Joy came out of the bathroom and without hesitation picked up the meal Zhou Gao had brought her and ate it with great gulps.
No matter how difficult the journey to the dragon's pond and tiger's den set by Zhou Guan was, she had to go through it.
She cannot do it alone if she wants to bring down several plutocratic groups in Europe.
She does need a partner.
And Zhou Gao is in charge of the entire economic lifeline of Europe, which is a good shield.
She has always been suspicious of Zhou Ji's joining the Black Wind Society two years ago.
With the strength of the Zhou family, not everyone can control it.
Even the powerful Black Wind Society.
Therefore, there may have been reasons that she didn't know, or maybe he had the same goal as her, and they were both aiming to bring down the Black Wind Society.
Seeing her eating with gusto, Zhou Qian's lips curled up with a hint of satisfaction.
"How is it? Is the food to your liking?"
Joey was always thinking about the problem and didn't pay attention to what was in his mouth.
Only then did she see that the food in the lunch box was not packed by a restaurant, but seemed to be cooked at home.
She looked at Zhou Gao with some surprise: "Did you do it?"
Zhou Gao nodded lightly: "You are the first to eat the food I cooked by myself. How about it? I am sincere in pursuing you."
Joey smiled slightly: "Why do I remember that Mr. Zhou had a girlfriend before? Do you use these words when you pursue every girl?"
Zhou Jiao smiled: "The investigation was quite careful. Even my ex-girlfriend was found out. Why, is it because of her that you don't want to agree to my pursuit?"
"No, I have always been serious about relationships and will not start them casually."
"Then you haven't forgotten your ex-husband?"
Zhou Jiao looked at Joey with his sharp eyes, feeling pain in his heart.
He couldn't help but clenched his fists with both hands.
Joey smiled freely: "Mr. Zhou, do you think I'm someone who's just looking back? I've never been sloppy in doing things. Once we break up, we'll break up. We won't keep entangled with each other. There will never be anything between Lu Wenzhou and I." They will be reunited.”
He said the cruelest words, but his heart hurt like a needle pricking him.
Her feelings for Lu Wenzhou have always been well hidden.
She would not let herself become a burden to him again, nor would she let Lu Wenzhou dare not act out of consideration for her.
As long as the two of them are independent individuals, they attack Fu Jingran in different directions.
In the end they will surely win, and her son's revenge will be avenged.
Hearing her words, Zhou Jiu's eyes flashed with sadness, but it only disappeared briefly.
Then he said with a smile on his lips: "In that case, I'm relieved. I don't want you and Lu Wenzhou to still be entangled with each other, and I will get involved in it. That kind of third party thing is not something I, Zhou Gao, can do."
Joey chuckled: "I didn't realize that Mr. Zhou is quite principled."
"There are many things that you don't see. I believe you will slowly fall in love with me."
After eating, Joey picked up the information Zhou Gao gave her.
When she saw those things, her eyes suddenly widened.
This information was exactly what she wanted, why Zhou Ji could accurately judge her thoughts.
Could this person really be able to read other people's minds?
Joey calmly read the information and then asked, "Can I use these information?"
Zhou Ji's bright black eyes looked at her for a moment, and he saw desire in her eyes.
His heart also ached, and he said in a deep voice: "It took a long time to collect this information. Do you think I will give it to you easily, Lawyer Qiao?"
"Then you can make whatever conditions you want, except for letting me be your girlfriend."
"But I only want this, and I'm not interested in anything else."
The two people's eyes met in the air, which inexplicably made Joey's heart panic.
Why could she always see Lu Wenzhou's shadow through Zhou Gao's eyes?
Has her depression become more severe recently?
The two of them were obviously far apart, so why did she always feel this way.
Are you really obsessed with Lu Wenzhou to the point where you can't help yourself?
Joey immediately narrowed his eyes and looked at the document in his hand in trance.
Maybe Zhou Gao was right, she did need a boyfriend to cover up her feelings for Lu Wenzhou.
Since Fu Jingran can doubt once, it is possible to doubt a second time.
She could no longer let herself become Lu Wenzhou's weakness.
As a result, his two-year plan of forbearance came to naught.
Joey was silent for a long time, then slowly raised his eyes.
There was no wave on his face, and there was no warmth in his voice.
"I can agree to your request, but I must declare in advance that first, we are just pretending to be a couple and will not have physical contact. Second, in order to cover up others' eyes, you will have to pursue for a while. If you are caught up so quickly, others will will guess our purpose.
If you agree to these two points, our cooperation will continue. If you don't agree, just pretend that I didn't say anything. "
Zhou Gao chuckled lightly: "Lawyer Qiao's abacus is really good. These two points are of no benefit to me. Why should I agree?"
"Because you want to investigate the car accident two years ago, and this case is related to these chaebols, and you need my help, am I right?"
Zhou Jiao smiled and said, "Lawyer Qiao really deserves his reputation. He has a smart mind, clear thinking, and is very accurate in judging people. I agree to your request, Lawyer Qiao. Happy cooperation."
After saying that, he extended his hand to shake Joey's hand.
When the two hands touched together again, that familiar feeling swept through Joey's heart again.
Just when she was wondering, she saw Qiao Si Li's eyes move.
