The atmosphere was a little heavy, Zhou Jin chuckled on the other end of the phone, clearly trying to console her, "Jing Zhi, this matter, from the beginning to the end, is something that I am willing to do, it has nothing to do with you."

His consolation did not help Li Jingzhi relax.

"Will you come the day after tomorrow?" Zhou Jin tried asking again.

Li Jingzhi had escaped once again with Li Yi. If she were to leave now, she would definitely be discovered by him.

Therefore, she was somewhat hesitant and conflicted. Her hand tightly gripped her mobile phone and did not reply for a long time.

Zhou Jin knew that she had left Si Luoming, but he didn't know the current situation she and Si Luoming were in.

He thought she didn't want to face him.

Although he was a bit disappointed, he didn't want to force her, "It doesn't matter. If you don't want to come, then forget it."

"Zhou Jin, let's meet on the night of your birthday, I'll send you the address."

His tone slowly recovered from his previous disappointment. "Alright, I'll come and find you the day after tomorrow."

Li Jingzhi couldn't do anything more for Zhou Jin on his birthday. She only made a birthday cake for him at the cake shop on the day of his birthday.

After passing the market, she bought some simple dishes.

At night, Zhou Jin arrived on time.

It did not advance, nor did it delay. It just happened to be stuck at that point.

What he didn't know was that there was a black Rolls-Royce following behind him.

As Zhou Jin walked in the alley, he couldn't help but frown.

He had met with Li Jingzhi a week ago. Originally, the card was handed to her, but was rejected by her with a strong attitude.

Knowing her personality, he didn't want her to feel sorry for him.

Thus, he kept the card.

However, she never expected to live in such a place. Every corner was filled with a dark and rotten smell.

It was hard for him to imagine how that girl, who had lived in luxury since she was young, had managed to live here.

Standing in front of the room's number that she gave him, Zhou Jin secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and allowed himself to clean up the messy emotions.

The moment he raised his hand, the door was opened from the inside. Looking at the stunned expression in the person's eyes, he smiled.

Li Jingzhi was still holding onto the garbage bag, her face flushed red, she immediately placed it at the door and greeted Zhou Jin.

Li Yi stared at the cake on the table, and heard Zhou Jin's voice jump into his embrace, "Uncle Zhou!"

Zhou Jin immediately carried him, "This little thing has grown taller again."

Li Jingzhi opened the door, allowing the smell of oil smoke from the kitchen to permeate through.

"Take a seat first. The food will be ready in a moment."

"Is there anything I can do for you?"

Li Jingzhi washed her hands, held the spatula and smiled at him, "I do, help me look after that little thing."

Such words flashed by in a flash of familiarity.

Li Jingzhi immediately shook her head and returned to the kitchen to concentrate on cooking.

Zhou Jin looked around the house. The interior of the house was clean and tidy. Other than the kitchen, there was a small room with a wooden bed placed inside.

Standing in the living room made people feel suffocated. Zhou Jin frowned, he felt sorry for her.

Li Jingzhi's cooking skills were not ordinary, she had only made a few simple dishes, and the taste was not worse than the restaurants outside.

She was a little embarrassed. "I'm really sorry. Originally, I should have invited you for a meal on your birthday, but now …"

"You know, I don't care." Zhou Jin smiled gently to ease her awkward mood.

The three of them ate in the small room, blew candles, and made wishes.

Zhou Jin felt that it was very strange, and in this small room, he felt extremely warm.

For a moment, he even felt like he already had a family.

However, the more precious a scene was, the more people disliked seeing such a harmonious scene.

Si Yun stood at the bottom of the building, raising her head to look at Li Zhiqiang's floor, her eyes filled with hidden bitterness and scheming.

She leisurely took out her cell phone and made a call. With a displeased frown, she said, "Yeah, I have information to report."

Zhou Jin did not know that Li Jingzhi had made the cake herself, so she did not mention it.

But this was her first time doing it, so it wasn't too good.

Zhou Jin ate half of it,

After finishing her cake, Li Jingzhi asked him about his plans for the future and the date of her departure.

"I will leave here the day after tomorrow." After he finished speaking, he looked at Li Jingzhi's expression.

If it wasn't for him, Zhou Jin would never have reached this step.

She lowered her head, trying to think of a way to speak.

Seeing that she was silent, he continued, "Jingjing, didn't you always want to leave this place to live abroad? We can leave together and I'll try to give you the life you want. "

These words were already the confession of a naked fruit. No matter how slow Li Jingzhi was, he couldn't have not reacted in time.

She knew what he had done for her. She had always tried to make up for this feeling of being unable to respond in any other way.

Zhou Jin was the only friend that she trusted in this city.

Li Jingzhi had been trying her best to maintain this friendship.

However, he couldn't avoid it now.

Her flabbergasted gaze fell into Zhou Jin's eyes. Although he looked normal on the surface, his heart had already leaped into his throat.

He was waiting for her answer.

When the situation was a bit tense, a commotion came from outside the door.

Before the two of them could react, the person carrying the camera and the person holding the microphone had already surrounded the small room to the point that not even a drop of water could trickle out.

While Li Jingzhi was still stunned, Zhou Jin hurriedly moved her behind him.

The reporter had originally only come for Li Jingzhi, but seeing Zhou Jin here was equivalent to another piece of big news.

Moreover, ever since the incident at Si Luoming's wedding, they could not find any trace of Zhou Jin.

Now that they met here, if the two had any other connections, it would be big news.

Everyone seemed to have smelled their prey and was closing in on them.

"Miss Li, did you and Mr. Si suddenly end the wedding because of the interference of someone else?"

"Miss Li, what is your relationship with Mr. Zhou Jin?"

"It is said that you and Mr. Si already have a child. Are these rumors true?"

These reporters questioned her aggressively one after another, as if they were throwing grenades towards her.

Li Jingzhi rarely dealt with these kinds of situations, so she was a little worried. At the same time, she was worried that if the media exposed her today, she would cause unnecessary trouble.

"You are trespassing, so we can sue you."

Zhou Jin threatened with a gloomy face.

None of these reporters were easy to deal with. Even though they heard him say this, they were not afraid. Instead, they held the microphone in their hands closer.
