Abstinence Pei, don't be too sweet when chasing your wife

Chapter 253: The crisis of trust is surging undercurrent

After the chaos in the bar, Jiang Xue's provocation was like a stone thrown into a calm lake. Although it did not completely destroy Jiang Chengjun's trust in Fang Wenwen, it did cause ripples.

In the past few days, Fang Wenwen noticed a change in Jiang Chengjun's attitude.

Every time she called, the tone of voice coming from the receiver was lukewarm, the answers were brief and perfunctory, and he always hung up the phone with the excuse of being busy.

Fang Wenwen held the phone in her hand, an ominous premonition gathering in her heart like a dark cloud.

She thought it over again and again and decided not to sit there and wait for death.

She wanted to ask Jiang Chengjun in person. She couldn't let this hard-earned relationship be torn apart without any reason.

In the Jiang family garden, Jiang Chengjun was sitting on a rattan chair holding a document, thinking about something.

Hearing footsteps, he looked up and saw Fang Wenwen, a barely perceptible complex emotion flashed in his eyes, a feeling of familiarity and alienation.

"Cheng Jun, I'm here." Fang Wenwen spoke first, breaking the awkward silence.

Jiang Chengjun stood up and nodded slightly: "Well, sit down."

The two sat opposite each other, and for a moment they had nothing to say.

Fang Wenwen was the first to break the deadlock, her eyes full of grievance and confusion: "Chengjun, what happened to you these days? I called you, but you were always so cold. Did I do something wrong?"

Jiang Chengjun avoided her gaze and said, "Nothing, I've just been having a lot of business troubles lately."

How could Fang Wenwen believe such a perfunctory reason: "Cheng Jun, I know you've been under a lot of pressure recently, but I feel that you're not treating me the same as before. We've been friends for so many years, is there anything you can't tell me? Did someone whisper something in your ear?"

Jiang Chengjun's heart suddenly shook, and Jiang Xue's words in the garden that day emerged in his mind.

The accusations and evidence linger like ghosts.

He raised his eyes to look at Fang Wenwen, trying to find a trace of guilt or flaw on her face, but all he saw was sincerity and anxiety.

"No, don't think too much about it." Jiang Chengjun's tone was a little stiff.

Fang Wenwen's heart sank. Her eyes were red and she choked up, "Chengjun, have you forgotten the days when we worked hard together? We have endured so many days and nights together, analyzing problems and looking for solutions."

Jiang Chengjun's face changed slightly. He remembered Fang Wenwen's companionship and dedication during that period, but Jiang Xue's description of the scene of her contact with Lin's vice president made it difficult for him to dispel the doubts in his heart.

"I know you have paid a lot, but some things..." Jiang Chengjun hesitated to speak.

Fang Wenwen noticed his hesitation and became even more flustered.

She eagerly held Jiang Chengjun's hand: "Chengjun, what's the matter? Please explain it clearly, don't make me feel so uncomfortable."

Jiang Chengjun pulled his hand back and stood up. "Recently, some information in the company has been leaked. The situation of the new product launch conference was known in advance by our competitors. Some people also said that they saw you in contact with people from a competitor's company..." He finally said it.

Fang Wenwen's face was full of disbelief: "How could I do such a thing? Cheng Jun, you know me well!" Her tears burst out. Yes, he did not see it with his own eyes, but Jiang Xue's words were too realistic, which put him in a dilemma.

Jiang Chengjun recalled that Fang Wenwen was indeed pale and bedridden at the time, and his doubts were slightly shaken. But Jiang Xue's words were like a warning bell ringing in his ears, making him dare not let down his guard easily.

"I know you were sick at that time, but later..." Jiang Chengjun's words were choked by hesitation again.

Fang Wenwen looked at Jiang Chengjun's appearance and felt sad.

She realized that Jiang Chengjun looked at Fang Wenwen who was almost out of control.

"I don't want to believe it either, but the evidence..." The evidence he was referring to was nothing more than Jiang Xue's exaggerated description, but at this moment, it became a thorn in his heart.

"What evidence? Did you see it with your own eyes?" Fang Wenwen stood up and walked towards Jiang Chengjun step by step, with anger and grievance in her eyes, "Just because of a few words from others, you doubt me?"

Jiang Chengjun was speechless. Words alone might not be enough to dispel the grudge in his heart. He had to produce more powerful evidence.

"Cheng Jun, it doesn't matter if you don't believe me. I will find out who is behind this and clear my name." Fang Wenwen gritted her teeth, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes.

She couldn't just sit there and let this relationship be destroyed. She wanted to take Gu Fanxing's property with Jiang Chengjun and live together forever.

Just as Fang Wenwen was about to leave, Jiang Xue walked out of the house with a barely perceptible hint of provocation on her face.

When Fang Wenwen saw Jiang Xue, she was immediately furious, and all the old and new hatreds came to her mind. "Jiang Xue, did you say something in front of Cheng Jun?" Fang Wenwen asked angrily.

Jiang Xue was slightly stunned, then pretended to be innocent: "Sister Wenwen, what are you talking about? Why would I do that kind of thing?" But the panic in her eyes was still caught by Fang Wenwen.

"Stop pretending! Cheng Jun's attitude towards me has changed drastically in the past few days. If it's not you who is trying to sow discord between them, who else could it be?" Fang Wenwen took a step forward, her voice becoming increasingly sharp, and the anger in her eyes seemed to devour Jiang Xue.

Jiang Xue took a small step back, still maintaining a smile on her face, but that smile seemed a little stiff under Fang Wenwen's gaze: "Sister Wenwen, please don't wrongly accuse a good person. My brother has been busy with business recently and is in a bad mood. How can you put the blame on me?"

"You dare to quibble!" Fang Wenwen was completely enraged. She raised her hand to grab Jiang Xue's collar, her nails flashing coldly in the sun. "You are such a sinister woman. You have been doing little things behind my back to destroy the relationship between me and Cheng Jun."

Jiang Xue didn't expect Fang Wenwen to suddenly attack her. She dodged in fear and shouted, "Are you crazy? My brother is right here, how dare you do this?" In a panic, a few strands of her hair fell down, covering her eyes awkwardly.

Seeing this, Jiang Chengjun hurried forward to separate the two people: "Stop making trouble! Calm down!" There was a hint of annoyance in his voice.

At this moment, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart. Fang Wenwen used to be elegant, intelligent and rational, but the Fang Wenwen in front of me now, who was raging and furious, was completely different from her past image.

He thought to himself, if someone hadn't touched my guilty conscience, how could I have lost my temper so easily?

Jiang Xue's words seemed to be confirmed at this moment. The balance of trust in his heart began to tilt sharply. He couldn't help but label Fang Wenwen's usual gentleness and understanding as a false disguise. He even firmly believed that he was deceived by her appearance.

Fang Wenwen pointed at Jiang Xue with tears streaming down her face: "Cheng Jun, look at her, she is the culprit, you can't be blinded by her." Tears flowed freely on her face, making her look somewhat miserable.

Jiang Xue also cried aggrievedly: "Brother, I really didn't do anything, how could she slander me like this?" She grabbed Jiang Chengjun's arm tightly, as if it was her last straw, and her body was still trembling slightly.

Seeing Jiang Chengjun remained silent, Fang Wenwen felt even more desperate. She shook off Jiang Chengjun's hand and said, "Okay, you two brothers and sisters have teamed up to bully me. I've seen through it." After saying that, she turned around angrily and walked away quickly, gradually disappearing at the end of the garden path.

Jiang Xue looked at Fang Wenwen's departing back and secretly felt fortunate. Although they almost came to a fight, at least her goal was achieved and the rift between Fang Wenwen and Cheng Jun became deeper.

Jiang Chengjun stood alone in the garden, looking in the direction where Fang Wenwen left, thinking for a long time...

With Fang Wenwen's departure, Jiang's Garden returned to peace, but beneath this peace, there was a danger that could erupt at any time.

The surging waves are waiting for the next opportunity to completely reveal all the contradictions.
