Chapter 266 No Need to Rush
Both of them had things to do in the afternoon, so Jiang Xilin sent Shen Congyu to where she was going, and then they separated.
Chen Congyu was always absent-minded in the afternoon, and she knew that she was influenced by Jiang Xilin.
It has been a year since she returned to Haicheng. Over the years, her living conditions have undergone earth-shaking changes, and the most prominent one is of course Jiang Xilin.
Now, since the relationship between the two of them had changed, it had been so long, and she no longer doubted whether Jiang Xilin was sincere. But even so, she and he were both pretending to be confused even though they knew the truth.
Her excuse was that she was busy with work and career, and now that the results were coming, it seemed there was no reason to escape. But on the other hand, she knew that if she gave in, she would be facing more than just a casual relationship.
What did Jiang Xilin want? He wanted to end the time they had missed in the past few years.
Chen Congyu felt pressured and couldn't think of a clue, so he forced himself to put it aside for the time being.
After finishing her work in the afternoon, Shen Congyu went back home. She didn't see Jiang Xilin's car in the garage, so he probably didn't come back.
She changed her clothes and put on some makeup when she got a call from Yuan An. Aside from matters related to Jiang Xilin, he rarely contacted her alone. For a long time, Jiang Xilin had been contacting her directly, and she hadn't spoken to Yuan An alone for a long time.
The original case contacted her and asked her if Xue Mingrui had contacted her.
"I haven't been here in the past two days. What's wrong? What happened?" The last time Xue Mingrui contacted Chen Congyu was to ask her if she wanted to go to Xue's house on New Year's Day. She had an appointment, so she didn't make an appointment with Xue Mingrui.
The original case was silent for a moment before he said, "I had a conflict with her, and she hasn't replied to my messages. I'm a little worried."
"Why is this happening all of a sudden? Nothing should happen, right?"
The two have known each other for so many years. Xue Mingrui has a lively and cheerful personality, and Yuan An is a very reliable person. Usually, Xue Mingrui would just quarrel with him, but never seriously. This is the first time in her memory.
Yuan An's tone sounded depressed. "She should be fine. I just want to contact her and talk to her in person."
Chen Congyu was also worried that something might go wrong, but since the original case said so, it was probably because Xue Mingrui didn't want to pay attention to him for a while after the two had a quarrel.
"I'll ask her. You can look for her too. Let me know if you have any questions."
Original Case: “Okay, sorry to bother you.”
Chen Congyu was actually quite curious about what kind of conflict these two could have. At this point, they had never had a serious quarrel before.
She then sent a message to Xue Mingrui to confirm her safety.
Half an hour later, when Shen Congyu was about to go out, Xue Mingrui replied to her.
She was fine, but because of the original case, she didn't want to pay attention to him. She didn't tell Shen Congyu what the reason was on the phone. After a few words, she lost her composure and said she would talk to him another day.
One or two of them said it was okay, that it was their personal matter, so they should deal with it themselves first. Chen Congyu put away his phone and went out.
The place Jiang Xilin booked was a mountaintop restaurant, which was very high-end, so even on this day, there were not many people.
The environment here is very good. Although Haicheng is not at a high altitude, the night view from here is very beautiful and prosperous. The restaurant is elegant enough, with soft music flowing quietly, quiet and comfortable.
The waiter took Chen Congyu to the reserved seat, which was the place with the best view and privacy in the restaurant, with no one else around.
Jiang Xilin had already arrived and had changed his clothes. When Shen Congyu walked towards him, his eyes turned to her. The lights around her were like stars in his eyes. His black pupils were very bright.
Chen Congyu went over and sat down, inexplicably feeling that this meal was very formal.
She had chosen the meal, and the two of them were not happy when they parted in the afternoon, but Jiang Xilin did not bring up the past.
The two of them seemed to be facing the meal in harmony. While waiting for the dishes to be served, Chen Congyu couldn't help but ask him, "What are your plans after dinner?"
"Didn't you say you would listen to me?"
Chen Congyu: “Yeah, I just want to know.”
Jiang Xilin didn't know why he was inexplicably not in a very good mood. He just said, "You'll know when the time comes. It won't take long. Don't worry."
