Chapter 376: A Keepsake of Li Lei

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xia Ling could not help but think of Li Lei.
Li Lei and Pei Ziheng were two completely different people. Li Lei was an ultimate hedonist. When he did not need to deal with work, he would be insistent on not doing any work and could even be idle for a whole year. However, once there was work, even Xia Ling would not be able to disrupt him. Once, Li Lei was having a video conference and Xia Ling tried to ask him to cut a lemon. He only touched her head and said, “Be good and don’t interrupt me.” After that, he continued to discuss matters with Wei Shaoyin.
Xia Ling was reluctant to leave, so she went to pull, pinch, and hit him.
Even Wei Shaoyin who was in the video conference yelled at her. “Go play somewhere else. Can’t you see that we’re discussing your new song?!”
Xia Ling wanted to cry. She had to cut the lemon herself and accidentally hurt herself.
When the conference was over, Li Lei was heartbroken and swore that he would scold Wei Shaoyin for her. He rushed into the study in a fury and turned the screen on. Before he could start scolding him, he heard Wei Shaoyin say, “Regarding the new song, I have a few publicity plans that need some improvement…”
After that, the two of them started discussing again.
Big Boss Li treated Xia Ling, who was waiting for him to help her vent her anger, like air. Upset, Xia Ling pretended that the remaining lemons were Big Boss Li and stabbed them for a very long time.
Thinking about it now, even those gloomy days in the past were filled with sweetness.
There was a sour feeling in her heart, but she forced herself to conceal those emotions. She said to Pei Ziheng, “I have some personal belongings in the apartment I rented with Luo Luo. I want to take them back.”
Pei Ziheng warmly replied, “Those things aren’t any good. I’ll buy new items if you need them.”
He roughly knew her living standards in this life and was aware that she never really used any of Li Lei’s money. She bought most of the things she had herself. He had also been to the apartment, and the things inside were considered not bad to ordinary people, but to someone like him from an eminent family, they were unimpressive.
Pei Ziheng’s heart hurt for her. She was such a spoiled girl in the past. How could she use such inferior things?
Xia Ling was quiet before saying, “I bought all of them using my own money, so I can’t bear to leave them. There’s also… the blue diamond necklace you gave me.” The last time he visited their apartment, he gave her a necklace as a gift.
Pei Ziheng also remembered that necklace. Seeing that she had not forgotten about it, he was a little stunned.
However, he sort of thought of something. “Only my gift?”
Xia Ling’s voice was very low. “There’s no need to keep the rest.”
Pei Ziheng looked at her for a long time as he wanted to decipher the truth from the lies. She had been with Li Lei for a long time and would definitely have many things that were given to her by that man. Was she really able to give all of them up?
“I’ve even returned the amulet. Why should I keep the rest?” She said, resisting the bitterness in her heart.
Pei Ziheng finally believed her.
“Let Chu Chen accompany you.” He made his decision.
Pei Ziheng was usually busy. The time he spent with Xia Ling at home was set aside by him with some difficulty, and he had no spare time to accompany her to the apartment to collect her things. Chu Chen was his loyal subordinate, and he deeply trusted him to protect and monitor Xia Ling.
Xia Ling knew that she could not resist and had no other opinion.
On the way to the apartment, she did not treat Chu Chen kindly.
Chu Chen also knew that she did not like him, so he did not provoke her. He only quietly followed her and remembered all the things she decided to take with her to report back to Pei Ziheng later.
When she entered the bedroom, she finally could not tolerate it anymore. She said coldly, “Can you step back a little? I need to take some very personal items. It’s not convenient if you follow me.” Men and women had their differences, and Pei Ziheng forgot to consider this when he instructed someone to follow her. If she had some undergarments, it would be awkward if Chu Chen saw them.
Chu Chen stood outside and hesitated for a moment.
“Do you think Pei Ziheng will forgive you if you followed me in?” Xia Ling sneered.
She understood Pei Ziheng too well. He was overly possessive to an extreme extent. Since he regarded her as his own exclusive woman, he would never allow other men to get involved with her, even if it were just seeing a few private items from afar.
Chu Chen also understood Pei Ziheng the same way.
More importantly, he picked her up from Pei Ziheng’s house.
Pei Ziheng had many houses. However, there was only one place that he truly considered his home. It was the place the deceased Diva Xia Ling personally designed and the place he lived with her for more than ten years. After Xia Ling’s death, Pei Ziheng searched for many women who were similar to her and bought them jewelry and luxury houses, but never once brought any of them back to this house. This home was like a sacred place and was not easily blasphemed.
However, now, Ye Xingling lived inside.
Chu Chen did not know what sort of charm this woman had such that she was able to make him so obsessed and in love with her. However, he deeply understood one thing — a woman that had the same position as the Diva Xia Ling in his Boss’ heart was not someone he could afford to provoke.
He suppressed his annoyance and took a few steps back to give her space.
Xia Ling slammed the door shut.
She rummaged through the jewelry box near her bed and soon found a necklace. To be precise, it was a thin chain with a platinum ring. It had an exquisite design, gorgeous structure, and was lustrous. On the inner side of the ring, there were two letters engraved: LY.
That was the abbreviation of her and Li Lei’s surname.
She held the little platinum ring pendant in her hand and placed it near her chest. The recurring anxiety, fear, and helplessness she felt inside suddenly disappeared.
With it, it was as if that man were still by her side giving her support and strength.
She carefully hid the platinum ring near her body and simply packed up a few pieces of clothing. She then rummaged through the closet to dig out the blue diamond necklace from Pei Ziheng before finally opening the bedroom door.
Chu Chen was waiting outside. Seeing that she was out, he sized her up. He was slightly relieved as he did not find anything out of the ordinary.
“Meow…” Suddenly, there was the sound of a cat. Both of them looked down to see a small cat walking out from a corner. It tilted its tail and licked Xia Ling’s ankles.
“Hairball.” Xia Ling knelt down and patted the kitten’s fluffy head lovingly.
“Is that your cat?” Chu Chen asked.
“Yes.” Xia Ling looked at the kitten and remembered that rainy night when Li Lei smiled and said, “If you like it, then take it home.”
However, now, the kitten was there, but the person was missing.
Her eyes were a little misty, and she took a deep breath.
Chu Chen said, “Boss doesn’t really like pets.” Seeing that his boss favored her, he gave her a head’s up. In the past, even when the Diva Xia Ling tried to have a pet cat and repeatedly threw a tantrum in front of his Boss, she was not allowed to keep any cats, and her cat was given to someone else by his Boss.
Not to mention her.
