you" Zhou Li had thought of countless possibilities, but he never expected her to be so out of line, "Just you"Just as Jiang Mingzhu moved her lips, Zhou Li's phone rang. He let go of her to answer it...Actually, this question is asked knowing the answer.

Jiang Mingzhu thought Zhou Li wouldn't pay attention to such teasing words, but who knew he would retort, "What do you think"

The sudden enlightenment of the dog thing left Jiang Mingzhu stunned for a moment. She quickly smiled, "Because my brother was seduced by me"

"Everyone says you shouldn't mess with men in the morning, your brother was unsatisfied last night, he must be even more miserable today, right" Jiang Mingzhu said, leaning closer to him and letting out a soft breath in his ear.

"You're asking for death."

Jiang Mingzhu wasn't afraid. She was innocent and naive, blinking her eyes innocently with each glance, like she had hooks attached. "I can give you a massage, would you like that"

Her fingers lightly raked over the muscles in his arm, making it itch.

Zhou Li took a deep breath of cold air.

Ginger had long since gotten used to his duplicity. She didn't need him to answer, she just launched into action.

More than an hour had passed since the two people left their room.

After Jiang Mingzhu went downstairs, she started complaining about being hungry and wanted to drink sweet milk and eat scallion oil noodles.

Zhou Li called someone, and unbelievably, they actually delivered the things.

So the two of them sat at the dining table and ate together again. This was Jiang Mingzhu's most enjoyable part.

As soon as I opened the box, the aroma of scallion oil noodles filled my senses. The thick red sauce coating the noodles looked so delicious, just looking at it made my mouth water.

Ginger Mingzhu took a big bite, her mouth was puffed up. The sauce on her lips was licked clean by her tongue.

She eats like a refugee who hasn't eaten in half a year, although she takes large bites, her eating manners are not unsightly.

Compared to her, Zhou Li appears much more noble.

Before him sat a cup of soy milk, beside it were steamed buns. He elegantly picked up a steamed bun, brought it to his mouth and took a light bite, chewing it delicately.

Jiang Mingzhu was about to roll her eyes. That xiaolongbao wasn't even as big as a dumpling, he really didn't have to...

But... it looks pretty delicious.

Ginger Mingzhu swallowed nervously and smiled ingratiatingly at Zhou Li, her expression somewhat fawning.

Zhou Li looked at her calmly.

"Can I have one"

Her face was full of anticipation, that ingratiating smile, like a kitten begging its owner for treats, flattering yet with a hint of arrogance.

Zhou Li's throat felt a little dry, he took a sip of soy milk, "Whatever."

Having received permission, Ginger Mingzhu no longer hesitated. She picked up a small steamed bun with her chopsticks and shoved it into her mouth.

The soup inside the xiaolongbao bursts in your mouth, the savory flavors of pork and shrimp take over your palate, leaving you wanting more.

Jiang Mingzhu took another one and swallowed it in one gulp, as before.

"Could you please try to have some table manners"

Jiang Mingzhu's mouth pouted, "Hmm"

"Just be quiet."

Jiang Mingzhu took a few bites of the xiaolongbao and swallowed before saying, "If you eat like that, you would have starved to death long ago."

The Rites of Zhou:：“……”

Jiang Mingzhu stared at the plate of xiaolongbao, "Can I have one more"

"Whatever you want."

Ginger Mingzhu: "Brother is so good~"

Zhou Li once again witnessed Jiang Mingzhu's appetite.

The xiaolongbao was eaten by half, and she thought she wouldn't be able to eat the scallion oil noodles. However, she finished every single noodle and drank all the milk.

After eating her fill, she patted her stomach and suddenly felt remorse. "My stomach is all puffed up," she said.

Zhou Li：“……”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

To eat so much, and not have your belly get bigger is unnatural.

Ginger Mingzhu: "Hee hee, brother, do you want to touch my round tummy"

Zhou Li: "Not interested."

Ginger Mingzhu pouted: "Well then."

At this moment, Zhou Li's phone rang. It was Xu Siyan calling.

During the Zhou Ritual, when Ginger Mingzhu was present, he stood up and said, "Shiyan."

Xu Siyan: "Fourth Brother, where are you I have something to discuss with you face-to-face."

Zhou Li: "Come to Yuan Yin Manor."

Xu Siyan: "How did you get there"

Zhou Li didn't answer, just said "I'll wait for you," then hung up the phone.

——

After breakfast, Ginger Mingzhu went to the courtyard to admire the scenery.

The courtyard is planted with roses, and at a glance, it's clear that they are tended to by someone. They bloom very well.

The estate was surrounded by a fence with towering sycamore trees, their branches lush and dense. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves, creating a soothing whispering sound.

Ginger Mingzhu was admiring the scenery in the courtyard when she suddenly heard the sound of the gate being pushed open.

She looked up and saw that it was Xu Siyan.

Xu Siyan was clearly also surprised to see her. His original relaxed expression suddenly became a few points more serious.

"Damn it, wait for me!" He was followed by another person from the field.

After Yuan Ye finished complaining to Xu Siyan, she saw Jiang Mingzhu, "What are you doing here"

"You can come, but I can't"

"You're not happy unless you're picking on me every day, are you"

Jiang Mingzhu: “Who let you say I’m worse than you.”

Xu Siyan stood aside, completely reduced to an observer. He watched Jiang Mingzhu and Yuan Ye speak to each other, his face becoming increasingly grave.

Having grown up in this circle, Xu Siyan is best at observing people's expressions and gauging their thoughts.

Jiang Mingzhu and Yuan Ye seemed to have suddenly become very familiar, and according to his understanding of Yuan Ye, he would never allow a woman to confront him like this so easily, and laugh so happily.

At this time, Zhou Li came out of the room.

Xu Siyan: "Fourth Brother."

Zhou Li turned to Xu Siyan and nodded, gazing towards the field. He hadn't expected him to follow as well.

Upon seeing the vast plain, Zhou Li immediately distanced himself from Jiang Mingzhu, like a mouse encountering a cat.

Jiang Mingzhu laughed so hard, it was obvious he was scared of Zhou Li.

Before Zhou Li could even ask, Yuan Ye had already blurted out, "Fourth Brother, I didn't do anything to her. Don't glare at me."

Zhou Li didn't answer, he took Xu Siyan and Yuan Ye to the stone table in the courtyard and sat down.

Jiang Mingzhu was not interested in their topic and played alone in the flower field, picking roses.

---

After finishing work, Xu Siyan's gaze swept across Jiang Mingzhu who was not far away.

Xu Siyan: "Fourth Brother, you've decided to keep her by your side"

The Zhou Ritual has not responded.

Xu Siyan just had to remind him, "Yu Bai's mind is very astute, don't underestimate a woman's sixth sense. Even if you hide it well, sooner or later it will be discovered."

"Don't worry about my affairs."

"Xu Siyan: 'Right now, we haven't figured out her purpose. It's best to be careful.'"

"Brother Four, your mind is so sharp, you don't need me to remind you."

Zhouli: "She can't come up with anything clever."

"The fourth brother was blinded by beauty. Who can blame him Jiang Mingzhu is beautiful and knows how to tempt people, tsk tsk."

Zhou Li's gaze swept coldly over the field, "Well, has it seduced you"

The wilderness: "..."

Damn, the old geezer said something wrong again.

"Zhou Li: “You better get that straight with Xiao Zhi quickly.”

Yuan Ye felt very wronged, "Fourth Brother, I was just covering for you! I can't stand seeing women around you. If she knew about Jiang Mingzhu being your mistress, Jiang Mingzhu's life would be really difficult."

Zhou Li: "Well, are you feeling sorry for him again"

"Yuan Ye was dumbfounded. "Fourth Brother, you wouldn't be jealous, would you"

Zhou Li went back to his room without looking back.

Xu Siyan asked Yuan Ye: "What did you do with Jiang Mingzhu" she took notes, and her position was next to Zhan Yubai.The company's higher-ups arrived one after another. Zhan Yanqing was the last to arrive, and when she saw Jiang Mingzhu, her eyes almost popped...
