Stand-in Relationship - Chap 111
Qin Zhou smiled and nodded to the man, turned around and walked to the rest area next to him.
As he passed the table, Qin Zhou took a glass of champagne from the table and came to the sofa alone.
And when Qin Zhou turned his head, he saw the figure in the crowd at a glance.
He Yang was surrounded by guests, and many young men and women went over to strike up a conversation.
Despite the cold look on He Yang’s face, the enthusiasm of the others was not dampened and they all took the initiative to climb into conversation.
Qin Zhou lazily shook his wine glass and looked at the figure.
In a trance, it seemed as if he had gone back to the scene when he was eighteen years old and saw He Yang for the first time—
The tall man stood in the crowd, looking so indifferent and inaccessible.
The two of them were originally from different worlds and shouldn’t have crossed paths.
Everything seems to be back to the beginning again.
Each has its own life, and each living in peace.
Before the dinner was over, He Yang left early.
He Yang got in the car and returned to the old house.
He Yang took off his suit jacket and handed it to the housekeeper on the side.
The old housekeeper took the suit and asked, “Young Master He, would you like something to eat?”
“No need.” He Yang walked upstairs.
The housekeeper was behind him and continued: “The invitation letter for the birthday banquet has been prepared and is in the study.”
He Yang’s birthday was in March, and the housekeeper had already prepared the invitation letters in advance.
“Mm.” He Yang came to the study room on the second floor and saw a stack of exquisite invitations on the table, with a list of people placed next to it.
He Yang walked over, picked up the list of invited persons and at a glance, he saw the words “Qin Zhou” on the first line.
He Yang stared at those two words for a while, and asked, “Where is Qin Zhou’s invitation letter?”
The housekeeper searched through the invitation letters and took out Qin Zhou’s invitation letter.
He Yang put the invitation letter aside alone, took a pen again, and crossed out Qin Zhou’s name on the list.
The housekeeper on the side slightly stunned and asked, “Young Master He, don’t you need to invite Mr. Xu?”
He Yang said lightly: “No need.”
The housekeeper nodded and said nothing more.
He Yang asked again: “Is he asleep?”
The housekeeper reacted quickly and replied, “Master is in the bedroom, and Xiaowen is also over there too.”
He Yang then walked towards Elder He’s bedroom.
When He Yang passed by, he saw a middle-aged man sitting in his wheelchair reading a photo album, with a small cat nestled in his arms.
He Yang walked over slowly, and asked softly, “Still awake?”
The middle-aged man did not look up and continued to look at the old photos, “Look at the photos.”
He Yang also stopped talking, so he sat quietly on the chair next to him and looked at the photo album together with the middle-aged man.
On the photo album is a young woman with long hair, smiling at the camera.
