Chapter 20: Stay with me for a few days

ngzhu: "Don't roll away, I finally caught my brother. I don't want to let go."Zhou Li glanced at her stomach, remembering how she had lied to Zhan Yanqing, saying she was menstruating, and maliciously...Jiang Mingzhu returned to her workstation and, remembering Zhou Li's expression when she left—like he had eaten a fly—couldn't help but smile.

Men are so interesting. They clearly say they don't want something, but their bodies tell a different story, yet they always use this phrase to describe women.

When coming to Wanhua these two weeks, Ginger Mingzhu often heard employees say that Zhou Li was an ascetic and an iceberg man.

Jiang Mingzhu sneered. She put on a cold face, but the moment she touched him, he wasn't dissatisfied at all, was he

Just now she blew a few breaths into his ear, and he was done for.

His mouth said he wasn't interested, but his body told a different story. A little touch, and it was like a volcano eruption.

In a few minutes, Jiang Mingzhu received a WeChat message from Zhan Yanqing: [I'm on a business trip for two days, I've had someone deliver the dress to your house.]

Jiang Mingzhu withdrew her smile, {How did you suddenly go on a business trip}

Jane Chiang:【There's a temporary issue with the hotel project in Jiangcheng. I'll be back soon.】

Ginger Mingzhu chuckled. There was an unexpected turn of events, and it was clearly the work of Zhou Li and Zhan Yu Bai. She knew this in her heart, but there was no need to say it out loud. Zhan Yanqing would definitely want to know as well.

Jane Chien: {“It should be my sister who wants to transfer me, but don't worry, I will definitely take you to the banquet on Saturday.”}

It seems her tactic from last night is already showing results.

Before getting close to Zhan Yanqing, Jiang Mingzhu had already figured out his personality very well. Every word and every action was carefully designed.

Jan Yanqing is not stupid, he just got used to being successful in love and having women around him, which made him a little blindly confident.

And Ginger Mingzhu hadn't really plotted against him, either. Now that he was at the top of his power, he wouldn't suspect anything from her.

After dealing with Jian Yanqing's WeChat, Jiang Mingzhu's phone rang again.

Seeing the caller ID, Jiang Mingzhu got up and went to the restroom. Making sure no one was around, she then answered the call.

Through the receiver, a mature and low male voice came, "Why are you taking so long to answer Are you busy"

Ginger Mingzhu: "I was in the office just now, it wasn't convenient."

The man asked her, "Are you still with Jan Yu-bai"

"No, she arranged for me to be with Zhou Li. They should have checked me out already."

"Is that Zhuzhu I want to talk to Zhuzhu!" A milky voice suddenly replaced the sound.

Ginger Mingzhu was amused by the voice, her brows and eyes softening. "You're fighting with your dad for the phone again."

"I miss you, when are you coming back" the little girl said pitifully, "If you don't come back, daddy won't take me for bubble tea."

The little one chirped and chattered, pestering Jiang Mingzhu with many words. Jiang Mingzhu wasn't angry, she soothed her for a long time.

Finally, the little kid gave the phone back to the man.

Ginger Mingzhu, hearing him tell the nanny to take the children away, teased him, "Sisi has a lot of opinions about you."

"I'll be arriving in Beicheng early Friday morning," the man said. "Come pick me up, and stay with me for a few days."

Jiang Mingzhu was surprised, "Why did you suddenly come over"

"You've been there for so long, I should go take a look, shouldn't I" he said. "I'll send you my flight number on WeChat in a while."

Back in the office, Jiang Mingzhu received her flight information. Arriving at 6 am on Friday morning, it was truly an infernal time.

To pick him up, and to accompany him for a day, that definitely means taking a day off.

During her lunch break, Jiang Mingzhu slipped a leave application to Liang Cong, her immediate superior and Zhou Li's right-hand man.

After Ginger Mingzhu submitted her leave request form and Liang Cong signed it, she thought everything was settled. However, he said to her, "You just need to take it to Zhou總 for his signature."

"It's really unbelievable that Jiang Mingzhu said, 'All the employees in Wanghua need to have their leave requests personally approved by General Manager Zhou He'll be swamped with work!' "

"Ordinary employees don't need it, but we are the secretary office, directly under Mr. Zhou's management."

Ginger Mingzhu: …

I just made Zhou Li angry, and she's going to ask for leave now. That dog won't approve.

Jiang Mingzhu pondered for a moment and decided to go deliver the leave slip again tomorrow.

The next morning, Jiang Mingzhu brought Zhou Li coffee as usual.

Zhou Li was in the same cold state as always, her indifferent gaze swept over her, as if looking at a stranger.

Not until Jiang Mingzhu handed him the leave application did he react, "You're going to take leave"

Ginger Mingzhu: "Yes."

Zhou Li stared intently at her leave slip. The reason given was a hospital checkup.

A general checkup usually only takes half a day, but Jiang Mingzhu took the whole day off, which is unreasonable.

Without asking any further questions, Zhou Li picked up a pen and signed the document.

And Ginger Mingzhu behaved very prudently today as well. After taking the leave slip, she left without harassing him like she usually does.

He actually had a feeling of being out of sorts.

Zhou Li rubbed his forehead, worried that he'd been haunted by this woman's harassment.

Soon after Jiang Mingzhu left, Zhou Li received a call from Xu Sichen, "Fourth Brother, Zheng Linshu has made a move."

Zhou Li asked, "What's wrong"

Xu Sichen: "I found out his schedule, he's coming to Beicheng."

Zhou Li's eyelids jumped a few times, "When"

"It's this Friday."

Zhou Li's eyes suddenly sharpened—Ginger Mingzhu had requested Friday off.rations. I'll find someone experienced to help you.""You're not willing to transfer Jiang Mingzhu to me," Zhou Li pierced through Zhan Yubai.Jan Yu Bai said half-truthfully, "I'm afraid you scared her...
