The Rebirth of a Diva

Episode 64

Tan Ying sat behind the wooden office desk, working on his pile of documents.

Seeing that Xia Ling had entered, he spoke without raising his head. "All the apartments you are looking for, which of them have adequate security measures to keep you safe from Pei Ziheng?"

Xia Ling only understood why she did not approve of all the apartments earlier. So it seemed, the apartment was not a problem, it was the man she had been involved with. Over the past few days, he had tried his best to avoid thinking about it at all as if shrinking into his shell could make him forget that he ever existed. However, in reality, it is very difficult to forget it. . .

Even while singing "Glass Finger Tip," all he imagined was him.

Fingertip stroking glass panel /in cold, misty –

Air /who sings alone –

Unspeakable pain /forbidden. . .

During the trials, Wei Shaoyin was very impressed with his performance, and told him that he never expected him to be able to sing such a sensational lyrical poem – the turbulent and twisting back and forth, which was a whirlwind, unforgettable memories, brought out with the best of detail.

What he didn't know was that he actually threw and turned from night to night.

"Glass Fingertips" might remind him of his problem, so he now hangs up the phone frequently about matters of the heart and is almost caught up in his past, and he's, forget about the actual urgent matter – Pei Ziheng has attempted to kidnap her.

Tan Ying said, "You're Xingling, all these apartments don't make a target."

He's in trouble now if this apartment doesn't make a mark, then most apartments in the city won't be good. What's he supposed to do? His worries brought him to his wildest thoughts, perhaps he could stay in the training camp for ten, twenty years until he spent his youth and his appearance had faded. Maybe then, Pei Ziheng would finally let go.

These thoughts made him even more upset.

Tan Ying looked at his expression, he thought it was a good time to enter. Not in a hurry at all, he said, "If you can't find a way out, I can give you advice."

A glimmer of hope appeared before him, as he looked at him as if he was his savior.

Tan Ying smiled. "You went to Boss' apartment last time, didn't you. He actually has an empty apartment he can rent for you." The Big Boss knew that he was moving out of the dorm, and specifically requested that he move into Boss' apartment next door. Chairman Tan had used devious excuses, so the plan was finally formed.

Xia Ling alerted.

"Chairman Tan, why?" Although his impression of him had increased after their trip to the Southern mountains, it did not imply that he had allowed all the guarding against him – Li Lei had not given up on being with him.

“Because the company has decided to improve your image, there is no way we let you at risk.” Tan Ying explained the situation calmly, even though it was all just a way of convincing him on behalf of the Boss. "Bos heard that you couldn't find a place and knew that Pei Ziheng was a difficult person to deal with, so he offered the place. Since it's under Boss' name, the apartment must be safe."

He paused for a moment before adding, "The place is empty."

But he still felt that Big Boss Li's good intentions were somewhat dubious.

Even so, he had no better choice, the only way he could survive Pei Ziheng was to be near someone as rich and influential as Li Lei. He considered for a moment and confirmed with Tan Ying once again whether there were any additional terms and conditions other than the rent. With Tan Ying's affirmation, she finally agreed.

Tan Ying arranged for him to meet with Li Lei's personal secretary for the signing of the lease agreement.

When they met, Xia Ling realized it was someone she had known all along – Su Tang. Today, Su Tang was wearing a white dress, his loose key hanging on his shoulder as he let out a faint fragrance from his perfume. She looked as graceful and graceful as ever.

Xia Ling shook her hand lightly.

The touch was cold, just like the indecipherable expression in his eyes.

He still disliked Xia Ling, even though Xia Ling did not know why. But she was Li Lei's personal secretary, not hers – her emotions and attitude were irrelevant to Xia Ling.

Bringing that thought, Xia Ling signed the agreement.

Su Tang guided her to look at the apartment.

When they arrived at Li Lei's floor in the private elevator, Su Tang grabbed the key to open the door adjacent to Li Lei's unit.

What was seen was a large space with all the partitions thrown out, leaving four walls and an empty apartment. Su Tang's calm and cold voice echoed. "This unit is always empty and never updated. Since you're going to stay here, you can decide on the furniture and style you want and I'll ask someone to finish it."

Xia Ling did a round in the spacious room. "Since no one lives here, why are all the walls and partitions torn down?"

"Because of the safety issue," Su Tang's voice was still cold and clear. "Young Master's identity is unusual, and it invites ruthless people to attempt to kill him. So, the living quarters should be neat and minimal inhibited." How he wished this girl would be scared after listening to this and withdrawing from the agreement.

But Xia Ling was a little surprised and just nodded her head.

That's it . . Is that all he does?

Su Tang was disappointed, did this girl not know what "killing" meant"! Looking at her petite stature, any assassin could kill her by barely raising a finger! That's not the main point, the point is, all Young Master's apartments and offices around the world are handled in the same way that all partitions are torn down to create space, he said, but none of them were meant to trap anyone. How could this seemingly ordinary girl be an unprecedented exception?

Su Tang felt his chest stiffen at that thought.

Xia Ling was completely unaware of Su Tang's emotions. Given that Li Lei had a triad background, Xia Ling discovered there was nothing strange with him having some enemies who wanted him dead. As for his personal safety? If Big Boss Li dared to stay there, there was nothing he should fear.

He went another round before telling Su Tang. "Bedrooms, kitchens, and restrooms do not need to be too large. In the room where he was facing the sun ..." he pointed, "turning it into a dance studio, the bigger the better. And besides, it will be a sound - test studio, which can hold a lot of equipment .. Yup, that's all. "

Su Tang recorded his request. "No other requests? Say, color scheme, style or type of furniture."

Xia Ling shook her head.

Improvements were nothing new to Xia Ling. When he lived with Pei Ziheng, he spent a full year designing excitement, discussing every detail with interior designers for fear of flaws or imperfections.

As of now, what's the point of having a beautiful home when his entire family is gone?

Su Tang did not investigate further. He locked the door behind them and left.

Now that his accommodation was complete, a weight was lifted off his shoulders as he directed his undivided attention to the recording of "Glass Finger." Wei Shaoyin's standards were extremely high, even he was humiliated. During the break, many employees praised him, mentioning that few managed to complete the recording smoothly and quickly.

Xia Ling had no words. Is this considered a smooth process? Now he finally knew why Wei Shaoyin had never had a steady partner all this time. Who can accept his fussiness?
