The car stopped at the Xiangfu Villa for five minutes, and Zhou Li stared intently through the rearview mirror for five minutes.
Finally, he got out of the car with a calm face, opened the back seat door and pushed Jiang Mingzhu on the shoulder.
Jiang Mingzhu did not sleep deeply and did not respond.
Zhou Li pushed a second time and a third time.
Jiang Mingzhu finally made some noise.
She twisted her body, her movements filled with dissatisfaction, her nose humming, her lips moving slightly, "Don't bother me..."
After she finished speaking, her hand held down Zhou Li's arm.
Zhou Li lowered his eyes and looked at her slender, white fingers, feeling the soft touch, and his lips stretched into a line.
A few seconds later, Zhou Li took the person out of the car, carried him on his shoulders and walked into the villa courtyard.
The Xiangfu villa has a fingerprint and password lock, which has not changed in the two years since Jiang Mingzhu moved away.
Zhou Li held Jiang Mingzhu's hand, pasted the fingerprint identification area, and successfully opened the door.
After entering, Zhou Li put Jiang Mingzhu on the sofa and sat beside him.
His eyes stayed on her for less than a minute, and the one lying on the sofa began to act erratically, clamoring for a drink of water.
Jiang Mingzhu's wild and willful energy is no different from before.
Zhou Li just looked at it without responding verbally.
When there was no response, Jiang Mingzhu became a little angry, "I want to drink water, Yuanye, do you hear me? Go quickly..."
Hearing Yuanye's name from her mouth, Zhou Li's eyes instantly darkened to the extreme.
Zhou Li still didn't respond, so he got up from the sofa and headed towards the kitchen without looking back.
A few minutes later, Zhou Li brought a glass of warm water to Jiang Mingzhu.
It was impossible to expect her to wake up and drink on her own, so Zhou Li could only feed her with a straw.
Jiang Mingzhu was quite cooperative, probably because she was really thirsty, so she drank more than half the cup in one breath.
After Jiang Mingzhu finished drinking, Zhou Li put the water glass on the coffee table.
The moment he turned around, Jiang Mingzhu suddenly put her head on his lap.
Zhou Li stiffened and suddenly turned to look at her.
At this time Jiang Mingzhu opened her eyes drowsily.
Zhou Li didn't know what she was thinking, but the confused look in her eyes probably meant she was not awake.
"Zhou Li..." She suddenly called his name.
Zhou Li didn't respond.
Jiang Mingzhu sniffed, and when she spoke again, her voice was a little aggrieved: "You ignored me in the dream."
After hearing these words, Zhou Li was already sure that she was not sober.
Zhou Li looked down at her face, his lips moved slightly, and his words had no warmth, "What right do you have to be aggrieved?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Yeah...I'm not qualified."
She had always been sharp-tongued, but this time she suddenly stopped refuting. She lowered her head dejectedly, her voice trembling pitifully, "You already like someone else."
Zhou Li: "It's good that you know."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Well..."
She didn't know where the strength came from, and she suddenly sat up and straddled him with one foot.
Zhou Li was not mentally prepared for the long-lost touch and familiar breath, and his desire surged like a sudden wave.
He placed his hands on both sides of his body motionless, and his deep eyes were locked on her face.
Jiang Mingzhu hugged Zhou Li's neck and kissed his Adam's apple.
She was indeed unconscious and thought she was dreaming. In addition, she had been repeatedly stimulated in the past few days, which was why she was so reckless.
Zhou Li suddenly pressed Jiang Mingzhu's waist.
Jiang Mingzhu snorted, "Brother... I miss you so much, hmm."
Before the words could even be finished, the slightly parted lips were sealed, a turbulent kiss fell, and the right to breathe was robbed.
Jiang Mingzhu's already red cheeks were now even more rosy, as if they were dripping with blood.
and breathing
What was also taken away was her consciousness, and her body was floating more and more fiercely.
——
Six o'clock in the morning.
Jiang Mingzhu woke up from the pain all over her body.
She turned over and opened her eyes, and the next second she saw Zhou Li standing by the bed getting dressed.
The sleepyhead ran away in an instant, and Jiang Mingzhu regained consciousness almost instantly.
She sat up from the bed suddenly, and when she looked down, she realized that she was naked.
Jiang Mingzhu immediately pulled up the sheet to cover her body.
But she still saw the hickeys on her shoulders and chest.
There was also the feeling of soreness all over her body. She was not an inexperienced person, so she immediately realized what was going on.
Jiang Mingzhu looked at Zhou Li who was buttoning up opposite him, and beautiful scenes flashed through her mind.
Last night...wasn't it a dream?
Jiang Mingzhu clutched the sheets tightly.
She remembered that she took the initiative.
She thought she was dreaming again, that's why she was like that.
Jiang Mingzhu's expression was a little embarrassed. She licked her lips and wanted to say something, but Zhou Li's cell phone rang.
Zhou Li's cell phone was still on the bed. When Jiang Mingzhu heard the sound, she looked over and saw Xu Yingfei's name on the screen.
Jiang Mingzhu's hands gripped the sheets tighter.
Seeing that name now was like a slap in the face.
When Jiang Mingzhu was embarrassed, Zhou Li had already picked up the phone.
In the quiet bedroom, Xu Yingfei's voice on the phone sounded extremely clear, "Good morning."
Zhou Li: "Good morning, why didn't you sleep more?"
Xu Yingfei: "I want to go see a house today, but I can't sleep."
Zhou Li: "I'll pick you up later."
Xu Yingfei: "Are you up too? How did you sleep last night?"
Zhou Li: "Yeah."
Xu Yingfei: "Then I'll wait for you."
Zhou Li: "Okay, soon."
Every time the two of them spoke more, Jiang Mingzhu's body temperature would drop a little.
By the time Zhou Li ended the call, Jiang Mingzhu already felt like she was in an ice cellar.
Putting away his phone, Zhou Li glanced at Jiang Mingzhu on the bed, and the two of them just looked at each other.
Zhou Li: "Last night——"
"I drank too much last night." Jiang Mingzhu responded quickly and took over his words, "I recognized the wrong person, so just pretend that nothing happened."
Every word she said contained the meaning of being impatient to draw a clear line with him.
Then there was the mention of mistaken identity.
Zhou Li immediately remembered that she called Yuanye's name when she asked him to pour water yesterday.
Zhou Li: "That's what I want to say too."
Jiang Mingzhu pursed her lips and did not respond.
Zhou Li unlocked the phone again and tapped on the screen with his slender fingers for almost a minute before stopping.
——
Jiang Mingzhu spent almost half an hour taking a bath.
Looking at the marks all over her body, the memory of last night kept invading her mind, making her feel annoyed and regretful.
Drinking will delay things, and you can't drink again in the future.
The strong feeling of guilt was about to engulf her.
Jiang Mingzhu rubbed her temples and absentmindedly went downstairs, but was startled by Zhou Li standing in front of the sofa.
Why hasn't he left yet?
Before Jiang Mingzhu had time to ask, Zhou Li had already walked towards her.
He stopped in front of her and handed over a box of medicine.
After Jiang Mingzhu saw the name of the medicine clearly, her face became a little pale.
Zhou Li: "Just in case."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Okay, I understand."
She took it, but Zhou Li still didn't leave.
Jiang Mingzhu looked up and saw him speaking indifferently, "I need to watch you eat it."
Jiang Mingzhu took a breath.
