Rather than scolding, Jiang Mingzhu was more concerned about: "Have you talked to Zhizhi?"
Zheng Linxu: "Yes, I told you last night."
Jiang Mingzhu: "...last night?"
How many things had she missed while giving birth?
Before Zheng Linxu had time to answer this question, Zhou Li had already returned.
Zhou Li was holding the strawberries and cherries that Jiang Mingzhu had asked to eat. He nodded to say hello after seeing Zheng Linxu.
Then his eyes were fixed on Jiang Mingzhu: "I've bought it, do you want to eat it now?"
Jiang Mingzhu: "Yeah."
Zhou Li: "Then I'll go wash it."
He turned and went to the bathroom to wash the fruit.
Zheng Linxu couldn't help laughing when he saw Zhou Li's obedience to Jiang Mingzhu.
Now that Zhou Li has been trained better and better, he can do this kind of thing naturally and smoothly.
After Jiang Mingzhu finished talking to Zhou Li, she continued to talk to Zheng Lin about the previous topic: "You haven't told me what happened last night. Did you go to Zhizhi's place?"
Zheng Linxu: "To be precise, we met at the airport yesterday."
Zheng Linxu didn't go into detail, but Jiang Mingzhu raised her eyebrows after listening to his words: "Did we meet by chance, or did you book the ticket after checking her flight?"
Zheng Linxu didn't answer.
But Jiang Mingzhu has already guessed the answer.
The two of them talked for a few more words, and Zhou Li just finished washing the fruits and came out. Zheng Linxu left quickly without disturbing the family of three.
After Zheng Linxu left, Jiang Mingzhu got out of bed and sat on the sofa with Zhou Li to chat.
Zhou Li directly put the washed and plated fruits on his lap and fed Jiang Mingzhu beside him naturally.
Jiang Mingzhu sat cross-legged and enjoyed his service, and chatted with him by the way: "Did you hear what Boss Zheng and I were talking about just now?"
Zhou Li: "Yeah."
Jiang Mingzhu: "I thought he wouldn't regret it. He did it so brilliantly."
Zhou Li: "You are in confinement, so don't worry about these things."
Jiang Mingzhu: "That won't work. I have to tell Zhizhi. I can't let her let go easily."

After returning from southern Sichuan, Fu Xiaozhi rested for two days before going back to work at the foundation.
The scale of the Sesame Foundation is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more official cooperations. When Fu Xiaozhi is busy, she travels everywhere on weekends.
Now that Jiang Mingzhu is in confinement, Fu Xiaozhi is even busier.
There is a volunteer activity this weekend. It was originally scheduled to go with Xiao Hu from the planning department, but something happened at Xiao Hu's family, and Fu Xiaozhi was immediately blinded.
When she got off work on Friday, Fu Xiaozhi was worried about this matter.
The news about Jin Yangshen came at this time.
After they separated, Fu Xiaozhi and Jin Yangshen did not deliberately cut off contact. When something happened, they would say a few words on WeChat.
Jin Yangshen usually works in Beicheng, and since they have the same hobbies, they have never had any unpleasantness, so they will not be separated from each other forever.
Jin Yangshen: [The pedal you wanted to buy last time has arrived. Will you come and get it or should I give it to you? 】
This pedal was reserved when they were still together. The store had no stock at that time. They bought it after queuing up to register their information. Fu Xiaozhi has liked that pedal for a long time.
Fu Xiaozhi: [Where are you? I'll go get it. 】
Jin Yangshen sent a location and it was the restaurant next to the outdoor sports store.
Jin Yangshen: [Just in time to have a meal together. 】
Fu Xiaozhi replied with an "OK" expression, then put down her phone and started driving.
Tired after a busy day, Fu Xiaozhi rubbed her shoulders and walked to the parking lot, not noticing the person who had been following her not far away.
The restaurant where Jin Yangshen was was not too far away, Fu Xiaozhi drove there in a quarter of an hour.
As soon as she parked the car, Jin Yangshen came over with the pedal, "It's a bit in the way, let's put it in your trunk first."
Fu Xiaozhi immediately opened the trunk and put the pedal in together with Jin Yangshen.
After closing the trunk, Jin Yangshen's eyes fell on Fu Xiaozhi's face and asked casually: "Why do you look so bad? Didn't you sleep well?"
Fu Xiaozhi: "Don't mention it, I've been so busy lately, working overtime every day."
The two entered the restaurant while chatting.
While ordering, Fu Xiaozhi was still worrying about the arrangements for tomorrow's volunteer activities.
Jin Yangshen: "How many things are there at the Foundation?"
Fu Xiaozhi: "Yes, we have negotiated some new cooperation with the Education Bureau and the municipal government. Zhuzhu has just given birth to a baby, and we don't have enough manpower. I can't find any young men to follow me during tomorrow's volunteer activity. Together."
Fu Xiaozhi had never thought about recruiting people before. The foundation's operating model is different from that of ordinary companies. It cannot expand recruitment like a company. After all, the money comes from donors.
Jin Yangshen: "Wouldn't there be a strong man in front of you at any event tomorrow?"
Fu Xiaozhi's eyes lit up: "Yes, why did I forget you? Are you free tomorrow?"
Jin Yangshen: "Yes."
Jin Yangshen had participated in some activities with Fu Xiaozhi before. He also liked children and was happy to participate.
So the matter was settled: "I'll ride there tomorrow."
Fu Xiaozhi: "You really helped me solve a big problem. I'll treat you to this meal today!"
Jin Yangshen: "Okay."
——
Fu Xiaozhi and Jin Yangshen had a very happy meal.
She felt that it was more comfortable for her and Jin Yangshen to get along as good friends and playmates.
Jin Yangshen felt the same way when he looked at Fu Xiaozhi laughing heartily in front of him.
When they got along as an unmarried couple and as a couple before, although Fu Xiaozhi was quite happy, she was not as relaxed as she is now.
At that time, he could clearly sense that she had some psychological burden, probably hinting that he "had to give a response." Although there was a response for everything, he knew very well that it was a thread that the two of them carefully maintained, and it was extremely fragile. .
Jin Yangshen has liked Fu Xiaozhi for so many years, so it is naturally impossible for him to get over it soon after the breakup, but he has accepted this reality.
It is better to be friends casually than to be lovers cautiously.
After dinner, Fu Xiaozhi and Jin Yangshen went to the outdoor sports goods store nearby.
She bought some other equipment and put them in the trunk, then said goodbye to Jin Yangshen and went home.
It was already half past nine when the car parked under the apartment building.
Fu Xiaozhi got out of the car and went to the trunk to inventory things.
As soon as she took out a bag of things, she turned around and saw Zheng Linxu standing behind her.
Fu Xiaozhi's eyes changed.
In an instant, Zheng Linxu had walked up and stopped beside her, and naturally stretched out his hand to her, "Give it to me."
Fu Xiaozhi didn't move, so Zheng Linxu took action directly.
When Fu Xiaozhi reacted, the bag in her hand had already been taken away by Zheng Linxu.
Zheng Linxu glanced at it and said, "Did Jin Yangshen give it to you?"
Fu Xiaozhi frowned and looked at him displeased: "Are you following me?"
Zheng Linxu didn't answer the question and stepped forward to sort out other things for her: "A friend's brand has just developed a new car. You should like it."
As he spoke, he had already picked up the bags behind him, "It's a bit heavy, let me help you carry it up."
