Chapter 443: There is a catch
Jiang Yuxu was usually known for his composure. At least in the two years of their collaboration, Lin Di had never seen him with such a puzzled expression. He always seemed to have everything under control.
Lindy said nothing and observed more carefully.
She was about to speak to Jiang Yuxu to break the silence, but Jiang Yuxu had already spoken: "I'm coming."
It seemed that these words were spoken to the two of them, but Lin Di felt that she was probably just a bystander, and Jiang Lu was mainly talking to Qing Gong.
But Gui Qing ignored him, took out her cell phone from her bag, glanced down, and walked around him into the banquet hall.
Jiang Yuxu frowned slightly, and the confusion on his face became more obvious.
Not to mention Jiang Yuxu, Lin Di was also confused. What was going on? Wasn't Gui Qing watching Jiang Yuxu's court trial live this morning and very happy? How come when he saw him in person in the evening, he was silent.
He even ignored him in front of a third person. How disrespectful!
Did the two of them have a fight on WeChat? But judging by Jiang Yuxu's expression, it didn't seem like it.
"Lawyer Jiang, congratulations on your victory in the lawsuit. We watched the live broadcast today, it was so cool." Lin Di gave a thumbs up and praised Jiang Yuxu to ease the slightly awkward atmosphere.
Jiang Yuxu said "thank you" to her and said, "Come in and sit down."
"Okay, Lawyer Jiang, I'll go first." Lin Di quickly ran away.
Jiang Yuxu stopped where he was, thinking of Gui Qing's reaction just now, and immediately took out his cell phone.
Today, the two of them only had a brief chat during lunch break. Jiang Yuxu read the chat history three or four times but didn't find anything wrong.
Gui Qing even praised him for his awareness.
What went wrong? He was fine at noon, but now he ignores me, just like he did a while ago. He doesn't even reply when I talk to him, just ignores me.
Jiang Yuxu felt uncomfortable whenever he recalled that time. He lost his temper and typed a string of words into the dialog box: [Why didn't you talk to me just now? How did I make you angry?]
Just before sending it, he felt that this way of asking questions seemed too blunt.
How should I ask?
When Jiang Yuxu was in trouble, Zhan Mo also came over.
He stopped with the gift in his hand and patted Jiang Yuxu on the shoulder. "Congratulations, you won a great victory today. Here, a watch."
Jiang Yuxu took it and said "thank you" without much interest.
Zhan Mo: "What's going on? You're still not in a good mood even though you won the lawsuit?"
Jiang Yuxu shook his head and told him directly: "She suddenly stopped talking to me."
"Who? Qinggong?" Zhan Mo was curious, "Aren't you two still..."
Jiang Yuxu: "He was fine when we were chatting on WeChat this afternoon, but just now he came over and ignored me and didn't even look at me."
"What were you two talking about? Let me see." Zhan Mo glanced at Jiang Yuxu's phone.
Jiang Yuxu didn't block him and showed him the chat records from noon.
They didn't chat for long and Zhan Mo finished reading it quickly.
"I really didn't find any problems." Zhan Mo touched his chin, "Is this all you said today?"
Jiang Yuxu nodded, "So I don't know why she was angry."
Zhan Mo raised his hand and tapped the screen of his mobile phone. He deleted the sentence that Jiang Yuxu had just typed into the dialog box and typed in a new one.
[Are you feeling unwell? You don't look well.]
Type, send, done.
Jiang Yuxu stared at the message sent by Zhan Mo, and had to say, it was much more comfortable than the one he had just sent.
"Well, it still has to be me, right?" Zhan Mo also gave Jiang Yuxu a few pointers. "There's something wrong with the way you asked her just now. You started by asking her why she ignored you. That's interrogation, and then you followed it up with a question about how you made her angry. From her perspective, you think she's always angry and ignoring people, so your question will only make her angrier."
Jiang Yuxu felt a headache. "She was already angry. I just wanted to find out why."
If you weren't angry, why would you not talk to him and ignore him?
"Lawyer Jiang, a relationship between a man and a woman is not a lawsuit. If you want to find out the reason, you don't need to ask so directly. Look at what I said just now. I also cared about her health. She also understood the hidden meaning." Zhan Mo said seriously, "Sometimes you can't say it too directly. You have to be roundabout. Do you understand?"
Jiang Yuxu nodded thoughtfully. What Zhan Mo said did make sense.
However, achieving this is a bit challenging for him at the moment, and there is a lot to learn.
"I still don't quite understand it. I'll consult you if I have any questions in the future," said Jiang Yuxu.
Zhan Mo: "Okay, no problem. I'll go in first and ask you about the situation."
Jiang Yuxu saw Zhan Mo off and stood at the door for a while. When everyone arrived, they went in together.
During this process, he kept looking at his phone, waiting for Gui Qing's reply.
But she didn't react at all.
After Jiang Yuxu entered the banquet hall, he subconsciously glanced at Gui Qing. She was sitting and chatting with her colleagues from NV. She had the same smile on her face as usual and didn't look like she was feeling unwell or in a bad mood.
Jiang Yuxu looked at his phone again, but still no reply.
So he was certain that Gui Qing's anger was directed at him alone.
What is the reason?
…
Due to Jiang Yuxu's personal habits, he generally does not drink alcohol at law firm gatherings. Even if he does, it is low-alcohol beer and red wine.
As the protagonist of the celebration banquet, Jiang Yuxu also drank tea when he toasted at each table. Everyone was used to it.
Today we are all internal staff, the atmosphere is very good, everyone enjoys eating and having fun.
After almost finishing the meal, Gui Qing got up and went to the bathroom.
At that time, Jiang Yuxu was pouring tea.
Zhan Mo immediately came to Jiang Yuxu and informed him, patting his arm and saying, "Hurry up, Qinggong has gone to the west bathroom. Follow him and ask."
Jiang Yuxu immediately stopped and walked towards the bathroom.
This scene happened to be seen by Lindy.
She was almost certain that Jiang Yuxu had chased Gui Qing out.
Lindy had the urge to follow and eat a piece of melon, but then he thought it was inappropriate, so he took a sip of juice and resisted the urge to go.
Although I can’t eat the melon for the time being, it’s not completely a waste of time tonight.
At least she was certain that Jiang Lu and Qing Gong must have some unknown secrets in private, and it was not "unfamiliarity" as Qing Gong said.
Jiang Lu seemed quite proactive today, while Qing Gong was rather indifferent.
So it was Jiang Lu who was pursuing her...
That's hanging in the balance.
I heard that Jiang Yuxu doesn't have much experience in love, but Gui Qing is famous for her rich experience. The boyfriends she dated before... to be honest, they were not of the same type as Jiang Yuxu.
Lin Di felt that Jiang Yuxu might not be Gui Qing's type.
Now there's something to chase.
…
Jiang Yuxu stood at the door of the women's restroom and waited for five or six minutes.
After hearing the sound of high heels, he immediately tensed his shoulders and walked to the door.
Seeing the familiar figure, he stood in front of her without saying a word.
