She gave her phone number to Pei Xin, telling her to contact her if she was in trouble.
Then, the dishes were served, and the three of them ate together.
During this period, Jiang Yan did not mention Li Ze to Pei Xin again, as if Li Ze was just an insignificant person in her life.
With Jiang Yuan by their side as a link, the three of them communicated very smoothly.
After returning to the company, Pei Xinâs mood became a little heavy.
Even though the results of the DNA test had not come out yet, she had a feeling that Li Ze had lied to her.
Ling Lin was not Li Zeâs son at all.
On the other side, Zhang Ying was feeling extremely frustrated.
The house that she was living in was suddenly taken back by Li Ze.
This house was given to her by Li Ze a year ago.
Zhang Ying liked it very much when she received it.
However, it was not until the house was taken back that Zhang Ying realized that her name was not written on the property ownership certificate at all.
Li Ze had also taken back all the sports cars that he had bought for her.
Zhang Ying tried to make a scene and even threatened to commit suicide, but Li Ze ignored her.
He even told her that if she wanted to die, she shouldnât do it on his property.
Zhang Ying started to panic.
She wanted to apologize to Li Ze, but Li Ze didnât give her the chance.
This was only one aspect. What was more serious was that all her work had stopped flowing in.
No production team dared to ask her to film, and no one dared to make her their product ambassador.
This meant that she could no longer survive in the entertainment industry. She had no source of income.
Zhang Ying could only rent a small random room. She tried to post a video online and broadcast it live, but the video was quickly taken down and the live broadcast room was immediately blocked.
Only then did Zhang Ying realize that power could really control everything.
The love that she thought Li Ze had for her was ail fake.
She had clearly not done anything to Pei Xin. She only told the truth in front of the company. Why did Li Ze have to protect Pei Xin to this extent?
Zhang Ying could not get an answer to all of this.
On the fourth day, Li Ze returned.
It was eight in the evening when he returned.
Pei Xin had already gotten off work and was waiting for him at home.
Li Ze pushed the door open and entered. He saw Pei Xin sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Pei Xin wasnât watching TV, nor using her phone. She just sat in the living room and seemed to be waiting for him.
Li Ze was a little surprised and happy to see her waiting.
He quickly walked forward. âPei Xin, were you waiting for me?â
Pei Xin raised her head and looked at Li Ze with a cold and emotionless gaze.
Li Ze started to panic. He had a premonition that something had changed.
âPei Xin, whatâs wrong? Did someone bully you at the company?â Li Ze asked hurriedly. âTell me their names, Iâll do anything.â
Pei Xin shook her head. âNothing happened. The people in the company wonât dare to cause trouble for me openly.â
âThen what is it?â Li Ze asked.
He felt that Pei Xin was acting differently from before.
Pei Xin took out a piece of paper and placed it on the table. âTake a look. This is the result of the paternity test between you and Ling Lin. Youâre not his biological father.â
Pei Xin looked straight at Li Ze.â So why did you lie to me?â
âDo you know why 1 want to find Ling Linâs biological father? Ling Lin has a disease. The doctor said that itâs best to find his biological father to aid with the medical treatment. Youâre not his father. Why were you trying to take responsibility for someone that wasnât yours? If I didnât get the test results myself, 1 would have always thought that you were Ling Linâs father. Iâve delayed both Ling Lin and your progress.â
Li Ze tried to grab Pei Xinâs hand, but Pei Xin dodged him.
âPei Xin, although 1 lied to you, I didnât mean to do any harm.â Li Ze hurriedly explained. âIâll take full responsibility for Ling Linâs illness. Even if Ling Lin isnât my biological child, 1 will treat him as my own in the future. I will treat him very well.â
Pei Xinâs lips twitched. âBut Li Ze, what Ling Lin wants is an honorable identity. If you can take care of him, can you prove to him youâre his father? You said that you like me. You said that no one can replace me in your heart. If thatâs the case, would you marry me?â
Pei Xinâs tone was very gentle, but these words felt like a wrecking ball crashing into Li Zeâs heart..
