Chapter 458: Li Lei’s call
Chapter 458 Li Lei’s Call
It’s all Ye Xingling’s fault.
Su Tang looked at the box of wedding candies decorated with lace and pink hearts, and sincerely wished her and Pei Ziheng a happy marriage, so that they would never bother her young master again.
Perhaps given time, the young master can forget about her.
Accept yourself.
Su Tang thought this way and felt that it was not a bad thing for Ye Xingling and Pei Ziheng to get married.
On the side, the girl at the front desk urged: "Assistant Su, please bring this box of wedding candies to the boss. The pile at the door is too eye-catching." There were many people coming and going near the front desk, and this box of wedding candies had long been attracted. How many people gathered around to watch, and all the gossip in the company depended on it.
The girl at the front desk is very melancholy. She is all stuck here, which affects her work very much.
Su Tang really didn’t want to give it away.
This box of wedding candies is obviously to cause trouble for Li Lei. Whoever gives it to him will be in trouble.
Su Tang frowned and asked, "Where is Tan Ying?" Now, although she has returned to Li Lei, Tan Ying has not been transferred. In other words, there are two special assistants around Li Lei, one of whom is her. One is Tan Ying.
Those who are qualified to hand something to Li Lei are besides her and Tan Ying.
"Tan Special Assistant came into the company just now and saw this box of wedding candies, and then...he said he remembered that he had to fly to Tokyo for something urgent, so he left in a hurry." The girl at the front desk said.
No matter how well-mannered Su Tang was, she was so angry that her face turned black at this moment.
Why fly to Tokyo in an emergency? Tan Ying made it clear that she didn't want to send wedding candies, so she made an excuse to avoid it!
“Assistant Su, you must be in an emergency if you don’t want to come back...” the girl at the front desk asked cautiously.
Su Tang: “…”
She really wanted something urgent to happen, but her wishes didn't come true. Her most urgent thing now was that she had to take a document to Li Lei's office to sign, and she couldn't avoid it no matter what.
She cursed her bad luck in her heart and picked up the box of wedding candies resignedly.
At the moment, she was standing in Li Lei's office, putting the box of wedding candies on the sofa by the window, turning around without leaving a trace, taking out the documents that required Li Lei's signature, and sending them to his desk.
“Master, there is still this document that needs to be signed.”
Li Lei signed a few words and asked Su Tang casually: "What is the express delivery you brought in?"
Su Tang was quiet for a moment and then said, "I don't know if it's wrapped in a big box. Master, please slowly unpack it while I go out first." After that, he quickly exited the office.
Li Lei didn't pay attention and walked directly to the sofa to open the express delivery.
However, after just one glance, his movements stopped.
On the large ornate pink box, there is an eye-catching card, which reads: "Mr. Pei Ziheng and Miss Ye Xingling are celebrating their wedding anniversary. They will be united forever and have a happy marriage for a hundred years."
Li Lei's face was tense, and he looked at those words intently. No wonder Su Tang ran so fast just now, why didn't he know what was delivered? Pei Ziheng…Ye Xingling…
To tie the knot…
The words on the small card were extremely dazzling, and they gradually blurred and disappeared in front of his eyes.
He remembered that a long time ago, she was robbed of her marriage. He led a whole team of people to rescue her. They descended from the sky majestically and carried her to safety in one breath. At that time, she was wearing a white wedding dress and softly agreed to be his girlfriend. He felt that he was the happiest person in the world.
But, what now?
What will be the consequences if he goes to steal the marriage on the day she gets the certificate on Chinese Valentine's Day?
He had known for a long time that she was getting the certificate that day, but he did not try to steal the marriage because he finally understood one thing. The reason why the marriage was successful at that time was not because of how powerful he was, but because she was willing to go with him.
But this time, she won't do it. She has been married to another man forever.
These four words were magnified in front of his eyes, making him breathless. He reached out, fumbled for a lighter, lit the small card, and burned it.
He pressed the phone and called Su Tang to come in.
“Get rid of it.”
He didn't say clearly what it was, but Su Tang knew that he was referring to the box of wedding candies. Su Tang carefully answered yes, hesitated for a moment, and then persuaded: "Master, you will find someone more worthy of love."
Li Lei gave her a cold look.
He rarely looked at people with such fierce eyes. Su Tang's heart skipped a beat when he saw it, and he quickly stopped talking, not daring to say anything.
“Get out.” He gave the order to expel the guests.
Su Tang knew that he was in a bad mood and did not dare to stay any longer. He quickly took the large box of wedding candies and went out.
The office door is closed.
Li Lei lay on the sofa for a long time before dialing Pei Ziheng's phone number.
Pei Ziheng was sunbathing with Xia Ling when a pleasant ringtone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Li Lei, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange. More of a warning, why would a loser in love call him? Glancing at Xia Ling beside him, Pei Ziheng stood up and walked far away before answering the call.
"Be nice to her." Li Lei got straight to the point, "Otherwise, I will take her back at any time."
"It's just you?" Pei Ziheng's voice was still gentle and condescending, "She won't leave with you." With that oath, Xiao Ling would only stay by his side.
Li Lei: “You can give it a try.”
Pei Ziheng snorted coldly and hung up the phone. But I couldn't help but feel a little irritated. It felt really bad to have a love rival staring at me. Although he maintained a very high attitude on the phone, he knew very well in his heart who was the real loser - whose flesh and blood Xiao Ling was carrying in her belly. Based on this alone, he was completely defeated.
Victory in front of others is only in front of others.
He put down the phone, turned around, and saw Xia Ling.
Xia Ling followed him at some point. She put a hand on her belly and looked at him with a desolate expression. She heard some of the phone call just now and guessed who was calling... She missed Li Lei so much, the biological father of the child, that she listened eagerly to Pei Ziheng's words and guessed what Li Lei said on the other end of the phone.
She said to the child silently in her heart, baby, that is your biological father...
As far away as the end of the world.
Pei Ziheng's face darkened and he warned her: "Don't eavesdrop on my phone calls in the future."
Xia Ling bit her lip and said nothing, watching Pei Ziheng pass by.
My belly is getting bigger day by day.
She doesn’t go to the Emperor’s Company very much anymore. When she goes there once in a while, when people see her, they all respectfully step aside by the roadside and lower their heads and call her “Madam.” The artists who used to secretly compete with her no longer compete with her. Marrying into a wealthy family is a very obvious dividing line. There is a saying that goes well, when you are far beyond your peers, they will no longer be jealous and can only look up to you.
Xia Ling doesn’t like to be treated like this, as if she is an alien.
However, now that the matter has come to this, what else can be done?
With Pei Ziheng, he returned to the family once.
The elders in the clan don't like her very much, but because she is pregnant, they can't openly embarrass her. On the contrary, they have to be cautious in providing food, which makes them feel very aggrieved. They sincerely wished that she was carrying a daughter, because a despicable person like her was not worthy of giving birth to a son for Pei Ziheng.
