Chapter 235 No One Remembers
The place Zhou Yu and Chen Congyu were going to was a newly opened restaurant. It was very popular in other places, but now that it opened a store in Haicheng, they needed to make an appointment early to book a table.
Zhou Ning had originally made an appointment a long time ago. She was going to come with Shen Congyu, but she had to fly abroad at the last minute. In order not to waste the opportunity, she asked Zhou Yu to come with Shen Congyu as well.
The restaurant was located a bit far away, in a famous tea house in Haicheng, so after Chen Congyu and Zhou Yu agreed to go with Zhou Zhou and Jiang Xilin, the four of them drove two cars there.
Chen Congyu and Zhou Yu were also in the same car.
After arriving at the place, Zhou Yu and Jiang Xilin were also parking the car. It was quite sunny outside, so Chen Congyu went to the restaurant with Zhou Zhou first.
Zhou Zhou was still lost in thought, thinking that Jiang Xilin and Zhou Yu were also alone together. If anything happened, who should he help?
When Shen Congyu was talking to him, he was stunned for two seconds.
"Do you also think this restaurant is worth visiting?"
Zhou Zhou met Shen Congyu's gaze, and she seemed to be asking this question very seriously.
Zhou Zhou said, "Yeah, I heard Zhou Ning say that. I just happened to have the chance so I came along. It shouldn't bother you, right?"
Chen Congyu slowly curled up the corners of his mouth, "What are you thinking about? How can you delay us?"
Zhou Zhou cleared his throat unnaturally, "Nothing, I just felt that it was just the two of you."
"It doesn't matter, we all know each other anyway."
Shen Congyu went to the reserved room first, while Zhou Zhou slowed down and looked outside, waiting for Jiang Xilin and Zhou Yu to join him.
There was no special arrangement when they took their seats, but Zhou Yu also sat next to Shen Congyu, and Jiang Xilin sat opposite Shen Congyu. In this way, Zhou Zhou's seat was diagonally opposite Shen Congyu.
Zhou Zhou didn't have much of an appetite, he was mainly thinking about ending the day smoothly.
He inexplicably regretted that he had to get involved in this matter, making him feel so uncomfortable.
Everything seemed harmonious on the surface, but in fact, Chen Congyu couldn't calm down when facing Jiang Xilin.
If he hadn't come with Zhou Zhou, she would never have agreed to let him be here too.
The people sitting next to him and the people opposite him when he looked up were not good people. Zhou Zhou, the only simple-minded one, inexplicably had a worried expression on his face today.
The dishes were not yet served, so Shen Congyu made an excuse to go out for some fresh air.
She called a colleague and took care of some work, then instead of going back home directly, she stood at the window looking at the tea garden outside.
You can't stay out for too long. Shen Congyu took a few breaths of fresh air and prepared to go back. When he turned around, he almost bumped into someone.
She subconsciously stepped back, but there was a windowsill behind her and she couldn't move far away.
The person in front of him was indifferent, as if he had been waiting for this moment.
Chen Congyu looked at Jiang Xilin's face and couldn't help but say the first words to him today, "What are you doing? There's no sound at all. It's scary."
Jiang Xilin was calm and said directly, "If I hadn't come at this time, you probably wouldn't have said a word to me."
"There's nothing to say."
"No?" Jiang Xilin asked her indifferently, and it was impossible to tell whether she really thought so or did it on purpose.
Chen Congyu looked at the wall next to him and said, "There wasn't one in the first place."
Jiang Xilin didn't argue with her at this time. Since she didn't say anything, then he said it.
"How far have you and Zhou Yu progressed?"
He asked too bluntly.
Chen Congyu frowned subconsciously, "Nothing has happened yet. Besides, why are you asking me this question again?"
Jiang Xilin admitted generously, "I wanted to know, so I asked. Haven't you two been getting along well lately? Without me being an obstacle, he should be the type you're happy with, right?"
To be honest, Zhou Yuye's conditions are top-notch. Now from Shen Congyu's perspective, there is nothing wrong with her.
Chen Congyu just didn't like Jiang Xilin questioning him like this.
So she said: "It's a bit early for you to ask these questions now. You will know when we are really together."
She was about to leave after she finished speaking, but Jiang Xilin grabbed her arm expressionlessly.
The strength in his hands unconsciously increased.
Even if he had known this was a possibility, he didn't want to hear her say it.
Jiang Xilin asked Shen Congyu to stand in front of him again and listen to him, "You can't be with him." "Why?"
"No reason. I don't want to."
Such a righteous answer made Shen Congyu laugh out loud.
She pushed his hand away. "Here you go again. You never had any control over who I was with before, and now you have even less control."
Jiang Xilin's eyes flickered slightly. There were many words on the tip of his tongue that he could use to answer her, but he chose none.
He chose to say: "I don't want to control you, I just don't want to see you with other men."
"Unfortunately, you have no reason to do anything, so I won't listen to you."
Jiang Xilin's tone became heavier, and almost every word was filled with heavy emotions. "You have to leave the chance to me, because you can't give up on me a second time."
He was a little anxious, because he had said similar things to Shen Congyu many times, and now he no longer had the reasons he had before. If he didn't say this, he might really have to wait until Shen Congyu was with another man.
Shen Congyu pursed the corners of his mouth, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
After hesitating for a moment, she said, "It wasn't even the first time, so how could there be a second time? Don't say such things anymore."
"Why can't I tell you? You explained clearly what happened back then. You didn't do it voluntarily. Why do you choose someone else now?"
Now is not a good time to talk about this kind of thing, so Chen Congyu wanted to go back early, but Jiang Xilin saw her intention and thought she was going to escape again, so he had to step forward and compress the last bit of distance between them.
His breath broke into the intimate distance again after many days, and Shen Congyu couldn't help but hold her breath.
Jiang Xilin: "Is he pursuing you?"
"No."
"If he can do it, so can I."
Chen Congyu: “I said no!”
Jiang Xilin: "I don't believe it. Do you know that you have been discovered by others a long time ago?"
Chen Congyu took a breath and looked at him again, "So what if you saw it? It's normal for a man and a woman to be unmarried."
"So you will consider him?"
"I told you, it's normal whoever I'm with."
This time Jiang Xilin got straight to the point and asked, "What about me?"
This was the first time their emotions had fluctuated so drastically since they had figured out everything by the river that night.
It's like going back to the past.
Jiang Xilin grabbed Shen Congyu's arm tightly, "You left for me back then, but why were you able to walk out?"
Chen Congyu said: "You can also choose to start over."
"I won't do that," Jiang Xilin said without hesitation, "If I choose to move forward, no one will remember me."
