Chapter 376 Beautiful Doll
In order to control her social circle, Pei Ziheng didn't provide her with a mobile phone, and she could only use her landline at home if she wanted to contact the outside world.She rushed back to her bedroom and dialed Pei Ziheng's number: "Pei Ziheng! Where did you hide my ring pendant?!"

On the other end of the phone, Pei Ziheng's gloomy voice said, "I told you, it's not something you should have. I've given it to Chu Chen and sent him to melt it. If you dare to bring something home, just try it." , Xia Ling, don't be ignorant of the heights of the heavens and the depths of the earth."

She didn't have time to listen to his nonsense, so she hung up the phone all of a sudden, hurriedly looked up the address book, and called Chu Chen again: "Chu Chen! Did Pei Ziheng give you a platinum ring pendant?!"

Chu Chen's voice was very respectful: "Yes."

"Give it back to me!"

"The boss asked me to melt it." Unfortunately, although his voice was respectful, the words he said were not shaken at all, "I am dealing with this matter now, if you want to watch it melt into a puddle of water with your own eyes, you can open the video communication."

"Don't melt it!" Xia Ling was terrified, and turned on the video communication. Sure enough, Chu Chen was standing in front of a machine, watching the operator throw the platinum ring into it, and it melted into a puddle of liquid.

Her heart sank.

Chu Chen looked at her, but smiled kindly: "Miss Ye, if you don't go to the old one, you won't get the new one, isn't it just a few grams of platinum? You are with the boss, do you want anything? Why should you care so much?"

She was sad and angry, her chest heaved and she wanted to tear Chu Chen's hypocritical face.

But she knew she couldn't do it, so she could only turn off the video communication severely, and smashed the phone on the ground to vent her anger.

Gone... that ring is gone.

Her body slid down the wall and sat on the ground with her head buried in her knees.

Just like this, I don't know how long it has passed without moving.

"Miss Ye, why are you squatting here? It's cold on the ground, this..." It was Zhou's mother's voice, persuading her with worry and concern, "Get up quickly, what do you want for lunch? I'll make it for you. You are here now What a look, if Mr. sees it, why don't you feel so distressed?"

Mother Zhou persuaded her for a long time, but Xia Ling remained motionless.

Mother Zhou sighed helplessly and walked away.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of footsteps came again. Someone blocked the light, and her body was shrouded in a huge shadow. "Xiaoling," it was Pei Ziheng, as if the quarrel on the phone earlier had never happened, his voice sounded low and gentle, "Stop losing your temper, go get something to eat with me, you've been in trouble recently Thin."

She made no sound, nor looked at him.

Pei Ziheng squatted down and hugged her into his arms.

She struggled like an electric shock, but she didn't break away. She couldn't help but raised her head and said in a hoarse voice, "Let me go."

Pei Ziheng didn't let go, looking at her expression, he frowned.He finally understood why Zhou's mother was so worried and told him to come back and have a look. It was only a few hours before he left the house in the morning. Like a withered rose, it has lost all vitality, as if it will turn into fly ash with the slightest touch.

He felt very distressed and hugged her more carefully.

"Eat something," he said softly, "I have invited two jewelers to come over tomorrow, and I brought the new season's emerald and agate jewelry, as well as your favorite diamonds. Buy whatever you want."

Seeing that she was still silent, Pei Ziheng simply picked her up and put her back on the bed.

The bed has been tidied up by Zhou's mother, and the duvet has been replaced with a clean and soft duvet, which is tidy and comfortable.Pei Ziheng went to twist a hot towel to wipe her face, and found a plain silk satin dress and put it in front of her: "This dress is newly bought, I remember you like this material and color. Just don't If you know whether it fits or not, try it. After you change it, go downstairs, and I will wait for you to eat downstairs."

He paused, seeing that she was indifferent, and said, "Shall I change it for you?"

Her body trembled, and then she looked up at him, and said in a difficult voice, "I will change it myself."

Satisfied, Pei Ziheng went downstairs to wait for her.

When Xia Ling waited for him to go out, the first thing she did was to get out of bed and lock the door.In fact, since he broke in last night, she knew that the door lock was useless to him, but she still locked the door, more or less seeking some peace of mind.

Unfolding the plain silk satin dress, it was beautiful, and it was indeed her favorite style.

Having been together for more than ten years, Pei Ziheng always knew what she wanted, and would handle everything properly before she asked.She guessed that he must have bought more than one dress like this. She broke into a walk-in closet when she was looking for a platinum ring in the morning. Clothes, shoes and hats are probably prepared for her.

In her previous life, she was grateful for his thoughtfulness.

But now, it just feels terrible.

This place is like a cage, and she is the marionette in the cage. No matter how beautifully or expensively she is dressed up, it is useless, because she cannot resist the will of her master.She can only like what he likes, appreciate what he appreciates, one thing, if he doesn't allow her to keep it, then she has to give it up.

Put on that long dress.

Facing the mirror, she felt that she was a beautiful doll.

Now she can only be a doll.

When she went downstairs and entered the restaurant, she found that there was already a table full of dishes, all of which she loved.Pei Ziheng had already sat down across from her, and was talking on the phone with someone about business matters. Seeing her come in, he chatted a few more words before closing the line.

Xia Ling guessed that he probably came here specially for her.

Pei Ziheng is a very planning person. Even though he is always busy, everything is in order. He will never deal with official business during meals.It's not in keeping with his upbringing.

Then, there is only one explanation, her abnormality this morning disrupted his schedule.

But so what?

Xia Ling was indifferent, it was his sudden appearance that disrupted her entire life.

The delicious food is full of delicious food, and it is difficult to eat it for the wrong person.After Xia Ling ate a few chopsticks, she couldn't eat any more, and put down the bowl without interest.

Pei Ziheng asked warmly, "Are you full?"

She doesn't speak.

"How can I eat so little?" He motioned Zhou Mama to serve her a bowl of soup, "Have some more soup."

She didn't have the strength to argue with him, and obediently picked up the spoon to drink the soup.The old hen stewed Cordyceps soup cooked by Zhou Ma has always been delicious, but now she only takes one sip, and she feels uncomfortable, with bursts of bitterness in her mouth. After swallowing it hard, she can't take another sip.

Pei Ziheng has been paying attention to her, "Not good?"

She shook her head, feeling sick to her stomach, and pushed away the bowls and chopsticks.

Pei Ziheng saw that she was really uncomfortable, so he didn't force it anymore.
