In the spring, Xia Ling worked in a company. Her investment was a side business, and her main business was to work.
Although her assets were tens of millions, her life still looked no different from that of an ordinary office worker. Other than the usual food and drinks, she used good quality ones.
Xia Ling did not expect to see Pei Luo again.
Pei Luo was going abroad, and everything had been settled. There was only half a month left before he set off, so Pei Luo came to see Xia Ling for the last time.
Pei Luo was wearing a white t-shirt. His tall figure and beautiful side profile made him look like a prince from a Manga.
“Pei Luo? ” Xia Ling stopped in her tracks, her heart on high alert.
She was prepared for the worst. He knew of Xia Yue’s existence, and was prepared to hold her accountable.
“Xia Ling. ” Pei Luo looked at the girl in front of him.
Her long hair was tied into a bun, and the girl looked much more mature and elegant.
It could be seen that after leaving the training institution, Xia Ling worked in this company. She grew up very quickly, and her days were very good.
He had not seen her for almost a year, and her cheeks seemed to have become a little rounder.
The light in his eyes was too gentle, and Xia Ling turned her face away uncomfortably.
“What’s the matter? ”
The girl’s uneasiness made Pei Luo sober up.
“It’s something. Is it convenient for us to talk? How about the milk tea shop? ”
Following Pei Luo’s line of sight, Xia Ling saw a coffee shop with a good style. The light in the coffee shop was beige, and it looked warm and natural.
It was fine to chat with Pei Luo for a while, but saying too much would lead to failure.
In front of him, Xia Ling said too much, and it would be easy for him to find out that she had become his mother.
Looking at her watch, Xia Ling shook her head at Pei Luo and continued to reject him.
“To be honest, it’s not very convenient. My mother is waiting for me at home. If there’s anything, just say it. ”
“Even ten minutes? ” Pei Luo did not expect Xia Ling to be so resolute. “At least, we’re friends, right? ”
Xia Ling curled her lips. “maybe. ”
Her tone was distant, and Pei Luo felt as if his heart had been pricked by a needle. It hurt.
Pei Luo pursed his lips, took out a piece of paper from his bag, and handed it to Xia Ling.
Xia Ling was unwilling to go to the coffee shop, so he could only cut to the chase.
“I’m going overseas. If you don’t have a boyfriend or someone you like when I come back from abroad, I hope to get a chance to pursue you and give us a chance to be together. Is that okay? Xia Ling, I like you. ”
Xia Ling’s gaze fell on the piece of paper first, then she looked up at Pei Luo.
She could guess Pei Luo’s motive.
He had always been a proud person. Even without the Pei family, if he did not have enough confidence to give her a carefree future, he would not have come looking for her.
He was a good man, but unfortunately, with Pei Yuan around, Xia Ling would never consider him.

The admission notice, in English, was from Cambridge University.
This notice looked very familiar. Xia Ling’s lips held a sincere smile.
“congratulations. ” She looked at him. “I wish you a bright future and a limitless future. ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Ling took two steps back, turned around, and walked towards her home from Pei Luo’s side.
It was as if she did not hear Pei Luo’s confession at all. Her expression was calm and calm.
“WAIT! ” Pei Luo grabbed Xia Ling’s wrist. “Xia Ling, I didn’t come here to ask for your blessing. What about the other half of what you said just now? You can’t pretend that you didn’t hear anything. ”
“What did you say? ”XiaaLingg raised her eyebrows and looked atPeiiLuoo.
Her beautiful and beautiful face was directly reflected in Pei Luo’s eyes under the street lamp.
That smile on Xia Ling’s face was raised as she stared at Pei Luo. The corners of her lips were curved, but the smile did not enter her eyes at all.
“Pei Luo, we were originally not from the same world. We weren’t before, we aren’t now, and in the future… we are definitely not. ”
“You have a great life, and I am just mud on the ground. Other than this face, I can still be seen. What other advantages do you think I have? Even when I do things, I am reckless. It is useless to regret now. What else do you want me to do? ”
Pei Luo’s expression became a little stubborn.
He had restrained his feelings. Because his family had been poor since he was young, he had used alienation to cover up his self-esteem and used everything to prove his pride.
But now, today was different from the past. He had suddenly gotten everything he wanted. Pei Luo’s feet were floating, and his heart was also floating.
A rush of impetuousness supported him to look for Xia Ling, but he did not expect that he would be splashed with such a cold bucket of water by Xia Ling.
“I understand. ” Pei Luo withdrew his hand, and his expression darkened.
“although you don’t believe it, I still want to say, Xia Ling, I like you. You are my woman, and I want to be responsible for you. Even though… you don’t seem to need it. ”
Xia Ling looked at him indifferently.
“I believe what you said is true, but Pei Luo, if I didn’t have this face, or if you didn’t get into Cambridge University today, would you still say such things to me like you’re saying now? ”
“Even though I’ve done something wrong, I will never be anyone’s subordinate in my life, whether it’s you or anyone else. I won’t add anything to your or anyone else’s success. Do you understand? ”
The girl’s clear eyes looked at Pei Luo, as if she had seen through all the lightness and impetuousness in his heart.
Pei Luo suddenly became clear-headed, as if he had just woken up from a dream.
He looked at Xia Ling and gently clenched his hands.
The Xia Ling in his heart and the Xia Ling in front of him were clearly different.
The girl who was once in a sorry state did not need anyone to be her salvation now.
“I’m sorry. ”
“Okay. ” Xia Ling nodded, accepting Pei Luo’s apology.
She said again, “I hope that we can be safe and not disturb each other’s lives anymore, can we, Pei Luo? ”
“Okay. ” Pei Luo looked at her deeply.
He took Xia Ling’s words as a cold gesture to draw a clear line between them.
“Is it because of that Wang Jia? ” Pei Luo could not help but ask in the end.
Everyone was saying that Xia Ling was Wang Jia’s girlfriend. Otherwise, why would Wang Jia always stay by Xia Ling’s side?
Hearing his words, Xia Ling stopped in her tracks. She thought for a moment and answered him with certainty.
“Yes, he doesn’t want me to have anything to do with you anymore. ”
Her tone was calm.
When Pei Luo heard her answer, he fell silent and said.
“Wait for me, I won’t give up. ”
Xia Ling turned around and left Pei Luo behind her.
Clean it up, don’t contact her again, and let her raise Xia Yue properly.
Xia Ling turned around the intersection, and the gaze that had been watching her from behind finally disappeared.
Before she could heave a sigh of relief, Xia Ling saw another figure at the intersection. It was Wang Jia who had come to pick her up.
The man with his back against the wall held a cigarette in his hand and smiled at her.
“Girl, tell me, do you think I still have a chance? ”
Looking at him, Xia Ling slowly shook her head.

Another wave of time passed, and four years passed.
In these four years, Pei Luo completed his studies at Cambridge University.
Xia Ling went around in circles, but she still returned to Shanghai, the city that had flooded her once.
Under the endless blue sky, a plane circled and landed in Shanghai airport.
Pei Luo, who was dragging his luggage, wearing a casual suit and a baseball cap, got off the plane. In these four years, he rarely returned to z country, because there were people here that he did not dare to meet.
When Pei Luo got off the plane, a woman wearing a pure white body-fitting dress came to pick him up with a smile.
“Miss Zhao. ” Pei Luo came out from the VIP tunnel. The people around him were scattered and very quiet.
“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and help second young master with his luggage. ” Zhao Yue looked to the side and said unhappily. Then, she turned around and looked at Pei Luo. Zhao Yue smiled again.
This change of attitude was faster than flipping a book. Over the years, Pei Luo had gotten used to Zhao Yue’s style.
“Well, your brother has been waiting at home. Is His company busy? He could only arrange for me to pick you up. Let’s go back now. ”
“Okay. ” Pei Luo looked at her and did not say much.
According to Pei Yuan’s way of doing things, he knew that Zhao Yue did not get along with him. It was impossible for him to arrange for Zhao Yue to pick him up.
“Pei Luo, I heard that you have already graduated. What are your plans for coming back this time? Are you planning to stay in Shanghai or return to province a? ” After getting into the car, Zhao Yue could not wait to ask Pei Luo for information.
