Chapter 272 Jiang Qunqing
After the New Year, Shen Congyu quickly started a new job. With all the busy things going on, she would only think about Jiang Xilin when she had time.
Xue Mingrui also learned that Jiang Xilin had encountered a bad situation in the Shen family, but no further details were released.
He had never stayed in the Jiang family, or even in Star City, for such a long time. To say that he was fine was not credible.
However, Shen Congyu thought carefully and thought that perhaps Jiang Xilin had anticipated something before going to Xingcheng, and that it might not be resolved in a short time, so he asked Yuan An to stay. With Yuan An staying here, Haicheng's work could still be managed.
There was no inside information from Cheng Xishang. Chen Congyu didn't want to believe it, but she had to believe that Jiang Xilin was really in trouble.
After work, she had a brief phone call with Cheng Xishang and stood by the window, rubbing her temples to get some fresh air.
No matter what happened between her and Jiang Xilin, it was their own business. She had never thought of putting him in danger, or had any more extreme thoughts.
On the New Year's Day, Chen Congyu occasionally thought of his missed call and message, and had the thought of "if only I could have contacted him earlier".
The person who was even more restless than her was Xue Mingrui. Xue Mingrui now had no way to rely on others to get the original case, so he could only discuss it with Shen Congyu. But talking alone was of little use, as Haicheng and Xingcheng were so far apart.
Xue Mingrui waited for Chen Congyu to get off work. When the two of them were having dinner, Xue Mingrui came up and asked Chen Congyu when she had a day off recently.
"I'm thinking of going to Star City. Brother Jiang doesn't have any relatives here, and if something happens, no one will care. We... I'm worried, so I have to at least make sure he's safe. It's been so long."
It's been so long and I haven't heard from him. No matter how much I try to convince myself that he is capable, I'm starting to feel uneasy.
Shen Congyu nodded and responded calmly, "It is indeed worrying."
Xue Mingrui followed up with, "Really? Well, will you go with me?"
She was very serious and focused in expecting Shen Congyu to agree.
His eyes are so clear that it makes people feel embarrassed to refuse him.
To be honest, she was also curious about Jiang Xilin's current movements. If she agreed to Xue Mingrui's request, there would be no problem at all.
So under Xue Mingrui's patient gaze, Shen Congyu said: "I'll take a look at my work schedule for the next few days and I'll accompany you when I'm free."
“That’s great!”
After the Lunar New Year, Xue Mingrui seemed to have come to terms with the original case. However, she wasn't feeling any better now that two people she had known for years, one of whom was the original case, had completely fallen out, and the other, Jiang Xilin, had disappeared.
That is to say, the person in front of her is Chen Congyu, whom she can trust and rely on, so she won't be gloomy all day long.
Chen Congyu's last rest was two days later. She and Xue Mingrui bought plane tickets to Xingcheng. It was raining in Xingcheng when the plane landed.
This is commonplace in southern cities. The air is damp and the sky is gloomy. This season is rare in Haicheng. It is cold and humid, and the wind can penetrate into the bones.
Therefore, Chen Congyu sat in the car and looked at the sky outside. He was affected by the rainy day and felt depressed.
The second time I went to the Jiang family, my relationship with Jiang Xilin did not change, but my mood was different.
They had no way of entering the villa community directly, but it was thanks to Cheng Xishang's help. Because they were unaware of the situation and wanted to keep a low profile, they didn't take a car.
Xue Mingrui walked beside Shen Congyu and sneezed two or three times in a row when the wind blew.
Chen Congyu suddenly felt a little regretful.
If Jiang Xilin really had something to do, it would be too reckless for her to bring Xue Mingrui here.
She pulled Xue Mingrui and stopped at a distance from the Jiang family, not intending to enter the Jiang family's field of vision. The Jiang family seemed to be doing normal, with people coming in and out occasionally. She also saw Jiang Jingxun's sister smiling and walking out with her fiancé.
Xue Mingrui's understanding of the Jiang family is similar to that of the outside world. She wants to see the situation, but she doesn't know as much as Shen Congyu.
Chen Congyu was lost in thought when a car slowly drove past them from behind on another main road that did not lead to the Jiang family.
The car stopped less than ten meters away from them.
Shen Congyu noticed the car at this time.
Then the car door opened and a man got out.
It’s Jiang Qunqing.
Chen Congyu didn't expect that he would come back from this position at this time. She subconsciously wanted to turn around and hide her face, but Jiang Qunqing walked towards them.
He obviously recognized her, which is why he got out of the car.
Unable to hide, Chen Congyu had to face it.
Jiang Qunqing was surprised to see her here. He stretched out his hand to shake hands with Shen Congyu, and exhaled a light white mist as he spoke, "Why is Miss Shen here? Are you visiting Star City?"
