The Rebirth of a Diva

The Rebirth of a Diva
Episode 103's



"Promise you, what?" Xia Ling asked unguardedly.


Li Lei's request was quite simple. “Xiao Ling, too much has happened in the past few weeks. You have worked too hard and your throat has just recovered; you need to take the time to recuperate. From today onwards, you will take a leave of absence and resume the task half a month later. ”


Xia Ling was stunned. "This only?"


"What else do you think I'd suggest?"


Xia Ling was silent. Was he even the Boss, why would anyone advise their employees to take time off? "But, my song ..." Since her debut, excluding the theme song "Meteor Wings," she has only recorded one song in total. Wei Shaoyin had been on a rampage for a long time, with many proposals piling up like mountains. If she told him that she was going to leave, she could not promise that Ah Wei would not go crazy.


"Any song can be recorded at any time, but you only have one throat" Li Lei said.


He seems to be caught in a dilemma.


"You also need time to get used to your voice change, don't you?" Li Lei added.


He thought about it and realized that what he said really made sense. Therefore, he did not hesitate anymore and nodded.


From the next day onwards, he began to live his life like a pig, eating and sleeping repeatedly. Li Lei said to let her familiarize herself with her voice, but she quietly locked the door of her study, leaving her to be idle in her house every day, doing nothing but occasional sunbathing.


She is miserable and crybaby when she wants to practice the song secretly, an invited guest himself will appear after a few sentences – Er Mao. The very beautiful leopard still likes to visit and stray in his house from time to time. Ever since it saved him from Pei Ziheng, it had somehow started to see him as his own, inspecting his house freely as if it was an emperor.


Xia Ling did not dare to provoke Uncle Er Mao, so she could only endure her way without protesting.


Every time she started singing, Er Mao would definitely appear beside her, lying face down on the mat with her eyes half closed and guarding her, appearing to be asleep. Initially, Xia Ling thought that it was really taking a nap, but then, she realized everything was as it was. Every time Uncle Er Mao finished listening to his song, Li Lei would come back to nag about taking care of his body, taking care of his throat and not working too hard …


He then realized that this feathered leopard could tell about him.


He was not happy, but there was no room to discuss with Li Lei regarding this matter. “James and other experts have said that your throat has not fully recovered. It wasn't easy to sing 'Meteor Wings' before, you had to sing in moderation. ”


He felt mistreated and replied, “But I was really bored. ”


As a result, Li Lei often went to his house to accompany him when he had time. She thought of everything, she cooked for him, chatted with him and even gave him gifts.


That was when it was his turn to be embarrassed, as he always felt that he owed her a great debt.


"Don't feel ashamed," Li Lei said straightforwardly. “Who asks you not to think, always thinking about work, work, and more work. If it wasn't for me watching you, who knows if you'd actually rest as long as you're gone. ”


He was completely on guard in terms of defending her from others, including slamming the door on Wei Shaoyin's workaholic face.


Wei Shaoyin lamented him on WeChat, saying that his Great Boss was heartless and cold-blooded like a beast, blocking him from visiting his buddy singers. Even in the far distance and the computer screen, he could feel his sadness.


Xia Ling really felt like crying. He and Ah Wei were in the exact same situation. He typed into her through WeChat, Ah Wei, You should be satisfied with your fate. A few days ago when he found out we were discussing a new song behind him, he almost confiscated my phone.


Ah Wei was getting angry. How could he do that? Who do I make money for ?!


Xia Ling typed calmly, Your boss said that even with just a day of not touching music, you will feel uncomfortable. Making money etc, all the reasons.


Xia Ling smiled bitterly and turned off the computer.


He sat on the sofa with both of his legs bent. He clearly understood that since the progress of his work had been delayed, Ah Wei had become more anxious than him. He stated that he would help him to receive the annual Best New Artist Award in front of Sister Mai Na, and the music industry is similar to the one on the battlefield – nothing can be wasted. He had worked endlessly to become his perfect assistant.


Ah Wei …


He looked harsh and fierce, but in reality, he was the best person he could ask for.


Her lips curled gently, sipping her tea while basking lazily. The tea was made from the tea leaves of Old Longjing Gu, each green leaf was beautiful and exquisite, slowly opening inside the cup. A gentle fragrance spread in the air under the continuous sunlight, refreshing his mind.


Xia Ling's mood lightened as the scent spread further.


He became tired and sleepy, but the doorbell suddenly rang.


Xia Ling dragged herself from the sofa reluctantly and opened the door. That is Sister Mai Na. Sister Mai Na still had red bobbed hair and she wore a professional suit of similar color as if she was a hot, blazing fire. It was unknown where it came from, but he seemed to be in a hurry. He stormed into the living room directly, sat down on Xia Ling's chair and downed half a cup of Longjing's tea with a single gulp. He then handed the cup over and said, “Add some water. ”


Xia Ling was cooperative and added water for her without complaining. Just as he lifted the teapot, he said—


"Hey, hey, it's too hot, use a water dispenser. ”


Xia Ling silently looked at the wrinkled tea leaves in the cup, then quietly turned towards the water dispenser. As she looked at Sister Mai Na chugging the drink in a big gulp, Xia Ling pondered over it seriously. Forget it, the tea leaves are for drinking purposes, this should not be considered wasteful .. right? However, it was still better not to tell Li Lei.


When Sister Mai Na drained her water and set her breath, she lay on the sofa satisfied.


Xia Ling sat next to him very carefully and was ready to receive instructions. This woman usually never visits unless she needs something and, once she shows up, there must be something going on.


As expected, he immediately said, "This time, Xia Yu is in deep trouble. ”


Xia Ling looked at him with a confused expression. Previously Xia Yu had just humiliated herself, which was not considered a big deal?


Sister Mai Na glanced at him at a glance and asked, “What kind of expression is that? You haven't watched the news the last few days? ”


"I don't" Xia Ling replied honestly.


Sister Mai Na held her forehead in her hand and said, “Seriously, you won. “Then, he suddenly flipped over and sat up straight. "Xiao Ling, do you remember that Boss has sent people to investigate the truth behind Xia Yu's heart attack earlier?"


"I remember . “Before, she did hear Sister Mai Na mention it.


“He likes to pretend to have a heart attack, right? Boss had already investigated it and got a record of its operation many years ago. He found that his illness had indeed healed and it was impossible to relapse again, ” Sister Mai Na said as she laughed coldly.


“This set of records has been brought by Boss's people, including complete medical records, surgery reports, exhaust summaries, and also many X-ray radiographs. Our internet trolls release and disseminate this information. With concrete evidence, chaos erupted over the past few days. People outside all said that Xia Yu was a liar, pretending to be fragile to gain sympathy and deceive the feelings of her fans. ”


“Yesterday, when he exited the television station after filming the show, his car was destroyed by someone. ”
