Chapter 45: Marriage

ll leave the parents to you then. Talk to you later. I'm having dinner with my little pearl."Putting down her phone, Zhan Yanqing raised an eyebrow at Jiang Mingzhu and asked, “Guess what she told me”...Not only was Zhan Yanqing's transformation abrupt, but Jiang Mingzhu's was as well.

Before he had coerced and threatened her into setting boundaries with Jen Yen-ching, she never wavered. A few days ago, they even confronted each other about this issue, but then suddenly he just said he gave up.

After that, Chien-ching Jan began to interfere with the company's affairs and took drastic measures against Jan Yu-bai.

After much thought, Zhou Li asked Zhan Yu Bai, "Did you know Jiang Mingzhu before"

Jean spoke, startled, “ … um”

She didn't react, wondering why Zhou Li suddenly asked her that.

"Don't you recognize"

"I don't know her. I've never met her."

Zhou Li: “Hmm.”

I don't know her, never met her. But based on what I see of Ginger Pearl, she doesn't seem like that kind of person.

Before Zhou Li, he suspected she was targeting Fenghe or the Zhan family, but she didn't really do anything to Fenghe. She even let Zhan Yanqing return to the company to take responsibility.

But she did indeed use extremely clever means to create a rift between Zhan Yanqing and Zhan Yubai.

First, she bewildered and captivated Zhan Yanqing, making him completely devoted to her. Afterward, she played the role of a heartbroken woman, feigning that her family forced them to break up.

In this way, she had just the reason to let Zhan Yanqing go back and "seize power" from Zhan Yubai.

Zhan Yanqing was bewitched by Jiang Mingzhu, believing everything she said. His years of brother-sister relationship with Zhan Yubai were reduced to nothing because of this woman.

Ginger Mingzhu instigated Zhan Yanqing to take over Fenghe. This way, she could exploit Zhan Yanqing's incompetence to ruin Fenghe and help Zheng Linshu win the energy project. At the same time, it would create conflict between Zhan Yanqing and Zhan Yubai, killing two birds with one stone.

But unlike the former, intuition tells Zhou Li that Jiang Mingzhu's main purpose is to incite conflict between Zhan Yanqing and Zhan Yubai.

Jane Yu Bai is the adopted daughter of the Zhan family. Zhan Dan Yun, that old fox, never even thought about handing over the company to her.

These years, she has simply been using her abilities to make wedding clothes for Jian Yanqing.

Now that Zhan Yanqing has suddenly returned, Zhan Yubai must be feeling very uncomfortable. If he acts impulsively, Zhan Danyun will definitely unconditionally stand by his biological son.

Perhaps, Jian Yubai will be ostracized by the Jian family from now on.

——

Zhou's old house was bustling with activity. As soon as Zhou Li and Zhan Yu Bai arrived, his twin nephews came bouncing over.

"Fourth Uncle! I want to kill you!"

Zhou Li patted the heads of the two children and looked at Zhou Ren who was following behind them, "Big brother."

Zhou Ren is Zhou Li's cousin, the eldest in their generation. The Zhou family has never divided their property, so their house is large. After getting married, Zhou Ren has always lived there.

"He's back, Grandpa keeps talking about you." Zhou Ren looked at Zhan Yubai, "Yubai is here too."

Jane's voice was soft. "Brother,"

Zhou Li brought his wife Bai to the old house. Mr. Zhou was playing chess with the housekeeper, and his father, Zhou Zhang, was peeling mangosteens for his mother, Jin Rou.

Jin Rou saw Zhan Yu Bai and immediately smiled, waving to her enthusiastically, even more so than she would greet her own son. "Yu Bai is here! Come sit."

Jane spoke softly, and White obediently went to sit beside Jin Rou. Zhou Zhang returned his gaze to Zhou Li, "You're back."

Zhou Li and Zhou Zhang sat on another sofa.

Jin Rou pulled Zhan Yu Bai closer, asking with concern, "Have you been busy at work lately You need to take care of yourself and not do everything yourself."

Jane said, "Not busy, recently Yanqing returned to the company, my pressure is much less."

Jin Rou: “Yan Qing finally sees things clearly By the way, about that thing from a while back, did your father get discharged”

Jane said, "Well, it's better now."

Jin Rou: "Did Yanqing break up with that woman too"

Jian Yu Bai's expression was a bit complicated, she didn't know what she was thinking about. Jin Rou patted her arm, "You still have to work hard. When Yan Qing makes trouble, you always have to clean up the mess."

Jian Yu Bai: "Yan Qing is my brother, it's what I should do."

Jin Rou went to remind Zhou Li: "Xiao Si, Yu Bai has been working so hard, how come you, her fiance, don't even care"

Remember the teachings well.

Jin Rou: "Your cold and frosty temperament, only Yu Bai can tolerate you!"

Jan Yu Bai interpreted kindness and understanding to the extreme: "Mother, Zhou Li is very kind to me. He just does a lot and says little."

Jin Rou: "Look at this, so loving! I can't even say a few words!"

This is a line break. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The Zhou family atmosphere was very good. After Zhou Li was "disciplined" by Jin Rou, he went to chat with Zhou Zhang about some company matters.

Though they didn't talk much, the father and son had always gotten along well.

Later, Zhou Li accompanied the old man for a few rounds of chess and then it was time for dinner.

All the members of the Zhou family's old house ate dinner together. Tonight, there were dozens of people at the table, making it particularly lively.

Zhou Li hasn't been back for a long time, and the topic revolves almost entirely around him and Jane White.

Zhou Ren's two young children like to cling to Zhou Li. During mealtimes, Zhou Li kept serving the two with dishes.

Zhou Ren's wife, Mingyue, smiled and said, "It seems that the fourth one will be a good father in the future."

As soon as these words left his mouth, someone immediately followed up and asked, "Old Four, when are you and Yu Bai going to have a child You've been together for three years now, it's time to enter a new stage, right"

Jane's breath caught in her throat as she stared at Zhou Li. He remained calm and composed, saying nonchalantly, "No rush."

Zhan Yu Bai's hand under the table clenched into a fist, but her face was still wearing a gentle smile as she followed behind and said, "Yes, there's no rush. Zhou Li and I are both very busy with work right now. We'll talk about it when our careers settle down. We're young after all."

Jin Rou glanced at Zhan Yu Bai, then casually changed the subject, effectively steering the conversation in a different direction.

Some things are not good to discuss when there are a lot of people.

After dinner, Jin Rou called Zhan Yu Bai up to the small balcony on the top floor.

She took Jian Yubai's hand and said, "I'm sorry you were wronged just now."

"It's okay, I already talked to Zhou Li about it."

"Jin Rou: 'He's a man of few passions, Aunt. All these years of your efforts for him, I see it all. Rest assured, about the wedding, I will certainly urge him to get it done as soon as possible.'"

Jian Yu Bai pursed her lips, her eyes reddened with emotion at Jin Rou's words.

Jin Rou gently patted Zhan Yu Bai's shoulder, "Cry if you want to cry, I feel sorry for you."

"No regrets." She said softly, "With your words, everything I've done is worthwhile."

At parting in the evening, Jin Rou took Zhou Li aside alone.

Zhou Li: "Mom, what do you want to say"

Jin Rou: "You're so smart, you wouldn't guess"

"Please be explicit."

Jin Rou: "How come Yan Qing suddenly came to his senses and wants to go back to the company"

"I don't know."

Jin Rou: "Yǔbai, these years she has done so much for Fenghe. Yanqing suddenly went back to replace her position, she must be feeling very uncomfortable inside. You should spend more time with her recently."

Understood.

"Also, I think you and Yǔbai should get married as soon as possible so she has a sense of belonging."

Zhou Li was silent.

"You still don't like Yu Bai"

Zhouli continued to be silent.

"Jin Rou: "My life was saved by Yu Bai. She risked her own life to give me a kidney. To put it simply, it's all because she loves you. You'll never meet another woman who loves you as much as she does in your lifetime."

Zhou Li made a promise to Jin Rou, "I understand. Don't worry, I will consider getting married."unreadable light.Why did Zheng Linshu suddenly change his mind... and for what reasonWhat is the current attitude of Zhānbōfù's sideJane White said, "He is very happy. In the future, all of the compan...
