Chapter 58 No One Knows (Revised)
Jiang Xilin and Qi Ming walked to the balcony one after another. Qi Ming was smoking a cigarette, and the smell of cigarettes drifted to Jiang Xilin, and he frowned.
Qi Ming was still thinking about what Shen You said not long ago and did not notice Jiang Xilin's expression.
When they were alone, he took a long drag on his cigarette before saying, "How much do you know about Chen Congyu?"
Jiang Xilin was quite calm. He knew that apart from Chen Congyu, what else could Qi Ming talk to him about?
But Qi Ming wouldn't ask these questions for no reason.
So Jiang Xilin leaned lazily against the window and asked her, "Why do you ask this suddenly?"
Qi Ming: "I just want to know how much you know first, so that I can decide how to tell you."
Jiang Xilin was too lazy to go around in circles with him.
He made a gesture to leave, "Forget it."
Qi Ming couldn't keep his composure like him. He blocked his way and said, "You're such a boring guy. How can a woman like you?"
Then he continued, "Seeing that you have a special relationship with that woman, Chen Congyu, and she doesn't like me, I want to cause her some trouble through you. For example, do you know that she has a man abroad?"
Jiang Xilin's eyes darkened. "What kind of man?"
When asked this question, Qi Ming thought Jiang Xilin had no idea about it at all.
He took the last puff of his cigarette before saying, "He's not an ordinary man. He introduced himself to others as Chen Congyu's husband. Damn, he's so shameless. Is this the same trick men use to get ahead these days?"
The news that he was Shen Congyu's husband shocked Qi Ming greatly, so he didn't notice the subtle changes in Jiang Xilin's eyes.
Jiang Xilin slowly asked him: "How do you know it's not true?"
"What a bullshit, they haven't even registered their marriage, they don't even have a certificate. Even if he is really Chen Congyu's man, at most he would call me husband when they are tired of each other, and you take it seriously."
Jiang Xilin listened, his attention fixed on one point.
He repeated, "Not registered for marriage?"
"Yeah," Qi Ming didn't know what Jiang Xilin noticed, and said to himself, "Chen Congyu's cheap brother said that the man asked him to meet and said he was Chen Congyu's husband right away, which scared Shen You a lot. Later, Chen Congyu went and stopped him from shouting, saying that they didn't even get a marriage certificate."
The area they were staying in was relatively quiet, but when the music got louder, it would inevitably spread over here. A wave of noisy sound covered them, and Jiang Xilin remained silent for a long time.
Qi Ming crushed the cigarette and leaned against the seat next to Jiang Xilin. He was going to discuss this matter with Jiang Xilin now. Jiang Xilin didn't know that Shen Congyu had a man. How would he treat Shen Congyu later?
This is Qi Ming’s logic.
Just pick a fight between them.
He added, "I think this is probably the boyfriend that Chen Congyu met when she was abroad. Now he has come to Haicheng. She has been keeping this a secret."
Jiang Xilin finally said, "Why are you telling me this?"
"Isn't she following you now? Don't you care? Don't you want to know?"
Qi Ming felt that this definitely wouldn't happen.
He is also a man. Even if Chen Congyu agreed to follow him, he would have to go back and ask for an explanation if this happened.
But he couldn't figure out Jiang Xilin's reaction.
Maybe the light here was too poor and he didn't see it?
Qi Ming asked three questions in one sentence. Jiang Xilin didn't deny any of them, but he also didn't admit any of them.
He said, "No matter what, it's not your turn."
Qi Ming said "Hey" and wanted to argue with Jiang Xilin carefully, but the man walked away coldly and ruthlessly.
Watching Jiang Xilin's back blend into the restless crowd, Qi Ming gave up chasing him to compete for first or second place. He just didn't believe that Jiang Xilin could remain indifferent.
It is best that when the snipe and the clam fight, he, the fisherman, benefits.
He also wanted to try and see what else was so good about Chen Congyu besides her appearance.
Qi Ming thought that Shen You might not know about Chen Congyu and Jiang Xilin. However, Shen You was right about one thing: Chen Congyu was indeed quite capable.
…
Jiang Xilin returned to his original seat and ordered a glass of wine. Yan Zhao came over and asked him where he had been.
"I went to talk to you for a few minutes."
Seeing that he wanted to drink, Yan Zhao asked, "Didn't you say you wouldn't drink tonight?"
Jiang Xilin: "I'm thirsty."
He took out his cell phone and sent a message to Yuan An, asking if he had missed anything in his investigation of Shen Congyu in recent years.
The original case quickly replied: [I can find no such information.]
He immediately realized that something was wrong.
Jiang Xilin: [They didn’t get a marriage certificate.]
Now it was Yuan An's turn to be surprised.
But if you think about it carefully, it can be explained.
Everyone who knew Chen Congyu and Chen Yao knew that they had a wedding and had been together for so long, so of course they assumed it was a formal marriage. Who would have thought that it was not registered at all?
Explanations aside, the original author is still curious: [How could this happen?]
Jiang Xilin: [Check again.]
Seeing him put away his phone, Yan Zhao casually asked, "It's the birthday of that kid named Xue next to you in a few days. What are you going to give him?"
Jiang Xilin was ready.
He said to Yan Zhao, "I guess I'll need you to bring it to her for me when the time comes."
"You're not going?"
"I have a project that has been scheduled for a long time, and I will have to go on a business trip when the time comes, so it's not certain."
…
Chen Congyu stayed at home alone most of the time. As for Chen Yao, it seemed that he had something else to do at home. Apart from finding reasons to call her out, he never came to visit her.
Shen Congyu got the news from Jiang Xilin from Xue Mingrui.
She couldn't take care of any more situations, so she had to take things as they came.
What she didn't know was that Jiang Xilin turned around and looked for Shen You.
Xue Mingrui didn't know about this. Jiang Xilin didn't tell her anything related to Chen Congyu, so apart from the original case, no third person knew about the meeting between the two.
Jiang Xilin asked Shen You to meet him. Shen You thought he was lucky and that the company wanted to cooperate with Jiang Xilin, and Jiang Xilin actually saw it.
Finally, when they met the person, Jiang Xilin came up to ask about Chen Congyu.
Shen You was a little confused and hadn't realized what Jiang Xilin meant. He repeated, "Mr. Jiang, are you asking if my sister has a boyfriend abroad?"
Jiang Xilin nodded.
Shen You's eyes rolled, and all his thoughts were at work.
"I don't know if she has one. I've never heard of it. My dad never mentioned it when he was alive. But a few days ago, someone came to me and said that he had been with my sister for several years and that they were married."
Shen You was telling the truth.
This shows that, at least in the Shen family, except for the late Shen's father, no one knew that Shen Congyu was married abroad.
Jiang Xilin turned the teacup in his hand thoughtfully.
Perhaps, here in Haicheng, no one knew that Chen Congyu was abroad.
This is very wrong. They clearly had a wedding and people abroad said they were husband and wife, but they haven't even had a marriage certificate for several years.
Although they are clearly husband and wife, this news seems to be kept strictly secret in Haicheng.
Is this normal?
