Rebirth of the Entertainment Circle: Return of the Queen

Chapter 38 Fuck the rules of wealthy families

Xia Ling was stunned and cursed. Now she remembered that she was the boss. Who had to give it to her just now?

 Weakly, she said: "Then tell me what to do."

Li Lei turned the car keys in his hand, his beautiful eyes sparkling: "Go to my apartment and spend the night together. I'll ask someone from the training camp to pick you up early tomorrow morning."

 His apartment?

 Unexpectedly, she remembered the last suggestion about keeping him and raised her eyebrows, and frowned.

Li Lei seemed to see what she was thinking, and said, "I told you, I'm not interested in forcing people. With your courage, how dare you provoke Pei Ziheng?" Then he walked forward, "Think it through." Just follow me, or go back by yourself."

Xia Ling looked at his back, Pei Ziheng's gloomy eyes reappeared in her heart, she weighed for a moment, gritted her teeth and followed him.

Li Lei's car is a modified off-road vehicle. In her previous life, Xia Ling was also an experienced driver. She could tell at a glance that it was modified from a Land Rover military version. It had excellent performance, a tough and domineering appearance, and was very impressive on the road.

Everyone in Tianyi seems to like driving by themselves, including Wei Shaoyin and Li Lei.

Xia Ling got into the passenger seat and fastened her seat belt. Li Lei skillfully controlled the steering wheel and drove out of the garage and merged into the busy traffic on the highway. Half an hour later, the off-road vehicle drove into a high-end community that was quiet in the middle of the hustle and bustle. The large green belt was planted with various precious trees, the shade was lush and green, but the crowds were sparse and clean.

Li Lei parked the car in the garage, took Xia Ling and went upstairs from the dedicated direct elevator.

 Entering the door, turning around the entrance hall, you will see a very spacious living room, which opens up about half a floor. The ceiling is five or six meters high from the ground. The entire wall is covered with floor-to-ceiling glass, which allows for transparent light and excellent views. On the fine-grained original wood floor, there is a complete set of modular leather sofas, the most popular design nowadays, with luxurious shapes and elegant lines.

Li Lei casually threw his coat on the sofa and said to her, "Sit down."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and didn't know what he was doing.

Xia Ling looked at the sofa, then walked over to sit down. Suddenly she noticed that on the snow-white blanket spread nearby, there was a leopard lying lazily, covered with gorgeous rose markings, and its limbs stretched out. Spread yourself into a leopard skin.

 She almost stepped on it.

　　Can't help but take a step back and let out a low breath.

The leopard, Ermao, lazily raised his eyelids to look at her, then closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

Xia Ling did not dare to make any more noise. She held her breath and carefully stepped back, then stepped back again, until she ran into a solid embrace. She was caught off guard and almost screamed again, but an arm wrapped around her waist, and from above her head, Li Lei's deep magnetic voice came: "Don't be afraid, it's me."

  She took a deep breath and relaxed.

The heart that was half-dead from being frightened slowly recovered. The first thought that came to mind was that she and this master, Yibao, were absolutely at odds with each other. They must be incompatible with each other, so they were frightened every time they met, without exception.

 Breaking away from his arms, Xia Ling turned around and looked at him: "I'm not going to sit on that sofa. Is there... another room?"

He smiled, his deep eyes flashing: "Aren't you going to have dinner?"

"ah?"

 He turned around and said, "Come and help in the kitchen."

Xia Ling was stunned and followed him into the spacious and bright kitchen, but was frightened again - in the kitchen, Big Boss Li was cooking in a white apron, with a pot in one hand and a spoon in the other, with a professional and skillful posture.

"You...do you usually cook by yourself?" she asked stammering. This fright was definitely bigger than the leopard she almost stepped on just now. Really, he was a big BOSS, and he still had a good background. This hobby?

Looking at his smooth posture, it is obviously not the first time. Li Lei turned a blind eye to her shock and casually threw a tomato over: "Peel the skin off."

Xia Ling subconsciously caught it and looked at the bright red tomato in her hand for a long time. Until he urged her, she woke up as if from a dream and started to peel it clumsily. Although she had lived two lifetimes and had never cooked before, she discovered how difficult it was to peel tomatoes. After struggling for a long time, her hands and body were covered with tomato juice, but she still couldn't peel them properly.

Looking at the pitted tomato in her hand, she seriously doubted, could it be eaten?

"Give it to me after you've peeled it off. It's time to put it in the pot." Li Lei said. After waiting for a while, there was no movement. He turned around and saw Xia Ling's slender figure standing in front of the console, bewildered and grabbing a group of... red objects that could no longer be identified. Even the boss was well-informed. , at this moment, he was also stunned.

“Ye Xingling, are you really a woman?”

 “Master BOSS, it’s really not my fault, it’s my first time.” She said innocently, holding up the tomato.

Li Lei almost wanted to sigh, so he snatched the unknown red object away with his hand, threw it in a parabola accurately, and threw it into the trash can nearby. Then, he resigned himself to taking out another one, started to do it himself, and relied on his own efforts. While peeling the tomatoes, he did not forget to call her: "Go and wash the lettuce in the sink. If it doesn't work well, go to the living room to accompany Er Mao."

After thinking about it, I felt that I was too fierce, so I turned around and bared my teeth at her.

Xia Ling was so frightened by his laughter that she went to the sink to wash the lettuce and gritted her teeth: Huh, isn't it just a matter of raising a ferocious beast? What's so great about it? I've never seen such a fox pretending to be a tiger, oh no, a man pretending to be a leopard. Bastard, what a big bastard! …It wasn’t until the lettuce was torn to pieces that I realized something was wrong.

 “BOSS, that…”

“Ye Xingling, go and accompany Er Mao.”

“…” She swore that she would never come to Li Lei’s apartment again.

Finally having dinner, she had to admit that Big Boss Li’s cooking skills were indeed good. Each dish was as delicious as a professional chef. No, it was even better than the food she had eaten by professional chefs in her two lifetimes combined.

 “BOSS, you really know everything.” She praised sincerely.

Li Lei narrowed his eyes and smiled: "I've been out alone for a long time, and I'm more or less good at cooking."

  She nodded to express her understanding. It could be seen from the way he drove an off-road vehicle that he should be a very independent person and like to do everything by himself. Thinking about it this way, she suddenly felt that it wouldn't be too strange even if he didn't hire a servant.

 Can’t help but wonder, what kind of family brought him up like this?

ˆ and Pei Ziheng...are completely two different people.

Inadvertently, she thought of that man who was as dangerous as the abyss. He abided by the rules and etiquette of an ancient wealthy family, wore expensive silk shirts, woolen coats, and had a group of servants. He looked elegant and impeccable in his manners. With a mellow voice and a gentle tone, he told her calmly: "I need a wife who is well-matched and worthy of the role of the Pei family's mistress."

 Deep in my heart, a tingling pain spreads.

 Fuck it, mom, the rules of a wealthy family.

Xia Ling took a big bite of rice and held back the tears in her eyes.

From an angle that she was unaware of, Li Lei looked at her thoughtfully, his eyes unpredictable.
