Chapter 114 Circle of Friends
Zhou Zhou was scratching his head and was extremely alert, afraid that he would miss the important information from Yan Zhao and Jiang Xilin.
But he still felt that something was missing. When did they talk about the relationship between Shen Congyu and Jiang Xilin?
Yan Zhao said: "It's quite sudden. I haven't heard that Hu Zi likes Chen Congyu before."
Jiang Xilin remembered that he had reminded Hu Zi a long time ago, and since then Hu Zi and Shen Congyu had rarely met. Last time, Hu Zi told Duan Zhen that he had no thoughts about Shen Congyu.
So this time it was really sudden.
He glanced at Zhou Zhou's focused expression and continued to say to Yan Zhao, "It's just a meal, there's no need to be so speculative."
"No, Brother Jiang, can you tell me first, what did I miss?" Zhou Zhou asked impatiently.
Yan Zhao joked: "Children shouldn't be curious about adult matters."
Zhou Zhou was unhappy. "In that case, I won't help you again."
Jiang Xilin wasn't as relaxed as the other two. He had a meeting in a few minutes. He said quickly, "You'll know later. Then he hung up."
Yan Zhao put away his phone, and Zhou Zhou next to him asked, "Brother, tell me a little first. How about this, I'll guess, and you just have to answer yes or no."
"you say."
"Are Brother Jiang and Chen Congyu boyfriend and girlfriend?"
Yan Zhao: “No.”
Zhou Zhou raised an eyebrow: "Dating friends?"
“It’s not quite right.”
Zhou Zhou: "What is that?"
Yan Zhao looked at him without saying anything.
"OK, let me change the question." Zhou Zhou took a deep breath, recalled various clues in his mind, and asked, "Brother Jiang and Sister Duan Ke broke up?"
Yan Zhao paused for a few seconds, "No."
"You hesitated! You lied to me!"
Yan Zhao said, "Xilin hasn't made it public yet. Do you think I should keep it a secret for him?"
Zhou Zhou began to think divergently: "That means they broke up but for some reason they didn't make it public. No one else knew about it, including Chen Congyu. Then how did she agree to be with Brother Jiang? Judging from her attitude towards Brother Jiang, it doesn't seem like they have any feelings for each other."
"This isn't something you can just guess about right now," Yan Zhao reminded him as he started the car. "If you leak it out first and ruin Xilin's business, I won't be able to help you."
Although Zhou Zhou is very curious, he still has good qualities.
"That's it, brother. You only tell half the story. I really can't sleep at night."
Yan Zhao: "I couldn't sleep, so I went out to work."
Zhou Zhou put his hands behind his head and said, "Brother, you are too mean. If you tell Brother Jiang about what happened to Hu Zi today, then Hu Zi will be gone. And as for Chen Congyu, Brother Jiang will definitely make trouble for her."
Yan Zhao had no intention of reporting her behind her back. He smiled and said, "That's what she deserves."
…
After Chen Congyu and Hu Zi finished their meal and returned home, she wondered whether Yan Zhao or Zhou Zhou would tell Jiang Xilin about this. She was nervous for the rest of the day, afraid that Jiang Xilin would come and question her.
If it were any other man, being caught at a meal wouldn't mean anything, but Hu Zi had already expressed that intention before, and even if it was just a small gesture, Jiang Xilin knew it. It was hard for her to explain.
A man's bad possessiveness, especially when it comes to Jiang Xilin.
Chen Congyu was really a little worried.
Fortunately, he was probably really busy and couldn't take care of her affairs, so after a few days, not only did she not come to question him, she didn't even say a word to her.
Chen Congyu felt relieved and met with Hu Zi more frequently.
Hu Zi invited her to go camping, and the arrangements were thoughtful. She had a very relaxing time without so many messy people and things. After being busy with work for a while, she went out to relax and her mood became much better.
Chen Congyu also took some photos and posted them on WeChat Moments along the way.
I didn't take any special photos of people, just some scenery photos.
Hu Zi was the first to give her a thumbs up.
He then posted two photos, one of the campsite, and the other of a few people barbecuing at night. There was no face in the photo, but it could be seen that the person closest to him was a woman.
It’s Chen Congyu.
When Chen Congyu saw it, she was worried that it might be bad, but then she thought about it, the content of Hu Zi's circle of friends did not overlap with hers, and only her hand holding the iron skewer and her pants were photographed. If she didn't know in advance, she would not guess that it was related to her.
So Chen Congyu left the photo and ignored it, nor did he like it.
She put down her phone, packed up and went downstairs to take a shower. The hot shower washed away the physical fatigue of the past two days. She wrapped herself in a bath towel, hummed a song and went to the kitchen to get some water to drink.
There was a knock on the door at this time.
Chen Congyu didn't think much about it and went to look through the cat's eye. When she saw that it was Jiang Xilin, whom she hadn't seen for a while, something in her mind was suddenly set right.
She clenched the cup in her hand, trying to pretend she wasn't home.
Jiang Xilin knocked on the door again, as if he knew someone must be home.
There was no way, Shen Congyu still opened the door.
She made room very naturally. "Why did you come here so suddenly? I just finished taking a shower and didn't hear you knocking on the door."
The sensor light in the corridor outside was probably broken. The light was dim and flickering. Jiang Xilin was facing away from the light, so it was difficult to see his expression.
Chen Congyu could only discern his emotions from the tone of his voice.
"On the way."
Just two words, Shen Congyu didn't have time to analyze it, Jiang Xilin squeezed into the entrance.
The distance was suddenly very close. Chen Congyu grabbed the towel on her chest and said faster than her feet: "I'll go put on my pajamas first."
Jiang Xilin held her arm and his body pressed against her back.
The temperature from Chen Congyu's hot bath had not yet completely dissipated, and her body was warm, with the gentle and delicate fragrance of body lotion.
Sensing the coolness of his coat on his back, Shen Congyu instantly felt something was wrong.
Just as she was about to find an excuse to leave, Jiang Xilin lifted her up from behind her waist.
One of the slippers fell to the ground.
The other fell beside the bed.
Chen Congyu pressed his shoulders in time and told him to take a shower.
Jiang Xilin took off his coat and said, "It's not too late to wash it later."
Chen Congyu wanted to ask how it was possible, and then she understood what he meant from his actions.
She had just taken a shower.
The body is clean.
Not even ten minutes wasted.
But in the end, Chen Congyu's bath was in vain.
They all have the scent of Jiang Xilin.
Then I went into the bathroom with him and washed again.
Chen Congyu didn't understand what he meant, and she didn't have the chance to ask clearly.
In short, it's quite torturous.
After the meeting, Jiang Xilin asked her, "Where have you been these past two days?"
Chen Congyu closed his eyes and said, "Let's go camping."
"Is it fun?"
"After working for so long, it would be nice to go out and relax."
Chen Congyu opened his eyes, wanting to see what he meant by asking this question.
Jiang Xilin put his hand over her eyes, blocking her sight.
"It looks like it's quite fun. It's been a while since you last looked for me."
Chen Congyu was confused, "Aren't you busy? How dare I disturb you."
