Was Aquaman’s ex-husband cremated today?

Chapter 222 It was grandma who forced us to separate, not me

Zhou Yongan was indeed waiting for her in the car when he saw her driving in another direction.

It’s not in the direction of Jiyue Mansion.

He followed her all the way to Lakeside Garden, and saw her and Jiang Lei getting on the elevator. He was worried, so he walked to the elevator room and confirmed the floor where the elevator finally stopped.

He returned to the car and Lao Qian told him that the lights in the room on the eleventh floor had just been turned on.

Zhou Yongan sat in the car and waited for five minutes, thinking about Jiang Lei's character. He was still worried about her staying upstairs. His number was blocked by her, so he could only borrow Lao Qian's phone to make the call.

But no one answered the phone.

Without thinking twice, he went to the eleventh floor and confirmed Jiang Lei's room based on the direction and Lao Qian's words.

He kept ringing the doorbell. The moment he heard the cry for help, no one knew how anxious and angry he was. Zhou Yongan decided at that moment that no matter whether it was a play or a real story today, he would cut Jiang Lei into pieces!

Zhou Yongan's thoughts drifted back to reality, and a hint of anger appeared on his face: "I came to you just to see how you were doing without me. How could you put yourself in danger?"

Li Qingwen bit her lip. She had been living a good life before today. No matter when Zhou Yongan showed up, she could tell him that she was living a good life without him.

Why, had he to see my most embarrassing side, when I needed him the most?

"I'm doing fine, Chow Yun-an, I'm doing fine."

Before he could finish his words, tears were already streaming down his face. Li Qingwen suppressed his tears and tried not to cry out loud.

How could Zhou Yongan not recognize the trembling voice? He turned her around to face him.

With eyes full of heartache, he held Li Qingwen's face in his hands and wiped her tears over and over again.

Li Qingwen couldn't stop sobbing like a child. The more he held his breath, the more he couldn't breathe. Finally, Zhou Yongan pulled him into his arms and held him tightly.

"I'm back, it's okay." He patted her hand gently on the back.

"I will be here from now on. I'm here," Zhou Yongan said.

The long-lost embrace, the gentle tone, the familiar smell, are like opium, intoxicating and addictive.

Li Qingwen indulged in it briefly until her sobbing stopped and the whole world became quiet. Zhou Yongan's clothes absorbed her tears and she slowly calmed down.

"If everything is alright, can you please leave?"

Zhou Yongan said: "I want to hear about your life during this period."

"I'm not in the mood right now, and I don't want to talk to you."

"Okay, if you don't want to talk about it, then I'll tell you about my time in America."

Li Qingwen looked at him and said, "Thank you very much for saving me today, but I'm not interested in knowing your life. I told you not to say hello when we meet again. Did you forget?"

Zhou Yongan heard her cold words unexpectedly, and his blood froze instantly.

His hand left Li Qingwen's arm and hung at his side. He watched her turn around without giving him any chance. Her cold attitude was the same as it had been a few years ago.

"You know very well that it was grandma who forced us to separate, not me."

After he said this, without waiting for Li Qingwen to speak, he walked to the sofa, took the phone, and left Jiyue Mansion.

The moment the door closed again, Li Qingwen's heart trembled.

She stood in the empty house and warned herself not to be sad.

Don't be reluctant.

Don't covet what's not yours.

Ke Xin still felt very painful. No matter what, she was able to escape today only because of Zhou Yongan, otherwise she would not be able to stand here intact. Her attitude just now was really bad, and Zhou Yongan's face turned black.

He has done so much today and might even be punished for excessive self-defense.

She didn't even let him drink a sip of water before she sent him away.

Why did he throw all the social etiquette he had learned after drinking so much and getting drunk so many times out of his mind when facing Zhou Yongan?

Why treat him differently?

The more this happened, the more she missed him...

Li Qingwen squatted down.

……

No one in the company knew where Jiang Lei was doing. They only knew that he was absent from work. After his colleagues called his cell phone but no one answered, the Human Resources Department reported the situation to Zhou Xixiang.

Li Qingwen had called Zhou Xixiang last night and told him about how Zhou Yongan beat Jiang Lei and crippled his penis. He also mentioned the mastermind behind the incident with his cousin and hoped that Zhou Xixiang would authorize an investigation.

When the Human Resources Department reported Jiang Lei's disappearance to Zhou Xixiang, Zhou Xixiang directly handed Yao Qian a dismissal statement and asked her to select a new head of the inspection team as soon as possible.

Yao Qian didn't react at all: "Boss Zhou, then...is the new team leader promoted from the branch or the head office?"

Zhou Xixiang glanced at her and said, "As long as they are suitable candidates, you can arrange them."

Yao Qian is used to following orders and it is difficult for her to make decisions on everything. She is not yet able to fully grasp the great power in her hands.

"Yes, I understand, Mr. Zhou."

After the dismissal news was released, the whole floor was buzzing with discussions. On one hand, people felt that Jiang Lei's departure was a great relief, but on the other hand, they were gossiping about what mistake such a cautious person had made to suddenly disappear overnight.

Old Wu didn't know where he heard the rumor from. He sipped his coffee and said, "It is said that Minister Jiang is in charge of supervision. He appears to be honest and upright, but he actually embezzled a lot of money privately and bought a three-bedroom, one-living-room house in Cuishan with full payment."

Old Xu Ye had heard something: "They are moving to a new house tomorrow. He told me verbally, do you think I should go now or not?"

"You said you can't even get through on the phone. Try calling before you go. If you can't get through, forget it."

Old Xu felt that this was the truth and that etiquette should still be maintained, after all, he had also attended his daughter's wedding last time.

"Qingwen, are you going?" Old Xu didn't know the whole story yet. He raised his eyes to look at the person who had been sitting behind the desk typing on the computer.

Li Qingwen said, "I have other plans."

I originally declined Jiang Lei's request because I didn't want to go, but now I really have something to do.

She didn't know how Zhou Yongan solved the problem or whether he called the police. She sat in the office all day, worried that the police would come to question her as the victim, but they didn't.

Her phone kept ringing, but they were all calls from clients. She received no calls from the police and no scam calls.

Even though such a big thing happened, there was no news at all and everything was calm. Li Qingwen felt very strange.

It was not until two days later when she ran into Kevin outside and he apologized to her on behalf of his cousin that Li Qingwen learned that the Zhou family had given a generous sum of money to Jiang Lei's parents to settle the matter.

So, Zhou Yongan did not call the police.

"What your ex-husband did was really cruel. Even though it's understandable, my dad can't accept it." It's said that uncles love their nephews. Liang Chaosheng also loves Jiang Lei. He was very unhappy to see his nephew end up like this.
