Chapter 1085 - Dating Back in the Country
A Star Reborn: The Queen's Return
Xia Ling was bored in her room and her heart was in a mess.
The scene in the bathroom that night, as well as the scene of Pei Ziheng and the woman in the morning, lingered in front of her as if her eyes had been cursed and she had no choice but to face it.
What happened to her?
She remembered the womanâs charming eyes and her fingers that were painted red as she smiled and said to her, âA good girl shouldnât ask.â But she didnât want to be a good girl, she only wanted...
What did she want? She didnât know either.
Feeling even more confused, she fell asleep in the luxurious bed of the presidential suite and dreamed. In her dream, she became the woman, wearing a silky nightdress that revealed her curves. With him, they...
She screamed and woke up. She was scared by herself and looked up at the mirror with a flustered face.
She didnât dare sleep anymore. How could she have such a shameless dream? Over the years, Brother Pei had been the one who raised them and cured her Sisterâs illness. He was their benefactor, the person she was most grateful to and respected most. She shouldnât use such a dirty mind to yearn for him, she couldnât even think of it.
She slapped her face fiercely as if pushing out all the thoughts she shouldnât have.
She took out the scores from the Training Camp and forced herself to concentrate on practicing the songs. But the songs about love made her feel like there were ants in her pants. She was capricious and halfway through her practicing, she threw away the score.
There was a knock on the door.
She held her breath at once and her heart thumped uncontrollably. Who would be here? Could it be him? After all these days of chaos, was he finally willing to find her and pacify her? She opened her mouth with difficulty and heard her own dry voice asking, âWho is it?â
A soft female voice came from outside. âItâs me, Sister.â
Her heartbeat returned to normal but felt empty. She then walked over to open the door absent-mindedly.
Outside the entrance, Xia Yu looked at her in shock. âWhat happened, Sister? Whyâs your expression so bad?â
She didnât have the strength to explain and just said, âIs there something, Xiao Yu?â
Xia Yu shook the takeaway in her hand and smiled at her intimately. âI sneaked out today and bought you delicious food. Sister, you must keep it a secret for me and donât tell others,â she said and quietly squeezed in through the door. She closed it and opened the takeaway in the small meeting area inside the suite.
Xia Ling walked over and sat down too. She was still very happy to have someone to talk to and distract her. âWhy did you suddenly think of sneaking out?â She helped Xia Yu open the takeaway and the aroma of the dessert wafted out.
âI...â Xia Yu hesitated before saying, âSister, donât be angry.â
âWhy would I be angry?â
âI, I went to follow Brother Ziheng,â Xia Yu said and looked at her apprehensively. âI saw that you were so upset this morning and went to find Brother Ziheng to ask him to pacify you. But he said he didnât have time and also wouldnât be coming back tonight. I heard him say to Chu Chen that heâs going to some Blue Dream Club tonight. I was curious about what kind of place it was and sneaked out.â
Xia Ling widened her eyes. âYou sneaked out alone? Itâs dangerous outside!â
âSister, Iâm so big already, itâs okay,â Xia Yu said. âI was just angry. What else is more important than you? He obviously knew that you were upset, but he still left you alone in the hotel!â
âThere are so many things that are more important than me.â Xia Ling smiled a little bleakly and her butterfly-like eyelashes drooped down. âHeâs very busy at work and doesnât have time to take care of me. I... I donât want to cause trouble for him. Xiao Yu, donât run around in the future anymore. I only have you, what would I do if something happens to you?â
âIâm really fine. I heard Paris is very safe, really.â Xia Yu held her hand in reassurance and was a little indignant. âTsk, Sister, Brother Ziheng isnât even busy with work. I saw it with my own eyes, Brother Ziheng embraced a very beautiful girl and entered. He even kissed her!â
Xia Lingâs heart jumped wildly and uncontrollably, the blood draining from her face. âReally?â
âItâs true!â Xia Yu looked at her seriously. âBut, Sister, you mustnât tell anyone what I told you. Whether itâs to Brother Ziheng or to anyone else, you mustnât say even a single word! If Brother Ziheng finds out I followed him, Iâll definitely die very badly!â
âOkay, I definitely wonât say it.â
âYou swear?â
âI swear, how could I harm you?â Xia Ling said, her expression still bad. âSo, he clearly knew that I was very sad, but would rather go embrace another girl than to come back and pacify me?â
Xia Yu gently held her shoulder and said quietly, âAfter all, youâre only his sister. He still has his own life. After he marries a wife, he would probably forget all about you. Sister, you shouldnât rely so much on him like when you were young. Donât think of letting him pacify you over everything, you must learn to be independent, understand?â
Xia Ling was very upset. A long time passed before she nodded.
Xia Yuâs face showed a smile of satisfaction. âGo back to China.â
âWhat?â
âI said, go back to China.â Xia Yu looked at her seriously. âIâm very happy you came to Paris to accompany me, but Iâm also very upset to see you in this state. Sister, I know you donât have the mood to play now, and youâll only be more and more unhappy the longer you stay here. Why donât you go back to China and leave Brother Ziheng for a while? You can calm down and think about how to get along with him in the future. Perhaps...â
Suddenly showing a playful smile, she continued, âNow that itâs summer vacation, you may even find a good relationship when youâre back in China. There are so many boys chasing you in the Training Camp, itâll be good to date someone of the same age.â
âI donât want to date,â Xia Ling said.
Xia Yu said, âYouâre so beautiful and youâre already sixteen. Isnât it normal to fall in love? And how could it be easy to debut? Just give it a try, I heard that love can make people forget a lot of troubles.â
Xia Ling was moved by her words. She could forget her troubles?
Could she forget him...
Unexpectedly, his God-like, handsome face appeared in her mind.
Her heart began to hurt again, and she forced herself not to think about it. She said to her sister, âOkay, Iâll go back to China.â
Xia Yu said, âThatâs right. Iâll help you plan it well. Youâll go back secretly.â
âSecretly?â Xia Ling said. âWhy? I could just tell Brother Pei directly that I want to go back to China and get him to send me back.â
âAre you sure heâll agree to it?â Xia Yu said quietly. âThe last time you wanted to change rooms with me, he still forced you to live next to him. If you tell him, you might not be able to get away. You might even be punished by him, Sister. Are you willing to do that?â
