Chapter 284 Not Optional

Jiang Xilin and Chen Congyu went upstairs. Although it had not been long since the last time they went to her house, for Jiang Xilin, this time it was Chen Congyu who agreed, which was different from before.

His mentality has changed a lot now. After all, it has been so long, and the men around her have either fallen behind or remain the same - you know, there is no hatred or resentment, and there has been no progress for so long, which only means that it is impossible.

But he is different.

Their relationship has changed again and again. Even after leaving for two months with such a good opportunity, she still worries about him and is willing to be nice to him. How can this not be progress?

After entering the door, Shen Congyu remembered to ask: "Have you eaten?"

She thought she was just asking casually. It was already past dinner time, so why would this person go to see him without having eaten?

It turned out that Jiang Xilin had not had dinner yet.

If she hadn't asked, she wouldn't have known, and everything would have been fine. But now that she knew, the man was still staring at her. In a fit of rage, she replied, "There are only a few wontons in the refrigerator."

A smile appeared in Jiang Xilin's eyes. "Okay, tell me where it is and I'll cook it myself."

After telling him, Shen Congyu felt a little regretful, but since he had already said it, there was no point in regretting it.

Jiang Xilin rolled up his sleeves and walked towards the kitchen. Before entering, he said, "Don't worry about me. Just do your thing first."

Chen Congyu originally wanted to come back and take a shower first... Thinking of the time it would take to cook wontons, she nodded.

"Just grab anything you need from the fridge."

She said and went into the master bedroom.

The wontons in the refrigerator were brought to her by Cheng Xi when she came to see her a few days ago. She made them herself. She ate them twice and there were still some left.

When Jiang Xilin lived across the street, she would eat his meals five days a week, but she rarely invited him to dinner.

Chen Congyu washed his hair and took a bath, which took a long time. When he walked out of the room, he was already eating at the dining table. When he saw her come out, he stopped.

"Are you done?"

"Yeah." Chen Congyu put down the towel she was using to dry her hair, went over to get a glass of water, and leaned against the sideboard to talk to him. "I heard that Ruirui and Yan Zhao have been getting close recently."

Jiang Xilin obviously knew about this.

"I didn't ask much, but Yan Zhao said that he saw Rui Rui was too sad about the original case, so he paid more attention to it." He probably guessed why Chen Congyu talked to him about this, and explained: "It seems that they had more contact because Yan Zhao helped to deal with it."

In fact, Shen Congyu had nothing to be confused about. Xue Mingrui had known Yan Zhao for much longer than she had, and there was no grudge between them, so there was nothing to worry about.

"By the way," Jiang Xilin said, "you and Ruirui went to Star City last month. Do you have any ideas?"

He would know that Shen Congyu was not surprised. Whether it was Xue Mingrui or Jiang Qunqing, they might mention it to him.

Little did he know that it was Jiang Xilin himself who saw it that day.

He had wanted to know what she was thinking since that day, and he couldn't bear it any longer.

"Rui Rui wanted to go and see what was going on, and I happened to want to know too, so we went together." Chen Congyu told the truth.

It didn't sound like anything special, but Jiang Xilin was still very satisfied.

As long as you care, it's not a bad thing.

He wanted to prove little by little, time and time again, that Chen Congyu was not indifferent and dispensable to him.

Jiang Xilin looked at her seriously and said, "This won't happen again."

At this time, Chen Congyu didn't know that these words were a guarantee for her to hear, and thought he was talking about the progress of handling the Jiang family's affairs.

"Have you taken care of it? That time in Xingcheng, Ruirui and I ran into Jiang Qunqing. Didn't you two team up?"

Jiang Xilin said: "Yes, he helped me secretly."

"He didn't reveal anything at the time."

"That's what I meant," Jiang Xilin said. "It wasn't directed at you. It was the same for everyone at that time."
