After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 591: Chapter 595 The First Confrontation [1]

People both inside and outside the elevator were somewhat surprised.

”What a coincidence!” Xu Pei was taken aback for a moment, then smiled as she came in, ”Why didn’t I see Zimo?”

”He had some business to attend to and left first.” Luo Xiaoqian smiled back at her and, reminded of the words Yu Tong had just said, subconsciously stepped to the side.

The elevator continued its descent, and no one spoke again until the doors parted within the parking garage.

”I live not far from World City, so how about I give you a ride back?” Xu Pei suddenly offered.

Yu Tong smiled and started to speak, intending to decline on behalf of Luo Xiaoqian, ”There’s no need to trouble Director Xu, right?”

”What trouble? It’s on the way.” Xu Pei smiled. ”Yu Tong, you aren’t suggesting that you can’t even trust me, are you?”

Yu Tong was about to say something else, but Luo Xiaoqian spoke up before her, ”Then I’ll trouble Sister Xu Pei.”

”Xiao Qian?” Yu Tong turned her head to look at Luo Xiaoqian.

”Since it’s on the way, it saves you both another trip.” Luo Xiaoqian explained.

”Alright then!” With things having reached this point, Yu Tong found it difficult to say more. ”Just remember to give me a call when you get home!”

”Sure,” Luo Xiaoqian readily agreed.

As they left the elevator, Yu Tong watched Luo Xiaoqian get into Xu Pei’s car, feeling somewhat uneasy, ”Gao Jie, let’s follow and check.”

”Okay, I’ll drive!”

Gao Jie agreed with a word, and the three quickly got into a Mercedes and drove out of the parking lot, following Xu Pei’s car from a distance.

Inside Xu Pei’s car.

Luo Xiaoqian sat in the passenger seat, watching as Xu Pei drove with practiced ease, ”You have something to say to me, don’t you?”

Xu Pei was slightly startled, ”Why would you suddenly ask that?”

”It’s nothing, I just thought you suddenly offered to take me home because you had something to say to me.” Luo Xiaoqian said.

Xu Pei continued to drive forward, and then suddenly pulled the car over to the side of the road and stopped.

”You’re right, I do have something to say to you.” She turned her face, looking deeply at Luo Xiaoqian, ”Leave Leng Zimo. If you want money, I can give it to you, if you want to become famous, I can help you with that too. Let go of Leng Zimo, I don’t want you to ruin him!”

Luo Xiaoqian was stunned, took a deep breath, and her complexion remained calm, ”Sister Xu Pei, do you like Zimo?”

Like?

How could mere liking encapsulate her feelings for him.

That man was the reason for her effort, the future she strove for, the only belief that kept her going all these years.

That emotion had long surpassed the boundaries of love.

Xu Pei watched the night sky beyond the windshield, ”I am the person who loves him most in this world!”

Luo Xiaoqian pursed her lips, ”I’m sorry, but I love him too.”

”You love him?” Xu Pei suddenly turned, her eyes full of anger as she looked at Luo Xiaoqian sitting in the passenger seat, ”Do you dare look me in the eye and tell me that the person you truly love is him?!”

Turning her face, Luo Xiaoqian looked back at her without avoidance, ”I love him, I love Leng Zimo!”

”Humph!” Xu Pei snorted coldly, ”Do you think like that I will believe you?! Do you understand him, do you know what it is he wants, do you know what his dreams are, do you know why he started EM even though he already had Emperor View? What right do you have to love him? Ever since he met you, you’ve been nothing but trouble for him, Zimo needs a woman who can help him and create a beautiful future together, and you... you’re clearly not that!”
