Zhou Li looked at him with a dangerous expression: "What do you mean?"
Xu Siyan: "It's not interesting. Fourth brother is not in good health. Let's have dinner while it's hot."
Zhou Li: "Did you do it on purpose?"
Xu Siyan: "No."
"I just met Liang Cong. He said that your situation is not very good. I came to check on you."
There was nothing wrong with Xu Siyan's words, but when they reached Zhou Li's ears, the taste changed. He always felt that he was mocking.
Zhou Li: "You are here for Jiang Mingzhu."
It's not a question, it's an affirmation.
And Xu Siyan did not deny it: "She is single and should have the freedom to choose."
Zhou Li: "You want to chase her?"
These words of his were almost squeezed out from between his teeth, and the chilling feeling around him became stronger: "Xu Siyan, this is enough."
Xu Siyan: "She is currently single. You can chase her, Yuanye can chase her, why can't I?"
"The final choice rests with her. Looking at it now, there is no difference between you and me." Xu Siyan was calm from beginning to end. In comparison, Zhou Li seemed a little anxious.
Zhou Li couldn't bear it any longer. He stood up from the sofa and walked to Xu Siyan, grabbing his collar with great force.
Xu Siyan didn't even hide, his eyes swept over his clear and white knuckles.
"It seems that Fourth Brother has fully recovered. I will arrange for you to be discharged from the hospital immediately." He said considerately.
Zhou Li: "..."
——
Jiang Mingzhu felt that she was quite unlucky today.
After "escaping" from Zhou Li's ward, she found that her car's tire was punctured.
Jiang Mingzhu walked in front of the car for a week to accept this reality.
It was obviously fine when it came here, but now it explodes at will.
It was impossible to drive back, and we had to contact the 4S store and insurance company.
After the phone call, Jiang Mingzhu waited in the parking lot for the people from the 4S shop to come over and tow the truck. She was so hungry as she waited.
Jiang Mingzhu's stomach was not in good condition and her stomach hurt when she was hungry. When she was holding her stomach and feeling uncomfortable, a paper bag from a convenience store suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.
Jiang Mingzhu raised her head subconsciously, and then saw Xu Siyan's face.
Xu Siyan: "It's rice balls and soy milk, let's eat some first."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Thank you."
If you have trouble with anyone, you can't have trouble with food. She took it, opened it, took a few bites, and felt much better.
Jiang Mingzhu ate attentively for a few minutes, and when she was no longer so hungry, she realized that Xu Siyan hadn't left.
Jiang Mingzhu: "You won't leave?"
Xu Siyan: "What about you?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "My tire has a puncture, please wait for the store to send someone over."
Xu Siyan leaned over and took a look: "It looks like it was punctured."
Jiang Mingzhu: "I don't know either."
Xu Siyan: "Why did you come to the hospital?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "I was tricked."
She didn't tell Xu Siyan about the contract. There was no need to explain too much.
Xu Siyan: "You know he lied to you and why are you still here?"
Jiang Mingzhu was a little unhappy when she was told that, and glared at Xu Siyan: "I only found out that I was cheated after I came here. Do you think I'm stupid?"
Xu Siyan had never seen Jiang Mingzhu look so lively and agile. Although he was scolded by her, he was not unhappy at all and even stared at her for a long time.
Not long after Jiang Mingzhu finished eating the rice balls, the people from the 4S store finally arrived.
She finished checking in with the staff, watched them tow the car away, and planned to call a ride home.
As a result, Xu Siyan suddenly said: "Let's have a meal together."
Jiang Mingzhu: "?"
She and Xu Siyan didn't seem to know each other well enough to have dinner together.
Xu Siyan: "Strictly speaking, I played some part in the case."
Xu Siyan was not lying. When he was in southern Yunnan, Jiang Mingzhu
I often hear Zhou Li talking on the phone with Xu Siyan and Yuan Ye.
But she didn't know exactly how the three of them cooperated.
Jiang Mingzhu doesn't like to owe favors. Since Xu Siyan helped her, there's no problem in having a meal: "Oh, let me treat you to express my gratitude."
Xu Siyan: "Okay."
He pointed to the parking space and said, "Get in the car."
Jiang Mingzhu did not sit in the passenger seat and sat in the back seat like last time. Xu Siyan did not force her.
When he lowered his head to fasten his seat belt, the corners of Xu Siyan's mouth raised slightly.
He made the right bet.
He knew that Jiang Mingzhu was the kind of person who didn't want to owe others favors.
In fact, Xu Siyan had no intention of "morally kidnapping" her through this incident.
But when he thought that Zhou Li had already started acting, he really couldn't hold himself back.
It was the first time in his life that he was attracted to a woman, and he didn't want it to end this way.
Jiang Mingzhu chose the restaurant, and the waiter took them to the booth by the window.
After ordering, Xu Siyan stared at Jiang Mingzhu for a long time.
Her condition was much better than when she was at Yuanyin Manor a few days ago.
Xu Siyan: "How are you doing lately?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "It's okay."
Xu Siyan: "I heard from Liangliang that you went to work for her foundation."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Oh, I have nothing to do since I have to wait for the lawsuit, so I will go and help her."
Xu Siyan: "Well, I heard from the police that it may take about a year."
Jiang Mingzhu: "How far have they reached in their investigation now?"
When talking about the case, Jiang Mingzhu talked more and her attitude was much more enthusiastic than before.
Xu Siyan: "The police are currently investigating other employees of Su Min's laboratory. There are many people. For the time being, they have only found out that they exchanged inspection reports for Zhan Yubai."
Jiang Mingzhu poked the steak with a fork: "So Zhan Yubai's kidneys are not missing at all, right?"
Xu Siyan: "Yeah."
The physical examination that Yan Bei arranged for Zhan Yubai, and he looked at the report with his own eyes, but something went wrong.
Su Min is a person with some abilities.
After chatting about the case for a while, Jiang Mingzhu and Xu Siyan gradually became more familiar with each other.
Xu Siyan endured it for a long time before asking: "Do you still hate me now?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "It's okay."
"Actually, I didn't hate you very much before." Because she basically didn't take the words he scolded her seriously.
Xu Siyan choked and felt a little bitter in his throat.
He had already thought of this answer.
When he spoke harshly to Jiang Mingzhu before, Jiang Mingzhu's sadness and weakness were basically just for show.
She is not even afraid of death, so why would she care about this.
Xu Siyan: "Jiang Mingzhu, I can't bear it anymore."
His head felt hot, and he said what he had been holding in his heart for a long time: "I like you, and I want to chase you."
Jiang Mingzhu was eating steak and suddenly choked when she heard these words.
She put down her fork and began to cough. After a few coughs, she suddenly felt retching.
Jiang Mingzhu waved her hand to Xu Siyan and hurried to the bathroom.
Jiang Mingzhu coughed into the sink for a long time, and her throat suddenly felt hot when she coughed for the last time.
When he lowered his head, there was blood in the pool.
Jiang Mingzhu frowned, raised her hand and touched the corner of her lips, and there was a smear of blood on her fingertips.
Jiang Mingzhu stared at her fingertips, her eyelids twitching more and more.
——
Jiang Mingzhu's trip took a long time.
She came back only when Xu Siyan was about to go find her in person.
Seeing Jiang Mingzhu's pale face and lips, Xu Siyan frowned: "What's wrong with you?"
