Chapter 126 Too Difficult
Chen Congyu took good care of Jiang Xilin in Jinghu Lake for a whole day.
His fever was not high, and he took medicine in time, so it did not recur throughout the day. By the evening, the fever had subsided before Shen Congyu left.
Only then did she mention it to Jiang Xilin: "I'll go back later, is that okay?"
Jiang Xilin sat on the sofa. He had been at home all day. Even though he was sick, he still had a lot of work to deal with. Except for the one-hour nap at noon, he hadn't slept since then.
The whites of his eyes were slightly bloodshot, and after Shen Congyu spoke, he looked away from the computer.
Out of her instinctive reaction when facing him, Chen Congyu added for herself: "I didn't get enough rest last night, and I still have work to do tomorrow, so I want to go back to bed early. Is there anything else you need me to do?"
Jiang Xilin looked at her gentle face and said, "No more."
"Then I'm leaving."
She said she could leave right away.
Jiang Xilin said indifferently: "Join me for a dinner party tomorrow night."
"Me?" She didn't want to go.
Wherever he took her, she would either worry about how to reasonably explain their relationship, or worry about whether he would ask her to do this or that like last time.
Jiang Xilin: "Is there anyone else here?"
Chen Congyu gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I understand."
She left quickly, fearing that Jiang Xilin might think of something else. She closed the door and breathed in the air in the yard, which was filled with the faint fragrance of flowers and plants. She sniffed it several times before suppressing the depression in her heart.
After more than 20 years, she is only now so considerate and caring in front of Jiang Xilin, and she herself is almost not used to it.
I dare not think that after such a long time, she might have really been trained by Jiang Xilin to be a "nanny-type" lover.
As soon as he returned to his residence, Chen Congyu went straight into the bathroom to take a shower, then lay down on the bed and went to bed early.
She had to work overtime the next day during the holiday. Although she didn't have to go to the magazine, she still had work to do. Thinking of meeting Jiang Xilin in the evening, she speeded up the work and called Wen Song to complain about Jiang Xilin.
Putting her cell phone aside, she chatted with Wen Song from time to time, and only when she talked about Jiang Xilin did she talk more.
Wen Song listened to the sound of her typing on the keyboard and felt that she was not only being exploited by her work, but also by Jiang Xilin. It was really too hard.
She said, "Didn't Ruirui say Jiang Xilin was getting engaged? Is there any confirmed news?"
Chen Congyu: "No, I can't find anyone other than Ruirui who can inquire about this information."
Those are the people around Jiang Xilin.
"I'll help you find out. Then you can take the opportunity to break up with him. It would be great if he agrees. If not, you can cause trouble when he's engaged."
Chen Congyu took the time to think about it, and soon came up with an answer, "What's the matter? Unless I don't want to live a good life."
Although she is dissatisfied now, she really doesn't dare to fight Jiang Xilin to the point of life and death.
Jiang Xilin was so vindictive. If she cheated him again, she would have to hide in the plateau, and it would be highly likely that she would not be able to do what she wanted.
"If you have the chance, separate them."
Wen Song suddenly released a bomb.
Chen Congyu took a breath, and the words of refusal were on the tip of her tongue, but Wen Song said again: "You two are often together, if you seduce him again, maybe you can get him again."
"This move is too risky. It's even scarier than what you said before."
"How will you know if you don't try?"
Chen Congyu sighed and said, "You know that he and Duan Ke are not only in a relationship, but also friends and partners. This kind of relationship is very stable. How could I have the ability to pry him away?"
Wen Song is usually cheerful and has come into contact with many different kinds of people. She has seen too many kinds of relationships, so she doesn't think it is difficult.
She had a new idea. "If you don't steal them, you can let them have their own conflicts. Anyway, you are often by Jiang Xilin's side now. Think about it, if you don't show up, there will be no way for them to quarrel, right?"
This operation was too complicated, and Shen Congyu's brain hadn't thought about it too much for the time being. She pressed her solar plexus with a headache, "Let me deal with it today first."
"Anyway, you can think about the method I mentioned. Either he helps you and you can separate them, or if he's only focused on his girlfriend, he might be annoyed by what you've done and not want to be entangled with you anymore."
Chen Congyu stared at the computer screen in a daze, and Wen Song's words gradually faded away in the silence.
At night, Chen Congyu put on light makeup and wore casual clothes, waiting downstairs for Yuan An's car.
Jiang Xilin was in the back seat. When Shen Congyu saw him, he thought of what Wen Song had said in the afternoon.
If she hadn't forced him to divorce and dumped him, it shouldn't be a problem for her to get him back now.
The difficulty lies in the fact that she has a criminal record.
Shen Congyu looked for too long, and Jiang Xilin looked at her. She was shocked and got into the car without delay.
Today, he no longer had the faint air of sickness he had yesterday. He was dressed simply and slightly formally. His looks didn't need fancy clothes; too much would make him look vulgar. The cool colors only served to highlight his delicate features, making them clearer and cleaner.
Chen Congyu put her hands on her knees, thinking that Jiang Xilin probably wouldn't tell her if she asked, so she simply kept silent.
The car was too quiet, except for her, and the two of them looked very used to it.
Chen Congyu had never been to the place where they had dinner this time, but it had nothing to do with her. She was just a foil and all she had to do was follow.
When I entered the private room, the only person inside was Mr. Yang, whom I had met last time.
The room is not too big, but it is exquisite, and you can tell that the quality of the place is very high.
But Shen Congyu lost her mood after seeing this Mr. Yang. She secretly went to see Jiang Xilin, feeling a little uneasy.
Mr. Yang greeted Jiang Xilin, and then his eyes fell on Shen Congyu's face, which was much more direct and straightforward than last time.
Chen Congyu endured the discomfort and exchanged pleasantries with him.
Then the three of them took their seats, Shen Congyu sat next to Jiang Xilin, and Mr. Yang sat opposite them.
When the red wine was brought up, Chen Congyu was distracted by the thought that Jiang Xilin had just taken medicine yesterday and could not drink alcohol today.
The smile on her lips froze, and she suddenly seemed to understand the purpose of Jiang Xilin bringing her here today.
She hesitated for a moment, then consciously extended her hand and said to Mr. Yang, "Our boss was sick yesterday and couldn't drink. I'll drink with you on his behalf tonight."
Mr. Yang did not hesitate and nodded happily in agreement.
Shen Congyu poured wine into the glass in her hand and sat down. Jiang Xilin and Mr. Yang nodded and glanced at her.
She had only seen him when she first came in, and had not looked at him again. Now when drinking, she was even more sensible. When it was her turn to "come forward" to drink, she would step forward.
