Their tone was very calm.
If Zhao Yue heard that they treated Pei Shi’s company as a rubber ball and were unwilling to accept them, Zhao Yue would definitely be furious and jealous. She wished that Pei Yuan would transfer the company to Pei Si Ling Right now She would be able to live a truly rich lady’s life… …
“Give me the address. I’ll pick you up in the afternoon. I’ll get the secretary to arrange the restaurant, ” Pei Yuan said.
Pei Luo replied with an “okay” and hung up the phone.

In the evening, the sky turned yellow.
A maybach drove over and stopped by the roadside.
A Pale and handsome man sat in the back seat. He was thin and had deep eye sockets.
His eyes were gloomy and calm. It was as if nothing in the world could make his expression change.
“President Pei, do you want to call little President Pei? ” The driver asked.
Pei Yuan said calmly, “go ahead. ”
The driver started to call Pei Luo. Pei Yuan Sat in the car and looked outside. An orange school bus passed by the Maybach and stopped at the entrance of Pei Luo’s neighborhood.
Under the Sun, a very young woman walked out of the neighborhood.
She wore a white one-piece dress. This one-piece dress was tailored to fit her, making her look like an elegant and graceful flower.
Her Long, straight black hair was braided at the side of her forehead and fixed behind her ears. From Pei Yuan’s angle, he could just see her smooth and beautiful side profile.
The woman smiled as she took a boy from the teacher’s hands and hugged him tightly.
From a distance, the way the young woman smiled was extremely familiar.
Pressing down the car window, Pei Yuan fixed his gaze on the mother and son. For a long time, he could not bear to even blink.
Xia Ling had been gone for two years. Every time he dreamed, he would dream of her. However, his memories were Fading Day by day. Gradually, Pei Yuan could not even remember what Xia Ling looked like when she smiled.
This woman..
What was her name!
At all costs, he wanted to keep her by his side. It was for no other reason than that her smile resembled Xia Ling’s profile.
Pei Yuan wished that Xia Ling could live and smile at him again… …
Unfortunately, Xia Ling did not leave any images at all. He could not even remember her face.
Ten minutes later, Pei Luo came out of the neighborhood.
He wore casual clothes and did not seem to have any intention of having a big meal with Pei Yuan.
“Pei Yuan, what’s wrong? ” Pei Luo got into the car and noticed that Pei Yuan was distracted.
Pei Yuan came back to his senses and said to Pei Luo, “nothing. ”
With Pei Yuan’s ability, since he knew that this woman lived in the same neighborhood as Pei Luo, it would be easy for him to find out her identity.
However, a young woman who looked like Xia Ling, even if he knew who she was, what use would it be His Xia Ling would never come back. No matter how similar she was, she was just a substitute.
“I just saw an acquaintance, ” Pei Yuan said in a low voice and smiled bitterly.
Year after year, the only person Pei Yuan could chase now was Xia Ling’s shadow.
In Ginkgo district, Xia Ling and Pei Luo just happened to have a time difference.
She went in, and Pei Luo came out. The two of them were walking on different paths.
Pei Luo followed Pei Yuan’s line of sight and looked into the district. There was nothing in his line of sight. There was only a woman with a child entering the district. This back view was somewhat familiar.
Pei Luo frowned. Vaguely, he felt a slight pain in his heart. He was so depressed that he felt as if he had missed something.

Pei Yuan reported a location and the driver started the car.
Pei Luo had something on his mind, so he did not say anything after getting into the car.
Pei Yuan closed his eyes to rest. The two of them were very quiet in the Maybach.
The car drove out and sat in Pei Yuan’s car. Pei Luo took out his phone and found another contact number.
He lowered his head and stared at the number, somewhat lost in thought.
This number did not have any remarks. It was just a string of numbers.
These numbers had been imprinted in Pei Luo’s heart for four years. Every time he contacted his country, Pei Luo would check with his friends to see if Xia Ling had changed her number.
Fortunately, Xia Ling was a long-term lover. She had never changed her number. Sometimes, when she attended her colleagues’gatherings in the past, Pei Luo’s friends would secretly take a few photos of Xia Ling for her.
It was said that..
There had always been a man named Wang Jia by Xia Ling’s side who had pursued her for many years.
Pei Luo’s slender fingers caressed the edge of the phone. When he thought of the rejection back then, his thin lips pursed slightly.
How could he see her again without batting an eyelid?
Pei Luo thought for a long time, but he still called his friend.
He had returned from abroad. Wasn’t it normal for him to hold a meeting, meet his former friend, and have a meal together?
“Mm, help me call Xia Ling, ” Pei Luo said softly into the phone.
His somewhat awkward and uncomfortable tone sounded like he was treating Xia Ling differently.
Pei Yuan heard this familiar name, and his heart felt as if it had been stabbed by something. He immediately opened his eyes.
When Pei Yuan Heard Xia Ling’s name again, he was stunned at first.
How coincidental was it in this world? The woman that Pei Luo liked and the person that he could not keep in the past actually had the same name.
It could be seen that Pei Luo really cared about her. When Pei Luo finished making the call, Pei Yuan said.
“It hasn’t been settled yet? If the relationship is settled, let Miss Xia come over for a casual meal when she has time. ”
“Yes, if she is willing, I will bring her over to meet you later. ” When Xia Ling was mentioned, Pei Luo’s expression softened.
Pei Yuan observed Pei Luo’s expression and confirmed that Pei Luo really liked Xia ling.
Pei Yuan had been abroad for so many years, but Pei Luo had never had a woman by his side, and Pei Yuan had never intentionally tried to understand her.
But now..
The truth was out.
Pei Yuan endured the discomfort in his heart and chatted with Pei Luo for a long time.
The two of them chatted about some company matters, and they had also expected Pei Si Ling.
All these years, Zhao Yue had raised Pei Si Ling to be an especially arrogant and pampered wife, and she was completely useless.
Although she was a child, she looked older when she was three years old, and her bloodline was Pei Yuan’s. This child did not inherit any of the decisiveness and excellence of the Pei family.
Pei Yuan was willing to give him ten years. If Zhao Yue’s son did not make any progress during these ten years, Pei Yuan would directly hand over the Pei Group to Pei Luo.
The business that the Pei family had managed for three generations should not be buried by an ordinary heir.
“Pei Yuan, have you ever thought that if I really intend to inherit the Pei group, your lover will not be able to sleep well at night! ”
Pei Luo’s handsome face had a playful look on it. He raised his eyes and looked at Pei yuan with his sharp and steady gaze under his long eyelashes.
Zhao Yue thought that she had covered it up well, but her hostility towards him was unreservedly revealed when they met at the airport.
Pei Yuan really did not know how Pei Yuan had taken a liking to this kind of woman. It was not because he had heard about that woman before, but because she had graduated from Cambridge University and was outstanding in all aspects Pei Yuan liked her to the bone?
Throwing away a treasure to pick up a straw?
“She has never slept well. ” Pei Yuan smirked sarcastically.
Seeing that he was not in good health, Zhao Yue had long been thinking about how she would get the board of directors to support her son to ascend to the throne if he went.
“Oh… ” Pei Luo looked at him and did not care anymore.
Pei Luo did not mind being Pei Yuan’s gun. Although he did not care that much, the Pei Corporation had such a large sum of money. If someone gave it to him and asked him to withdraw it ten years later, he would not complain about the amount of money and even push the right of inheritance out.

Xia Ling did not realize that she had already brushed shoulders with Pei Luo.
In her memory, Pei Luo should still be studying abroad and could only come back next year.
She held Xia Yue’s hand and was walking home.
After four years, she still returned to Shanghai after being reborn.
Xia Yue’s health was not very good, and he was brought out of his mother’s womb with a weak illness. Therefore, Xia Ling regularly took Xia Yue to Shanghai First People’s Hospital for a check-up. She clearly did not want to stay in Shanghai, but she still bought a house in Shanghai and settled down.
“Mom, why did you come to pick me up today? Where’s Uncle Wang? ” Walking beside Xia Ling, Xia Yue raised his small face and asked her.
“Your uncle Wang has something to do. He won’t be eating at our house today, so your grandmother asked me to come pick you up. ” Rubbing the boy’s head, Xia Ling smiled and asked him, “why? MOM hasn’t come to pick you up for a long time. Are you not happy to see mom? ”
“I’m happy, a Thousand Times happy, Ten Thousand Times happy! I’m so happy that I’m about to fly. Mommy, little YUE LOVES YOU THE MOST! ” Xia Yue smiled, revealing his cute dimples.
The boy was handsome, and his features were fifty percent similar to Xia Ling’s. The other fifty percent did not look like Xia Ling, but he was still very good-looking. Naturally, he looked like Pei Luo.
His eyes were black and bright, and his hair was fluffy. He was naturally curly.
Although his body was not very good, Xia Yue was very smart. Even if he did not have a father and his body was not very healthy, in kindergarten, only Xia Yue bullied others. No one bullied him.
Compared to his peers, Xia Yue was obviously precocious. His IQ and Eq were also high.
This was probably a child from a single-parent family who was in charge early?
Thinking of this, Xia Ling felt a little guilty towards Xia Yue, but she could only sigh.
She originally had the opportunity to give Xia Yue a complete home, but she gave it up.
“Xiao Yue, where do you want to go on weekends? Amusement Park? Zoo? Mom doesn’t work overtime on weekends. I’ll accompany you. ” Xia Ling asked Xia Yue. She was full of guilt and wanted to compensate Xia Yue.
She was lazy in University and chose to be in finance.
After graduation, she bought a house in Ginkgo community for Xia Yue’s body. Wang Jia chased after her and also settled down in Shanghai.
Unfortunately..
Outside the window, the night gradually enveloped Shanghai.
In the Xia family’s home in Ginkgo community, Xia Ling brought Xia Yue back. As soon as she entered the door, she saw a sturdy figure walking out of the kitchen.
Wang Jia wore gold-rimmed glasses and an apron, looking like a good wife and husband. He was busy preparing the dishes in the kitchen and bringing them to the dining table outside one by one.
Xia Ling heard some movement in the bathroom when she didn’t see Ji Baoyu.
“Big Brother Wang. ” Xia Ling greeted Wang Jia first and put Xia Yue on the ground.
“Uncle Wang, you’re here! ” Xia Yue was overjoyed when he saw Wang Jia. His eyes lit up as he rushed to the dining table and took in the rich taste of the dishes on the table. He gasped exaggeratedly, “This is Great. We can add more food! ”
“LITTLE GREEDY CAT! ” Ji Baoyu came out of the bathroom and said with a smile. She walked in front of Xia Yue and hugged and kissed him.
Xia Yue cried out in JI Baoyu’s arms.
Wang Jia smiled. “Go wash your hands. We’re just waiting for you guys to come back for dinner. CEO Xia… ”
“Okay, thank you, big brother Wang, ” Xia Ling replied. She was embarrassed by Wang Jia’s teasing of CEO Xia.
People always had a heart. Wang Jia had been watching over her for so many years and treated her and Xia Yue very well. Xia Ling saw it all.
However, when it came to feelings, Xia Ling would rather not give anything back if she could not give something back to someone of the same level.
She had a good feeling about Wang Jia, but there was still a layer of separation from liking him.
Ji Baoyu saw that Wang Jia treated Xia Ling well, so he tried to beat around the Bush. He wanted Xia Ling to be with Wang Jia so that he could find a father for Xia Yue.
However, Xia Ling was a stubborn person. She could feel that there was someone waiting for her, and she was also looking for that person.
That person was the one she liked.
If she could not meet him, then she would rather have a lack than a lack.
Wang Jia’s cooking skills were very good. The food he cooked was salty and sweet, and he even specially made the soup that he liked for Xia Yue.
Xia Yue wore a bib and ate until his stomach was full. There was a hint of intelligence on his handsome little face. He looked up at Wang Jia and then at the calm and elegant Xia Ling.
He took the initiative to say to Xia Ling, “mom, we have a parent-child meeting tomorrow. The teacher asked mom and dad to go. Can you come? ”
“Tomorrow? ” Xia Ling frowned.
The teacher did not send a message in Wx. She had arranged to meet with a client tomorrow.
“It’s okay. If lingling doesn’t have time, I’ll go tomorrow. ” Wang Jia saw that Xia Ling was in a difficult position, so he said considerately, “I’ll send Yue off tomorrow. You Go and do your thing. ”
“No need… It’s too troublesome, brother Wang. ” Xia Ling hesitated In the end, she made a decision “I’ll go with Yue tomorrow. I’ve been too busy these past six months, and I haven’t seen his teacher at the kindergarten. When I see his teacher, I’ll have a good chat with them. Brother Wang, you’re also busy with work, so you should focus on yourself… ”
“okay, I got it. ” Wang Jia interrupted Xia Ling, not wanting to hear her next good-guy card. He didn’t know how many good-guy cards he had received from Xia Ling over the years.
Ji Baoyu and Xia Yue were both taken by him, and only Xia Ling was left.
Her heart seemed to be covered with a layer of ice. She had never opened up to any man. Did she have anyone in her heart Or was it Pei Luo?
“Then I’ll pick you and Xiao Yue up tomorrow. I’ll take a detour to send you two off. It’s not convenient for you to drive with your child, ” Wang Jia added.
It would seem strange to refuse again, but Wang Jia lived not close to here. How could Xia Ling have the nerve to ask him to take a detour to send them off so early in the morning?
“Okay, okay. Don’t we still have a spare room? ” It wasn’t like Xiao Jia hadn’t slept in the guest room before. She even had a change of clothes. “As I said, Xiao Jia will make do here for the night. Tomorrow morning, she will send Xia Ling and Xiao Yue off. It will save time and effort! ” Ji Baoyu interjected.
Her arrangement was obviously biased towards Wang Jia. Xia Yue was the same.
Xia Ling knew that Xia Yue also wanted her to be with Wang Jia. He didn’t reject Wang Jia as his father.
However, who she liked and who she lived with was a matter of her life. Without that kind of liking, Xia Ling didn’t want to make do.

Pei Luo was woken up early in the morning by Pei Yuan’s phone call.
Pei Si Ling had a parent-child meeting at the kindergarten today. Zhao Yue had arranged to go out with her friends for a beauty treatment.
Pei Yuan Promised Pei Si Ling but forgot about the matter. Pei Yuan asked the Butler to send Pei Si Ling to the kindergarten. Pei Luo was more troublesome and did not go to the company. Today, Pei Yuan gave him a day off and helped Pei yuan attend the parent-child meeting.
