Chapter 36: Heavy Rain

"Zhou Shi, you wait for me, I'll go back to Area A right now."

Hearing Meng Chengmei's news, Jiang Bai spoke a little anxiously.

She originally thought that she would go to Jiang Zhoushi tomorrow to find news of her mother, but she didn't expect to bump into her by chance today.

If you miss today, you don't know when you'll have to wait until you know the truth of the matter.

Jiang Bai hurriedly said a few words to Jiang Zhoushi, and then hung up the phone.

"You're going to go to him?"

Lu Chongshan's already bad face now became even darker.

Jiang Bai nodded, his eyes flashing eagerly.

"Lu Chongshan, I really have something very important to do, do you believe me well, I will never have anything with other men in the name of your wife."

Because this matter was different from the past, Jiang Bai was afraid that Lu Chongshan would stop her, so he immediately made a guarantee.

Looking at the serious appearance of the woman in front of him, the corners of Lu Chongshan's mouth were slightly hooked.

"I trust you, come back early."

The man's voice was tinged with concern, and for a moment Jiang Bai was a little suspicious of how the person in front of him could suddenly change so quickly.

"Hmm."

She nodded, told the driver the address she wanted to get off, and hurriedly got out of the car when she got to the place.

Lu Chongshan looked at the thin figure that was gradually disappearing, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

"You let people follow her, don't let her have an accident."

The assistant sitting next to the driver nodded, and then got out of the car.

Lu Chongshan sat quietly in the car, lit a cigar, and his deep and handsome facial features became more and more attractive to a mature man.

Since Jiang Bai was reluctant to say, then he wouldn't ask.

Thinking that Jiang Bai's eyes were full of fear when he looked at him just now, Lu Chongshan looked out the window with some irritation.

"Let's go home."

When the driver heard his words, he immediately started the engine and drove in the direction of the Golden Harbor Villa.

On the other side, Jiang Bai found his location according to the text message sent by Jiang Zhoushi.

Seeing a familiar figure standing outside the café, Jiang Bai hurriedly walked over and patted him on the shoulder from behind.

"Zhou Shi, I'm here, where is my mother, where is she?"

Looking at Jiang Baihong's fluttering little face, Jiang Zhoushi smiled slightly, and wanted to reach out to help her straighten the broken hair on her forehead.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his hand reached over, Jiang Bai unconsciously took a few steps back.

For a moment, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

"Zhoushi, I ......"

Jiang Bai touched his nose weakly, and lowered his head slightly embarrassed.

Since Jiang Zhoushi confessed to her in front of everyone in the crew that day, she always felt that her relationship with him had changed slightly, and she could no longer speak without scruples like before.

Jiang Zhoushi smiled softly, not taking the change in Jiang Bai just now in his eyes at all.

"Xiaobai, my aunt has been stopped by me, let's go in first."

"Well, thank you."

Jiang Bai didn't expect Jiang Zhoushi to do things so properly, and his big eyes were full of emotion.

She nodded, and walked into the café with Jiang Zhoushi.

When I entered the café, I turned a left corner and saw a private room with excellent privacy.

Jiang Zhoushi walked in front gentlemanly, and the waiter waiting at the door saw them coming, and took the lead in opening the box door.

As soon as Jiang Bai entered, she saw her long-lost relative, her mother Meng Chengmei.

Compared with the previous dignified and elegant, unsmiling, now her mother has become much more obviously kinder, but the happiness in her eyes can't stop overflowing, and the whole person exudes a soft temperament.

"Mom, where the hell have you been? Why did you disappear when I came back? ”

When she saw Meng Chengmei, there were tears in the corners of Jiang Bai's eyes, and when Meng Chengmei saw Jiang Bai, she instinctively stepped back, her expression was cold, as if she was not his daughter, just a stranger.

"Your father and I have divorced, of course I want to leave the cage of the Jiang family."

Meng Chengmei said it confidently, and when she talked about the Jiang family, she gritted her teeth, her soft face looked very hideous, and even when she looked at Jiang Bai, she had obvious hatred, as if Jiang Bai was her shame.

Seeing his mother's hatred for him, Jiang Bai's heart hurt as if it had been cut repeatedly with a blunt knife.

Her crystal eyes sparkled with pain and disbelief, it turned out that for so many years, the Jiang family was nothing more than a cage for her mother.

"The Jiang family went bankrupt, did you do it?"

Jiang Bai wiped away his tears with the back of his hand, and stared at Meng Chengmei with a pair of teary eyes.

How she wished that she could say words of denial from her mother's mouth at this time, but she didn't expect the corners of Meng Chengmei's mouth to hook up a disdainful smile.

"How could I possibly do such a thing?"

Although Meng Chengmei denied it, the smugness in the corner of her eyes clearly told Jiang Bai that she did it.

Jiang Bai looked at such a mother, and felt so strange for the first time.

She couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart anymore, and rushed up and shook Meng Chengmei's shoulders frantically.

"Why are you doing this to Daddy and me?!"

Jiang Bai couldn't hold back any longer, and released all the pressure in his heart these days.

Looking at the crying girl in front of him, a trace of distress flashed in Jiang Zhoushi's eyes, he just wanted to go up to comfort her, but he didn't expect Meng Chengmei to push Jiang Bai away violently.

"Don't worry about your father's affairs anymore, live a good life in the future, don't think about getting justice for your father again, it's useless, the facts are the facts, you don't have the ability to overturn the facts, don't look for me in the future, live well."

Meng Chengmei glanced at Jiang Bai, who was crying sadly, with an indifferent expression, picked up her bag, took out a bank card from it and put it on the table.

"There are 500,000 in this, and the password is your birthday, so you can take it and live a good life."

After saying that, she didn't look at Jiang Bai again, and walked out with her bag with an indifferent expression, as if the 500,000 had bought out the mother-daughter relationship between them.

Jiang Bai looked at the familiar but unfamiliar back, and cried on the table.

What happened in the middle of this that her relatives who she thought were her enemies overnight?!

Her mind kept coming back to China, when her father was bankrupt in the Jiang family, and one night, when he jumped off the building to his death, the despair on his face.

It turned out that it was not the Jiang family that defeated his father, but the betrayal from the closest people around him!

Jiang Zhoushi looked at the tears on Jiang Bai's face, his hand was on her shoulder, and there was a little light in his gentle and firm starry eyes.

"Xiaobai, even if people all over the world betray you, I won't."

There was a firmness in the man's tone that was difficult to ignore, and Jiang Bai nodded reluctantly with a pale face, but there was a sadness in his heart.

Can even the most trustworthy relatives betray her, let alone others?

And at this time, it was pouring rain from the sky, which seemed to cleanse all the ugliness of the world.
