But Jiang Mingzhu didn't mean to get out of the car at all, and looked at Zhou Li with a pair of eyes.

Zhou Li: "Get out of the car."

Jiang Mingzhu: "I can't walk."

She licked her lips, "Carry me up, Zhou Li."

Zhou Li moved his lips, and when he was about to refuse, Jiang Mingzhu suddenly covered his stomach.

Zhou Li's eyes lit up: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Mingzhu: "I don't know, it hurts so much all of a sudden...... Can you carry me up and have a look?"

Zhou Li: "......"

Of course he knew that Jiang Mingzhu might lie to him.

But the outcome of this matter cannot be gambled.

Zhou Li got out of the car, walked around to the passenger door, and squatted down on his knees.

Jiang Mingzhu successfully lay on Zhou Li's back, wrapped his two arms around his neck, and buried his chin in his shoulder.

Smelling the familiar smell on Zhou Li's body, Jiang Mingzhu smiled.

It's a little uncomfortable to be rejected all the time, and even if you know that Zhou Li is just making trouble, it's still uncomfortable.

She is not a saint.

But when she was carried by Zhou Li, she suddenly felt that the haze was swept away, and her mood was very bright.

Zhou Li carried Jiang Mingzhu to the hotel room.

At six or seven o'clock, there were many people in the hotel elevator and corridor, and the two of them appeared in such a posture, attracting a lot of people's attention.

I also ran into one of Zhou Li's partners on the way.

The other party's eyes were extremely ambiguous when they looked at him.

After entering the room, Zhou Li put Jiang Mingzhu on the sofa and turned his gaze to her lower abdomen: "Where does it hurt?"

Jiang Mingzhu: "It's much better now."

Zhou Li: "...... Isn't it fun to lie to me?"

Jiang Mingzhu: "Why did you let me go upstairs with me if I didn't lie to you?"

She didn't mind admitting that she was lying, and as she spoke, she got up from the couch and walked up to him and wrapped her arms around him, "Come with me after dinner, okay?"

She winked at him while shaking his arm, with a childish expression on her face, but with a deadly and dangerous appeal.

Zhou Li: "Why?"

Jiang Mingzhu: "Because I'm chasing you."

Zhou Li: "I haven't agreed yet."

Jiang Mingzhu: "So I'm trying to let you eat with me."

No matter what she says, it's innocent.

Zhou Li sneered, "You are chasing people with this trick."

"What do you mean, 'all, I've only chased you alone!'" Jiang Mingzhu glared at him angrily, "It's not because you're too difficult to chase, if I don't lie to you, you won't come up with me."

After Zhou Li heard her say, "I've only chased you alone," his face finally softened a little.

He glanced down at Jiang Mingzhu's hand wrapped around his arm, "Let's eat and leave."

Jiang Mingzhu: "Okay, then you wait for me."

She let go of him and ran to get her phone.

Zhou Li: "I don't eat junk food."

Jiang Mingzhu: "I know, I know."

——

When Jiang Mingzhu ordered takeout and waited, Zhou Li received a call from Xu Yingfei.

Seeing Jiang Mingzhu's excited appearance, Zhou Li walked to the terrace of the room to answer the phone.

As soon as the phone was connected, Xu Yingfei got straight to the point and said, "I'm flying to California tonight."

Zhou Li: "The Xu family has already contacted you?"

Xu Yingfei: "I contacted it at three o'clock in the afternoon."

Zhou Li: "Well, contact me for something."

Xu Yingfei: "Just stop Jiang Jin."

Hearing Xu Yingfei say this, Zhou Li's eyelids jumped, "What do you mean?"

Xu Yingfei: "I drugged him, and I should have been in California when he woke up."

She didn't elaborate on what was going on, but Zhou

Rite immediately understood: "He originally wanted to go back with you?"

Xu Yingfei: "He wants to go to Xu Langqing's side to be an undercover agent to find evidence, I can't let him take this risk, you must help me stop him."

Zhou Li: "Are you sure this is what he wants?"

Xu Yingfei: "I'm just sure that he will definitely not end well when he returns to the United States with me."

Her voice was very rational, "Jiang Jin is different from you, he has no backer, Xu Langqing wants to kill him easily, I can't-"

"In that case, why did you provoke him?" Zhou Li interrupted Xu Yingfei's words, and said sharply, "Don't think you're making decisions for others."

Xu Yingfei was speechless by Zhou Li's words and fell into silence.

Her silence also made Zhou Li realize his gaffe.

He sorted out his emotions: "Just think about the consequences."

Xu Yingfei: "Thank you, first."

After talking to Xu Yingfei on the phone, Zhou Li stood on the terrace and didn't go back for a long time.

The fact that Xu Yingfei made a decision for Jiang Jin without authorization easily reminded him of the past when Jiang Mingzhu hid his illness.

At the beginning, the ups and downs of heaven and hell tormented him for so many years.

The shadow of the past still hangs over my heart today.

Even if Jiang Mingzhu is now called a "stalker" to him, he still has no confidence.

In a similar situation in the future, he may still be given up by her.

——

Zhou Li stayed on the terrace alone for more than ten minutes.

It was only after a cold wind blew that he reacted.

It's almost time, and the takeaway ordered by Jiang Mingzhu should be almost there.

Thinking of the picture of Jiang Mingzhu holding his arm and looking at him expectantly, the restlessness in Zhou Li's heart was calmed down a lot.

He gathered his emotions and returned to the hotel living room from the terrace.

When he walked out, Zhou Li found that the lights in the living room had gone out.

Zhou Li was not familiar with the layout of the hotel, so he could only use the light source of his mobile phone to illuminate the way.

"Jiang Mingzhu." Zhou Li called out her name.

No response.

It's eerily quiet.

Zhou Li could only hear his own footsteps.

Zhou Li frowned, and a strong uneasiness welled up in his heart, "Jiang Mingzhu, are you there?"

Still no response.

Zhou Li's expression became even colder.

He pinched his phone and quickened his pace as he walked towards the door.

Walking to the door of the room with a stiff face, Zhou Li was just about to raise his hand to touch the doorknob, when the door of the wardrobe next to him was suddenly opened.

The cold movement startled Zhou Li, and he immediately turned around to look over-

The first thing you see is the light of the candle.

Through the light, he saw Jiang Mingzhu's face.

At that moment, Zhou Li felt his hanging heart return to his stomach.

But when he saw the cake in her hand clearly, his heart began to beat wildly again.

I can't restrain myself, and every minute feels like I'm about to burst my throat.

Jiang Mingzhu held the cake and walked towards him step by step.

Finally stopped less than a meter away from him.

She started singing.

An incredibly familiar melody.

"Happy Birthday Song".

Zhou Li clenched his fists and watched intently as she finished singing a whole song.

Several complex emotions were so intertwined that he couldn't react for a while.

Until Jiang Mingzhu smiled and urged him: "Hurry up and make a wish and blow out the candles!"

Zhou Li came back to his senses and approached Jiang Mingzhu step by step.

Soon, there was only one cake left between the two.

Zhou Li was urged by Jiang Mingzhu to make a wish and blow out candles.

As soon as the candle goes out, the lights in the room come on.
