The Rebirth of a Diva

Episode 15's

Xia Ling screamed and rushed back to the corner. It was not until the shadow in the dark crashed into something, emitting a loud clinking sound, that he realized that there was a metal barricade between the huge shadow and him.

The big shadow is the genealogical mastiff.

He had been afraid of dogs ever since he was young, let alone a huge pedigree mastiff like this. Pei Ziheng had bred more than ten similar mastiffs that stood guard around the bungalow to prevent him from escaping. He never thought that they could be used this way either.

He was locked up in a dark room all night with only the sound of a mastiff howling, crashing into a metal barricade, and his deep growling sound and biting attempts to accompany him. He was frightened, berating Pei Ziheng with the most vicious words, and then pleading with him in the most degrading manner. Finally, he felt his voice become hoarse with a shout and lay curled up in a corner of the wall, close to hysteria.

He did not know when Pei Ziheng finally opened the door of the basement.

All he heard was his voice from above, sneering. "Still interested to see what an animal is?"

His trembling lips could not make a sound.

Her feet appeared in front of her face, and she heard him say, "Sorry, tell me that you're wrong and I'll get you out of here."

She could not remember how she had admitted her mistake, but she seemed to remember that she had bowed to carry him and brought him back to the room where they had been. The room was also a prison, with cameras everywhere. There are chains, handcuffs, and security is very tight. However, the natural sunlight in the room and the softness of the bed gave him a sense of security he never had before. He fainted in bed, fell into a deep sleep.

He had a high fever that lasted a week and had constant nightmares. In his nightmares, he sees the face of a mastiff who repeatedly growls at him.

When he recovered, he simply lay gently on Pei Ziheng's arm every night, tolerating every hug and every move forward without a fight. It was as if she was still Xia Ling who loved her wholeheartedly, who worshipped her like a God.

As his memory faded, the water in the bathtub slowly filled up.

Warm water covered Xia Ling's entire body, drenching the open wound on her right shoulder. His vision was completely blurred, tears flooded his eyes, a salty taste on his lips. He gripped the bath towel tightly, rubbing it ferociously on his body, trying to clear the smell of blood and beasts on himself. However, even after his skin was red and sick from all the rubbing, that foul smell remained.

Finally, he threw the towel into the bathtub, curled up and hugged himself tightly.

The sound of running water flowed in his ears, like a soft and sad song. It seems to be said, if only he could go back in time, back to the time when he was 12 years old when the flowers were in full bloom. Back to the time when he could say no to the man's outstretched hand so that everything could end at that glorious moment. . .

If that's the case. . .it will be . . . . best .

Then, when he regained consciousness, he was in bed.

Then, when he regained consciousness, he was in bed.

He opened his eyes to the elaborately designed ceiling, the beautiful and tasteful chandelier and felt a soft blanket of bedding around him. He heard someone yell at him, and then exerted a lot of strength before he could finally hear what— said

"Ye Xingling, do you have a death wish? How do you pass out in the shower? Your wounds are completely submerged in water! If the staff doesn't bring you food and find you lying there, you'll die of blood loss! "

The one who shouted at him was Tan Ying, obviously furious.

Xia Ling took a while to remember how she ended up where she was. He opened his mouth to say something but was stopped by someone by his side. "Miss Ye, you lost a lot of blood. I don't think you can talk right now and just rest."

Only then did he feel the dizziness and heaviness in his head and weakness of his body like he had no strength left. He has lost a lot of blood.

Therefore, he obediently closed his mouth.

Xia Ling looked at him in silence, not saying a word. Although her enormous blood loss came from herself due to fainting in the bathroom, but her injuries had been done by Li Lei's pet. . . It wasn't that he wanted to get hurt, shouldn't Tan Ying blame Li Lei?

But of course, he would not take it with his Boss. So, he could only tolerate.

But of course, he would not take it with his Boss. So, he could only tolerate.

Tan Ying continued, "Given the weight of your injury, you definitely cannot leave now. I've talked to Boss, and he said you can stay here for a while to recuperate. When you're better you can find yourself back at the training camp. "He paused and added," The boss will also spend some time here to recover as well. You better stay and not wander around too much. Don't bother him. "

He understands her perfectly. The first half of what he said was not important, it was this last line – for him not to disturb Big Boss – that was the main thing he wanted to emphasize.

He didn't need to worry, he didn't plan to wander around even without her saying so. The leopard was still out there, not like he wanted to risk getting into trouble again.

Xia Ling nodded obediently. Tan Ying gave his approval and continued to say, "Also, regarding what happened today, don't ask too much about it. When you return to the training camp, later, make sure you keep Mom on about what's going on as well. Be understood? "

He understands . It is the underworld. They must have secrets.

Now that he thought about it, not everyone in the entertainment circle knew about Li Lei's background. Xia Ling knew very little about her relationship with the famous Li family because she had accidentally heard Pei Ziheng talk about it. Pei Ziheng also said that Skyart Entertainment is really humble and does not show off who their supporters are. If it wasn't for the fact that he was deliberately digging up information, he wouldn't have known either.

Therefore, with his current identity as a small and normal trainee, it was expected that he would not know anything either. It was no wonder that Tan Ying had to remind him not to run his mouth. Any normal person who has seen what he has will definitely think it is abnormal.

Xia Ling looked at Tan Ying and spoke with great difficulty. "Don't worry, I don't have much curiosity."

Tan Ying smiled wickedly. "It's okay if you have curiosity too. There's always a way to make sure you can never talk."

Xia Ling looked at Tan Ying and spoke with great difficulty. "Don't worry, I don't have much curiosity."

Tan Ying smiled wickedly. "It's okay if you have curiosity too. There's always a way to make sure you can never talk."

Threat, this is without a doubt a threat.

Xia Ling frowned, exasperatedly possessing her voice. "Mr Tan, don't worry, I'm not ready to die yet." He fell silent before saying, "I'm tired and want to rest. I think you should go."

Tan Ying narrowed his eyes as he looked at her. After a while, he said, "You Xingling, I find myself increasingly unable to read you. Should I say that you are not wise or just stupid? But, this is better than doing something stupid to guarantee your life's loss." he clapped and stood up. "I'll go, then. If you find any problems, you can call me. Also, if you need something while you're here, you can also look for the staff in that place."

Xia Ling watched as she left. Before leaving, he attentively closed the door behind him.

The room calmed down and he dimmed the lights, falling into a deep sleep under the blanket.

His recovery days begin. Because they were on the mountain, the days were quiet, with an atmosphere of peace and relaxation that dazzled. Every morning, Xia Ling would boil some flower tea and sit reading on the balcony of the second-floor living room. Sometimes, he was just daydreaming, letting his messy mind be relaxed from all the worrying days.

Li Lei never showed up. Actually, other than the staff who came to clean and send her food, Xia Ling only saw one other person – mountain villa guards, who brought her a large bouquet of Hibiscus Mutabilis at Li Lei's offer. They are the type of flowers that can change color depending on the time of day. In the morning it is unpretentious but classy white, turning into vibrant red in the afternoon. Soft and charming, pleasing to the eye.

The nanny said that this was an apology from Boss for his injuries.
