Chapter 57

For a moment, Chu Chen wondered if he should praise Huo Ling that he was really awesome.

Huo Ling was also a little embarrassed.

When the matter developed to this point, he himself felt a little absurd. At that time Wen Jiayu kept asking him for details, however he also didn't know why Chu Chen asked him whether Wen Jiayu made the medicine or not.

He couldn't answer, and he couldn't talk, and later it became what it was now.

Wiping the sweat from his hands, Huo Ling hesitated, and then said tentatively: "Both of you haven't met before, why don't you get to know each other first?"

As soon as these words came out, Chu Chen and Wen Jiayu looked at each other.

It was true that the two had never met before, but they still knew each other.

Just at this time, Huo Ling's bracelet rang. He looked at his bracelet, and his expression became a little more serious. He got up and said, "Sorry, I'll go out to answer the call first."

Chu Chen raised his eyebrows.

Wen Jiayu nodded and said, "Okay."

Only Chu Chen and Wen Jiayu were left in the room.

Chu Chen's gaze swept across Wen Jiayu's face who was opposite him.

He had to say that, as the protagonist, Wen Jiayu eas indeed good-looking.

He had the scent of books on his body, and his whole body exuded an aura of 'I'm very good, come and bully me'. Although he was thin, Wen Jiayu's face had a little baby fat, his long eyelashes were curly and curled up, his eyes were very beautiful almond eyes, big and round, and when he looked over occasionally, he looked like a vigilant deer.

He looked so cute, no wonder there were so many people liked him in the book.

Chu Chen knew Wen Jiayu.

On the one hand, through the book, he had seen part of Wen Jiayu's life content from a third perspective.

On the other hand, after time travelling, he discovered that the matter of the original owner was drugged and brought into the hotel, there was a high probability that it had something to do with Wen Jiayu. From this matter, he understood Wen Jiayu from the side.

When he looked at Wen Jiayu's expression, he obviously knew him too.

Chu Chen smiled casually, taking advantage of Huo Ling's absence, he deliberately tried to say: "Since brother A Ling said so, let me introduce myself. My name is Chu Chen, and I had a baby marriage with Brother A Ling when I was young. I almost got engaged to him not long ago, however because I made a mistake before, the engagement was postponed. You should understand the meaning of being postponed, right?"

Wen Jiayu tightened his grip on his clothes.

He said in low voice, "My name is Wen Jiayu, and I'm Huo Ling's... ex-boyfriend."

When Chu Chen read the novel, he knew that Wen Jiayu and Huo Ling had split up and reunited many times. He was not surprised when he heard Wen Jiayu's self-introduction. He nodded and said, "Then what brother A Ling said is right, we are indeed intimate friends."

Although Chu Chen didn't finish speaking, Wen Jiayu understood.

They were indeed intimate friends, and they all liked the same man.

Wen Jiayu's face was slightly pale, he pursed his lips and said nothing.

Chu Chen reached out and knocked on the table. When he saw Wen Jiayu startled like a little rabbit, he chuckled lightly, he also lowered his voice and said, "I don't think I'm a good person, and I didn't expect you to be a good person either. But I have to admit that you did a very good job in the hotel incident back then. The matter of lending someone a knife to kill another person, you have done this kind of thing a lot, right?"

[借刀杀人 jiè dāo shā rén: to lend sb a knife to kill sb(idiom); to get sb else to do one's dirty work; to attack using the strength of another]

Wen Jiayu was taken aback for a moment, with doubts on his face, and asked, "What do you mean about the hotel incident? What are you talking about?"

"You know it in your heart."

Chu Chen's tone was light.

Wen Jiayu frowned, he shook his head and said, "Don't blame me, I don't know what you said."

After he finished speaking, he came to Chu Chen's side and said harshly, "You still have time to come here to talk to me, why don't you take care of the Chu family first? As a member of the Chu family, your life is not very good now. What do you think? However don’t try to get money from Ah Ling, he won’t help the Chu family.”

Chu family?

Chu Chen looked at Wen Jiayu with a half-smile.

Sure enough, he just got off the spaceship, and he didn't know much about the current situation.

Chu Chen was about to explain that he had nothing to do with the Chu family, but Huo Ling pushed the door open and walked in: "I just had a work call."

It was not easy to continue the previous topic, so Chu Chen withdrew his gaze from Wen Jiayu.

As soon as Wen Jiayu saw Huo Ling coming in, he felt wronged and wanted to sue.

However the other party was still here...

He glanced at Chu Chen and said nothing.

After Huo Ling sat down, he recalled the reason for the gathering of the two of them this time, so he motioned to Chu Chen with his eyes. However seeing that Chu Chen didn't speak, he could only say, "Chu Chen, didn't you say that you had something to ask about the medicine to relieve mental riot?"

Chu Chen smiled and said, "I already know the answer, so I don't have anything to ask now."

Huo Ling coughed lightly, and asked under Wen Jiayu's gaze, "Then how do you know that the medicine was not made by Jiayu's mentor, but by Jiayu?"

This thing was indeed a bit strange.

When there was a little rumor about the medicine to relieve mental riot before, there were overwhelming voices praising Wen Jiayu's mentor. Now Wen Jiayu was only a student, at best an assistant, and most people didn't think about it at all.

Like him.

It never occurred to him before that the medicine was actually made by Wen Jiayu.

Chu Chen glanced at Huo Ling, and said lazily: "I'm more concerned about the content of this aspect. Therefore after this matter came out, I was also a little concerned about the practicality of this medicine. Later I checked his mentor on star network, only to find that Wen Jiayu's mentor had published dozens of academic papers before, but none of them was related to relieving mental riot. On the contrary, Wen Jiayu published two articles about this matter before. "

"A mentor who has never done related research, suddenly this mentor made a medicine to relieve mental riot, do you think I dare to believe it?"
