Chapter 39: I Can't Wait

ral degrees colder."His name is Zheng Linshu, CEO of Hongcheng Qingcheng Capital. His relationship with Jiang Mingzhu is not ordinary," Xu Siyan said. "When I was looking into Jiang Mingzhu, I encount...After work, as Fang Qinyang entered the house, she had already ordered a pile of takeout waiting for Jiang Mingzhu.

Seeing Jiang Mingzhu's listless appearance, Fang Qinyang quickly asked, "What's wrong"

Jiang Mingzhu and Fang Qin yang arrived at the restaurant. She picked up a slice of cantaloupe and put it in her mouth. The sweet and refreshing taste helped cool her down.

Ginger Mingzhu: "Zhou Li this trash."

Fang QinYang: "What did he do to you"

Ginger Mingzhu: "He threatened me with his earring, making me accompany him to client meetings."

We are all adults, and everyone in the business world knows how to properly accompany clients.

Fang QinYang: “Is he a pervert”

Jiang Mingzhu: “He is, always unpredictable, like a madman who can't get what he wants.”

Fang Qinyang pondered for a moment and said, "You should bring your self-defense stick tomorrow, can that get through security"

"No need to bring it."

Fang Qin yang: “Then you…”

"I don't know what got into him, but judging from his behavior when he claimed territory like a dog before, he shouldn't really make me accompany other men."

Ginger Mingzhu's anger wasn't about this. Even if Zhou Li really made her accompany him, the worst that could happen was that both of them would lose everything, she wasn't afraid of anything.

She's just bothered by the feeling of being threatened, that's all.

Fang Qinyang was persuaded by Jiang Mingzhu, but she was still quite worried. She couldn't help but speculate, "What kind of attitude does Zhou Li have towards you now And what kind of attitude does he have towards Zhan Yubai"

Ginger Mingzhu: "You don't look down on me, you don't want to marry me, but you want to sleep with me, and you also can't stand other people touching me."

Ginger Mingzhu summarized accurately, and finally threw out that timeless saying, "Humans are born wicked."

Fang Qinyang thought it made sense, "He wants to be deeply in love with Zhan Yubai while also having a secret relationship with you. He's pretty scummy. I used to think he was a monk."

Ginger Mingzhu opened the pizza and took a bite, smiling mockingly. Zhou Li was abstinent He was more than capable of indulging himself. Every time he was in bed, he pushed people to their limits, like someone who hadn't touched a woman in centuries.

In the morning, Fang Qin yang sent Jiang Mingzhu to the airport. At the departure gate, Jiang Mingzhu waited for a few minutes, and Zhou Li and Liang Cong also arrived.

Liang Cong asked, "Have Ginger and the others been waiting for a long time"

Ginger Mingzhu: “Just arrived.”

Ginger Mingzhu only responded to Liang Cong's words. After seeing Zhou Li, she didn't go up to greet him, showing no respect towards the boss at all.

Liang Cong glanced at Jiang Mingzhu, then at Zhou Li, "General Manager Zhou, Assistant Jiang, I'll go handle the boarding procedures."

During the flight, Jiang Mingzhu sat alone in a row and slept the whole way. Zhou Li, on the other hand, discussed work matters with Liang Cong.

However, Liang Cong could obviously feel that Zhou Li's attention wasn't entirely focused. He would occasionally glance over to Jiang Mingzhu.

As a clever assistant, Liang Cong pretended not to see this.

That day when Liang Cong saw the earring in Zhou Li's office, he immediately recognized it as Ginger Mingzhu's.

What would a man and woman have to do, how intense, to make an earring fall off

That day, Zhou Li suddenly sent him a text message asking him to go to the office. Liang Cong was completely confused until he saw the earring, and finally understood the whole story.

Fortunately, he had been through many storms over the years and had excellent psychological resilience. He lied without batting an eyelid and successfully helped Zhou Li deal with Zhan Yu Bai.

But Liang Cung was still surprised. He didn't expect Zhou Li to secretly collude with Jiang Mingzhu...

Ginger Mingzhu, that's the woman his nephew likes. If she were to be found out someday... wouldn't the Jan family and Zhou family end up in a complete mess

Liang Cong thought about this and felt a little scared. He still decided to protect the two of them well, so as to avoid bloodshed.

The day after returning to the company, Zhan Yanqing gave Zhan Yubai a warning.

During the meeting, he opposed James Yu Bai's investment plan along with several high-level executives.

This matter quickly spread within Feihe.

Jian Yubai's identity isn't a secret within the circle. Ordinary employees might not know, but Peak Harmony's executives are well aware of it.

She's just an adopted daughter, no matter how capable she is, the company will eventually end up in James Yen-Qing's hands.

The meeting ended on a sour note. James Yu heard quite a bit of gossip and his mood plummeted to the lowest point.

She could no longer maintain her usual gentle demeanor and walked out of the office building.

Jian Yu Bai slammed the car to a stop on an empty, deserted road, pounding the steering wheel with all his might. His face was contorted into a terrifying grimace.

Jane had been on this road for over half an hour, her emotions finally calming somewhat.

She expertly touched up her makeup in the rearview mirror, a gentle smile gracing her lips.

When Zhan Yu Bai drove to Wanhua, his journey was smooth all the way until he reached upstairs. However, he was informed by the secretary's staff that Zhou Li was out on a business trip.

Zhan Yubai's face paled. Zhou Li hadn't told her about this at all.

Jane said, "Who did he take with him"

The secretary said, “Liang Zhu and the new assistant Ginger are here.”

Jane said, "Okay, I understand. Thank you."

Jan Yubai kept her grace as she stepped into the elevator, but her face quickly fell.

In the late afternoon, Jiang Mingzhu was called to Zhou Li's room.

Before he arrived, Zhou Li asked her to dress up. Jiang Mingzhu chose a red figure-hugging dress that reached below the knee, just revealing her straight and slender calves and ankles.

She wore a pair of black stiletto heels, and as she walked, her hips and waist swayed together, captivating everyone's attention.

After Jiang Mingzhu entered the room, Zhou Li's gaze immediately fell on her.

Ginger Mingzhu intentionally revealed a shy expression, her teeth biting down on her lower lip. Her gaze, as if holding a hook, seemed to waver between speaking and remaining silent.

Zhou Li let out a light sigh, “It seems you can’t wait any longer.”

Jiang Mingzhu glanced down and retorted, "Brother seems more eager than I am."

Zhou Li pursed his lips and remained silent.

Jiang Mingzhu boldly walked towards him, her fingers pointing downwards, "Brother, do you like me this much Just looking at me makes you so excited, I'm so surprised."

Zhouli: "Get your dirty hands off me."

Ginger Mingzhu: "Playing with words and not meaning them gets boring after a while, brother."

Buzz buzz buzz—

When Zhou Li was about to push Jiang Mingzhu away, his phone rang in his pocket. Jiang Mingzhu reached out to take it from his pocket.

Zhou Li got her phone out first, but Jiang Mingzhu still saw the caller ID.

"That's your fiancée's call," Jiang Mingzhu said with a smile. "Brother, pick it up quickly, don't worry her."

Jiang Mingzhu teased him verbally, but her hands were not idle. Taking advantage of his inattention, she pressed the answer button.

"Is anything the matter"

Jian Yu Bai: “Were you on a business trip”

Zhou Li: "How do you know"

"I came to the company looking for you. Your secretary said that you went on a business trip with Liang Zhu and Mingzhu."

Ginger Mingzhu heard her own name and smiled softly, her hand wandering over Zhou Li's body.

Zhou Li held her hand, responding to Zhan Yu Bai, "It was a last-minute decision, I didn't have time to inform you."

"It's fine, just... you take Mingzhu with you... Is she familiar with the company's business"

Jiang Mingzhu smiled even brighter. This was the beginning of testing, wasn't it If she didn't do anything, how could she live up to this phone callstuck out her tongue and licked around that bulge in a circle.Zhou Li's body tensed up, his breathing became heavy, and he uncontrollably gasped for air.The stifled breaths reached James Yu-Bai's ears...
