Chapter 61 Charm
As soon as Shen Congyu heard Jiang Xilin's name, he turned around immediately.
He walked silently and she didn't know when he appeared behind her.
The phone in Shen Congyu's hand had just finished ringing, and she explained: "I was in a hurry to answer the call, so I didn't pay attention."
She was wondering how Yan Zhao suddenly appeared.
She didn't want to argue with them, so she took the initiative and said, "If it really doesn't work, I'll compensate you for the cleaning fee."
Yan Zhao: "So generous?"
Hearing the inexplicable irony in his tone, Shen Congyu didn't want to talk to him.
She said stubbornly, "If you don't mind, that would be even better."
"I mind, please think of another way."
“You…” Chen Congyu was speechless.
Jiang Xilin suddenly said, "Forget it, I have spare clothes in the car, go get them and change."
He actually helped Shen Congyu out of trouble.
Yan Zhao raised his eyebrows, but did not make things difficult for Shen Congyu. He put down his wine glass and walked away.
Chen Congyu wanted to leave too. She hesitated and said to Jiang Xilin, "Thank you."
"Whose call are you rushing to answer?"
"This is none of your business."
Chen Congyu held the phone, wanting to call back quickly to ask Wen Song if something had happened.
Jiang Xilin didn't mean to let her go.
"At least I just helped you, otherwise you would have to pay a sum of money."
Chen Congyu: "I am thanking you for helping me out, but who calls me is my privacy."
Jiang Xilin changed the question: "Why didn't you bring your husband here today?"
No matter who mentioned Chen Yao now, Shen Congyu would be instantly displeased, especially if that person was Jiang Xilin.
She couldn't help but wonder if he had thought of some new way to torment her.
So Shen Congyu said coldly: “If Mr. Jiang is really curious about him, I will simply arrange for you to meet.”
She said this in anger because she didn't want Jiang Xilin to mention it again.
Who knew Jiang Xilin had no scruples, "Okay. Let me see what kind of man you are."
Chen Congyu would have to be crazy to actually do that.
She didn't want to pay attention to him, but because she didn't want to make things awkward, she added, "I don't need to take him with me everywhere I go."
"Did you have a fight?"
Shen Congyu wanted to nod, but then she remembered in time that he didn't believe her attitude at all that time, so she felt there was no need to tell him.
She turned her face away, "No. But I have my own circle of friends, it's normal for him not to come."
Jiang Xilin stared at her for a moment.
His gaze is always very noticeable. When he stares at you, it feels like everything hidden in your heart can be seen through.
Chen Congyu's palms were sweating from being looked at. Just as he was thinking of an excuse to leave, Wen Song called again.
Giving her the chance to walk away, "I'm going to answer the phone."
She left quickly, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that she didn't want to stay any longer.
Jiang Xilin stared at her back until she was completely out of sight.
Shen Congyu was on the phone for nearly fifteen minutes. When he returned to the living room, Xue Mingrui was playing mahjong with three other people.
Jiang Xilin sat behind Xue Mingrui and helped her look at the cards.
Seeing this, Shen Congyu didn't go over.
She said hello to Xue Mingrui, did not join any other games, and found a place to answer messages on her phone.
She has received replies to the resume she submitted a few days ago. She studied journalism in college and had a short internship of more than two months while abroad, but was forced to terminate it because of Chen Yao.
Her studies had been delayed for a year because of him, and her internship had also gone wrong. She was sure that Chen Yao was definitely her nemesis.
Now that she has to find a job on her own to make a living, her studies, which have been messed up by Chen Yao, seem too important.
Her school is of high quality and her major is also top-notch there, but publishing houses and newspapers have strict recruitment requirements, which she does not meet.
Chen Congyu had a headache from looking at his phone, so he just let his mind go blank.
Xue Mingrui, Jiang Xilin is gone.
Chen Congyu knew how to play mahjong, and she had learned it from Xue Mingrui. The two of them, along with Jiang Xilin and Yuan An, would occasionally play a few rounds, and they taught her how to play.
I haven't touched it in recent years.
Not seeing Jiang Xilin, Shen Congyu thought he would not come back, so she sat down.
Their fight was not small, but Xue Mingrui had good luck today. She was almost winning from the beginning till now.
After several rounds, Xue Mingrui was so lucky that he didn't even want to answer his phone when it rang.
When she saw it was her father calling, she stopped and asked Chen Congyu to take her place.
Chen Congyu was still a little unfamiliar with the game and was afraid of losing to Xue Mingrui, so she was very careful and cautious when looking at the cards.
When it was her turn, she took out a card to play, but a hand reached out from behind and held it down.
Chen Congyu tilted his head to the side, and his face was very close to Jiang Xilin's.
Her heart skipped a beat and she immediately stepped back.
In order to press her card, Jiang Xilin leaned forward slightly, closing the distance between them.
The fingers also touched at that moment.
Chen Congyu turned around in a panic, put away the card he was about to play, and unconsciously rubbed the finger that was touched by Jiang Xilin.
Jiang Xilin said beside her to play another card.
Chen Congyu did it without thinking.
For a few brief seconds, the other three people at the table didn't notice at all.
But Shen Congyu was different. She felt the temperature of Jiang Xilin's fingers, which were cool. The posture of reaching out from behind her, with his arm covering her arm, the difference between men and women was particularly obvious.
If Jiang Xilin didn't say anything to make things difficult for her and they got along peacefully, his unique sexual charm would easily make people think too much.
Even Shen Congyu had to admit this.
He still sat behind her and looked at the cards.
I just gave instructions that time, but when I gave instructions for the second time, the people around me were unhappy and asked, "Why do you need help from outside?"
Before Shen Congyu could speak, Jiang Xilin said slowly from behind: "You are all veterans, what's wrong with me helping to look at the cards?"
It made sense, but Shen Congyu still felt it wasn't enough and didn't want people to think too much, "I'm not very good at it. After all, I'm playing for Ruirui, and I'm afraid of losing to her."
Xue Mingrui was the birthday boy, so he would probably be back soon after answering the phone. Chen Congyu couldn't play more than two rounds, so the other three didn't care.
Seeing that no one mentioned it again, Chen Congyu opened his palm to let the wetness in his palm dissipate.
When Jiang Xilin helped her look at the cards, he would always talk in her ear. Although he didn't play again, she might be feeling guilty and always felt that even if they were talking, the distance was too close.
She was on pins and needles.
On the other hand, there was nothing wrong with Jiang Xilin.
Fortunately, Xue Mingrui came back after the game ended, and Shen Congyu quickly gave her a seat.
When she stood up, she inevitably came into contact with Jiang Xilin. She clenched her fingers again and stopped staying at the card table, wanting to stay as far away from him as possible.
Before dinner in the evening, a man came in from outside, found Chen Congyu and said that someone was looking for her outside.
I don’t know how it was said, but someone had already brought it in.
Chen Congyu looked over and her smile disappeared.
