Chapter 351: Who Exactly Is She

Their breathing started to sync.

When Xia Ling realized that their positions were not quite right, it was too late. She did not dare to move an inch. She batted her long eyelashes like the flapping wings of a butterfly and looked at Big Boss Li with bright eyes. His penetrating gaze, sharp nose, beautifully shaped thin lips, Adam’s apple, collarbone, and chest…

Her face flushed, her body temperature increased, and her heartbeat quickened.

Li Lei lowered his head and lightly kissed her before deepening the kiss.

Her breathing gradually increased. Seeing that he was sneaking his hand into her clothes, she lightly pushed him. “Li Lei, don’t…”

He was spellbound but controlled himself after her rejection. This was the tatami mat in the tea room, and he could not want her in such a cheap location. He let go of her and leaned his forehead against hers. “Let’s continue at home, alright?” He mumbled incoherently.

“Who wants to continue with you?!” Her face turned red.

Li Lei smiled lowly and kissed her again before getting up.

She also quickly sat up and adjusted her messy clothes with her back facing him. With her heart racing so quick, she even buttoned a few buttons wrongly.

Looking at her messy movements, Li Lei smirked behind her.

Even the tips of her ears were turning red.

It was really strange. She did this act between man and woman many times in the past. However, even in the past when she was with Pei Ziheng, she never felt embarrassed. This was not even the first time she would be doing it with Li Lei. At the Li family headquarters, he forced himself on her twice. At that time, she only felt confusion and pain unlike now. Without even looking at his body, just imagining it made her feel uncontrollably embarrassed.

“Let me help you.” Li Lei said in a low and magnetic voice.

Her body stiffened. Flustered, she did not know if she should reject him or not. Li Lei walked behind her while she was in a daze and put his arms around her body to help her with her buttons one by one. His chest rested on her back, and he breathed deeply beside her ear. The heat as his fingers brushed against her clothes could almost scorch her. Xia Ling wanted him to move aside a little but did not dare to make a sound as she was afraid that her voice would be soft and weak and he would laugh at her again.

She was suffering in his presence.

Xia Ling never felt that time passed so slowly before. Feeling that a short few minutes felt like a century, she was extremely thankful when he was finished with her buttons. When he let go of her, she drew a long breath and thanked the heavens that it was finally over. However, she also felt secretly disappointed and empty as if she missed his teasing and embrace.

Xia Ling, you are really helpless.

She chastised herself fiercely in her heart.

However, Big Boss Li still teased her, “Nervous? There’s nothing to be scared about. In the future, I can help you put on your clothes every day.” What he implied using his husky voice was too obvious. The blood rushed up to her cheeks again.

“Who wants you to help them wear their clothes every day!” She retorted.

“Then I will help you take off your clothes every day.” Big Boss laughed with bad intentions.

Xia Ling felt thoroughly unwell…

Xia Ling put on her coat, scarf, and sunglasses and left the tea room first. Li Lei was afraid that there would be paparazzi outside, so he stayed for an hour more before leaving through the backdoor.

When she reached home at the night, Xia Ling tossed and turned on the bed but was unable to fall asleep. In her mind, all she could think about was Big Boss Li’s handsome face, and his warm kiss and fingers…

She felt that she had gone crazy. How could someone who lived for two lives act like a young teenage girl? She rolled on the duvet for a long time before crawling up from the bed and walking to the room next door to disturb Luo Luo.

“What do you think is the problem if I keep thinking about someone and can’t sleep?”

Luo Luo was in a trance-like state after being jolted awake by her and wanted to throw her roommate out. She closed her eyes and covered herself with her pillow. “It’s because of a man, right? You’re just feeling lonely. Just look for someone to sleep with and you’ll be fine…”

Xia Ling was baffled and could not believe that Luo Luo would say something like that. “You, you, you… Are you really Luo Luo?”

“Oh my god, don’t be noisy…” Luo Luo was having a good dream, so she shut her eyes as if she were ignoring a housefly. “My dream man… wait for me…”

Xia Ling was speechless.

She quietly observed as a trail of saliva formed at the corner of her mouth. This girl was no longer the innocent and cute girl from her training days. She had grown up and was having dreams about love.

Defeated, Xia Ling left Luo Luo who was sleeping like a dead pig and returned to her room to stare into space.

On the other hand, Li Lei was in the study room of his apartment.

The mailbox on his computer was shining. Clicking on it, he saw that it was the old Chinese character analysis on Xia Ling’s amulet. Sure enough, one of them was his birth chart, but the other made his heart skip a beat.

The age was not right.

His Xiao Ling was only eighteen years old.

According to her innocent and straightforward personality, she was really like a young girl who had not experienced much and had not been polluted by the evil of the adult world. She was still at the edge of innocence and was not mature yet.

However, the age of her birth chart was twice her age.

This was really unimaginable to him.

Even if she had plastic surgery or injected herself with drugs to look young, it was impossible to fake her young personality. How could someone who had lived for so long maintain such a childish personality?

Wait… There was a woman.

“Ye Xingling” was very similar to her, and her age was the same as hers.

The deceased Diva, Xia Ling.

Did that mean that Ye Xingling was Xia Ling?!

Li Lei was scared by his own thought and immediately went to search for Xia Ling’s birth details. After an investigation, the result made him breathe a sigh of relief. It was great, their birth charts did not match at all.

Thinking about it, it made sense. The Diva Xia Ling was already dead. How could she be reborn?

Even Preceptor Xia was unable to control life and death.

Li Lei poured himself a glass of wine to calm down. He guessed that perhaps Xiao Ling had plastic surgery in the past to look like Ye Xingling, or maybe she naturally looked young. Was she that old? No, it did not matter. It would just be a May-December romance. He would only love her forever.

Li Lei’s surging heart forgot one thing—

Ye Xingling’s birthday could be faked, so couldn’t Xia Ling’s birthday be faked too?

Xia Ling was originally an orphan and never knew her real birthday. The birthday she announced to the public was actually the day that Pei Ziheng adopted her. She called that day the “day of redemption.” Her love with Pei Ziheng was too secretive, and as for the secret regarding her birthday, perhaps only a few close family members in the Pei family knew about it. As for the rest of the world? They all thought that the information published on official documents was real.

“As long as you aren’t Xia Ling, it doesn’t matter who you are…” Li Lei muttered.

Xia Ling and Pei Ziheng had an explosive love affair. If she were really Xia Ling, perhaps he was already out before this battle of love even started.

He would surely not accept this ending.
