Su Peizhen looked at the man lying on the bed in her apartment with a cold face.
The screen of the mobile phone in her palm was on, and the three numbers 110 were just waiting for her to press her fingertips to call the police.
Her fingertips didn't move for a long time, and she just glanced at the man again. My jaw still hurts, and the place where it hit just now seems to be bruised.
Rubbing her chin, she looked at herself again and found that the man's blood was on her body, which made her very unhappy.
Put your phone away, stand up and walk to the bed to stand.
The man was lying there, covered in blood. There was blood not only on his body, but also on his face. His facial features were stained with blood, and his appearance could not be seen clearly.
She only remembered the bright phoenix eyes of the other party when the car lights flashed just now. He looks quite evil.
Su Pei really doesn't know how to wait on people. Regardless of whether it was Christmas or not, she called one of her usual hourly workers and asked them to come over.
This apartment is very close to Xiang Caiping's previous department store. If she sometimes goes to work late, she comes here to sleep.
In fact, she had lived here for a long time in the past few months. It was because of Xiang Caiping's guilty eyes and pitiful attitude that she felt very uncomfortable staying in that home.
Just avoid it if you can. She knew in her heart that she was sorry for Xiang Caiping's attitude, but there were some things she couldn't control.
At this point, she did miss Li Qianxue a little. Based on Li Qianxue's personality, no matter what her children do, her pride and principles will not let her sympathize with anyone.
Xiao Zhao, the hourly worker, lives very far from here and arrived soon. When she arrived, Su Peizhen had just taken a shower. Her long, slightly damp hair was as good as a bathrobe draped over her body.
Xiao Zhao has helped in many families, but there are really not many who are as pretty as Su Peizhen.
As a woman, she looked at the scene in front of her and felt that it was a bit much. Su Peizhen seemed not to notice Xiao Zhao's gaze. He glanced in the direction of the bed.
"Clean up and help me change the sheets on the bed."
Xiao Zhao is from out of town, and she is very honest and sincere from the countryside. Without asking any questions, he started changing clothes for the man on the bed.
The blood all over Xiao Zhao looked horrifying, and he endured fear and cleaned up the man.
but-
"Miss Su, this person is injured, it seems very serious." When Xiao Zhao spoke, he added: "He is still bleeding."
Su Peizhen was reading documents aside, but stood up after hearing her words.
Most of the blood stains on the man's body on the bed have been cleaned up, so it can be clearly seen that there was a cut on the chest.
She knew just now that the man was injured, but she didn't expect it to be so serious.
If he is not sent to the hospital, he might really die.
"Miss Su?" Xiao Zhao's voice brought her back to her senses: "There is a medicine box outside, you can deal with it as you wish."
"Miss Su." Xiao Zhao stared with horror on his face: "This person is so seriously injured, does he really not need to be sent to the hospital?"
"No need." Su Peizhen's voice was cold: "I think his fate is too high to die."
"..." Xiao Zhao reluctantly went to get the medicine box, intending to ask what the man's relationship was with Su Peizhen. But seeing Su Peizhen's cold attitude, she didn't dare to ask.
As a housekeeper, Xiao Zhao also learned simple wound treatment and bandaging.
I brought a medicine box and helped the man treat his wounds. Finally, he wiped all the blood off the opponent's body.
Except for his pants, everything else was stripped off. Fortunately, he found that the only injured part of the other party was the knife on his chest.
I don’t know how it was done. The blow wasn’t too deep, but why was there so much blood on the opponent’s body
After finally finishing it, Xiao Zhao finally had time to look at the man's appearance.
"Hey, this gentleman is so handsome."
Su Peizhen was reading the document and didn't seem to hear this sentence. Xiao Zhao consciously made a mistake. After packing up, I planned to leave.
"I will pay you twice as much as your salary this month. Don't tell my mother what happened today."
When she walked to the door, she heard Su Peizhen's voice. She was still reading the document, as if she didn't care about the surrounding things.
Xiao Zhao responded and left. After she left, Su Peizhen put the documents aside.
This hourly worker was found for her by Xiang Caiping. When she lived here, Xiao Zhao would come over to help with cleaning and cooking. She didn't want her to talk nonsense in front of Caiping.
Very handsome
Su Peizhen glanced in the direction of the bed. The man closed his eyes tightly and his face was a little pale due to excessive blood loss. Although her eyes were closed, she still remembered the look on his face the moment he opened his eyes in the alley.
Is he handsome
I can barely see it. After all, there is never a shortage of outstanding-looking men around her.
This is a two-bedroom apartment. One is her master bedroom and the other is her study.
There is a bed in the study room, prepared for Xiang Caiping. I'm afraid she might come over occasionally. But Xiang Caiping seemed to know that she was not used to it and rarely came to the apartment when she was too close to her mother.
Su Peizhen placed the man on the bed in the study room, which was why she had to process the documents here.
Tomorrow is her birthday and she doesn't plan to enter the company. Because Xiang Caiping will definitely celebrate with her. Today I will process the files I can handle first.
Closing the document, Su Peizhen felt inexplicably irritated. Her birthday has not been celebrated for two years. To her, that was a joke.
Putting away those bad emotions, Su Peizhen put the files away and closed the notebook.
He got up and left the room. As for the man on the bed
Ah. It was his luck to be alive. If he really died here, she would not be afraid.
… …
Ling Jing woke up to the faint aroma of food. The injury on his chest reminded him of what happened last night.
Those people were so eager to attack him. The pain in his chest made his expression change as he stood up. Unexpectedly, that person would betray him.
It doesn't feel good to be betrayed by someone you trusted. Ling Jing clenched her fists and waited for the pain to pass.
Taking advantage of the time to relieve the pain, he opened his eyes and looked at the current environment. It's not a small room, it looks like a study.
Lowering his head, he was not wearing any clothes. His bare upper body could be seen that his wounds had been treated.
The wound was bandaged a little ugly. Place your hands on your chest.
I closed my eyes, thinking that if I lay still for a while, the aroma of the food would be more obvious.
The body's reaction is uncontrollable. He found that he was hungry.
When I got up, I couldn't find my clothes. I probably couldn't wear them either. Fortunately, the other party left his pants for him.
He just left the study and walked outside. In the kitchen, which was dyed slightly golden by the morning light, a very beautiful figure walked in, leisurely and calmly.
December 26th is Su Peizhen’s birthday.
She was in the kitchen, making breakfast for herself. She couldn't before. After being imprisoned, I learned some simple cooking.
The easiest thing is making sandwiches. Put the bread in the toaster and use the microwave to heat up a glass of milk.
She used to love drinking coffee, but after going to jail, she started to like drinking milk. Simple, pure and healthy.
The sandwich wasn't too complicated, and she made it quickly. Once done, cut the sandwich. Put it on the plate, take out the milk, and when you turn around, you see the man leaning at the door of the kitchen.
The other party only wore a pair of black boxer briefs, but his casual attitude made it seem like he was wearing a suit to attend a dinner.
Facing the other person's beautiful and narrow phoenix eyes, Su Peizhen carried the milk past him expressionlessly and walked directly to the dining table outside.
When passing by Ling Jing, she did not pause, put the sandwich and milk on the table, pulled out the chair and sat down.
Even though she was only wearing a bathrobe, her movements were still elegant.
He picked up the milk and took a sip, looking at the man in front of him while raising his eyes. Face slightly to one side.
"If it's okay, get out. The door is over there."
Ling Jing stared at her face for a while, then moved to the dining table and put her hands on the edge of the table.
"Did you save me yesterday?"
"No." Su Peizhen's expression remained unchanged. There was a milk stain on the corner of her mouth. Ling Jing looked at the trace and felt an inexplicable tightness in her throat.
When he looked back, his expression became a little flirtatious for a moment.
"No?" Ling Jing lowered her head and glanced at the bandage on her chest.
Su Peizhen raised his eyebrows, put down the milk, took the tissue on the table and wiped his lips.
"You insisted on getting into my car yesterday, and I didn't cover your wounds. So you can't say that I saved you."
Ling Jing remembered that yesterday this woman was leaving after kicking herself several times. He didn't know what was going on at the time, so he used his last bit of strength to follow the woman, and then forced himself into her car.
"Beauty, let me borrow your car to get away."
His wound was bleeding and he should go to the hospital. But the target was too big, so he had no choice but to follow this woman. And he was betting that this woman wouldn't call the police.
It later turned out that he was right.
All his strength was exhausted after entering the door. After all, he was seriously injured.
but-
"Even if you didn't save me, but you took me in, I will definitely repay you."
While Ling Jing was talking, he sat down next to her and reached out to get the sandwich.
Someone slapped him on the back of his hand, and he turned around to meet Su Peizhen's cold eyes: "Get out of here now, it will be considered as repayment."
Ling Jing took her hand back and thought of the kicks this woman had kicked yesterday.
Tsk, this woman is not only cruel, she also has a bad temper.
"Don't make me say it a second time. Get out."
When Ling Jing was about to speak, Su Peizhen's cell phone rang. Her cell phone was on the coffee table in the living room.
The ringtone made her expression slightly change for a moment, but she still quickly got up and answered the phone.
Who else would call her at this time, besides Xiang Caiping
"Pei Zhen, where are you?" Xiang Caiping's voice was a little worried: "Why didn't you come back all night? Today is your birthday, so don't go to the company. I cooked noodles for you in the morning, but you weren't there -"
The somewhat plaintive tone made Su Peizhen feel great pressure again. She paused and tried to make her voice sound normal: "I went out to a party with friends yesterday, but it was too late, so I stayed here in Rongyuan."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, you can live wherever you like. But today is your birthday, 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 she didn't need to talk to her in such a cautious manner.
But Caiping's overly excited tone made her speechless.
"Okay, what else do you want to eat? I'll cook it for you. I'm going to buy groceries now. By the way, I also prepared a birthday gift for you. You-"
Xiang Caiping didn't hear Su Peizhen's reaction: "So, will you come back for lunch?"
"Return."
"Okay, okay. Then I'll wait for you." Xiang Caiping suddenly became happy when she heard that her daughter was willing to come back.
The excitement made Su Peizhen feel helpless and sad. After hanging up the phone, she turned around and found that the man was sitting at the dining table, and the breakfast she had just prepared for herself had already been taken care of by the man.
Not only did she finish the sandwich on the plate, but the man also drank up the bottle of milk that she had taken two sips of.
But the man didn't realize what he had done at all. He looked at Su Peizhen, the corners of his lips raised slightly. Those narrow phoenix eyes looked even more evil than last night.
"The sandwich tastes good, but the portion is a bit too small. I'm not full. Beauty, a good person will do his best. Please have another one."
Su Peizhen held the phone tightly with her fingertips, and saw the hint of provocation and interest in the man's eyes.
She put the phone aside, walked to the dining table, picked up the plate and cup, and threw them into the trash can.
The movements are quick and clean. After throwing it away, I ran to the kitchen to wash my hands without any intention of making another serving.
Making breakfast also depends on your mood, even if it is as simple as a sandwich.
She is no longer in the mood now. Pull out the paper towel and wipe your hands clean. She came out and took a look at the man.
"Either you get out now, or I call the police and they kick you out. Choose one."
Ling Jing touched her chin and clicked her tongue twice when she saw the cold look in Su Peizhen's eyes.
"What if I choose neither of them?"
Seeing the scoundrel look on the man's face, Su Peizhen suddenly took a few steps forward, raised his hand, and directly hit the man's chest.
There are still injuries left from yesterday. Ling Jing was not prepared for this. His body winced in pain and he took a step back.
"you-"
K. I knew this woman was ruthless yesterday, but I didn't expect her to be so ruthless.
Although Su Peizhen was wearing a bathrobe, his movements were not slow at all. When he saw the man in pain, he not only did not stop, but he punched him again.
This punch was thrown out, but Ling Jing, who didn't expect him to strike again, was so painful that she broke out in sweat. Not only did he curl up his body, he also fell to the ground, looking at her with a painful expression.
It seemed as if he couldn't believe that Su Pei could be so cruel.
Su Peizhen took back his hand, his eyes cold: "I say it again, get out."
After saying this, she turned and returned to the room. Ten minutes later, she came out. He has already changed his clothes.
The red woolen coat made her look even more cool. She picked up her mobile phone on the coffee table and put it in her bag. She didn't even look at the man lying on the ground.
"If you don't leave, I don't mind opening your wound again."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened and closed again with a "bang" sound.
Ling Jing stood up after she left. But looking at the blood seeping out of his chest. His eyes were no longer as dumb as before.
She is truly a cruel woman. Covering her heart, Ling Jing raised her wrist and pressed a few times on her watch.
Not long after, someone came over.
"Young Master." The visitor's eyes widened when he saw the injuries on Ling Jing's body: "My subordinates spent the whole night looking for the Young Master yesterday. Young Master, who hurt you? Should we go back to our house now? "
"No need." Ling Jing's wound actually hurts. The wound was just randomly bandaged to stop the bleeding: "Please help me treat the wound. Then you can leave."
"But-"
"No buts." Ling Jing half-closed her eyes: "After handling this, I won't go back to my house for the time being. You go back first."
"Little Lord?"
"Those people want me dead so obviously. You pretended that I was still not here and continued to look for me. After a few days, those people will naturally be unable to hold back. I would like to see how many rats there are in this house."
"Yes." The person stopped talking and began to treat Ling Jing's wounds.
"Young Master, the wound is a bit deep. If it's not sutured, I'm afraid it won't work. But there's no anesthesia here—" He was in a hurry just now, and he was afraid of arousing suspicion, so he forgot to bring anesthesia.
"It's okay." Ling Jing gritted her teeth and endured the pain: "Just sew it up like this."
"yes."
Ling Jing lay there with her eyes closed, enduring the pain of the stitches. What comes to mind is the red figure floating away.
She really has the most poisonous heart in women.
… … …
Su Peizhen went directly back to the villa where she lived with Xiang Caiping. This villa is really small according to the size of the Su family in the past.
But now it's just the two of them, so it's appropriate.
After entering the door, Xiang Caiping's eyes lit up when he saw her coming: "I was just thinking about buying groceries. You came back. Have you had breakfast?"
"No."
"Then, I'll cook it for you." Xiang Caiping headed towards the kitchen. Su Peizhen's lips moved: "Didn't you say you cooked noodles for me this morning? I'll just eat noodles."
"It's been sitting there for a long time and it doesn't taste good. I'll make another one for you."
Su Peizhen couldn't stop it and watched Xiang Caiping go to the kitchen. She had a headache and rubbed her forehead.
A few months after she was released from prison, she still couldn't find the right way to get along with Xiang Caiping.
The noodles were cooked quickly and Xiang Caiping took them out and placed them on the dining table.
"Longevity noodles, I got up early and rolled them according to Lin Shi's method. You can try them."
"Okay." Su Peizhen sat down at the dining table, looked at Xiang Caiping expectantly, and finally couldn't bear it: "Thank you, Mom."
"Silly boy, how can I say thank you?"
Xiang Caiping's expression became happy again because of her thank you.
The feeling of powerlessness came over him, and Su Peizhen had no choice but to bury his head in eating noodles.
It tastes good, and it is indeed cooked according to the habits of Lin City people. She used to be very picky. Not eating many things.
Li Qianxue used to dote on her the most. As long as she frowned, she would change the chef for her. She once thought that she would never be able to endure hardship in her life.
But after nearly two years in prison, she discovered that there was nothing she couldn't eat.
Xiang Caiping looked at Su Peizhen sitting opposite her, feeling a slight pain in her heart.
She still remembered what Su Peizhen looked like before, and looking at her now, she, as a mother, felt heartbroken.
"Pei Zhen. It's your birthday today, let's go out and play. You see, the weather is not bad. It's not snowing either."
"good."
Su Peizhen put down the bowl and did not object: "Mom, next time you have to ask Mrs. Zhang to do the cooking. If you want to buy groceries, just make a call and someone will come to your door."
"It's okay, I just took this opportunity to walk around."
Xiang Caiping has not gone out with her since she came back from Su Peizhen: "Where are we going today? How about going hiking? I think the weather is good. Or do you have somewhere you want to go?"
Su Peizhen's overly flattering and cautious attitude made Su Peizhen very tired and unable to say more: "Then let's climb the mountain. When we come back, we can eat outside directly. There's no need to do anything else."
"Ah? Okay." Xiang Caiping was a little disappointed. She wanted to do more for her daughter, but found that nothing seemed to be right.
That look gave Su Peizhen an even more headache.
"Mom, we are mother and daughter, we don't care about this. It's just fine to eat out."
"Okay. Okay." Xiang Caiping nodded. There was a trace of emotion in his eyes before he was about to say something. The nanny Xiaoye came in with a package in her hand.
"Sister Su, this is your package."
"Mine?" Su Peizhen glanced at the package and reached out to take it. I don’t quite remember whether I have ever shopped online.
It was opened and found to be a jewelry box. Su Peizhen had a premonition and opened the box.
Inside is a set of pink diamond jewelry. On the butterfly wings are two pink diamonds. Not particularly big, but fresh in style, very suitable for young women.
The phone rang and Su Peizhen picked it up. It was Su Chenghui's call.
"Pei Zhen, happy birthday." Su Chenghui had spent a lot of effort to get Su Peizhen to come out early.
This was Su Peizhen's first birthday after being released from prison. He originally wanted to come to Rongcheng by himself. However, Li Qianxue has been feeling a little uncomfortable these days.
So whether it was Su Qingsang's birthday or Su Peizhen's birthday, he never came.
"Thank you, dad." As soon as Su Peizhen said these words, she felt that something was wrong with the way Xiang Caiping looked at her.
She suppressed the helplessness in her heart. No matter whether Su Chenghui had a different child or not, no matter what he had done in the past, he had truly loved her during those twenty years.
For this reason, Su Peizhen could never disown Su Chenghui.
"Become a butterfly from the cocoon and regain a new life. Peizhen, this gift is my most sincere heart. I hope you will have a bright and smooth future in the future."
"Thank you, Dad." Su Peizhen would be lying if he said he wasn't touched: "I like this gift very much."
Although she didn't think she needed a new life, this was Su Chenghui's wish.
"As long as you like it. Qianxue has had a cold these days, so I don't have time to come over. I will go to Rongcheng to see you after these few days."
"Okay." Su Peizhen did not refuse. Su Chenghui's concern has remained the same since she was released from prison, neither far nor near.
This level is just right and won't make her feel uncomfortable. She originally wanted to ask when she heard that Li Qianxue had a cold.
After just glancing at Xiang Caiping, she finally hung up the phone without asking any questions, and found Xiang Caiping looking at her with a look on her face that was about to speak.
"What's wrong? Is something wrong? Mom."
Guess what will happen when our Peizhen finds out that the man is staying at his home
First update, 6,000 words, will continue tomorrow.
