It was Tang Li.
Zhou Lie was instantly jolted awake and instinctively tried to close the door.
But in the end, they were still a step too late.
Clearly, when it comes to competition between men, speed is the most important factor.
Strength comes second.
No matter how fast Zhou Lie reacted, he couldn't outpace Lu Zhixing's fist.
Already bruised and swollen, he covered his nose and howled after taking that punch:
"Tang Li, this is illegal intrusion. I can sue you."
Tang Li waved his phone:
"Brother Zhou Lie, are you sure you don't want to invite me in? If my sister-in-law were here, she would definitely invite me in, pour me a glass of water, and bring out some melon seeds, peanuts, fruit, and the like to treat me."
This is a threat!
A blatant threat!
Zhou Lie knew that if he let her in, his men would be rendered useless.
But if he doesn't let her in, he'll lose his home.
After thinking it over, Zhou Lie moved two steps to the side and let them in.
After all, it was the Lunar New Year, and in order to please his little lover Chu Nai, Zhou Lie prepared a lot of treasures in this golden house where he kept her.
The variety of fruits is extensive, comparable to a small fruit stand.
After washing a large plate of cherries and strawberries and placing it on the table, Zhou Lie was about to get busy when Lu Zhixing stopped him.
Startled, Zhou Lie stumbled and collapsed to the ground.
He instinctively covered his head with both hands:
"Don't hit me in the face."
With a face like that, there's no way to attack him anymore, so why bother protecting him?
Lu Zhixing lifted him up with one hand, threw him onto the sofa, and pointed at him:
"Sit still. We're not going to eat your food. We'll ask a few questions and then leave. If you answer well, you can avoid being beaten. If you don't answer well, the beating will continue until she's satisfied."
What an overbearing order.
They show absolutely no regard for God's feelings!
But things...
If you don't eat it, you're wasting your time.
I've had too much late-night snack, so I'll have some fruit to cleanse my palate.
Tang Li picked up the plate of cherries and moved it closer to Zhou Lie:
"The cherries are very fresh. I'll eat this plate for my sister-in-law. You don't mind, do you?"
I don't mind.
As long as we don't contradict each other, everything is negotiable.
Zhou Lie pointed to the large double-door refrigerator and said:
"There are two more boxes of 10-pound packs inside. I'll pack them up for you to take with you later."
"Alright," Tang Li replied, "Then let's get down to business. Tell me yourself, what did you do to Tang Yuan that night at the tasting event?"
Give him a chance to cancel the order.
But he's useless.
He had to lie: "I didn't do anything."
There's no cure!
"Go ahead and beat her up." Tang Li turned slightly to the side and continued eating the cherries in her hand.
One punch.
Two punches.
Left and right cheeks.
It's very symmetrical.
Zhou Lie howled, "I really didn't do anything."
"Then we should fight! Keep going."
Another punch.
Two punches.
Still the left and right sides of the face.
It is still very symmetrical.
Zhou Lie protested: "You at least have to give me a reason why I got beaten up!"
You need a reason, right?
Lu Zhixing raised his fist:
"That's an extra request of yours. Getting beaten up earns you points, which gives you a reason to get beaten up. Do you want it?"
Well...
This will also get you beaten up.
Let's forget about it then.
Zhou Lie gave up struggling.
Tang Li put down the fruit plate and stood up:
“Since you won’t tell me, then I will. That night, Tang Yuan noticed something was wrong with the drinks. When he realized he was out of control, in that critical moment, the first person he thought of was his best brother who had grown up with him.”
"But you, the brother he could entrust his back to, pushed him out of the water when he came for help, leaving him to be plotted against and framed."
"Zhou Lie, have I wronged you? Do you dare to admit it?"
Seeing Lu Zhixing raise his fist, Zhou Lie dared not deny it.
but......
"I didn't close the door, and I didn't push the person open it."
Those who need to defend themselves should still do so.
Zhou Lie squinted at Tang Li: "Whether you believe it or not, it was Chu Nai who pushed him out, and it was also Chu Nai who closed that door. At the time, we were both drunk and passionate, and we were about to do our thing."
"So, it's because Tang Yuan was being irresponsible and ruined your plans? He's the one who's at fault?"
Lu Zhixing could barely contain his fists.
However, Tang Li blocked the punch.
She stared at Zhou Lie's face, a face so unrecognizable even to his parents, and smiled:
"What a coincidence, Chu Nai pointed you out."
Is it time to start a counter-espionage plot?
Lu Zhixing looked at Tang Li, it was a pity that her other hand was wrapped in gauze, otherwise he would definitely have given her a thumbs up.
Zhou Lie was stunned by Tang Li's words.
"Impossible, this has nothing to do with me." Zhou Lie was almost frantic.
After all, this fist can kill; if he keeps hitting him, he'll really be crippled.
Tang Li calmly said:
"Last night, you must have spent all the thought and time you never spent on your sister-in-law on planning a romantic New Year's Eve for Chu Nai. It's just a pity that Chu Nai didn't come. Do you know what she was doing?"
Zhou Lie waited for her all night.
But Chu Nai didn't even answer his call.
“She was with me last night,” Lu Zhixing replied.
Zhou Lie glanced at Lu Zhixing, then at Tang Li, and immediately rejected the idea:
"Impossible. With your personality, you would never allow your man to date another woman on such an important day."
