"Cui Qin took her out to eat delicious food. I cleaned the house. Cui Qin would never kidnap the child." Qiao Ke said.
Cui Qin would not kidnap children, and Zhou Zi knew this. But there was one thing that Cui Qin had said more than once, that she wanted to let Wanwan and Jiang Jingcheng meet to promote the relationship between Zhou Zi and Jiang Jingcheng.
Zhou Zi also didn't know why Cui Qin was so optimistic about her and Jiang Jingcheng?
However, Cui Qin once swore to Zhou Zi that she would not interfere in this matter.
At eight o'clock in the evening at Zhou Zi's home, Cui Qin had not yet sent the child over, nor had she called Zhou Zi.
Zhou Zi couldn't sit still anymore, so she called Cui Qin. Cui Qin's phone was turned off. She started to get anxious and continued calling. She called more than ten times, but no one answered. She called Cui Qin's office, but no one answered either. She called her assistant, but the assistant said he didn't know where President Cui was.
Zhou Zi immediately rushed out with the car keys. She was afraid that Cui Qin would take Wanwan to find her biological father.
Although it was not time to get off work, there were still a lot of people on the road. Zhou Zi was uneasy. She honked the horn rapidly and called Cui Qin to see if her phone was turned on.
If it wasn't an accident that the phone ran out of battery, she must have turned it off on purpose just to prevent Zhou Zi from knowing.
Zhou Zi didn't understand. What good would it do for her if she reconciled with Jiang Jingcheng?
What's more, she and Jiang Jingcheng will never reconcile!
The car finally stopped downstairs of Jiang's group. Zhou Zi locked the car and rushed to Jiang Jingcheng's office. Zhou Zi had made up her mind that if Jiang Jingcheng didn't come to the office, she would go to his home. Because Zhou Zi's home was closer to Jiang Jingcheng's company, she went to the office first.
She didn't even knock on the door, but just pushed open Jiang Jingcheng's office door.
Jiang Jingcheng was sitting behind his desk, chatting with a foreigner sitting opposite him.
Compared with Zhou Zi's uneasy and uncomfortably calm appearance, Jiang Jingcheng had a decent smile on his face, legs crossed, leaning back in a chair in a comfortable and casual posture, speaking fluent Spanish to the foreigner.
Zhou Zi didn't see Cui Qin and the child, and she felt relieved. Her heart was in her throat just now, but now it suddenly relaxed, and she almost collapsed to the ground.
The foreigner also glanced at Zhou Zi at the office door, then stood up and shook hands with Jiang Jingcheng. "If Mr. Jiang has guests, I'll go first! I had a very pleasant chat with Mr. Jiang this time. I'll send someone to deliver the contract tomorrow, and please review it then!"
"Okay, goodbye." Jiang Jingcheng glanced at Zhou Zi who was standing at the door in panic.
The foreigner stopped and nodded at Zhou Zi when he passed by her. Zhou Zi also nodded.
Jiang Jingcheng sat back in his chair, looked at Zhou Zi, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Zi was still in a state of panic over her child's disappearance. Unable to figure out how to respond, she quickly made up a lie. "I had a dream this afternoon while taking a nap at home. I dreamed of you—" Zhou Zi's mind raced. "I dreamed you were dead, so I hurried over to see you. Last time at the club in Jiangcheng, you also said you 'wanted me dead,' and I didn't think that was a good sign, so—I came to see you."
Jiang Jingcheng looked at Zhou Zi and asked, "Do you dream about me?"
"Yes. Maybe you appeared in Fengcheng recently."
Jiang Jingcheng lowered his head and smiled, that super unkind smile again, "Then I can finally say I'm praying to the gods and burning incense!"
"You're welcome!" Zhou Zi replied very unhappily.
"Thank you for your concern, Miss Zhou. But speaking of which, you are quite lucky for me. He decided to sign the contract as soon as you arrived!" After saying that, Jiang Jingcheng stood up and was about to leave.
When passing by Zhou Zi, Jiang Jingcheng turned his head to look at her and said, "By the way, I heard that dreams are the opposite of reality. You dreamed of my death, which means I will live well, unless—"
"Unless what?" Zhou Zi asked.
"Unless you want me to die!" After saying that, Jiang Jingcheng walked out.
Zhou Zi still couldn't confirm whether Jiang Jingcheng had met Wanwan, so she followed him out.
"Has this foreigner been talking here all afternoon?" Zhou Zi asked, standing behind Jiang Jingcheng.
"No, two hours."
Zhou Zi finally breathed a sigh of relief. It had only been two or three hours since Cui Qin picked Wanwan up.
Jiang Jingcheng tilted his head and looked at Zhou Zi again, but he still couldn't understand why she suddenly broke into his office tonight.
Miss him?
That's impossible.
Zhou Zi went downstairs and got into the car. She calmed herself down. Not long after, Cui Qin called and Zhou Zi hurriedly picked up the phone.
"Where are you?" Zhou Zi asked in an anxious and somewhat angry tone.
"This afternoon, I brought my child to the Tongxin Club to play. Since I was bringing a child, I didn't know that my phone was out of battery. Are you worried? Oh, Zeng Jin, come here too." Cui Qin sounded quite apologetic.
Wanwan saw her mother was looking for her so anxiously, so she called out cautiously on the phone, "Mom——"
Zhou Zi said, "Wait for mom!"
I rushed to the Children's Club.
Cui Qin sensed Zhou Zi's displeasure and followed her, "Why are you so angry? I took the kids out to play and my phone ran out of battery. I didn't know. I just wanted her to develop some feelings for Zeng Jin, didn't I?"
Zhou Zi was getting increasingly angry, and she turned to Cui Qin, "Don't you think you're overstepping your bounds? Who the child chooses to develop a relationship with is my business! Besides, don't you know the child's physical condition?"
After saying that, Zhou Zi picked up the child and got into the car.
Cui Qin was left alone, standing there blankly.
Jiangcheng at this time.
Zuo Dan finished today's field interviews without stopping. She asked the photographer to leave the hotel and went to Jiang's house alone - Jiang Jingcheng's home.
Everyone in Jiangcheng knew where Jiang Jingcheng lived, and Zuo Dan also knew that Jiang Jingcheng's current residence was Fengcheng, not Jiangcheng.
When entering the Jiang family's mansion, Zuo Dan felt a gloomy and uninhabited atmosphere, and the feeling of the courtyard being very deep and deep was very strong.
She thought to herself: How could Jiang Jingcheng's home be like this?
Jiang Jingcheng likes a lively atmosphere, his home shouldn’t be like this!
As soon as I entered the hall, a person who looked like a nanny approached me alertly, "Who are you looking for?"
"Oh, that's right. I'm from Fengcheng TV Station. I've interviewed Ms. Jiang before, and today I want to interview her family." Zuo Dan's lie was flawless.
"Wait a moment!" The nanny turned around and went to a room. After a while, she came out pushing a middle-aged woman.
Zuo Dan looked at this woman, who was noble and cold, with a pair of eyes like an eagle's, making Zuo Dan dare not breathe in front of her.
"You are—"
"Jiang Jingcheng's relative - Xue Mingmei, Xiao Zhang has already told me the reason for your visit. I'm sorry, but I have no further comment!"
Zuo Dan thought, the four words "no comment" were exactly the same as what Jiang Jingcheng had said to her.
It's a girl.
Zuo Dan put on a smiling face again. After all, the person in front of her might not just be Jiang Jingcheng's relative. If she wanted to enter the Jiang family in the future, this would also be a threshold.
"Look, Mr. Jiang once mentioned his ex-wife on the show, and I want to ask—"
"That woman? She died a long time ago! She's been dead for five years! That's it!" After saying that, Xue Mingmei let Xiao Zhang push her into her bedroom.
"Oh, by the way, this time we came to interview you without telling President Jiang. We wanted to give you a surprise. Could you please not tell President Jiang?" Zuo Dan said hurriedly from behind.
Xue Mingmei didn't say anything, went into her bedroom and slammed the door shut.
The ex-wife died? But why did Jiang Zong say that she didn't?
Zuo Dan was very puzzled and went to Fengcheng the next day.
She was in a hurry and did not ask Passerby A or Volkswagen Jiang Jingcheng who his ex-wife was.
What she thought was that she would definitely make an incognito visit next time.
I miscalculated this time. I didn't expect Jiang Jingcheng's relative to be such a person.
After she arrived, Zhou Zi came to find her.
Zhou Zi came to Zuo Dan to sign the unsigned documents. Zuo Dan said to Zhou Zi mysteriously, "I secretly went to meet Jiang Jingcheng's relatives yesterday!"
Zhou Zi's whole body trembled, and her face immediately turned pale.
"What's wrong with you?" Zuo Dan said.
"No. I was so angry yesterday that I didn't sleep well."
"What's wrong?" Zuo Dan asked again.
"It's still about work. You just said that you met Jiang Jingcheng's relatives." Zhou Zi asked. She was afraid that Zuo Dan would find out something, which would really create more trouble.
"Yes, his relatives said that Mr. Jiang's ex-wife passed away a long time ago! But from what Mr. Jiang said, it shouldn't have happened." Zuo Dan said in a puzzled tone.
Zhou Zi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Her mood had been up and down these past few days, like a roller coaster.
She felt that with Jiang Jingcheng coming to Fengcheng, it was only a matter of time before that past was exposed. But now, she would rather hide in her tortoise shell. She didn't want to see the wind, frost and rain that day.
"I don't know, maybe he is really dead!" said Zhou Zi.
So many years have passed, and in the eyes of Jiang's family, her death is normal.
Zhou Zi sat in her office chair in a daze the entire afternoon, with two words constantly popping up in her mind - dead.
Why is it that the word "death" is always associated with it these days?
Jiang Jingcheng mentioned "death" more than once, and today, she was also "dead".
Before she knew it, Zhou Zi had stayed in the office until after eight o'clock. When she was getting off work, a sudden downpour made it difficult for her to get her car. She stood outside the TV station, watching the heavy rain, at a loss as to what to do.
She didn't say it was going to rain. If she had known, she would have taken an umbrella.
Jiang Jingcheng's car passed by here, I don't know if it was intentional or just a coincidence.
Jiang Jingcheng saw Zhou Zi huddled under the eaves of the platform with her arms folded, and she was at a loss as to what to do.
He stared at Zhou Zi for as long as his car was parked on the side of the road.
After a while, he said to the driver in front, "Go and give Miss Zhou an umbrella!"
"good."
The driver got out of the car, holding an umbrella himself and bringing another umbrella for Zhou Zi.
