Although she didn't speak to the other party just now, Zhou Li could tell her identity.
One of Zheng Linxu's sisters, the woman Zhou Yi talked about that day.
Zheng Pianqing is only one year older than him, but her temperament is quite different from Zhou Li's imagination. Based on his understanding of Zhou Yi, it doesn't seem like she likes this "simple and elegant" type.
And the identity of that child——
——
As soon as Fu Xiaozhi saw Zheng Linxu coming back, she couldn't wait to ask him, "What did you say to Thursday?"
Zheng Lin said: "Say hello."
Fu Xiaozhi: "I thought you were going to hit him."
Zheng Lin said: "A gentleman speaks with words but never with hands."
Fu Xiaozhi snorted, which meant that Zheng Linxu didn't know that Zhou Li had bullied Jiang Mingzhu a few days ago, so he didn't believe that he could still refrain from doing anything if he knew about it.
Jiang Mingzhu: "Okay, let's not talk about him on this beautiful day. Let's eat and eat."
I will skip the topic of Zhou Li.
Sansan’s birthday was a complete success. The family played outside until the evening before going back.
Jiang Mingzhu was so tired that she lay on the bed after taking a shower. Not long after, Yuanye sent a WeChat message: [When will you come back? 】
Jiang Mingzhu hasn't booked a return ticket yet: [Maybe next week. 】
Yuanye: [It’s been so long, I’m going to make a fuss. 】
Jiang Mingzhu: [You miss me so much~]
Yuanye: [You know nothing about your own charm. 】
Jiang Mingzhu: [I’ll bring you a gift back, you’re welcome. 】
While Jiang Mingzhu was chatting with Yuanye, Zhou Li sent her another message.
Zhou Li: [Are you still angry?]
Jiang Mingzhu's facial features wrinkled up. Was he asking about what happened that night? Is his reflex arc so long?
Jiang Mingzhu guessed that Zhou Li might be trying to find a reason to talk to her, but he hadn't given up yet.
Jiang Mingzhu ignored Zhou Li.
Zhou Li: [I asked Zhou Yi]
This time he threw the strongest bait directly at her.
Jiang Mingzhu admitted that she was a little moved, but she knew that Zhou Li would never tell her easily, so she still ignored him.
Zhou Li later sent three or four messages, but Jiang Mingzhu pretended to be dead and refused to reply.

hotel.
Zhou Li sat on the bed with his mobile phone and stared at WeChat intently.
It's been almost half an hour, and Jiang Mingzhu hasn't replied to his message.
Did he fall asleep or didn't reply on purpose?
This question was answered after seeing Jiang Mingzhu’s circle of friends.
Jiang Mingzhu posted a nine-square grid photo in her circle of friends, which she took with Sansan on her birthday today. The middle one was a "family portrait" of her, Sansan, Zheng Linxu and Zheng Pianqing.
The post was posted on Moments a minute ago, and Yuan Ye has already liked and commented below.
Yuanye: [Beauty is always so beautiful [blowing kiss]]
Zhou Li's face tightened, his lips pursed into a line, his eyes were stern, hiding anger.
He wanted to withdraw from the circle of friends with an expressionless face, but saw Jiang Mingzhu's reply to Yuanye again.
Jiang Mingzhu: [Handsome guy, you have such a sweet mouth, are you waiting for my gift? 】
Zhou Li's anger reached the critical point, and he vented it into a sneer: "Heh."
She didn’t reply to his messages, but was having a heated fight in the circle of friends and in the wilderness.
Also buy gifts.
Zhou Li threw away his cell phone and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. The bustling night view of New York made his chest feel more and more irritated.

Jiang Mingzhu stayed in New York for another three days, and took a flight to Beicheng on Monday morning the next week.
Zheng Linxu and Zheng Pianqing took Sansan to the airport to see them off, but they met Zhou Li and Zhou Yi at the airport.
The two of them were also dragging suitcases, and they were obviously here to catch a flight.
Jiang Mingzhu: "..."
Fu Xiaozhi: "Damn it, why is he still there?"
Fu Xiaozhi’s words
After Gang finished speaking, Zhou Yi and Zhou Li had already walked up. Zhou Li still had the iceberg face dragging his suitcase, while Zhou Yi was smiling.
As soon as the two brothers approached, Jiang Mingzhu's eyes turned to Zhou Yi's face.
Zhou Yi was looking at Zheng Pianqing and Sansan with ambiguous eyes, but his words were addressed to Zheng Lin: "Mr. Zheng, we meet again."
Zheng Linxu's face had lost its usual gentleness, and a sharp look flashed in his amber eyes.
Jiang Mingzhu and Fu Xiaozhi also noticed this detail.
Zhou Yi went to see Jiang Mingzhu and Fu Xiaozhi: "Are you also on the 10:30 flight?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Yeah."
Zhou Yi: "That's right. Let's check in together. I have a companion."
Jiang Mingzhu glanced at Zhou Li. He didn't speak the whole time, probably because he was afraid that Zhou Yi would see something wrong.
Several adults had their own thoughts, but Sansan didn't understand anything: "Mom, you scratched me and hurt me."
Her features scrunched up and she looked at her hands with a pout.
Zheng Pianqing's expression paused slightly, and she quickly let go to check: "I'm sorry, mom didn't pay attention."
Sansan: "It doesn't matter~"
Zhou Li felt that Sansan's tone of voice was somewhat familiar.
Oh, like Jiang Mingzhu.
Zheng Pianqing looked very unhappy, which both Jiang Mingzhu and Fu Xiaozhi could see.
Jiang Mingzhu: "You guys should go back first. Zhizhi and I should go to the border inspection."
Zheng Lin said: "Well, be careful along the way and tell me when you get there."
Zheng Pianqing: "Take care of yourself."
Sansan went up to hug Jiang Mingzhu, pressed her head, and kissed her heavily on the face.
Jiang Mingzhu looked happy and enjoying it.
Zhou Li tightened his grip on the suitcase handle.

After completing the boarding process, Jiang Mingzhu and Fu Xiaozhi arrived at the VIP waiting area.
Fu Xiaozhi went to buy coffee, while Jiang Mingzhu sat alone.
Not long after, Zhou Li and Zhou Yi arrived, and they sat opposite her.
Jiang Mingzhu guessed from Zhou Yi's various behaviors that he probably didn't know about the incident between her and Zhou Li, so it was difficult to drive him away.
Zhou Yi: "I always hear Yuanye mention you."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Huh? Did he say bad things about me?"
Zhou Yi: "That's not to say that I am praising you."
There was a hint of ridicule in his tone: "You are the most special girl he has ever seen, and you are different from others."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Really?"
Zhou Yi: "Of course, otherwise why would he take you to meet your parents?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "My pleasure."
Zhou Yi: "Looking at your good relationship, are you getting married soon?"
After asking this question, Zhou Yi could feel the cold breath coming from the people around him without even looking sideways.
I'm anxious and jealous.
Jiang Mingzhu didn't quite know how to answer Zhou Yi's question, so she could only laugh it off.
Fortunately, Fu Xiaozhi came back, and Jiang Mingzhu took the coffee and donuts and started eating them.
Next, Fu Xiaozhi and Zhou Yi were chatting. Jiang Mingzhu concentrated on eating, and Zhou Li sat beside him silently.
It didn't take long for them to board the plane. The four of them were all in first class, and Zhou Li's seat was right diagonally behind Jiang Mingzhu.
Just look up and you can see her out of the corner of your eye.
The international flight took a long time. Jiang Mingzhu and Fu Xiaozhi watched a movie for a while and then fell asleep.
Zhou Li glanced over there and rang the bell to call the stewardess.
Stewardess: "Sir, do you need any help?"
Zhou Li pointed at Jiang Mingzhu.
The flight attendant understood instantly: "Okay, sir, I'll get the blanket right now."
The flight attendant took two blankets to cover Jiang Mingzhu and Fu Xiaozhi, and then nodded to Zhou Li.
Zhou Li: "Thank you."
