Chapter 116 Be Honest
"When did you think of becoming a matchmaker?"
Jiang Xilin said this to Duan Ke, but Shen Congyu's heart still hung in the air as he spoke.
She couldn't help but look across, and Jiang Xilin glanced at her indifferently.
Duan Ke said: "As a friend, I certainly hope that it can work out. It would be double happiness."
She put her hand on Jiang Xilin's arm and asked him, "What do you think?"
Now everyone's attention shifted to Jiang Xilin.
Yan Zhao seemed to be enjoying the show.
Hu Zi was looking forward to it.
Chen Congyu could watch his reaction openly like everyone else at this moment, but only she knew that her palms were oozing with sweat.
Rather than emotions like anticipation or nervousness, Chen Congyu wanted to catch whether he had an unhappy reaction, which would determine whether he would come to settle the score with her later.
Although there was a high probability that she couldn't escape, after all, she was still flirting with his friend right under his nose.
For a moment, Chen Congyu wondered, if Jiang Xilin saw that Hu Zi was sincere, would he fulfill his wish?
Unfortunately, this idea was too weak, so weak that Chen Congyu didn't even have much confidence in her fantasy.
Jiang Xilin said, "It's up to them to decide what to do. But does Zhenzhen know?"
Duan Ke: "Don't worry, Zhenzhen will never act like she did before when she sees Miss Chen again. I told her that we are friends, and she should call me sister."
Among the people at this table, probably only Xiaoxing, who is unaware of the situation, and Hu Zi, who has a simple mind, would believe what she said.
Hu Zi was quite happy. "Really? That's great. I was just worried about Zhenzhen. I was afraid that she would embarrass Sister Cong Yu again. I don't want to see that kind of scene. Since Sister Ke, you and Zhenzhen have told me about it, then I can rest assured to ask Sister Cong Yu out together in the future."
As for what Jiang Xilin said to him that time, he had now forgotten it.
Duan Ke's palm was still on Jiang Xilin's arm, and she said with a smile: "Yes, I hope that when you are together with Miss Shen, you can treat me to a meal."
Hu Zi was about to nod in agreement when Chen Congyu raised the corner of his mouth, his smile a little pale, "Okay, let's not talk about our business anymore, let's talk about something else."
Hu Zi followed suit and began to help Chen Congyu pour water and get tissues.
Despite this, Shen Congyu still couldn't fit in with the atmosphere behind.
Their daily conversations were harmonious. Jiang Xilin spoke little, and with Xiaoxing and Huzi around, the atmosphere was quite relaxed.
Except when asked directly, Shen Congyu hardly spoke at other times.
Later, she received a call from a colleague who wanted to verify some information with her. She took this opportunity to leave the table and take a breath.
After finishing the call with her colleague, Shen Congyu went to the bathroom again. The sink here was in the middle of the men's and women's bathrooms. She stood in front of the mirror and washed her hands, her thoughts gradually drifting away with the water.
It was too tiring to get too close to the people around Jiang Xilin. The main reason was the shady relationship between her and Jiang Xilin, which made her feel uneasy and unable to speak with confidence.
But Jiang Xilin can remain calm and composed.
To reach his level, Chen Congyu knew that she was not yet ready.
The running water washed away the warmth in her palms. Just then, Chen Congyu was about to turn off the water, but a hand reached out before her and turned off the water.
Shen Congyu looked up and saw Jiang Xilin's all-too-familiar face in the mirror.
She was leaving immediately.
Jiang Xilin stopped her slowly.
"Tell me, how long has this been going on with Hu Zi?"
Seeing that he was about to settle the score, Shen Congyu couldn't calm down. This place was really not safe.
She spoke softly, trying to coax him into a better place and said, "Someone will come. I'll explain it to you later, okay?"
Jiang Xilin stood still, showing his attitude.
He even moved closer to her, pressing his knee between her legs, "Just say it right here."
"It's hard to explain it in a few words," Chen Congyu leaned her lower back against the hard, cold edge of the sink, "I will definitely tell you, don't be angry first."
"If I hadn't come today, I don't know if you would have taken the initiative to tell me?" Chen Congyu: "I was afraid that you would be unhappy."
Jiang Xilin chuckled: "You still do it even though you know it?"
He held her chin with his hand and asked her to lift her face to face him. "What are you thinking about, huh?"
"No, let me go first, someone will really come..."
There was panic and anxiety in Shen Congyu's voice.
"You've found a new love right under my nose, and you don't seem worried."
The warmth in his eyes was very cold. Compared to anger, the unhappiness that enveloped people like flowing water was suffocating.
Chen Congyu's eyelashes trembled pitifully, still denying, "No, I didn't."
Jiang Xilin suddenly pressed her down and kissed her.
She was stunned at first, then realized where this place was and what would happen if any of them saw her. Without thinking, she wanted to hide and pushed him away.
However, the more she resisted, the stronger Jiang Xilin restrained her, and even bit her so hard that it caused her to feel pain.
After tasting the blood, Shen Congyu's resistance reached its peak. She groped and stepped on him hard. When he didn't move away, she was about to kick his calf.
Jiang Xilin let her go. She suppressed her emotions and growled, "You knew they were all here, and that there was a risk of them coming over at any time, yet you still did this? Do you want to kill me?"
Chen Congyu was so angry that she wanted to push him away.
Jiang Xilin remained indifferent and said coldly, "If you are so scared, why don't you behave yourself?"
"I didn't do anything!"
"Really? You're going to wait until Hu Zi treats everyone to dinner before you admit it?"
Chen Congyu's face was pale, but her lips were red, and there was a bite mark on them. She couldn't control her tears as she spoke.
The whole person looks angry and pitiful.
"I didn't intend to agree to him at all. I just wanted to get in touch with him. I didn't give him that kind of intention. Can't I just treat it as making friends?"
Jiang Xilin said, "We've known each other for a few months, and now is the time to make friends? I don't mean to do that. Why didn't you dare to say it when I asked you last night?"
Chen Congyu: "Because there is nothing special, I didn't say it."
She looked really unhappy, and Jiang Xilin said, "Your acting has been getting better recently."
Shen Congyu was so angry that she was furious and raised her hand to hit him.
Jiang Xilin pinched her arm, "Do you want me to be more straightforward? You include his image in every post on your Moments. Do you think I can't see it, or do you want to show it to him secretly and hint to him?"
Being stopped so easily by him, Shen Congyu's eyes turned red with anger.
"I said I didn't mean that. I didn't even notice the photo. You saw it yesterday, didn't you? You deliberately didn't say anything."
"I just want to see how long you can keep this secret," Jiang Xilin said ruthlessly, "In fact, if you find someone else, I won't see you. If you want to hook up with a rich guy, why don't you go far away?"
