"Pei Ziheng." She had nothing to hide. As an ordinary female star, she couldn't attend a party of this size. She took a look at Pei Ziheng's invitation letter. The invitee must have a net worth of at least one billion, including US dollars. She didn't have that much money to think about with her toes, so she could only be brought into the scene by someone.
Hearing what she said, he was a little surprised: "Okay, Pei Ziheng rarely brings people with him." Then he smiled again, "But it's no wonder, you are pregnant with his baby now, and your status is naturally different. Who are you taking?"
Xia Ling just smiled politely.
