Xu Siyan discovered that Jiang Mingzhu had two states when her emotions were ups and downs.
One is just as silent as before without saying a word, and the other is just talking to himself like he is now.
Completely two extremes.
Xu Siyan couldn't tell which one of the two was better, but for him, it was easier for Jiang Mingzhu to speak than not to speak.
Xu Siyan gave Jiang Mingzhu the names of several places.
Jiang Mingzhu: "Okay, you can lead the way."
——
In the blink of an eye, four days have passed since Jiang Mingzhu and Xu Siyan went to Nancheng to play together.
On the night of the fourth day, Zhou Li finally saw the flight information of Jiang Mingzhu and Xu Siyan.
The two of them went to Nancheng for four days and five nights.
Zhou Li stared at the flight information on the screen, his fingers clenched into fists, and his knuckles were about to penetrate the skin.
Zhou Li didn't dare to think about what they had done in the past few days and whether they slept in the same room at night.
If Jiang Mingzhu does to Xu Siyan what she once did to him——
Thinking of this, Zhou Li slammed his fist on the desk.
As soon as Liang Cong came in, Zhou Li was startled by his actions. He wanted to go back but it was too late, so he could only bite the bullet and speak: "Mr. Zhou, the event planning plan has come out."
Zhou Li: "Bring it."
Liang Cong hurriedly walked to the desk and handed over the folder.
When Zhou Li took the hand, Liang Cong saw that the back of his hand was red and bloodshot.
Liang Cong: "Mr. Zhou, your hands——"
Halfway through his words, Zhou Li gave him a cold look, and Liang Cong shut up at the right moment.
Zhou Li opened the plan and browsed.
Liang Cong was so angry that he didn't dare to breathe.
Fortunately, Zhou Li said "no problem" in the end, and Liang Cong quickly escaped from the office.
After working as Zhou Li's assistant for so many years, Liang Cong originally thought that his psychological quality had been developed.
But Zhou Li seems to be possessed by an evil spirit recently, his temper is even weirder than before, and he seems to dislike everyone.
Looking back carefully now, Liang Cong suddenly felt that the most relaxing stage for him was actually the period when Jiang Mingzhu was in Wanhua.
Liang Cong couldn't help but sigh, when will Jiang Mingzhu return to Wanhua?
Instead of being an assistant, she could just be the boss's wife, so Zhou Li could suppress his anger.
——
Nearly half a month has passed since the confrontation with Zhou Li at the door of the Prime Minister's Villa that day.
The weather is getting warmer day by day, and summer is also ushering in Beicheng.
Fu Muye has negotiated the land, and the school has found a construction team to start laying the foundation.
Other projects and volunteer activities of the Sesame Foundation are also going on as scheduled.
However, Jiang Mingzhu never met Zhou Li again during this period, nor did she receive any calls or WeChat messages from him.
Jiang Mingzhu occasionally saw Zhou Li in the financial news, just like before.
Judging from the photos and videos, Zhou Li is still high-spirited and aloof, as if nothing can affect him.
Jiang Mingzhu thinks this is good. This is the trajectory they should each have.
Jiang Mingzhu thought that the fact that she and Xu Siyan were "getting together" must have completely hurt Zhou Li's self-esteem.
Don't let Zhou Li take the initiative to come to her. Even if she regrets it and kneels in front of Zhou Li to beg him, he will just kick her away.
But that sentence is correct. It takes a thousand lies to tell a lie.
Jiang Mingzhu did deceive everyone and made them all think that she was in love with Xu Siyan.
But this also means that she must continue to act with Xu Siyan.
Therefore, during this period of time, Jiang Mingzhu would "date" with Xu Siyan almost every day, playing the role of a couple in love.
This day happened to coincide with a chamber of commerce event, and Jiang Mingzhu was taken to the reception by Xu Siyan as his girlfriend.
Jiang Mingzhu never thought about it before going
I will meet Zhou Li here.
Because when she worked as an assistant to Zhou Li before, he rarely attended cocktail parties of this nature.
But Zhou Li not only came today, he also brought a woman with him.
Jiang Mingzhu met them at the entrance of the banquet hall, and her eyes met Zhou Li's unexpectedly.
I don't know whether it was because the indoor air conditioner was turned on too low or for other reasons, but a chill ran down Jiang Mingzhu's back.
Zhou Li looked at her like a stranger, with impatience and disgust.
This look in her eyes reminded Jiang Mingzhu of the time when she first tried to hook up with him.
To be precise, Zhou Li now should be more disgusting to her than Zhou Li back then.
Jiang Mingzhu felt extremely uncomfortable and moved her eyes to the side to look at the woman next to Zhou Li.
Jiang Mingzhu had never seen her before, she was a new face.
But she has a very good temperament, is cold and quiet, and has an otherworldly feeling.
There was no intimate behavior between Zhou Li and her, but as long as they stood together, their temperaments matched well.
Jiang Mingzhu didn't know what their relationship was and didn't want to ask.
Finally, it was Xu Siyan who spoke to them: "Fourth brother."
Zhou Li ignored Xu Siyan, walked past them indifferently, and left without looking back.
The tugging feeling in Jiang Mingzhu's heart became more and more intense. She lowered her head and raised her hand to touch her left atrium.
Xu Siyan: "I didn't know he would come too."
Xu Siyan just wanted to take Jiang Mingzhu to a change of environment to relax, otherwise it would be boring to eat and watch movies every day, "I'll take you back."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Why do you want to go back?"
Xu Siyan: "..."
Jiang Mingzhu seemed to be suddenly inspired to fight. She grabbed Xu Siyan's arm and said, "Let's go, I can't hide from him forever."
Xu Siyan: "Are you sure?"
Jiang Mingzhu asked instead, "Did he fall out with you?"
Xu Siyan: "The cooperation with the company has not stopped, and there is indeed no contact in private."
Jiang Mingzhu: "I'm sorry, maybe you have to endure it for a while longer, waiting for me to die... um."
Before she could finish a complete sentence, Xu Siyan covered her mouth.
He frowned and said seriously: "Don't talk nonsense."
Later, when Xu Siyan let go, Jiang Mingzhu said, "As long as you understand what I mean."
——
Not only Jiang Mingzhu and Xu Siyan didn't expect Zhou Li to attend the reception, but no one else did either.
Zhou Li has a noble status and a distinguished background. Whenever he appears on such an occasion, he is the focus of the crowd.
And the woman who followed him became the heroine that people talked about.
When Jiang Mingzhu went to the bathroom, she learned the name of the woman next to Zhou Li, Ruan Yi, from the mouths of several women outside.
Just listening to the name, it matches Zhou Li very well.
I heard from this group of people that Ruan Yi's parents are both university professors, but her grandfather is a businessman. The Ruan family seems to have encountered some problems now and needs to get married.
Now that Ruan Yi was brought to such an occasion by Zhou Li, it inevitably aroused a lot of speculation.
But no one dared to talk about Zhou Li's gossip, so the discussion focused on Ruan Yi.
But it sounds like Ruan Yi doesn't usually hang out in circles. Jiang Mingzhu waited for a long time and didn't hear any valuable information.
It's basically a group of people spreading rumors out of jealousy.
Jiang Mingzhu didn't believe this. After applying makeup, she went out to find Xu Siyan.
But after walking around the banquet hall, no one saw him.
