Stained Reputation

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 169 Half-year Lease

As soon as Shen Congyu saw his expression, he immediately understood.

What he said was good was definitely not good for that person.

She wanted to know what he would do to Chen Yao, but she felt that it didn't matter, as long as he took care of it.

More importantly, “Can this be done once and for all?”

Shen Congyu looked at Jiang Xilin with bright and focused eyes. Jiang Xilin laughed and held the back of her neck. "You are so cruel. Will you treat me like this if you have the chance in the future?"

Chen Congyu was unconsciously leaned forward by his strength, and the distance between them became closer. She straightened her body and said aggrievedly: "He has been pestering me for so long, it has not only affected my life. Of course I don't want to see him again in the future. Is this normal?"

Although it sounds like I'm playing the victim, it's the truth.

She even hated Chen Yao so much that she couldn't bear to see him live a good day for the rest of his life.

As for the questions Jiang Xilin asked about himself, Shen Congyu naturally would not answer. She leaned forward and kissed him, "Thank you for helping me."

She is very aware of her current identity.

Jiang Xilin: "I owe even more."

Chen Congyu had no way to respond.

She had nothing to repay him, so when faced with this kind of problem, she could only play dumb.

Put your arms around his neck and kiss him.

Chen Congyu still had to return Zhou Zhou's things to him, and Jiang Xilin had something else to do, so he left her on the side of the road and went their separate ways.

After asking about Zhou Zhou's residence, he learned that he lived outside when he was alone, so it would be convenient for Chen Congyu to go and find him.

When she arrived at the downstairs of the residential complex, Shen Congyu was looking for a specific building when suddenly someone came up from behind her and got very close to her. Before she could make a sound of surprise, the person whispered to her in a low voice, "It's me, Zhou Yuye."

He held her arm and asked her to continue walking forward, saying, "There's someone following you. It seems to be the same person from last time."

Chen Congyu resisted the urge to look back and walked with him.

Zhou Yu also spoke to her calmly: "Has he been following you?"

“I don’t know.” Shen Congyu’s face turned pale.

The two of them seemed to be walking together closely until they entered the entrance hall and the unit door closed. Zhou Yu also let go of her hand and kept a distance from her.

Chen Congyu confirmed with him: "Did you see it was Chen Yao?"

Zhou Yuye: "It's him. He's following you, so I came to find you. I wanted him to know that we're together and let him leave."

He glanced outside and said, "We should go."

"Thank you, otherwise I wouldn't have noticed."

"I just happened to come here to see Zhou Zhou. Are you here to see him too?"

Chen Congyu nodded and told him about helping Wen Song return Zhou Zhou's gift.

Zhou Yu also pressed the floor button and said, "He should have figured it out by now."

Arriving at Zhou Zhou's residence, he found the house where he lived alone was large but looked a bit messy, which was consistent with Shen Congyu's impression of the current situation of a person trapped in love.

Even Zhou Zhou would become like this.

She looked at Zhou Zhou's slightly tired face and handed the thing in her hand back to him.

When Zhou Zhou saw the gift he had given out, his eyes became even dimmer.

"Please make the trip."

Seeing that he was also sincere towards Wen Song, Chen Congyu said, "I don't know if you have contacted Song Song yet. It should be possible in two days."

Zhou Zhou nodded.

There is no longer the liveliness and publicity of the past.

There was nothing else to say, Shen Congyu was about to leave, and Zhou Yu called her in time: "Come with me later, I'm worried that person is still there."

Since he took the initiative to bring it up, Shen Congyu agreed and stayed in the living room to wait for him while he and Zhou Zhou went to the room to talk.

Not long after, Zhou Yu and Zhou Zhou came out one after the other. Zhou Yu also said, "Let's go. It's getting late."

Chen Congyu looked at Zhou Zhou deliberately. He didn't know what Zhou Yu had said to him. His state was even more depressed than at the beginning.

After getting in the car, Zhou Yu also asked her: "You should be more careful about Chen Yao recently. Has he come to you?"

Aside from the last time Chen Yao barged into her house, Shen Congyu hadn't seen him since then. She knew he wouldn't let it go, so she was worried every day. She just didn't expect him to follow her. Fortunately, Zhou Yu was there today.

"Not recently, thanks to running into you today."

Zhou Yu also said: "It's not a solution if he keeps doing this."

Chen Congyu nodded, "I know, I've said everything, but he's still like this."

Zhou Yu also heard the helpless frustration in her words.

He held onto the steering wheel and said, "If you need anything, you can come to me."

"That would be too much trouble for you."

Zhou Yu also suddenly asked: "Are we friends now?"

Chen Congyu: “Forget it.”

"In that case, I can't just sit back and watch if you're in trouble."

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Congyu said gratefully, "Okay, thank you so much."

Zhou Yuye: "It's too early to thank me now. It won't be too late to thank me when I can really help you. But I hope that day won't come."

He sent Chen Congyu home. After arriving home, Chen Congyu took a shower first, then lay on the bed and sent a message to Jiang Xilin telling him that Chen Yao was following her.

Jiang Xilin seemed busy and did not reply.

Chen Congyu thought that he would see it sooner or later, so she didn't wait and went to bed.

The next night, Shen Congyu had dinner at home alone, and Jiang Xilin came.

When Shen Congyu opened the door for him, he couldn't help but look outside.

Jiang Xilin asked her: "Chen Yao follows you every day?"

"It doesn't seem so. I only encountered it once last night."

Having said that, Chen Congyu wondered if he was thinking too much and closed the door.

Jiang Xilin came to have a simple meal, and then he had some work to do. Chen Congyu gave the living room to him and stayed in the bedroom.

Later that evening, she also had some work to attend to.

Before Jiang Xilin finished his call, there was a knock on the door. It was a strange middle-aged man. The man was surprised to see him and asked him, "I'm the landlord of this house. Are you and the girl who rented my house together?"

"Yes, she's busy. What can I do for you?"

"Well, she's rented the place for six months, and it's about to expire. She said she doesn't want to continue renting it. I was thinking if she'd be free someday, I'd bring someone to look at the house."

Jiang Xilin stood at the door, his back to the light in the room, his face blurred.

He was silent for a few seconds and then asked, "She said she won't be able to stay after the expiration date?"

"yes."

"Okay, I'll tell her and ask her to contact you again."

Jiang Xilin's expression became completely gloomy until he saw the landlord off and closed the door.

He hadn't heard that Chen Congyu was going to move to a new house. Since the landlord was planning to bring a new tenant to see the house, it meant that the date was approaching.

She wasn't one to start preparing at the last minute.

Jiang Xilin looked towards the bedroom, the door was closed, and he had no idea what Shen Congyu was doing inside.

A few minutes later, Shen Congyu came out and saw Jiang Xilin sitting on the sofa. She walked over and asked, "Are you done?"

Jiang Xilin raised his eyes and said, "Come here, I have something to ask you."
