Chapter 120 Unstable
Xue Mingrui said: "I'm not sure whether it has been put on the agenda. At least that's what I heard. If it has been discussed, does that mean it will be finalized if nothing unexpected happens?"
Her thoughts were simple. If Jiang Xilin was really engaged to Duan Ke, she would not force Shen Congyu to do anything.
Chen Congyu had the same thought for a moment, but soon she was no longer sure.
What if Jiang Xilin refuses to follow the rules and still thinks there's nothing wrong with getting engaged?
She can't afford to gamble.
Chen Congyu said: "They have been together for so long, their relationship is fine, and engagement is a matter of time. But I still need you to trouble me about this matter, so please help me pay more attention to them."
"No problem, I would have noticed it even if you didn't tell me." Xue Mingrui thought, "Sister Cong Yu, why don't you talk to Brother Jiang about it and resolve it in advance to avoid any trouble later."
Chen Congyu refused, "You told me this news secretly. If he knew about it, I would be wrong."
Given Jiang Xilin's personality, he would think that she was eager to get rid of him just based on some rumors.
It’s not safe to mention it now.
After parting with Xue Mingrui, Chen Congyu got in the car and was lost in thought as he thought about what had just happened.
I don’t know when the news of Jiang Xilin and Duan Ke’s engagement will be confirmed. By then, it will definitely be impossible to keep it secret. She can only propose it by then, at the latest.
…
There was no change in Jiang Xilin's behavior. At least it didn't seem like he and Duan Ke had any plans to get engaged in private.
He still asked Shen Congyu to find him, but not to No. 118 Jinghu, but to his own hotel, where she had worked before.
As Qingming Festival approaches, Haicheng has been cloudy and rainy recently. The temperature is not as low as before, but the air is still cool after the rain.
Chen Congyu got out of the car, wrapped her coat tightly against the wind, and pressed the hair blowing around her ears behind her ears.
Yuan An was standing at the door of the restaurant waiting for her. When he saw her, he said without any extra words: "Let's go, Brother Jiang is already waiting."
Jiang Xilin hadn't told her what he wanted her to do before. Chen Congyu wanted to ask Yuan An why he asked her to come, but when the words came to her lips, she thought about how good his relationship with Jiang Xilin was. If Jiang Xilin didn't tell her, then Yuan An probably wouldn't tell her either.
Fortunately, they soon arrived outside the private room. Yuan An pushed the door open and went in with Chen Congyu one after the other.
There were not many people. Besides Jiang Xilin, there were three men and a very young woman who looked like a secretary judging by her dress.
When Chen Congyu entered, the female secretary stood up and said, "Boss Jiang said you play the piano very well. Our CEO Yang doesn't have many hobbies, he just likes to listen to live performances. Since you're here, let's get ready quickly."
Chen Congyu reacted quickly. There was a piano placed in the corner of the private room. Almost every room here had such a configuration. Chen Congyu was not unfamiliar with it.
The only thing that surprised her was that Jiang Xilin asked her to come here to do this.
The other men's eyes lingered on her more or less. Although they were not too explicit, she had seen it a lot.
It means to look at something and to show interest, but it definitely does not mean anything good.
I don't know what this kind of person does in private, but he tries to create an elegant image for himself in public.
Chen Congyu clenched her fists and glanced at Jiang Xilin. He was sitting right opposite the piano, and she could meet his gaze without any effort.
At this moment, he didn't say much, and even the look in his eyes when he met hers was calm.
Compared with the other people present, he seemed to have come to the wrong place and was out of tune with them, but he also had an aura of being in control of the overall situation.
Seeing that she didn't move, he raised his chin slightly, his attitude arrogant, "Not going yet? What are you waiting for?"
In front of other people, Chen Congyu knew the seriousness of the matter and swallowed back what she wanted to say. She walked to the piano and sat down.
Her role today is the same as it was a few months ago, a service provider with no say. To put it bluntly, she is just a waiter, but others have to serve tea and water, while she just has to listen to the conductor and play music.
Not much better.
Throughout the entire dinner, Chen Congyu didn't rest for long. It was like the background music of the scene, just like a CD.
Later on, Chen Congyu was particularly curious about what Jiang Xilin was going to do.
After they finished, Mr. Yang said a few words in the secretary's ear, and then the female secretary walked towards Shen Congyu.
She handed Chen Congyu a business card and said, "Our General Manager Yang said that you play well. You can go to General Manager Yang's place to play the piano more often in the future."
Shen Congyu was still sitting. She looked up at the other party. Even though the female secretary's tone was normal and her wording was fine, Shen Congyu could still see her thoughts from her eyes.
She felt that she was just an object that could be called upon at any time for money to satisfy Mr. Yang.
As for what exactly it satisfies, that is not certain.
The business card was still in front of Shen Congyu, but she didn't take it and said, "Sorry, this is not my job."
"Mr. Yang's salary is not low."
"So what's wrong?"
Chen Congyu suddenly acted like she had a very low EQ and pretended not to understand.
The secretary took a deep breath and was about to speak bluntly when Yuan An appeared behind her. "She is my friend. She is just here to help tonight."
The female secretary knew Yuan An's identity. She looked at Yuan An, then at Chen Congyu, and took back the business card. "Okay, I understand."
She returned to Mr. Yang and reported the situation here. Shen Congyu saw Mr. Yang turn his head to look at her, but she had no expression on her face and pretended not to see it.
They soon dispersed, and Chen Congyu and Yuan An walked behind. Chen Congyu couldn't help but ask him: "What does Jiang Xilin mean today?"
Original: "No other meaning."
"No? Does he think I'm just a part-time worker who works everywhere and can come at any time?" Then he still pays me a salary.
The original man glanced ahead and said, "No."
Chen Congyu asked, "What does that mean?"
Yuan An had no idea what Jiang Xilin was thinking. Even if he knew, he couldn't tell Shen Congyu.
He avoided talking about it.
Chen Congyu had no choice but to wait until everyone left. She got into their car very skillfully and said to Yuan An, "You have to take me home, right?"
Yuan An nodded.
He was driving, and Shen Congyu was sitting next to Jiang Xilin. He was looking at his phone and seemed to be dealing with something. As soon as he put down his phone, Shen Congyu immediately found an opportunity to speak.
"Why did you suddenly call me over tonight?"
Jiang Xilin looked at her and said, "Isn't it over? Why are you still asking why?"
Chen Congyu: "Just to let me play the piano?"
She doesn't believe it.
"How many employees in your own hotel can play the piano? Do you still need me to do it?"
Jiang Xilin: "Why, can't I tell you to do something?"
Chen Congyu swallowed a breath, "...Of course, it's okay, but do you know if that Mr. Yang wants to find me again in the future?"
"You can refuse."
"What if the original case doesn't speak up for me and I can't refuse?"
Chen Congyu is resentful.
