private marriage

When the awards ceremony ended, it was already very late, and everyone was waiting hungry.

Jiang Xiuzhi asked people to serve the food first, and waited while eating.

But until everyone had almost eaten, Chu Xu still didn't show up.

Sister Tang stood up and smoothed things over, "I still have work tomorrow, so go back and rest early."

The assistant and other employees didn't ask much, "Thank you, Sister Tang, and thank you, Young Master Jiang."

Sister Tang asked Jiang Xiuzhi, "Maybe Chu Xu has gone back, or..."

"She said she came here to find me."

"Maybe she just didn't feel hungry and tired, so she just went home?"

Jiang Xiuzhi couldn't listen to these words, so Sister Tang had no choice but to leave first.

In the other box, Chu Xu barely moved her chopsticks, she just sat on the side and watched Zeng Pengze eat.

Zeng Pengze put the vegetables he picked up into her bowl, "You used to love this roasted eggplant."

"Are you coming back this time to take revenge on those people?"

"You mean Jiang Xiuzhi?"

Chu Xu looked at him strangely but familiarly. Zeng Pengze raised his wine glass and touched it with the one in her hand.

"I came back only because of you."

"I?"

"I want you to have a better life." Zeng Pengze smiled and drank the wine in the glass, "Do you believe it?"

"You don't talk about your past few years because it's really hard, I know."

Zeng Pengze shook the goblet in his hand, "No matter what, it's over."

Even though he loves her so much, when he was in a trance from pain, he could only survive by thinking about Chu Xu, but when Zeng Pengze faced her, he couldn't open his mouth at all.

He couldn't say what he wanted to start over with her.

"It's too late, I'll take you back."

"No, I can take a taxi by myself."

"Afraid of being seen by Jiang Xiuzhi?"

Chu Xu clinked glasses with him, "There's nothing to be afraid of."

Chu Xu finished drinking, "I'm so happy to see that you're fine and alive. Peng Ze, even if you want to seek justice, you must not break the law, okay? Don't fight evil with evil."

"Okay." Zeng Pengze agreed immediately.

Naturally, he was worried that she would go back alone, so he sent her back to Yuejing Water Bay.

Chu Xu opened the door and went in. There was no one in the room. She saw that it was almost morning. Jiang Xiuzhi didn't come back yet, did he?
She opened the bedroom door and went in, but no one was inside.

Chu Xu walked to the landline and called Jiang Xiuzhi.

The other end answered quickly, "Hello."

"Where are you?"

"Where do you think I should be?"

"Is the restaurant still open? They won't drive you away?"

Jiang Xiuzhi got up from the sofa. He had been waiting for a long time, exhausted and suffering from back pain. "Did you say that you wanted to come over?"

"I didn't have my mobile phone with me, and I suddenly forgot the name of the hotel, so I had to go home."

Jiang Xiuzhi lost his temper, like an old cow. "I'll be right here waiting for you."

"Then it's fine if you don't come back, just sleep there."

"Hey--"

Jiang Xiuzhi yelled at the other end of the phone several times, but Chu Xu had already hung up.

The car quickly drove into Yuejing Water Bay, but before entering the gate, it was stopped by the sound of a horn.

Jiang Xiuzhi rolled down the car window and saw Zeng Pengze sitting in the opposite car.

The rival in love was extremely jealous when they met, Jiang Xiuzhi was angry, but he suppressed it, with a strange yin and yang, "Mr. Zeng doesn't sleep most of the night, do you like to watch the excitement downstairs in other people's houses?"

Zeng Pengze was calm, even with a hint of a smile on his lips.

"I'm worried that Xuxu will come back alone, I'll see her off."

"..."

The corners of Jiang Xiuzhi's eyes were twitching. If Zeng Pengze could bear it, at least in his eyes, it was Jiang Xiuzhi who caused him to lose a leg.

Facing such an enemy, if it was Jiang Xiuzhi, he would definitely be unable to restrain himself from amputating his legs.

"If you really have the heart, give me a call, my own woman, I will answer it myself."

Zeng Pengze still smiled slightly, "Xuxu didn't tell you to pick it up, and I don't know Young Master Jiang's number."

"Everyone has been delivered, why don't you leave?"

Is this intentionally staying here to wait for him, to make things difficult for him?
Zeng Pengze's tone was slow, as if he had changed into a different person, shed the youthful frizz, and only the honed treachery remained.

"I'll stay here for a while, and I won't worry until Young Master Jiang comes back."

"That's our home, what are you worried about?"

Zeng Pengze tapped his fingers on his leg, "Jiang Shao is a little angry, I should invite you to have dinner together today. But Xu Xu thinks that it is not appropriate for us to have outsiders in the scene of reminiscing about the old days."

"You are an outsider!"

"Jiang Shao won't wait until now at the hotel, right? I should have told you earlier so that you don't have to wait. Xuxu was full when she ate with me."

Why did Jiang Xiuzhi have the urge to strangle someone's neck?

"It's getting late, Young Master Jiang, good night, see you another day." Zeng Pengze said as he raised the car window. Jiang Xiuzhi's face was indifferent and cold. He didn't kick hard at the car in front until the opposite car drove away. seat.

Back at Yuejing Water Bay, Jiang Xiuzhi entered the room and saw Chu Xu sitting on the bay window, staring downstairs.

He stepped forward quickly and pulled the window screen over to block her view.

"Don't look at it."

Chu Xu didn't speak, and pushed the window screen away again.

Jiang Xiuzhi picked her up and walked a few steps to the bed, and threw her on the bed, "Have dinner with him for a few hours, shouldn't that be enough?"

"what do you mean?"

"Everyone is gone, you still want to watch him reluctantly, don't you?"

Chu Xu drank some wine, her mind was a little dizzy, and she tapped her forehead lightly with her hand. "I'm looking at the scenery downstairs."

"What's the scenery in the middle of the night?"

"You mean Peng Ze just left?"

Jiang Xiuzhi almost covered his heart, "Peng Ze?"

"All right, Zeng Pengze."

"Did you think of me when you were with him?"

"Jiang Xiuzhi," Chu Xu looked at him indifferently, "I must ask him about what happened in the past few years. Only by asking clearly can I feel better."

Jiang Xiuzhi sat on the edge of the bed, "But he challenged me."

"What's the provocation?"

"Call me an outsider." He is her husband, who has a marriage certificate and slept in the same bed!
Chu Xu lifted the quilt and got in, "He will definitely not say anything good when he faces you. If someone hurts your leg, can you be calm?"

"But I said, it's not me!"

Chu Xu leaned on the bed and looked at him, "After Wenwen's incident, I also understand that many things cannot be seen with eyes alone. I will investigate with you to find out who set the fire and gave Peng Ze an explanation."

Jiang Xiuzhi leaned forward with his upper body, "For so many years, this is the first time you have encountered Zeng Pengze's matter. Those who are willing to stand by me have always beaten or scolded me before."

"Isn't that because you deserved it before?"
