Su Peizhen didn't realize what Ling Jing, that bastard, had done until she stood in front of the mirror.
Looking at the marks on her shoulders, Yue Xiong's mouth, and even her arms, she was so angry that her face turned green.
Tomorrow night was the company's annual meeting, and she had to attend it in a gown. How could she attend in her current state?
She secretly gritted her teeth, wishing she could skin Ling Jing, chop him up, and feed him to the dogs.
Damn that man.
The anger on Su Peizhen's face was obvious, especially when she found that even the simple action of walking felt weak in her legs. She really wanted to punch that bastard.
She had always been disdainful of hiding her emotions. When she went out, she inevitably showed it on her face.
Ling Jing knew that he had made this woman unhappy again yesterday, but so what?
This was just the beginning. To conquer her. To make this woman fascinated by him, whether in bed or out of bed, that was his goal.
Thinking of this, Ling Jing looked at Su Peizhen, who was about to go out with her bag and coat, and quickly stepped forward.
"You're going to work? Let me walk you. "If Young Master Ling's subordinates saw his gentle tone, their eyes would probably pop out.
When had they seen Young Master Ling so patient with a woman?
"No need."
Su Peizhen looked at him with some disdain in her eyes. Although she was afraid of the cold, she had always hated wearing too much. Today, she had tied a silk scarf around her neck to hide the marks on her neck.
Fortunately, when he went to the office later, there was a heater. It would definitely be hot. How was she going to take off the scarf?
Her tone wasn't very good, but Ling Jing, who already had a plan, didn't care at all.
"Darling, I think it's better if I give it to you."
As Ling Jing spoke, he glanced at Su Peizhen, and his gaze fell on her waist for a while. "After all, your legs should be a little weak now, right?"
Su Peizhen glared at Ling Jing, and an ice blade flashed in her eyes. She took two steps forward and stood in front of him, reaching out and grabbing the front of the man's shirt.
"I'll say it again, no need."
"Darling, are you angry?" Ling Jing clicked his tongue and looked at her grabbing his hand. "You still have the strength to be angry? It seems that I was merciful yesterday. "
Su Peizhen was about to speak, but Ling Jing lowered his head and kissed her lips.
It was a very provocative kiss. Su Peizhen's hands were still holding onto the front of his shirt. She wanted to push him away, but her body's memory unconsciously responded.
At the last moment, Su Peizhen pushed him away. His breathing quickened as he took a step back.
She glanced at him coldly and walked out without looking back.
"You really don't want me to send you? Don't worry, I'm not only good at that, I'm also good at driving. "
Su Peizhen's reaction was to pull the door open and slam it shut.
… …
Su Peizhen didn't want to go back to Rong Garden that night, but she thought that if she went home, she would have to take off the scarf. Xiang Caiping might see the marks on her body.
She gritted her teeth and had no choice but to return to Rong Garden at night.
It was close to the end of the year, but she always did not go home. Xiang Caiping felt uneasy and felt that there was still a gap between her and Xiang Caiping. Su Peizhen couldn't explain. She just said that she was too busy at the company.
Anyway, when the new house was renovated and it was closer to the company, she would accompany her more.
After taking a shower, she found Ling Jing lying on her bed. She had no time to pay attention to him. She did her pre-bedtime maintenance. When she lay down, she wanted to chase Ling Jing to the study to sleep.
However, he turned over and pressed himself on top of her.
"Get off. Not today. "
"Are you willing to?" Ling Jing pressed her waist to let her feel his passion. This damned woman had just taken off her clothes and put on moisturizer.
Her movements were so slow and seductive. If she wasn't seducing him, what was she doing?
"Ling Jing, I want to rest today."
"Don't worry, I'll only do it once."
He lowered his head and kissed her lips, not giving her a chance to refuse.
Su Peizhen's refusal was not thorough. He had to admit that Ling Jing was indeed an expert in this aspect. Not only was he full of tricks, but he could always find her point.
Most of all, he made her body happy.
While her body was happy, the emptiness in her heart could be forgotten.
… …
This was the first annual meeting after Xiang Caiping handed over the department store to Su Peizhen.
Because it was the first time, she made it very grand and booked a relatively famous five-star hotel in Rong City.
The dress that Su Peizhen originally picked was a white one with slanted shoulders. Because of that bastard Ling Jing, there were many marks on her body, neck, and shoulders.
Even after a day, it didn't disappear. Su Peizhen had to change her plan and choose a dark purple cheongsam.
This color couldn't be suppressed by ordinary people. Not to mention that the cheongsam was particularly picky and picky about the figure. Su Peizhen had a good figure and temperament. This outfit complemented her and could only make her temperament more outstanding.
She came directly from the company. She had originally said that she was going to pick up Xiang Caiping, but unexpectedly, Xiang Caiping said that she had someone to send her.
Xiang Caiping was used to saving money. Su Peizhen thought that she had taken a taxi. Unexpectedly, the person who sent her turned out to be the man she had met once.
Mrs. Lin's son.
"Peizhen." When Xiang Caiping saw Su Peizhen, she was still a little afraid that she would be unhappy.
However, yesterday, Mrs. Lin took the initiative to ask about Su Peizhen. Her son also came to visit.
Although he said it was to visit a new neighbor, he actually had an ulterior motive.
When Xiang Caiping heard that there was a chance, she immediately perked up. So she mentioned that there was an annual meeting at the company today. She asked him to send her over.
First, she wanted Su Peizhen to meet him. Second, she wanted to give the two of them a chance.
However, she had her own selfish motives. She didn't mention a word about Su Peizhen's imprisonment. From the moment Lin Feixing entered the door, his eyes had never left Su Peizhen.
His obviously stunned expression made her feel that she had made the right decision.
"This is what I told you before. Mrs. Lin's son knew that I was coming, so he sent me here on his way. I was thinking that since you don't have a dance partner today, why don't you ask him to be your dance partner later? "
Xiang Caiping said it very casually, but the meaning behind her words was self-evident.
Su Peizhen had a headache. She met the man's somewhat eager gaze. She really couldn't accept Xiang Caiping's actions.
"Sure."
"Hello. Miss Su, right? I'm Lin Feixing. I heard my mother mention you. "
Lin Feixing stood at the side and spoke at the right time. He was wearing a dark suit today. He looked a little more formal than that day. His elite demeanor wasn't annoying, but it also couldn't be compared to him recently.
"Hello." There was not much enthusiasm on Su Peizhen's face. She was willing to bet that Xiang Caiping didn't tell him about her situation.
"Thank you for sending my mother here. There are a lot of things to do today, so I might not be a good host. This way, please. "
"You don't have to entertain me. I can sit with Auntie Su."
Lin Feixing expressed his attitude at the right time. He was not impatient or cold. His propriety was just right.
Su Peizhen couldn't help but take another look at him. Then she went to greet the others.
In addition to the company's employees, Su Peizhen also invited some people from her partners. The annual party was quite lively.
She followed the process when she was at the Li Corporation, just a little less. After all, the Li Family had many more employees than this.
To her, this was really just a small event.
Lin Feixing sat next to Xiang Caiping and watched Su Peizhen become the main character of the party with ease. His eyes became more and more eager.
Xiang Caiping looked at Lin Feixing and felt a little relieved. In fact, she had a lot of things to say, but it was not appropriate to say a word here.
"Peizhen is really very capable. Ever since she joined the company, I haven't been involved in the company's affairs. She is very good at it. "
"Yes. I can see that. "
Lin Feixing's eyes never left Su Peizhen.
Xiang Caiping was even more satisfied. She hoped that Su Peizhen could be happy. Even if Su Peizhen said that she didn't want to get married, as a woman, if she didn't get married, who knew how much criticism there would be?
She herself had been like that all the way, and that was because she had run far enough.
When explaining to others, she only said that her husband died early and that she didn't want to find another one. But even so, she had experienced a lot of criticism and looks over the years.
She didn't want Su Peizhen to go through that again. In the end, she still believed that women should have a place to return to.
Su Peizhen went on stage to give a speech, summarizing the past and looking forward to the future. During the opening dance, as expected, Lin Feixing asked her to dance.
Because Xiang Caiping was there, Su Peizhen didn't refuse. As she spun with Lin Feixing on the dance floor, her voice was very soft.
"Mr. Lin. I think there might be something my mother didn't explain to you clearly. "
"You don't have to be so polite. Just call me Feixing."
Su Peizhen wasn't in a hurry to change the way she addressed him. She looked in Xiang Caiping's direction, who was looking at her with a gratified expression.
She had a headache. In some ways, she really didn't like what Xiang Caiping did. Xiang Caiping was her mother, the only family she had left.
"Mr. Lin, I know what my mother means, and I can roughly understand what you mean. But I want to tell you that some people are not like what you see. "
"I know, so I really want to know more about you, Miss Su."
Lin Feixing's enthusiasm didn't diminish. "Can I call you by your name, Peizhen? I think your name is very nice. It's too distant to call you Miss Su. "
"I've been in prison." Su Peizhen's voice was very soft, but it made Lin Feixing's expression change. "Miss Su, you …"
The two of them were still spinning on the dance floor. In terms of appearance, Lin Feixing was quite outstanding. But he wasn't Su Peizhen's type.
It should be said that at this stage, she wouldn't like any kind of man.
"Two years ago, because of some reasons, I did something wrong. Then I was put in prison for two years. "
"…" Even though Lin Feixing had been abroad, studied abroad, and had dealt with many big situations, when faced with Su Peizhen's attitude, he didn't know how to respond for a moment.
"I've not only been in prison, but I've also been engaged. I've had other men before that."
Su Peizhen's dance steps were different, and the corners of her mouth were even curled up the whole time. But her smile didn't reach her eyes.
She used an extremely cold tone to talk about her past.
"Mr. Lin, I hope you understand that I'm not like what you see. I'm also a good woman in the traditional sense. I can even say that I'm a bad woman. "
"So, Mr. Lin, thank you for your kindness."
The dance music was coming to an end. Su Peizhen spun around, her expression much calmer than before.
When the last circle stopped, Su Peizhen stood still and bowed to Lin Feixing.
"Mr. Lin. Thank you for driving my mother here today, but I don't think we're suitable. "
She nodded slightly, turned around, and walked in Xiang Caiping's direction.
When Xiang Caiping saw her coming, her eyes lit up.
"How was it? How was Feixing? "
Su Peizhen put her hand to her forehead. She just sat in his car, and she already called his name. Xiang Caiping's rhythm was really fast.
"Mom, Manager Zhang and Manager Lin wanted to say hello to you just now. Let's go over."
"Peizhen?"
"Let's talk about this when we get back, okay?"
"Okay." As long as Su Peizhen was willing to give him a chance, it was always good.
After the annual party, Lin Feixing didn't leave. Su Peizhen drank some wine, and Xiang Caiping suggested that she take Lin Feixing's car.
Lin Feixing looked at Su Peizhen, and she didn't refuse. Back at the villa, Su Peizhen didn't rush upstairs. Instead, she sat down with Xiang Caiping in the living room.
"Mom."
"Peizhen, what do you think of Feixing? I talked to him for a while today, and I think he's quite good. You can give him a chance, and I can also give you … "
"Mom." Su Peizhen stopped Xiang Caiping from continuing. "I just told Mr. Lin that I was in prison."
Xiang Caiping's expression changed. She looked at Su Peizhen blankly, unable to believe that Su Peizhen would do that.
"You …" No matter what, she had to get in touch with him, right? If there were feelings, maybe Lin Feixing wouldn't mind?
"Mom, I thank you for your concern. I mean it. But I really hope that you understand. A woman's way out is not necessarily marriage, and I don't have any thoughts about that now. "
"But, but that Feixing is really good. You … "
"Mom, marriage isn't just about talking about conditions. At least you have to like him. At least there's sincerity. " Su Peizhen really didn't want to quarrel with Xiang Caiping over this, but she really didn't want it to happen again.
"I don't intend to lie to anyone about me. If he can accept it, then accept it. If not, then forget it. If you are really that worried about me. I can get married, but I won't be happy. "
"…" Xiang Caiping was speechless. She didn't know what was wrong, and why Su Peizhen would have such a thought.
"Also, Mom, I only have you now. You and I will depend on each other for the rest of our lives. Even if we don't get married, I feel good about it. Is that okay? "
What else could Xiang Caiping say after what she had said?
"Then, then that's it." Her eyes were filled with guilt again. Su Peizhen didn't want to stay any longer, so she stood up.
"Mom, the plane is tomorrow morning. I'm going upstairs to sleep. You should sleep early too. "
Xiang Caiping nodded, still unwilling to give up. "Peizhen, if, I mean if. Lin Feixing doesn't mind what happened in the past, can you give him a chance? "
Su Peizhen had already decided to go upstairs, but hearing her words, she stopped. Seeing the passion in Xiang Caiping's eyes, she finally nodded.
"Okay, I promise you. If Lin Feixing doesn't mind, I will give him a chance. "
Xiang Caiping breathed a sigh of relief. That was good. She was afraid that Su Peizhen would reject anyone.
… …
Ling Jing had used his masculine charm to make Su Peizhen beg for mercy yesterday. At least that was how he understood it.
He thought that Su Peizhen would come again today. However, he didn't expect that Su Peizhen not only didn't come that night, but she also didn't come the next night.
In the next two or three days, Su Peizhen didn't show up at all. Not even a phone call or text message.
Ling Jing, who was about to celebrate the New Year, suddenly became irritable.
He asked Gu Xiu to check it out. He wanted to know if that woman had gone to find another gigolo.
After checking, he found out that the woman had gone abroad. She had taken her mother, whom she had met halfway, to the Aegean Sea.
Woman. All of a sudden, Ling Jing felt that his masculine charm had suddenly become useless.
Gu Xiu looked at Ling Jing's gloomy face, not understanding how Su Peizhen's going abroad had angered Ling Jing.
"Young Master, it's almost the New Year. Shouldn't you go home? Madam has been talking about you for a long time. "
"What's there to talk about? So what if it's the New Year? The New Year is the most boring. "
A group of people wished each other a Happy New Year with fake faces. Tsk tsk. Thinking about it made his teeth ache.
"Young Master." Gu Xiu was having a headache. "Madam and Master both want you to go home. Besides, the New Year is the day after tomorrow … "
"Alright, stop nagging."
That woman had gone abroad. This shabby apartment was indeed meaningless.
"I'll go back. But keep an eye on her. If that woman comes back, remember to tell me. "
Gu Xiu couldn't hide his shock, but he managed to keep the expression on his face. He looked at his young master. In all these years, he had never seen him care so much about a woman.
"Young Master, don't tell me you've fallen for that Miss Su?"
Based on Miss Su's situation, he was afraid that Master wouldn't be able to accept her.
Gu Xiu felt a knock on his head. "What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I fall for her? "
"Let's go home."
As if to prove his words, Ling Jing moved much faster this time.
Gu Xiu followed behind him, the premonition in his heart growing stronger.
"Young Master, if you don't like Miss Su, do I have to report to you that she's back?"
Gu Xiu received the second knock on his head that day.
… …
Su Peizhen took Xiang Caiping to the Aegean Sea for five days and took her to France for the remaining five days.
She had been to these places before. But Xiang Caiping hadn't.
The last time Xiang Caiping went abroad was with Su Qingsang. This time, she was with Su Peizhen. As long as Su Peizhen didn't ask Su Peizhen to get married or find a man, the mother and daughter got along well.
Ten days passed, and it was already the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. Su Peizhen finally returned to Rong City with Xiang Caiping.
After returning home, Su Peizhen threw herself back into work.
The company's online platform and online shopping were doing well. In addition, it was during the Spring Festival, so this month's turnover was very good.
Su Peizhen enjoyed work and the sense of accomplishment that work brought. After this wave of work, she thought of Ling Jing again.
Making money could make people happy. So could increasing wealth. But physical happiness often came in a simpler and more direct way.
Before returning to Rong Garden, Su Peizhen sent a message to Ling Jing, telling him that she would go over tonight.
During this period, she hadn't received a message from Ling Jing about spending money. First, she had canceled the message. Second, since the money was given to Ling Jing, it was his. He could spend it however he wanted. She had no intention of asking.
According to that man's personality, the money should be almost spent.
Anything that could be bought with money was cheap in Su Peizhen's eyes. She naturally believed that Ling Jing would definitely be waiting for her.
So when Su Peizhen returned home and didn't see Ling Jing, she was a little surprised.
That man didn't spend all his money during the Spring Festival?
The doubt only lasted for a moment. Su Peizhen quickly put this matter behind her. She didn't ask about Ling Jing's background, nor did she ask about Ling Jing's family.
She didn't want to ask, and she didn't need to. Since he wasn't around, she would just relax.
After opening a bottle of wine, Su Peizhen sat on the balcony and looked at the night outside the window. Rong City was actually very prosperous, and the development here was also good.
But she would always think of Lin City from time to time. She still remembered that her apartment was renovated by Li Qianxue. She still remembered her university graduation ceremony. Li Qianxue attended it with Su Chenghui and Su Yuxin.
She also remembered the first cooperation she negotiated in the company, the first time she independently proposed a plan …
Those memories had never been mentioned in front of Xiang Caiping, but they came back to her from time to time in her dreams.
She drank the wine in the glass in one gulp. When she was about to pour herself more wine, the wine bottle in her hand was taken away. She didn't know when Ling Jing had returned and was sitting next to her.
"Drinking alone? Is it because you're lonely late at night when I'm not around? "
Damn that woman. She was gone for more than ten days without a call or a text. It was fine that she didn't look for him when she came back.
But today, she only sent a cold message saying that she was coming over.
This woman was really ruthless and cold. Su Peizhen ignored him. She wanted to get the wine bottle, but was stopped by Ling Jing.
Ling Jing poured a glass of wine into her glass, took the glass in her hand, and took a sip. He lowered his head and sealed it with a kiss.
His kiss was filled with hostility and rudeness. He was actually very angry.
When he saw the message, his first reaction was anger, and his second reaction was not to come.
He was not that woman's pet. Why should he show up with a text from Su Peizhen?
If he didn't come, what could she do to him?
If he didn't want to show up, this woman wouldn't be able to find him even if she turned Rong City upside down.
But when he threw the phone aside, his mind was thinking of Su Peizhen's snow-white skin and her passionate reaction.
He couldn't control his body. He told himself that he hadn't conquered this damn woman. He hadn't made her addicted to him and obsessed with him.
So of course he had to come. Not only did he have to come, but he also had to keep nibbling away at her and make this woman fall in love with him little by little.
The wine wasn't strong, but it was sweet. Su Peizhen's wine was good. Of course, her taste was even better.
Su Peizhen didn't resist. She came over today to ask him to do it. She wasn't a pretentious woman.
She put her hands around his neck and took the initiative.
