Chapter 261 Unhappy

Chen Congyu turned her face away, avoiding his sight, and said, "If you want to ask me for anything because of my help this time, I won't agree to it."

Jiang Xilin smiled.

There was a hint of displeasure in that smile, but also a hint of laughter at being pissed off at her.

"Do you think I'm helping you this time just to ask for something?" Jiang Xilin couldn't do anything with her. He gritted his teeth and said, "I don't have that idea. Don't you think I'm a little too shameless?"

"I……"

It was one thing for Chen Congyu to think this way, but she would still feel embarrassed when it was exposed so blatantly.

This time she couldn't say she didn't have it as she did last time on Jiang Xilin's birthday. After all, Jiang Xilin played a huge role this time.

She still apologized honestly.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that to you. I should have thanked you properly. Tell me, what do you want?"

Jiang Xilin drove the car and didn't speak for a long time.

Chen Congyu's heart was beating fast, and she knew that she couldn't make him angry no matter what, as that would be too heartless.

"I'm serious. I was wrong just now. How can you calm down?"

She looked serious now, waiting for Jiang Xilin's answer.

Jiang Xilin saw from the corner of his eyes that he was not as unhappy as he appeared, because he had long been accustomed to Shen Congyu's conscienceless attitude.

"You can do what I say?"

Chen Congyu stumbled slightly before saying, "That certainly can't be too much."

Jiang Xilin laughed, not at all surprised by her answer.

Chen Congyu is still waiting.

If he didn't tell her, she wouldn't feel relieved.

Jiang Xilin made her wait for a long time, then said, "I haven't thought about it yet. If you really want to thank me, there's no need to rush."

Having said that, Chen Congyu still wanted to have a clear idea in his mind.

Her eyes fell on his hands again. His hands were very beautiful, and the ring on them made them stand out even more.

He probably hadn't even considered hiding anything, otherwise who wouldn't have noticed?

"I saw the birthday present you gave me," Chen Congyu asked, "Did you give me the right one? Why did you give me that?"

“It’s the right one.”

A ring is not a normal birthday gift, let alone one that is so expensive.

Chen Congyu really couldn't accept it at ease.

"A birthday gift is just a token of your appreciation. I can't accept something so expensive."

Especially after seeing what Jiang Xilin was wearing.

Jiang Xilin seemed to have expected this, and his emotions remained relatively calm as he said, "You promised me last time that you would accept it."

"That's because I didn't know what you gave me at the time."

"What difference does it make if you know?"

You know the answer but still ask!

Chen Congyu: “It’s just different.”

She didn't give Jiang Xilin a chance to say anything more. She took out the original gift box from her bag and said, "I won't accept it. I'll give it back to you."

Only then did Jiang Xilin reveal a truly unhappy expression.

He didn’t expect Shen Congyu to do this.

If he wasn't driving and it was inconvenient, he would have held her hand when Shen Congyu took it out.

"You want me to take it back after I gave it away. What? Do you want me to throw it in the trash like last time?"

"That's not what I meant... It's not the same thing. It's very valuable."

Jiang Xilin was too lazy to say more and simply said, "It's not expensive for me. Just take it if I give it to you. Is that okay?"

Chen Congyu was speechless for a moment.

She was in a dilemma whether to accept it or not.

In such a tangled state, Jiang Xilin finally said, "If you really can't accept it, go sell it and consider it as money I'm giving you."

He has a tough attitude and he won't take it back.

Selling them all would bring in a considerable sum of money, but...

Chen Congyu felt that Jiang Xilin was forcing her in disguise.

Before she could say anything else, her cell phone rang. It was Zhou Yuye calling.

Shen Congyu subconsciously glanced at Jiang Xilin.

Jiang Xilin caught it instantly with this action.

Based on his understanding of Shen Congyu, he must know the person who called, and she didn't want him to know who it was.

Besides men, who else is around her that he doesn't want to know?

Jiang Xilin gripped the steering wheel tightly and asked casually, "Who's looking for you? We haven't finished talking yet."
