Chapter 119: Lend Your Good News

As soon as Jiang Xilin left Chen Congyu's residence, Duan Ke called him.

Her voice was tired, and she asked Jiang Xilin caringly, "My mother's surgery just ended. Why don't you not come over? She's fine now. It will be very late if you come and go again. I'm afraid to disturb your rest."

Jiang Xilin stood in the empty elevator, watching the floors descend one by one. Without giving it much thought, he said, "It's okay. I'll go over now. It's not far away."

"Okay, thank you for your help. I'll wait for you here. Be careful on the road."

"Um."

Jiang Xilin put away his phone, straightened his coat, and thought of Chen Congyu upstairs. He must have put a lot of effort into this dinner tonight.

She seemed to be doing so well on the surface, but if he hadn't had to leave at the last minute, she would probably have been reluctant to continue.

No matter how her personality changes, her basic character is still there.

Even if you are unwilling to act, you will not be willing to act.

Jiang Xilin walked out of the elevator with new considerations in his mind.

…

The surgery that Duan's mother underwent was not serious, so she still had to stay in the hospital for a long time.

Jiang Xilin went to visit her temporarily in the evening and went again the next day, bringing some skin care products and fruits. Duan Ke was there and chatted with Duan's mother in the ward. Jiang Xilin had something else to do.

Duan Ke went out to see him off, then remembered and said, "I heard from Hu Zi that Miss Shen rejected her."

"What's wrong?"

Duan Ke shook his head. "Nothing serious. I just saw that they seemed to get along pretty well before, and everything was normal when they met last time. I didn't expect that they would suddenly clarify things so soon."

The two of them stood in front of the elevator waiting. Jiang Xilin's figure stood out, and people looked at them from time to time.

Jiang Xilin looked indifferent and didn't seem to be interested in the topic that Duan Ke was talking about.

"This is their business. You don't know everything. Any result is normal."

Duan Ke looked at him and said, "That's right. Then let's ask Miss Shen what she likes later."

Jiang Xilin didn't say anything.

The elevator arrived and he walked straight in. Duan Ke stopped outside. He simply nodded to her and left.

The elevator door closed in front of him, and Duan Ke's expression became serious. Unfortunately, he had no clue for the time being, so he had to go back to the ward with a heavy heart.

…

In the evening, Chen Congyu had a dinner appointment with Wen Song. Wen Song had recently moved to the house prepared for her by the Meng family and discussed the engagement with the Meng family. However, Meng Xianyi, the other protagonist, almost slept in the hospital and had no time to take care of his marriage with Wen Song.

Seeing her listless state, Chen Congyu didn't want to see her become like this because of these things, so she said with a complaining tone: "If Doctor Meng is really so busy, why don't you get engaged? I can't let you arrange it alone. Do you have to do it alone when you want to get married?"

"So I thought, does Duan Zhen have any tricks up her sleeve? She could just steal Meng Xianyi away. That way, if our marriage falls through, I can't be blamed."

Chen Congyu couldn't be sure that Duan Zhen had any tricks. "You can't even handle Dr. Meng, let alone her."

"Never mind. Since he's so busy, he can forget about what I do in the future."

Wen Song really didn't want to talk about the engagement anymore, but suddenly remembered something. "Oh, by the way, I heard from my friend over there that Chen Yao was set up a while ago and lost a lot of money from his family's company, probably nine figures at the very least. His grandfather was almost mad to death, and now his father has expressly forbidden him from joining the company again and wants him to find other business to fill the gap."

Mentioning Chen Yao's misfortune, Wen Song's mood suddenly brightened, with a look of gloating written all over his face. He said, "I really don't know which kind person screwed him over. If we knew, we'd both go to their house and thank them."

Chen Congyu had almost the same mentality. She was eager to try, "In that case, he probably won't have time to come to Haicheng for a long time, right?"

"With his abilities, he can only rely on his parents to provide for his family and live comfortably. I don't think he has the ability to start a big business. And now he's been cheated out of money. It's hard for him to turn things around in the Chen family. He should rack his brains to think of a way to make up for his losses."

Judging from the current situation, it is indeed the same as Wen Song's analysis, unless Chen Yao is really lucky and meets some noble person who helps him.

But Chen Congyu thought that the possibility was very small.

She clinked glasses with Wen Song and took a sip of fruit wine, her goal clear. "I want to see if there's anyone over there who can help, and then add fuel to the fire."

"I fully support you."

This matter still needs to be done slowly later. Wen Song was happy for Chen Congyu from the bottom of his heart and even wanted to add some effort.

"Here, it's perfectly normal for you to reject that Hu Zi. He can't help you in any way, and he's acquainted with Jiang Xilin, so he'll probably only cause you trouble."

This is what Chen Congyu thought, so in order to calm Jiang Xilin down, she rejected Hu Zi without a second thought.

He has realized his value.

Wen Songmingyan's eyes showed a mischievous cunning, and she said to Shen Congyu: "You need to find someone who can check and balance Jiang Xilin."

It's not that Chen Congyu hasn't thought about it, but the problem is that before she left Haicheng, the Shen family was at most a wealthy family. Beyond that, they couldn't even be considered a powerful or influential family.

Besides, he wasn't very rich, and couldn't be compared to the people she was around now.

So she had never met any powerful person before who could help her develop and compete with Jiang Xilin.

"Take your time. Let's not talk about where I can find her. Even if I know her, she's not a fool. She won't go against Jiang Xilin for me." Chen Congyu saw through it. "And even if I want to cultivate feelings with her, it will take time. If Jiang Xilin finds out, the situation will be even worse."

"Oh, that's what I said. Don't overthink it. You have to find someone powerful to punish Jiang Xilin in order to have a chance. Otherwise, if you keep treating Jiang Xilin like this, when will he agree to end it?"

I won’t talk about Wen Song later, Chen Congyu also understands it.

After all, Jiang Xilin didn't act on impulse. There were historical issues between them. Waiting for him to be merciful was completely passive.

Chen Congyu seemed to be thinking about something.

Wen Song encouraged her, "Come on, if we can get rid of Chen Yao, we can get rid of Jiang Xilin. We will never be bullied by men again. Let all bad men get away!"

Before Shen Congyu could echo her lofty ambitions, she leaned in closer and added in a low voice: "It's okay if the bad men don't leave. We will try our best to make the bad men serve us as dogs."

Chen Congyu was slightly startled, then burst out laughing, "I'll lend you my good words."

…

With the Qingming Festival holiday approaching, Chen Congyu is busy again. She finally managed to get a ticket to a celebrity meet-and-greet event, and Xue Mingrui liked it, so she took the time to send it to her.

Xue Mingrui was so happy that he almost hugged Chen Congyu and kissed her twice, and quietly pulled her aside to talk.

"Sister Cong Yu, I have some news for you. I heard that Sister Duan Ke's family wants her to get engaged to Brother Jiang."
