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 183 Impossible!

Chapter 183 Impossible!

Duan Zhen hasn't been so impulsive since she caught Jiang Xilin and Shen Congyu on Zhou Zhou's birthday.

This time she realized something was different because Shen Congyu moved in.

Duan Zhen's inner alarm bells rang, and she ignored Duan Ke's instructions and couldn't help but question Jiang Xilin.

Jiang Xilin said even more bluntly: "Since your sister didn't say anything, do you know better than her?"

"My sister likes you, so there are some things she can't see clearly."

Jiang Xilin said slowly: "Really? Do you think you can see it more clearly than her?"

Duan Zhen is not a tolerant person, and she immediately became upset after being provoked by Jiang Xilin.

"You were the ones who wronged my sister first, okay?" Duan Zhen thought of this and turned the conversation to Chen Congyu, "I really didn't expect you to be so capable. I was right about you from the beginning!"

Chen Congyu thought that Duan Zhen might not be fully aware of the matter, for example, the fact that she and Jiang Xilin were married.

The current situation was caused by Jiang Xilin, and Chen Congyu didn't want to waste any more time arguing with Duan Zhen.

She had almost finished her meal, and her appetite had been ruined by the quarrel. She put down her bowl and wiped the corner of her mouth. "Miss Duan, there are some things I can't decide. If you can't change it, I'll thank you. If not, please don't quarrel."

Speaking of which, Shen Congyu looked at Jiang Xilin with a clear meaning, telling Duan Zhen that the person she wanted to deal with was Jiang Xilin.

Saying this in front of Jiang Xilin, Chen Congyu is not worried at all that Jiang Xilin will be unhappy.

After she finished speaking, she stood up to leave. Duan Zhen was reluctant and tried to stop her, but Jiang Xilin called her name in a warning tone.

As Duan Zhen hesitated, Shen Congyu walked past her and went upstairs.

Duan Zhen was reluctant, "Brother Jiang, how can you do this now?"

"You chased me here to argue, and you still think you're doing the right thing? Or should I ask you to sit down and confess to me?"

Duan Zhen couldn't stand him talking like that. After a while, she hesitated for a moment before adding, "Then can't I stand up for my sister? You've been together for so long, and now you're breaking up like this. My sister may not say anything, but she must be very sad inside."

In fact, Duan Zhen’s main purpose was not to settle the score, but to see if he could make the two of them reconcile.

Jiang Xilin didn't want to continue arguing with someone who didn't know the inside story, so he calmly said, "Your sister can accept it because we broke up a year ago."

"What? Impossible!"

Jiang Xilin said bluntly: "You can go back and ask your sister."

Judging from his attitude, Duan Zhen knew that there was no need for him to lie to her about this matter.

But because of this, she couldn't accept it anymore.

Jiang Xilin didn't give her time to recover. He asked her aunt to send her out and even told her not to open the door for Duan Zhen without his consent.

Duan Zhen pulled herself out of her emotions, her chest heaving with anger. Although she hadn't come here casually before, when she heard Jiang Xilin say this, she naturally assumed it was because Shen Congyu was now living there.

She stomped her high heels so hard that they made a clattering sound, as if she wished she could trample through the ground to express her anger.

Chen Congyu returned to the guest room to handle temporary work, regardless of what Jiang Xilin would say to Duan Zhen downstairs. If Duan Zhen had talked to Duan Ke before coming here, she would know that she was not in a position to make decisions around Jiang Xilin, and Duan Ke should work harder on Jiang Xilin.

If she said too much, Duan Zhen might think she was showing off.

When Jiang Xilin came up to find her, he found that she had locked the door from the inside. He felt amused at her useless effort.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door anyway.

Chen Congyu took a long time to open the door, and did not let anyone in. She blocked the door herself, waiting for him to speak.

Jiang Xilin: "You've already moved in, what's the point of locking the door?"

Chen Congyu: "No? Then you can tear down the door."

"Are you planning to just throw the can down the drain?"

Chen Congyu pursed her lips and was about to close the door.

Jiang Xilin raised his foot to block the door, "Duan Zhen left."

Thinking of Duan Zhen's attitude, Shen Congyu said: "If you treat her like that, she will only dislike me even more."

"With your temper, will you be bullied by her?"

Chen Congyu turned away from him and said in a hard tone, "Because she has you as her support, she has bullied me a lot."

She was talking about the trouble Duan Zhen had caused before, and how Jiang Xilin had put pressure on her and made her suffer for nothing.

Apparently Jiang Xilin had thought of this as well, and he said, "Her affairs will have nothing to do with me from now on."

Chen Congyu still didn't believe it.

She couldn't ask Duan Ke and Duan Zhen for confirmation, so Jiang Xilin's words were just what she believed. Her credibility was too low.

"Are you done? I'm going to take a shower and rest after that."

Without waiting for Jiang Xilin to speak, she closed the door.

In fact, she was worried that Jiang Xilin would come to the guest room at night, so Shen Congyu deliberately pretended to be unwell and wanted to rest early.

She was not feeling unwell, but she hadn't slept well in the past two days, and she was not only physically exhausted, but also mentally exhausted.

But Jiang Xilin did not come that night.

Chen Congyu had to continue going to work. Jinghu was shorter and more convenient to the magazine office than her previous residence, but she still got up according to her usual alarm time, hoping to reduce the time she spent with Jiang Xilin.

She had just sat down to eat breakfast when Jiang Xilin also came downstairs. Eating face to face was inevitable, and Shen Congyu kept her eyelids drooping from beginning to end, eating her own food without saying a word.

She ate faster, and when she stood up to leave, Jiang Xilin suddenly asked, "You don't want to go out anymore?"

There was another implicit warning in his words.

Chen Congyu pretended to be stupid: "What did I do?"

Jiang Xilin took a sip of coffee and said, "Sit down and wait for me."

Chen Congyu took a deep breath, sat back down for the sake of getting a ride later, and played with his phone.

The person driving today was Yuan An. After Chen Congyu got in the car, he put on headphones and closed his eyes. It was obvious that he didn't want to face it.

It was so obvious that Yuan An saw it. The reason why I said that was that when they were about to reach the magazine office, Shen Congyu automatically opened his eyes and asked Yuan An to stop the car at the intersection.

If it weren't for this, she probably wouldn't want to say a word.

Yuan An still looked at Jiang Xilin and asked for his consent.

Jiang Xilin said, "Send it to the door."

Chen Congyu frowned: "I don't want it."

Unfortunately, the original case will only listen to Jiang Xilin.

The car stopped at the door of the magazine. Shen Congyu said nothing and even glared at Jiang Xilin secretly before getting out of the car.

Yuan An was observing Shen Congyu's reaction in front. Based on his understanding of Shen Congyu, he knew that Shen Congyu must be unhappy.

When he quickly withdrew his gaze from Chen Congyu's back and subconsciously looked at Jiang Xilin in the rearview mirror, his gaze suddenly stopped.

Because he found that Jiang Xilin was also staring at Chen Congyu's leaving figure, and there was a faint curve at the corner of his mouth.

The original man thought he was seeing things, but his eyesight was good.

He continued driving before Jiang Xilin noticed, but he couldn't help but think of what Xue Mingrui said when they argued that day.
