After the slap, Jiang Mingzhu's palms became numb.
Handprints quickly appeared on Zhou Li's face, and there was a stern look in his deep eyes.
Jiang Mingzhu didn't know if Zhou Li was in pain, but her hand was getting more and more painful, and the pain made her calm down a little.
After realizing what she had done, Jiang Mingzhu backed away in fear.
Zhou Li didn't give her this chance and grabbed her waist and pulled her back.
The strong and strong arms clamped her tightly, and Jiang Mingzhu felt like her waist was about to be broken by him.
Jiang Mingzhu raised her head, met his bloodshot eyes, and felt the strong killing intent emanating from him.
"Do you want to call back?" Jiang Mingzhu asked.
Zhou Li: "I'm of no use anymore, am I?"
Jiang Mingzhu frowned when Zhou Li asked, what is the use value? Why did he suddenly ask?
At that moment, countless possibilities flashed through Jiang Mingzhu's mind.
With these conjectures, her heartbeat began to accelerate.
Jiang Mingzhu: "I don't know what you are talking about."
Zhou Li snorted, "You know it better than anyone else."
Jiang Mingzhu pursed her lips and said nothing.
Zhou Li: "Jiang Mingzhu, let me ask you one last time."
"Who is the man in your heart?" He asked the question that he had rehearsed countless times before, his eyes locked tightly on her face, not letting go of any of her expressions.
Jiang Mingzhu's heartbeat was getting faster and faster, her chest was depressed and her breathing was short.
Zhou Li tightened his grip on her waist and said, "Speak."
Jiang Mingzhu: "You checked me."
Zhou Li: "Why, you feel guilty."
Jiang Mingzhu: "What did you find out?"
Zhou Li: "Who are you calling, brother?"
As soon as this title came out, Jiang Mingzhu's right eyelid immediately started jumping wildly and couldn't stop it.
She stood motionless as if her soul had been ripped out.
Zhou Li saw her like this for the first time and chuckled mockingly.
He took out his phone from his pocket and clicked on the screen a few times with one hand, then raised the phone and brought it to her.
After Jiang Mingzhu saw the photo of her and Pei Yehu on the phone screen, her mind went completely blank, and even her fingers began to tremble.
Zhou Li took the phone back and pushed her body onto the shoe cabinet.
Her back collided with the edge of the cabinet. The pain finally made Jiang Mingzhu wake up. She grabbed Zhou Li's sleeve and asked, "Where did it come from?"
Her eyes were already red, and her pale face made her look even more pitiful.
His voice and fingers were shaking.
Zhou Li stared at her without saying a word.
Jiang Mingzhu: "I asked you where the photo came from!?"
Zhou Li: "What are you afraid of? He is so shameless?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "You went to Hong Kong City."
Only the orphanage has a backup of this photo. When the Zheng family went to clean up Pei Ye's information, they ignored those group photos.
Jiang Mingzhu's brain reaction speed never disappoints, Zhou Li looked at her and sneered.
Jiang Mingzhu: "What else did you find out?"
Zhou Li: "What are you afraid of?"
Jiang Mingzhu didn't want to play riddles with Zhou Li, but she didn't know how much he had found out, or was Zhan Yubai obstructing it and playing a completely different show for him than the real situation?
Jiang Mingzhu: "I haven't done anything wrong, why should I be afraid?"
Zhou Li: "Thinking about a man sleeping with another man, there is no woman in the world more shameless than you."
Jiang Mingzhu digested Zhou Li's words.
Thinking of a man, does he mean that she thinks of Pei Ye?
Zhou Li thought she liked Pei Ye?
So he broke up with her inexplicably before because he saw this photo and misunderstood her relationship with Pei Ye?
Jiang Mingzhu: "He is my brother.
"
Zhou Li: "Stop saying those two words in front of me."
Jiang Mingzhu: "..."
She suddenly remembered that when she called him "brother" a few times before, he seemed to be disgusted and even called him disgusting.
Is it because of this?
Jiang Mingzhu, who had always been eloquent, was a little speechless at this moment. It was really difficult for her to understand Zhou Li's brain circuit.
He repeatedly struggled with this issue. It seemed that he did not know her true purpose of approaching him, but was angry because "the woman who cheated on me actually liked someone."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Whether you believe it or not, I have no feelings for him."
"He and I were adopted by the orphanage on the same day. To me, he is my only family." Jiang Mingzhu looked at Zhou Li's eyebrows that gradually widened. "You kicked me inexplicably before. Is that because of this?"
Zhou Li still stared at her without saying a word.
Jiang Mingzhu: "If you want to see photos, I have many more here."
Zhou Li: "Not interested."
Jiang Mingzhu: "If you act like this, I'll think you're jealous."
Zhou Li: "By you?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Do you still mean what you say? Seeing a photo of me and other men makes you break your guard like this."
Zhou Li: "..."
Jiang Mingzhu: "You went to check on him, right?"
Zhou Li: "Not interested."
Jiang Mingzhu: "You checked, but you didn't find anything, right?"
He already had the photos, so how could he not check it out based on his temperament? If he really found valuable information, he wouldn't be as incompetent and furious as he is now.
After calming down, Jiang Mingzhu's brain began to operate at high speed like a machine again, making various deductions.
Zhou Li glanced to the side, pursed his lips, and refused to answer her words.
Just like he often couldn't tell whether Jiang Mingzhu was acting, Jiang Mingzhu couldn't tell whether he was acting at this time.
Jiang Mingzhu: "If you want to know anything, you can ask me directly. There is no need to waste time and effort."
Zhou Li sneered sarcastically: "How many truths are there in your mouth?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Do you know why you can't find his information?"
She didn't pay attention to Zhou Li's sarcasm. Under his gaze, she took a deep breath and said, "He passed away."
Maybe this sentence made Zhou Li feel a little guilty. Jiang Mingzhu saw that his eyebrows and expression softened a little bit.
She lowered her eyes and held back tears: "My disease was diagnosed after his death."
Zhou Li: "How did you die?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Organ failure."
In a game with Zhou Li, you have to tell both truth and lies, "He went out to work very early and something happened in the factory."
Zhou Li remained silent for a long time, seemingly considering the truth of her words.
"I know you don't believe me, but please don't humiliate me, let alone hurt me with my dead relatives." Jiang Mingzhu looked into his eyes without being humble or condescending: "Since you can't give me a legitimate identity, just Don’t come to me again.”
Her tears were very sensible and flowed down after saying this.
Zhou Li wiped the tear with his index finger, "You really want me to marry you."
Jiang Mingzhu smiled self-deprecatingly: "Daydreaming, right?"
Zhou Li did not answer.
Jiang Mingzhu: "Do you love Zhan Yubai?"
Zhou Li: "I don't love you."
Jiang Mingzhu originally thought Zhou Li would not answer this question, but she did not expect him to answer so simply.
At that moment, she felt a little excited again.
Then Zhou Li killed her impulse with one sentence.
"This does not prevent me from marrying her."
