Chapter 188 Deleted (Edited)
Chen Congyu went out in the afternoon, as if escaping.
The main reason was that Jiang Xilin was really a bit strange. His attitude towards her seemed to be much better today, and he kept staring at her.
This reaction only made Shen Congyu feel uneasy, wondering if he had some idea to torment her again.
As a result, she finished her lunch, grabbed her bag and went out without staying for a moment.
I met my colleagues at a cafe to discuss some changes to the content of the last interview with Jiang Xilin, as well as the contact details for the next interview.
Chen Congyu didn't expect that the interview manuscript about Jiang Xilin still needed to be revised at this time, even though everything was going smoothly in the meantime.
My colleague said, "I also heard it from the minister. The original draft was going to mention the story of Jiang Xilin and his girlfriend, but the minister contacted me at the last minute and said he wanted to delete this part."
This colleague also had dinner with Chen Congyu the night before, so after she told this, she looked at Chen Congyu's reaction.
Chen Congyu said: “Since it is the minister’s intention, then let’s change it.”
"Hey, aren't you curious why you suddenly deleted this part?"
Chen Congyu: “Did the minister tell you the reason?”
Colleague: "She didn't say, but I was very curious and didn't dare to ask more."
"I don't know either."
"Don't hide it from me. I won't tell anyone. Just tell me a little bit."
Seeing that she was serious and usually played best with her, Chen Congyu considered it for a moment.
She said conservatively: "Either Jiang Xilin doesn't want to mention other people in the interview, or their relationship has changed."
My colleague asked, “Is that really the case?”
Chen Congyu laughed: "If something really happened to them, you will definitely hear about it in the future."
"Okay." The colleague didn't force her.
The two sat in the cafe for an hour and then drove to meet the other people they had agreed to meet.
On the way, a colleague complained to Chen Congyu that the next person their magazine had scheduled for an interview behaved like a nouveau riche, was addicted to alcohol, and had very poor behavior when drinking.
Not only does he like to tease women, he also likes to bully others by taking advantage of his power.
However, these were things he liked to do after drinking, and nothing serious happened. The rest were settled with money, so the outside world had a pretty good impression of him.
"Fortunately, it was his assistant who met with us tonight, otherwise I would have been a little worried."
Shen Congyu nodded, "It's still early, and since we're meeting his assistant, we probably won't drink today."
My colleague said, "Yes, the meeting place was arranged by the assistant. It seems to be a teahouse, which is quite high-end."
Chen Congyu is a foil today, and all the jobs she does now belong to the foil role, but in their line of work, experience is very important.
Therefore, even though her work was small and miscellaneous and her salary was not high, she never neglected it.
The destination was indeed a teahouse, which was quiet and had pleasant scenery. The other party was not late, so we happened to meet at the door.
Chen Congyu walked beside his colleagues, listening to their conversation. One side of the stairs leading upstairs faced the teahouse yard. There was a whole piece of floor-to-ceiling glass, and he could clearly see the situation in the yard.
She caught a glimpse of someone entering the yard and subconsciously turned to look. She saw several people in a group, both men and women, dressed very formally. One of them looked familiar.
It took Chen Congyu a few seconds to remember the identity of that person. She had met her once at the hundred-day banquet of Aunt Yan Zhao's grandson. She was Yan Zhao's future aunt-in-law, Cheng Xishang.
Perhaps the name was too special and the other person's temperament was too positive, so Shen Congyu was deeply impressed.
But it stops there.
Chen Congyu followed his colleagues into a private room with excellent privacy and began to think about work.
In the middle of the conversation, Shen Congyu came out to answer the phone, and unknowingly walked to the end of the corridor and talked by the window. After the conversation, he stood there and replied to Wen Song's message for a few minutes.
When she was about to go back, she saw Cheng Xishang, whom she had met not long ago, coming up from downstairs. She was standing right in front of the stairs, and the two were facing each other, so they looked at each other briefly.
Chen Congyu felt an inexplicable familiarity from the first time he saw her, and the more they met, the stronger the feeling became.
Unfortunately, the other person withdrew his gaze and passed by her. It seemed that he did not share the same idea as her.
Chen Congyu also thought that he was overthinking it.
Today's temporary work was over, and when leaving, the colleague went to get the car. Chen Congyu was standing by the door of the teahouse waiting for her. When she saw a car coming, she stood aside, but the car stopped in front of her.
The driver's window rolled down, revealing Yan Zhao's face.
Shen Congyu was slightly surprised. When Yan Zhao looked at her, she simply nodded as a greeting, but Yan Zhao didn't let it go.
He started a conversation with her: "I heard you moved to Mirror Lake recently?"
Chen Congyu didn't have a good impression of him. Besides, since he had "heard it", he must have heard it from Jiang Xilin or the original case, so why bother asking her again.
She said dryly, "I think Mr. Yan would be more clear if he asked Jiang Xilin."
Yan Zhao smiled and asked, "Are you so wary of me?"
"It's not that I'm on guard, it's just that I'm not familiar with you, Mr. Yan."
And even though Yan Zhao smiled, Shen Congyu didn't feel that he was very peaceful and approachable.
Those who get along well with Jiang Xilin are all tough guys.
Chen Congyu killed them all without hesitation.
"Xilin and I are good friends. How can you be so unfamiliar with me while you're with him?"
Yan Zhao made it clear that he wanted to talk to her, and continued: "Besides, I accidentally broke up with Duan Ke because of you. Isn't that normal?"
Chen Congyu learned to be smart and asked back: "Are they really doing this because of me? How come I don't know?"
"So you still don't believe it."
Chen Congyu didn't respond to his words.
She didn't know what Yan Zhao thought of her in private, nor how much he knew about everything between her and Jiang Xilin, so the safest option was to say less.
Yan Zhao: "Actually, in my opinion, Xilin should just ignore you. You're not doing well right now anyway."
"You are so good at talking."
"It's natural for me to think this way. After all, everyone knows what you did."
Chen Congyu avoided looking at him.
It seems like he knows everything.
Perhaps because among those who knew everything about her and Jiang Xilin, Yuan An and Xue Mingrui were both relatively moderate, Yan Zhao was the first one to be so hostile to her.
So she was still unfamiliar with this situation.
"Mr. Yan dislikes me so much, he should persuade Jiang Xilin to kick me out as soon as possible. Then I will definitely give Mr. Yan a big red envelope."
Yan Zhao: "Unfortunately, he doesn't think so. There's nothing I can do."
Chen Congyu said without hesitation: “Mr. Yan is so leisurely, and he even told me this on purpose.”
"I heard that you're living next to Xilin. I'm curious."
Shen Congyu's patience was exhausted. At this moment, Yan Zhao looked behind her and saw Cheng Xishang coming out of the teahouse.
Yan Zhao called out, "Aunt, my uncle asked me to pick you up."
