Chapter 269: Unrest
Since that night, Jiang Xilin no longer lived opposite Shen Congyu's house, and Shen Congyu hadn't seen him for more than ten days.
Not only that, few people around me mention it.
Only in Xue Mingrui's mouth could Shen Congyu hear his name.
Xue Mingrui talked to her about Yuan An. It was now certain that Yuan An really had someone she loved. Xue Mingrui was initially surprised and disbelieving, then sad and angry, and now disappointed and depressed. She hadn't seen Yuan An for many days.
"Sister Cong Yu, I didn't expect him to be so sudden. All along, I thought he was so good to me, so considerate, and we had been living in peace and stability for so many years. I thought that in two years..." Xue Mingrui could not hide his sadness when he said this, his tone distorted, "In two years, when I mature a little more, we can be together."
I used to think that Yuan An's steady personality was a good thing, but now it has become a bad thing. No matter who he meets or what he does, he always does it quietly before letting others know. By the time he finds out, the situation is already a foregone conclusion.
Xue Mingrui, who usually has a cheerful and lively personality, now has a lingering melancholy in his eyes.
When encountering such a thing, as long as there is true love, you have to go through it no matter what.
Although Shen Congyu had not experienced the same situation, she could fully understand Xue Mingrui's current mood. Even she was surprised when she first heard about this, let alone Xue Mingrui, how could he bear it.
Xue Mingrui fell into sadness for a short time, and during this period of time, she had stopped crying and making a fuss.
The original person's intention cannot be changed, what can Xue Mingrui do?
She wiped the tears from her face and said in a muffled voice, "Forget it, let's not talk about him anymore. I can't knock him unconscious and make him lose his memory. So let it be."
Chen Congyu patted her on the back and said he would comfort her again, but she took a deep breath and took the initiative to skip the topic.
"Brother Jiang went to Star City recently. Maybe something happened at home. After all, it's almost the New Year."
Shen Congyu nodded. After all, Jiang Xilin had told her he would go to Xingcheng before he left. She couldn't help but think of the night before she left his car, she took out his birthday gift from her coat pocket - the priceless ring, and secretly left it in his car.
She had thought about it before she left home for the appointment that day, so after dinner, she kept looking for an opportunity.
Since she didn't want to return it to him in person, she had no choice but to use this method.
He'll find out sooner or later.
Xue Mingrui continued, "I wonder if Brother Jiang will stay at the Jiang family for the New Year this year. After all, it's the first year. Whether he goes or not, he should be very busy before the New Year."
Xue Mingrui sniffed, "Sister Cong Yu, what happened between you and Brother Jiang?"
"I don't know either. At least he's not here now."
Chen Congyu and Xue Mingrui had similar thoughts. Jiang Xilin must have been busy before the New Year, so it was normal for her not to see him, let alone talk about love.
After getting her press card, she took time to go and relax with Xue Mingrui. She had come across the original case with Xue Mingrui several times, but only once, when he was with a strange woman.
This was probably the first time in all these years that Xue Mingrui spoke so coldly to Yuan An. Apart from saying hello, Yuan An introduced both parties out of politeness, and then Xue Mingrui took Shen Congyu away.
Although the meeting was brief, Shen Congyu could still tell that the woman next to Yuan An was completely different from Xue Mingrui.
She took Xue Mingrui to eat dessert to distract herself, and Xue Mingrui still tried to say that she was fine.
Chen Congyu was somewhat worried, and she wanted to tell Jiang Xilin to ask him to pay attention to Xue Mingrui and the original case. However, Jiang Xilin was doing something else and never replied to her.
She thought maybe he was too busy to reply to her, but he would definitely pay attention if he saw it.
Years ago, it snowed in Haicheng.
Chen Congyu had a few days off, so she went to Cheng Xishang's house and stayed with her for two days.
It was rare for the two of them to find each other free, so Cheng Xishang simply invited Chen Congyu to stay with him.
Chen Congyu sat in front of the French window and watched the snow falling in the yard. Cheng Xishang was talking on the phone not far away. She lowered her voice and looked at Chen Congyu's back, frowning at the content of the call.
The call ended after a few words. Cheng Xi stood there for a while and made up his mind.
She approached Shen Congyu and asked her, “Have you been in contact with Jiang Xilin recently?”
Shen Congyu turned around, not understanding why she suddenly mentioned Jiang Xilin.
She still answered truthfully: "No, he seems to be very busy. What's wrong?"
Cheng Xishang sighed softly and said, "I heard from people in Xingcheng that the Jiang family has been in turmoil recently."
