Chapter 410: Cornered

Zhou Li was silent for a few seconds after listening to Jiang Jin's words, and said coldly: "You have a very clear position for yourself."

Jiang Jin smiled.

Clear, of course.

From the beginning, he knew that Jiang Mingzhu was not the kind of person who would be coerced by "blood".

When he found her, Jiang Jin didn't think about interfering in her life and choices, but just wanted to fulfill his mother's last wish and his grandparents' long-cherished wish.

Jiang Jin: "The second elder does have the intention of letting her stay, but do you think she will stay with her character?"

The answer to this question takes little to think, "Even if she is single, it is impossible to stay, let alone you."

The meaning of this is complicated.

Zhou Li: "What's wrong with me?"

Jiang Jin: "Don't you think she is very indulgent to you?"

He pondered for a moment, "In other words, her life revolves almost around you right now, and she's having fun with it."

Jiang Jin's words made Zhou Li fall into thought.

Maybe it's because the authorities are obsessed, he doesn't feel that Jiang Mingzhu is revolving around him now.

Jiang Jin knew that he didn't realize it when he looked at Zhou Li's expression, and he chuckled, "I didn't understand it before, but now I feel that your care and care for her is also worth her revolving around you like this."

Zhou Li did not respond to Jiang Jin's compliment.

After a few minutes of silence, Zhou Li coldly changed the topic: "How is the Xu family?"

When it came to the Xu family, Jiang Jin's expression was much deeper: "The impact of the case has basically passed."

Zhou Li: "What about Xu Yingfei?"

Jiang Jin: "It's the same as before, doing her own work."

Zhou Li: "You used the Xu family to threaten her."

What he said was an affirmative sentence, and Jiang Jin didn't need to answer at all.

Jiang Jin didn't answer the question either, he seemed a little repulsed by the topic.

Zhou Li: "You are a member of the Wen family, why did you go to be Xu Yingfei's bodyguard?"

He looked at Jiang Jin with a sharp gaze, "Also, how did you contact the police so quickly? Who are you?"

There were so few people in the first class cabin on this flight that you could count on one hand.

Except for Zhou Li and Jiang Jin, the rest of the people were basically sleeping.

The two of them were talking in a low voice, barely audible.

——

When the flight landed at San Diego Airport, it was ten o'clock in the morning local time.

Jiang Mingzhu was woken up by Zhou Li half an hour before landing.

San Diego has a mild climate, with temperatures not as low in the winter as in the North City, and the air is humid and warm.

The appraisal was arranged to be done tomorrow, Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li did not go back to Wen's house with Jiang Jin, but went directly to the hotel.

Just take this opportunity to live a two-person world.

Jiang Mingzhu slept enough on the plane, and he often flew to the United States before, so there was almost no problem of jet lag.

After a short rest at the hotel, the two went out to eat.

The restaurant is one recommended by Jiang Mingzhu's classmates a long time ago, and it is an Internet celebrity restaurant in San Diego.

As soon as Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li walked to the door of the restaurant, they ran into Xu Yingfei.

Xu Yingfei was followed by a woman about her age, judging from the gesture of the two talking, they should be good friends.

Seeing Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li head-on, Xu Yingfei was obviously surprised, staring at them for a long time without reacting.

Jiang Mingzhu came to the United States this time to explain to Xu Yingfei about the previous matter, but he didn't expect to see him so soon.

Jiang Mingzhu took the initiative to ask Xu Yingfei, "Are you free in the afternoon?" Let's have afternoon tea."

Xu Yingfei nodded in agreement.

She also has a lot of doubts and speculations that she needs to verify with Zhou Li and Jiang Mingzhu.

After lunch, Xu Yingfei's friends left first, and she came alone to meet Jiang Mingzhu and Zhou Li.

There is a café right next to the restaurant

hall, the three of them went upstairs and sat down.

Zhou Li asked Jiang Mingzhu for a cup of plant milk, and he and Xu Yingfei drank coffee.

Xu Yingfei saw Zhou Li ordering Jiang Mingzhu so naturally, and said "congratulations" with a smile.

"I saw the news you made public some time ago." Xu Yingfei smiled and said, "I'm waiting to eat your candy."

Her attitude was very gentle and atmospheric, and she didn't mention Zhou Li's rebellion at all.

As a result, Jiang Mingzhu was quite upset.

She turned her head to look at Zhou Li.

Zhou Li looked at Xu Yingfei and said "sorry" to her.

Apologize for not answering her phone before.

But Xu Yingfei didn't want an apology: "I want to hear the reason."

She said calmly, "Jiang Jin should have looked for you."

Zhou Li: "Yes."

Xu Yingfei touched the coffee cup, her eyes narrowed slightly: "How did he negotiate with you?"

"He tied me up." Jiang Mingzhu took Xu Yingfei's words, "His condition is that neither I nor Zhou Li help the Xu family, nor do we contact you."

At that time, Jiang Mingzhu didn't know Jiang Jin's purpose for doing this, but after these things happened later, it was easy to speculate: "He wants you to be cornered and can only beg him in the end."

"If I'm not mistaken, there must be some agreement between you?" Jiang Mingzhu stared at Xu Yingfei and asked.

Xu Yingfei's psychological quality has always been good, and she was not embarrassed by Jiang Mingzhu's question: "Hmm."

Jiang Mingzhu's gossip psychology was hooked: "Is it convenient to reveal it?"

Xu Yingfei: "......"

Jiang Mingzhu saw that she was very embarrassed, so she smiled and waved her hand: "Okay, it's okay if you don't say it."

"I just want to tell you that before you tricked him into leaving him alone to go back to the Xu family, he should be very angry, it is very scary for a man to be cautious, you know." Jiang Mingzhu squeezed her eyes at Xu Yingfei.

Xu Yingfei immediately glanced at Zhou Li.

Jiang Mingzhu doesn't mention Zhou Li in every word, but every word is Zhou Li.

After Zhou Li was connotated, he took a sip of coffee in a sullen voice.

Jiang Mingzhu saw it, but didn't coax him, and continued to say to Xu Yingfei: "If Jiang Jin says anything that stimulates you, you should not hear it, he is duplicitous, in fact, he cares to death in his heart."

Xu Yingfei nodded, she suddenly remembered something, "What are you doing in San Diego?" For the sake of the case?"

Jiang Mingzhu: "No, there are some other things."

Xu Yingfei hesitated for a while, and said to Jiang Mingzhu, "Then you be careful Jiang Jin, I seem to have heard him ...... before."

"Actually, I have something to tell you." Jiang Mingzhu coughed and said to Xu Yingfei seriously, "Jiang Jin and I seem to be half-brothers and sisters."

The words fell, and there was a dead silence all around.

Xu Yingfei's expression can be described as "jaw-dropping".

It was a long time before she regained her voice: "...... How could it be such a coincidence."

——

Xu Yingfei couldn't digest this matter for an afternoon.

Until she returned to the villa in the evening, she still had the brother-sister relationship between Jiang Jin and Jiang Mingzhu in her mind.

Xu Yingfei walked into the living room absentmindedly and stopped in front of the shoe cabinet and bent down to change her shoes.

As soon as she leaned down, her waist was suddenly grabbed from behind, and she was startled.

Until you feel the familiarity.

Xu Yingfei turned around: "Didn't you say you wouldn't come back?"
