Chapter 394 - A Room Kept For Her



Chapter 394: A Room Kept For Her

That was a fingerprint lock. It felt clean and cool.

A red light flashed and a sweet warning tone sounded: [Sorry, your fingerprint is rejected.]

Startled, Xia Ling tried again. [Sorry, your fingerprint is rejected.]

Only then did she remember that she was not that person anymore. In the past, Imperial Entertainment was her home, but now, it was only a gorgeous cage. No matter how big or extravagant it was, it was still cold.

“Miss Ye.” Chu Chen broke her train of thought. “You don’t have permission to enter this lounge. There are other lounges downstairs. If you are tired, I will take you there to sit down.”

“Who is using this lounge now?” Xia Ling asked.

“Nobody.” Chu Chen briefly replied, obviously indicating that he did not want her to ask further questions. “Please come this way. I will take you downstairs.”

Xia Ling looked at that crystal sliding door again one last time before turned around to leave.

“Oh, isn’t this Ye Xingling?” A familiar sweet female voice was heard.

Xia Ling turned around to see Xia Yu. She was still wearing an embroidered shirt with delicate feathers. Paired with her exquisite skin, she looked mesmerizing. Why was she here? Xia Ling doubtfully scanned her surroundings. Only then did she realize that the door of room 1803 beside her was open. Xia Yu’s stylist and assistant were carrying boxes of items out from the room.

“Is the lounge next door yours?” Xia Ling asked.

If she remembered correctly, this floor had the lounges of top singers, and there were only three of them. Only Imperial Entertainment’s most recognized singers were able to have lounges here. Many popular bigshots would kill to have a lounge here. However, Xia Yu, a recording artiste who relied on editing to cover up her vocal effects, actually occupied three rooms?

“Yes.” Xia Yu lifted her chin slightly and looked at her with some ridicule. “You don’t belong on this floor. How about you quickly leave?”

Xia Ling knitted her brows slightly and asked Chu Chen, “Who uses the other room?” Did Imperial Entertainment change its rules? Was this floor was no longer reflective of status or meaningful enough anymore?

However, hearing Xia Yu’s tone, it did not seem like it.

Chu Chen glanced at her. “It belongs to Li Yingchen.”

Oh, it’s her, another Diva singer whom Imperial Entertainment was always willing to cater to. It seemed that the 18th floor was really symbolic. However, Xia Yu’s place here was probably not obtained by her own ability.

“Xia Yu.” Xia Ling finally could not help but advise her. “You shouldn’t take things that don’t belong to you. Some people can put you on a pedestal and can also let you take the fall. When that comes, it will be too late for you to know the pain.”

That was a lesson from her failure and words from her heart.

She did not know why she told Xia Yu that as she had decided long ago not to care about her sister. However, no one understood Pei Ziheng more than her. His love was a mirage. There was a fragile line between Heaven and Hell. She had already paid the price and did not want Xia Yu to share the same fate as her.

However, Xia Yu misunderstood her and thought it was an insult. “Ye Xingling, are you jealous? No wonder you’re mad. There are only three rooms in this lounge area, and they belong to people whom Brother Ziheng cares the most about. I’m sorry, but you don’t have a spot here.”

Xia Ling turned cold. She regretted telling Xia Yu that.

As she did not want to have a meaningless quarrel with her, she lightly frowned. “Make way.”

“Are you going to the lounge downstairs?” Xia Yu tilted her body to let her pass. “Why didn’t you do this earlier? You should also see who room 1801 belongs to. Do you dare disregard it?”

Didn’t Chu Chen say that nobody was using room 1801?

Xia Ling stopped in her tracks, turned around, and asked Xia Yu, “Whose room is that?”

Xia Yu smiled. “Of course, it’s my sister’s.”

“Xia Ling?”

“Who else can it be?” Xia Yu looked over. “Ye Xingling, so what if Brother Ziheng likes you? You will never be able to replace my sister in Brother Ziheng’s heart. My sister is irreplaceable. Even if she is dead, this room will always be hers. As for you, a living person, you can only go downstairs, a place of lower status.”

Perhaps there were few people present, or she was trying to “defend” her sister. Xia Yu did not restrain herself as usual or put on a weak façade. Instead, she appeared rather aggressive.

However, she was still aware of her limits.

Since her rebirth, Xia Ling always thought about who Pei Ziheng truly loved. Was it only the bright and beautiful Xia Ling, the dream-like butterfly he raised? Or the person she truly was? If not, how could he violate her so terribly without knowing who she was and be so cold? He only started to spoil her more after knowing that she was actually Xia Ling.

He left a lot of things for Xia Ling: the original untouched house, the photo wall, and the lounge in front of her.

However, what has he done for Ye Xingling?

Xia Yu looked at her quietly, twitching her lips to form a faint smile.

That smug smile stung Xia Ling. She was already so miserable and did not want to see anyone step on her pride. “Remuneration doesn’t come overnight” and “revenge has to be direct” were always Xia Ling’s life principles.

She turned to look at Chu Chen. “I want this lounge.”

“Miss Ye?” Chu Chen slightly raised his eyebrows.

“I said that I want room 1801.” She emphasized her words impatiently.

“The Boss instructed long ago that no one is allowed to touch Xia Ling’s things.” Chu Chen said. “This room is kept in honor and memory of the deceased. Even Xia Yu is not allowed to enter it. Miss Ye, please don’t make things difficult for me.”

Chu Chen patiently tried to talk her out of it and did not budge from his position.

Xia Yu smiled deeply. “Ye Xingling, know your place. This concerns my sister. Do you think Chu Chen has the authority to make a decision? I think you should just go downstairs as soon as possible. Otherwise, you might become a joke or even offend Brother Ziheng.”

Xia Ling sneered. This was nothing compared to the rage she felt towards Pei Ziheng.

“Call Pei Ziheng and tell him that I want this room.” She said to Chu Chen.

Chu Chen frowned. “Miss Ye, please forgive me, but I can’t do that. You just joined Imperial Entertainment and don’t know how important Xia Ling is. Her room is really off-limits. I don’t even think that you should try to take it.”

Xia Yu laughed softly as she watched the scene unfold.

Xia Ling was more irritated than before and stubbornly reached out her hand. “Give me your phone.” Even though she was signed to Imperial Entertainment, Pei Ziheng still did not intend to equip her with a phone. Now, she had to borrow Chu Chen’s. Since he did not dare to ask Pei Ziheng, she would ask him herself.

Chu Chen did not move.

“Give it to me!” Xia Ling demanded. “Chu Chen, do you think that I won’t be able to find a phone? Since when do I have to get your permission to call Pei Ziheng?! You better watch out as you might anger your master because of this!”
