Jiang Xilin harbored a secret. He had been married to Shen Congyu, and then they divorced.
He had thought that if Shen Congyu ever dared to return, he would absolutely not let her off the hoo...
Chapter 162 I Fall in Love with Another Man
For Chen Congyu, these were two different questions, so she chose to answer the first one.
"Didn't your uncle explain it to you?"
Zhou Zhou put down the cup and touched his forehead. "But I saw you came to ask me about his situation today. I thought he gave in."
Chen Congyu: "He asked me."
"So, you and my uncle really don't have that kind of relationship?"
“No,” Chen Congyu hesitated, “We are just friends now.”
Zhou Zhou nodded, and his condition improved a little. He sat up straight, his eyes brushed past the side of Shen Congyu's face, and looked behind her.
"Brother Jiang, why don't you come over and sit down?"
As soon as he called out for help, Shen Congyu's entire back became stiff.
Jiang Xilin was actually here too, so he must have heard everything she had just said to Zhou Zhou...
Especially when Zhou Zhou asked her if she was also with Zhou Yu, how did she answer?
Chen Congyu couldn't help but look at Zhou Zhou opposite him.
The expression on his face was simple.
But she couldn't help but wonder if he had asked that on purpose.
If she had answered differently, one can imagine what would have been waiting for her now.
Chen Congyu turned her head to look at Jiang Xilin behind her. His outline gradually became clear, and he sat down on the single sofa next to her.
Jiang Xilin asked Zhou Zhou: "Are you feeling better?"
"What can I do if it's not good? People don't think anything of me."
"It seems you've adjusted quickly. This is great. It saves you from worrying about your uncle when he comes back."
After he said this, Shen Congyu didn't know if it was an illusion, but he seemed to glance at her.
She pretended not to know and prepared to leave, saying to Zhou Zhou, "Since you've figured it out, I'll leave first."
"Wait a minute." Zhou Zhou stopped her, "If Sister Songsong comes back, can I still contact her like before?"
"If it's for friendship, I think it's okay."
Zhou Zhou looked a little sad, but didn't say much.
Shen Congyu took the bag and was about to leave, and Jiang Xilin stood up.
Zhou Zhou: "Brother Jiang, are you leaving so soon?"
Jiang Xilin responded.
The meaning was obvious, he wanted to be with Chen Congyu.
Seeing this, Zhou Zhou fell silent, watched the two of them leave, and poured more wine into the glass.
After leaving the private room, the corridor suddenly became much quieter. Shen Congyu asked, "Are you leaving now?"
"Is it not possible?"
How could Shen Congyu say what she really thought.
She said, "I thought you would stay here with Zhou Zhou."
Jiang Xilin didn't stop walking, "He's not that fragile yet."
His car keys were handed to Shen Congyu, who consciously took on the role of driver.
Jiang Xilin drank some wine, not much, but it actually helped him sleep. He sat in the car feeling a little tired, leaning against the backrest, his whole body exuding a lazy air.
He didn't say anything, and Shen Congyu focused on driving his car.
Later he suddenly spoke, slowly saying, "Did you make an appointment with Ruirui to go out and play?"
"Yes, we've made an appointment to go out on Saturday."
"Just the two of you?"
Chen Congyu said: "Yes, it's just the two of us, Songsong is not in Haicheng."
Then he didn't say anything else, as if he just remembered and asked.
After sending him back to No. 118 Jinghu, Shen Congyu did not leave at night. They did it on the sofa, and then Jiang Xilin went upstairs to take a shower.
After she recovered, she went to the guest room to find her clothes and took a shower, but there was no sign of Jiang Xilin.
She went to the master bedroom door and opened it a little to peek in. The lights were off and Jiang Xilin was asleep.
Chen Congyu guessed that it was because he worked too much and drank alcohol at night.
This is perfect, it saves her from having to worry about it.
Chen Congyu returned to the guest room and slept for the night.
After another day of work, it was Saturday. Chen Congyu went to bed early last night and got up early to pack her things. Xue Mingrui would come to pick her up later.
It was almost time when Shen Congyu heard a knock on the door and went to open it. Xue Mingrui appeared with Chen Yao behind her.
Xue Mingrui laughed dryly, a laugh that sounded like crying, "I ran into him downstairs."
Chen Yao said: "There is no way. If I don't do this, how can you see me?"
Chen Congyu didn't want her good vacation to be ruined by him, so she pulled Xue Mingrui over and wanted her to go in first. Chen Yao followed Xue Mingrui and squeezed in together.
"you……"
In front of Xue Mingrui, Shen Congyu didn't want to be embarrassed and asked Chen Yao: "What are you doing here?"
"I couldn't get in touch with you so I just came to your house. Where's your new boyfriend? Why does he let you live in a place like this?"
"I'd love to."
Her acquiescent attitude made Chen Yao feel uncomfortable.
He naturally thought of the scene of seeing them having dinner together that night.
"I didn't expect you to fall in love with someone so quickly. Is it because his last name is Zhou?"
Chen Congyu wanted to laugh, "What do you mean so fast? Who did I like before? You?"
The answer is definitely no.
Chen Yao looked worried. "So he knows about you and me? Even though we haven't got a marriage certificate, we've actually lived together for several years. Does he accept that?"
"That's my business. Whether he can accept it or not has nothing to do with you."
Chen Yao was even more displeased by Chen Congyu's cold attitude today, as if everything about her had nothing to do with him.
He grabbed her arm and couldn't help asking, "Why are you so cold to me? You smile so happily with other men!"
Xue Mingrui is here, and Shen Congyu doesn't want him to go crazy, especially because of these endless things.
"How long are you going to make such a fuss? Don't you understand the situation clearly?" She was too lazy to explain to him.
Chen Yao looked very fierce. As soon as he started to fight, Xue Mingrui stepped forward and tried to stop him.
Chen Congyu winked at her, fearing that Chen Yao might hurt her by mistake.
Xue Mingrui said, "It's been so long, can't you just part ways amicably? Is there any point in forcing this?"
"Shut up! What do you know?"
After yelling at Xue Mingrui, Chen Yao squeezed Chen Congyu's arms even harder, "I was the one who forced it in the beginning, and I got it, didn't I? Why can't I get it now?"
Chen Congyu was tired of trying to convince him. Since he wouldn't listen and continued to insist on his ideas, she decided to just give up.
"Because I like someone else, is that enough?"
Chen Congyu spoke clearly, afraid that this sentence was not clear enough, and continued: "I have never had any feelings for you. You know that I am in love with another man now, so of course I have to live my new life."
Chen Yao was very angry, and Shen Congyu could sense it from his strength.
Her arm seemed to be broken by him.
Chen Yao threw her away. "I don't believe it! Tell me, you're attracted to him because of his conditions, right? How could you possibly love someone else? Is it because his last name is Zhou? Did you choose him on purpose to force me?"
"No matter who you are, I have no feelings for you."
The emotions that stimulated Chen Yao accumulated to a peak. His eyes were red, but he was enduring to the extreme. He strode forward, ready to take action.
