As Zhou Mingli watched Jiang Ci walk further and further away, a faint, gentle light welled up in the depths of his eyes.
He then frowned deeply, thinking of Jiang Ci's words.
When has he ever brought another woman to the villa?
Jiang Ci made no attempt to hide her anger, and was absolutely certain that he had another woman.
How is that possible?
Zhou Mingli followed closely behind Jiang Ci, analyzing Jiang Ci's words in his mind.
Would marrying her embarrass him?
No, for Zhou Mingli, being able to marry Jiang Ci was even more incredible, surprising, and unsettling than winning the lottery.
He became what others called a "phoenix man" (a man from a poor background who achieves success).
Perhaps he was still too naive in the first year of his marriage and was affected by other people's words, which made him unhappy. But after talking it out with Jiang Ci, Zhou Mingli no longer cared about other people's opinions of him because he was very busy.
Moreover, Zhou Mingli knew better than anyone how good his parents were to him.
And what about marriage of convenience... They've slept together so many times, does that count as a marriage of convenience?
Zhou Mingli would never bring other women to their home, let alone allow other women to use Jiang Ci's things, wear her clothes, or sleep in her bed!
And Jiang Ci's last words...
She even used the word "scum," so the other person must be extremely disgusting to Jiang Ci...
Zhou Mingli frowned deeply. He and Jiang Ci had never discussed their relationship, so he now strongly suspected that the root cause of their divorce was that someone was taking advantage of this, deceiving both of them and putting on an act to fool him and Jiang Ci.
Zhou Mingli thought for a long time and finally thought of someone.
Liu Ke was promoted to his office as a secretary, but less than two months later, the secretary-general said she was not capable enough and transferred her away.
Zhou Mingli remembered her because when the secretary-general brought her to him, Liu Ke mentioned that she and he were college classmates, and that she was Jiang Ci's roommate in the dormitory.
Then, when he returned from his business trip, Jiang Ci sent him a divorce text message.
There are too many details to discuss openly.
Zhou Mingli let out a breath of stale air. It was necessary for them to open up and talk about everything.
I quickly caught up with Jiang Ci.
“The road is difficult to walk on.” Zhou Mingli followed Jiang Ci, like the most loyal eunuch by the Empress Dowager’s side (not really), supporting her arm to help her walk more steadily.
Jiang Ci looked at him coldly, "Let go."
Zhou Mingli didn't loosen his grip; instead, he helped her to a firmer position. "An'an, I think there's a big misunderstanding between us."
He called Jiang Ci by her nickname.
My parents call Jiang Ci that when they are at home.
Jiang Ci sneered, "Are you going to tell me that the idea of you having someone you like is completely fabricated, and that I made it all up?"
Zhou Mingli: "..."
It's not baseless, nor is it fabricated.
He glanced at Jiang Ci.
He glanced at Jiang Ci again.
He glanced at Jiang Ci again.
Zhou Mingli's expression was strange; he clearly felt guilty.
Jiang Ci's smile grew even colder; she struggled to describe her current situation.
Anger and rage weighed on her chest, as if a mountain was pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe and suffocating her.
She doesn't want to see Zhou Mingli at all right now.
They even regretted asking for trouble!
If Zhou Mingli really died on the mountain, she would definitely go to the temple to burn incense and curse him so that he would be born without an anus in his next life.
Jiang Ci felt increasingly frustrated, and since her surroundings weren't a place for her to vent her anger, she could only walk faster and faster.
“I’ll help you walk faster.” Zhou Mingli followed beside her, trying to remain calm despite the rain hitting his face. “It’s too long to explain now, let’s talk about it when we get home.”
Jiang Ci felt that Zhou Mingli should really thank her for her good self-control, otherwise she would have punched him in the face and told him to get as far away as possible.
Before we even reached the bottom of the mountain, we could faintly hear shouts coming from below.
"Jiangci!!!"
"Zhou Lao Er!!!"
It was the production team who came looking for us.
Although most people in the production team didn't have a good impression of Jiang Ci and Zhou Mingli, when they braved the rain to go up the mountain, the team leader shouted, and the men still put on their raincoats and came out to look for them.
This involves two lives. With the rain so heavy, no one really wants to see Jiang Ci and Zhou Mingli die on the mountain.
Zhou Mingli immediately shouted, "We're here!"
Brother Yu and Gui'an were the first to notice them. "They're here! We've found them! Everyone, don't go any further into the mountains! We've found them!"
Hearing the commotion, the captain immediately shouted, "Everyone back! Everyone's back!!"
Brother Yu and Gui An quickly walked up to Jiang Ci and Zhou Mingli, anxiously asking, "Are you alright?!"
Jiang Ci and Zhou Mingli were both in a terrible state, soaked to the bone, their clothes clinging to their bodies, and covered in mud.
Zhou Mingli stepped forward in front of Jiang Ci, blocking Brother Yu and Gui An's view of her. "We're all fine. Brother Yu, did you bring an extra raincoat? I'd like to give it to my wife."
People gathered around, and Jiang Ci glared at Zhou Mingli with sharp eyes.
Zhou Mingli felt uneasy, but pretended to remain calm.
Brother Yu immediately took off his raincoat. "Second brother, give this to your wife."
"Thank you very much."
Zhou Mingli thanked her and wrapped the black raincoat around Jiang Ci's body, covering her completely.
This place is full of men. He, a grown man, isn't afraid of being seen by other men, but Jiang Ci isn't.
The captain also rushed over and asked with concern, "Are you all alright?"
Zhou Mingli replied, "It's alright, Captain. Let's hurry down the mountain. The rain is only going to get heavier, and it's not safe to stay on the mountain."
Once everyone was found, the captain didn't delay. He shouted, and the group hurried down the mountain.
