Chapter 352: Close Your Eyes

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The next day when Xia Ling woke up, she had two dark-eyed circles and her voice was hoarse.

She swayed as she walked into Wei Shaoyin’s recording studio to record a song and was immediately scolded by him. “With a voice like that, you should quit early and set up a store! Do you know how to sing?! Do you know that you have to take care of your body?! No matter how good your talent is, it will be wasted by you! What did you do last night? Why didn’t you rest well when you knew that you would be recording today?!”

Xia Ling felt wronged. She actually went to bed very early yesterday and should not be blamed for being unable to fall asleep.

In fact, he should be blaming Li Lei. If her heart wasn’t missing him so badly, she probably would have slept easily and wouldn’t have frozen to death and caught a cold after looking for Luo Luo.

However, Wei Shaoyin felt even more wronged. “Which singer is like you and lacks perseverance and continuity so much! Why am I so unlucky to have met you? The album will be released in the spring next year. If you can’t finish recording, you can jump off the top of this building yourself!”

Xia Ling promised that she would complete this task.

She had been preparing for her new album for a long time. In the process, due to several reasons and changes, the album which should have been completed last month was still far from finished, and it looked like it would be dragged to next year. Thousands of fans were still waiting for it insistently as they wished to support Xiao Ling all the way.

Many media representatives praised her for doing her hunger marketing very well.

Who knew that it was just purely because she could not complete it on time.

She entered the studio and recorded again. This time, she chose a song with a lower range which suited her voice which was in a bad state today. The recording was not bad, and her slightly hoarse voice gave the song an amorous feeling.

Wei Shaoyin was only scolding her. After she was done recording, he even gave her a glass of warm honey water and said, “Your health is linked to your voice. You have to maintain it well to do work well.”

Xia Ling was speechless. Was she just a tool in his eyes?

Just like that, she was busy from morning till night for a long while.

On this night after she finished recording, Li Lei drove over to pick her up.

She jumped into the back seat of the Porsche and closed the door. “Go to the ‘Star Entertainment Weekly’ magazine headquarters. I have to do an interview tonight.”

Li Lei started the car and smiled. “I have already rescheduled it. I will bring you to a good place.”

“What? Reschedule?” Xia Ling was shocked and tilted her head to look at him. “What’s going on?”

“Don’t you remember that today is your birthday?” Li Lei smiled.

Birth... Birthday?! Xia Ling reacted as if she were struck by lightning. Recently, she was so busy that she forgot about it. However, which one of her birthdays was it? She thought that it was her birthday in her past life when she was adopted by Pei Ziheng for years, and the memory of it was especially deep. However, something was not right. That was during late spring or early summer.

Ye Xingling’s birthday? That was not right as well. Her birthday in this life was not today.

That meant that...

“The birthday on the amulet?” She asked cautiously.

Big Boss Li nodded and looked at her strangely. “Of course, we have to celebrate your real birthday. There’s no meaning in celebrating your fake birthday. You probably won’t remember which day it is, right?”

Why would she not remember it? She literally did not ask Xia Moyan and was completely unaware of which date he engraved on the amulet. If this was the case, it meant that Li Lei really went to research on the words engraved on the amulet secretly. Sure enough, her brother was right. With how much Li Lei cared about her, he would never let her wear something he did not understand.

She suddenly felt warmth in her heart but said, “Of course, I remember. I only forgot about today because I was too busy. Is that why you want to celebrate my birthday now?”

“That’s right.” Big Boss Li said, maneuvering the steering wheel.

“After rescheduling Star Entertainment Weekly’s interview, will they be unhappy? Lin Yunan will also be unhappy, right?” Xia Ling asked.

“I already changed the date.” Li Lei said. “So what if Lin Yunan is unhappy? You are a female celebrity, understand? You can be a little arrogant sometimes and give people a little trouble. What’s the big deal?”

“It’s a very big deal.” Xia Ling said. In her past life, she used her privileges to make things difficult for people. In the end, she was hated by everyone in the industry and everyone kicked her when she was down.

However, Li Lei was a little curious and turned around to look at her. “Since when did you become so obedient?”

“I have always been this obedient!” Xia Ling glared at him.

Boss Li let out a “just be happy that I’m not going to argue with you” expression. He turned the steering wheel and said, “So, should we go to the magazine headquarters now and have fun after your interview?”

“Don’t!” Xia Ling was very upset. “If you arrange a time with someone and cancel it, they probably already arranged for other activities. If you want to reschedule on the same time again, the other party will kill me.”

“Who taught you these?”

“Huh?”

“You don’t seem like those people who care about social etiquette.”

“Li Lei, what do you mean?!” Xia Ling glared at him again. “Are you saying that I’m stupid?!”

“I didn’t say that.”

“You meant exactly that!”

“I didn’t.”

“You did! How dare you deny it!”

“I really didn’t.”

“You did!”

“Alright, I did...” Big Boss Li compromised.

Unexpectedly, Xia Ling was even more upset. “So you really meant it!” She sobbed. “Li Lei, you said I’m stupid! I’m not going to play with you anymore. Hmph!” She turned her body away, with her back facing him.

Li Lei did not know how to respond.

Why was this child becoming harder to take care of?

“Don’t be angry.” He patiently consoled her. “Lin Yunan already negotiated with the magazine headquarters. After placating the magazine stuff, they even happily sent him out. Nothing bad will happen, so don’t worry.”

Fine, since Lin Yunan was the industry’s top manager, it seemed as if something like that really happened.

“It’s still trouble that you caused!” Xia Ling still glared at him. “Lin Yunan had to deal with all the problems you caused.”

“If you come back to Skyart, I will deal with all your problems.” Big Boss Li smiled.

What sort of person was this? Xia Ling glanced at him, turned up the music in the car, and ignored him.

Li Lei quietly drove for some time.

“Where exactly are we going?” Finally, Xia Ling could not contain her curiosity and asked.

“Guess.” Big Boss Li was beaming.

“Are you going to sell me?” Xia Ling could not be blamed for having this remark as Big Boss Li’s expression was too vicious.

Li Lei was unhappy. “How am I that evil?”

Xia Ling rebuked. “You’re the worst!”

This conversation could not be sustained any longer. Big Boss Li directly said, “We’re almost there. Close your eyes and don’t take a peek. Once we reach the place, I will tell you to open your eyes.”

“I...” Xia Ling looked at her surroundings. There was endless darkness outside the car window, and the street lights were dim. Ever since being imprisoned in her past life in a very dark underground room and enduring vicious torture, she became so afraid of the dark that she needed to sleep with at least one light on in her bedroom every night. Now she had to close her eyes? In a foreign place?

She could vaguely feel that fear and uneasiness were coming back again.
