Chapter 139 Are You Okay?
"My mother has only recently recovered from surgery. She's most concerned about my situation. If I tell her we've broken up now, she definitely won't be able to accept it."
This was the reason Duan Ke gave. She paused and continued, "So, for her health, let's maintain this state for the time being."
Duan Ke observed Jiang Xilin's reaction without blinking, and quickly added: "Is it okay?"
Jiang Xilin had just finished a meeting. He was dressed neatly and meticulously, and looked particularly distant.
"Of course, I hope everything can work out between us."
Having said that, he looked as calm and indifferent as when he was talking about work with Duan Ke.
Duan Ke nodded. "I've thought about it. You've helped me a lot over the past few years. If we can't be lovers, at least we can be friends. I don't want us to have an ugly quarrel."
The assistant came in and poured tea for the two of them. Duan Ke changed the subject, took a sip of tea, and kept his eyes on Jiang Xilin almost the entire time.
Jiang Xilin casually asked, "Where's your sister?"
"I've explained it to her. She's just like that, but she knows what's important."
After the assistant left, Duan Ke said to Jiang Xilin with a hint of weakness, "But I have only one concern."
"you say."
Duan Ke: "If we ever run into Miss Shen again in the future, I hope you'll be more considerate of my appearance. Otherwise, it will be hard for me to explain to outsiders."
Jiang Xilin answered her without much hesitation, "Don't worry, you are you and she is she."
Duan Ke responded.
The matter is settled.
She never thought that one day she would be able to talk about her significant other and the third person so calmly.
In the past, she would have thought it was ridiculous, but now she could only swallow her anger.
…
When Wen Song pushed Zhou Yuye's WeChat over, Chen Congyu almost forgot about it.
She added the other person as a friend, but just like last time, there was no response. She was not in a hurry and continued to do what she was doing.
Two days later, Zhou Yu also added her.
Chen Congyu sent him a message in the afternoon, identifying herself and mentioning the matter of the clothes: "Mr. Zhou, thank you for lending me the clothes. I'll send them to you when you're free."
Zhou Yu also sent the location of his company, [Just put it on the front desk. ]
Chen Congyu agreed verbally, but still found a chance to send it over in person. She waited at the door for a while, and when she saw a few people parked their cars across the street, she stepped in.
After registering his name, Chen Congyu handed his clothes to the front desk and then used the restroom.
Probably because the clothes belonged to Zhou Yuye, the front desk staff was very accommodating to her using the restroom.
When Chen Congyu came out again, there was a commotion in the hall. The two men in the lead were stopped by security and clamored to see Zhou Yuye. Someone in charge, who was not sure what, was trying to persuade them: "We're already discussing the factory matter. Didn't you promise to give us two more days to deal with it? If it gets out of hand, it won't be good for anyone."
"It's said to be two days, and we won't come to argue. I'm afraid you can delay it as much as possible! Anyway, we must see your vice president today!"
The vice president he was talking about was not Zhou Yu.
It seems that this is not the first time these two groups have dealt with each other. No matter what they say, they cannot suppress their restlessness, and there is even a tendency for the situation to get worse and worse.
Chen Congyu saw that the elevator had reached the second floor and was still descending. She walked towards the group of people, but did not approach them. Instead, she went to the front desk at the back to ask about the situation.
Before they could say a few words, the elevator door opened and Zhou Yu and a few others walked out.
Seeing this, the two people who were leading the trouble rushed forward with the others.
The people behind Zhou Yu also stepped forward to block and tried to communicate with the other party.
Amidst the noise, Chen Congyu saw the troublemaker take out a folding baton.
Her heartbeat almost drowned out the other sounds in her ears. Her footsteps gradually approached. She watched the baton fly out, and while no one else noticed the movement in the corner, she took several steps at a time and rushed forward -
The timing was just right. She raised her arm to block the disaster that was coming to Zhou Yuye, and the heavy baton fell to the ground.
It fell at her feet and she almost stepped on it and slipped. Someone next to her reached out and held her arm, helping her to stand steady.
Chen Congyu's other arm hung limply at her side, and she bent down slightly because of the pain.
Zhou Yu also saw what had just happened. With a cold face, he asked someone to call the police, then lowered his head and asked, "Are you okay?"
A thin layer of sweat oozed from the tip of Chen Congyu's nose. He shook his head, and the next second he covered his arm and took a breath.
Zhou Yu also took a look and handed the scene over to others, asking the police to handle it.
The other party wanted to cause trouble and force people to deal with the matter, and did not want to go to the police station. When they saw that someone was injured, they immediately quieted down.
After that, it was no longer something Shen Congyu cared about. Zhou Yu took her to the lounge nearby and called his assistant to arrange a car to go to the hospital.
Chen Congyu stood up and said, "Don't bother with that. My condition shouldn't be that serious."
Zhou Yu also put away his phone and insisted: "I'm sorry that you were injured, but you still need to go get checked out. If there are any problems, I will take full responsibility."
"Then...thank you."
"I should be the one thanking you, otherwise I would be the one injured now." Zhou Yu also saw the baton coming towards his face out of the corner of his eye. If Chen Congyu hadn't blocked it, he might have been able to dodge it, but if the timing was wrong, more than just his arm would have been injured.
Zhou Yu also asked Shen Congyu to sit down, took the water and placed it next to her, “Miss Shen, I didn’t expect you to come and deliver the clothes in person.”
Chen Congyu said cautiously: "I think that coat is quite expensive, and I was afraid of damaging it, so I went there myself. This place is not far from where I work."
Zhou Yu also nodded, "Thank you for your help."
There wasn't much tenderness in his expression, but Chen Congyu felt that his words were less cold.
The car was quickly arranged, and Zhou Yu asked his assistant to accompany Shen Congyu to the hospital.
However, he still said to Shen Congyu alone: "If you have any questions, remember to talk to my assistant. You can also contact me."
"good."
The car door closed, and the corners of Shen Congyu's mouth drooped.
It seems that Zhou Yu will not treat a woman differently if she rushes up to help him. At most, he will say a few more words and leave the rest to his assistant.
Chen Congyu didn't expect that he could become familiar with her so quickly, and it was okay like now.
It was worth it that when she was looking up Zhou Yuye's information online these days, she saw a post saying that someone in their company had been causing trouble recently.
Although the post was quickly deleted, Shen Congyu still made the right bet by coming here today.
Seeing that Shen Congyu had her eyes closed, the assistant thought she was not feeling well, and said something more, “Boss Zhou asked me to take you to the nearest hospital for a checkup, and they will be there soon.”
Chen Congyu opened her eyes and smiled faintly, but she looked a little pale, as if in pain, "Okay."
