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 2 It's Late
Chen Congyu didn't contact anyone and quietly submitted her resume to several companies. However, it was difficult to find a job now. She had delayed her graduation for another year, and for several days in a row, she didn't receive any good news.
Jiang Xilin found out about this on the first day.
So it's impossible for her to find a job next.
Shen Congyu went out for an interview and was rejected again. Then when she saw Jiang Xilin appear in front of her, she vaguely realized this.
"How did you become like this? Aren't you a high and mighty princess?"
Chen Congyu was embarrassed.
These were the words her father used to ridicule Jiang Xilin after he found out that she had secretly gotten married with him.
Unfortunately, things have changed.
Her father must have regretted it deeply before he died.
"Mr. Jiang, are you free?"
Shen Congyu thought he was boring and she didn't have time to play with him. She raised her foot to leave, but was stopped by his assistant who handed her a piece of paper.
Playing piano in a high-end hotel, earning 10,000 yuan a month plus commission.
Chen Congyu glanced at the name of the hotel and asked, "Are you going to put me under your nose and watch me laugh?"
Jiang Xilin was wearing a coat that reached his calves, and he had a slender figure. The iron-gray color made him look very unkind, and his eyebrows and eyes were indeed sharp.
"You don't have to do it, but no one else will want you."
He didn't hide his actions and said sarcastically, "Besides, you seem to have been spoiled. I'm quite curious, after being supported for so long, why are you asked to come out to work now?"
Shen Congyu only now realized that he had checked her.
But those were just superficial efforts by Chen Yao. She didn't have a job because Chen Yao didn't allow her to. She was spoiled because Chen Yao locked her up every now and then.
She now only had a few thousand dollars left on her, which she had saved after she and Chen Yao had completely broken up, and it would soon be gone.
She does need the income.
Shen Congyu did not respond to Jiang Xilin's humiliating words, but only said, "I will do it."
She seemed to agree easily, but Jiang Xilin still saw the reluctance in her eyes.
"Are you feeling wronged?" Jiang Xilin asked.
His assistant helped him open the car door and said to Shen Congyu: “Ms. Shen, your future colleagues all have master’s degrees.”
Chen Congyu suddenly clenched her fingers.
Before getting into the car, Jiang Xilin glanced at her lightly, then got in and drove away.
Chen Congyu knew what he meant. A person who gave up further studies because of marriage had no right to be picky.
The reason he allowed her to play the piano was because he opened the back door, otherwise it would not have been her turn.
After not seeing each other for a few years, Jiang Xilin has matured a lot and knows how to kill people without shedding blood.
…
Shen Congyu went to the hotel for an interview the next day, and it went very smoothly. She thought that Jiang Xilin really wanted to see her laugh from a close distance.
But there was no way. The lawyer said that the only thing left to her from her father's estate was an 80-square-meter house and two million in cash, and the rest would go to his concubine and the son born to her.
Although she had known that she wouldn't get much, she was still surprised. However, the most urgent thing was to settle down in Haicheng.
After working for a few days, Chen Congyu had become familiar with the place and had not seen Jiang Xilin. From what others said privately, he actually did not come here very often.
Two days later, Shen Congyu ran into someone she knew before at work. The other person was surprised to see her playing the piano here.
"You, why are you here? Do you still remember me?"
Shen Congyu: “Remember, Mr. Qi.”
Qi Ming waved his hand, "Don't be so polite... I just didn't expect to see you here."
Shen's father passed away, and Shen Congyu must have come back, but it was unexpected that she was playing the piano here... It seems that there is no place for her in the Shen family now.
Qi Ming spoke to Shen Congyu as if he was very familiar with her. He was afraid that talking would delay her work, so he bought a few bottles of wine and gave her the commission.
Of course Shen Congyu didn't refuse and chatted with him.
Finally, before Qi Ming left, he added Shen Congyu on WeChat.
This matter was reported to Jiang Xilin.
There was a room in the hotel dedicated to Jiang Xilin. Shen Congyu didn't know it at first. The manager arranged for her to play the piano there. When she entered the room, she saw a familiar person sitting at the table.
Chen Congyu took a deep breath and called out as instructed, "Boss Jiang."
Jiang Xilin responded with a sneer.
Chen Congyu tried her best to ignore it and went over to play the piano.
Jiang Xilin called out to her, "Did I let you go?"
"…What do you want me to do?"
"Come and pour me some wine."
There were several bottles of wine on the table in front of him. Shen Congyu walked closer and found something strange - they were the same bottles that Qi Ming bought.
She glanced at Jiang Xilin and didn't think it was such a coincidence.
After pouring wine into his glass, Shen Congyu just took a step back when he heard Jiang Xilin say, "It seems that you have become accustomed to this job. Someone spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on you in just a few days."
“It’s the guest’s choice.”
"Whatever the guests ask you to do?"
Chen Congyu is particularly easy to talk to: "As long as it is within the scope of my work."
Jiang Xilin took the wine glass. His fingers were so beautiful that he looked like an exquisitely carved work of art when holding the glass. He shook the wine in the glass. He had not looked at her directly since she came in.
"Well, go play the piano." He glanced at her with an unfathomable look in his eyes. "Don't stop until I say stop."
Chen Congyu has working hours, but if the customer asks you to accompany him, how can you not accompany him? There are exceptions to everything, and Jiang Xilin is that exception.
It’s still late.
Chen Congyu tried her best to focus on herself and not pay attention to Jiang Xilin, but he did it on purpose. He didn't speak at all, lowered his eyes to look at his phone, and treated her as a background board.
After a long time, Chen Congyu would definitely not be able to hold on. The sound of the piano became intermittent, and he did not react at all. She bit her lip and continued to play.
Later on, the sound of the piano became more and more impatient, even harsh. Chen Congyu did it on purpose. She didn't believe that Jiang Xilin didn't find it noisy.
Sure enough, he frowned and shouted to stop.
Chen Congyu's hands were cramping.
"Intentional?"
"I dare not."
Jiang Xilin asked again: "Does your hand hurt?"
Shen Congyu was stunned and didn’t think he cared about her.
“It does get a little uncomfortable after playing for so long.”
Pack.
Jiang Xilin sent a message to the person outside, then turned to her and said, "Then we'll continue later."
Chen Congyu didn't say anything, not knowing what he meant.
Within two minutes, someone knocked on the door.
Jiang Xilin put down his wine glass and said, "Come in."
The manager pushed the door open, and there was another person behind him, Qi Ming.
Qi Ming said: "Why did you suddenly think of treating me to a meal?"
After he finished speaking, he saw Shen Congyu behind the piano. He was quite surprised, "Congyu? What a coincidence?"
He called out affectionately, and Chen Congyu looked towards Jiang Xilin inexplicably.
Jiang Xilin smiled.
