53 Something is wrong...

"Are you okay? I'll ask someone to bring some clean clothes right away." Butler Liu said quickly.

"I'm fine. No need, Butler Liu. Please call a driver to take me back." Wen Zihuan shook his head and walked out.

It was not until he went downstairs that he realized he was not wearing shoes. Just as he was about to turn around to look for them, he bumped into Zhou Jingbai who was rushing over.

"Why am I here?" Wen Zihuan said anxiously.

"I brought you back. You fell asleep in the car. Lu Zhou was not at Zhou's house recently. I don't know where his private residence is, so I could only bring you here first."

If you think about this sentence for a while, you will find that it is full of loopholes. How could they not know about their friendship for many years? Even if they really didn't know, they could just make a phone call and ask.

Wen Zihuan could also sense that he was lying, but he didn't have time to expose him now.

"I want to go back." He said bluntly.

"Okay, I'll let the driver take you. Change your clothes first, right? We can't just go back like this, right?" Zhou Jingbai looked at the wet clothes of the person in front of him.

Wen Zihuan pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment before nodding and following Butler Liu to the room to change clothes. Unexpectedly, the clothes he brought out were his previous ones. He thought that his things would definitely be lost after the divorce.

After changing clothes, he found that Zhou Jingbai had appeared outside as a driver.

"Didn't you say to let the driver take me back?" Wen Zihuan asked in confusion.

"The driver just went out. Let me take you." Zhou Jingbai said seriously.

Wen Zihuan looked around and indeed could not find the driver or the car he usually drove, so he had no choice but to get in.

The atmosphere in the car was very strange, and neither of them made any sound, and the sound insulation of this car was really good.

It felt like he could hear the breathing and heartbeat clearly, and Wen Zihuan simply closed his eyes and rested.

"When did you and Lu Zhou..." Zhou Jingbai was the first to break the silence.

"I didn't cheat on my wife." Wen Zihuan answered bluntly.

"That's not what I meant. I was impulsive that day."

"What do you mean now?" He couldn't bear it anymore and asked directly.

Because Zhou Jingbai had been very strange since they met at the dinner last time. He broke up with Fang Xingluo, and... began to actively stick to him.

"I want to apologize to you." Zhou Jingbai spoke after a long silence.

"Apologize?"

"I didn't expect him to do such a thing, and if Lu Zhou hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been disastrous. I also sent people over immediately, but it was just a step too late."

Wen Zihuan's first reaction to hearing these words was to find it funny. The only child of the Zhou family was actually apologizing to him here.

They had been married for three years and he had only heard a few apologies, not to mention that it was said in such a humble tone.

"Since it's in the past, let's not mention it again. It wasn't you who asked anyone to do it." Wen Zihuan wanted to end the topic directly. During

this period of time, his focus was on the company. He had finally forgotten the scene at that time and didn't want to recall it again. He didn't want to care about what happened now.

Seeing this, Zhou Jingbai could only take back what he wanted to say next.

The two of them were silent all the way, but before they reached their destination, Lu Zhou called first, but it was to Zhou Jingbai. As soon as

the call was connected, Wen Zihuan heard the excited tone of the other party, even if the speakerphone was not turned on, he could hear it.

Zhou Jingbai calmly turned down the volume, "I'm on my way to send him back to your place, don't worry, he's fine."

The two chatted briefly before the call was hung up. When they arrived, Lu Zhou rushed over and opened the car door. "Are you injured? Why didn't you say hello to me when you were going to a party with employees? You also said you had to work overtime and would be back late. You've learned to lie now, and you were drunk. Do you know that if you meet someone with ulterior motives in a place like that, you'll be in trouble, don't you?"

Zhou Jingbai stood aside and listened silently to the endless scolding in his ears, but he could tell that they were not blaming him.

Wen Zihuan was scolded and kept his head down. He was worried that if he told the truth, Lu Zhou would not agree to go to the party and drink. He originally wanted to have a few drinks and leave, but he didn't expect to encounter the following things.

"And you, Zhou Jingbai, I went there to ask, you took the person away a long time ago. I don't think it takes so long to drive from the store near the company to my place."

After Lu Zhou lectured this person, he turned his attention to the other person.

Zhou Jingbai had no way to refute this point. He had to admit that he did lie before and he deliberately took the person back, so he chose to remain silent when questioned.

Wen Zihuan looked at the two men who were full of gunpowder and quickly went over to pull Lu Zhou's sleeve, "It's because he showed up in time to save me that I'm fine."

After hearing this, Lu Zhou's expression finally eased a little, "Is that really the case?"

Wen Zihuan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, then turned to look at Zhou Jingbai, "Thank you for today, go home early, it's so late."

After saying that, he pulled Lu Zhou into the house, leaving Zhou Jingbai standing alone outside in the cold wind in the middle of the night.

After entering, Lu Zhou's expression was still ugly, "Do you know how many times I called you?"

"I left my mobile phone in the store, and it seems to be broken." Wen Zihuan answered with his head down.

Lu Zhou sighed and rubbed his temples. At this time, he suddenly noticed that the person in front of him had changed his clothes, and it was not the same set he wore today.

"What's the matter with the clothes?"

Wen Zihuan told the truth, but Lu Zhou was obviously even angrier.

"Go back and have a rest first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." He hesitated for a long time and finally said nothing and just waved his hand.

After watching the back disappear at the stairs, Lu Zhou came to the sofa and sat down. His expression changed from anger to confusion.

Zhou Jingbai has been a little abnormal recently. He has hardly had any contact with him since he brought Wen Zihuan back. Although the two companies have cooperated and have maintained it for so many years, naturally they can send other people to come forward.

He thought that good news would come from there soon, but he suddenly learned today that Fang Xingluo was going to get engaged, but the person he was engaged to was not Zhou Jingbai. He deliberately asked someone to find out what was going on.

After all, they have been inseparable all these years and have been inseparable. Besides, aren't they already planning to get married?

But after asking around, he still didn't know the inside story. It seemed that it was a conflict between the two of them, otherwise it would be impossible to find out.

Later, he thought about it and it had nothing to do with him, so he stopped paying attention to it. He didn't expect that such a thing would happen today.

The most crucial thing is Zhou Jingbai's attitude towards Wen Zihuan. He took the person home and made an excuse that he took him back to his home first because he didn't know his address here. This poor excuse is really too poor.

He has been here several times, and he didn't treat this place as a secret base.

He also asked Wen Zihuan before whether Zhou Jingbai said anything, and he said that Zhou Jingbai apologized to him, and thus learned some of the truth about the kidnapping.

This also surprised him that Fang Xingluo, who seemed harmless and innocent, could actually do such a thing.

When he led people there that day, he saw that the kidnappers were holding knives and were really going to attack Wen Zihuan.

If it was really for show, why would he have to go this far? It seemed that he wanted to take Wen Zihuan with him to avoid any worries in the future. After all, they were not divorced at that time. No matter how close he and Zhou Jingbai were, the position of Mrs. Zhou would not be his in the end. After

Zhou Jingbai returned home, he looked at the living room as usual, but he felt empty in his heart. Perhaps too many things had happened recently.

He went to the study to work as usual. Halfway through, housekeeper Liu persuaded him several times but it was useless and he had to give up.

During this period, Zhou Jingbai worked until late almost every day and sometimes stayed up all night. He did not tell the Zhou family about this for the time being. After all, if Zhou's mother knew about it, she would definitely be furious. Of course, this was also Zhou Jingbai's instruction.

Zhou Jingbai did not go back to his room until dawn and slept for a while, but he was soon awakened by a phone call.

The call was from Zhou's mother. The content was very simple. She had not been back to the old house for a long time, and asked him to go back.

Zhou Jingbai agreed casually and hung up the phone. He did not remember this matter until three days later.

After returning, he was scolded, and he just sat on the sofa, turning a deaf ear to it.

"What happened between you and Xingluo? You divorced on your own initiative and said you were going to marry Xingluo, but you didn't want to get married the next time. Are you still a child? You can joke about such things." "

Your health has been getting more and more stable in recent years. I think the master's method really worked, but now you chased him away." She was furious when she thought about it.

Anyway, Zhou Jingbai only notified her when the divorce procedures were completed. He just notified her.

Zhou Jingbai and Fang Xingluo grew up together and had a relationship. Of course, she knew that if he hadn't followed the master's method to marry Wen Zihuan, the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, it would definitely be Fang Xingluo. After all, the two families are well matched and have a good relationship, and the two children also have a foundation for love.

It took her a long time to convince herself at that time. Now that her physical condition has stabilized, it shouldn't have much impact now that Wen Zihuan is gone.

Zhou Jingbai has a stubborn temper, but if he doesn't agree with him and Fang Xingluo's marriage, he certainly can't give up, so he just agreed.

As a result, they broke up suddenly before they got engaged. The key is that she has no idea why. Anyway, Fang Xingluo is already engaged to someone else. The wedding will be next month, and they have sent them invitations. Now she doesn't know whether to go or not.

Zhou Jingbai just listened silently and didn't intend to answer her question just now.

Seeing his absent-minded look, Zhou's mother was so angry that she couldn't speak.

"Are you done? If you're done, I'll go back first. I have a meeting this afternoon." Zhou Jingbai got up and was about to leave when he saw that there was no sound for a long time.

"Stop right there! The group is not out of people, stay here and have a good rest for a few days."
