Chapter 772: Pei Ziheng Did It

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

She was indifferent and carefree.

It was not because she was overwhelmed after he tried to flatter her or because she was conceited as she had The Preceptor’s support. In fact, she did not even show that she was angry that her child was kidnapped. Where exactly did this temperament come from?

What a pity...

If her background was better, she would be eligible to marry into the Li Family.

Thinking about this, Old Master Li looked at Xia Ling. “Since I’m sincerely apologizing, I will naturally do my best to satisfy you. Miss Ye, just tell me what you want.”

Xia Ling continued to look at the sea. “I want to go back in time and prevent Shaohui from being kidnapped.” After that, she turned around at smiled at Old Master Li. “You can’t do that, right?”

Old Master Li said, “I’m afraid even The Preceptor can’t do this.”

Xia Ling stood up and looked far away. “Old Master, you know what I want.” She wanted to be with Li Lei, accepted into and live harmoniously with the family.

However, Old Master was unwilling to do so.

Sure enough, the old man frowned and lowered his voice. “Miss Ye, it seems that you’re asking for too much. Instead of asking me this, how about you ask The Preceptor to eliminate your disaster curse. When that happens, the Li Family will let you marry into the family as you wish.”

On the deck, the young girl paused in her footsteps and turned around. “Oh, really?”

She continued to walk forward.

She wanted to spend her life with her beloved man, but she was not begging to marry into the Li Family. It would be best if she could get the Li Family’s acceptance and blessing, but if that wasn’t possible, she would not insist on it. In the worst case scenario, she would just not have a marriage ceremony with Li Lei and not marry into the Li Family. As for the Li Family, they would never know what they lost.

The honor of a phoenix marrying into their family.

In exchange for her the tough life, she would bring blessings to the family she married into.

This was the true essence of the phoenix’s fate. After nirvana and many disasters, there would be long-lasting blessings. Any family that benefitted from it would have peace and wealth for generations. Thus, her brother always warned her not to easily marry into any family. If the Li Family refused to acknowledge her and did not have the courage to bear her disasters, naturally, they did not deserve to have her bless them for future generations. If she married into the family by force, the Li Family would only receive ill luck.

When the Phoenix perched on a Chinese parasol tree...

The tree had to be able to withstand its weight.

She walked forward step by step. She appeared elegant and dignified, as if she should not be violated. Old Master Li was rather lost. Who exactly was this girl?

“You...” He finally couldn’t resist and asked, “How are you related to The Preceptor?”

Xia Ling paused, turned around, and smiled again. “If I said that The Preceptor met me due to luck, promised to help me once, and there’s no other relationship, will you be very disappointed Old Master?”

She was obviously mocking him. Old Master’s face darkened.

This girl was really not giving him face!

It turned out that she did not have any deep relationship with Preceptor Xia and was borrowing someone else’s influence to throw her weight around!

Old Master clutched the teapot in his hand tighter and almost crushed it. At the side, his subordinate looked worried and carefully said, “Old Master, don’t be angry over such an insensible little girl. It’s not worth it.”

Old Master Li thought so as well. He restrained his anger and calmed down.

Since Xia Ling had nothing to do with The Preceptor, Old Master Li had no intention of remaining on the cruise. Before he left, he called his grandson over. “Li Lei, I will never allow her to marry into the family. You know it well.”

“In this life, Xiao Ling will be my only wife.” The young and handsome man glared at his grandpa fearlessly. “No matter what you do, you will never break us apart. I have also something to ask you. How exactly did you to think of bringing Shaohui to this place? Was it Pei Ziheng?”

He was not stupid and suspected for years that his grandpa was colluding with Pei Ziheng in secret, but he was never able to find any conclusive evidence. However, this time, it was too suspicious. Why would ordinary people place a child in a Slave and Master club? Only Pei Ziheng would know about Xiao Ling’s worst fears and horrific past and decide on such a deliberate move.

Sure enough, Old Master Li squinted his eyes and smiled sarcastically. “Have you only realized it now? Yes, I have colluded with Pei Ziheng a long time ago. That man spends more effort on Ye Xingling than you. They are predestined to be together, so don’t get between them.”

“Grandpa!” Li Lei almost couldn’t restrain his anger.

Old Master sneered and walked away.

Behind the screen of the luxurious room, a girl who wearing light silk robes walked out quietly and looked as Old Master walked away with a pale expression. “It’s actually him...” She mumbled. “I thought that after so many years, everyone could finally get along. It turns out that he was just faking it in front of me...”

She clenched her pale fingers into fists.

Even if fate separated old lovers, in their memories, their most beautiful time together was ever present like a dream.

However, what about her past lover?

He was like a bloody thorn.

She lowered her eyes so the others could not see her expression.

Li Lei stepped forward and gently hugged her thin body. ” Xiao Ling, the past is in the past. Stay away from that man in the future. He’s too dangerous.”

She was silent for a long time.

Finally, the cruise arrived on the coast. When she lifted her skirt and someone was trying to help her off the ship, she turned around and said to him, “A few days later, Shaohui’s identity will be announced to the public. Change the news a little.”

As if he already expected her to say this, Li Lei was not surprised. “Ok.”

In his heart, he silently lit a candle for Pei Ziheng. He couldn’ help but feel a little happy. This was the result of not giving up. At the start, Xiao Ling still thought of that man positively. But now, everything was ruined by him.

He thanked his rival.

Li Lei smiled wider.

Xia Ling brought Shaohui home. After they settled in, she went straight to the villa next door to look for Pei Ziheng.

Nanny Zhou, the Pei Family’s subordinate, opened the door. When she saw her, she was very surprised. “Miss Ye, what brings you here today? Quickly come in. Mister is in the study. I will call him down immediately.” Mister already informed her that no matter when Miss Ye visited, she had to inform her immediately.

Xia Ling said, “No need. I will go look for him myself.”

Nanny Zhou said, “That’s also ok.” Although mister did not like people disturbing him when he was in the study, he made an exception for Miss Ye, and she always had special privileges.

Xia Ling went upstairs. It was a familiar path. When she walked to the study room at the end of the walkway, she pushed the door open. Inside, a tall man was sitting behind a spacious rosewood desk and dealing with mountains of official documents. His facial features were as cold and profound as ever. In the dim light, he was slightly frowning and his wrinkles were clearly carved on his face.

After hearing some noise, he raised his head and softened his expression. “Xiao Ling.”
