Jiang Mingzhu felt a little difficult to breathe, and Zhou Li used a lot of force, as if he really wanted to strangle her to death.
Jiang Mingzhu saw that the blood vessels on the back of his hands burst, and the clear knuckles bulged with his movements. A strong anger surged up from his eyes, sweeping over her.
"What else can you do besides make waves, Jiang Mingzhu." He called her name again, but it sounded like the call of the Lord of Hell.
Jiang Mingzhu looked at him with tears in her eyes: "I just want to know why you are angry."
Zhou Li: "You don't deserve to know."
He didn't know what unhappy thing he thought of, and the hand holding her neck started to exert force again.
Jiang Mingzhu's face was as pale as paper, her breathing was completely blocked, and she couldn't say a word this time. The suffocation made her look even more fragile, like a glass person that would break if touched.
Zhou Li let go of her and took a step back, keeping distance from her.
He adjusted his cuffs with his fingers and looked at her condescendingly, his voice without any warmth: "Liang Chongming is here to handle your resignation."
Jiang Mingzhu just started to take a deep breath when he stopped again because of his words: "...What do you mean?"
Zhou Li: "I'm getting engaged."
Jiang Mingzhu: "You don't want me anymore?"
Zhou Li: "I never said I wanted you."
Jiang Mingzhu: "I don't understand why. You were fine a few days ago, so why do you fall out when you say you're going to fall out?"
Zhou Li: "Don't come to me again in the future."
Jiang Mingzhu: "...Even if you are angry with me, you shouldn't marry her out of anger."
Zhou Li: "You deserve it too."
Jiang Mingzhu: "What about her? Is she worthy? Why should she?"
Zhou Li seemed to have lost the patience to even look at her, so he turned around and left.
Jiang Mingzhu rushed up and grabbed his arm without hesitation. Zhou Li stopped but did not look back.
Jiang Mingzhu: "Brother, don't abandon me, okay?"
That's the title again.
Zhou Li: "You have so many guests entering the curtain, but you want to snatch them away. How shameless are you?"
He dropped these words, threw her hand away, and walked out of the ward neatly and without any hesitation.
Jiang Mingzhu looked at Zhou Li's leaving figure, her head buzzing, and she fell as if weightless, falling to the floor.
Jiang Mingzhu hugged her knees with her hands, her eyes were dull, and she couldn't figure out her thoughts at all.
——
When Yuanye saw Zhou Li coming out, he immediately walked up to her and said, "How come it's so fast? If you don't spend more time with her, she's been..."
"Don't come to me about her affairs in the future." Zhou Li interrupted Yuan Ye coldly.
Only then did Yuan Ye realize that his face was ugly, and he looked like he was about to kill someone.
Yuanye: "Are you arguing again?"
Zhou Li: "She deserves it too."
Yuan Ye: "...Do you want to see what you are talking about?"
Zhou Li: "I think you are quite addicted to pretending to be her boyfriend."
Yuanye: "..."
Not to mention Jiang Mingzhu, he couldn't bear Zhou Li's uncertainty. What on earth made him so angry.
Xu Siyan also looked puzzled. He took a few steps closer. Before he could ask, he heard Zhou Li say, "She and I are done here."
Xu Siyan: "..."
Yuanye stared at Zhou Li, clenching his hands into fists, thinking about Jiang Mingzhu's suffering along the way, and then looking at Zhou Li's attitude.
He wanted to hit someone.
Zhou Li glanced downwards, "You have to do something for her."
This sentence made Yuan Ye calm down a lot. He took a deep breath and said, "Okay, it's okay if you end it like this. Just make it clear to her."
Yuanye was worried that Jiang Mingzhu couldn't think about it, so he turned around and went back to the ward.
Xu Siyan looked at Zhou Li, "Fourth brother, what are you doing - are you still investigating that matter?"
——
As soon as Yuanye opened the door to the ward, he saw Jiang Mingzhu sitting on the ground hugging her knees. Her face was full of despair, and her shoulders were still shaking slightly.
Yuan Ye went up and squatted in front of her, gently pulled her arm, and his voice became much softer: "Zhu Zhu?"
Jiang Mingzhu came back to her senses and looked at him, her pale lips moved, "It's all over."
Yuanye: "Get up first."
Jiang Mingzhu was so dizzy that she put her arm on Yuanye's arm to get up, but fell back again.
"Forget it, let me hug you." Yuanye picked up Jiang Mingzhu, brought her to the bed, and then sat down opposite her.
Jiang Mingzhu looked calmer than before. She wiped the tears on her face, "Isn't it ugly?"
Yuan Ye: "It's quite ugly."
As he spoke, he took out a tissue and wiped her nose, "Your nose is full of mucus."
Jiang Mingzhu could tell that he was trying to liven up the atmosphere and wanted to make her happy. After all, she was someone who had just been "broke in love."
Yuanye: "What did he tell you?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Just those words, and let Liang Cong handle my resignation tomorrow."
I have already mentioned my resignation, and I am determined to give up.
Yuan Ye: "If you resign, just resign. It's just a good time for you to take good care of yourself."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Yeah."
Yuan Ye: "Would you like to eat a small cake?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Huh?"
Yuan Ye: "As you said before, you will feel better after eating it."
After saying that, Fang Qinyang happened to be back, and Yuanye happened to take over her shift and went out to buy a small cake for Jiang Mingzhu.
After leaving Yuanye, Fang Qinyang couldn't help but say: "He is really nice."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Yeah, I like it."
Fang Qinyang: "What did Zhou Li just say?"
Jiang Mingzhu's smile disappeared within a second. She rubbed her temples and repeated what had just happened to Fang Qinyang.
Fang Qinyang was stunned: "Does he trust Zhan Yubai so much?"
Jiang Mingzhu couldn't answer. She always felt that something was wrong with this matter. Zhou Li's IQ didn't seem to be that easy to fool.
Unless Zhan Yubai did something again.
Fang Qinyang: "Then what should we do next?"
Without Zhou Li's help, Jiang Mingzhu's personal safety would not be guaranteed first, and she might not be able to stay in this hospital.
In any other place, Zhan Yubai would have found a way to deal with her.
Fang Qinyang: "Why don't we go back to Hong Kong first, or go back to New York for a while, and then come back after the limelight has passed."
Jiang Mingzhu lowered her head and said nothing. She was unwilling to give in.
It took a lot of effort to get to this point, and the evidence is already available. Why can Zhan Yubai escape unscathed?
After a long silence, Jiang Mingzhu and Fang Qinyang made their decisions: "Let's leave the hospital first."
No matter what, she couldn't joke with her own life. If Zhou Li left her alone, she might die here at any time.
It would be hard to ask Yuanye for help for this matter for a while.
——
After Yuanye came back with the cake, he heard Jiang Mingzhu say that he was going to be discharged from the hospital.
He didn't object, he just said, "Let's find you a family doctor. You need someone to take care of you. Do you have an aunt at home? I'll arrange one for you too."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Thank you."
Yuan Ye: "Be so polite to me."
He opened the cake box and said, "Eat first and then talk."
Jiang Mingzhu took it and started eating the cake.
After eating a few mouthfuls, her mood did improve, and it also replenished the energy she had spent just acting.
Zhou Li wants to break up with her, but she doesn't want it to be true, but any sadness is just an excuse.
Yuanye saw Jiang Mingzhu's mood improved and rubbed her hair happily: "She's so good."
When Xu Siyan stopped at the door of the ward, he happened to see this scene.
