Chapter 496 Bring Him Back
Xia Ling turned her head to look at her. Why was this Su Tang always at odds with her?
"Is this your home?" she asked Su Tang.
Su Tang didn't expect her to ask this question. He was slightly startled and cleverly avoided the topic: "Mrs. Pei, what we are talking about now is your business."
"Who wants to tell you about me?" Xia Ling's voice was light but not mincing words at all. "Who are you?"
Su Tang could only cry when he met an opponent like her. They don't pay attention to the subtle elegance between women at all, and they don't have the consciousness that girls should have when they fight with each other - shouldn't girls always have something to say and hide their wits? Why is it so straightforward? You are so straightforward, how should the other party respond?
Have you considered the other person's feelings?
Su Tang held it in his heart for a long time, his chest felt tight.
She has been elegant all her life and is used to playing word games. If Xia Ling tries to talk words with her, she will definitely not be her opponent. But I didn't expect that they were so simple and crude.
Su Tang secretly gritted his teeth, hating this girl who acted unconventionally, and reluctantly replied: "I am Tianyi's special assistant. As a person from a rival company, if you try to enter Tianyi, of course I will Tube."
If Li Lei wasn't here, her words would be quite righteous.
Unfortunately, Li Lei is also there.
Before Xia Ling could say anything, Li Lei had already frowned: "Su Tang, why did I ask you to follow me to care about these trivial matters?" Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the boss was looking towards Xia Ling.
But Xia Ling was not happy: "Don't speak, let me speak."
"I'm helping you." The boss felt aggrieved.
Xia Ling glared at him: "Who asked for your help? When a woman quarrels, a man should not interrupt. Haven't you heard?"
Li Lei: "..." Well, is he flattering the horse? Why did he forget that his Xiao Ling is a picky person and will definitely fight in person when there is a quarrel? He didn't know that Xia Ling was really not in the mood for a fight today. When Li Lei was not around, she just turned around and left because she didn't want to confront Su Tang head-on.
Right now, there's a reason to stand up.
She didn't want to watch him quarrel with his subordinates and lose his price in public. What kind of noble status does he have to have trouble with Su Tang? It's enough for her to take action.
Xia Ling looked at Su Tang with a pair of clear eyes: "Yes, you are just a special assistant, and this is not your home. At best, you are just a steward of Li Lei's family property. As a steward, what qualifications do you have to treat the master Are you pointing fingers?"
"What kind of master are you?" Su Tang said this quietly through gritted teeth. Nothing else mattered. The words "Master" made her heart ache like blood. This woman was obviously a married woman, so why was she still occupying her young master? Still consider yourself the master?
Unexpectedly, Xia Ling just said: "I didn't say I was the master. Li Lei is the master, right? He wants to bring someone in, let alone me. Even if it's some cat or dog, it's not your turn. Stop it? Or do you Tianyi people have the habit of climbing on top of your master’s house to dominate?”
The last words were very serious. In front of Li Lei, Su Tang could only lower his head: "How is that possible?"
"Then you have nothing to do with this matter." Xia Ling raised a smile on her lips, looked at her with some pride, stretched out her hand to hold Li Lei's hand, "Let's go."
Li Lei looked at her lovingly, and when he saw her smiling contentedly like a little fox that had stolen something, his mood suddenly improved. "Let's go." He led her through the crowd and onto the elevator like a general returning in triumph.
Su Tang was left alone, his face turning blue and white.
Arrived at the office.
"Why did you bring her back as a special assistant again?" Xia Ling complained and nestled into the soft sofa next to the bed.
Li Lei poured her a glass of water, and his voice was low and magnetic: "Are you tired? Come and drink some water. I was too busy fighting against the Emperor a while ago and was short of manpower, so I asked her to come back." Besides, she was not with him. Around him, the old man in the family is worried, always saying that there is no one who knows how to be cold and hot.
The old man is getting older, and Li Lei doesn't want to see him worrying about him.
Xia Ling took the water from him. Even though they had been away for a year, he still knew what she liked to drink, half a slice of lemon and honey, the perfect ratio. She took a satisfied sip and squinted her eyes slightly to savor the taste, just like a docile and comfortable cat under the sun.
Li Lei looked at her tenderly.
Xia Ling thought about it for a while before continuing to complain: "I don't like her." It was a complaint, but it sounded a bit coquettish.
Li Lei smiled indulgently: "Okay, if you don't like it, I will transfer her away tomorrow."
Xia Ling opened her eyes and looked at him: "Really?"
"I lied to you that I was a puppy." He half-knelt and half-lyed by the sofa, holding his chin up and looking at her.
"You were originally a puppy." Xia Ling reached out and ruffled his short hair. The feeling was very comfortable, just like in her memory. I missed it so much that I rubbed it more.
"You bullied me as soon as you came back." Classmate Li Xiaolei felt wronged again.
"I'll bully you, I'll bully you." Xia Ling finished stroking his short hair and then pulled his cheek, "What's the matter with just bullying you? I've been bullied for a year, and I'm not allowed to ask for anything. Interest?"
He looked into her eyes with a smile, but the smile disappeared.
"Xiao Ling." His voice was dark.
"Um?"
He reached out and grabbed her cold little hand, holding it in his palm. "How did you get along with...that man this year? How did you become so thin?"
Her expression also darkened.
After being silent for a long time, he said as lightly as possible: "Actually, it's not as bad as you think. He didn't treat me badly in terms of food and clothing. It's just that... I was pregnant with a child, and I suffered a lot during delivery and confinement. A little bitter."
This was the first time he heard her mention the child in person.
"I saw it on the news," his voice was a little dry, because she had a child with another man, and his heart hurt as if a piece of her heart had been cut out: "His name is... Shaohui, right?" Without mentioning the last name, he said, "What a good name."
A gentle smile appeared on Xia Ling's lips, "He is a good boy."
He smiled, but tears flowed down his cheeks.
"Xiao Ling, what's wrong with you?" Li Lei was a little flustered, "Do you miss your child? Did Pei Ziheng let you go, but didn't let you leave with your child?"
He held her in his arms and comforted her hurriedly.
She just cried silently at first, but gradually she started to cry out with choked sobs.
Li Lei became more and more nervous: "Be good, don't cry, don't cry... If you really miss the child..." He paused for a long time and then said, "Let's take him over. I'll go negotiate with Pei Ziheng and ask him Let him go, okay? Don't worry, I will take good care of the baby with you, just like my own."
