Chapter 542 Who Is the Outsider?
Li Lei watched her movements from a distance.
Even in the deep and unstoppable sadness, she looked so beautiful, sprinkled the blessing soil evenly and thinly, and the tears fell drop by drop.
The staff came forward to seal the coffin.
She half knelt before the child's grave and refused to leave.
"Xiaoling, get up." Pei Ziheng supported her body, half-holding and half-dragging her away from the edge of the grave. She struggled and wanted to go up to see the child again, tears streaming down her face. Pei Ziheng's hands increased strength, and he hugged her tightly into his arms. Amidst her choking, he watched the coffin lid shut expressionlessly.
The tomb was sealed and a tombstone was erected.
The words "Pei Shaohui's Tomb" stand out.
Xia Ling cried even more sadly, her heart was broken. Her child passed away forever before she had time to grow up, and she didn't even have time to meet her biological father. "Let me go and let me see him." She said, trying to pounce forward.
Pei Ziheng's hand strength did not relax at all, and his voice was very gentle, "He is dead, you have to accept the reality."
She also knew that he was dead and would never come back again. The bright smiling face of the little baby before his death appeared before her eyes again, thinking about it now, she was full of sadness. She cried so weakly that she even forgot to continue struggling.
Under the pine tree in the distance, Li Lei turned and walked outside.
He didn't want to see them cuddling together so closely, like a real family, a body of common destiny. When he didn't know Xiaoling's past life, he originally thought that Pei Ziheng was the third party, but his fate turned out to be so ironic. It turned out that the real third party was himself.
Outside the cemetery, the sky was still gloomy and desolate.
His off-road vehicle was parked across the street from Pei Ziheng's Rolls Royce. On the other side of the street, Pei Ziheng's bodyguard and driver were dressed in black uniforms with solemn expressions. Here, his driver and two bodyguards were smoking.
Li Lei's temperament is free, and he rarely goes out with much fanfare. However, he knew Pei Ziheng well, and knew that every time Pei Ziheng travels, he is full of ostentation, so he also brought a driver and bodyguard, just not wanting to be compared by the other party in front of the woman he loves.
However, it was still compared.
He frowned at the drivers and bodyguards who were smoking and chatting about gambling: "Look at those people across from them, can't you give me some face?"
"Ah? Oh." The bodyguards didn't expect him to say that. They glanced at the opposite side belatedly, and saw that his uniform was full of imposing manner. Even if the master was not there, he did not slack in his standing posture.
They felt that they were a little casual, so they stood up hard.
In less than a second, he was discouraged again: "It's not a guard of honor. Is it uncomfortable to stand so straight? Boss, please spare us. Don't look at them standing beautifully. If that's the case, I can beat ten of them."
"Yes, yes." Other bodyguards agreed.
They were all the most elite mercenaries and mafia masters, killing people like hemp, coming and going in the hail of bullets, they retired to become bodyguards out of loyalty to Li Lei, each of them has a shocking ability. And what about Pei Ziheng's bodyguard? At first glance, they were trained by a professional bodyguard company. Good-looking is good-looking, and they also have excellent professionalism, but the blood they have seen in their entire lives may not be as much as these people have seen in a day.
"If we really get into a fight, I'll take down one of them with three moves." A bodyguard smiled maliciously at the other side.
The bodyguards over there saw him, but their faces were expressionless and they treated him like nothing.
"Tch, it's so boring." He cursed.
"What's the matter?" the driver couldn't see, and said, "Boss means, we are not as handsome as him, and we don't look as cool as him. Do you understand how cool you are? Miss Ye doesn't know how to fight and kill. Killing, in the eyes of this little girl, of course the arrangements over there are neat and beautiful. Can you earn some face for the boss?"
Only then did the bodyguards suddenly realize what they were doing. They said a meaningful "Oh——" and looked at the driver on the opposite side, and then at their own driver who was teaching everyone a lesson. "He's wearing white gloves."
"My car was washed very clean."
"And you?"
Their driver, wearing a half-new jacket, leaned crookedly on the somewhat weathered off-road vehicle, with a cigarette in his mouth.
driver:"……"
He smoked his cigarette silently.
"Bring it here." A hand stretched out from the side, and it turned out to be Li Lei.
"What?" The driver froze.
Li Lei didn't say anything, but took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out and lit it. He has given up on himself. Whatever, how can these guys who are used to being casual pretend to be the cold and elite person opposite? It's better to keep smoking and do whatever you want. Anyway, if there is a fight, the other side will definitely suffer.
"Hey boss... these are fake cigarettes I bought at a nearby grocery store for ten yuan a pack!" the driver said hurriedly.
Li Lei didn't care so much, he took a deep puff, the spicy feeling burned all the way into his lungs, and the dull pain in his heart eased. He threw the cigarette case back to the driver and said, "Please go back and smoke it." He raised his head and blew out a long puff of smoke.
The driver and several bodyguards looked at each other and saw that their boss was in a bad mood. They carefully took a few steps away before starting to smoke and chat again.
"Is Miss Ye okay in there?" A bodyguard glanced at Li Lei and asked in a low voice.
"What can happen?" Another bodyguard said, if anything happened, our boss would have led us in long ago.
"It's just that it's nothing to worry about," the other said, looking across, "Miss Ye won't be abducted by those little white faces across from me again."
"No way," the driver said, "I've only been back for a few days, and it's not like our boss doesn't even have this charm."
"Tsk, tsk, it's hard for me to tell. Since the boss met Miss Ye, his skills in flirting with girls have simply declined. It's hard to say whether he can succeed or not."
"It makes sense. Look at Pei Ziheng. He has a straight suit and looks like a dog. With that body, he must have practiced real kung fu. He may not be as good at fighting as the boss. If they really want to fight, the boss may not be able to beat him."
"Yes, yes, we still have to rely on our help."
"Without us helping him with bodyguards on the opposite side, he would definitely lose."
A group of people became more and more excited as they talked.
"Hey -" Li Lei picked up a pebble and flicked it on the shoulder of a bodyguard, "Do you think I'm dead?" These guys don't know how to stay away when they say bad things?
"Boss, we are helping you..."
Li Lei easily picked up another stone.
"Boss, we were wrong, don't fight, don't fight!" A group of people hugged their heads and ran away.
Xia Ling cried so hard in front of her baby's grave that her whole body became weak and her steps were sloppy. She was protected by Pei Ziheng and walked out step by step with difficulty. What she saw was the chaotic scene outside.
Next to the off-road vehicle, which was full of vicissitudes of life, a group of people were making some noise and seemed very happy.
Her steps paused slightly.
Li Lei was about to hit a bodyguard with the stone in his hand when he suddenly saw Xia Ling's figure accompanied by Pei Ziheng at the exit of the cemetery. She was still wearing the plain white shirt she had worn when she went out in the morning. It was stained with dust, and her eyes were red and swollen from crying. Pei Ziheng's tall figure in a black suit made her even thinner. She could only reach his shoulders, but they looked so well matched, like a couple in need.
The sounds of the bodyguards' fights faded away in his ears, and everything around him became the background.
Li Lei unknowingly stood up straight, with only her figure in his eyes.
