The Rebirth of a Diva

The Epispde 69

Li Lei did not even lift his eyelids as he said, “Ah Wei, he has not eaten anything all day. ”

Wei Shaoyin was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, before hesitantly asking, "Our boss, is Xiao Ling really alright?"

Li Lei lightly replied, “What can go wrong? He just woke up and was a little weak. I'll take him for dinner. ”

Wei Shaoyin did not sound convinced and asked Li Lei a few more times if Xia Ling was okay. He even instructed Big Boss Li to take good care of him. Listening to him from the side, Xia Ling felt cold sweat come out on her behalf. Ah Wei, Big Boss Li is your boss! How could you instruct your boss in such an arrogant way to take care of such a small artist? It's a miracle that you haven't been fired in years.

Besides being shocked, Xia Ling also felt very touched by her worries.

Li Lei's expression was normal, answering Wei Shaoyin with "mmhmms" and "ahs" occasionally if needed, not at all upset by Wei Shaoyin's instructions.

Xia Ling was confused. Who are these people at Skyart Entertainment .. if it was at Imperial Entertainment, anyone who dared to talk to Big Boss Pei Ziheng was like how Wei Shaoyin did with Li Lei, he will soon be asked to pack his bags and go home. He could not help but steal a glance at the man on the phone under the warm light in the bedroom. There was a feeling of peace between his eyebrows and warmth in his expression.

He realized at the time that sometimes he felt like someone who was.

However, he immediately shook his head as he tried to throw these thoughts out of his head. Has he not been deceived enough in his past life? These people with money and power can change their promises as they wish and have no power to curb their power. All their promises are lies, and they are not to be confused. He would no longer trust these men in high places with so much power, they were destined to be on a different path from him.

Wei Shaoyin finally concluded the call with Li Lei and reluctantly hung up.

Li Lei hung up the phone and returned the phone to Xia Ling.

“Let's eat. "She smiled when she said to him. “You've heard everything, Ah Wei asked me to take good care of you. ”

Xia Ling had no appetite, and replied, "I'm not hungry. ”

“You still have to eat even if you are not hungry. "He persuaded her gently. "If you don't, your body won't be able to take it. "If there was someone else present, they would be surprised to see the gentleness Li Lei showed. Second Young Master Li was fine with the girls, but he would usually only instruct his subordinates to send gifts, flash his credit cards, pick them up in sports cars, etc. Xia Ling was the only person that Second Young Master Li cared about to persuade patiently and sweetly to eat.

However, Xia Ling still shook her head.

No woman would dare to reject Second Young Master Li to such an extent earlier. However, Li Lei remained patient and calm. “I make delicious shellfish dishes. “His culinary skills are unparalleled, and he decides to try to persuade her with the appeal of food.

Xia Ling was unmoved.

Li Lei did not know how to respond.

He tried the second tactic. “I have a lot of guests at dinner and they are all interesting people. They'll be happy to see you. ”

Xia Ling's decision was still unchanged.

Third tactic listed. “Er Mao will sleep quietly in his room, he will not come out to scare you. ”

Xia Ling's decision was still unchanged.

"Good . "Li Lei gave up. "Good rest, then. I'll come back first. ”

He got up and attentively closed the door behind him for her as she left.

Xia Ling raised her knees to her chest on the bed, hugging herself. At this moment when he was sitting alone, a large bouquet of blue orchids appeared at the forefront of his mind again. The flower petals were scattered all around and the color of the flower petals was dazzling and sinister. He imagined the petals would double and attack his living room, attacking every part of his residence, drowning him and strangling him …

His heart began to beat extremely fast again and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

He could not fight the terrible hallucinations and struggled to crawl down from the bed, randomly pulling the blanket from the bed with him. He came into the sitting room and threw a blanket over a large bouquet of blue orchids from afar.

The sinister bright flowers were covered, and a few scattered petals peered out from under one corner of the blanket.

Xia Ling turned around and returned to the bedroom, pulling another blanket from the bed to cover the corner where she could still be a blue flower. After that, he was still not satisfied. He returned to the bedroom to take all the soft pillows, full of feathers and threw them into the pile one by one, until there was a small mountain of beds on top of the bouquet of blue orchids, and, trap him under completely.

Door bell sounds .

He jumped on the spot and remained rooted in place for a few seconds before he went to open the door.

Outside the door stood Li Lei as well as a blue-eyed, blond-haired Caucasian man.

"Hi salam know . "The Caucasian man started the conversation first. She was tall and wide, with rippling muscles, and had a kind of strong beauty. However, his expression was friendly as he continued, “Call me James, I am Li Lei's friend. It's nice to meet you. ”

Xia Ling frowned. He has no interest in making new friends. He turned to Li Lei with a questioning look.

“James is a guest I invite to dinner. “Li Lei explained with an innocent expression on her face. "He heard that you didn't want to eat and was worried. She insisted on coming to see .. Oh yes, I forgot to mention she's a doctor and really didn't like to see other people damaging their bodies. ”

The doctor?

Xia Ling looked at the Caucasian man named James suspiciously. He looked more expert than Li Lei and it seemed like he was going to be a very dangerous and terrifying fighter. How does he resemble a doctor?

As if reading his thoughts, James laughed peacefully and said, "I'm a doctor with the Wild Wolf mercenaries. I was making a work call nearby and decided to stop by to visit an old friend. ”The tone of his voice was as calm as the warm sun in the autumn, which usually caught others off guard.

However, Xia Ling was not a normal person and remained extremely defensive.

His eyes observed the dinner plates they held in their hands. There are lamb steaks, oysters, clams, porridge, vegetables, and fruit salads. It looks delicious and delicious.

"We're really here just to bring you some food" Li Lei said lightly.

Seeing that they insisted on not leaving, Xia Ling had no choice but to let them in.

The lounge was a mess. James' eyes scanned swiftly towards the mountain of bed sheets and pillows so quickly that Xia Ling did not notice at all. He exchanged glances with Li Lei soon after.

"Is something wrong?" Seeing that Xia Ling had entered the kitchen, Li Lei slowed down his steps and asked James in a low voice.

“That's the position where the blue orchid is located, right? Has he covered them up? ”James lowered his voice as well to ask. The mercenary Wild Wolf is a famous international mercenary army – even if James is only a doctor in the army, the, he is still very professional and can exchange information with others without being noticed at all.

When Li Lei was younger, he had been a part of the Wild Wolf mercenary for a while. At this moment, he spoke to his old team-mates easily. "Yes . ”

“He may have experienced deep pain in the past. ”James speak softly and quickly. “Investigate flowers or who sent them. Do not touch the wound, it may need a professional to treat. ”

Li Lei nodded.

This was the reason he called James – not to deliver dinner, but to find out what was wrong with Xia Ling. She knew something was wrong when she found him lying in bed all day. He was very worried about her.

The two of them finished their quick conversation and entered the kitchen as if nothing had happened.

Xia Ling was in a bad mood and did not realize the slight delay they were doing after chasing her. At this moment, he had already cleaned the table.

“Thank you for sending food. “He politely thanked them. "Put it on the table, I'll eat it. ”

This obviously means that they cannot stay.

The amount of rejection Li Lei had obtained from the women in her life so far was less than what she had received from Xia Ling so far. However, for some reason, she could not make herself angry at him. And while she felt a sense of regret in her heart, on the surface she still showed a happy smile, “Xia Ling, remember to eat while it was still hot. We're gonna go. ”

James remained silent. Stop acting like it's fine, Second Young Master Li.

After sending them away, Xia Ling stared at the delicious food on the table. She has no appetite, but knows she needs to replenish her energy – being an artist takes a huge toll on her physical body. He is always committed to his job, and he needs to eat to have the strength to work.

He finished the food slowly, sip by mouth, before returning to sleep.

At night, he had nightmares. In his nightmare, there are scattered blue orchids, butterflies, handcuffs, cages …

When he woke up, he felt drained.

She washed her face and meticulously put on makeup to cover up her weakness before she went to look for Wei Shaoyin to discuss the promotional video. The schedule of the promotional video was decided very quickly, and when that day arrived, Xia Ling followed the team to the filming location outside the city.

Unfortunately, they realized when they got there that –

Imperial Entertainment has chosen the same venue to shoot their MV. Chu Chen brought Xia Yu there to record the MV for his new song.
