Chapter 688: Unique Arrogance

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xia Ling nodded.

Only Su Tang had such great ability and hatred to plot against her.

Feng Kun gently clasped his fingers and made a low noise at the thick wooden table. “I can help you investigate this matter and collect evidence. As long as there is evidence, Li Lei will discover the truth about this woman and stay far away from her.” Love was a zero-sum game. You either lost or won. There was no in-between.

What Feng Kun wanted to do was to help Xia Ling win.

However, Xia Ling said, “No need.”

Feng Kun slightly raised his eyebrows in surprise. Why did Xiao Ling change her mind? If this happened in the past, no matter who provoked her, she would insist on getting even for the smallest grievance, especially when it came to love rivals.

“Is there something else?” He asked.

Xia Ling smiled bitterly. This man was very smart. Based on one sentence from her, he was able to guess the truth. She nodded. “That’s right.” Besides her, no one in the outside world knew what price Su Tang paid to save Li Lei’s life. Even if a man’s heart was made of stone, he would be moved if a woman like her was willing to sacrifice so much for him. Xia Ling guessed that Li Lei had been suffocated with guilt for very long, and she did not wish to use these filthy things to force him to hate Su Tang. That would be too cruel.

She lowered her head. “The situation involving Su Tang is already giving him enough trouble.”

Feng Kun laughed and shook his head. “If I haven’t remembered correctly, you haven’t reconciled with him yet but you’re already speaking for him? Xiao Ling, when did you become like the Virgin Mary?”

“As if!” She glared at him. However, she felt disheartened and smiled bitterly again. “Ok, you can’t think that I’ve become like the Virgin Mary.” She leaned back to look at the beautiful white lines on the ceiling. “However, I have my pride. I don’t want to choose him because another woman is worse than me. What I want is for his final choice to be me even though there are thousands of excellent women in this world.”

As she spoke, a smile appeared on her face. “Let Su Tang keep her ‘excellence.’”

Feng Kun was slightly shocked and changed his perspective of this petite girl. After these turbulent years, not only did her spirit not wear out, she became even prouder.

He remembered that in her past life, many people said that Xia Ling was not very special and only benefited from being Pei Ziheng’s lover. They all thought that any other girl that was taken care of by a rich man like Pei Ziheng would be able to become like Xia Ling.

However, this was not the case.

She was the most unique person in the world. Even when she fell from the stage, broke every bone in her body and had to start again from nothing, she never lost the pride in her bones.

She was different from birth.

Feng Kun lifted his cup of tea. “To you.”

Xia Ling smiled and lifted her glass of lemon water to lightly clink her glass his with his cup. Old friends were old friends. No words had to be said.

The two of them chatted for some time before Lin Yunan called, sounding somewhat tired. “You troublemaker, how is it that you’re involved in a scandal again? Phoenix Down Corporation’s front door is blocked by reporters. Don’t come over for a few days. Ok, tell me. What have you done this time?”

Xia Ling felt a little guilty. She told him that she was discovered by chance when she was buying clothes for Li Lei, someone took a photo of them hugging at her doorstep, and she suspected that Su Tang had looked for someone to follow her.

On the other end, Lin Yunan said, “Ok, I’ve got it. If any reporters ask you anything, just say that you and Li Lei are ordinary friends and that hug was a courtesy hug between friends. He has just separated from Su Tang. No matter what, you can’t admit that you two are together because you will be criticized as the third party.”

Xia Ling said, “I know that, and we are really not together.”

Only then was Lin Yunan slightly relieved. After a few more instructions, he hung up the phone.

Xia Ling smiled bitterly at the phone. This was really troublesome.

Looking at her, Feng Kun asked, “Are you just going to suffer this grievance?”

Xia Ling turned cold. “I will contract a private investigator. If Su Tang is really trying to sabotage me, even if I don’t do it via Li Lei, I will make her pay the price.”

Sure enough, she still had that revengeful personality trait.

Feng Kun knew that he could not stop her, so he said, “Before you do anything, remember to look for Lin Yunan or me to discuss it first before you make a decision. Don’t be rash.” He did not really trust Xiao Ling. After traveling extensively with Lin Yunan, Su Tang had all sorts of skillful tricks up her sleeve, but besides singing, Xiao Ling was very ignorant about many things.

Xia Ling knew that Feng Kun had good intentions and smiled. “I know. I will be careful.”

When they ended their chat, both of them started to prepare the songs that were going to be recorded later. Once they started talking about work, they became very focused. Unknowingly, the sun had set. When they were done, the night sky was already filled with stars. Feng Kun smiled and asked, “Should we eat together?”

She replied, “No. Shaohui is waiting for me at home.”

A woman with a child was different. She really missed her child, and even though the nanny was there, she was not at ease and had to rush back home to ensure that he fell asleep.

Feng Kun nodded understandingly. He opened the door of the recording studio and sent her out.

However, before she could leave, she met Feng Kun’s assistant outside.

“Mr. Feng and Miss Ye.” The assistant said to them very politely. “Secretary Ouyang made an internal call today to pass on Chairman Pei’s message. Chairman Pei wants Miss Ye to look for him in the chairman’s office when she is done with her job.”

Secretary Ouyang was Pei Ziheng’s chief secretary. Like Chu Chen, he was a confidant.

Xia Ling felt a little strange. “How did Pei Ziheng know that I’m here?”

This time, Feng Kun smiled bitterly. “With your eye-catching Porsche parked in the garage, it won’t be surprising that a nosy person told him.”

Xia Ling thought so too and sighed.

“I will go and take a look.” She said to Feng Kun, “If I don’t visit your Chairman Pei, I’m afraid I won’t be able to leave. It’s nothing personal.” She was half joking and half serious. Pei Ziheng never gave up until he achieved his goal. If she was unwilling to see him, he might really seal up the entire floor and lock her inside until she was willing to see him.

In recent years, she got along with Pei Ziheng pretty well.

However, after the gossip about her and Li Lei, Feng Kun was a little worried. “Do you want me to accompany you?”

“No need.” Xia Ling said, “I’ll be fine.”

Feng Kun stopped insisting and told his assistant to send her there.

Thus, with the accompaniment of his assistant, she arrived at Pei Ziheng’s chairman office.

Everything was still the same as it was years ago.

The black walnut door was dull and heavy.

Feng Kun’s assistant led Xia Ling to the secretary’s desk in front of the door and said to the secretary on duty, “Secretary Li, can you please help me deliver the message that Miss Ye is here?”

Secretary Li smiled and said to them, “Chairman Pei told me that Miss Ye doesn’t need to report when she comes. She can go in directly.”
