CHAPTER 229: CHAPTER 229: JIANG’S MINGZHU

"Alright, I get it." The man waved his hand, signaling that Cheng Li could leave.

Cheng Li was unwilling but couldn’t stay any longer, so she had to leave.

However, just as she walked a short distance, she saw a car coming towards her. When she looked closely, she saw it was carrying the person she was looking for.

So, a smile appeared on her face, and she walked to the middle of the road directly blocking the car.

Seeing someone blocking the car, the driver was startled and slammed on the brakes, bringing the car to a halt. Because of the sudden stop, the person sitting in the car wasn’t steady, and their head almost hit the seatback.

"What’s going on?" Jiang Mingzhu asked with a displeased expression, very unhappy with the driver’s sudden braking. Fortunately, her head wasn’t hit; otherwise, she wouldn’t let the driver off so easily.

"Miss, I’m sorry, someone was blocking the car in front." The driver was also startled; if he hadn’t seen the person just now, he would have hit them.

"Someone’s blocking the car, who is it?" Jiang Mingzhu questioned as she pushed the window open to look outside. When she saw Cheng Li standing in front of the car, her face turned unpleasant.

At this time, Cheng Li hadn’t noticed Jiang Mingzhu’s displeased expression. She saw Jiang Mingzhu poking her head out and was happily waving at her.

"Miss Jiang!" Cheng Li shouted loudly.

"Bitch!" Jiang Mingzhu cursed, and just as she was about to tell the driver to drive, Cheng Li had already walked up to her, smiling as she called out again, "Miss Jiang, it’s really you."

"Who are you?" Jiang Mingzhu glanced at Cheng Li impatiently and asked. She faced so many people every day, most of whom flattered her, so she had no impression of someone like Cheng Li.

"I’m Cheng Li, from the Cheng Family Village in Mao Town."

"Cheng Li? I don’t know you." Jiang Mingzhu frowned, unable to recall who Cheng Li was.

"Miss Jiang, how could you not know? The Jiang Family Village, do you remember Jiang Xue? I’m her good friend." Although Cheng Li hated Jiang Xue, she had no choice but to mention her name now. The last time she met Jiang Mingzhu was also because of Jiang Xue.

Last time, she was shopping in town with Jiang Xue. Jiang Xue went back first, and she ran into Jiang Mingzhu. Because Jiang Mingzhu and Jiang Xue looked a bit alike, she got a fright. She initially thought it was Jiang Xue, just in different attire.

Later, she realized it wasn’t Jiang Xue but Jiang Mingzhu instead. The reason she blocked her was to inquire about Jiang Xue.

At that time, she and Jiang Xue were still friends, still best friends. But even then, she told Jiang Mingzhu about Jiang Xue, and Jiang Mingzhu, being astute, immediately saw that she wasn’t truly treating Jiang Xue as a friend.

So, Jiang Mingzhu gave her some money, asking her to find a way to ruin Jiang Xue.

This was one of the reasons she was desperately trying to make Jiang Xue divorce. As for the other reason, she didn’t tell anyone, and that was that she actually liked Mu Qiancheng.

But it was only unrequited love, a secret crush.

Upon hearing the name ’Jiang Xue,’ Jiang Mingzhu finally remembered who Cheng Li was, so she said, "So it was you."

"Miss Jiang, do you remember me?" Cheng Li was overjoyed. As long as Jiang Mingzhu remembered who she was, it would be easy to manage.

"Is there something you need?" Jiang Mingzhu glanced at Cheng Li and asked coolly.

"Miss Jiang, there is something, I was wondering if you have the time?" Cheng Li felt somewhat inferior in front of Jiang Mingzhu. If it weren’t for dealing with Jiang Xue, she wouldn’t want to meet her either.
