Chapter 176 Quarrel
Another exclamation came from the crowd.
Xia Ling was stunned by this sudden situation, Li Lei, isn't he abroad, when did he come back?
Before he could think about it, Li Lei had already pushed aside all the crowds, walked directly to the elevator door, stretched out his hand, pulled her out of Pei Ziheng's arms, and pulled her into his own. His strength was so strong that Xia Ling staggered and her arm almost broke due to pain. The tip of her nose hit his chest and she groaned.
Li Lei looked at Pei Ziheng coldly: "Don't touch my people."
His gloomy voice made those who heard it shudder, and for a moment, the surroundings fell silent.
In the elevator, Pei Ziheng was still half-kneeling, motionless, maintaining the posture of hugging Xia Ling tightly just now. Hearing Li Lei's words, he turned his head and looked at her who was protected in Li Lei's arms. His eyes were deep and painful, his eyes were slightly red, and there was so much sadness that he could not get rid of.
Xia Ling's heart tightened, and she stared at him intently as if she was possessed.
Li Lei held her hand tightly and turned her around without any further explanation, striding out. She was led by him and stumbled along, walking through the long corridor and underground garage. He threw her into the passenger seat of the modified off-road vehicle and closed the door.
Then, he got into the cab from the other side, started the engine without saying a word, and sped away.
Outside the car window, there is a vast expanse of night scenery, which is full of colors, both illusory and real.
Xia Ling was in a trance, with all the past and present events still echoing in her mind. The name Pei Ziheng was like a curse, lingering, his kindness to her, gentleness and cruelty, happiness and nightmares... Unexpectedly, her tears fell again.
Li Lei caught a glimpse of her crying in the rearview mirror.
Her tears fell silently, drop by drop, as if hot lava was burning his heart.
What is the relationship between her and Pei Ziheng? Why did Pei Ziheng hold her so closely? And why was she crying so fragilely? Li Lei didn't know the reason. He pursed his thin lips tightly into a straight line. He drove the car very fast, running through several red lights on the road. Along the way, drivers kept swerving, honking and yelling, and there were dangers everywhere. However, Xia Ling was unaware of this. She still missed Pei Ziheng's tears in her heart. It turned out that he would really be sad if she died.
that's enough.
She cried, with an ugly smile on her face, and then she covered her face and sobbed uncontrollably.
Li Lei drove the car back downstairs to the apartment, and the security supervisor on duty came up to him and wanted to open the door for them. He didn't unlock the car door.
Xia Ling stopped crying and raised her head with tears in her eyes. Only then did she realize that she had arrived at her residence. She reached out to push the car door, but did not push it open. She turned to look at Li Lei in confusion.
Li Lei said: "You owe me an explanation." He dealt with official duties day and night, just to return to the country to reunite with her as soon as possible. However, when he rushed back from abroad all the way, what he saw was his beloved woman. In another man's arms. Her hand gently grasped the corner of the man's clothes, cautiously, as if she was afraid of breaking the most precious treasure in the world.
At that time, a huge gloom enveloped Li Lei's mind. That situation was definitely not Pei Ziheng's unilateral wishful thinking.
He turned to look at Xia Ling: "What do you like about him? Do you like that he is cruel and rough and keeps women everywhere?!"
Xia Ling's body trembled slightly, she bit her lip and said nothing. What do you like about him? Too much... I like the hand he extended to her when they first met, I like seeing him for the first time every morning when she wakes up, I like him teaching her how to write step by step, and she will always indulge her no matter what outrageous things she does. The appearance... She often dreams back at midnight, these beautiful fragments of the past are intertwined with the terrifying nightmares, becoming the most secret scars buried deep in her heart.
She originally thought that she had let go and could cut off the relationship from her previous life and no longer miss her, but his tears made everything fall apart.
She couldn't control herself from feeling heartache.
Li Lei lifted her chin and kissed her without warning.
She was frightened and struggled subconsciously, but his hands and feet were firmly restrained by him. His kiss became deeper and deeper, regardless of her resistance, as if he wanted to leave his own mark on her body. I don't know how long it took, until both of them were suffocating, he reluctantly let her go.
Xia Ling glared at him angrily.
Li Lei's voice was hoarse: "Ye Xingling, don't forget whose woman you are now. No matter how good my temper is, there is a limit." He could tolerate her small offenses and the cuteness of ignoring authority when acting like a child, but The only thing that couldn't be tolerated was that when she was by his side, she was still thinking about another man. A long time ago, he had faintly noticed that she had someone else in her heart, but he didn't know how heart-wrenching jealousy is until he witnessed her appearance in Pei Ziheng's arms tonight.
"Ye Xingling, you are not allowed to see him again."
He raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, but she pushed him away.
"Are you restricting my freedom?" she asked coldly. This one. The night was too chaotic, she already had a lot of troubles, and she didn't have any extra energy to appease Li Lei, but he pushed forward step by step, putting new shackles on her already overwhelmed body. Not allowed? Did he think she wanted to see Pei Ziheng? Did he ever think about it, if Pei Ziheng was determined to come to her, how could she escape? Just now in the dressing room, when Pei Ziheng forced her and chased her away, where was Li Lei?
Now that things have come to this, you come to accuse her?
She looked at him even more unkindly.
Li Lei was very angry: "You like him that much? Are you stupid? He has found so many women, and each one is just a substitute for the dead queen Xia Ling! Are you very proud that you look like Xia Ling? Ye Xingling, I tell you You, Pei Ziheng doesn't love you at all, all he loves is a dead person!" Over the past few days, Old Man Bao had reported the investigation results to him one after another. He slowly learned a lot about the story of Pei Ziheng and the dead queen Xia Ling.
He wanted to save his beloved woman from being hunted by the devil, but unexpectedly, she was deceived by the devil, and the person he really loved was not her at all!
"Ye Xingling, wake up!"
His words were like steel needles piercing her heart.
There were still tears in the corners of her eyes: "Open the door and let me out of the car."
"Ye Xingling!"
"Put me out of the car!" She shouted loudly and smashed the window glass with all her strength, not wanting to stay even a minute longer. Who does Pei Ziheng love? He was so infatuated with her in his previous life, but he turned a blind eye or even hurt her in this life. Now she is just a substitute for her former self. Even if she is still alive, that love has been declared dead and has completely disappeared. Pei Ziheng didn't love Ye Xingling - this bloody fact was exposed by Li Lei mercilessly.
She was too miserable and tired to think about it.
Li Lei looked at her sadly. She smashed the car window so hard that there were bruises under her white palms. He pursed his lips tightly and silently unlocked the car door. As soon as Xia Ling was free, she got out of the car and ran towards the apartment building without looking back.
Li Lei was left alone in the endless darkness of the night.
