Chapter 542: who is an outsider
Chapter 542 Who is the outsider?
Li Lei watched her movements from a distance.
Even in the deep and uncontrollable sadness, she looked so beautiful. She spread the blessing soil carefully and evenly, and her tears fell drop by drop.
Staff stepped forward to seal the coffin.
She half-knelt in front of the child's grave and refused to leave.
"Xiao Ling, get up." Pei Ziheng supported her body and dragged her away from the edge of the tomb, half hugging and half dragging her. She struggled, wanting to step forward to see the child again, and tears fell one after another. Pei Ziheng increased his strength in his hands and held her firmly into his arms. He watched the coffin lid close expressionlessly as she choked.
The tomb was sealed and the tombstone erected.
The words "Pei Shaohui's Tomb" stand out clearly.
Xia Ling cried even more sadly, her heart broken. Her child passed away forever before she had time to grow up, and she didn't even have time to meet her biological father. "Let me go and let me see him." She said while trying to rush forward.
Pei Ziheng's hand did not relax at all, and his voice was very gentle, "He is dead, you have to accept the reality."
She also knew that he was dead and would never come back. The bright smiling face of the little baby before his death reappeared in front of her eyes. Thinking about it now, she was full of sadness. She cried so hard that her body became weak and she even forgot to continue struggling.
Under the pine trees in the distance, Li Lei turned around and walked out.
He didn’t want to see them cuddling together so closely, like a real family with a common destiny. When he didn't know about Xiao Ling's past life, he originally thought that Pei Ziheng was the third party. Unexpectedly, fate turned out to be such an irony. It turned out that the real third party was himself.
Outside the cemetery, the sky was still gloomy and desolate.
His SUV was parked across the street from Pei Ziheng's Rolls-Royce. On the other side of the street, Pei Ziheng's bodyguard and driver were dressed in black uniforms and looked solemn. Here, his driver and two bodyguards were smoking.
Li Lei has a free-spirited temperament and rarely makes a big fuss when he goes out. However, he knew Pei Ziheng well and knew that Pei Ziheng always traveled with great pomp, so he also brought a driver and bodyguard, just because he didn't want to be outdone in front of the woman he loved.
However, he was still compared.
He frowned and looked at the drivers and bodyguards who were smoking cigarettes and chatting about gambling: "Look at those people opposite me, can't you earn some face for me?"
"Huh? Oh." The bodyguards didn't expect him to say this. They glanced across the way and saw that the man's uniform was straight and impressive. Even if the owner was not there, his posture did not relax at all.
They felt that they were a little casual and stood up hard.
He was discouraged again in less than a second: "It's not an honor guard. Is it uncomfortable to stand so straight? Boss, please spare us. Don't look at them standing beautifully. I can beat ten of them each."
“That’s right, that’s right.” Other bodyguards agreed.
They were all once the most elite mercenaries and masters of the underworld. They killed people like crazy, and came and went in a hail of bullets. They only retired as bodyguards out of loyalty to Li Lei. Each of them had an astonishing ability. And what about Pei Ziheng's bodyguard? At first glance, they are trained by a professional bodyguard company. They are good-looking and have excellent professionalism. However, the blood they have seen in a lifetime may not be as much as these people have seen in a day.
"If we really get into a fight, I'll take down one of them with three moves." A bodyguard smiled maliciously at the other side.
The bodyguards over there saw him, but their faces were expressionless and they treated him like nothing.
“Tch, that’s boring.” He cursed.
"It's not interesting," the driver couldn't see it anymore and said, "What the boss means is that we are not as handsome as others, and we don't look as cool as others. Do you understand how cool we are? Miss Ye doesn't know anything about fighting and killing. Damn it, in the eyes of this little girl, of course the scene there is neat and beautiful, can you earn some face for the boss?"
The bodyguards suddenly realized what was going on. They let out a meaningful "Oh—" and looked at the driver on the opposite side, and then at their own driver who was teaching everyone a lesson. "He's wearing white gloves."
“My car was washed very clean.”
"And you?"
Their driver was wearing a half-new jacket, leaning crookedly on an old-looking off-road vehicle, with a cigarette in his mouth. driver:"…"
Puffed out the cigarette silently.
“Bring it.” A hand stretched out from the side, and it turned out to be Li Lei.
“What?” The driver was stunned.
Li Lei didn't say anything. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out and lit it. He has given up on himself. Whatever, how can these guys who are used to being casual pretend to be the cold and elite person opposite? It's better to keep smoking and do whatever you want. Anyway, if there is a fight, the other side will definitely suffer.
"Hey boss... these are fake cigarettes I bought at a nearby grocery store for ten yuan a pack!" the driver said hurriedly.
Li Lei didn't care about that, he took a deep puff, the spicy feeling burned all the way into his lungs, and the dull pain in his heart eased. He threw the cigarette case back to the driver and said, "Go back and smoke it." He raised his head and blew out a long puff of smoke.
The driver and several bodyguards looked at each other, and they all saw that their boss was in a bad mood, so they carefully took a few steps away before starting to smoke and chat again.
"Is Miss Ye okay in there?" A bodyguard glanced at Li Lei and asked in a low voice.
"What can happen?" Another bodyguard said, if anything happened, our boss would have led us in.
“It’s only when there’s nothing to worry about,” the other one said, looking across the street, “Ms. Ye won’t be kidnapped by those pretty boys across the street again.”
“No way,” the driver said, “I’ve only been back for a few days, and it’s not like our boss doesn’t even have this charm.”
“Tsk tsk, I think it’s hard to tell. Since the boss met Miss Ye, his skills in flirting with girls have simply declined. It’s hard to say whether he can succeed or not.”
"That makes sense. Look at Pei Ziheng. He looks like a human in a straight suit. With his body, he must have practiced real kung fu. He may not be as good at fighting as the boss. If they really want to fight, the boss may not be able to beat him."
“Even so, we still have to rely on our help.”
"Without us helping him fight the opponent's bodyguards, he would definitely lose."
The group of people became more and more excited as they talked.
"Hey-" Li Lei picked up a pebble and flicked it on the shoulder of a bodyguard, "Do you think I'm dead?" These guys don't know how to stay away when they say bad things?
“Boss, we are here to help you…”
Li Lei picked up another stone.
“Boss, we were wrong, don’t fight, don’t fight!” A group of people scurried away holding their heads.
Xia Ling cried so hard in front of her baby's grave that her whole body became weak and her steps were shaky. She was protected by Pei Ziheng and walked out step by step with difficulty. What she saw was the chaotic scene outside.
Beside the off-road vehicle that was full of vicissitudes of life, a group of people were making some noise and seemed very happy.
Her steps paused slightly.
Li Lei was about to hit a bodyguard with the stone in his hand when he suddenly saw Xia Ling's figure accompanied by Pei Ziheng at the exit of the cemetery. She was still wearing the plain white shirt she had worn when she went out in the morning. It was stained with dust, and her eyes were red and swollen from crying. Pei Ziheng's tall figure in a black suit made her even thinner. She could only reach his shoulders, but they looked so well matched, like a couple in need.
The sound of the bodyguards’ fights faded away in my ears, and everything around me became the background.
Li Lei unknowingly stood up straight, with only her figure in his eyes.
