Chapter 186: Divorce and Remarriage
There was a crisp sound, and Shen Congyu was stunned.
It’s not that she hasn’t thought about beating Jiang Xilin, but it was just a thought.
After all, Jiang Xilin is no longer someone she can smoke whenever she wants.
She was afraid that Jiang Xilin would get angry.
So before Jiang Xilin could speak, she pulled the quilt between them and whispered, "I didn't mean to do that. You came up to me all of a sudden."
The light was dim, so it was difficult to see if there were any marks on Jiang Xilin's face.
She really didn't dare to look.
Jiang Xilin didn’t say anything, but stretched out his hand to pull away the quilt that had been pulled over her, scaring Shen Congyu so much that she wanted to run away.
Jiang Xilin held her thigh and asked her in a low voice: "Why are you running?"
"I really didn't mean to..."
Jiang Xilin: "Are you scared now?"
Chen Congyu softened his breathing and asked, "Do you want to fight back?"
She completely ignored Jiang Xilin's words, feeling that every word he said was full of meaning.
Hearing her words, Jiang Xilin raised the corners of his mouth silently and said in a low voice: "Of course, otherwise I'll let you slap me in vain?"
"...How can this be the same? I was careless."
Jiang Xilin pressed down, pinched her cheeks so that her face was facing her, and whispered a few words slowly in her ear.
Chen Congyu was nervous. After he finished speaking, she took a few seconds to react and her face suddenly became hot.
She began to push him with her hands and knees.
But it still couldn't be pushed open.
Before Shen Congyu collapsed, she was still wondering if Jiang Xilin had been alone for too long recently and his mind was a little twisted.
Or was he deliberately tormenting her in this way?
While taking a shower, Chen Congyu was still thinking that it would be great to rest tomorrow, but now she would rather think about work.
The next day, Chen Congyu didn't have to get up early, and Jiang Xilin had to go out. When she woke up, it was almost lunchtime, and she was glad that Jiang Xilin was not at home.
Xue Mingrui came before dinner and said, "I told Brother Jiang about it, and he said you happened to be resting at home, so I came."
She actually sent a message to Shen Congyu last night, but Shen Congyu was pinned to the bed by Jiang Xilin at the time and didn't hear any message coming in. She slept until noon again, and was so hungry that she wanted to fill her stomach quickly, but she hadn't touched her phone yet.
Shen Congyu was very embarrassed and said that Jiang Xilin was drunk and crazy last night.
Xue Mingrui realized that it was not madness in the literal sense, and he immediately understood.
She scratched her cheek, "So do you want to rest this afternoon?"
"It's okay, I got enough sleep this morning."
Because Jiang Xilin was not at lunch, he probably told his aunt that Xue Mingrui's favorite dishes were prepared for lunch.
Chen Congyu is not picky about food now, but Jiang Xilin has a much lighter taste. When he is not around, Chen Congyu feels much more relaxed.
"Sister Cong Yu, how have you been since you moved in? Did you have any arguments with Brother Jiang?"
This is what Xue Mingrui is most worried about.
Shen Congyu told what she had done in the past week, until last night.
Xue Mingrui listened with great interest, mainly because he rarely saw anyone treat Jiang Xilin like this.
"Sister Cong Yu, you are awesome."
Chen Congyu is good at doing this kind of thing. If it were someone with Wen Song's personality, he would probably just destroy the place.
There is a small smash every three days and a big smash every five days.
"By the way, last time I asked you to ask him about his relationship with Duan Ke, did you find out anything?"
Xue Mingrui said: "It seems they really broke up and even admitted the original case. Although I don't know if it is the reason given by Brother Jiang, the result should not be a lie."
Chen Congyu thought so at most, maybe Jiang Xilin didn’t say the real reason, otherwise it would still be very hasty.
"Actually, if Brother Jiang absolutely hated you, he probably wouldn't let you live here. Who would want to see someone they hate living in their home every day?"
Chen Congyu chewed the food, not knowing what to say.
Seeing her silence, Xue Mingrui asked cautiously: "Is there any possibility of reconciliation between you two?"
Chen Congyu was lost in thought, "Why would you think so?"
"After all, we're entangled again, and neither of us has fallen in love with anyone else, so of course I'm thinking about what could happen."
Xue Mingrui had been thinking about this for a long time, but due to various reasons he didn't dare to ask it out loud.
Now that Jiang Xilin and Duan Ke have broken up, she has fewer concerns.
She continued to analyze to Shen Congyu, "Think about it, when you divorced, Brother Jiang had feelings for you, and he hated you because you insisted on getting a divorce. Plus, later I heard that you got married again, but now I know that you were forced to get married, so doesn't the conflict between you become smaller?"
"It's really that simple, but my divorce from him is the biggest conflict, and I can't change it."
"Some people get remarried after divorce."
Xue Mingrui was serious.
Chen Congyu subconsciously avoided thinking about it.
Some of the problems between her and Jiang Xilin occurred and were solved at the wrong time.
Take for example the fact that he knew she was married to Chen Yao, so after she returned to Haicheng, he always used this matter to harass and pressure her. Even though he now knew that she did not do it voluntarily, what he did had already happened.
If you have known each other for too long and there are too many things between you, it will be like a tangled yarn. Although you know there are loose threads, it will be very troublesome to sort them out.
Even after finding the thread ends and untangling them, there will inevitably be tangles left in the process.
Besides, Chen Congyu thought that she and Jiang Xilin were not at the point where they only considered past grievances and didn't think about anything else.
Chen Congyu didn't want to continue talking, so Xue Mingrui changed the subject. She knew that this matter could not be rushed.
In the afternoon, the two of them were playing with the puppy at home. While drinking water, Chen Congyu browsed the circle of friends on his mobile phone and saw that a photographer he knew had posted a set of photos of a cocktail party.
She hardly knew anyone in the photos, so when she saw a familiar figure, she noticed it easily at a glance.
It was a corner of a photo, a side profile. Unfortunately, she had seen one of them so many times that she could feel it with her eyes closed, so she recognized the identity without looking too much.
Jiang Xilin.
The person next to him is Duan Ke.
Perhaps the photographer did not get permission to take a picture of them, so he only captured the two of them in a corner.
Xue Mingrui saw her staring at her phone and asked curiously, "What's wrong? What are you looking at?"
Chen Congyu handed over the phone, "Can you recognize it?"
She hinted at something and clicked on the photo, which Xue Mingrui soon noticed.
"Are they at the cocktail party together?"
Chen Congyu put down the water cup and said, "I don't know if we went together, but it seems that's what they meant."
Xue Mingrui suddenly didn't know what to say.
She was feeling upset. She was still discussing the possibility of reconciliation at noon, but it had only been a short while and she was slapped in the face.
Now she couldn't say anything more.
Advised Chen Congyu: “Don’t think too much about it, wait for Brother Jiang to come back and ask, I will ask him.”
"No need. Whatever he does, is it our business?"
But Xue Mingrui doesn't think so.
She thought she must ask, but she noticed that Shen Congyu didn't care at all, and she became even more dissatisfied with Jiang Xilin.
When Jiang Xilin came back and saw Xue Mingrui, she glared at him angrily.
