Chapter 650: This Is Li Rui

Time flies.

Unknowingly, Li Lei left the country for four years.

Sometimes, Xia Ling would wonder if her encounter with that man was a dream. When she woke up, everything disappeared without a trace. She was already used to him not being around. In the morning, she practiced her songs, ate bread and milk prepared by the nanny in the dining area, and went to record songs or finish jobs. After that, she would return home to sleep.

It was a simple and cyclical life.

As a result, even though the media expected her to reunite with Pei Ziheng, they gave up trying to keep up with her private life. The lives of her and Pei Ziheng were too dull. Pei Ziheng was always in meetings. Sometimes, he would take time out to visit her and pick her up, but besides that, there was no further development.

They became the most unromantic “couple” in history.

Even the word “couple” should not be used to describe them because Xia Ling stated on various occasions that Pei Ziheng and her were just friends. Unfortunately, it was useless because the entertainment industry was always filled with speculation, and with Pei Ziheng secretly dropping hints, their relationship was still left to speculation.

Xia Ling did not really care about the people who had different opinions.

Now that she was single, there was no reason why she could not be entangled with another man.

She would just acknowledge the grey areas and move on.

It was just during the end of spring or start of summer, she would go to S City’s airport.

The airport in S City was very beautiful. The runway was long and built on top of the sea. Every time a plane took off, it was a breathtaking view.

She always booked a hotel room with a sea view near the airport. She would sit alone on the coastal beach, listen to the flowing waves, and look at the endless stream of planes. Four years ago, she waited for Li Lei here painfully for a week. However, now, he still had not appeared.

Xia Ling did not know why she was still waiting here.

Perhaps it had become a habit just like how Wei Shaoyin had to disinfect his office three times a day. If she did not come here every year, she would lose her appetite.

Looking at the sky, she was deep in thought.

Not far away, the sound of children frolicking could be heard and adults were vaguely calling after them. “Slow down, slow down.” Xia Ling did not think too much about it. This beach was owned by the hotel and only guests were allowed on it. Furthermore, this hotel had a really high rating and membership system. If the person did not have hundreds of millions in net worth, they could not stay here.

There would not be people chasing after celebrities here.

Thus, Xia Ling was very relaxed and continued to look at the sky in a trance.

Until a ball stopped by her feet.

A small boy ran over. He looked about three or four years old in age. His facial features were very deep and he looked like he was mixed blood. He was very clean, and the tailoring and texture of his clothes were very exquisite, so he should be from a rich family. He looked at Xia Ling with a pair of bright eyes and did not speak or move.

Xia Ling always liked children. Seeing that small boy, she gently said to him, “Is this your ball?”

She pointed at the ball at her feet.

Before the boy said anything, she saw a nanny-like woman chase after him. “Young Master, please slow down. Don’t run around. What if you get lost?”

When she saw Xia Ling, she was slightly startled.

Why did this young and elegant girl look so familiar?

Before the nanny could think of where she saw her before, she heard Xia Ling ask, “How old is this child? He’s really cute.” Her voice was immensely beautiful.

As if enchanted, the nanny said, “Thank you for your compliment.” However, she did not answer her question. She was strictly trained to not easily reveal information about the child of the family she worked for.

When she was little, Xia Ling did not grow up in a rich family, so she had not encountered these things before and did not know about these twists and turns. Seeing that the babysitter did not want to talk and the small boy was looking at her, she teased the child. “Little boy, what is your name?”

“Young Master, we should be going. If we don’t go, your mom will become worried.” The nanny urged the child.

That child ignored the nanny and pointed at the ball beside Xia Ling’s feet. “Give me the ball.” He demanded arrogantly. It was obvious that he was pampered from a young age.

Xia Ling did not mind as she was always very tolerant towards children.

She bent down and gently pushed the ball in front of him.

Unexpectedly, that child said, “I told you to give it to me.” After that, he kicked the ball towards Xia Ling and hit her ankle. At once, there was a muddy imprint on her feet.

Xia Ling slightly frowned. She did not think that the child really wanted her to give him the ball personally when he told her to. She could not push or kick the ball. This child looked like he was lacking in manners and was probably spoiled. He was too arrogant and impolite.

However, she did not intend to get into a conflict with a child and did not react.

The nanny apologized to her. “This lady here, I’m really sorry. Young Master is always like that, so please don’t take it to heart. Are you hurt? Can you leave me a contact? I will ask my family to compensate for the medical fees.” Her apology was very skillful. It seemed that this was not the first time she had to settle such a situation.

Xia Ling wanted to laugh. She shook her head and said, “That’s not necessary.”

Just as she was about to leave, that child ordered again. “Give me the ball!”

The nanny quickly said, “I’ll get it. I’ll get it.” She walked toward Xia Ling, picked up the ball and respectfully bent down to hand the ball to the child.

The child pushed the ball away. This time, it harshly hit Xia Ling’s foot. Xia Ling was caught off guard and exclaimed in pain. She lowered her head and saw that a bruise had appeared on her foot. This child was really strong.

“I told you to give the ball to me!” The child was very stubborn.

Although Xia Ling liked children, she was somewhat unhappy now. She slightly raised her eyebrow and was about to leave. On the other hand, the nanny tried to advise the child again. “Young Master, this lady isn’t a servant. You can’t treat her like that. Let me get the ball for you.”

“What’s wrong?” Suddenly, a female voice was heard.

Xia Ling’s heart skipped a beat. She turned around and saw an elegant woman wearing a long light purple dress walking over. Her make up was light, and her carefully managed hair fell to her shoulders. It was actually Su Tang!

It had been too long.

Her heart beat quickly. Why was Su Tang here? Had she returned to China?! If she were here, did it mean that Li Lei was also back?

At once, Xia Ling’s head was filled with complicated thoughts and did not know how to react.

Looking at her, Su Tang was slightly started. She lowered her head to look at the boy and said, “Don’t run as you like. What if you’re bullied by bad people?” Her voice was very cold and stern.

Xia Ling was even more uncomfortable. Who was the bad person she was referring to?

Just as she was deep in thought, Su Tang lifted her head and smiled elegantly at her. “Miss Ye, long time no see. Oh yes, I haven’t introduced him to you. This is Li Rui, my son with Li Lei.”
