Chapter 17 Are You Helpful?
Qi Ming definitely did it on purpose, Shen Congyu could see it.
She struggled to pull her arms back, but Qi Ming pinched her even harder and walked in front of Jiang Xilin.
"Mr. Jiang came quite early. Is it okay for me to borrow Cong Yu to keep me company today?"
Jiang Xilin came down from the last step, his eyelids drooping as he looked down at them, "I'm not so free as to have to control the whereabouts of an employee."
He was a little more formal today than usual, wearing a simple, neat shirt, and with his hair styled, revealing his entire face. He had a clean demeanor, yet was also very cold and aloof, almost icy and unapproachable.
Shen Congyu took one look and turned away.
Qi Ming acted as if he couldn't tell Jiang Xilin's attitude and continued to talk to him with a smile, "Where's Miss Duan? You two should be together on occasions like this."
Jiang Xilin: "She has something to do."
"You two have a really good relationship, it's been several years." Qi Ming turned to ask Chen Congyu, "You haven't been in the country for the past few years, so you don't know much about it?"
As soon as he said that, Shen Congyu's nerves became even more tense.
What does Qi Ming mean? Does he know something?
Chen Congyu kept an absolutely safe distance from Jiang Xilin in front of him and said, "I don't know. After all, it has nothing to do with me."
Her original intention was to distance herself from Jiang Xilin, so she said this.
Last time, Qi Ming had asked her some questions about Jiang Xilin. She didn't want Qi Ming to know, so she had to stay vigilant.
Qi Ming smiled and patted Shen Congyu's shoulder, "Haven't you two known each other for a long time? Why are you so cold?"
“I didn’t…” Shen Congyu wanted to glare at him, she clearly didn’t mean that.
Jiang Xilin watched the interaction between the two, smiled faintly, and his gaze stopped at Qi Ming's hand on Shen Congyu's shoulder.
Immediately afterwards, someone came to find Qi Ming and asked him to leave because he had something important to discuss with him.
He was about to leave, and Shen Congyu didn't want to face Jiang Xilin alone, so she subconsciously followed him.
As soon as she took a step forward, her shoulders were held down.
She turned around to look at Jiang Xilin, and without thinking, she stepped aside to keep some distance between them.
Jiang Xilin's hand was suspended in mid-air.
He withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened and asked her, "Are you so anxious to be around men?"
That's unpleasant to hear.
The attitude is also very bad.
Chen Congyu subconsciously wanted to deny it, but after thinking about it, he said, "I only know him and you here. If I don't look for him, who else can I look for?"
"Why did you come here knowing you didn't know me?"
Chen Congyu's heart paused.
He didn't want her to appear in such an occasion.
But she didn't want to come here in the first place.
Shen Congyu endured the depression in his heart and explained: “He asked me for help, I didn’t know he was coming here.”
Jiang Xilin: "Are you helpful?"
"I……"
As soon as Shen Congyu opened his mouth, a voice broke in.
Hu Zi walked over with sparkling eyes and greeted Chen Congyu, "Hello, you are here too, what are you talking about with Brother Jiang?"
Seeing the people they were with, Shen Congyu was very nervous and wanted to get rid of Jiang Xilin completely, but Hu Zi had already seen her talking to Jiang Xilin.
She stopped looking at Jiang Xilin and smiled at Hu Zi, "I came here with someone else. He was busy, and I was just about to go find him."
"It's okay, I can accompany you."
As soon as Hu Zi finished speaking, Shen Congyu keenly heard Jiang Xilin sneer.
She didn't dare to see him, but she didn't really want to be with Hu Zi either.
"Thank you, no thanks. I'll just tell...my friend and leave now."
Hu Zi: "Why? It's still early. If you don't want to run into Duan Zhen, I can take you to a place where she won't go."
Shen Congyu felt that Jiang Xilin's gaze was like a huge rock pressing on her, making her feel pressured and almost unable to breathe.
She stiffened and refused Hu Zi: "Really, there's no need."
She quickly took out her cell phone and sent a message to Qi Ming.
Hu Zi scratched his head and turned to look at Jiang Xilin, "Brother Jiang, did Zhenzhen quarrel with you?"
Jiang Xilin didn't take it seriously, "She's just like that."
"Yes, she'll be well again soon. Maybe she'll come to see you soon."
Chen Congyu listened to their conversation while typing. Although she didn't know Duan Zhen, she could guess a general idea after several contacts.
A spoiled and arrogant young lady.
It seems that Jiang Xilin really likes her, so he can tolerate Duan Zhen's little temper.
If that's the case, she must not meet Duan Zhen today.
"I'm leaving first." Chen Congyu packed up his phone and was about to leave.
When I turned around, I bumped into someone head-on.
The champagne in the other person's hand spilled all over Shen Congyu. Before she even looked up, she heard the other person's unhappy accusation: "Are you blind?"
It’s Duan Zhen.
Chen Congyu closed her eyes, and what she feared came true.
