Chapter 2: Paranoia

rgy.Zheng Linxu is really efficient. The nutritionist in charge of her three meals has already arrived, and all of Jiang Mingzhu's meals are prepared by the nutritionist.It tastes good, but it's too b...Zhou Li's cold gaze swept over the traces on her body, his face filled with disdain. His narrow eyes held a storm brewing within them, "It seems you have chosen to go to jail."

Jiang Mingzhu's tears streamed down her face, like pear blossoms in the rain, she accused him with a wronged expression, "Why are you so cruel to me Is it wrong to like you"

Ginger Mingzhu lowered her head and wept, heartbroken to the core. Her shattered appearance was probably irresistible to any man.

Ginger Mingzhu caught a glimpse of Zhou Li picking up his phone and fiddling with it. She waited for his reply.

A few seconds later, a sound suddenly came from his phone.

Jiang Mingzhu listened for less than half a minute, immediately raised her head, tears streaming down her face, staring at him in astonishment.

"

It's done, he fell asleep. The medicine worked really well.

"

"I'm fine, he deserves to be treated that way. I have every right to cling to him."

"Thanks for your help today, I'll talk to him tomorrow and see what happens. He can be tough to deal with."

This is what Zhou Li said on the phone after she fell asleep last night.

Ginger Mingzhu didn't know where Zhou Li got this recording from. He clearly wasn't sober last night.

When in doubt, the man before me picked up a recording pen. "I have the habit of carrying a recording pen with me all the time,"

Jiang Mingzhu: "..."

Jiang Mingzhu was dumbfounded. She hadn't expected to be outmaneuvered by Zhou Li.

Is he paranoid He actually carries a recording pen with him, she didn't even notice last night!

"Stop acting." Zhou Li pushed her away from him, put on his coat, and walked away without looking back.

Ginger Mingzhu looked at the 100,000 yuan cash he tossed on the bedside table and irritably grabbed her hair, "Damn it."

Ginger Mingzhu had just returned to her apartment when Fang Qinyang surrounded her. Seeing her limp, Fang Qinyang worried, "Are you alright"

"It hurts so much." Jiang Mingzhu sat down. "He's a beast in human clothing, worse than an animal."

Fang Qin Yang: "Do you want to see a doctor"

Ginger Mingzhu: “It’s fine, I’ll just apply some medicine.”

Fang Qin Yang: "What does Zhou Li say"

Ginger Mingzhu told Fang Qinyang about the Zhou Li recording, and Fang Qinyang was also surprised, "You mean, he carries a recorder with him"

"Am I being paranoid" Jiang Mingzhu gritted her teeth, "My plans are all ruined."

Fang QinYang thought deeply and fearfully, "Perhaps, you could change your target"

When Jiang Mingzhu set her sights on Zhou Li, Fang Qinian had warned him, saying that Zhou Li was a cunning and difficult person to deal with.

Now Fang QinYang is even more certain of this idea, Zhou Li could get mad any day and throw Jiang MingZhu into the police station at any time.

"No change." Jiang Mingzhu narrowed her pretty eyes. "When is Zhou Li coming back to the country"

"Next month on the third," Fang QinYang asked, "what do you want to do"

Jiang Mingzhu took out a document from her phone and showed it to Fang Qinyang.

Fang QinYang saw the name and photo, frowning. "You're going to go find him"

Half a month later, Beicheng.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Zhan Yanqing sent Jiang Mingzhu to her apartment building and got out of the car with her.

Then I'll go back first, see you next time. Jiang Mingzhu smiled at Zhan Yanqing, her eyes seemed to have hooks in them.

Zhan Yanqing was itching with anticipation, he grabbed her arm and said, "Won't you invite me up for a sit"

Ginger Mingzhu looked at him innocently, "It's too late, it's inconvenient, another time."

Ginger Mingzhu returned to China more than a week ago, and she successfully hooked up with Jian Yanqing, the younger brother of Zhou Li's fiancée, that is, her future brother-in-law.

Men are just cheap, they don't like being too proactive. The ones they can't have are the most desirable.

"My brother-in-law is coming back tomorrow at the Lijing Hotel. Will you come with me"

Fang Qin Yang said that Zhan Yan Qing's woman could not be pulled away even with a truck, and this was the first time he had brought a woman to such a formal occasion.

It seems like we're in a bit of trouble...

But Jiang Mingzhu had achieved her goal and feigned reluctance, "Wouldn't this be a bit inappropriate"

Jane Chiang: "Don't feel pressured, I'll just introduce you around, make sure to dress nicely."

Jiang Mingzhu smiled, her eyes curving up, and the eyeshadow shimmered under the streetlights. "Good, I'll give you a surprise tomorrow."

——

The next afternoon, security guards and bodyguards were lined up in front of the Li Jing Hotel.

A woman stepped out of a light-colored luxury car.

The moment he got off the vehicle, even the bodyguard who led the way was left speechless.

Those beautiful eyes were clear and innocent, with long, thick eyelashes fluttering lightly, hinting at a bashful desire to speak but hold back. Rosy blush and nude lipstick, paired with a white sundress, made her look both pure and alluring.

Jiang Mingzhu tossed her hair, a slight lift of her lips instantly drawing the attention of everyone present.

Those who appear here are either rich or noble. Ginger Mingzhu is a fresh face, and those eager young masters were eager to try their luck, but when they saw the usual cold and dismissive Jian Yanqing approach, they became unusually attentive. "Baby, you're so beautiful today,"

The praised Ginger Mingzhu's attention was not on Zhan Yanqing, but her gaze swept across the banquet hall.

Is it here yet

Jian Yanqing's hand landed on Jiang Mingzhu's waist, the soft touch of her palm making his throat dry. What a top-notch enchantress.

"Do you know how many men are looking at you I really regret bringing you here, you owe me a good night tonight."

Jian Yanqing whispered, his hands restless as he kneaded her waist, pulling her closer to him.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the banquet hall. Someone exclaimed, "Zhou Li has arrived."nday, Ginger Mingzhu sent her car to the 4S shop for maintenance.It's a small world. As soon as I finished sending off the car, I ran into Zhou Li and Zhan Yu Bai. A salesperson was introducing car mo...
