there"Jane said, "It's nothing, just that Yianqing and I had an argument at the company today, and I'm feeling a bit down now."Zhouli: “Why are you fighting with him”"Energy projects have always been...Yuan Ye did this to see if Jiang Mingzhu was really as innocent as she appeared.

Jan Yichen, having spent too long in a crowd of women, his flirtatious tricks no longer worked on her.

Ginger Mingzhu blushed shyly, stealing glances at Zhou Li who was not far away. He was picking fruit for Zhan Yu Bai, seemingly uninterested in the commotion here.

Damn it!

Jiang Mingzhu pursed her lips, her eyes like those of a deer, captivating Zhan Yanqing. She was shy yet expectant, "Can I..."

When Zhan Yanqing saw this, he was overjoyed. He had originally thought that Jiang Mingzhu wouldn't want to, and he was even prepared to come out and smooth things over for her.

Jian Yanqing sat down, Jiang Mingzhu came to his side, and the people around began to cheer, waiting to see this spectacle.

Zhou Li put down the fruit in her hand and looked towards Jiang Mingzhu. Her fingers were nervously clenching her skirt, as if she was encouraging herself through this action.

After being urged, she finally sat on Jian Yanqing's lap. As soon as her hands wrapped around him, her cheeks flushed red and her eyes welled up with tears.

Because of her nervousness, her body seemed to be trembling, and anyone could tell how inexperienced she was.

Even the group of people who had originally come to watch the excitement were startled.

How could someone so awkward possibly have gotten together with Jian Yanqing

Zhou Li's face was cold as he watched her carefully take a kiss on Jian Yanqing's cheek.

Three minutes passed quickly, and Ginger Mingzhu only kissed Jian Yanqing's face without any further excessive actions.

As Yuan Ye was about to declare Jiang Mingzhu's challenge a failure, he saw that Zhan Yanqing's face had turned pale.

"...Isn't that...possible"

"Less talk, get back to playing." Jan Yanqing's voice was even rougher than before.

Zhan Yu Bai also found it strange, coming out to help smooth things over, "Don't tease Ming Zhu like this, she's almost embarrassed to death."

Yanyixiao raised her eyebrows playfully, "Mingzhu, you are so innocent."

Pure.

When Zhou Li heard these two words, the images of Ginger Mingzhu's previous attempts to seduce him flashed before his eyes. He couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

She's a really good actress.

No one would ever connect that bashful and timid person with the seductive vixen who was clinging to him.

The game continued, and Jiang Mingzhu got lucky and won the biggest point.

And the loser was Zhou Li.

Jane Qiong was delighted, "Honey, you're amazing."

Jiang Mingzhu blushed and laughed, shyly looking at Zhou Li with some anticipation in her eyes, "Mr. Zhou wouldn't be angry with me, would he"

In front of everyone, Ginger Mingzhu didn't call him brother.

Zhou Li was indifferent, not even looking at her. "Truth or dare."

Ginger Mingzhu asked cautiously, "Can you forgive me for what happened in Mr. Zhan's office that day"

This question sounded a bit ambiguous. Xu Sidian and Yuan Ye stopped their movements and looked at Zhou Li.

However, Zhouli is still as immovable as a thousand-year-old bolt from the blue. "Okay."

Ginger's dim pupils suddenly brightened, like a child who had been given candy, "Thank you!"

She even bowed to Zhou Li.

Let's not talk about other people, even Jane Qiong doesn't understand, "What's wrong with you and my brother-in-law"

"That day, General Zhang asked me to pour coffee for Mr. Zhou, but I accidentally spilled it, which made him angry," Jiang Mingzhu said, still a little scared. "Luckily, General Zhang arrived in time and saved me."

Zhou Li coldly retracted his gaze, a hint of disgust appearing on his expression, which happened to be caught by Zhan Yu Bai.

After leaving the venue in the evening and returning to the suite, Zhou Li went to take a shower first.

When he came out in his bathrobe, Chen Yu Bai seemed casually chatted with him, "It seems like you got angry that day and scared Mingzhu quite badly."

Before Zhou Li went to the sofa, she picked up her phone and said, "Really"

Jane said: "She looks really scared when she talks to you."

Zhou Li remained noncommittal. Jan, in a tentative tone, probed him, "You seem to dislike her"

“No.”

"Next time, be gentler with her, she's still my assistant. What if I scare her away"

Zhou Li narrowed his eyes: "My fiancée, is it appropriate for me to be nice to other women"

This answer struck a chord with Zhan Yubai. The suspicion in her eyes was diluted, replaced by a smile.

----

A little past one in the morning, Zhou Li hung up the phone and walked out of the guest room department, wandering aimlessly.

The onsen inn was unusually quiet at night. After a few minutes, he heard rustling sounds.

Turning back, I saw a woman in a red silk slip dress in the corner not far away. She had a cigarette between her fingers, bringing it to her lips.

She smoked with practiced ease, her red lips slowly expelling smoke rings. When she tilted her head back, her fair neck was exposed.

Ginger Mingzhu.

She seemed to sense someone watching her, turned her head, and upon seeing him, extinguished her cigarette and started walking toward the guest rooms.

Zhou Li strode forward, blocking her path. His icy gaze fell on the cigarette case in her hand, "Why aren't you continuing"g Mingzhu: "Because I'm sick."Zhouli: …”Although he didn't speak, Jiang Mingzhu could tell from his expression that he thought she was lying.Jiang Mingzhu used a fork to pick up a big steamed bun and...
