The Rebirth of a Diva

Episode 31

He took a deep breath to give himself strength. Only 10 meters away. Xia Ling, you can do this. Just walking.

As he gave himself a little speech, Wei Shaoyin grew impatient. "You coming or not? Quick, I need to set up a new song for tomorrow."

Pei Ziheng was still staring at him, the tip of his trench coat was quietly fluttering in the wind and snow.

He saw that he was motionless and comforted himself that he could not recognize him in his new face and body. Finally, he strengthened his mind and slowly walked towards the car.

He walked past it.

The bitter smell of cigarette smoke lingered on his body, not dissipating even in the chaotic weather.

Close enough to touch, he said in a low voice, "You …"

He stumbled a little and started shaking uncontrollably. At this moment, all kinds of thoughts were flowing in his mind and he could barely control his tears from falling.

However, all he did was speed up his pace and walk away, as if he was running away from her.

When he got into Wei Shaoyin's car, he was still in a daze. His hands were shaking and it took several attempts to tie his seat belt. He raised his head and looked forward, where he saw Pei Ziheng still standing with one hand on the car door, seemingly unaware of the blistering snow beating his body.

Wei Shaoyin started his car.

He drove away long before suddenly asking, "You know Pei Ziheng?"

Xia Ling did not respond.

The warmth inside the car made it seem like spring, and soft music played in the background. His cold and stiff body regained that sensation. When he was relaxed, all he felt was fatigue.

Wei Shaoyin's clean and white hands held the wheel and his gaze was still firmly on the road, he said, "The view he gave you now looks like you owe him a few hundred million dollars."

He laughed bitterly and finally found the strength to retaliate. "Do you think I can afford to owe him that much?"

Wei Shaoyin laughed as well, saying, "That's right, you've been in a fidget because it owes our company only a few million dollars. If you really owe Pei Ziheng a few hundred million, you have to jump off a building."

He wished he owed Pei Ziheng a few hundred million dollars. It would be easier, and it would end his misery. But what is this situation now? Even death could not expel the man from his world. What should he do to forget it completely?

Wei Shaoyin lowered the volume of the music but continued to press. "So, do you or don't know him?"

"Mrs. Wei," She closed her eyes and said softly, "Ye Xingling is just an insignificant little trainee at Skyart Entertainment. How can I know the big boss of Imperial Entertainment?"

"I told you to call me Ah Wei, why don't you listen?" Wei Shaoyin complained. Seeing that he did not react, he said, "That's what I thought too. But the gaze he gave you ..it doesn't look that simple."

"The boss is all crazy" he said coldly. "Who knows what they're thinking?"

Wei Shaoyin glanced at him, sensitive to his tone of voice. "Which boss in our company offended you?"

He had to admit that his instincts were flawlessly accurate.

He turned to stare out of the car window and sadly said, "Nothing."

He turned to stare out of the car window and sadly said, "Nothing."

He couldn't possibly tell her that Li Lei wanted to pay her to sleep with him.

He felt a little headache. What is all this junk? When he remembered Li Lei telling him that he would wait for him to change his mind, his mood became even worse. In this life, he only wanted peace and quiet. He wanted nothing to do with and was unable to take care of these important people.

In the following days, Xia Ling was in a depressed state.

Wei Shaoyin's recording studio was very busy, but Xia Ling's mind was busy and she made some mistakes. Wei Shaoyin gave him a little thought and he almost had to pack his bags and return to the training camp.

On this day, he managed to end the job early with great difficulty and walked home alone.

It was a sunny winter day with a few hikers. Small shops along the street play the most popular songs of the season.

When he turned the corner, a majestic-looking Audi stopped in front of him. Xia Ling raised her head and saw someone wearing a long black trench coat get out of the car and take off her sunglasses – Hurhur, a familiar face. It was Chu Chen.

He stopped and silently looked at her.

"Yes, I know you. Chu Chen from Imperial Entertainment. We met that day at a year-end music show" she said lightly and did not receive her business card.

He was not angry and naturally pulled his outstretched hand like it was not awkward at all. He looked at her, and voiced out the voice she used in the business negotiations, "Are we going to find a place to chat? Imperial Entertainment has prepared a small present for you."

Oh, so the bribe that Wei Shaoyin had given them to give them had arrived.

He turned around and looked around quickly. Pointing to a random cafe along the way, he said, "Let's talk there."

He turned around and looked around quickly. Pointing to a random cafe along the way, he said, "Let's talk there."

Chu Chen nodded and followed him to the cafe.

There were very few people in the cafe. Xia Ling took a seat by the window and sat down. A servant came to ask if they needed anything. Chu Chen ordered Blue Mountain coffee and Xia Ling said, "Warm water, thank you."

Chu Chen looked at him closely.

"You look a lot like someone I've known before" he suddenly said.

Xia Ling gave a start but did not show it outwardly. "Oh?" He's responding.

“He is equally indifferent to others, likes to sit by the window in cafes, and has a habit of drinking warm water.” Chu Chen's voice actually contained a hint of longing and sadness.

He let out a cold laugh, saying, "I believe Manager strong Chu is not looking for me today to tell you old memories?"

He looked like he was being pierced by his sharp words, and his face darkened as he looked at him a few more seconds. He laughed coldly and said, "Searching for you to tell me old memories? Ye Xingling, you think too much of yourself. Someone like you can't even dream compared to a fraction of it."

It was really her good behavior that prevented her from splashing a glass of water on him.

In this life, he was much more tolerant. If it was Xia Ling from before, to hear someone betray her and push her into a world of despair say this, she would definitely make sure that she lost everything –

He betrayed her first. What right does it have to tell old memories? Hypocrites.

Xia Ling gripped tightly onto the glass in her hand before letting go again. He controlled his burning anger and said, "Just go ahead."

Chu Chen pushed the paper towards her and said, "You have a sister named Ye Xingfei who has been staying in the hospital for a long time, right? I've contacted your parents to transfer him to the best hospital in the state. Special care ward. All expenses will be covered by Imperial Entertainment. "

I've contacted your parents to transfer him to the best hospital in the state. Special care ward. All expenses will be covered by Imperial Entertainment. "

He was stunned and looked at the paper.

That's a notice informing the hospital transfer. Her parents' signature is on black-and-white paper.

Xia Ling said, "Nobody told me about this."

Chu Chen crossed his fingers on the table. "I told them to keep it a secret. It was meant to be a surprise to you today," she explained.

Be surprised? Shock is a better word for it.

He really knew about Feifei's condition and the doctor told him that there was a chance he would never wake up again. This meant that he would stay in the hospital for life in a vegetative state. Feifei was young, so there were still decades for him to live. Hospital fees are long-term and burning cash will not stop after a few days. . . It's a black hole.

This is a big and problematic expense that will last a long time.

Would Imperial Entertainment be so generous just to keep Wei Shaoyin quiet because of their publicity stunt?

And handle everything first, without his knowledge at all?

Xia Ling's first thought was to move Feifei back to the original hospital where he was. Although his condition was not that good, but he used the money he borrowed from Skyart Entertainment to maintain his expenses, giving him a free conscience. However, Feifei and she are – half-sisters they share the same father but a different mother. Her stepmother disliked her and only loved her own daughter, Feifei. There was no way his stepmother would agree to move Feifei back to the original hospital after this significant increase.

He felt a sense of unease crawl his heart. He took a sip of water and slowly asked, "Is this what you want to tell me?"

Chu Chen laughed. "You're very smart."

As he spoke, he pushed another item across the table. It was a well-wrapped rectangular box and looked like it was expensive.
