Jiang Mingzhu immediately picked up: "What's the matter?"
When she talks to Zhou Li, her voice will unconsciously sound a little more coquettish.
Jiang Mingzhu couldn't feel this herself, but both Qin Mingli and Qin Chongzhi could hear it.
Qin Chongzhi became even more curious because of this - he wanted to see what kind of man could defeat his brother and steal the sister-in-law he was about to get.
Zhou Li: "I'm nearby Yanhe, do you want to take a lunch break?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Eh? Why are you here?"
Zhou Li: "Just take a walk."
Jiang Mingzhu laughed when she heard this answer. It was his style to be so tough.
But because the Qin brothers were sitting across from him, Jiang Mingzhu did not expose him and directly reported the address of the restaurant: "Do you want to come over to see me? I'm having dinner with Qin Mingli and the others."
Zhou Li on the other side of the phone was silent for a few seconds, and finally only replied with two words: "Wait."
Jiang Mingzhu was amused when she heard the busy tone coming from the receiver.
It was also the first time that Qin Mingli saw Jiang Mingzhu smile like this. It was a typical state for people who are immersed in love.
Perhaps only Zhou Li had the ability to let her do this.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Mingzhu and Qin Mingli said, "Zhou Li will be here soon."
Qin Mingli: "Okay."
——
Zhou Li came faster than expected and entered the restaurant in less than ten minutes.
As soon as he walked in, he found Jiang Mingzhu at the window seat of the restaurant.
Zhou Li walked up quickly and stopped beside Jiang Mingzhu naturally.
As soon as he came over, the eyes of the three people at the table fell on him.
Jiang Mingzhu grabbed Zhou Li's arm out of habit, "Here you are, I'll ask the waiter to add some tableware for you."
Zhou Li said "hmm" and was finally pulled to sit down by Jiang Mingzhu.
Qin Chongzhi felt a little unhappy. What was wrong with Jiang Mingzhu's boyfriend? He was so cold and could not see how he was better than his brother.
Qin Mingli waited for Zhou Li to sit down before speaking to him: "Mr. Zhou, long time no see."
Zhou Li: "Yeah."
After replying to Qin Mingli, Zhou Li turned his attention to Qin Chongzhi.
From the moment he came in, he noticed that Qin Chongzhi looked at him in a very unfriendly way.
The reason is self-explanatory.
When Qin Chongzhi saw Zhou Li looking towards him, he asked, "Are you Sister Zhuzhu's boyfriend? Hello."
Although he was unhappy with him, Qin Chongzhi maintained basic courtesy.
Zhou Li: "Yeah."
Qin Chongzhi: "..."
Jiang Mingzhu: "He doesn't talk much, so just leave him alone."
After Zhou Li came, Jiang Mingzhu's attention basically went to him.
After lunch, Jiang Mingzhu and Qin Mingli took the afternoon off. Instead of returning to the company, they spent their time with Zhou Li.
Jiang Mingzhu drove Zhou Li back to the hotel and entered the room with him.
Zhou Li talked very little along the way.
After closing the door, Jiang Mingzhu went up to hug him, raised her eyes and looked at him: "Why haven't you said anything? Are you unhappy?"
Zhou Li: "When will you resign?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "...I may not be able to resign for the time being."
She felt inexplicably guilty when she said this, observing Zhou Li's expression as she spoke.
His expression was indeed more tense than before.
Jiang Mingzhu immediately followed and explained: "I have to hand over my resignation. There are many things I am doing that cannot be abandoned immediately. Qin Mingli cannot recruit people for the time being, so I will take care of it first, but I will work in Beicheng most of the time. of."
Zhou Li was still silent.
Jiang Mingzhu: "I will definitely resign when we get married, don't worry."
Zhou Li: "..."
Jiang Mingzhu's statement directly eliminated the possibility of him continuing to ask.
The Xu Langqing case is not over yet, the two of them will
It is impossible for an individual to get married without any scruples.
Let alone marriage, now he can't even disclose to the public that Jiang Mingzhu is his girlfriend.
"If you are so anxious, why not marry me first?" Jiang Mingzhu moved closer to Zhou Li and said half-jokingly: "If you marry me tomorrow, I will resign tomorrow."
What she said made Zhou Li sober up a lot.
"Now is not the time to talk about marriage." He said, "Wait until I resolve the case."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Isn't that right? We all have things to solve. You can't just ask me to understand you without asking yourself to understand me, right?"
——
As Qin Mingli said, Jiang Mingzhu's subsequent work was arranged in Beicheng.
After returning to Hong Kong City for a week, Jiang Mingzhu flew to Beicheng again on the weekend.
This time she wanted to live permanently, so Jiang Mingzhu simply moved back to the Xiangfu villa, and her life gradually returned to normal.
Before we knew it, it was December, and the temperature in Beicheng dropped a lot.
When Jiang Mingzhu was checking her phone while eating steaming wontons in the morning, she saw the news that Xu Langqing was taken away for investigation by the US police.
Jiang Mingzhu choked, then immediately put down the spoon and concentrated on watching the news.
It was said in the news that Xu Langqing was arrested on suspicion of illegal experiments. Because there were previous cases, the police from both countries jointly investigated.
Although she knew that Zhou Li and Zheng Linxu had been keeping an eye on Xu Langqing, Jiang Mingzhu did not expect that the matter would be resolved so quickly.
It's so fast that it feels unreal.
——When she asked Zhou Li last week, Zhou Li said he had no clues.
Jiang Mingzhu called Zhou Li immediately after reading the news.
As soon as the call was connected, she couldn't wait to ask: "Xu Langqing was taken away by the police for investigation? When did you..."
"It's not me." Zhou Li interrupted Jiang Mingzhu. He had already guessed what she was going to ask.
Jiang Mingzhu: "Eh? What's going on?"
Zhou Li was silent for a few seconds and then said a name: "Jiang Jin."
Jiang Mingzhu: "..."
Isn't Jiang Jin just a bodyguard next to Xu Yingfei? He is so capable?
——
San Diego, USA.
After Xu Langqing was taken away for investigation, the Xu family had become a mess.
Xu Langqing had previously invested heavily in project experiments. After the laboratory was closed, the business of the Xu family's main company and branches were paralyzed.
Not only that, everyone involved in the experiment was brought in for investigation.
No one in the Xu family was spared, and everyone including Xu Yingfei was taken away.
When Xu Yingfei was taken to the police for investigation, her mobile phone was confiscated, and she didn't even have time to contact Zhou Li.
When she talked to Zhou Li on the phone the day before yesterday, Zhou Li hadn't mentioned any clues to her yet.
Unexpectedly, there was a sudden thunderstorm today.
Xu Yingfei could not recover from her surprise until she was taken to the FBI by the police.
When the FBI took people away, they took them separately. Xu Yingfei was taken to the interrogation room alone. Waiting for her inside was the police from Beicheng.
Xu Yingfei had met Captain Liu once before, and Captain Liu knew the identity of her informant very well.
Captain Liu: "We will go through the process together and you can leave after the record is finished."
Xu Yingfei: "Did Zhou Li take action?"
Captain Liu: "No, we have a new witness."
Xu Yingfei was confused.
But this involved confidential clues in the case, and she knew she could no longer ask.
