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 55 Follow Me or Monitor Me

Although Yuan An was surprised by Chen Yao's sudden appearance, he quickly reacted and had a brief chat with Chen Yao.

Chen Yao played the role of Chen Congyu's husband very well.

Chen Congyu listened from the side, appearing calm on the surface, but full of ridicule in his heart.

She was too silent, so she took the opportunity to speak up and say to the original case, "That's all for today. I'm leaving now. I'll contact you if you need anything."

Yuan An's eyes were calm. He nodded and said goodbye to the couple.

Watching the people walk out of the cafe, Yuan An sat down, rubbed his fingers, and recalled what was wrong just now.

Something is really wrong.

Yuan An thought he was quite perceptive, so he could see that there was no intimacy between Chen Congyu and Chen Yao.

The most obvious thing is that when Chen Yao appeared, Shen Congyu's expression changed from calm to disgust and resistance, which was absolutely the most real.

Even if we had an argument, I wouldn't react like that.

Very strange.

The original case settled the bill and left, and went to pick up Jiang Xilin at the appointed time.

Jiang Xilin had a dinner party and drank some wine at noon. After getting in the car, he took a phone call to deal with work. When the car was quiet again, Jiang Xilin said:

"Invite Ruirui to come over to my place for dinner tonight."

"good."

Yuan An was driving seriously, and took the time to glance sideways at the passenger seat.

Jiang Xilin caught it, raised an eyebrow and asked him, "What's wrong?"

“I went to see Chen Congyu at noon.”

Jiang Xilin has been very busy these days, with many dinner parties and social gatherings, and the inevitable drinking and socializing. These are the things Jiang Xilin hates the most, but now he has no choice.

So he was outside during the day, and when he got home he would rest as much as possible, and he didn't ask about anything else.

The original case suddenly mentioned Shen Congyu, and Jiang Xilin remembered that she had resigned.

"Is it because I want to prevent her from resigning?"

Original Case: "Yes, but not entirely. Her husband came to Haicheng."

Jiang Xilin narrowed his eyes, indeed surprised.

He tugged at his collar and asked, "Did they go to see you together?"

"No, the guy named Chen came when we were almost done."

Jiang Xilin didn't say anything.

He soon realized that there was more to the original case.

Yuan An received the hint and continued, "I feel like they're not in the right state. When Chen Congyu saw Chen Yao appear, he seemed to really not want to see him."

“Chen Congyu said she had a quarrel with Chen Yao.”

The words she said that time about divorcing Chen Yao came to Jiang Xilin's mind at this moment.

During this period of time, he didn't take Chen Congyu's talk of divorce seriously that night.

In other words, the reason he thought this way was that he wondered how she could really want a divorce.

After listening to Jiang Xilin's words, Yuan An analyzed: "Is it because they quarreled that Chen Congyu returned to Haicheng alone for so long, and only now did the man surnamed Chen show up?"

He concluded, "It seems they had a serious quarrel."

Jiang Xilin touched the buttons on his cuffs and then said, "Is it serious enough to warrant a divorce?"

"Did Chen Congyu say she wanted a divorce?" Yuan An was surprised. Now that he heard this, some of the explanation seemed to make sense. "Today, I saw that they didn't look like a couple. They weren't strangers, but rather a very strange state. Chen Congyu didn't want to see him."

There were many things that were not clear before, but now that they have a bad relationship as a couple, things are much smoother.

Especially when Shen Congyu would rather think of borrowing money from Qi Ming for the house in Dong Mansion, Jiang Xilin felt something was wrong at that time.

It was just that when Chen Yao's parents were in trouble, the reason Shen Congyu gave was that he was an illegitimate child, and with such a big thing happening in his family, he couldn't come up with such a large sum of money all at once.

If it was because her relationship with Chen Yao was already very bad, then it would be correct that she was unwilling to ask Chen Yao for money.

Jiang Xilin suddenly asked Yuan An: "You asked Shen Congyu to meet, so her attitude towards you should be pretty good, right?"

Yuan An paused and chose to tell the truth, "Yes, it's okay."

Hearing this, Jiang Xilin sneered.

It’s not because of the original case, it’s because of Shen Congyu.

"She's been the same to you and Rarity."

The original case listened and suddenly didn't know how to respond.

He thought for a moment and said, "I thought she would ignore us, but she didn't."

Jiang Xilin: "If she knew you had been investigating her for me for so long, she probably wouldn't be like this now."

Shen Congyu only looks gentle, but is actually very cold-hearted. Of course, when he was with Shen Congyu a few years ago, Jiang Xilin had not realized this.

He thought that this was her personality. Most of the time she was indifferent to everything and occasionally seemed cold and aloof. It didn't matter as long as she was sincere.

Actually.

Jiang Xilin looked at the street scene outside, pursed his lips and said no more.

Chen Congyu and Chen Yao left the coffee shop, but before they could reach a deserted place, Chen Congyu couldn't help it.

She shook off Chen Yao's hand and distanced herself from him.

"How did you know I was here?" Chen Congyu said sullenly, "Are you following me or spying on me?"

Chen Congyu has seen both of these methods.

Chen Yao wore a dark coat today. He looked good, but Shen Congyu had a scary filter for him. She felt that the dark color made his eyes look even more malicious.

It's so sinister, like an evil ghost that sticks to your back and you can't get rid of it no matter how hard you try.

He wanted to touch Chen Congyu, but was directly avoided. He smiled helplessly, "You ignored me, and I didn't find anyone at your house. If I don't use some special means, how can I find you?"

"Don't talk so pompously. I don't want to see you, and there's nothing to say between us."

Chen Yao: "No? After all, I am your husband. We didn't get a marriage certificate, but we had a wedding. Everyone who knows us knows about our relationship. Do you want to deny all this?"

Chen Congyu knew that he was a scoundrel. She had seen through his character over the past few years.

At the same time, she knew very well that it would be very difficult for her to get rid of him.

"I can't deny it, but I don't want to go on like this, not even for a minute, let alone a day."

Chen Congyu deliberately wanted to let him know how much she disliked him.

Even though I knew saying this would make him angry.

Chen Yao clenched his fists. "Did you find a new supporter during the time you were away? Was it that man from before?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"You don't look like just any friends."

Chen Congyu knew that he was beginning to doubt her again, or that he was going to make up another excuse to make her behave.

She didn't want to pay attention to Chen Yao. She and Yuan An were not just ordinary friends, how could she explain it to him?

Chen Congyu rolled her eyes unabashedly and turned to walk outside.

Chen Yao didn't follow. He stood there and said, "Remember to reply to my message, otherwise don't blame me for trying to find you in another way."

Shen Congyu returned home and was fully armed, and then he felt relieved.

Chen Yao was probably worried because this was Haicheng, not their territory abroad, but if this continued, there would be no outcome.
