Chapter 19 Still not doing it?
Before Chen Congyu had time to get into Qi Ming's car, he answered a phone call and looked visibly panicked.
He quickly comforted the other person, "Don't worry, I'll be there now."
Shen Congyu looked at him, and as expected, he left her behind.
An unreliable man.
There was no taxi available, so Shen Congyu had to walk out first. As she walked along the roadside, she wanted to go back and explain things to Qi Ming, hoping that he would keep his word.
A car drove up from afar on the quiet road and stopped beside Shen Congyu. Before she could react, the car window rolled down, revealing Jiang Xilin's familiar face.
He questioned her: "Didn't I tell you to wait for me in the car?"
Shen Congyu didn’t expect him to come out so soon. She couldn’t help but look back, not wanting to be seen.
“I wasn’t looking at my phone.”
Jiang Xilin frowned, as if pondering the credibility.
He still said, “Get in the car.”
Chen Congyu didn't move, "You go, I can take a taxi back by myself."
She refused without a second thought, knowing in her heart that Jiang Xilin definitely wasn't so kind as to send her back.
Jiang Xilin: "Do you want me to go down and invite you?"
It seemed like another car was coming. Judging from Jiang Xilin's expression, if she didn't get in the car, he would stay here and wait for her.
Chen Congyu just walked on two legs, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't beat him.
As the sound of other cars approaching got closer, Shen Congyu bit her lip anxiously and looked at Jiang Xilin, who remained unmoved.
Chen Congyu finally opened the car door and got in.
Just as the car behind was about to come over, Jiang Xilin drove away first.
Chen Congyu's tense nerves finally relaxed a little. She grabbed the seat belt in front of her, not understanding what this man was up to.
"What if someone sees us? Isn't your girlfriend still here?"
Jiang Xilin seemed nonchalant. "Since you're scared, why don't you just do what I say?"
As for Chen Congyu's next sentence, Jiang Xilin ignored it.
Chen Congyu wanted him to restrain himself, "I think if someone saw it, I wouldn't mind, but Mr. Jiang, you have a girlfriend after all, so it will have a greater impact on you."
"Oh? How come it doesn't affect you? Come to think of it, you're married, aren't you?"
Jiang Xilin's words left Shen Congyu speechless.
Chen Congyu is now extremely wary of him, and she always remembers what agreement she has reached with him.
She asked after a while, "Where are we going now?"
Jiang Xilin glanced at her and said, "Your home."
Alarm bells rang in Shen Congyu's mind. She couldn't understand why this man was with his girlfriend one second and went to her place the next.
She was thinking of finding an excuse to stop him when Jiang Xilin's cell phone rang. She immediately fell silent, wishing she could hold her breath.
Jiang Xilin picked up the phone, and a woman's voice came through the car's Bluetooth.
"I didn't see you. Did you leave first?"
Chen Congyu didn't recognize the voice, but she saw Jiang Xilin's caller note on the display: Ke.
Duan Ke.
Chen Congyu pinched his palm and turned his face to the side to look outside.
Jiang Xilin: "Well, something happened."
"Well, I was thinking of going to a newly opened restaurant with you later. It should suit your taste."
Jiang Xilin: "Tomorrow? I'll pick you up."
Duan Ke: "Okay, then you drive, I'll go talk to Zhenzhen."
Jiang Xilin: "Okay."
It was a very brief conversation, but you could tell that the two people got along very well and naturally.
Duan Ke sounded like a person with a good personality, and Jiang Xilin's attitude towards her was completely different from usual.
Chen Congyu couldn't help but think more.
I used to think Duan Zhen was Jiang Xilin's girlfriend, but now I know she is not. Duan Zhen made things difficult for her for no reason, but he did not react at all. Because he likes Duan Ke very much, so he tolerates her sister as well, right?
Shen Congyu was so lost in thought that she didn't notice when Duan Ke hung up the phone until Jiang Xilin asked her, "What did you promise Qi Ming?"
Chen Congyu was half a beat slower, "No."
"No? Don't tell me you came here with him voluntarily."
While waiting for the red light, Jiang Xilin looked at her with undisguised scrutiny in his eyes.
Chen Congyu shook his head, “He said he took care of my work and asked me to accompany him today. I didn’t want him to use this excuse to find me next time, so I agreed to it.”
Perhaps because her attitude was good enough, Jiang Xilin was no longer so aggressive.
"Don't get too close to him."
Chen Congyu asked: "Because he is not a good person?"
Jiang Xilin: "Do you still need to ask me?"
"What about you?"
Jiang Xilin chuckled, but a sense of oppression followed. "Me neither, so now with your identity, I don't want to see your private life too messy."
