Chapter 228 Thank you for your reminder
The view outside from this position gives a feeling of tranquility. The setting sun shines through the sycamore trees and leaves, layer by layer, which is very visually pleasing.
Chen Congyu looked outside and gradually became dazed, thinking back to when he was studying in Haicheng.
After reading the menu, Jiang Xilin noticed that she was in a daze, so he followed her gaze and looked outside.
Perhaps all universities have some similarities, and Jiang Xilin also noticed something.
However, he quickly handed the menu to Shen Congyu, "Order."
Shen Congyu lowered his head and ordered two dishes he wanted to eat. In addition to the one Jiang Xilin had just ordered, the waiter quickly took the menu to the kitchen.
There was no one around, and Shen Congyu and Jiang Xilin were facing each other without any cover. She couldn't help but pick up the water cup and drink.
I don't want to face some awkward situations.
"By the way, can I ask you something?" Chen Congyu put down the water glass.
Jiang Xilin: "You say."
"That is, what are your plans? Isn't the Jiang family going to announce your identity? What are you going to do next?"
In fact, with the help of the Jiang family, everything will be much easier, but there will also be corresponding pressure.
However, it has not been easy for Jiang Xilin to get to where he is today on his own.
So Shen Congyu wasn't sure what he would choose.
Jiang Xilin slowly turned the teacup in his hands. As someone who would have a new identity tomorrow, he was in a very relaxed state, showing no sign of excitement or excitement about joining a huge family.
Before he formally answered Shen Congyu, he asked her a question.
"Are you really curious, or do you want to know where I will stay in the future?"
The small movements of Chen Congyu's hands increased unconsciously, and he said, "I have both, will you still answer me?"
"I don't think there's anything to hide. I won't give up everything in Haicheng."
Jiang Xilin paused and continued, "Besides, if I stay here, won't I never see you again?"
Chen Congyu: "What does this have to do with me? Didn't you say..."
She was about to remind him of what he had promised, but Jiang Xilin knew what she was going to say and interrupted her.
"I'm saying that our previous relationship can end, but that doesn't mean we won't have any contact in the future."
Because of this, Chen Congyu felt that the relationship between the two of them had not actually changed much.
She was hesitating and didn't say anything, so Jiang Xilin asked him, "Or is this what you planned?"
Chen Congyu basically retorted subconsciously, “I didn’t.”
She felt that it was not appropriate to talk about this now, so she picked up the water and poured herself a glass, "Forget it, I won't talk about it now."
The restaurant served food very quickly, and since there weren't many people there, the second floor was very quiet while the two of them were eating.
The food tasted good. In order to avoid the previous topic, Chen Congyu ate seriously.
She quite liked the food here, but she didn't have a big appetite, so even if she ate seriously, she would eat faster than Jiang Xilin.
She simply took out her cell phone and searched for places nearby to visit.
Zhou Yuye sent a message at this time, asking her where she was. His niece said that she wanted to have dinner with her when she was free.
Chen Congyu said that she was not in Haicheng, and then asked: [Why does she want to have dinner with me? ]
Later, Zhou Yu also changed from sending messages to making phone calls.
The moment he saw his name appear on the screen, Shen Congyu looked at the person opposite him and subconsciously picked up his phone so that Jiang Xilin could not see the content on it.
Jiang Xilin wasn't looking at her just now, but her reaction now caught his attention.
"Who's looking for you? You're so alert."
Chen Congyu stood up holding the phone, "I'll go answer the call first."
She left her seat and moved to a corner so that she could see Jiang Xilin's movements and speak softly so that Jiang Xilin could not hear her.
Zhou Yu also asked her: "Why did you go to Xingcheng? Is it for work?"
Shen Congyu didn't hide much in front of him, but it was hard to say now, after all, it was Jiang Xilin's business.
"There's something. I'll tell you when I get back."
Zhou Yu didn't ask any further questions, but only asked her when she would be back.
Shen Congyu thought for a moment and said, "Two or three days."
"Okay, I'll talk to Zhou Ning."
Chen Congyu was curious, "Why would she want to see me?"
Zhou Yu's voice was also gentle. "Because when I mentioned the birthday present I gave her, she liked it very much. I said you helped me pick it out. Zhou Zhou happened to be next to her, and he was very surprised. This made Zhou Ning also very interested in you."
He was afraid that Chen Congyu would feel burdened, so he told her about Zhou Ning in detail, "Don't worry, you can wait until you are free. Zhou Ning has a good personality. She may think that the gift you chose is very much to her liking, so she wants to meet you."
Making one more friend is not a bad thing for Shen Congyu.
Besides, she didn't seem to have any reason to refuse.
But before she agreed, she still asked Zhou Yuye: "Will you go with me then?"
"Do you want me to go?"
Chen Congyu: "I just feel that after all, she and I are not very familiar with each other. If you are present, the atmosphere will be more casual."
Zhou Yu also smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll go see you with her."
When Shen Congyu saw Jiang Xilin looking in her direction, she said to Zhou Yu, "That's it for now. I'll make a specific appointment when I get back."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
The last three words he said were "let it be" and Shen Congyu didn't expect him to say that, so when he agreed, she was about to hang up the phone. When she heard him say wait for her, she thought she had heard it wrong.
But she didn't think too much about it, and Zhou Yu probably just meant it literally.
Chen Congyu didn't know that Zhou Yu was also there. Zhou Zhou was present when he called.
Zhou Zhou couldn't help but think more after hearing his last sentence.
"Uncle, it's easy for people to misunderstand you talking to her on the phone."
Zhou Yu also asked him: "What's wrong?"
Zhou Zhou: "If you don't know, you'd think you were talking to your girlfriend on the phone."
Thinking of what he had seen and felt before, Zhou Zhou's expression became a little solemn.
"But uncle, don't you think that your relationship with Shen Congyu is indeed unusual? Even if you say that you are just friends, I have never seen such a friend of the opposite sex around you in all these years."
Zhou Yu was also silent for two seconds and did not deny it.
"That's normal."
"That's not normal," Zhou Zhou couldn't help but say, "Uncle, do you really consider her a friend?"
Zhou Yu also knocked his head, "What do you want to say? Just say it, this is not your style."
Zhou Zhou was in a dilemma.
It would be fine if he didn't know so much, but now he is caught between Jiang Xilin and Zhou Yuye, and he knows a lot about both sides.
I just don’t know what to do.
Finally, he reminded Zhou Yuye, "The relationship between Chen Congyu and Brother Jiang is very complicated. I don't want to be caught in the middle. In fact, I hope you really just treat Chen Congyu as a friend."
"Thank you for your reminder, but we are all adults and we will think carefully before doing anything."
