Ji Jingxi was such a smart person. When Jiang Mingzhu asked this question, he guessed that she probably knew that Zheng Linxu was in Beicheng.
But she still desperately tried to make amends for Zheng Linxu: "He? Who?"
Jiang Mingzhu was very direct: "I know he is in Beicheng."
Ji Jingxi: "..."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Is he in there? How is his injury?"
Ji Jingxi was even more incredible this time. Did he even know about Zheng Linxu's injury?
The desperate struggle was useless, Ji Jingxi had no choice but to make way for Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li to let them in: "Let's talk after we go in."
Jiang Mingzhu said "hmm", took Zhou Li's hand out of habit, and followed Ji Jingxi to the yard with him.
Ji Jingxi walked in front and entered the living room first.
Zheng Linxu was sitting in the living room. When she heard Ji Jingxi's return, she habitually asked: "Didn't you go out to buy——"
Just halfway through asking the question, Zheng Linxu saw Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li walking in behind Ji Jingxi.
A moment of shock flashed through his usually calm and peaceful eyes, but he quickly calmed down: "Zhuzhu, Zhou Li, why are you here."
Jiang Mingzhu let go of Zhou Li's hand and walked to Zheng Linxu, grabbed his arm and checked up and down, "Let me see where you are injured."
"It's much better now, it's not a serious injury." Zheng Linxu held Jiang Mingzhu's hand, "You have a big belly, don't get excited."
That's what she said, but how could Jiang Mingzhu not be excited? She was holding back a lot of questions and wanted to ask Zheng Lin for confirmation.
Seeing this situation, Ji Jingxi knew that they must have something to talk about, so he said tactfully: "Then you guys talk first, and I'll go out to buy something."
Zheng Lin said: "Be careful on the road."
When he said this, he exchanged glances with Ji Jingxi, and they understood each other tacitly.
After Ji Jingxi left, Zheng Linxu looked at Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li who were sitting opposite, and asked casually: "Why are you here suddenly?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "If I didn't come here, how would I know that Boss Zheng was hiding in Beicheng years ago?"
She always speaks directly. She came here to "interrogate" Zheng Linxu, and she doesn't mince words.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Zheng Linxu's eyelids jumped.
There are very few people who know that he is in Beicheng, and there is only one person who may have revealed this news to Jiang Mingzhu——
But Fu Xiaozhi had promised that he would not tell Jiang Mingzhu, and Zheng Linxu didn't think she would go back on her word.
He must have let it slip accidentally.
Zheng Linxu didn't say anything, so Jiang Mingzhu continued: "Zhizhi and Jin Yangshen are scheduled to get engaged in April. Have you heard the news?"
Zheng Lin said: "It's pretty good."
Jiang Mingzhu: "Are you serious?"
Zheng Linxu: "The two of them are very suitable."
Jiang Mingzhu was inexplicably angry when she heard this. Zhou Li felt her anger and pressed her. He glanced down at her belly to tell her to calm down.
Jiang Mingzhu calmed down a little after thinking about the child.
Zhou Li looked at Zheng Linxu, and his words were more direct than Jiang Mingzhu's: "You must separate from Liangliang, not just because of Wenqi."
Zheng Linxu stared at Zhou Li without saying anything.
Zhou Li: "Wen Qi is an obvious excuse and cover. It may only account for 20%. You should not want others to know the other 80%."
His analysis was clear and logical, and his tone was sure of victory.
Zheng Linxu and Zhou Li looked at each other, their eyelids beating violently a few times, and an ominous premonition surged in their hearts.
Zheng Linxu's eyes slowly swept across the faces of Zhou Li and Jiang Mingzhu, "If you have anything else to say, continue."
Jiang Mingzhu: "You haven't gotten married these years because one of your girlfriends was kidnapped and almost died."
After Jiang Mingzhu said this, a storm brewed in Zheng Linxu's pupils, the blood vessels on his forehead bulged, and the hand that was originally resting on his thigh suddenly closed into a fist.
It was the first time in so many years that Jiang Mingzhu saw Zheng Linxu have such a violent emotional reaction.
It was enough to prove how much impact that incident had on him.
So much so that even after so many years, he would still be so groggy when he mentioned it.
Zheng Linxu was silent for almost half a minute before speaking in a hoarse voice: "Who told you?"
Very few people knew about these things. Only his close associates and family members knew about it. Zheng Pianqing had no choice but to tell them because they couldn't hide it.
Jiang Mingzhu answered the question incorrectly: "There are some things that you can't hide for the rest of your life if you want to. Others will know sooner or later."
Zheng Linxu rubbed her temples.
Jiang Mingzhu: "So you approached Ji Jingxi and worked with her to push Zhizhi away because you were afraid that what happened back then would happen again."
Zheng Linxu: "No, it's just because she and I——"
"Don't say that you two are not suitable, and don't say that you have no feelings for her." Jiang Mingzhu seemed to have guessed what Zheng Linxu was going to say, and interrupted him directly: "Do you feel that you know in your heart that there are many women looking for you? Why did you choose her even though you knew it was inappropriate? If you lose control like this and say you don’t feel anything, that would be too false.”
Jiang Mingzhu's mouth has always been powerful, and she sees other people's affairs so thoroughly. Even Zheng Linxu can be left speechless by her every word.
Zheng Linxu is no longer curious about who told Jiang Mingzhu these things.
The point was that she already knew it, and he couldn't escape it, he had to face it.
After a long silence, Zheng Linxu spoke: "The situation of the Zheng family is much more complicated than you think."
"When Ye Yu's parents passed away, I encountered a lot of troubles, so I offended a lot of people, and I don't know how many eyes were staring at me in the dark." Having said this, Zheng Linxu did not continue.
Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li are both smart, and there are some things that he doesn't need to explain clearly.
Zhou Li: "You feel that your ability is not enough to protect her."
His voice was calm and a little cold, "You don't even have this kind of confidence."
After marrying Jiang Mingzhu, Zhou Li spoke with Zheng Linxu in a respectful manner, which was rare for them to be so cold.
This is an evaluation made entirely from a man's perspective, "It's just an excuse, you just don't want to be responsible."
Zheng Linxu did not refute.
Jiang Mingzhu: "You have been in Beicheng for so long, do you have something to do?"
Jiang Mingzhu's sense of smell has always been sharp: "You want to lure the snake out of its hole?"
Zheng Linxu answered the question inappropriately: "Don't come to me during this period. It's not safe for you with a big belly."
He looked at Zhou Li and said, "Take good care of her and try not to let her go out alone."
Zhou Li is now very attached to Jiang Mingzhu. After Zheng Linxu's reminder, he became more serious: "Okay."
Jiang Mingzhu completely ignored the question and told Zheng Lin, "Zhizhi still likes you."
After Zheng Linxu heard this sentence, his hand paused slightly.
Jiang Mingzhu: "If you also like her, don't think that you are making the choice for her. Just like I did before, you left without telling him. In the end, you still can't let go and want to come back."
"Do you still remember how you persuaded me back then?" Jiang Mingzhu looked into Zheng Linxu's eyes: "When you get rid of these people and see her marry Jin Yangshen, are you sure you won't regret it?"
