Chapter 77 Numbness
Jiang Xilin didn't respond to her thanks, but asked her, "Did Chen Yao attack you?"
Speaking of this, Chen Congyu was wrapped in a huge embarrassment.
She had never wanted Jiang Xilin to know what Chen Yao had done, but it was inevitable that she would be unable to hide it sooner or later.
At this point, she couldn't hide from it even if she didn't want to.
Besides, at that time tonight, she called him.
It was too urgent at that time, and it’s too late to regret now that I’ve calmed down.
She exhaled slowly, "He was afraid that I would hide from him, so he pulled my hair, threw my phone, and tied me up with a scarf from behind."
Yuan An was listening to her say this in a calm tone in the front, and couldn't help but glance back through the rearview mirror.
Jiang Xilin stroked the cuff of his other hand slowly and asked her, "What about before?"
Chen Congyu closed his eyes in despair, pinching his fingers until they turned white, "I don't want to say it."
"You don't want to tell me, or don't want me to know?"
Chen Congyu: “Is there any difference?”
Jiang Xilin looked at her sideways. "You don't want to say it, because you don't want anyone to know. You don't want to tell me, because you can tell no one but me. Which one is it?"
"I said I have them all, do you believe me?"
Jiang Xilin curled the corners of his mouth, mocking her insincere attitude.
Chen Congyu really couldn't open her mouth to speak.
She glanced ahead, then moved closer to Jiang Xilin. "I once said I wanted to break up with Chen Yao. It was true. Can you believe it now?"
"The reason I say this is because he would be like today, it is impossible for him to agree," Shen Congyu said with difficulty: "When I was abroad before, I had no choice. I returned to Haicheng to avoid him, but unfortunately he still came to me."
The last time she mentioned this to Jiang Xilin, he didn't believe what she said was true. In fact, Shen Congyu knew in her heart that she was not sincere enough.
From Jiang Xilin's perspective, she and Chen Yao are doing fine. When she said she wanted to break up, wasn't she joking?
So this time Chen Congyu learned his lesson.
She had to.
In order to get rid of Chen Yao first, she has to sacrifice something.
The light inside the car flickered, but one could still see the seriousness and heaviness in Shen Congyu's eyes.
Jiang Xilin saw it clearly.
In this way, all the lame excuses she had for returning to Haicheng alone and being in urgent need of money could be explained.
"You don't have a marriage certificate?"
Chen Congyu shook his head. At this point, some things were easier to say. Besides, compared to the worse, it was really nothing.
She said: "No, we had to hold the wedding."
Jiang Xilin raised his chin slightly, motioning her to continue.
Shen Congyu did not say that Chen Yao was introduced to her by her father, for fear of making Jiang Xilin unhappy.
After all, in the past few years, Shen's father had always opposed her and Jiang Xilin being together. Now he was going to tell Jiang Xilin that Chen Yao, whom he had carefully introduced to her, was like this. What would Jiang Xilin think?
So what Shen Congyu and Jiang Xilin said was that it started when Chen Yao pursued her, but she was unwilling to start.
Later, Chen Yao was hurt by her, and she was targeted by the Chen family and almost went to jail. She finally reconciled with Chen Yao on the condition of agreeing to marry him.
This explains why she and Chen Yao only had a wedding but did not register their marriage.
It also makes sense that she later ran back to Haicheng and hid from Chen Yao.
Chen Congyu removed all the saddest and most shameful contents in the middle.
She was almost numb as she said this.
No matter how many times you say it to others, it is not as good as saying it once in front of Jiang Xilin.
The car suddenly bumped into the rear of the car in front. Yuan An quickly adjusted himself and said, "Sorry, I was distracted."
He was also honest, and after listening to what Shen Congyu said, it was inevitable that he would lose his focus.
Shen Congyu pursed her lips and looked at Jiang Xilin.
Jiang Xilin didn't speak for a long time.
Not only was the original case unexpected, but Jiang Xilin also didn't expect that she had experienced so much in the past few years abroad.
Those monthly survey reports may look like what many people see on the surface: bright and shiny on the outside, but shabby on the inside.
Jiang Xilin didn't say anything about investigating them.
His silence made Shen Congyu feel very uneasy.
She was afraid that he would think she was stupid and that instead of having a good life after leaving him, her life would become a mess.
She bit her lower lip hard and took the initiative to say: "If you want to laugh at me, go ahead, I'm mentally prepared."
Jiang Xilin glanced at her.
"Mocking you isn't the point. Knowing you're not doing well and have no one to back you up with, won't it be easier for me to bully you in the future?"
Chen Congyu felt very uncomfortable, and she couldn't explain where this discomfort came from.
She wanted to say to Jiang Xilin: Then you have to help me get rid of Chen Yao first, otherwise he will be too much of a nuisance.
But when the words came to her lips, she felt it was inappropriate and didn't say it.
Jiang Xilin was used to her silence and didn't care about her answer.
He asked his: "I can give you a chance to get rid of Chen Yao, do you want it?"
"Are you really going to help me?"
"I thought you were going to ask if I could help."
Shen Congyu said: "Chen Yao's family is okay abroad, but here in Haicheng, I can see that it is of little help to him."
Even his so-called cousin didn't give him face and asked to go to Jiang Xilin when he encountered problems.
Jiang Xilin suddenly raised his hand, stroked from the top of Shen Congyu's head to her ear, and then pressed the back of her neck.
"I will help you. I want to see you suffer, but not because of others."
Shen Congyu didn't move.
In the past, she would never have reacted quietly like this, but after experiencing Chen Yao, she actually felt that being harassed by Jiang Xilin was not unbearable.
She looked at him steadily and said, "Then let me see how you solve it first."
Jiang Xilin pressed her closer to him and said, "Now that you've achieved your goal, you're not going to run away again, are you?"
Chen Congyu's breathing stagnated.
Did he know that she was about to leave not long ago?
She shook her head.
"I can't even hide from Chen Yao, where else can I run to?"
Jiang Xilin didn't say whether he believed it or not.
Anyway, he kissed her on the lips, his eyes deep and burning.
Seeing this, Shen Congyu was very worried that he would want to do that kind of thing in the car.
Fortunately, he then let go of my hand and said, "Come to my place tonight."
Chen Congyu felt relieved, and she realized that the route Yuan An drove was not the way to take her home.
Jiang Xilin didn't even give her a chance to refuse.
He leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest. Chen Congyu quietly opened his palms and rubbed away the sweat on his palms.
She didn't know when the coldness in her body disappeared.
No. 118 Jinghu.
Chen Congyu hadn't been here for a while. The last time she came here, she thought she would never have to come here again.
Unfortunately, after going around in circles, she still couldn't escape.
Yuan An parked the car. It was getting late, so Jiang Xilin asked him to stay overnight.
Chen Congyu was inexplicably nervous.
It was one thing for Yuan An and Xue Mingrui to know about her and Jiang Xilin, but it was another thing for them to actually see it.
