Chapter 397 So dog-like, even a dog would shake its head.
Liu Xiaojie's face turned deathly pale instantly, and her fingers gripped the hem of her skirt tightly.
She never expected that Zhou Mubin would come looking for her.
And judging from his appearance, he's probably here to settle scores with me.
After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly stood up, reached out to grab Zhou Mubin's arm, and softened her tone, "Lawyer Zhou, I admit that I drugged you, but I did it for our own good."
Zhou Mubin flung her hand away with such force that Liu Xiaojie staggered back two steps. "You drugged me for my own good? Liu Xiaojie, you disgust me."
Xie Nanzhi watched from the side, wanting to laugh but unable to; she was actually in a bit of pain from holding it in.
She coughed lightly and couldn't help but speak up, "Miss Liu, Old Zhou is indiscriminate in his tastes. He doesn't even want what's offered to him. Shouldn't you look at your own problems? Using drugs like that, with Old Zhou's character, even if he sleeps with you, do you expect him to take responsibility for you?"
Zhou Mubin glared at Xie Nanzhi, annoyed. "Are you sure you're not trying to humiliate me?"
Xie Nanzhi patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, you're not worthy to humiliate me."
Zhou Mubin's eyes nearly popped out, while Xie Nanzhi laughed even harder, "Don't be angry, I'm not your target. Continue, I won't say anything more."
Seeing their attitudes, Liu Xiaojie knew that there was no point in arguing anymore, so she decided to go all out and a fierce glint flashed in her eyes. "I admit that I put the drug in, but didn't I do all this because I love you? I didn't want you to get too close to Cui Xiao. I came back this time to have a child for you."
Having a baby?
Zhou Mubin seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world. "Are you crazy or am I crazy? If everyone in the world were dead, would I make you have my child? Liu Xiaojie, let me tell you, from now on, don't let me see you again, or I'll make sure you can't stay in this country."
This time, Liu Xiaojie was truly frightened. Seeing Zhou Mubin turn around, she immediately grabbed his hand and said, "Lawyer Zhou, I was wrong, I was really wrong. Please let me stay by your side. I don't need a title."
Zhou Mubin was really angry this time. He forcefully shook off Liu Xiaojie's restraints and said, "Get out."
He pushed Liu Xiaojie away and walked forward without looking back.
Xie Nanzhi walked ahead and entered the elevator first. When she saw Zhou Mubin's completely dark face, she burst out laughing, "Hahaha, that's hilarious. Old Zhou, you've finally had a day like this. It's not easy."
Zhou Mubin said with a dark face, "I really regret it. How could I have made such a bad friend like you?"
Xie Nanzhi patted his shoulder and said with a grin, "By the way, you still haven't told me why Cui Xiao dumped you on the side of the road?"
Zhou Mubin is now sober and remembers everything.
His words at the time were unintentional and not his true intention.
Zhou Mubin refused to say, "Don't ask anymore, I won't tell you."
Xie Nanzhi shrugged. "I'm too lazy to know. It's either the body acting up or the mouth acting up."
Zhou Mubin gasped, "I said, why does your mouth sound like it's coated with poison? Aren't you afraid of poisoning Wei Chizheng to death?"
At that moment, the elevator doors opened.
Xie Nanzhi walked out and waved to him, "My husband is here to pick me up. You'll have to figure out how to get home yourself."
Zhou Mubin chased after her, "Nanzhi, we grew up together, at least take me back!"
Xie Nanzhi waved her hand, "It's not on my way."
Zhou Mubin persisted, saying, "Wei Chizheng said the Earth is round."
Xie Nanzhi retorted irritably, "Get lost."
As soon as they stepped out of the club, they saw Wei Chizheng's car parked on the side of the road. Mu Lin opened the car door and said, "Sister-in-law, get in."
Without a second thought, Xie Nanzhi got into the car and slammed the door shut, leaving Zhou Mubin outside.
"Mulin, drive."
Sitting next to Xie Nanzhi, Wei Chizheng intertwined his fingers with hers. "Aren't you going to see Zhou Lu off?"
Xie Nanzhi joked, "Don't worry about him, he won't die."
Wei Chizheng and Zhou Mubin exchanged glances, both looking helpless.
As the car drove away, Zhou Mubin grabbed his phone, opened the three-person group chat, and sent a meme of a dripping blood knife.
As an aside, "Nan Zhi, you've successfully aroused my murderous intent."
Xie Nanzhi smiled, holding her phone, and typed: "Liu Xiaojie drugged you, and you didn't even try to kill her, but you tried to kill me? Are you even human?"
The next second, Xibei popped up: "What? Someone drugged Lao Zhou, and it was a man?"
Immediately, Xie Nanzhi burst out laughing. [A woman.]
Xi Bei sighed with regret, "Tsk tsk tsk, why would you need to drug a woman? Isn't that just pointless and unnecessary?"
Xie Nanzhi ruthlessly remarked, "Old Zhou has reformed; he's now a paragon of virtue, not so easy to get his hands on."
Xibei: [I don't believe a dog can change its habit of eating poop. Looks like it's not hungry.]
Zhou Mubin silently replied, "I said, you two have had enough."
Xibei: [No way.]
Zhou Mubin: [Xibei, believe it or not, I'll charge over there right now with an eighty-meter-long broadsword!]
Xi Bei: [You dare to act tough with me? Go ahead and kill Nan Zhi's family if you dare!]
Zhou Mubin: [Others have loyal dogs protecting them, so of course I'll start with you, the single dog.]
Xibei got angry: "Damn it, Lao Zhou, you bastard, are you bullying me?"
Zhou Mubin: [Let's hurt each other, who's afraid of who?]
Xibei: [No wonder Cui Xiao looks down on you; you're so treacherous, even a dog would shake its head in disapproval.]
Zhou Mubin: [You shook your head?]
Xie Nanzhi kept laughing; watching these two banter was more interesting than watching a comedy sketch.
Suddenly, Wei Chi asked, "So happy?"
Xie Nanzhi put away her phone and took Wei Chizheng's arm. "Xibei and Lao Zhou are having a battle of wits in the group chat. Their fighting spirit is at its peak, and the atmosphere is thick with tension."
Wei Chizheng smiled and said, "I really envy your friendship."
When the three of them are together, it's normal for them to tease each other, but no matter how much they bicker, they all know in their hearts that their friendship will never break down.
Moreover, they can harm themselves and each other, but outsiders cannot lock a single word.
If one of them is in trouble, the other two will do anything to help.
Xie Nanzhi knew that he was thinking of Wei Xuechen again.
Xie Nanzhi comforted her, "Not everyone has a conscience, and not everyone is worth your time and sorrow."
According to current investigations, Wei Xuechen is very likely still alive, probably living abroad, but there is no definite news yet.
Wei Chizheng had accepted this fact. He gently stroked her hand and said, "I know, don't worry."
Mu Lin parked the car at the villa, and Wei Chizheng led Xie Nanzhi in quietly.
When Xie Nanzhi received Cui Xiao's call, the children were already asleep.
Only one dim light was left on in the living room. The maid hadn't slept and was waiting to serve Xie Nanzhi and Wei Chizheng when they returned home.
A maid came over and took the coat from Wei Chizheng's hand. "Sir, would you like some late-night snacks?"
