A Star Reborn: The Queen’s Return

Chapter 135 Impulse Is the Devil

Xia Ling's footsteps stopped.

So that girl knew Li Lei? I don’t know what their relationship is, but they seem so close.

Xia Ling's eyes fell on the girl holding Li Lei's hand, and she narrowed her eyes slightly. Very well, her real girlfriend is here, and Yingying Yanyan is circling around him, as if she was dead. Is it okay?

She casually took a glass of wine from the passing waiter's tray and walked towards them with elegant steps.

"...Brother Lei, when are you going to my house to play? Last time the lilacs you gave me bloomed, and I asked someone to build a small pavilion for viewing flowers. When you go next time, we can be together in it Let's drink tea and enjoy the flowers." The girl raised her face and looked at Li Lei with admiration. She was so close that her plump breasts almost touched his body.

Even a fool could tell that she was interested in Li Lei, but Li Lei just let it happen and refused to dodge.

The anger in Xia Ling's heart came up in a flash, and the red wine in her hand almost splashed at the girl, but she still had a sliver of reason and restrained herself. This is Pei Ziheng's territory, she doesn't want to make any troubles, she doesn't want to make troubles... She said "impulsion is the devil" several times in her heart, and she finally calmed down.

She walked forward as if nothing had happened and stood next to Li Lei.

"Xiao Ling," Li Lei turned his head to see her, showing a warm smile, "You came just in time, let me introduce you, this is Gu Lin, the eldest lady of the Gu family chaebol, the grandpa Gu you saw last time. My granddaughter."

It's such a pity that she is the eldest daughter of the Gu family's chaebol... Xia Ling thought, Mr. Gu seems wise and wise, how could he raise such a shameless granddaughter who has no education or manners at all?

Li Lei introduced to Gu Lin again: "This is Ye Xingling."

Realizing the order in which Li Lei introduced the two of them, Gu Lin's expression changed slightly. Generally speaking, in such social occasions, the low-status ones are introduced to the high-status ones first, and the light ones are introduced to the high ones first. Li Lei will not understand this principle. However, he chose to introduce her to Ye Xingling first...

It is obvious that her identity as Gu Lin is more noble!

So, does this mean that in brother Lei's heart, the girl named "Ye Xingling" carries more weight?

The instinct of a woman made Gu Lin suddenly vigilant. She looked Xia Ling up and down, and found that this was the girl she knocked down not long ago, and she immediately became even more disgusted. "Ye Xingling?" she asked in an arrogant and critical tone, "I think I've heard of you. Are you a little star in Brother Lei's company?"

She deliberately emphasized the word "small".

"I've never heard of you." Xia Ling said calmly, even more arrogant and arrogant than her.

Just because she couldn't throw red wine at someone on the spot didn't mean that she couldn't fight with someone on the spot. She didn't intend to swallow her anger in an area where there wasn't much movement. When it comes to fighting, how many people in the circle are her opponents? Thinking back to the time when she worked her way up from the orphanage, and after entering the Pei family, she fought with those so-called famous people who were above their heads for many years, not to mention the bad things in the entertainment industry where they had secret fights every three days and a big fight every five days. He has no other skills, and his words will definitely make people angry to death.

Sure enough, Gu Lin was so angry that she said, "You, you!" She stamped her foot and shook Li Lei's arm vigorously, "Brother Lei, she bullied me!" She and Li Lei had known each other since childhood and had a crush on him. Over the years, I have known that he likes pure and innocent girls, so I have become very skilled at pretending to be stupid and infatuated.

The Li family and the Gu family are family friends.

For the sake of Mr. Gu, Li Lei couldn't do anything to Gu Lin.

Like a big brother, he reluctantly gave in to his sister: "You are so old, how can you say that you should bully or not? You and Xiao Ling are not in the same circle. It is normal for her not to know you."

Not a circle?

Gu Lin glanced at Xia Ling triumphantly: "Yes, it's hard enough for a little star like you. In addition to work, you just try to please this person and that person, and squeeze in all kinds of cocktail parties and dinners. Ah, try your best to gather connections. How can you possibly know a young lady like me? Haha, I don’t know the same as you."

The conscience of heaven and earth, Li Lei didn't mean that.

However, this statement is indeed ambiguous and misleading.

When he was chatting with Gu Lin just now, Gu Lin held his arm affectionately. Just as he was about to pull it out, he accidentally caught a glimpse of Xia Ling walking towards him. Among the people passing by under the crystal chandelier, Xia Ling was elegantly holding a glass of red wine with a calm expression. She clearly saw the hand holding his arm, but seemed to turn a blind eye.

Isn't she nervous about him?

Li Lei felt very heavy, and after a second thought, he made the decision to test it out.

He deliberately manipulated Gu Lin and let Gu Lin hang on to him, and also tacitly allowed her to constantly provoke Xia Ling.

But as for Xia Ling, her only counterattack was directed at the part of her that had offended her dignity, and she turned a blind eye to Gu Lin's hand hanging on his body and her pretending to be intimate.

Xiao Ling, don't you care about me?

He asked silently in his mind, looking at her calmly to get an answer.

Xia Ling's fingers tightened, and she almost couldn't help but throw the glass of red wine over - this time, she didn't want to throw it at Gu Lin alone, but she wanted to throw it at Li Lei as well. Do this pair of dogs and men treat her as if she doesn't exist? No... Gu Lin didn't care. She didn't know her relationship with Li Lei. It was understandable that her love rivals would fight, but what about Li Lei?

He was obviously the one who asked her to date her first, so why did he hook up with someone else in the blink of an eye?

She looked at them, and the thought of not wanting to make trouble and the pride in her bones kept her indifferent. However, there were countless turbulent past events turned upside down in her heart - at the beginning, it was Pei Ziheng who had another woman, and she quarreled and made a scene that turned the world upside down , but ended up in a terrible mess and became a joke to everyone. Now, she finally understands that if a man changes his heart, what's the point of getting rid of his so-called love rival?

She no longer wanted to fight for such a meaningless thing.

Gu Lin was still provoking her: "What's the matter, dumb? Can't speak? Is there anything else you can do? Stay away from us if you have nothing to do. Don't you see that I am talking to Brother Lei?"

Xia Ling's clear eyes were calm, she glanced at Li Lei lightly, turned around and left.

Among the noisy crowd, she had an elegant posture, straight back, and walked away from him without hesitation... At that moment, Li Lei suddenly became terrified, as if once she merged into the crowd, he would never be able to touch her again. .

"Xiao Ling!" He shouted, pulled out the hand held by Gu Lin, and chased after her.

Xia Ling heard his shout, but she didn't stop and walked straight forward. Suddenly, she felt her arm being grasped by a hand that had always been warm and dry. She turned back and glared at him: "Let go!"
