Chapter 57: A Broad Hand

Linxu said, "Don't forget what you promised San San."Zhou Li watched Jiang Mingzhu effortlessly and smoothly lie to Zheng Lin. After throwing her the phone, he pressed the central control lock, “Get...Jan Yu's face turned pale instantly, her fingers clenching the breakfast bag tightly.

She took a few deep breaths before knocking. After hearing Zhou Li's permission, she pushed the door open and walked in.

Seeing Fu Xiazhi, Zhan Yubai was a little surprised, "Liuli, what are you doing here"

Fu Xiazhi: "Do I need to report to you when I come to Wanhua"

Jan Yu Bai was embarrassed by Fu Xiaozhi's words, but she still kept her gentle demeanor. "You misunderstood me, I was just a little surprised. Have you two had breakfast I bought sandwiches..."

Whenever she saw Zhan Yu Bai's hypocritical manner, Fu Xia Zhi would feel sick to her stomach. "No need, seeing you ruins my appetite,"

"Xiaozhi," Zhou Li warned her in a flat tone, "tone it down."

Fu Xiazhi: "I won't back down. What are you going to do about it"

Zhou Li's face darkened, and he looked angry, but he didn't do anything to Fu Xiaozhi.

Fù Xiǎozhī was even less afraid of him, with an expressionless and nonchalant look.

Finally, Zhan Yu Bai came out to smooth things over, "Zhou Li, you two just have this kind of personality, don't be angry. I brought breakfast, you should eat it while it's hot."

Zhou Li: "Hmm."

Zhan Yu Bai walked up to Zhou Li and very naturally took his arm, also smoothing down the collar of his suit.

"You're not married yet, so you're acting like his wife."

The Zhouli said, "Have Xingfu inform Xiaozhi."

Fu Xiaozhi saw Zhan Yubai's deliberate show of affection and wanted to roll her eyes. She patted Zhou Li's arm, "If you dare not come, I'll chop you up."

Without giving Zhou Li a chance to answer, Fu Xiaozhi strode away.

Every morning, Ginger Mingzhu would habitually bring coffee to Zhou Li. As she was just walking towards the office door with the coffee, she bumped into Xiao Zhi Fu.

Fu Xiazhi, like last time, slammed the door and looked extremely displeased.

Seeing Jiang Mingzhu, Fu Xiaozhi finally smiled, "Hi, good morning."

Ginger Mingzhu: "Good morning, you came so early"

Fuzhi Xia: "Did you bring coffee for Zhou Si on Thursday"

Jiang Mingzhu: "Mmm."

"Don't send it, James Yu Bai brought it for him. This cup is for me."

Ginger Mingzhu: "Have you had breakfast There are breads in the tea room."

Fu Xiazhi came over after finishing her morning exercise. She hadn't eaten, so she went to the tea room with Jiang Mingzhu at the secretary's office.

The benefits for employees at Wanhua are pretty good. The break room has bread and all sorts of snacks, so Fu Xiaozhi grabbed a loaf of bread with an Americano and chatted with Jiang Mingzhu for a few minutes.

Ginger Mingzhu listened to Fu Xiaozhi speak for a few minutes before she realized that she had come over today because of her grandfather's birthday.

Jiang Mingzhu already knew what kind of person Fu Xiaozhi's grandfather was. The fact that he could invite Zhou Li meant he valued him very much, and the relationship between the two families was indeed good.

Actually, Fu Xiazhi and Zhou Li are a perfect match.

When Jiang Mingzhu was pondering, Fu Xiazhi asked her, "Are you free this weekend Come over too."

"Me"

Fu Xiaozhi: "Don't you consider me a friend"

"This isn't a suitable setting..."

Fu Xiazhi: "There's nothing inappropriate about it, I rarely make friends."

Against her better judgment, Ginger Mingzhu eventually agreed to Xiaozhi's invitation.

After Fu Xiazhi finished eating, she left. Jiang Mingzhu returned to her workstation and carefully thought about what Fu Xiazhi had just said.

When it's Fu Xiaozhi's grandfather's birthday, the Zhou family should also go. Zhou Li's mother... will definitely be there.

Ginger Mingzhu bit her lips tightly, her eyes suddenly reddening.

Before she could think further, Liang Cong had already notified her to attend a meeting.

——

Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Today's meeting is a follow-up meeting for the medical project between Fenghe and Wanghua. Liang Cung used to be in charge of this project, and Jiang Mingzhu is attending the meeting for the first time.

When Zhan Yubai saw Jiang Mingzhu and Liang Cong appear together, a slight stiffness appeared on his face.

She pretended to be casual and asked Zhou Li, "Has Jiang Zhu also joined this project"

The Zhouli says: "Liangcong has many things to do, so he needs someone to share the workload."

Jane spoke, “It’s good, Ginger has always been very capable. This is well deserved.”

Having said that, Jan spoke softly and encouragingly to Jiang Mingzhu, "Keep going."

Ginger Mingzhu: "Thank you, Mr. Zhan."

The more gently Zhan Yu Bai smiled, the fiercer Jiang Ming Zhu's hatred became.

Someday, she will tear off this mask of pretense and leave her with no smile left.

After the meeting, it was almost noon. Jiang Mingzhu saved the meeting minutes document and when she was packing up her things, she happened to see Zhan Yubai get up and hug Zhou Li.

"We haven't had lunch together recently. Will you have lunch with me today" Jan Yu Bai even sounded endearing when she was being a bit coquettish.

"What do you want to eat"

"The sushi place we ate at last time was pretty good."

Zhouli: "As you wish."

Jiang Mingzhu curled the corner of her lips and smiled silently. Zhou Li looked at her, just in time to see this smile.

Jan Yu Bai's gaze followed Zhou Li, stopping afterwards with a slightly sullen expression.

Jane said, "Ginger, remember to take a break at noon, don't work too hard."

"Thank you, General Manager Zhan, for your concern. I won't disturb you and General Manager Zhou's sweet moments."

After she finished speaking, she left decisively.

Zhou Li stared at the direction Ginger Mingzhu left, without a word.

Jane said, "Why are you staring at Assistant Ginger all the time"

She is not attractive.

Jiang Mingzhu used to bring her own lunch every day, but after Zheng Linshu found a nutritionist to prepare three meals for her, she said goodbye to the company cafeteria.

During lunchtime, everyone went out, but Jiang Mingzhu was alone in the small conference room eating lunch.

Later, the door of the meeting room was pushed open. Jiang Mingzhu looked up and it turned out to be Zhou Li.

She put down her chopsticks and raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you supposed to be having dinner with your fiancee Brother still has time to see me"

Zhou Li shut the door and sat down facing her, his gaze fixed on her lunch box.

Zhou Li: "What did you do"

Ginger Mingzhu: "Of course not, brother. Do I look like someone who can cook"

Who made it

"Brother, you're being a bit too lenient. Perhaps you should pay more attention to your fiancée."

Ginger Mingzhu lowered her head to eat. A shrimp slipped into her mouth, and she savored it with relish, her tongue unconsciously licking her lips.

Zhou Li's throat tightened, and he suddenly stood up.

Jiang Mingzhu was startled by his sudden movement and almost choked.

She looked up, bewildered. When Zhou Li saw her eyes, he felt the evil fire within him burn even brighter.

He turned and walked away, leaving only one sentence: "Come to my office after work tonight."

Ginger Mingzhu savoring his words, finally understood why he had reacted so strongly just now.

This person is so petty! He thinks everything she does is an attempt to seduce him, and he gets angry easily when things don't go his way.

After finishing lunch, Jiang Mingzhu walked out of the meeting room and bumped into a colleague from the secretary's office named Zhang Jing.

She looks like she's been standing here for a long time.

Jiang Mingzhu: "Zhang Zhu, do you need the conference room"

Zhang Jing: "Something fell inside."

Ginger Mingzhu: "Oh, then you go find it."

Zhang Jing bypassed Jiang Mingzhu and entered the meeting room. She peered out from the door crack, watching Jiang Mingzhu's back disappear before she took out her phone.

"Mr. Zhan."rection of the cafeteria. After parting ways, Zhan Yubai and Zhou Li watched as he took the elevator down and returned to the ward.When Zhan Danyun and Liu Tao saw her return alone, they asked, "What'...
