Rebirth of the entertainment industry and the return of the queen

Chapter 372 Those Women
Zhou's mother was startled, and then realized, she smiled: "You mean those women, why would you bring such a mess home? Don't worry, besides Miss Xia Ling, you are really the only one here."

This is also the reason why Zhou's mother cares about her so much. Last night, the husband explained that he should treat Ms. Ye the same way he treated Ms. Xia Ling before, treating her as the hostess here.

This simple statement made the old maid almost shed tears of joy—since Miss Xia Ling died, her husband has been depressed a lot, like a walking corpse every day, living only in endless regret for Miss Xia Ling and in memory.Mother Zhou has always been very worried, for fear that if things go on like this, something will happen to him. Seeing that he has brought a girl back home and let her take Miss Xia Ling's place, Mother Zhou feels a big stone has fallen to the ground. .She decided that no matter what, she would make good use of them.

Xia Ling nodded. From this point of view, there is really no need to change all the household utensils, otherwise, she would go crazy when she thought about how many women had slept in this room and used the things here.

She doesn't have many clean freaks, but this is definitely one of them.

Zhou's mother urged her: "Miss Ye, hurry up and go downstairs to eat. The millet porridge and thin seaweed shreds specially ordered by my husband will not taste good when they are cold."

Xia Ling also felt hungry, so she simply washed up, changed her clothes, and went downstairs with Zhou Mama to have dinner.

In the dining room, the sun shines in. On the dining table covered with white tablecloths, fine porcelain tableware is used to hold the boiled millet porridge, as well as thin kelp shreds, finely chopped nuts and vegetable salad. It was her favorite taste in her previous life.Even the seating and arrangement are exactly the same as before.

She sat down and suddenly returned to the past.

Zhou's mother waited on her to eat, and kept talking about what a good person Pei Ziheng was, how patient and considerate she was to her, as if she would never give up until she praised him as the unparalleled love saint in heaven and earth.

Xia Ling rubbed her forehead, feeling a little regretful.

I still remember that when she was just adopted by Pei Ziheng, he still practiced not talking when eating or sleeping in his house, and the rules were very strict when eating, everyone was quiet, and needles could be heard.However, Xia Ling has an extremely lively personality, and she grew up in a noisy place like an orphanage, how can she stand it?Always chatting with him while eating, as time goes by, this rule will be abolished, and even Zhou's mother will joke with them.

But now, for the first time, Xia Ling feels that it is definitely a good rule not to eat or sleep, really.

Zhou's mother murmured sentence by sentence: "Sir, he is a good man, patient, and considerate. Which woman is unhappy with him? It's a pity that Miss Xia Ling fell ill at a young age. On the next island, I took her to recuperate for a year, and finally her condition improved, but she passed away unexpectedly. Fortunately, he has brought you back now. For a dedicated person like him, whoever he brings back is with whom For the rest of your life, you should cherish him, he has had a hard time in the past two years..."

Is it not easy to have her?
Xia Ling only felt that her breath was stuck in her heart, stuffy.

Obviously, Pei Ziheng failed her in his previous life, and separated her and Li Lei in this life. How could he become the one who was let down and sympathized by Zhou's mother?

Forget it, the servant doesn't know the truth.On the day she had a falling out with Pei Ziheng, Zhou's mother was not there, so she didn't know how she was imprisoned, let alone how she was bullied and humiliated on the isolated private island.Xia Ling decided not to argue with Zhou Ma, she swallowed her rebuttal, finished the meal as quickly as possible, and said to Zhou Ma: "I didn't sleep well last night, I'll go back to my room to sleep for a while, I won't eat lunch, If you have nothing to do, don't bother me."

Zhou's mother saw that it was almost nine o'clock, and if she went to bed now, it would be too late for lunch, so she said, "Okay, Miss Ye, call me when you wake up in the afternoon, and I will prepare afternoon tea and snacks for you."

Xia Ling thanked her and went upstairs as if fleeing.

Back in the bedroom, not wanting to go to the big bed, curled up on the carpet by the window and fell into a deep sleep.In the dream, it was full of Li Lei, the way he smiled brightly, the way he hugged her like a rascal and acted like a spoiled child, the way people loved and hated him when he bullied her... If you could turn back time, it would be great.

When I woke up, the sun was setting.

Looking at the slowly sinking sunset outside the window, Xia Ling missed him so, so much, and couldn't add it more.

Pei Ziheng came back, had dinner with her, and slept in the study again that night.

Xia Ling's hanging heart finally let go. From the third night onwards, although the door was still locked, she no longer sat all night until dawn, but curled up on the carpet and fell asleep hugging herself.

She couldn't let herself go to that bed, that luxurious and soft big bed, which carried too much happiness and joy and joy of her and Pei Ziheng's previous lives, how many times they had been together, turned upside down, closed their eyes, and couldn't help remembering.However, in this life, her body and mind belong to Li Lei, and she doesn't want to be tainted with the past.

Although the carpet is soft, it is not as comfortable as the bed after all, but she is willing.

After waking up every day, she cleaned herself up, messed up the bed, and created the illusion that she was sleeping on the bed. When Zhou's mother came in to clean up the house, she never noticed anything unusual.

Just a few days passed.

The longing for Li Lei became more and more intense, and there was an excruciating pain in his breathing.

I don't know how he is doing now?Subconsciously, she went to touch the amulet on her neck, but found nothing - only then did she remember that she had already returned the amulet to him.Around her neck, there was only the lavender pearl necklace that Pei Ziheng gave her. Pei Ziheng liked to see her wearing it, so she could only wear it every day.

Even looking for a token of longing, I couldn't find it.

token...?
By the way, there is one more thing.

Xia Ling paced back and forth in the bedroom for several times, and finally mustered up the courage to knock on the door of the study.

"Come in." Pei Ziheng said calmly.Under the soft light of the study room, he was sitting on a high-backed chair, well-dressed, with a mountain of official documents on his desk, and he looked faintly tired.Seeing Xia Ling, his voice was gentle and mellow, "Why are you so out of touch? You used to come in directly and never knock on the door."

In her previous life, she was arrogant and willful, not to mention knocking on the door, she could do such a thing as hugging his neck and sitting on his lap after entering the door.But now, it's a lot stranger.

Xia Ling bit her lower lip lightly, avoiding the topic, and only said, "I have something to do, I want to find you."

"What's the matter?" From the moment she entered the door, he put down the official document in his hand, suspended the ongoing video conference, closed the laptop, and listened to her patiently and gently.
