Jiang Mingzhu seemed to have not heard him, and did what she should do.
Zhou Li could only hear her crying and her words of hatred.
"That's enough, Jiang Mingzhu." Zhou Li patted her hard on the back, "Don't cry so hard."
Jiang Mingzhu finally made some movement this time. She raised her head and met his gaze with tears on her face.
"Do you love her?" she asked.
Zhou Li didn't answer.
Jiang Mingzhu grabbed his collar: "Then do you love me?"
Zhou Li remained silent.
Jiang Mingzhu bit her lip, "You don't even want to lie to me."
Zhou Li: "Do you like being lied to?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "If the target is you, I am willing to be deceived for the rest of my life."
Tears dripped from the corners of her eyes to her mouth. She licked her dry lips, "I believe it as long as you say it."
Zhou Li: "Madman."
Jiang Mingzhu: "I have already gone crazy."
The two chatted for a few words, Jiang Mingzhu's mood gradually stabilized, and Zhou Li took him to the lounge.
Jiang Mingzhu was pushed to the bed by Zhou Li and sat down. She tilted her head and asked him, "Why did you bring me here?"
Zhou Li: "Do you want to leave my office like this?"
She was crying so hard that she was in despair, her face and mouth were all white. People who didn't know about it probably thought he was abusing her.
Jiang Mingzhu whispered: "You were the one who bullied me first."
Zhou Li: "Stay well and don't cause trouble."
After leaving these words, he left. Jiang Mingzhu was tired from crying, so she didn't stop him.
After Zhou Li left, Jiang Mingzhu went to the bathroom and washed her face. Her makeup was all stained and she was terribly ugly.
She thought carefully about Zhou Li's reaction just now, wondering how much he believed it.
But believe it or not, her thinking must have been messed up.
Half-truth, half-falseness, using the theme as a pretext, after performing this scene, Jiang Mingzhu felt that all her strength had been drained.
She lay on the bed in the lounge and fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.
——
Zhou Li returned to the office, looked at the scattered documents on the floor, and rubbed his temples.
He stepped forward, leaned over, picked things up, and put them back in their place.
The moment she closed the drawer, what appeared in front of her was the same hysterical appearance of Jiang Mingzhu just now, and her "I hate her" kept echoing in her ears.
Of all the words, he was certain that this one came from the bottom of his heart.
She had said she hated Zhan Yubai in front of him before, but this was the first time she expressed her hatred directly like this.
Zhou Li folded his hands together, his frown never relaxing for a moment.
After a long time, he sent a WeChat message to Xu Siyan.
【Come with me to Hong Kong City on the weekend. 】
——
Jiang Mingzhu slept until dusk. When she opened her eyes, the sunset could already be seen in the sky outside.
She touched the alarm clock beside the bed and saw that it was already a quarter past five.
She actually spent a day sleeping with pay.
But her head still hurt when she got up. She hadn't cried so hard for a long time and her body couldn't bear it.
It's all Zhou Li's fault, Jiang Mingzhu cursed in her heart.
Cao Cao arrived right after he said Cao Cao. As soon as he finished scolding, the door of the lounge was pushed open. Jiang Mingzhu looked up and met Zhou Li's eyes.
Zhou Li looked at her, crying until her makeup was stained, and now she was bare-faced.
On the fair face, those black grape-like eyes were very dazzling. Even if they were swollen, they could not block the alluring light.
When she was naked, she looked a little more childlike, especially after crying, she looked very aggrieved.
Zhou Li: "Wake up."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Oh."
Zhou Li: "Stop crying?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "...you
Do you want to see me continue crying? "
Zhou Li: "Noisy."
Jiang Mingzhu was about to refute him, but his cell phone rang.
I don't know who the caller came from, but from what Zhou Li meant, it seemed like he was going to meet someone important.
Jiang Mingzhu stood up and walked to the closet, took out a suit jacket, and ran to him as if she was attentive.
Zhou Li held the phone and glanced at her, "What?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Wear this one, brother looks best in a black suit!"
As she spoke, she began to dress him and walked around him in circles.
Although Zhou Li acted very coldly, he still put on the clothes.
Jiang Mingzhu buttoned up his sleeves at the last moment, stood up on tiptoes and secretly kissed his chin, "You're so handsome, I can't bear to show it to others."
Zhou Li sneered and pushed her away, "You can go out."
A trace of disappointment flashed across Jiang Mingzhu's face. After she stopped talking, she lowered her head and left.
Coming out of the office, the gloom on Jiang Mingzhu's face was swept away, the corners of her mouth raised, and she smiled arrogantly and proudly.
——
Zhou Li suddenly appeared in Feng He's office, catching Zhan Yubai off guard.
She put down her phone and looked at Zhou Li in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Zhou Li glanced at her phone and asked lightly, "Why, shouldn't I come?"
Zhan Yubai: "Of course I didn't mean that. Do you want to have dinner together tonight? I'm not busy today... do you want to go to my place?"
Zhou Li: "Let's go to Jufeng Pavilion."
Zhan Yubai: "It's okay, I haven't eaten their boiled fish for a long time."
Because Zhou Li came to pick her up, Zhan Yubai took Zhou Li's car to Jufeng Pavilion. She was in a good mood and kept chatting with Zhou Li on the way, but Zhou Li was the same as before, not very warm.
At seven o'clock, the two came to Jufeng Pavilion, and the waiter took them to the designated box.
The moment he opened the door, Zhan Yubai saw Su Min chatting happily with Zhou Zhanghui and Jin Rou.
The three of them heard the sound of the door opening and were looking this way.
Jin Rou smiled and said, "Thursday, Yubai, you are here, sit down quickly."
Zhan Yubai's brain shut down and her heart rate soared. She glanced in Su Min's direction, and when their eyes met, they quickly looked away.
Zhou Li stood aside and took in Zhan Yubai's reaction.
He lowered his head, saw Zhan Yubai's clenched fists, and said lightly, "I forgot to tell you, my parents made an appointment with Dr. Su for dinner and asked me to take you with them."
Zhan Yubai forced out a smile and said, "Dr. Su, long time no see."
Su Min smiled and nodded at Zhan Yubai, "Indeed, his complexion looks much better than before. He must have taken good care of himself in the past two years. Mr. Zhou loves his fiancée very much."
Zhan Yubai: "..."
Jin Rou invited Zhou Li and Zhan Yubai to sit down, and the two of them naturally sat next to each other.
Su Min happened to be sitting across from the two of them.
Zhan Yubai's heart was beating faster and faster. She, who had always been kind-hearted, rarely fell silent during tonight's dinner party and kept her head down.
When Zhan Yubai was distracted, he suddenly felt an extra strength on his shoulders.
She trembled, looked up and saw Zhou Li.
Zhou Li: "Are you feeling unwell? Let Dr. Su take a look at you?"
"...No need." Zhan Yubai smiled, "I have my period today and my stomach feels uncomfortable."
As she said that, she stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Zhou Li watched Zhan Yubai walk out of the box.
Su Min, who was opposite, saw this and said with a smile: "The relationship between Mr. Zhou and Miss Zhan is getting better and better."
