Su Peizhen stood there without moving. No matter how well-mannered she was, she couldn't take it anymore.
He was a liar. After lying to her, he came to lie to her mother.
He was full of lies and had never spoken a word of truth. What he said was false, and what he did was false.
How could an insincere person stand here?
"Peizhen?" She stood still. Xiang Caiping was confused. "Go."
"Mom." She forced a smile. Su Peizhen's voice was very calm. "It's getting late. Maybe his family is waiting for him to go back. After all, it's the New Year. It's fine after he throws a tantrum. "
After saying this, she turned to Ling Jing. "We're family. There's no overnight feud. It's better for you to go back. "
"My dad has a bad temper. He kicked me out. If I go back, he'll be even more arrogant."
Ling Jing sounded like a child throwing a tantrum. "I don't want to go back."
Knowing that Su Peizhen wanted to kick him out, he looked at Xiang Caiping. "Auntie, can you take me in for a day?"
Xiang Caiping was very soft-hearted. She couldn't stand Ling Jing's look.
She turned to Su Peizhen and looked a little reproachful. "You're too much. A 'Jing already said he has nowhere to go, and you still want to kick him out. It's the New Year. What's wrong with letting him stay for a day? Go and clean up the guest room. "
"Mom —"
"Go."
Su Peizhen was helpless. She glared at Ling Jing, turned around, and went to the guest room without looking back.
…
When Su Peizhen first renovated the house, the guest room was just for decoration. Anyway, the house was big and there were many rooms. She kept two as backups. It didn't matter if there was a chance to change it in the future.
The two guest rooms had never been occupied before. The bed inside was empty.
Su Peizhen took out the bedsheets and duvet and stood by the bed. She couldn't swallow the anger in her heart.
But how could she solve the situation in front of her?
…
After leaving the guest room, she saw Ling Jing watching the New Year's Gala with Xiang Caiping.
Su Peizhen had never watched this kind of show. However, she had been worried about Xiang Caiping for the past two years, so she sat by the side and watched.
"Hahahaha."
Xiang Caiping had a low threshold for humor. She could enjoy watching any comedy or skit.
Su Peizhen sat on the other side of Xiang Caiping. When she saw her, the smile in her eyes deepened.
"Peizhen, you are here? Did you see that? So funny. "
The corners of Su Peizhen's mouth twitched. She couldn't bring herself to smile.
"It's really funny." Ling Jing nodded. Su Peizhen's worldview was ruined by him.
This guy watches the Spring Festival Gala? ,
"Auntie, let me tell you, I never watched the Spring Festival Gala before. I didn't expect the Spring Festival Gala to be so interesting. "
"It's true. It was indeed beautiful. You look better every year. " Xiang Caiping nodded as if she had found a confidant. "Look at this stage. It's much more beautiful than what we've seen before."
"Yes."
Su Peizhen sat there and once again felt like an outsider.
She stood up and said, "Mom, I'm going to take a shower."
"Alright. Go ahead. "Xiang Caiping nodded." I'll watch for a while longer. "
Su Peizhen went upstairs and glanced at Ling Jing. He didn't look in her direction.
Her room was upstairs. She had connected the two upstairs rooms to make one large room.
Su Peizhen went into the bathroom impatiently. When she came out again, she had calmed down. Forget it. She would watch it later. After New Year's Eve, she would take Xiang Caiping out to play tomorrow.
It would be good if she wasn't at home. Let's see how Ling Jing would follow her.
No, the last time they went to Japan, didn't Ling Jing follow them?
That guy would follow them again. Since that was the case, what did it matter where she stayed now?
Su Peizhen took a shower and deliberately locked the door. She knew that Ling Jing was next door. She didn't want him to have a chance to sneak into her room in the middle of the night.
Ling Jing wouldn't sneak in. He was just knocking on the door openly.
Su Peizhen heard the knock and knew it was Ling Jing. Considering that Xiang Caiping was next door, she went to open the door.
"Can I come in?"
"The guest room is downstairs."
"I have something to say to you."
"If you're talking about starting over, you don't have to say it." Su Peizhen was expressionless. "I don't plan to start over with you."
"But I do."
"That's your business." Su Peizhen didn't understand how her heart could be so hard, but she was just so hard and unmoved.
"Go, Ling Jing. It's useless for you to stay here. No matter how much you pester my mother, it's useless. I won't start over with you. I won't. I, Su Peizhen, always do what I say. You know that. "
After saying this, she quickly closed the door and locked it.
She moved quickly, and her heart beat even faster. She was even glad that Ling Jing wasn't as shameless as before. He didn't break in without any scruples.
After returning to her room, she forced herself to calm down. Since she had made a decision, she wouldn't regret it. It wasn't her style.
She spent a lot of effort to convince herself and finally went to sleep. But that night, she didn't sleep well. She tossed and turned on the bed, tossing and turning.
It took her a long time to fall asleep, but after falling asleep, it was an endless dream. In the dream, it was Ling Jing's enlarged face.
He said over and over again, let's start over. Let's start over again.
His eyes were focused and affectionate. Su Peizhen almost agreed.
After Ling Jing came to her door again and again, she dreamed that she finally gave in.
"Okay, Ling Jing, let's start over."
But the scene changed. Ling Jing suddenly looked at her with a smile. "Did I fool you? Who wants to start over with you? Let me tell you, I won't fall for you. You're just a convict. "
Su Peizhen woke up from the dream with joy. Her face was very pale.
She rubbed her forehead and looked out of the window. The sky was getting brighter. Just like that, the day had passed.
Today was the first day of the Lunar New Year.
Xiang Caiping was alone in Rong City and didn't have any relatives. But a few of her former subordinates still came to visit every year during the Lunar New Year.
Those subordinates had become Su Peizhen's subordinates, so she naturally had to be there.
She got up in the morning and cleaned herself up, only to find that Ling Jing had already left.
Su Peizhen didn't find it strange. She didn't even ask Xiang Caiping when Ling Jing left.
Xiang Caiping looked at her and wanted to say something several times. She didn't move at all.
After entertaining the subordinates who came to visit, Su Peizhen took some time to go to Su Chenghui's current residence in Rong City.
She visited Su Chenghui and his wife and received two big red envelopes.
Li Qianxue patted her hand, obviously very glad. "Fortunately, you came today. We've already booked tickets to Australia tomorrow."
"Yeah." Su Yuxin looked at Su Peizhen. "Sister, do you want to go together?"
"No." Xiang Caiping was still at home. She couldn't leave her alone to play.
Su Chenghui's family was going on a trip, and she couldn't bring Xiang Caiping with her.
"Next time, then."
Li Qianxue knew her current situation and didn't force her. It was unlikely that she and Xiang Caiping would get along well. She felt uncomfortable when she saw her.
She could tolerate Su Peizhen because she had raised Su Peizhen, but she was not generous enough to accept Xiang Caiping.
Su Peizhen didn't stay long at the Su Mansion and went back soon. She didn't see Ling Jing come back and breathed a sigh of relief.
Until night time, there were still people setting off fireworks outside the window.
Looking at the brilliant fireworks, she thought of the time in Japan when Ling Jing took her outdoors and gave her a fireworks ceremony.
But so what?
No matter how brilliant the fireworks were, they would eventually return to peace. Just like between her and Ling Jing.
Ling Jing's absence made things convenient for her. Su Chenghui and his family went out to play. She also booked tickets and went out with Xiang Caiping.
Although she was used to the cold weather in Rong City, she still liked the relatively warm weather in the south.
She stayed with Xiang Caiping in Hainan for a few days. This time, Ling Jing didn't come with them.
She tried a relatively relaxed and warm vacation with Xiang Caiping and her daughter. Ling Jing didn't appear again until they returned to Rong City.
Su Peizhen couldn't tell what she was feeling. She was the one who asked Ling Jing not to come again.
But when he really didn't come, she felt a little awkward and a little sad.
In the blink of an eye, fifteen years had passed. Su Peizhen began to get busy again. She went on a business trip, and when she came back, she began to get busy again because of the previous project with Tang Mohan's company.
In the blink of an eye, the first month passed just like that.
One day, when she came home from work and passed by the bakery that Ling Jing had opened when he lied to her, she found that the sign had been changed.
She was stunned. Because Ling Jing had chosen this place as a place to lie to her, she didn't look at this shop every time she passed by.
But she didn't expect that the shop would change its sign after a few days.
The new sign was very popular. It was called Zhen Xin Baking Shop. It didn't sound as good as the previous English name.
Strangely, she pulled over and got out of the car. She entered the Zhen Xin Baking Shop.
The decoration and layout seemed to be completely different from the last time she was here.
The staff in the same uniform were putting new products on the shelves.
One of the cakes was very exquisite, with two very cute people on it. It was a man and a woman, and it was very small. She looked around and finally decided on this one.
"Pack this cake for me," Su Peizhen said.
Unexpectedly, the staff behind the counter shook her head when she saw which one she was pointing at.
"I'm sorry, this cake was made by our boss. It's not for sale. "
"Not for sale?"
"Yes." The staff nodded. "This cake was made by our boss for his girlfriend, so it's not for sale."
Is that so? Su Peizhen nodded. Then she didn't want to buy anything.
She was about to leave, but someone walked out of the kitchen of the shop.
"Pack that cake for her."
Su Peizhen was stunned for a moment. That familiar voice made her think that there was something wrong with her ears.
She turned around and found Ling Jing standing there. He was wearing a chef's hat and white overalls. He was also holding a tray in his hand, which was full of cakes.
He handed the cake to the staff on the side, walked in front of Su Peizhen, and fixed his eyes on her.
