Chapter 905: Looking for Pei Ziheng
Chapter 905 Looking for Pei Ziheng
Xia Ling watched her being taken away by the police.
The room was empty, with only Pei Ziheng, Xia Ling, and Li Lei standing behind Xia Ling.
Pei Ziheng held the back of the sofa with one hand, still maintaining the same look as when the police dragged him away just now, looking at Xia Ling with difficulty, his eyes filled with grief.
It turned out not to be her.
How could I be so obsessed with her that I was so harsh on her in the first place?
If he had believed her when she said "no", or if there hadn't been those beatings, rapes and tortures, wouldn't she have become so angry that she wouldn't have broken the jar and confessed to the appalling crime? ?
So, can they be happy...
His heart clenched into a ball and it was difficult to breathe.
Xia Ling also looked at him. Pei Ziheng seemed to have suddenly aged ten years. His sad expression made her almost unrecognizable to him. Isn't he always very strong? This man would never think that he had done anything wrong. Who could he show this grief-stricken look to?
Bowl…
It was just that I was at a loss at that time.
"Let's go, Xiao Ling." It was Li Lei, who gently took her hand and led her out of the room.
She gave Pei Ziheng one last look and followed Li Lei into the car. After closing the heavy car door, she felt exhausted, as if she had fought a fierce war and her body was hollowed out.
Li Lei asked her, "Are you tired? I'll give you a massage when you go back."
Xia Ling said softly: "No, please send me back to the villa. I want to be alone." After so many years of injustice, the truth was finally revealed, but she couldn't feel the slightest joy, but she understood how big the waves of fate were. It's scary, but fate plays tricks on people. The sister I once cherished turned against her, and the man she once loved became a stranger.
Li Lei did not insist and sent her back to the villa and watched her enter the door.
He understands that she needs some space to be alone. In her abyss-like painful and unpredictable past, he, an outsider, cannot help. Everyone's past can only be faced by everyone in the end.
“I will pick up Shao Hui from the set later,” Li Lei said to her servant. “Shao Hui will be living with me these days and I will take care of her. You should take good care of Miss Ling.”
The servant nodded in agreement.
Li Lei then left.
Xia Ling hugged a feather pillow, curled up her knees, and sat on the bedside. The soft touch of the pillow rubbed against her pale jade cheek. Her watery eyes were half-opened, as if she was thinking about a lot of things, but she seemed to be thinking about nothing at all. The sun is getting darker, the last rays of the sunset are dispersing on the horizon, and the sky is filled with stars.
Ma Zhou from next door came knocking on the door.
A moment later, the maid knocked on Xia Ling's door: "Miss, Mr. Pei's mother Zhou said she wanted to see you."
Ma Zhou? What is she here for? Xia Ling moved, put down the pillow, threw on a coat, and followed her servant to the living room downstairs to meet Zhou's mother.
Zhou's mother rubbed her hands restlessly: "Miss Ling, I know it's presumptuous to disturb you at this time. But Mr. Chu has been out for a whole day and he hasn't come back yet. The phone can't be reached. Mr. Chu and the others can't be contacted either. I'm really worried." Worried. So I want to ask if you know where he went?"
Zhou’s mother remembered that Pei Ziheng said before going out this morning that he was going to see Xia Ling.
Now, Xia Ling has returned early, but where is her husband?
Xia Ling was a little startled: "Isn't he back yet? Maybe he went to a meeting somewhere and forgot the time, and his cell phone was muted." This kind of thing has not happened before. But Zhou's mother said: "Mr.'s secretary has checked the itinerary and there is no meeting today. No one can find where he is. Miss Ling, all I can think of now is you. If even you don't know where he is, I will You can only report it missing after 24 hours, but who knows what will happen after such a long time?”
Ma Zhou is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, sir, please don’t let anything happen to you!
Xia Ling frowned: "Wait a minute, I'll give him a call."
She took out her mobile phone, hesitated for a moment, and pressed a series of numbers. This number is an exclusive number that Pei Ziheng specially opened for her. No one knows it except her.
At the other end of the phone, the ringing sounded for a long time.
Just when Xia Ling was about to give up, someone picked up the phone.
Pei Ziheng's voice was hoarse, as if he was crying: "Xiao Ling, I'm fine."
Hearing that something was wrong with him, she felt anxious and asked anxiously, "Pei Ziheng, what's wrong with you? Where are you now? Everyone is worried about you!"
But Pei Ziheng hung up the phone, and no matter how many calls he made, he couldn't get through.
Zhou’s mother looked at her with worry: “Miss Ling, have you contacted your husband? How is he?”
Xia Ling rubbed her forehead, feeling vaguely uneasy. She knew very well what happened this afternoon. Even now that she had found a new love and was so happy, she couldn't help but need some alone time to resolve the pain of that year, let alone Pei Ziheng? Over the years, he has been trying hard to save it. When he learned that all the broken relationships were caused by himself and was solely to blame, he felt so regretful and despairing.
Xia Ling is also worried that something will happen to him.
She asked Zhou’s mother: “Have you ever looked for her?”
Zhou’s mother told her: “Mr. Chu has already taken people to look for him, but he didn’t find him.”
Xia Ling was even more worried. Although she no longer loved Pei Ziheng, she didn't want anything to happen to him. Instinctively, she wanted to call Li Lei and ask him to find Pei Ziheng's location through the Li family's satellite positioning system, but she pulled back just as she was about to press Li Lei's name.
She called Xia Moyan: "Brother, please help me check the current location of this phone..."
Soon, Xia Moyan sent her the coordinates. It was somewhere on the outskirts of the city, Mansion No. 89, a private residence that Pei Ziheng didn't often use.
Xia Ling knew where it was. She drove through the crowded city and arrived quickly.
The dark red wooden door with a retro texture is mottled, and ivy is entangled with tuberose, which is very quiet. There were two bodyguards standing in front of the door. Xia Ling recognized them as the two who often followed Pei Ziheng.
They stopped Xia Ling: "The boss has given orders not to disturb him even if the sky falls."
Xia Ling said: "Tell him I'm coming."
The bodyguards did not give in: "It's useless even if you come, Miss Ling." Just as Xia Ling recognized them, they also recognized Xia Ling, so their tone was polite, but their attitude was still tough.
Xia Ling was very anxious. No matter what happened in the past, she always had the privilege to see him anytime and anywhere. But what about now? Based on her understanding of Pei Ziheng, she knew very well that he would not take back his privileges to her, so the only possibility was that he did not even want to see her.
She became anxious, rushed to the door and slapped the wooden door with her hands: "Pei Ziheng! Pei Ziheng, open the door!"
