It's not easy to park here, so Zhou Li finally drove the car to the door of the villa and stopped.
When Zhou Li got out of the car and was about to walk through the gate, someone behind him suddenly called his name.
Zhou Li turned around and recognized He Chuyan at a glance.
Zhou Li had checked He Chuyan's information as early as when Jiang Mingzhu first approached him.
While he was thinking, He Chuyan had already walked up to him: "Hello, I am Zhuzhu's mother, He Chuyan."
Although He Chuyan's attitude toward Zhou Li was polite but distant, her smiles were formulaic.
Zhou Li nodded slightly: "Hello, I am Zhou Li."
He Chuyan glanced in the direction of the villa door: "Are you here to see Zhuzhu?"
Zhou Li: "Yeah."
He Chuyan: "Would you mind chatting with me for a few words?"
Zhou Li: "I don't mind."
He Chuyan's words did not have a strong sense of oppression, but Zhou Li unconsciously tightened his fists.
He Chuyan glanced at her watch and said with a smile, "It's not convenient to talk about things here. Let's go find a place to sit outside."
Zhou Li immediately heard the implication. He Chuyan didn't want him to find Jiang Mingzhu.
Zhou Li and He Chuyan went to a Western restaurant near the Xiangfu Villa area. The cost here was high and there were not many people.
After ordering the meal, He Chuyan said with a smile: "I'll treat you to this meal. Zhuzhu has caused you trouble during this time."
Zhou Li: "..."
He Chuyan's "polite" words were even more uncomfortable than Zheng Linxu's warnings and questions.
Zhou Li knew very well that He Chuyan must have a lot of dissatisfaction with him, and he would not be able to escape these topics later.
He Chuyan: "Ye Gu's matter has been a knot in Zhu Zhu's heart these years. She may be a little extreme on this matter, and it must have caused a lot of trouble for you."
Zhou Li: "...No."
He Chuyan: "Objectively speaking, you did not know about this matter, and you should not be blamed."
"Now that you and Mr. Zheng are jointly investigating, Zhuzhu will not bother you again. For what happened before, I apologize to you as Zhuzhu's mother." He Chuyan said with a gentle attitude. Every word he said was very polite and elegant.
But Zhou Li could hear her true intentions——
He Chuyan hinted at him and reminded him not to disturb Jiang Mingzhu's life in the future.
Zhou Li had some difficulty breathing. After digesting these words with an expressionless face, he took a deep breath.
"I like Jiang Mingzhu." Zhou Li said this under He Chuyan's gaze.
He Chuyan was not surprised that Zhou Li would say this: "I had already guessed it when you arranged for your eldest brother to pick you up at the airport in person."
"Do you want to hear my true thoughts?" He Chuyan asked.
Zhou Li: "You disagree."
He Chuyan: "Zhuzhu is a person with a very upright idea. If it is what she wants to do, it is useless for her father and I to object. Just like when she comes to Beicheng to find you, we can't stop her."
"Similarly, if she really identifies with someone, even if the whole world opposes it, she will still be with him."
Zhou Li's hand tightened tighter and tighter.
He Chuyan knows how to kill people and kill people.
She didn't say she objected, but told him in this way that Jiang Mingzhu didn't like him, let alone do anything for him.
This is more painful than a direct showdown of opposition.
Zhou Li: "You are here to let me go."
The moment he said these words, he realized that his voice had become hoarse.
He Chuyan had a clear view of Zhou Li's reaction.
She saw his forbearance, pain, struggle and sadness.
The face went from being expressionless at first to a storm in his eyes. By this time, his eyes were so red that they were almost bleeding.
He Chuyan: "You are a sensible person. You should know how important Ye Gu is to Zhu Zhu. Although your mother does not know, Ye Gu's kidney
Indeed, in her case, even if Zhan Yubai was punished by law, it would not change the fact that I would not kill Boren, but Boren died because of me. This is a gap between you that can never be crossed. "
Zhou Li pinched the glass of water, his knuckles turned white, and the suffocation in his chest made his eyes darken.
After a long time, he spoke: "I know everything you said."
Zhou Li's voice was rough and dull, "But I don't want to let go."
He Chuyan: "Many people and things in this world cannot be obtained by fighting for them."
"I am very grateful for your love for Zhuzhu, and I admire your persistence, but my attitude will not change her choice."
Zhou Li: "..."
At this time, the waiter came to serve the food. He Chuyan said, "Eat something first. You should be very hungry just after get off work."
Zhou Li: "How is she?"
After mentioning Jiang Mingzhu's situation, Zhou Li obviously saw that He Chuyan's movements were slightly stiff and paused.
Zhou Li's heart sank to the bottom.
He Chuyan: "The situation is not very good."
Zhou Li: "Has her condition relapsed?"
He Chuyan took a deep breath: "To be precise, her illness has never recovered."
Zhou Li frowned, with confusion on his face.
He Chuyan: "Recovery was all a show she staged in order to trick us into agreeing to her coming to Beicheng to investigate the truth."
Zhou Li's body temperature dropped gradually, and his ten fingers were already cold.
He Chuyan: "She is so powerful that even psychiatrists were fooled by her. She memorized all the answers to the test scales in advance."
Zhou Li: "She... lied to you?"
He thought Jiang Mingzhu would only lie to him, but he didn't expect that she had deceived so many people at once.
He Chuyan saw Zhou Li's disbelief and laughed at herself: "Yes, for her brother, she can lie to the whole world."
Zhou Li was speechless.
He Chuyan: "You may think that Zhuzhu and my husband and I have a very good relationship now, but in fact, at the beginning, she was very reluctant to be adopted by us, because that would mean that she would be separated from her brother. .”
He Chuyan and Zhou Li talked a lot about the things between Jiang Mingzhu and Pei Ye.
When Zhou Li learned that Jiang Mingzhu only started getting close to He Chuyan and Jiang Guming after they paid for Pei Ye's medical expenses, his knuckles almost crushed.
Everything she did was for Pei Ye.
He Chuyan: "Ye Gu is the spiritual support for her to survive. She has been living to find out the truth these years, otherwise..."
At this point, He Chuyan's voice became a little difficult, "She will not give up on herself and risk everything she has."
Zhou Li's chest was rising and falling, and the ends of his eyes were getting moist.
He moved his lips and wanted to speak, but found that his throat seemed to be blocked and he couldn't make any sound at all.
He Chuyan's eyes were also a little red, but she did not cry: "She never thought about continuing to live."
Zhou Li gritted his teeth.
He Chuyan's words confirmed Xu Siyan's previous guess.
Zhou Li: "Is there any other way?"
He Chuyan: "We are trying to find a way to give her the meaning of living."
"When everything is settled, I don't want anyone related to this matter to appear in her life again."
This was the ultimate purpose of her conversation with Zhou Li, "I hope you can understand my feelings."
