Chapter 3: Not a long-term solution
After a table of dishes was served, Shen Congyu also moved from the piano to the dining table and sat between the two men.
Qi Ming was still telling Jiang Xilin that he and Shen Congyu had known each other before and had been in touch recently. He thought that Jiang Xilin's relationship with Shen Congyu was similar to his.
This time, Jiang Xilin didn't let Chen Congyu pour the wine. Instead, he poured the glass in front of her and said, "Mr. Qi supports you so much, how are you going to thank him?"
Chen Congyu looked at him for a moment, and his scalp tightened.
She raised her glass to toast Qi Ming, but Qi Ming smiled and said, "We're all friends, why should I thank you?"
"Such a good friend, why haven't I heard you mention him before?" This question was asked to Chen Congyu.
Chen Congyu clenched the wine glass tightly, unable to tell the truth.
Because when she was with Jiang Xilin, she never brought him into her circle of friends. She had many friends at that time, and although none of them were great figures, they were considered upper-middle class in Haicheng. She never took the initiative to bring Jiang Xilin to meet them.
He either attends classes or works every day, and spends the rest of his time with her, so he has no friends.
It seems that there is only each other in the world of two people, but it seems that they both know in their hearts that she was forced.
So when Jiang Xilin asked this at this moment, Shen Congyu couldn't say that in the eyes of her friends, almost no one knew of his existence.
Chen Congyu didn't want to die.
Qi Ming didn't notice Chen Congyu's hesitation and said generously: "We weren't that familiar with each other before, but since we met again, it means we are destined to be together. We will be able to get to know each other in the future."
He just wanted to show his respect, clinked his glass with Chen Congyu and took a sip of wine, not knowing that Chen Congyu's heart was beating like a drum.
Jiang Xilin stared at them, tapping the table with his fingertips, his eyes dark and gloomy.
Qi Ming finished his drink and said, "By the way, Cong Yu, do you want to change jobs? I can introduce you to one."
"This isn't good," Jiang Xilin said. "You're trying to poach my employees right in front of me?"
Qi Ming never thought that Shen Congyu was doing this job through Boss Direct Hire.
He didn't think much of it. "I just don't think playing the piano here is a long-term solution."
Jiang Xilin ignored him and put his hand on Shen Congyu's shoulder and asked her, "Are you going?"
Only Shen Congyu knew how much strength he had in his hands.
How could she dare to agree? Besides, the salary here is very high.
"Thank you, Mr. Qi. I'm fine here and I don't plan to change jobs for the time being."
She was unwilling, but Qi Ming didn't force her. He wanted to correct her, "Why are you still calling Mr. Qi so distant? Aren't we friends? I..."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Xilin pushed the chair away and stood up, looking down at Shen Congyu condescendingly, "It's time to go."
Chen Congyu couldn't wait and said something to Qi Ming out of politeness.
Qi Ming: "Leaving now? Aren't we going to have dinner?"
No one answered him, and Jiang Xilin pulled Shen Congyu out.
Looking at his hand tightly gripping Shen Congyu's arm, Qi Ming frowned, and only then figured out the trick.
When they got outside, Chen Congyu couldn't keep up with Jiang Xilin's pace, twisted her ankle, and gasped in pain.
This person just walked away on his own.
Shen Congyu shook him off with force.
Just as she was about to speak, her cell phone rang.
Not wanting to face Jiang Xilin, Shen Congyu lowered her head to look at her phone. Qi Ming sent a message asking her if she was bullied by Jiang Xilin.
How stupid! I only realized it now.
Shen Congyu wanted to reply that he was fine, but Jiang Xilin suddenly took away her phone and saw the content on it.
“Give it back to me…” Shen Congyu stretched out his hand to grab it.
Jiang Xilin held her down with one hand while typing rapidly with the other. When he returned the phone to her, he had already deleted Qi Ming.
