Chapter 1420: I Owe You


Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios


Xia Ling had a headache.


She knew that the man in front of her was not kind and was difficult to deal with. She had been avoiding him all these years lest there be any misunderstandings around them. Her husband was easily jealous, and the man in front of her now looked very happy to make her husband jealous.


She replied cautiously, “Fine. Pei Ziheng, I’m here today for the matter. I would like you to be able to pa.s.s the schedule to Skyart. Of course, we won’t let you give up for free. We’ll give you high compensation.”


“We?” Pei Ziheng’s voice was very gentle.


However, Xia Ling had lived with him for more than ten years, and immediately heard the unpleasantness behind his tone. She resisted the urge to rub her forehead and scolded the man inside for being so stingy and selfish. This jealous vigor was as good as that of her husband. Why didn’t they just get married? “I came here today behind Li Lei’s back.” She simply said what he loved to hear. “I had an argument with him last night, and he was very angry. Just take it as you helping me, okay? I’ll lose my face if I go back empty-handed.”


He smiled, said nothing, and just looked at her.


She was a little nervous. “Pei Ziheng?”


“Call me Ziheng,” he said.


She looked at him angrily. “Don’t go overboard!”


“What do you mean overboard…” He still had a gentle face, and his low voice was scattered in the air, unable to hear his emotions. Opposite the wide desk, the little girl he had once taken care of had grown up. She didn’t even look back at him and had married into a distant place where he couldn’t reach. It was even so difficult to make her call him “Ziheng” like before.


He tilted his body back, put on a business-like att.i.tude, and looked down at her. “What if I don’t agree?”


Xia Ling wanted to pour the tea on his face. This man was obviously making things difficult for her! However, looking at his familiar face, she suddenly felt sour again. “You’re old, and I’m old,” she said softly. “You must be very busy, don’t waste time with me meaninglessly. Take a good rest… isn’t it good to take care of your health?”


His eyes lightened slightly, and he reached over to the place on his face where she had just stopped looking at. “Are my long wrinkles ugly?”


She shook her head subconsciously.


Some men developed all kinds of illnesses that made people disgusted when they were middle-aged, but he didn’t. Even if fine lines appeared on the corners of his eyes, he was still the handsome Pei Ziheng. Gentle and elegant, as stable as a mountain, and the years of hardening only made him more charismatic.


“Yingluo said, many girls in your training camp think you are handsome.” She smiled reluctantly, dragging the topic in another direction. “Find someone who loves you and marry her, Pei Ziheng. You deserve the best.”


He was a little sarcastic. “The best?”


His gentle, dangerous tone silenced her and she didn’t dare to continue.


He looked at her for a moment and restored his gentle and elegant look. “Don’t be nervous, Xiao Ling. I just think it’s funny to hear this from your mouth.” He had already lost the best. Now, he could only have painful heartaches in countless midnight dreams.


He straightened up, preventing her from seeing his loneliness, and reached out to press the secretary’s bell.


Afterward, he said to Xia Ling, “Have a meal with me? Nanny Zhou is old, and our family has changed to a new cook, but the dishes you love to eat have been pa.s.sed on. It still tastes exactly the same as in the past.”


Her heart was more sour, and she wanted to find an excuse to refuse him, but then he said, “After dinner, we will continue to talk about the drama.”


The door opened.


The person who came in was not Pei Ziheng’s secretary, but a man in a clean s.h.i.+rt and long figure. He walked elegantly and dangerously, like a top predator approaching his prey impa.s.sively.


Pei Ziheng was indifferent. “Wei Lingnan.”


“Sorry for interrupting your lunch arrangements.” Wei Lingnan approached them unhurriedly. He said sorry, but he didn’t look the part. He looked down at Xia Ling, showing a polite smile. “Mrs. Li, your husband sent me to pick you up.”


“How does he know—” Xia Ling came to a halt and remembered that there was positioning in her phone, and she shut up.


Wei Lingnan still smiled politely. “Mr. Li is very worried about you. He is here, blocked by Imperial’s people.” It was reasonable to say that the security level of Imperial couldn’t stop Li Lei, but since Pei Ziheng had let Xia Ling come, naturally, he had worked hard to raise the level of security temporarily. It wasn’t difficult to delay him for a few hours.


As a last resort, Li Lei called Wei Lingnan.


With Wei Lingnan’s inhuman skills, breaking into here was an easy feat.


Pei Ziheng stared at him intently. “Mr. Wei really cares about nosy affairs.”


Wei Lingnan met his eyes. “I’m not being nosy. I am just helping my future father-in-law.”


As soon as this sentence came out, it was not only Pei Ziheng, but even Xia Ling couldn’t look at him again. Xia Ling was not happy. “Wei Lingnan, who promised to marry Yingluo to you? She is our baby!”


Wei Lingnan was very calm. “Master Father-in-law said, this time if I bring you back safely, I can marry Yingluo.”


Xia Ling was speechless.


Pei Ziheng looked at Wei Lingnan, and then looked at Xia Ling, and said lightly, “Xiao Ling, you like this kind of man who sells women for glory?”


Xia Ling was again speechless.


She was at a loss now. Really, they were all making a mess! Fortunately, she didn’t forget what she came here to do. She looked up at Pei Ziheng and asked softly, “Give up the schedule to the Yingluo, okay? You said that he’s selling his daughter for glory, so can you not force my daughter into a helpless state?”


Pei Ziheng did not make things difficult this time. He said, “Okay.”


Wei Lingnan looked at him meaningfully.


Pei Ziheng said in a warm voice, “Remember, you owe me one.”


Xia Ling nodded and said, “Thank you.” This man was selfish and petty, so what good would it do her to owe him one? But she couldn’t care about that now. Her baby daughter was more important. As for that favor, she would think about it later.


She said goodbye to Pei Ziheng and walked outside the office.


When Wei Lingnan walked behind her and was about to go out, then he looked back at the man behind. “Pei Ziheng, you are so cunning. You know that even if she doesn’t come to beg you, I will negotiate with you to resolve the movie schedule.”


“I don’t want to negotiate with you.” Pei Ziheng was still very gentle.
