After Zhan Yubai asked this question, the air around him fell into silence.
Zhou Li stopped picking off his clothes. These few minutes seemed like a century to Zhan Yubai.
Finally, Zhou Li spoke: "Go to rest early, I'm leaving."
He calmly distanced himself from Zhan Yubai and put on his coat and shoes.
Zhan Yubai knew he couldn't keep him, so he forced out a smile and said, "Okay, then be careful on the road."
Zhou Li: "Yeah."
Zhan Yubai sent Zhou Li into the elevator, watched the elevator door close, and returned home.
She closed the door and leaned her back against the door panel. Thinking of Zhou Li's rejection of her just now, her face was extremely embarrassed, and her gentle facial features seemed a little distorted.
This is not the first time Zhou Li has rejected her, but this time is the most shameless time for her.
Although Zhan Yubai usually hinted, he would not take the initiative to invite like today. As a result, Zhou Liding didn't save any face for her.
There was no difference between his rejection and a direct slap on her face.
Zhan Yubai was embarrassed and inexplicably flustered.
Fu Xiaozhi is back, and there is Jiang Mingzhu of unknown origin...
right! Jiang Mingzhu!
Zhan Yubai remembered the business, she immediately gathered her emotions, turned around and went to the study, turned on her computer and checked her mailbox.
——
On Friday afternoon, Jiang Mingzhu flew back to Beicheng alone.
In the past few days in Hong Kong City, she went to the cemetery to accompany Pei Ye, and stayed at her adoptive parents' home for two days. She adjusted well.
I didn’t contact Zhou Li, my ears were clear, my phone was turned off, and I couldn’t hear the noise from the outside world.
After getting off the plane, Jiang Mingzhu dragged her suitcase out, turned on her phone and sent a WeChat message to her adoptive parents to report that she was safe.
After sending the message, I put down my phone and suddenly ran into a wall of people.
"Isn't it..." Jiang Mingzhu apologized and looked up, but choked up when she saw the person coming.
The person standing opposite, looking at her with a gloomy face, wasn't that bitch Zhou Li?
Jiang Mingzhu didn't panic at all when she was caught. She laughed a second later, as happy as a little woman who was surprised by her boyfriend.
Jiang Mingzhu: "Did my brother come to pick me up specifically? Did he also secretly check my flight number?"
Zhou Li was holding his breath, but when he saw Jiang Mingzhu's playful smile, he became even more angry.
Zhou Li grabbed her wrist and locked his eyes with her, "Where have you gone?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "My brother has already checked the flight number. It would be too hypocritical to ask this."
Of course Zhou Li knew that she was returning to Hong Kong City, but he couldn't accept her way of leaving without saying goodbye, and even turned off her mobile phone.
Coupled with her current triumphant state...
Zhou Li's pupils tightened, and he pulled her over with great force, snatched her suitcase, dragged her with one hand and the suitcase with the other, and strode toward the parking lot.
Jiang Mingzhu was carried into the car by Zhou Li, but she didn't run away and sat down properly.
She watched Zhou Li put the suitcase in the trunk in the rearview mirror, and the corners of her mouth curled up.
Unexpectedly, her trial this time was more successful than she imagined.
When I first flew to Hong Kong City, I didn't think about hiding it from him. But then my phone happened to run out of battery, so I just took advantage of the situation and tried to see if the dog would be anxious if he couldn't contact her for a few days.
When she came back this time, Jiang Mingzhu was also prepared to be questioned by him.
I just didn't expect that he was so anxious that he chased me directly to the airport.
Zhou Li got into the car, fastened his seat belt, and stepped on the accelerator.
Jiang Mingzhu held her chin and looked sideways at him. The man's facial lines were very tight, his lips were pursed into a line, and there was a cold aura around him.
While waiting at the red light, Jiang Mingzhu reached out and touched his chin and asked delicately, "Brother is still angry?"
As expected, he was shot away.
Jiang Mingzhu pouted, "So fierce."
Zhou Li gave her a cold glance, his eyes
It comes with a warning.
Although he didn't express it clearly, Jiang Mingzhu had already guessed that the dog wanted her to take the initiative to explain and coax him.
Jiang Mingzhu: "I came back to Hong Kong City because of family matters. Brother, don't be angry. I will make it up to you tonight."
Jiang Mingzhu went to grab Zhou Li's arm, but he pushed her away.
Jiang Mingzhu: "My adoptive parents bought a house in Hong Kong City using my ID card. This time I went back to apply for a real estate certificate for them. If you don't believe me, you can check it. I swear I didn't lie."
She raised her hand and gestured with three fingers. Her delicate and beautiful face was full of seriousness and a little aggrieved.
After Zhou Li noticed her grievance, he sneered, "You think there's nothing wrong with you?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "I just didn't expect that my brother would care about me so much. My fiancée won't be angry if he cares about me so much, right?"
Zhou Li didn't even look at her, just turned his hand on the steering wheel.
Jiang Mingzhu covered her heart, looking frightened, "If Miss Zhan comes to settle accounts with me, will my brother protect me?"
The artificial movements and sounds made by her actually seemed a bit pitiful.
Zhou Li: "Are you still afraid of her?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Of course I'm afraid. She is the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family. Mrs. Zhou likes her so much, I can't afford to offend her."
Zhou Li: "You don't act like you can't be offended."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Well, I can only dare to be a little bit arrogant when I'm with you in private. In front of others... I still have to pretend to be someone else's girlfriend."
When she mentioned this, Zhou Li's expression turned gloomy.
After Jiang Mingzhu saw it, her evil taste was greatly satisfied.
The dog is becoming more and more possessive of her, which is a good thing.
Jiang Mingzhu was taken to Yuanyin Manor by Zhou Li again, and her suitcase was also brought in.
After Zhou Li changed his shoes, he sat on the sofa. Jiang Mingzhu was very smart and walked up barefoot, straddling his legs with one foot, and bent down to kiss his Adam's apple.
While kissing, she looked at him naked, and her soft fingers roamed on his chest muscles.
Zhou Li's shoulders seemed extremely stiff, and his body had begun to scream.
Jiang Mingzhu: "Brother is becoming less and less flirtatious. He seems so worthless."
Zhou Li: "Go down."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Huh?"
Zhou Li said something so abruptly that even Jiang Mingzhu, who had extremely quick reflexes, didn't understand what he meant.
It wasn't until Zhou Li pushed her to the floor, with her chin resting on his knees, that Jiang Mingzhu understood what he wanted to do.
Jiang Mingzhu stuck out her tongue and licked her lips, then smiled sweetly, "Brother is so sultry."
The second half of the sentence was followed by her hand, "But... I like it."
When the atmosphere was heated, Zhou Li's cell phone buzzed and vibrated.
The call is from Jin Rou, so it's okay not to answer it now.
Zhou Li adjusted his breathing, pressed answer, and at the same time pressed Jiang Mingzhu's shoulder to pause everything.
Zhou Li: "Mom."
He lowered his eyes and met Jiang Mingzhu's eyes, using this title to remind her not to mess around.
Jiang Mingzhu stopped and looked at him.
Jin Rou: "Where?"
Zhou Li: "Outside, do something. What do you want from me?"
Jin Rou: "Why is it so important that you didn't even go home for dinner with Yubai?"
Zhou Li: "Me and... um."
Zhou Li pursed his lips and lowered his eyes to look at the chaotic people. The blood vessels in his forehead were about to burst.
