Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

According to Annie, there would be someone to pick her up when she reached the shore. Annie even managed to get her a job to earn a living.

Pei Xin patrolled around. There were dock workers coming and going by the shore, and some were calling for a taxi, but she didn’t see anyone coming to pick her up.

It wasn’t until a luxurious looking car stopped in front of her did her senses heightened.

A young man in a suit walked out with a serious gaze.

“Are you the person that Ms. Annie asked us to arrange work for?” he asked as he sized up Pei Xin.

Pei Xin nodded and handed her ID to the other party.

The man looked at the ID card and then looked at Pei Xin. He chuckled. “Your makeup skills have improved. 1 almost didn’t recognize you at first.”

Hearing the man’s words, Pei Xin felt a little strange.

“Do you know me?” she asked.

“It’s only been five years. Ms. Pei Xin, you actually don’t remember me?” The man chuckled.

“Then do you still remember President Li, Ms. Pei Xin?”

As the man’s voice fell, the car’s rear window rolled down, and a familiar looking face appeared.

The man had handsome features and a curved smile.

It was Li Ze, he was someone who had once fiercely pursued her.

Pei Xin’s body immediately stiffened and she subconsciously wanted to escape.

Li Ze smiled and said, “I haven’t seen you in five years. You’ve changed a lot. Come with me. You know what I’m capable of. You know that if 1 want to find you Haicheng, you won’t be able to escape.”

Pei Xin suppressed the bitterness in her heart and silently sat in the back seat of the car.

At this moment, she also remembered that the man who had spoken to her just now was Li Ze’s secretary, Chen Sheng.

After getting into the car, Pei Xin kept her head down.

“I didn’t know you were the one Annie asked for help.” She lowered her head awkwardly. “I’m sorry,” Pei Xin said apologetically when she realized that she was covered in dirt. “1 was afraid that someone would find out, so I’ve been staying in the warehouse for the past two days for safety reasons. I might dirty your car with my stench.”

Li Ze sized up the person in front of him with complicated emotions in his eyes.

There was guilt, heartache, and a hint of resentment.

He pinched Pei Xin’s chin with one hand and said in a tough tone, “Raise your head and look at me. You used to be the proudest peacock at the park. Only five years have passed, what happened to that confidence of yours?”

The pain from her chin made Pei Xin frown subconsciously.

She smiled bitterly, feeling deeply helpless.

She didn’t blame Li Ze for asking these questions.

In terms of power and ability, Li Ze wasn’t inferior to Lu Huai.

Li Ze had once professed his love for her in a high-profile manner and sent countless flowers and luxury goods to her. This was his way of showing his love for her.

At that time, she was still in university and thought that Li Ze was showing off his wealth to her.

She directly disposed of the flowers that Li Ze had sent to her in front of her classmates and returned the luxury goods on the spot.

Li Ze was humiliated.

Even so, Li Ze still refused to give up.

During that time, Lu Li started to get angry because of Li Ze’s crazy pursuit.

In order to appease Lu Li, she drew a line between herself and Li Ze.

It wasn’t until she had rejected him the millionth time and that Li Ze had to leave the capital for work that he gave up on pursuing her.

When she was sentenced to prison, Li Ze had contacted her.

Li Ze promised that if she was willing to be his lover, he would protect her and she would not have to go to jail.

However, at that time, she was determined to protect her self-esteem and would rather go to jail than be Li Ze’s lover.

Although Pei Xin couldn’t see Li Ze’s expression back then, she was sure that Li Ze must have hated her for rejecting him once again.

She didn’t know that the backer Annie had found for him was Li Ze.

If she had known earlier, she would have chosen to give up this city.

There was no chance to turn back now.

Putting away her thoughts, Pei Xin stared at Li Ze with empty eyes.

“Wasn’t my pride built by the Pei family? Now, I’m a useless person who’s in a sticky situation. 1 just want to find a job to support my son and repay my brother.

“I didn’t know that you and Annie knew each other and that I will be going to you for help. 1 would like to officially apologize to you for causing you so much trouble.

“I don’t expect you to forgive me. I just hope that you can give me a chance to work so that 1 can earn money to support my family..”
