The moment he entered the door, Zhou Li's gaze froze on the opposite side, and his jaw and lips were tense.

The person waiting for him was not Fu Xiaozhi, but Jiang Mingzhu.

There is a bar counter in the living room of the villa, next to which is the wine cabinet, Jiang Mingzhu is sitting in the bar, looking at him with a glass of wine in his hand.

She had a smile on her face, the same smile she had on the day they first met.

Hypocrisy and artificiality.

Zhou Li didn't like it very much.

He stood still, but his right eyelid jumped, Jiang Mingzhu avoided him before, and suddenly asked him to meet through Fu Xiaozhi, which was really abnormal.

Jiang Mingzhu: "It's here, come and sit."

Although it was an invitation, her voice and attitude were not enthusiastic.

Zhou Li closed the door and walked to the bar to stop.

Jiang Mingzhu picked up a wine glass and poured half a glass of red wine for him, and pouted, "Don't you sit?"

Zhou Li sat down, but didn't touch the glass of wine, he looked at her sharply, and there was a solemnity around him.

"You're looking for me."

Jiang Mingzhu: "Hmm."

She replied only one word, but her eyes kept looking at him, as if smiling rather than smiling, with a fatal attraction, dangerous and tempting.

Zhou Li: "What's the matter?"

Jiang Mingzhu didn't answer, picked up his glass of wine and shook it, "Cheers?"

Zhou Li didn't move: "If it weren't for something, you wouldn't take the initiative to find me."

After saying this, he felt a little more self-deprecating in his heart, and his fingers tightened a little unconsciously.

After Jiang Mingzhu heard this, he was more sure of his previous thoughts, and his complaint was obviously a double meaning.

Jiang Mingzhu: "Well, I have something to ask you."

Zhou Li: "Say."

Jiang Mingzhu: "When I was hospitalized, you always had a good attitude towards me, why did you kick me suddenly?"

Zhou Li: "I answered."

Jiang Mingzhu: "But I'm not satisfied with your answer, because you can't convince me at all."

Zhou Li: "I don't need a reason to do things."

Jiang Mingzhu: "Is there no need for a reason, or is it because you can't let me know because of a reason?"

Her eyes narrowed, and the corners of her mouth curled into a mocking smile.

Zhou Li's brows furrowed, his heart kept sinking, he knew that Jiang Mingzhu couldn't ask this kind of question for no reason—what did she know?

There was silence all around, and the already quiet villa was now eerily quiet.

Behind all the calm is the waves.

Finally, it was Jiang Mingzhu who interrupted the silence with a short laugh: "Can't you make it up, my good brother."

Zhou Li looked at her expressionlessly, as if he didn't know what she was talking about at all.

Jiang Mingzhu had to sigh at Zhou Li's acting skills, he often said that her acting skills were good, but in fact, she was nothing compared to him.

The foreshadowing was enough, Jiang Mingzhu didn't want to beat around the bush anymore, she slowly opened her lips in Zhou Li's calm gaze.

"I've always wondered how a proud person like you could be indifferent to being like this, not only pretending not to know that she was engaged to Zhan Yubai, but also investing a lot of money in her lover."

"You disappeared for a few days before dumping me, and no one knows where you went and what you went to do?"

Zhou Li's face became more and more ugly, his right eyelid was beating wildly, and his heart rate was constantly increasing.

Jiang Mingzhu tilted his head to look at him, "It's been more than two months since you got rid of me, do you remember what you said the day you kicked me off?"

Without Zhou Li answering, Jiang Mingzhu smiled and continued to output: "You behaved so disgusted with me that day, as if you didn't want to see me in your life, and then you liked me a few days ago and liked me so much that you were willing to give me the card containing all your property-"

Zhou Li interrupted her with a sharp speech: "Jiang Mingzhu."

Jiang Mingzhu: "I think your acting skills are much better than mine, Zhou Li."

"The days you disappeared, you went to investigate

Zhan Yubai and Su Min, you kicked me off because you suspected that Zhan Yubai was using charity as an excuse to get the children in the welfare home to do live experiments on Su Min." She had a direct showdown, "You want to find out about this matter but you don't want me to get involved, because Zhan Yubai had already killed me at that time, and you dumped me so ruthlessly and then got engaged to Zhan Yubai, on the one hand, you can gain her trust to facilitate the investigation, and on the other hand, you can temporarily dispel her idea of killing me."

Every time Jiang Mingzhu said one more word, Zhou Li's face became ugly, and he, who had never shown any dew, was already a little unable to control his emotions at this time, his eyes were bloodshot, and his shoulders were extremely stiff.

Jiang Mingzhu: "You let her enter Wanhua and invest in Su Min's laboratory, just under the pretense of Mrs. Zhou's reasoning, she pushed the boat down the river and put a long line to catch big fish, I'm not wrong."

"This matter is risky, once it doesn't go well, any dangerous situation can happen, you are afraid that something will happen, so you don't want me to get involved, but you didn't expect that after you kicked me, it would cause the relationship between me and Yuan Ye to get closer and closer, and you were anxious to see me and him developing rapidly, so you started to give gifts, and went to the hospital to talk to me like that."

Jiang Mingzhu leaned a little closer in front of Zhou Li, and stared at him with a pair of eyes: "You said that I should wait for you, just for you to finish investigating this matter."

Jiang Mingzhu is more like a fox when he is aggressive, smart and cunning, and he is like watching fire.

For the first time in his life, Zhou Li was forced out of the feeling of "nowhere to hide" by a person.

He took the red wine glass next to him and drank it down, his breath unsteady: "How do you know?"

It couldn't be what Zheng Rinsu told her.

When Zhou Li talked to Zheng Rin about the investigation on the phone before, the only consensus reached between the two was to hide it from Jiang Mingzhu, so it was impossible for Jiang Mingzhu to know that he was investigating Zhan Yubai and Su Min.

Jiang Mingzhu hooked the corners of her mouth, picked up the red wine bottle and poured him half a glass.

When she was about to stop, Zhou Li suddenly pressed her hand: "Answer my question."

Jiang Mingzhu didn't struggle, and said with a smile, "Because I have brains."

"You kicked me too suddenly, when you obviously started to check Zhan's words, and suddenly stopped talking about getting engaged to her, I thought she did something earth-shattering and moved you."

Jiang Mingzhu's statement is more in line with the development of Zhou Li's presupposition.

He squeezed her hand, "Go on."

Jiang Mingzhu: "Do you remember the WeChat I sent you that day?"

As soon as she mentioned it, Zhou Li immediately remembered it.

The only time she took the initiative to find him during this time, three in a row, as for the content-

Zhou Li was empowered, and his eyes flashed with a dangerous light: "You are here to test me."

He said an affirmative sentence.

Jiang Mingzhu knew through Zhou Li's eyes and tone that he had deduced: "Yes."

"Even if you really trust her, it's impossible to do anything like an alleged homicide investigation, and I won't be naïve enough to think that you're protecting your fiancée, and your relationship hasn't reached that point."

Speaking of which, Jiang Mingzhu's mood is still very stable.

Zhou Li looked at her calm and analytic appearance, and squeezed out a sentence between his lips: "This is what you are, the previous collapse in front of me was all acted."
