The Rebirth of a Diva

Episode 65's

The recording of the song was completed and the filming of the MV was also completed.

Xia Ling managed to finish these two parts with great difficulty, and it was now Wei Shaoyin's turn to do the polishing from the backend. He kindly gave her a few days off.

She received a message from Su Tang telling her that the renovation work of her apartment had been completed and she could now move out.

Therefore, she packed her luggage and some boxes of her luggage to officially move into her new apartment. The girls in the same dorm room as him offered to help her, but she was worried about letting them know that she was living next to Big Boss Li, thus rejecting their offer. Fortunately, Li Lei had asked Su Tang to send some movers to pick him up and the move was completed smoothly.

Xia Ling pushed open the door of her apartment when she arrived.

The sight before his eyes stunned him for a moment. The entrance area was lined with white tiles, and a small man-made waterfall mountain stood at the end of a small street decorated with green moss, forming a kind of curtain from the living room. Turning around the corner, the living room is forest-themed, with a creamy soft sofa with several pillows filled with fur thrown carelessly on it. On a beautifully designed coffee table, there was a set of celadon tea with a pattern of ice cracks.

The floor is made of wood and stone, with transparent glass. Under the glass was a small, narrow stream with colorful rocks and plenty of vibrant swimming fish. Following the flow of this small glass will take him to the balcony. There were many tall plants on the balcony, swaying in the wind and scrambling for his attention. Sunlight shone through the cracks of the leaves, making the place feel beautiful and peaceful.

Under the shade of the plant, there was a bamboo deck chair. At this moment, someone was lying lazily on the deck chair, with a lazy leopard who was also staring at the fish swimming under the glass stream.

It was Li Lei and Er Mao.

Xia Ling had always been afraid of Er Mao and stopped where she saw him. He called Li Lei, "Boss."

He didn't ask why he showed up here. He is the owner and also the Big Boss. Even if he had trespassed in his residence, no one would bother to question whether this was appropriate.

Some of the workers who helped her move also secretly took their leave.

Li Lei smiled peacefully at him, his dark green eyes forming a line under the sun. His well-proportioned, muscular body lay gracefully and comfortably on the deck chair, looking as lazy and harmless as a big cat squatting on his feet. However, he had seen Er Mao kill someone before, so of course he also considered the owner a dangerous creature.

"The lemon tea is delicious today. Would you like a glass?" He asked with a pleased tone.

“No, thank you.” He remained in the same place, noticing that Er Mao had raised his head.

As she met Er Mao's eyes, Xia Ling felt all the hairs on her body stand up, her breathing stopped and did not dare to move. Er Mao's eyes, which looked like precious amber stones, looked at him up and down for a while, not shifting as rapidly as usual. He looked at her carefully, as if he was recalling every detail of her by heart.

This made him feel very scared.

"That's enough, Er Mao, don't scare our tenants." After a while, Li Lei's attractive voice floated up, "Xiao Ling, don't be nervous. He's just trying to remember how you look."

Remember how he looked?

Xia Ling could not understand this. This was not the first time Er Mao had seen him, why was he. . . ?

Li Lei reached out his hand to rub the soft fur on the back of Er Mao's neck while continuing, "He not only needs to remember your appearance and breath, but also your body shape, voice, every action, he said, and even the details of each of your expressions .. In the future you will be our neighbor, so he needs to distinguish you from other unwelcome guests. "

He remembered what Su Tang said about the killer and nodded, fully understanding what he meant.

His nervousness slightly disappeared with his explanation.

Li Lei stood up from the deck chair and walked around Er Mao towards him, "Follow me, I'll give you a tour of your new home."

This isn't his house. The place he called home was no longer there when Pei Ziheng raised his hand to hit him and he fell to the floor. This apartment, despite being large and luxurious, was simply a cold house to him.

He followed behind her out of the living room with a confused feeling. This apartment has just been renovated, and they have signed a contract. Why would Big Boss Li have to bother going down personally to show it around the house? However, he found the reason soon after –

As she takes him around to familiarize herself with the surroundings, she explains the security system in the house. In many inconspicuous places, there are small but deadly traps. If he was not careful, there was a chance that he would be killed.

He walked restlessly all the way.

Why did he feel like this place was not an apartment, but a huge trap?

In contrast to his caution, Li Lei was clearly used to all these layers of protection, and walked confidently as if they were taking a night walk. He used his deep and interesting voice to explain, "This security system blueprint was randomly selected from over ten blueprints and even the designer had no idea which one we decided to use in the end. All the traps are installed separately. , with several different installer groups. In other words, other than you and me, no third person knows all the traps set here. You don't have to worry about your safety. "

He nodded, feeling more secure. With this watertight security system, it wasn't easy for Pei Ziheng to break it unless he suddenly decided to fight with Li Lei, ignoring all the excuses and costs.

At least he'll be safe here.

"Thank you, boss," he said.

This was the umpteenth time he had thanked her since they met. Xia Ling knew that with the meager amount she paid for rent, it was likely not enough to cover even half a square foot of this place. Nevertheless, he generously agreed for her to stay here. Regardless of his motives, the consideration he showed her was enough for him to feel deep gratitude.

Li Lei laughed happily.

He took her on a tour of the bedrooms, bathrooms and workspaces, and then to see the lounge area and kitchen.

"These two rooms are a little different from the others." He said, "In addition to the small tools installed, there are also security cameras installed here. There is 24 hours of surveillance, which is connected to a private security office with guards. If anything is wrong, there will be an immediate response to deal with it. "

He showed her camouflaged cameras around the room.

His expression immediately darkened.

Step by step, she walked backwards until she was beside the bedroom, where the camera could not reach. With one hand tightly holding the door frame and her voice shaking, she said, "Boss, please."

Li Lei's gaze darkened, and he asked, "Why?"

He avoided giving an answer, but took a step back, "Please .. let go, let go of everything."

Li Lei walked towards him slowly, and said, "Xiao Ling, this is a necessary precaution."

His voice slowly shook, "I .. I don't need it."

Now he was right in front of her, looking at her and saying, "You should give me an excuse."

He shook his head, unable to speak.

Some scars can never be talked about, and there is pain that will stay with him for life. Regardless of when they were urged, the wounds were excruciating.

He closed his eyes as his memories floated back into the past, as if he had returned to Pei Ziheng's large bungalow. In the empty bedroom, he was curled up on the bare ground, a golden chain on his ankle. From all sides and from all angles, he could see the cold camera lens, reflecting inorganic light rays. . .
