Jiang Jin's voice had almost no fluctuation, and his eyes were calm. Only the bulging veins on his forehead gave him away.
Xu Yingfei knew that he was angry.
She raised her hand to touch his forehead, "I'm sorry, I..."
Jiang Jin directly covered her mouth, not giving her any chance to explain.
Xu Yingfei was speechless and her breathing was blocked. The next moment, her body suddenly vacated and she was carried out of the box by Jiang Jin.
Later, the effect of the medicine on her body became more and more obvious, and she couldn't help but press closer to him as she went downstairs.
Jiang Jin tensed his body and quickened his pace, took her to the front of the car and threw her into the back seat.
When he was about to close the door, Xu Yingfei came up and hugged his thigh, pressing her face against his abdomen: "Help me solve it, or take me to the hospital."
——
When Xu Yingfei woke up again, the first thing she felt was the soreness all over her body.
The sunlight in the room was a bit dazzling, so she rubbed her eyes a few times before starting to observe.
Not her apartment, nor the Xu family.
Xu Yingfei sat up and began to recall what happened last night.
Her memory only stayed when she and Jiang Jin were in the car, and what happened afterwards seemed like fragments.
But looking at the marks on his body, he knew he must have been crazy last night.
But...where is Jiang Jin now? Where did he go during the time he disappeared?
She hadn't had time to ask these questions yet.
Xu Yingfei guessed that she should be at Jiang Jin's residence now.
It's just that the layout and display of this bedroom... it really doesn't look like something Jiang Jin can afford.
Xu Yingfei endured the discomfort and walked out of the room, only to realize that she was on the second floor. The corridor was very long, and there were stairs leading upstairs at the end.
More than just a two-story villa.
How could Jiang Jin have such a house?
Xu Yingfei didn't go to the third floor. She turned back downstairs and walked barefoot to the first floor.
When I went downstairs, I happened to see the huge living room, which was decorated in pure American style. The glasses on the wine cabinet were worth five figures.
Xu Yingfei frowned, and a bad premonition suddenly surged in her heart.
There was no one in the living room, and I didn't know where Jiang Jin had gone.
Xu Yingfei walked around downstairs based on her feelings, and unknowingly reached the dining room and kitchen.
When she was about to turn around and leave, she suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from inside.
Xu Yingfei's steps immediately stopped.
It's Jiang Jin calling.
"...What? Jiang Mingzhu?"
"Are you sure it's Jiang Mingzhu?"
"Don't act until you're sure. I'll take the time to go to Beicheng again recently."
"Even if it is, she won't accept it easily."
"As long as you know."
Xu Yingfei didn't understand anything except Jiang Mingzhu's name.
When she was wondering why Jiang Jin was talking about Jiang Mingzhu, she suddenly heard him say again: "Remember what you promised me, I will definitely protect the Xu family."
Hearing this sentence, Xu Yingfei completely froze in place, her right eyelid beating violently.
Jiang Jin has been with her for almost four years, and she has never heard Jiang Jin speak in such a tone.
When Xu Yingfei reacted again, Jiang Jin had already stopped in front of her.
He was wearing a dark gray suit and still had his cell phone in his hand. After seeing her, his eyes swept over her bare feet.
"There are slippers in the shoe cabinet in the living room, go put them on."
Xu Yingfei: "Who are you?"
She stared at his face intently, not missing any of his expressions.
Jiang Jin: "Are you confused by your sleep?"
Xu Yingfei: "I asked you who you are, Jiang Jin. Don't change the subject."
Jiang Jin: "How much did you hear just now?"
Xu Yingfei: "Why can you keep the Xu family? What is your identity? Where have you been during this time? And Jiang Mingzhu——"
"Too many questions." Jiang Jin turned around his phone, "Come over and change your shoes, let's talk while having breakfast."
——
Christmas is coming soon.
The shopping malls and streets of Beicheng already have a strong festive atmosphere.
Christmas this year happened to fall on the weekend, and Jiang Mingzhu started preparing early to celebrate Christmas with Zhou Li.
Jiang Mingzhu bought balloons and Christmas trees online, and even bought couple's pajamas with Christmas elements.
Yushuiwan's living room has been occupied by the things Jiang Mingzhu bought.
The originally empty living room now has a huge Christmas tree covered with gift bags, red and green balloons surround the TV wall, and even Santa Claus hats hang on the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Not only that, the sofa is also filled with Christmas limited editions of various Disney dolls.
Zhou Li needs to do some mental construction several times every day when he comes in.
But Jiang Mingzhu was very happy and enjoying it.
Christmas Eve was Friday. Jiang Mingzhu followed Zhou Li after getting off work. The two of them went to the supermarket on the way home.
We had already agreed before that we would cook at home on Christmas Eve.
There are many Christmas-themed desserts on sale in the baking section of the supermarket, and each one is as beautiful as the last.
Jiang Mingzhu already has a huge craving for sweets, and she couldn't resist seeing the beautiful little cake.
When she reached the cold chain window, Jiang Mingzhu's pace slowed down unconsciously.
Although she didn't speak, her actions were the best proof.
Zhou Li saw her staring at the window in ecstasy and reluctantly said, "You can choose one today."
Jiang Mingzhu's eyes lit up: "Really?"
During the time they lived together, Zhou Li was very strict with her eating habits.
The two of them were almost never separated for 24 hours, and it became an impossible task for Jiang Mingzhu to eat cakes behind Zhou Li's back.
I have been controlled by him for a long time, but today I am not used to him being so happy.
Zhou Li: "Well, we can make an exception during the holidays."
Jiang Mingzhu smiled and went to get a piece of cheesecake, but her attention was quickly attracted by the gorgeously decorated egg tart next to it.
Jiang Mingzhu hesitated for a long time and couldn't choose.
So she turned back and asked Zhou Li: "Can I choose two options?"
Zhou Li: "No."
Jiang Mingzhu: "I haven't had anything sweet for a long time."
Zhou Li: "You just had a thousand-layer cake at the banquet half a month ago."
Jiang Mingzhu's eyes widened, "Are you a calculating person?"
She couldn't even remember such a small thing, but he could still tell the time.
How outrageous!
Zhou Li: "I suggest you choose egg tarts, because you always eat cakes."
In the end, Jiang Mingzhu couldn't persuade Zhou Li to let go, so she reluctantly put down the cake and chose the box of egg tarts.
Fortunately, there were eighteen egg tarts in a box, and she secretly vowed to eat them all tonight.
But Zhou Li seemed to be able to read minds. Just as Jiang Mingzhu finished thinking, she heard Zhou Li say: "We can eat up to three tonight."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Ah, you are so annoying! Why do you like to control me more than Boss Zheng!"
She was so angry that she punched Zhou Li twice on the shoulder.
Zhou Li didn't avoid it either: "I'm thinking about your health."
Jiang Mingzhu whispered: "You were not like this before you were with me."
Is this a man? He even cares about what she eats.
Although Jiang Mingzhu was very quiet, Zhou Li heard her.
His expression darkened: "Why, you regret it."
Jiang Mingzhu smelled the danger and immediately went to wrap his arm: "No, the cake is not as important as my brother~"
