Chapter 87: Rotten and Waste

Chen Congyu couldn't tell whether she was crazy or Jiang Xilin was crazy. In short, she would never forget this night.

Jiang Xilin didn't even make it to the last step tonight, but Chen Congyu still fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.

All her strength and energy were drained away.

Even so, when she fell asleep, she curled up and leaned to the side, far away from Jiang Xilin on the bed.

Maintain this posture throughout the rest of the lesson.

Her avoidance and resistance to Jiang Xilin were obvious. After taking a shower, Jiang Xilin stayed in the living room and smoked two of her cigarettes.

Early in the morning, there was still a thin mist in the sky. Jiang Xilin closed the door and left. The elevator was late, so he pinched his brows and looked a little tired.

Not far away at the stairwell door, the cleaner was cleaning the trash can. She took out a complete express box and wanted the cardboard box, so she opened it, and a blood-red weird doll fell out.

The cleaner took one look and nearly had a heart attack, bumping into the door next to him with a loud bang.

Jiang Xilin couldn't help but look over and saw that the cleaner was holding a freshly opened express box in his hand, and something had fallen to the ground from it. Even from a distance, he could still see its horrific appearance.

He frowned, walked over, and stopped the tip of his shoe in front of the scattered photos. He bent down and picked up the doll and the two photos.

He asked the cleaning lady who was clutching her chest, "Hello, did these fall out of this delivery box?"

The aunt nodded, her face pale with fear, and then she calmed down a little before speaking: "I wanted to take the cardboard box back home, but when I opened it, I didn't expect this scary thing to fall out of it."

She didn't pay attention to Jiang Xilin and continued, "Who is so mean as to put something like this here? It's really scary and so immoral."

Jiang Xilin didn't say anything.

He was sure that he saw the express box delivered to Shen Congyu's door yesterday. It was indeed her name on it. She said she didn't know where it came from, but now when he opened it, there was this thing inside.

She lied again.

Jiang Xilin took the thing in his hand.

After leaving Chen Congyu, Jiang Xilin went to Yan Zhao's place in the afternoon. When he heard the people next to him talking about Shen You, he remembered to call Shen You.

Shen You answered the call quickly and politely, asking Jiang Xilin if he had any instructions.

Jiang Xilin was holding a photo in his hand. It was such a twisted and bloody photo that it looked like a weird toy in his hand.

He asked Shen You: "Has Chen Yao contacted you these days?"

Shen You is now between Chen Yao and Jiang Xilin, and has completely switched sides to Jiang Xilin. When Jiang Xilin asked him, he immediately told him everything.

"I found him yesterday. He asked me to invite my sister back to the Shen family in a couple of days."

Jiang Xilin: "You agreed?"

Shen You: "...I agreed. I was thinking of reporting to you when my sister comes back. Should I reject him?"

"No need." Jiang Xilin stared at the content of the photo. "Are you sure you can ask your sister to come back?"

"It should be possible."

Jiang Xilin suddenly crumpled the photo into a ball and said, "Okay, we'll talk about it later."

Yan Zhao watched and listened to the entire conversation. When he put down his phone, he asked, "Where did you get this photo? How could someone pull such a silly prank?"

"If I'm not mistaken, this is something that someone surnamed Chen sent to Chen Congyu," Jiang Xilin threw the crumpled photo in his hand into the trash can, "This shouldn't be the first time."

Yan Zhao raised his eyebrows. "I hadn't realized Chen Congyu's determination to break up with her. Now it seems that things are really bad between them. They even use this kind of thing to threaten me."

He then commented: “The man that Shen Congyu found has really bad tactics.”

Jiang Xilin really couldn't stand seeing such a man jumping around in front of him, especially between him and Shen Congyu, it was too troublesome.

If it weren't for Chen Yao, how could Shen Congyu think of leaving?

It just added a lot of trouble to him.

Jiang Xilin mocked, "It's rotten, and it's also useless."

…

The day Jiang Xilin left Chen Congyu happened to be Saturday, and Chen Congyu didn't report to the magazine until Monday, which gave her time to rest and adjust at home.

Otherwise, if she was asked to go to work immediately, she would definitely be unable to do so.

She was so familiar with Jiang Xilin that he knew all her sensitive points.

As long as he wanted, as long as he was unwilling to take her condition and feelings into consideration, he could torture her half to death.

It was not until today that she realized that Jiang Xilin had kept it before.

Chen Congyu lay in bed until the afternoon before regaining some energy and getting out of bed.

Although Jiang Xilin was dissatisfied with her for not telling the truth and deliberately making things difficult for her, she still did not give in and told him the real reason.

Because she couldn't be sure that if she told the truth, she would be faced with another kind of humiliation.

Chen Congyu had no appetite for two days until Monday morning, when she was about to go to work, when she bought some food from outside.

The environment of the magazine, or even the working environment, is very unfamiliar to Chen Congyu, but at the same time, it feels fresh.

Even though all she has to do now is an assistant in the editing and compiling position, she is very motivated.

On her first day at work, Shen Congyu felt how severe the temporary shortage of this position was. She was busy almost the entire day without even a five-minute break.

When it was time to get off work, she hadn't left yet because she still had some things she didn't understand and needed to catch up on.

After two more busy days, she was almost back on track.

All the messy things were thrown behind her when she was busy. When Shen Congyu received Shen You's call, she answered it without thinking much.

Shen You was quite surprised, "Sister?"

"If you have something to say, tell me quickly."

"Grandpa will be home tomorrow, why don't you come over and have dinner together."

Chen Congyu didn't have much affection for the old man. As soon as she was born, old man Shen urged her mother to have a second child and a son, and he ignored her for so many years.

Later, Shen's father cheated on his wife, and Fang Ya gave birth to Shen You before her mother died. The old man not only did not think they were shameless, but also praised Shen's father for doing the right thing.

Fortunately, Old Man Shen did not live in Haicheng. In the past, she only had to visit him during the holidays. Since she went abroad, she had not seen him for several years.

Shen Congyu subconsciously didn’t want to see him, “You said I was busy with work, so you disappeared.”

Shen You: "No, he called and mentioned you specifically, saying he hadn't seen you for a long time. Since you've returned to Haicheng, how could you not see him? He finally came here, and if you don't come to see him, those people in the Shen family will criticize you again."

"What time? Let me check the time."

Shen You quickly counted the number and said, "Sister, you must come back, otherwise the old man will be unhappy and might cause trouble for you."

Chen Congyu thought so too. It would be better to solve the problem by meeting him once, than to have that old man grumbling behind him again.

She said coldly, "I know."
