Chapter 231 Not Worth Mentioning

To Mr. Jiang and other guests, Jiang Xilin's words seemed considerate and comforting.

But Jiang Jingxun sounded the exact opposite.

How could Jiang Xilin be so kind?

Isn't it just belittling him and showing off himself in words and deeds?

Jiang Jingxun put down his hand that was touching his face, his skin still hot, and stared at Jiang Xilin coldly.

Jiang Jingxun's parents stepped forward to help him clean up the mess.

Not only did he fail to show off, but he also lost face.

Jiang Jingxun's parents pulled him aside and stopped him from hanging around in front, as this would annoy the old man.

Next, the other descendants of the Jiang family presented their gifts. Although not as ostentatious as Jiang Jingxun’s, they were all well-prepared.

Besides, with his accident in front of him, everyone who came after him seemed so considerate and serious.

The old man temporarily put aside the unpleasantness just now. He had many children and grandchildren, a prosperous family business, and he found his grandson whom he hadn't seen for more than 20 years. He was still so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

Jiang Xilin also gave a valuable gift, but Shen Congyu was in the outer circle and didn’t see it clearly. From what the people in front said, it was a very rare gift.

After this night, Jiang Xilin's identity and reputation were established.

The birthday party gradually came to an end and the guests gradually left.

The old man was old and it was getting late, so he left Jiang Xilin alone to talk before going upstairs to rest.

After that, Shen Congyu didn’t know what happened, but Jiang Xilin didn’t say anything, so she didn’t leave for the time being and waited for him to come over.

Probably on a day like today, he was really busy. After meeting the old man, he still had to meet other elders of the Jiang family. Shen Congyu waited for a long time, so long that he fell asleep in the lounge.

When she woke up again, she found that the light in front of her was blocked by shadows. She regained consciousness in a daze, sat up straight, and found that the person in front of her was Jiang Xilin.

Chen Congyu's voice was muffled, and she asked Jiang Xilin in a very natural and intimate tone, "Have you dealt with everything?"

Jiang Xilin didn't know when he came, and he just sat down on the sofa next to her. "Okay. You waited for so long and didn't urge me?"

"You'll definitely be busy tonight. What's the point of me rushing you?"

Jiang Xilin: "If you urge me, I'll have a reason to tell them I'll go back early."

Chen Congyu took a sip of water and sobered up a bit, "Aren't you staying here tonight? I thought they would let you stay."

Although he had just returned after so many years, they were a real family after all. Shen Congyu thought it would take him some time to integrate into the Jiang family.

Jiang Xilin said, "There's no real reason to stay. It's not like we all have free time."

It can be seen that he has no intention of establishing a close so-called kinship relationship with these people, as if to him they are just another identity.

Chen Congyu thought this was a bit too wasteful.

"But after all, they are relatives that we have found with great difficulty. Even if you don't consider the relationship as a family, it would be good for you to get to know them more."

Jiang Xilin was quite casual. "It doesn't matter. There's still plenty of time in the future. Besides, if I can't wait to move in, it will seem like I'm in a hurry."

Seeing that he had made plans, Chen Congyu stopped trying to persuade him. After all, he must have his own plans.

She picked up her bag and asked, "Shall we go back?"

Jiang Xilin suddenly said: "Grandpa said before that he wanted to see you."

"See me?" Chen Congyu thought for a moment and said, "Is it because of our previous marriage? Didn't you explain the current situation to him clearly?"

She was visibly nervous and somewhat resistant.

Jiang Xilin's gaze was like a mirror, reflecting her innermost reaction.

He smiled, "Don't worry, I said we will leave tomorrow and see each other again if there is a chance. You are right, after all, we divorced a long time ago, and there is nothing extra to do now. The old man also saw you today, so it won't affect anything if we don't meet." This answer was what Shen Congyu wanted to hear, and she quickly accepted it and nodded without saying a word.

In fact, Mr. Jiang’s idea was not as simple as Jiang Xilin said. The old man did meet Shen Congyu and wanted to see what the woman who had been married to Jiang Xilin was like.

But since they are not together now, it will not affect Jiang Xilin's identity as his future wife, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't see Shen Congyu.

To put it bluntly, Chen Congyu is now not worth mentioning in the eyes of the Jiang family.

Since Jiang Xilin said so, Shen Congyu no longer paid attention.

Before they left the Jiang family, Jiang Qunqing spoke to them specifically.

"Miss Shen, please come this way. I thought that since you and Xilin are married, your relationship is naturally different from others. I understand that you want to meet him now, right?"

The words were spoken so properly, what else could Shen Congyu say, and it didn't have any effect on her.

She smiled and said, "I understand. Besides, your family is very considerate in hosting us."

Jiang Qunqing glanced at Jiang Xilin and said jokingly, "Yes, after all, Xilin himself has been with you all the time."

"We were just passing by, and if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have come because of me." Shen Congyu explained.

Jiang Xilin said, "We should go back."

Jiang Qunqing had someone bring some things to Jiang Xilin and told him, "Come often when you have time. Grandpa really hopes that you can come back and stay here when you have time."

"It depends."

Jiang Qunqing also shook hands with Shen Congyu and said, "See you again if there's a chance."

Jiang Xilin was dressed more formally tonight, not as business-like as when he usually talked about work, but more refined, probably to suit an occasion like tonight.

So Shen Congyu rarely saw him like this.

She had no time to think about it at first, but now that they were in the car, her attention was focused on Jiang Xilin.

Xi Wen was driving in front. Chen Congyu held up her chin and asked Jiang Xilin, "Did Jiang Jingxun's gift that was broken tonight have anything to do with you?"

Jiang Xilin unbuttoned a button to open his collar a little. He was not really used to the situation tonight, but he had a purpose. He was not someone who would allow himself to be bullied.

So when Chen Congyu asked him this, he said, "I had someone do it, how did you know?"

"I guessed. After all, if you keep something so valuable in your own home, you'll definitely have someone take good care of it. But that doesn't mean you're the one who caused the trouble. It's just my guess, and it seems I was right."

Jiang Jingxun was so arrogant and had such a bad attitude, Shen Congyu thought that Jiang Xilin would definitely not swallow his anger.

Start with whatever you care about the most. If it were her, she would do the same.

Jiang Xilin didn't hesitate to tell her, and even asked her: "How did you feel when you saw it?"

Chen Congyu spoke frankly, "Of course it feels good. Who made him talk so badly?"
