Chapter 215 Cousin
As for Chen Congyu, she also had dinner with Zhou Yu, who sent her home before leaving.
She only had time to check her phone while waiting for the elevator and found that Jiang Xilin had sent her a message more than ten minutes ago.
He hadn't contacted her for a long time, and when he came, Shen Congyu was worried that he might want to find her for something.
When I clicked on it, I saw that Jiang Xilin was asking her what she had been doing since she didn't ask Xi Wen to send her off.
Chen Congyu replied: [I am shopping with a friend.]
Jiang Xilin's message came back only when she got home.
[Friends? You're putting it so vaguely. You only have those few friends.]
Chen Congyu felt that his words were a bit baffling.
She typed: [Do you want me to report everything to you?]
Jiang Xilin: [Is it not possible to ask? ]
Chen Congyu: [Okay, didn’t I tell you?]
Jiang Xilin ignored her afterwards.
She thought he probably came to talk to her because he had some free time.
Originally, Chen Congyu wanted to ask him about the situation at his home, but then he thought that if he talked to him, they might quarrel again.
Forget it. It’s such a big thing anyway. If it’s really implemented, she will hear about it.
…
A few days later, on Zhou Yuye's niece's birthday, Zhou Yuye asked Chen Congyu in the morning whether he would go today, and he could pick her up after get off work.
Chen Congyu thought about what Yuan An had told her last night, asking her to free up tonight, as she might have to accompany Jiang Xilin to meet someone.
As a result, she couldn't go with Zhou Yu to celebrate his niece's birthday.
What a coincidence, it happened today.
I don’t know who I’m going to see.
Chen Congyu apologized and said to Zhou Yu: "I'm sorry, I can't go tonight."
Zhou Yu also said: "That's fine, just go ahead and do your thing."
"Say happy birthday to your little niece and me."
Zhou Yu also chuckled, "Okay, I'll pass it on."
Putting down the phone, Shen Congyu was not in a good mood. Originally, he could go out to play, but now he is with Jiang Xilin, who knows what he will do.
When she got off work, she walked out of the radio station and saw Jiang Xilin's car.
It had been a while since I last saw him. Shen Congyu noticed that he had lost some weight, and seemed to be very busy and a little tired.
The original case was not there, so he drove it himself.
After Chen Congyu got in the car and fastened his seat belt, he asked, "Where are we going tonight?"
Jiang Xilin was still dressed as he was at work, except he'd removed his tie. He was now wearing a simple white shirt and black pants, his sleeves rolled up to his forearms. He didn't look too serious, which was perfect for meeting people and discussing business.
He held the steering wheel, looked at the road ahead, and said, "Let's have dinner and meet someone."
"Who is it? So serious."
Shen Congyu didn’t think for a moment that there was someone else around him whom she hadn’t met yet.
But it is very likely that she doesn't know him, otherwise Jiang Xilin would have said it directly.
She adjusted her seat and asked, "You've been busy lately, haven't you?"
"Yeah. Do you want to see me, or do you think this is nice?"
Chen Congyu didn’t answer directly, but asked him: “What do you think, I want to see you?”
Jiang Xilin curled his lips, "It seems that you still hate me as always."
Chen Congyu didn't answer.
She turned her head to look outside.
The place to eat seemed a bit far away. Chen Congyu thought about it and decided to simply touch up her makeup with the cosmetics in her bag.
If it was the first time she met someone, she would have to cover up the office vibe from a whole day of work and pay attention to her image.
When he arrived at the place and saw the restaurant, Chen Congyu had an idea in his mind, because the environment here is good, like a garden, and it is usually difficult to book a table.
It can be seen that the person I want to meet tonight is not an ordinary person.
Shen Congyu walked beside Jiang Xilin and went in. When they arrived at the room Jiang Xilin had booked, the person had not arrived yet. Shen Congyu became more and more curious about who the other person was and why Jiang Xilin brought her here.
They didn't have to wait long before the waiter brought someone over.
When he saw the person, Chen Congyu did not recognize him. He was a man who looked to be about thirty years old. He was in good shape, with a mature and steady temperament, and a familiar shadow.
She was still looking when Jiang Xilin beside her said, "Brother."
The other party smiled and nodded to him, then extended his hand to Chen Congyu, "Hello, my name is Jiang Qunqing, and I'm Xilin's cousin."
Chen Congyu suddenly reacted and held out his hand, “Chen Congyu.”
No wonder she felt something was familiar, it was slightly similar to Jiang Xilin.
As soon as she heard the surname, she understood almost everything.
Jiang Xilin actually took her to meet people from his grandfather's side.
Looking at the person in front of him, and considering that Jiang Xilin called him brother, he should not be the one who caused trouble for him that day.
After Jiang Qunqing sat down, he spoke to Jiang Xilin: “Does Miss Shen know about your recent situation?”
Jiang Xilin glanced at Chen Congyu, and Chen Congyu said, "Rui Rui mentioned it to me."
Jiang Xilin understood what she meant.
He told Jiang Qunqing, "I have a general idea."
Jiang Qunqing: "I came here this time because of what happened to you last time Xilin came back from Xingcheng. I knew that it had implicated Miss Shen, so today I asked Xilin to bring you with him. I apologize to you on his behalf."
It turned out that the incident that day was caused by their cousin. The cousin was relatively young and had been spoiled by his family since he was a child. He had a bad temper. He knew that Jiang Xilin had returned to the Jiang family and did not want him to go back, so he deliberately made trouble for him and tried to make him behave himself and not go back.
Chen Congyu was speechless after hearing this.
When a family has money and more people, the relationships become chaotic.
Jiang Xilin had just returned, and the Jiang family had not yet publicly acknowledged his identity, but some people thought he was in the way.
This cousin is too narrow-minded. Jiang Xilin has been outside for so many years, and his schooling was supported by teachers. It is not easy for him to get to where he is now. The Jiang family is wealthy, but Jiang Xilin has not yet gotten a good life.
Shen Congyu still didn’t understand the situation of the Jiang family, and now his impression of her has fallen to the bottom.
I don’t know what this cousin in front of me is like.
He said he apologized, but Chen Congyu still denied it?
She sat next to him and listened to him talking to Jiang Xilin.
"Next month, during Grandpa's birthday, your identity will be announced. Although Grandpa didn't approve of Uncle and Aunt's marriage back then, after all these years, learning that Uncle passed away at such a young age, Grandpa is very sad and regrets his decision back then."
Chen Congyu looked at Jiang Xilin's reaction, but he was too calm. I don't know if it was because he had been facing these things all the time during this period, so he was able to calm down and deal with it.
Jiang Xilin shook the teacup in his hand gently, "Do they all know about this arrangement?"
"Grandpa discussed this with me. I will inform everyone in the family about this before Grandpa's birthday."
Jiang Qunqing used the word "notification".
When Shen Congyu heard him speak, it meant that his words carried a lot of weight in the Jiang family now.
Jiang Qunqing added, "As for your concerns about what happened last time happening again, I've already warned them that if it happens again, they'll be punished. And since it's Grandpa's will, they dare not disobey."
