Su Peizhen thought that Ling Jing was going to take her to his room, but that was not the case.
The hotel they were staying in now had a very large courtyard behind it.
The courtyard was well decorated. When they went down to the first floor, a staff member on duty came over and asked if they needed help. After Ling Jing refused, he took 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 soon she was not cold anymore. Ling Jing hugged her.
He was very tall, and she was tightly wrapped in his arms. She couldn't break free and could only let him hug her.
The cold wind outside that blew on his body was blocked by him. But Su Peizhen didn't appreciate it.
There were rattan chairs for guests to rest on next to the courtyard. Before Su Peizhen could struggle, Ling Jing had already taken Su Peizhen to sit on the rattan chair.
Su Peizhen almost wanted to get up as soon as she touched the chair, but Ling Jing pressed her down again.
"Stay with me for twenty minutes. Twenty minutes will be enough. "
"I refuse."
"You can choose to sit here voluntarily, or you can choose to be forced to sit here." Ling Jing held her waist and played a rascal. "But the result will be the same."
"Ling Jing, I really didn't know that you could be so shameless."
"I will take this as a compliment." No matter what she said, Ling Jing didn't let go.
Su Peizhen glanced at him and took a long breath. "Okay. I won't leave. Twenty minutes, right? I'll wait. "
Ling Jing's hand was still on her waist. She almost couldn't control the expression on her face. "Ling Jing, I already promised you that I won't leave. What else do you want?"
"I know." As Ling Jing spoke, he hugged her and pressed his chin against her neck.
"But, I haven't hugged you for a long time."
Su Peizhen's body was stiff, but she didn't move at all. "Ling Jing, let go."
"Just for a while. Just for a while. " Ling Jing wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her tightly. "It's so cold. Don't you think it will be warmer if we hug each other?"
"It's also warm when I sleep in the hotel room."
"But I think your body is warmer."
Su Peizhen resisted the urge to lose her temper and was about to push Ling Jing away when she heard his voice.
"Five minutes left."
"What?"
"New Year." Ling Jing stepped back a little and took her into his arms. "It will be a new year in five minutes."
"…" Su Peizhen was stunned. She didn't expect Ling Jing to find her for this purpose.
However, "So? You won't let me sleep just because it's almost New Year's Eve? "
"Yes." Ling Jing nodded. "Last year, during the New Year's Eve, you abandoned me and ran away. Make up for it this year. "
Su Peizhen didn't say anything. She had just brought him back to Rong Garden during the New Year's Eve. She thought he was just a hooligan, so naturally, she wouldn't pay much attention to him.
If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have picked him up in the first place.
As if knowing what she was thinking, Ling Jing placed her chin on the top of her head and gently rubbed it.
"Su Peizhen, I'm very happy that you were the one who picked me up last year."
"Is that so? But I regret not letting you fend for yourself in that alley. "
She said it quite bluntly. Ling Jing wasn't angry.
"I heard that if two people kiss during the New Year's Eve, they can be together for the rest of their lives."
Ling Jing's words made Su Peizhen's eyes widen. It was too late to escape. Someone was counting down in the distance.
When the last zero was counted, Ling Jing kissed her lips.
At the same time, countless fireworks bloomed in the sky.
Su Peizhen was stunned for a moment. At that moment, Ling Jing deepened the kiss.
It was extremely gentle and extremely lingering. He never let Su Peizhen move away from his arms, nor did he let go of her at all.
In the sky full of fireworks, Ling Jing ended the kiss. He looked up at the sky and then looked at Su Peizhen.
"Happy New Year."
Su Peizhen didn't reply to him. She looked at the gorgeous sky, and she couldn't tell what she was feeling.
She didn't speak, and Ling Jing didn't speak either. He just held her and quietly admired.
"Maybe it's a little cliché. But it's New Year's Eve. I can't think of anything better. Maybe you can tell me. I'll prepare whatever you like. "
Su Peizhen didn't say anything. How would she know what she liked?
She was in a state where she had no desires. She didn't care about anything, and she didn't care about anything.
In fact, she found out a long time ago that she could never find the enthusiasm she used to have, and she couldn't go back to the past when she was ambitious.
"Peizhen?"
Su Peizhen didn't look at him. She watched another firework explode in the sky, bringing a brilliant scene. Her voice was very cold.
"Whatever I like, it won't be 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 beside her.
"Twenty minutes are up. I'm going back."
She felt a tightness on her wrist, and her footsteps stopped there. Ling Jing pulled her body and looked at her with a somewhat fervent 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 didn't look back. She pulled her hand out bit by bit, and her voice was extremely cold.
"Yes. My heart is so hard. It's useless for you to do anything, and you don't have to do anything anymore. Ling Jing. I'll say it again, no matter what you do or how you do it, I won't forgive you. I won't. I won't be with you. I won't. Don't do these useless things. "
Su Peizhen tightened her coat and left without looking back.
The fireworks were still going on, but Ling Jing was no longer in the mood to enjoy it. He softened his body and collapsed on the rattan chair, looking very depressed.
… …
After New Year's Day, Ling Jing didn't appear again. Su Peizhen thought that her words had worked.
Faced with Xiang Caiping's question, she only said that Ling Jing had urgent matters 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 very obvious.
How could Xiang Caiping not see that Ling Jing had been too attentive recently? She knew that he was interested in her daughter, so she wanted to interact more and observe him. Maybe they could become a good couple.
Even though she knew that Su Peizhen didn't care about it, she thought that it was always good to have more opportunities.
Now, her daughter's attitude was so cold. And Ling Jing had left again. Those words were not good to say, so she could only swallow them.
However, after the trip, she looked at Su Peizhen several times and wanted to say something, but stopped herself. Su Peizhen completely pretended not to see it.
Until the two of them returned to Rong City. After returning, because the New Year was coming soon. Xiang Caiping began to busy herself again. She had to prepare for the New Year.
After a while, she finally stopped talking about Ling Jing.
Occasionally, she would sigh with the nanny at home that the two of them were not destined to be together.
Su Peizhen occasionally heard it, but pretended not to hear it. This year's New Year came earlier than usual.
The New Year was at the end of January. Su Peizhen was very busy at the end of the year. She was busy last year, and this year, because she took over Su Chenghui's company, she was even busier.
Not to mention that Tang Mohan had previously said that there was a project in Australia that they could work on together. She was busy all day long.
Xiang Caiping said that she had lost weight, but she didn't feel it herself.
The few times she saw Lin Feixing, they talked about some business, but they didn't go any further.
Once in a while, her car broke down. After going to Tang Mohan's company to discuss the cooperation, he casually asked her about it, then out of politeness, he sent her home.
This caused Xiang Caiping to have a lot of misunderstandings. Huo Jinyao's childhood friend naturally couldn't be any worse.
Tang Mohan looked like a successful person at first glance. Xiang Caiping asked again, and when she heard that it was just a cooperation, the happiness on her face faded again.
But then she began to talk about Ling Jing. She said that he promised to go back to Rong City to look for her, but he never came.
Su Peizhen pretended not to hear it. She couldn't tell how she felt. She rejected Ling Jing and didn't let him appear again, but he didn't appear again.
It turned out that his persistence was just that.
After thinking it through, there was no need to care about some things.
Life was like this. She should have seen through it a long time ago. Was it really true that someone couldn't live without someone?
Su Peizhen told herself to let go of this matter and not take it to heart. In the future, what happened to Ling Jing was none of her business.
After the annual party, it was the New Year. This year, she still had to spend the New Year with Xiang Caiping. However, on the day before New Year's Eve, she went to see Su Chenghui.
Because Su Qingsang and Su Peizhen were both here, Su Chenghui bought a property here.
Su Yuxin was also on winter vacation, and Old Master Li also came over. Su Chenghui knew that Su Peizhen was going to spend New Year's Eve with Xiang Caiping, so they had a reunion dinner a day in advance.
In addition to Old Master Li, Li Qianxue, Su Chenghui, and Su Yuxin, there were also Su Qingsang's family of four.
The two children were two years old. They were at the age of cuteness. They were learning to speak and looked very cute.
Su Peizhen had prepared early and gave each of the two children a big red envelope. She didn't care about the amount of money, as long as it was the thought.
In the end, Old Master Li and Li Qianxue gave her red envelopes instead.
"They are not married, so they are considered children," Li Qianxue said.
Looking at the few red envelopes in her hand, Su Peizhen's eyes were a little hot. In fact, this was very good.
She had both sides of the family, both sides of the care and love. She had family, career, love, and so on. It really didn't matter.
…
New Year's Eve.
This was a day for family reunion. However, 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 the same people, the same things. Back and forth, the trivial things were tossed around again and again, wishing that they could be tossed around from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.
He sat in the extremely luxurious and luxurious living room of the Ling family, watching the eldest, second, third, and fourth children surrounding the old man, trying their best to flatter him. He felt disgusted.
It wasn't just disgusting. It was also boring. It was the same show every year, and he was tired of watching it.
