Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li spent nearly forty minutes trying on clothes.
When they came out, the clerk at the counter looked at them with extremely ambiguous eyes.
Jiang Mingzhu was thick-skinned and didn't care. Zhou Li, on the other hand, had a straight face as always, but a blush could be seen on the tips of his ears.
After coming out of the counter, Jiang Mingzhu stood up on tiptoes and touched Zhou Li's ears.
She smiled sweetly: "Brother is so cute."
——
The consequences of teasing Zhou Li like that in the locker room are serious.
Jiang Mingzhu didn't wake up until 10:30 the next morning. When she opened her eyes, she still had pain in her back and legs.
She reluctantly got up and took a shower. When she looked in the mirror, she found that Zhou Li still had a conscience and was very careful when biting her.
At least she could wear that dress safely today.
When Jiang Mingzhu came out of the shower, Zhou Li happened to come back to the bedroom.
"Breakfast is ready." Zhou Li said, "Blow your hair and go eat."
Jiang Mingzhu sat down on the sofa, "Blow me, I have no energy left."
This is not the first time Zhou Li has done this kind of thing. Jiang Mingzhu has often made such requests these days, and he has gradually become accustomed to it.
Zhou Li took out the hair dryer skillfully, walked to the sofa and started blowing Jiang Mingzhu's hair.
Jiang Mingzhu leaned on the sofa and closed her eyes to enjoy this supreme treatment, and the curvature of the corners of her mouth became wider and wider.
Jiang Mingzhu's hair is very soft and can be dried quickly.
Zhou Li turned off the hair dryer and put it aside, "Okay, let's go down and eat."
Jiang Mingzhu lazily opened her eyes and opened her arms towards Zhou Li.
Zhou Li immediately understood what she meant, and he bent down to pick her up from the sofa.
As soon as he picked him up, Jiang Mingzhu kissed him on the ear: "Brother learns so quickly, I don't need to say anything now."
Zhou Li: "I just know how to act like a spoiled child."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Then will you always let me act like a baby?"
Zhou Li: "Yeah."
Jiang Mingzhu: "I see you have made progress."
Zhou Li: "What?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Under my earnest guidance, my boyfriend finally seems to be able to say something nice."
Zhou Li: "..."
Jiang Mingzhu was carried to the restaurant downstairs for breakfast by Zhou Li.
Zhou Li got up early in the morning and had already had a meal. One portion on the table was specially prepared for Jiang Mingzhu.
But Zhou Li did not leave after putting him down. He poured a cup of coffee and sat across from her to eat with her.
While eating, Zhou Li kept playing with his mobile phone, as if he was dealing with something.
Jiang Mingzhu ate the bread and looked at his focused expression, looking forward to tonight's banquet more and more.
That day she vaguely guessed what would happen tonight.
——
The banquet started at six o'clock in the evening, and Ziyun Villa was not in the city, so Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li set off at four o'clock.
Jiang Mingzhu put on the black skirt from yesterday, paired with a light-colored windbreaker.
Her makeup today was more sophisticated, a bit more sharp and aggressive than usual, but she still matched Zhou Li very well when she stood next to him.
Near six o'clock, Zhou Li parked the car in the parking lot of Ziyun Villa.
As soon as the two got off the car, they met many acquaintances in the parking lot.
Among them were Yuan Ye and Yu Ning, who came with Yuan Ye's parents.
Jiang Mingzhu was not surprised that Yuanye's parents would come, but she didn't expect that Yuanye would actually bring Yu Ning here.
It seems that I am really serious this time.
Yuan Ye and Zhou Li exchanged glances, hugged Yu Ning next to him and began to introduce Jiang Mingzhu.
Yuanye: "Zhuzhu, my girlfriend."
After he finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows at Yu Ning, gesturing for her to speak.
Yu Ning immediately reached out to Jiang Mingzhu: "Hello, I am Yu Ning."
Jiang Mingzhu smiled and went to shake hands with her, "I know, I've watched your TV series, it's super good. You are even more beautiful in person than on TV."
Yu Ning was embarrassed by the compliment and stuck out her tongue, "Thank you, you are beautiful too."
Yu Ning's character is quite likable, without any airs of a star.
Jiang Mingzhu looked towards Yuanye and communicated with him with her eyes: You have really good vision this time.
Yuanye understood what Jiang Mingzhu meant and laughed twice, "Let's go, let's go in."
This banquet was hosted by the Zhou family. As a member of the Zhou family, Zhou Li was naturally the focus of the crowd.
Since Zhou Li and Xu Yingfei broke up peacefully, no new scandals have been reported. Many people want to take this opportunity to introduce their juniors to Zhou Li.
But who knew that after coming here with such a mood, he saw Zhou Li entering the banquet hall with a tall woman.
The woman held his arm. The two had similar auras and seemed to be a perfect match.
When Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li walked in the crowd, they had a high rate of turning around, and it was even more so on an occasion like today.
As soon as the two appeared, they immediately became the focus of the audience.
Naturally, there is a voice of discussion.
There were only those people in the circle, and someone quickly recognized Jiang Mingzhu.
"Isn't that the original daughter-in-law?"
"I heard that the two of them didn't get the certificate and they broke up a long time ago?"
"Then how did you get together with Zhou Li? You can't be a ploy, right?"
"It's not normal for young people to change their boyfriends and girlfriends. If they really try to force a corner, can the original family still come?"
Zhou Li vaguely heard these words.
Because of the public relationship between Yuanye and Yu Ning, Jiang Mingzhu's evaluation is indeed much friendlier than expected.
Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li quickly walked in front of Jin Rou and Zhou Zhanghui.
Jin Rou was chatting with Ming Yue, but when they saw Jiang Mingzhu coming over, they both immediately turned their attention to Jiang Mingzhu.
Jin Rou took Jiang Mingzhu's arm in front of everyone and said, "Mingzhu, here you go, you are so beautiful today."
There were many guests standing beside Jin Rou. Seeing how enthusiastic she was towards Jiang Mingzhu, she knew Jiang Mingzhu's status.
Jiang Mingzhu laughed at the praise: "Thank you, aunt."
Jin Rou glanced at Zhou Li and said, "This piece of wood is cheap, Old Four."
——
At six o'clock sharp, the guests were basically all here.
The banquet officially started.
According to the rules, the organizer must first give a speech on stage.
Jin Rou and Zhou Zhanghui walked up together.
Jin Rou: "The purpose of holding this event today is to share good news with everyone."
As soon as she opened her mouth, the audience fell silent, waiting for her to announce the good news.
Jiang Mingzhu was sitting in the front row. After hearing Jin Rou's words, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
She has never been so eager to be "acknowledged" and "public" as now.
At this time, Jin Rou also looked at Jiang Mingzhu. She smiled softly but her voice was very firm.
"I believe you have just seen that Zhou Li has a girlfriend, and she is also the daughter-in-law chosen by my husband and me."
As soon as Jin Rou finished speaking, everyone looked at Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li.
Although Jiang Mingzhu was thick-skinned, she was also a little embarrassed.
When she was at a loss, Zhou Li suddenly put his arm around her shoulders, and intertwined his fingers with hers with his other hand.
"I'm here." He simply said two words, but the anxiety in Jiang Mingzhu's heart was suddenly soothed.
