Chapter 880: Chapter 065: I will take this as a compliment
Su Peizhen thought that Ling Jing wanted to bring her to his room, but it wasn’t the case
The hotel they were staying in now had a very large courtyard at the back.
The courtyard was well decorated. When they went down to the first floor, a staff on duty came over to ask if they needed help. After Ling Jing refused, he brought Su Peizhen directly to the back door of the hotel.
Standing at the entrance of the courtyard, Su Peizhen didn’t know what Ling Jing wanted to do. But no matter what he wanted to do, she refused to go out.
She tightened her coat. It was very cold here at night. But she was not cold very soon. Ling Jing hugged her.
He was originally very tall. She was in his arms and tightly encircled. She couldn’t break free and could only let him hug her.
The cold air from the cold wind outside was blocked by him. However, Su Peizhen did not appreciate his kindness.
There was a rattan chair beside the courtyard where guests could rest. Before SU Peizhen could struggle, Ling Jing had already brought Su Peizhen to sit on the rattan chair.
Su Peizhen almost remembered the moment she touched the chair, but she was pressed down by Ling Jing.
“Stay with me for twenty minutes. Just twenty minutes will do.”
/
“I refuse.”
“You can choose to sit here voluntarily, or you can choose me to force you to sit here.”Ling Jing held her waist and acted shamelessly. “But the results are all the same.”
“Ling Jing, I really didn’t know that you could still be so Shameless.”
“I will take this as a compliment.”No matter what she said, Ling Jing wouldn’t let go.
Su Peizhen glanced at him and took a deep breath. “Okay. I Won’t leave. Twenty minutes, right? I’ll wait.”
Ling Jing’s hand was still on her waist. She almost could not hold back the expression on her face. “Ling Jing, I’ve already promised you not to leave. What else do you want?”
“I know.”As Ling Jing spoke, he took the opportunity to hug her, pressing his chin against her neck.
“But I haven’t hugged you for a long time.”
Su Peizhen’s body was stiff and unmoved. “Ling Jing, let go.”
“Just hug for a while. It’ll be fine in a while.”Ling Jing wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her tightly. “It’s so cold. Don’t you think it’s warmer when two people hug each other?”
“It’s also very warm when I sleep in the hotel room.”
“But I think your body is warmer.”
Su Peizhen resisted the urge to burst out. Just as she was about to push Ling Jing away, he suddenly said in her ear.
“There are five minutes left.”
“What?”
“New Year.”Ling Jing stepped back and pulled her into his arms. “There are five minutes left until the New Year.”
“...”Su Peizhen was stunned. She didn’t expect Ling Jing to find her for this purpose.
However, “So? You Didn’t let me sleep because the new year was coming?”
“Yes.”Ling Jing nodded. “Last year, you abandoned me and ran away. This year, I’ll make up for it.”
Su Peizhen didn’t say anything. Last year, the New Year. At that time, she had just brought him back to Rong Garden. She thought he was a small hooligan, so she naturally didn’t pay much attention to him.
If she had known, she wouldn’t have brought him back in the first place.
As if he knew what she was thinking, Ling Jing pressed his chin against the top of her hair and gently stroked it.
“Su Peizhen, I’m very happy. At this time last year, you were the one who picked me up.”
“Is that so? But I regret that I didn’t let you die by yourself in that Alley.”
She said it quite bluntly, and Ling Jing wasn’t angry.
“I heard that kissing during the new year, two people can be together for a lifetime.”
Ling Jing’s words made Su Peizhen widen her eyes. It was too late for her to escape. Someone was counting down in the distance.
When the last zero was counted down, Ling Jing kissed her lips.
At the same time, countless fireworks bloomed in the sky.
Su Peizhen was stunned for a moment. At this moment, Ling Jing deepened the kiss.
It was extremely gentle and also extremely lingering. He never let Su Peizhen leave his embrace, nor did he ever let go.
In the midst of the fireworks, Ling Jing ended the kiss. He raised his head to look at the sky and then at Su Peizhen.
“Happy New Year.”
Su Peizhen did not reply to him. She looked at the gorgeous sky and could not tell what she felt in her heart.
She did not speak, and Ling Jing did not speak either. He just hugged her and admired her quietly.
“Maybe it’s a little cliché. But, it’s the New Year, and I didn’t think of anything better. Maybe you can tell me what you like, and I’ll prepare it.”
Su Peizhen didn’t say anything. How would she know what she liked?
She was already in a state where she didn’t want anything. She didn’t care about anything, and she didn’t care about anything.
In fact, she had discovered a long time ago that she could no longer find her former passion and return to the time when she was ambitious.
“Peizhen?”
Su Peizhen didn’t look at him. She watched as another firework exploded in the air, bringing with it a brilliant scene. Her voice was very cold.
“Anyway, what I like won’t be like you.”
There was a flash of sadness in Ling Jing’s eyes. Su Peizhen naturally didn’t see it. But she could feel the low pressure coming from her side.
“Twenty minutes are up. I’m going back.”
Her wrist tightened, and her footsteps stopped there. Ling Jing pulled her body and looked at her with a somewhat eager gaze.
“Is your heart so hard?”
The light of the fireworks shone on her body, casting a long shadow in front of her.
Su Peizhen did not turn her head. She pulled her hand out bit by bit, her voice extremely cold.
“Yes. My heart is so hard. Whatever you do is useless, and you don’t have to do anything else. Ling Jing. I’ll say it again. No matter what you do, no matter what you do, I won’t forgive you. I just won’t. I Won’t be with you, I just won’t. “Don’t do all this useless work.”
Tightening her coat, Su Peizhen left without looking back.
The fireworks were still going on, but Ling Jing was no longer in the mood to appreciate them. He slumped down on the rattan chair, looking very dejected.
..
After New Year’s Day, Ling Jing didn’t appear again. Su Peizhen thought her words were effective.
Facing Xiang Caiping’s inquiry, she only said that Ling Jing had something urgent to deal with back home and left first. Xiang caiping was disappointed for a long time.
She looked at Su Peizhen from time to time. In fact, her thoughts were too shallow and it was obvious.
During this period of time, Ling Jing was too attentive. How could xiang caiping not see it? Knowing that he was interested in his daughter, she wanted to get to know him more and observe him. Maybe they could become a beautiful couple.
Even though she knew that Su Peizhen didn’t really care about her, she thought that it was always good to have another chance.
Now, seeing her daughter’s cold attitude. And Ling Jing had left again. Those words were hard to say, so she could only swallow them back down.
But in the following journey, she looked at Su Peizhen several times, wanting to say something but stopping. Su Peizhen completely pretended not to see it.
Until the two of them returned to Rongcheng. After they came back, because it was almost new year’s. Xiang caiping was busy with something again and had to prepare new year’s goods.
After a while, she finally stopped mentioning Ling Jing.
She would occasionally sigh with the nanny at home. The two of them were not fated.
Su Peizhen occasionally listened and pretended not to hear. This year’s new year was earlier than previous years.
The spring festival was at the end of January. Su Peizhen was very busy at the end of the year. She was busy last year, but this year, because she had taken over Su Chenghui’s company, she was even busier.
Not to mention that previously, Tang Mohan had said that there was a project in Australia that they could work on together. She was extremely busy.
Xiang caiping said that she had lost weight, but she didn’t feel it.
They met Lin feixing a few times, and the two of them discussed some business matters, but they didn’t go any further.
Occasionally, her car broke down. After going to Tang Mohan’s company to discuss a business deal, he casually asked her a question. Then, out of courtesy, he sent her home.
This send-off caused many misunderstandings between Xiang caiping. Huo Jinyao’s childhood friend was naturally not that bad.
Tang Mohan looked like a successful person at a glance. He asked Xiang caiping once, and when he heard that it was just a business relationship, the happiness on his face decreased again.
But then he started to mention Ling Jing again. He said that he had promised to go back to Rong City to look for her, but he had never come.
Su Peizhen pretended not to hear it. But she didn’t know what to think in her heart. She rejected Ling Jing and didn’t let him appear again, but he didn’t appear again as expected.
So, his persistence was only so-so.
After thinking it through, there was nothing to care about.
Life was like this. She should have seen through it long ago. It was true that the one who was missing would not be able to live?
Su Peizhen told herself to put this matter aside and not take it to heart. Whatever Ling Jing did in the future was none of her business.
After the annual meeting, it was time for the New Year. This year, she still had to spend the new year with Xiang caiping. However, the day before New Year’s Eve, she went to see Su Chenghui.
Because Su Qingsang and Su Peizhen were both here, Su Chenghui set up a business here.
Su Yuxin was also on winter vacation, and Old Master Li was also here. Su Chenghui knew that Su Peizhen was going to accompany Xiang caiping on New Year’s Eve, so he had a reunion dinner one day in advance.
In addition to old master Li, Li Qianxue, Su Chenghui, Su Yuxin, and Su Qingsang’s family of four.
The two children were two years old. It was the time for them to be cute, and they looked very cute.
Su Peizhen had already prepared a big red packet for each of the two children. She didn’t care about the money, it was just a thought.
In the end, old master Li and Li Qianxue gave her a red packet instead.
“They’re not married, they’re still children,”Li Qianxue said.
Looking at the red packets in her hands, Su Peizhen’s eyes were a little hot. Actually, this was very good.
She had two sides of her family and two sides of her care and love. She had family, career, and love. It was really not important.
..
New Year’s Eve.
This was a day for family reunion. But for Ling Jing, it didn’t matter whether it was a reunion or not.
Every New Year’s Eve was the same. Every year, it was those people and those things. The messy things were tossed and turned repeatedly. He wanted nothing more than to toss and turn from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.
He sat in the luxuriously decorated living room of the Ling family. He felt disgusted when he saw the eldest, second, third, and fourth all around the old man, trying their best to flatter him.
It wasn’t just that he felt disgusted. He also felt bored. It was the same show every year. He was tired of it.
“Ling Jing?”Liu Xiyun was the one who noticed that something was wrong with her son. Her son had been acting very strange recently.
