Zhou Li didn't reply a word. Jiang Mingzhu stared at him for a long time with red fox eyes, her eyes dimming little by little.
She brought to life a soulful and affectionate figure who went from having a little bit of expectations to being disheartened.
For a moment, Zhou Li was even confused by her and felt that she was really sincere to him.
But he knew this woman's intentions very well, how could that be possible?
While Zhou Li was silent, Jiang Mingzhu had already taken the medicine. She ate it happily. After eating, she smiled at him with the corner of her mouth pulled up.
"After eating, are you relieved, brother?" she said, "Although I really want to marry my brother, I will not use my children to gain power."
It was really strange to hear such words from her mouth. Zhou Li sneered, "But you know how to administer medicine."
Jiang Mingzhu ignored the sarcasm in his words and said seriously, "Children should be the product of consensual consent. If my brother doesn't like me, I won't get pregnant."
Does she mean that she will only give birth to children for men who like her?
Zhou Li suddenly remembered Zheng Linxu's daughter, four years old, whose mother is unknown...
Now when Jiang Mingzhu talks about children, she has changed from her usual unscrupulous behavior and has become so principled that it is difficult not to make people suspicious.
Zhou Li: "Do you not want to use your child to gain power, or did you try to use your child to gain power but failed?"
Jiang Mingzhu didn't understand his question and was about to ask more questions when Zhou Li started the car again.
Five minutes later, the cross-country parked below her apartment.
Jiang Mingzhu went to open the car door and found that it was still locked. She instinctively turned back to look at Zhou Li and met his deep eyes.
In the dark night, there was unconcealable desire in his eyes, like a surging undercurrent.
Jiang Mingzhu raised her eyebrows, "Brother, do you still want to have sex with me?"
"I don't want anyone to know what happened today." Zhou Li ordered her, "Watch your mouth."
Jiang Mingzhu laughed, her beautiful eyes curved into a crescent shape.
When she smiled, Zhou Li's expression became even colder, "Why are you laughing?"
Jiang Mingzhu complained: "Brother always refuses to admit his fault when he sleeps. What a scumbag."
Zhou Li: "..."
The car was quiet when Jiang Mingzhu's cell phone buzzed and vibrated. She took it out of her bag and saw that it was a call from Zheng Linxu.
She had promised Zheng Linxu just now that she would send him a message when she got home, but she was delayed by this bitch Zhou Li.
Jiang Mingzhu was about to hang up the phone and reply to the message, but Zhou Li suddenly snatched her phone away and answered the call for her.
Just like she did before, she pressed speakerphone.
The word "fuck" came to Jiang Mingzhu's lips. Does he want to hold a grudge like this?
"Are you home?" Zheng Linxu's voice came from the mobile phone.
Jiang Mingzhu: "Here we are, I'm too hot. I took a shower when I got home and was about to send you a message."
Zheng Lin said: "Thank you for your hard work tonight, go back and get some rest early."
When Zhou Li heard this, his vision suddenly cooled down, and the temperature around him dropped a few degrees.
Jiang Mingzhu felt a murderous gaze on her back. She just wanted to end the phone call quickly: "Well, you should go to bed quickly."
Zheng Lin said: "Don't forget what you promised Sansan."
Zhou Li watched Jiang Mingzhu lie to Zheng Lin in a familiar manner. After throwing the phone to her, he pressed the central lock and said, "Get out."
Then Jiang Mingzhu left.
It's just that when she got off the car, her legs were still a little weak. Zhou Li was even crazier than taking medicine tonight, as if he wanted to kill her.
After Jiang Mingzhu got out of the car, Zhou Li lowered the window. The warm summer night breeze blew in through the window, blowing away the emotional smell in the car.
A hint of floral fragrance passed through his nose, and he quickly recognized that it was the smell of Jiang Mingzhu.
——
Jiang Mingzhu went home, took a shower, and fell asleep. She was woken up by Zhan Yanqing's phone call the next morning.
Jiang Mingzhu yawned and answered the phone
.
"Did I wake you up?" Zhan Yanqing said, "I will pick you up before twelve o'clock, have a meal and take you to put on makeup."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Yeah, okay."
After answering the phone, Jiang Mingzhu got up and drank a glass of iced Americano, forcing herself to cheer up. There was still a tough battle to fight today.
In the morning, Fang Qinyang came over and was shocked when he saw the bruises on Jiang Mingzhu's knees.
"Did Zheng Linxu abuse you?" Fang Qinyang was surprised.
"Zhou Li." Jiang Mingzhu told Fang Qinyang what happened last night.
Then Fang Qinyang was even more surprised, "Just wait for me to find out, Zhou Li has been following you for a whole day?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Yeah."
Fang Qinyang: "Has he fallen in love with you? Did he break his guard when he saw you going to the hotel with Zheng Linxu? He took photos to show to Zhan Yanqing just to threaten you into sleeping with him."
Jiang Mingzhu thought the same way. There was no contradiction between Zhou Li's disdain for her and his liking for her body.
Fang Qinyang: "Isn't he scolding you all the time for seducing men? He looks like he is unmoved by sexual abstinence, hehe, man."
Jiang Mingzhu accepted Fang Qinyang's words tacitly, "I like good ones but can't refuse coquettish ones. You're a bitch."
Especially Zhou Li, who looks cold and cold, will only become more coquettish in private. While he looks down on her, he is also confused by her appearance.
——
At twelve o'clock, Zhan Yanqing drove his new sports car to pick up Jiang Mingzhu and gave her a necklace as a gift.
After lunch, Jiang Mingzhu was taken to do some styling by Zhan Yanqing. The dress and necklace she wore were all gifts from him.
When Zhan Yanqing saw Jiang Mingzhu coming out of the dressing room, a flash of surprise flashed in her peach blossom eyes.
The dress is a black V-neck style. Her figure can be controlled without any pressure. Her beautiful collarbone and sexy bust line can attract everyone's attention as soon as she appears.
It was the first time Zhan Yanqing met a woman like Jiang Mingzhu. She looked like a rabbit when she was pure, and like a fox when she was seductive. She could satisfy almost all his fantasies about women.
On the way to the hotel, Jiang Mingzhu asked Zhan Yanqing, "Is it really okay if you take me there like this?"
Zhan Yanqing: "If the sky falls, I will hold it up."
Jiang Mingzhu bit her lip gently and hesitated to speak.
Zhan Yanqing: "My sister is looking for you again?"
Jiang Mingzhu shook her head, "No, it's just...your parents probably won't like me."
Zhan Yanqing: "You don't care about them, as long as I like you."
Unconsciously, the car had stopped at the hotel. Zhan Yanqing opened the car door for Jiang Mingzhu and took her hand to the check-in area.
After taking just a few steps, he ran into acquaintances, Xu Siyan and Yuanye.
The two of them have known about Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li for a long time, especially Yuanye. Every time they see Zhan Yanqing, they want to tell him, "You have been cheated on."
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Yuan, hello." Jiang Mingzhu greeted them obediently.
Xu Siyan nodded lightly, Yuan Ye's expression was complicated.
As if the excitement was not enough, Yuanye looked up and saw Zhan Yubai coming over with Zhou Li on his arm.
Good guy, Shura Field.
Zhan Yubai wore a golden dress today. Zhou Li's tie was of the same color as her dress. It looked like it had been carefully matched by a stylist.
Seeing them coming, Jiang Mingzhu subconsciously leaned into Zhan Yanqing's arms.
Zhou Li saw this scene and glanced at Jiang Mingzhu with piercing eyes.
