Chapter 816: CHAPTER 002: “This woman has a bad temper.”
Su Peizhen’s face was cold as she looked at the man lying on the bed in her apartment.
The cell phone screen in her palm lit up. 1103 numbers could be dialed to call the police as soon as she pressed it with her fingertips.
However, her fingertips did not move for a long time. She only glanced at the man again. Her jaw was still in pain. There seemed to be some bruising where she bumped into him just now.
She rubbed her jaw and looked at her own body. The fact that she was stained with the man’s blood made her very unhappy.
She put away her phone, stood up, and walked to the bedside to stand still.
The man was lying flat on the bed, covered in blood. Not only was there blood on his body, but there was also blood on his face. Her facial features were stained with blood, so her face could not be seen clearly.
She only remembered that when the car lights flashed just now, the man’s pair of Bright Phoenix eyes. He looked very evil.
Su Peizhen would never do such a thing as serving others. Regardless of whether it was Christmas or not, she called her usual hourly worker and asked him to come over.
This apartment was very close to Xiang Caiping’s department store. If she worked late sometimes, she would come here to sleep.
In fact, she had stayed here for quite a few months. It was because of Xiang caiping’s guilty eyes and pitiful attitude that she felt uncomfortable staying in that home.
She might as well avoid it. She knew that her attitude was not good for Xiang caiping, but there were some things that she could not control.
On this point, she really missed Li Qianxue. With Li Qianxue’s personality, no matter what her children did, her pride and principles would not make her sympathize with anyone.
Xiao Zhao, a part-time worker, lived far away from here and soon arrived. When she arrived, Su Peizhen had just showered. Her long, slightly wet hair barely covered her bathrobe.
Xiao Zhao had helped many maids in the family, but there were not many who looked as beautiful as Su Peizhen.
As a woman, she felt that it was a little too much. Su Peizhen didn’t seem to notice Xiao Zhao’s gaze. She looked in the direction of the bed.
“Clean her up and help me change the sheets on the bed.”
Xiao Zhao was from a foreign land, so she was very honest. She didn’t ask any questions and immediately started to change the clothes of the man on the bed.
The blood on Xiao Zhao’s body was terrifying. She endured her fear and tidied up the man’s body.
However —
“Miss Su, this person’s body is injured. It seems to be very serious,”Xiao Zhao added as she spoke, “He’s still bleeding.”
Su Peizhen, who was reading the documents at the side, stood up when she heard her words.
The blood on the man’s body was mostly cleaned up, so it was obvious that he had a cut on his chest.
She knew that the man was injured, but she didn’t expect him to be so severely injured.
If they didn’t send him to the hospital, he might really die.
“Miss Su?”Xiao Zhao’s voice brought her back to her senses. “There’s a medicine box outside. You can take care of it as you wish.”
“Miss Su.”Xiao Zhao’s eyes widened in horror. “This man is so seriously injured. Do We really not need to send him to the hospital?”
“No need.”Su Peizhen’s voice was very cold. “I think he’s very lucky. He won’t die.”
“…”Xiao Zhao helplessly went to get the first aid kit. She wanted to ask this man what his relationship was with Su Peizhen. However, seeing Su Peizhen’s cold attitude, she did not dare to ask.
As a housekeeper, Xiao Zhao had learned how to treat and bandage a simple wound.
She took out the medicine box and helped the man treat his wound. In the end, she wiped all the blood off the man’s body.
Other than his pants, he had taken off the rest of his clothes. She was glad to find that the only place where the man was injured was the knife on his chest.
She did not know how it was done. The knife was not deep, but why was there so much blood on the man’s body?
Xiao Zhao finally had time to look at the man’s face after she finally finished dealing with it.
“Hey, this gentleman is so handsome.”
Su Peizhen was looking at the documents and didn’t seem to hear this sentence. Xiao Zhao realized that she had misspoken. After packing up, she planned to leave.
“I will pay you double this month’s salary. Don’t tell my mother about what happened today.”
When she reached the door, she heard Su Peizhen’s voice. She was still reading the documents, as if she didn’t care about the things around her.
Xiao Zhao responded and left. After she left, Su Peizhen put the documents aside.
Xiang caiping had found this part-time worker for her. When she lived here, Xiao Zhao would come over to help clean up and cook. She didn’t want her to talk nonsense in front of Xiang caiping.
Was He very handsome?
Su Peizhen looked in the direction of the bed. The Man’s eyes were tightly closed, and his face was a little pale due to excessive blood loss. Although his eyes were closed, she still remembered the expression on his face the moment he opened his eyes in the alley.
Was he handsome?
She could barely see him. After all, there was no lack of outstanding-looking men around her.
This was a two-bedroom apartment. One was her master bedroom, and the other was her study.
There was a bed in the study prepared for Xiang caiping. She was afraid that she would come over occasionally. However, Xiang caiping seemed to know that she was not used to her being too close to her, so she seldom came to the apartment.
Su Peizhen placed the man on the bed in the study, which was also the reason why she had to deal with the documents here.
Tomorrow was her birthday, so she did not plan to enter the company. Because Xiang caiping would definitely celebrate with her. Today, she would first deal with the documents that she could handle.
Closing the documents, Su Peizhen was inexplicably annoyed. It had been two years since her birthday. In her eyes, it was just a joke.
Shaking off those bad feelings, Su Peizhen put away the documents and closed her notebook.
She got up and left the room. As for the man on the bed?
Ha. He was lucky to be alive. If he really died here, she wouldn’t be afraid.
..
Ling Jing woke up in the faint aroma of food. The wound on his chest reminded him of what happened last night.
Those people couldn’t wait to attack him. The pain on his chest when he got up made his expression change. He didn’t expect that person to betray him.
It didn’t feel good to be betrayed by someone he trusted. Ling Jing clenched his fists and waited for the pain to pass.
Taking the time to relieve the pain, he opened his eyes and looked at the current environment. It wasn’t a small room. It seemed to be a study room.
He looked down, he was not wearing any clothes. His bare upper body could see that his wound had been treated by someone.
The bandage on the wound was a little ugly. He placed his hand on his chest.
He closed his eyes, thinking that after lying down for a while, the smell of the food would become more obvious.
His body’s reaction was uncontrollable. He found that he was hungry.
He got up, but he could not find his clothes, so he probably could not wear them. Fortunately, the other party left his pants behind.
He left the study and walked out. In the kitchen, the morning light was dyed with a layer of gold. An extremely beautiful figure walked in leisurely.
December 26th, Su Peizhen’s birthday.
She was in the kitchen, making breakfast for herself. She didn’t know how to do it before. After going to prison, she learned some simple cooking.
The easiest thing was to make a sandwich. She put the bread in the toaster and heated a glass of milk for herself in the microwave.
She used to like coffee, but after she went to prison, she started to like drinking milk. Simple, pure, and healthy.
The sandwich wasn’t complicated, and she was quick. After she made it, she cut it up. She put it on the plate, took out the milk, and when she turned around, she saw the man leaning against the kitchen door.
The man was only wearing a pair of black boxers, but his casual attitude made it seem like he was attending a dinner party in a suit.
Meeting the man’s beautiful and narrow phoenix eyes, Su Peizhen walked past him expressionlessly with the milk in her hand and directly walked to the dining table outside.
When she passed Ling Jing, she didn’t stop. She put the sandwich and the milk on the table and pulled out a chair to sit down.
Even though she was only wearing a bathrobe, her actions were still elegant.
She took a sip of the milk and glanced at the man in front of her. She tilted her face slightly.
“If you’re done, get lost. The door is over there.”
Ling Jing stared at her face for a while. He moved to the dining table and put his hand on the edge of the table.
“Did You Save Me Yesterday?”
“No.”Su Peizhen’s expression didn’t change. There was a circle of milk stains at the corner of her mouth. Ling Jing looked at the circle of marks and felt his throat tighten.
He looked away and his expression became a little light again.
“No?”Ling Jing lowered his head and looked at the bandage on his chest.
Su Peizhen raised her eyebrows and put down the milk. She took a tissue from the table and wiped her lips.
“You insisted on getting into my car yesterday, and I didn’t help you bandage your wound. So I didn’t save you.”
Ling Jing remembered that this woman was going to leave after kicking him a few times yesterday. At that time, he didn’t know what had happened. He used his last bit of strength to follow the woman and then got into her car.
“Beauty, let me borrow your car to hide.”
His wound was bleeding. He should go to the hospital. But the target was too big, so he could only follow the woman. And he bet that the woman wouldn’t call the police.
It turned out that he was right.
All his strength was used up after he entered the door. After all, he was seriously injured.
But —
“Even if you didn’t save me, you took me in, so I naturally have to repay you.”
As Ling Jing spoke, he sat down next to her and reached out to grab a sandwich.
The back of his hand was slapped by someone, and he turned around to meet Su Peizhen’s somewhat cold gaze. “Get out of here now. Consider it repayment.”
Ling Jing withdrew his hand and thought of the few kicks this woman had given him yesterday.
TSK, not only was this woman ruthless, she also had a bad temper.
“Don’t make me say it a second time. Get Out.”
Just as Ling Jing was about to speak, Su Peizhen’s cell phone rang. Her cell phone was placed on the coffee table in the living room.
The ringtone made her expression change slightly, but she still quickly got up to pick up the phone.
Who would call her at this time besides Xiang caiping?
“Peizhen, where are you?”Xiang caiping’s voice was a little worried. “Why didn’t You Come Back All Night? It’s your birthday today, so don’t go to the company. I cooked noodles for you this morning, but you weren’t there –”
That somewhat plaintive tone made Su Peizhen feel a huge pressure again. She paused, she tried to make her voice sound more normal. “I went out for a gathering with my friends yesterday. It was too late, so I stayed over at Rongyuan.”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. You can stay wherever you like. But it’s your birthday today, can you come back for dinner?”
“I’ll be back.”Su Peizhen had a headache. She really wanted to tell Xiang caiping that she was not a porcelain doll and that she did not need to speak to her in such a careful manner.
However, Xiang caiping’s overly excited tone made her unable to say the rest of her words.
“Okay, okay. What else do you want to eat? I’ll make it for you. I’ll go buy some groceries now. Oh right, I’ve even prepared a birthday present for you. You –”
Xiang caiping did not hear Su Peizhen’s reaction. “Then, are you coming back for lunch?”
“Yes.”
“Okay, okay, okay. Then I’ll wait for you.”Xiang caiping was immediately happy when she heard that her daughter was willing to come back.
That excited mood made Su Peizhen feel a little helpless, but also a little sad. After hanging up the phone, she turned around and found that the man was sitting at the dining table. The breakfast that she had prepared for herself just now had already been finished by the man.
Not only did he finish the sandwich on the plate, but he also finished the bottle of milk that she had taken two sips of.
However, the man did not realize what he had done at all. He looked at Su Peizhen, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. That pair of long and narrow phoenix eyes looked even more devilish than last night.
“The sandwich is not bad, but the portion is a little small. I’m not full yet. Beauty, be a good person to the end. Give me another one.”
Su Peizhen tightened her grip on her phone, meeting the man’s eyes with a hint of provocation and interest.
She put her phone aside, walked to the dining table, picked up the plate and cup, and threw them directly into the trash can.
Her actions were quick and clean. After throwing them out, she ran to the kitchen to wash her hands, without any intention of making another one.
Making breakfast depended on one’s mood, even if it was as simple as a sandwich.
She was not in the mood now. She took out a tissue and wiped her hands clean. She came out and glanced at the man.
“Either you get out now, or I’ll call the police and ask them to chase you out. Choose one.”
Ling Jing touched his chin. When he met the coldness in Su Peizhen’s eyes, he clicked his tongue.
“What if I don’t choose either of them?”
Su Peizhen looked at the scoundrel on the man’s face and suddenly took a few steps forward. She raised her hand and directly attacked the man’s chest.
There was still the injury from yesterday. Ling Jing wasn’t prepared for this. It hurt so much that his body curled up and he took a step back.
“You –”
K. He knew that this woman was ruthless yesterday, but he didn’t expect her to be so ruthless.
Although SU Peizhen was wearing a bathrobe, her movements were not slow at all. Seeing that the man was in pain, not only did she not stop, but she also gave him another punch.
After this punch, Ling Jing, who didn’t expect him to do it again, was in so much pain that he was sweating. Not only did she curl up, but she also fell to the ground and looked at her in pain.
It was as if she couldn’t believe that Su Peizhen could be so ruthless.
Su Peizhen retracted her hand and her gaze was cold. “I’ll say it one more time. Get lost.”
After saying this, she turned around and returned to her room. Ten minutes later, she came out. She had already changed into a new set of clothes.
The red woolen coat made her look even more cold and elegant. She picked up her phone from the coffee table and put it into her bag. She did not even look at the man lying on the ground.
“If you don’t leave, I don’t mind letting your wound open again.”
After saying that, the door opened and closed with a bang.
After she left, Ling Jing propped himself up. But he looked at the blood oozing out of his chest. There was no longer the pretense in his eyes.
She was really a heartless woman. Holding his heart, Ling Jing raised his wrist and pressed on his watch a few times.
Not long after, someone came over.
“Young Master.”When the person saw the wound on Ling Jing’s body, his eyes widened. “I looked for young master for a whole night yesterday. Young Master, who hurt you? Should we go back to the Residence Now?”
“No need.”Ling Jing’s wound was actually very painful. Before, the wound was just casually bandaged to stop the bleeding. “Help me treat my wound. Then we can go.”
“But –”
“No buts.”Ling Jing half-closed his eyes. “After I’m done, I won’t go back to the residence for the time being. You Go back first.”
“Young Master?”
“Those people want me to die so obviously. Pretend that I’m still not here and continue to look for me. After a few days, those people will naturally be unable to restrain themselves. I’d like to see how many rats there are in the residence.”
“Yes.”The person did not speak anymore and started to treat Ling Jing’s wound.
“Young master, the wound is a little deep. If you don’t suture it, I’m afraid it won’t work. But there is no anesthetic here –“he came in a hurry just now and was afraid of arousing suspicion, so he forgot to bring anesthetic.
“It’s okay.”Ling Jing gritted his teeth and endured the pain. “Just suture it like this.”
“Yes.”
Ling Jing lay there with his eyes closed, enduring the pain of the sew. In his mind, he thought of the red figure that drifted away.
It really was the most poisonous woman’s heart.
..
Su Peizhen went straight back to the villa she lived in with Xiang caiping. This villa was really small in terms of the size of the Su family in the past.
But now there were only the two of them, so it was suitable.
After entering the door, when Xiang caiping saw that she had come, her eyes lit up. “I was thinking of going to buy groceries. You came back. Have you eaten breakfast?”
“No.”
“Then, I’ll go and make it for you.”Xiang caiping headed towards the kitchen. Su Peizhen’s lips moved. “Didn’t you say that you would cook noodles for me this morning? I’ll just eat the noodles.”
“It’s been there for a long time. It’s no longer delicious. I’ll make another serving for you.”
Su Peizhen couldn’t stop her. She watched Xiang caiping go to the kitchen. She massaged her temples with a headache.
She had been out of prison for a few months, but she still couldn’t find the right way to get along with Xiang caiping.
The noodles were quickly cooked. Xiang caiping brought them out and placed them on the dining table.
“Longevity noodles. I rolled them early in the morning. Try it according to Lin city’s method.”
“Okay.”Su Peizhen sat down in front of the dining table. When she met Xiang Caiping’s expectant gaze, she couldn’t bear it. “Thank you, Mom.”
“Silly Child, why are you thanking me?”
Because of her thanks, Xiang caiping’s expression became happy again.
The feeling of powerlessness surged up, and Su Peizhen could only bury her head into eating the noodles.
The taste was not bad. It was indeed cooked according to the habits of the people of Lin City. She was actually very picky in the past. She didn’t eat many things.
Li Qianxue used to dote on her the most. As long as she frowned, she would change the chef for her. She used to think that she would never be able to endure hardship in her life.
However, after being in prison for nearly two years, she realized that there was nothing that could not be eaten.
Xiang caiping looked at Su Peizhen sitting opposite her. Her heart felt faint and slightly painful.
She still remembered how Su Peizhen used to look like. Looking at her current appearance, as a mother, other than feeling sorry for her, she also felt sorry for her.
“Peizhen, today is your birthday. Let’s go out and play. Look, the weather is not bad. It’s not snowing either.”
“Okay.”
Su Peizhen put down the bowl and did not object. “Mom, next time when it comes to cooking, just let Auntie Zhang do it. When it comes to buying groceries, just give her a call and someone will deliver them to your door.”
“It’s okay. I’ll take this opportunity to walk around.”
Xiang caiping had not gone out with Su Peizhen since she came back. “Where are we going today? Why Don’t We Go Hiking? I think the weather is good too. Or do you have any place you want to go?”
Su Peizhen was very tired from her overly flattering and cautious attitude. She could not say anything more. “Then let’s go hiking. When you come back, just eat outside. There’s no need to cook.”
“AH? Okay.”Xiang caiping was a little disappointed. She wanted to do more for her daughter, but she realized that nothing seemed right.
That expression made Su Peizhen’s head hurt even more.
“Mom, we’re mother and daughter. We Don’t care about these things. It’s good enough to eat outside.”
“Okay. Okay.”Xiang caiping nodded. There was a hint of emotion in her eyes. Just as she wanted to say something, Nanny Xiao Ye came in with a package in her hand.
“Sister Su, this is your package.”
“Mine?”Su Peizhen looked at the package and reached out to take it. She didn’t remember if she had ever bought it online.
When she opened it, she found that it was a jewelry box. Su Peizhen had a premonition and opened the box.
Inside was a set of pink diamond jewelry. There were two pink diamonds on the butterfly wings. It was not very big, but it had a fresh style and was very suitable for young women.
The phone rang and Su Peizhen picked it up. It was a call from Su Chenghui.
“Peizhen, Happy Birthday.”Su Chenghui had put in a lot of effort to get Su Peizhen to come out earlier.
This was Su Peizhen’s first birthday after she was released from prison. He originally wanted to come to Rongcheng on his own. However, Li Qianxue was a little uncomfortable these few days.
Therefore, whether it was Su Qingsang’s birthday or Su Peizhen’s birthday, he did not come.
“Thank you, Dad.”As soon as Su Peizhen said this, she felt that Xiang caiping was looking at her in a strange way.
She suppressed the helplessness in her heart. Regardless of whether su chenghui had changed children or what he had done in the past, he truly loved her for more than twenty years.
Based on this point, Su Peizhen would never be able to deny Su Chenghui.
“Breaking out of the cocoon and becoming a butterfly, you have a new life. Peizhen, this gift is my most sincere heart. I hope that your future will be bright and smooth.”
“Thank you, Dad.”It was a lie for Su Peizhen to say that she was not moved. “I like this gift very much.”
Although she did not think that she needed a new life, this was Su Chenghui’s heart.
“It’s good that you like it. Qianxue has caught a cold these few days, so I don’t have time to come over. I’ll go to Rongcheng to see you in a few days.”
“Okay.”Su Peizhen didn’t refuse. Su Chenghui’s concern had been like this ever since she got out of prison, neither too far nor too close.
This degree was just right, so it wouldn’t make her feel uncomfortable. When she heard that Li Qianxue had caught a cold, she wanted to ask a question.
However, she glanced at Xiang caiping. In the end, she didn’t ask. She hung up the phone and realized that Xiang caiping was looking at her. She wanted to say something but hesitated.
“What’s wrong? Is there something wrong? Mom.”
