Stand-in Relationship - Chap 114
A group of people left the venue noisily, ready to go to a nearby barbecue restaurant for a late night snack.
There was a small garden outside the venue, Xu Chengyan was walking behind, and when he casually glanced up without thinking, he suddenly noticed a figure in the garden.
Xu Chengyan froze for a moment and stared at that back for a few seconds, then after reacting, he said to Su Tang, “Su Su, you guys go ahead, I have something to do, I’ll come later.”
“Okay.” Su Tang nodded and turned around to go first.
Xu Chengyan also walked towards the garden side, getting closer and closer to that figure.
In the garden, the man stood alone under the street lamp, a flash of scarlet glowing on his fingertips, not noticing anyone approaching.
Xu Chengyan looked at the man’s back and shouted softly, “He Yang.”
When He Yang heard the voice, he subconsciously glanced down at the cigarette in his hand.
Only after he extinguished the cigarette did He Yang turn back.
Xu Chengyan also came to He Yang’s side and smiled, “I didn’t see you inside just now and thought you had left.”
“Came out for some fresh air.” He Yang’s tone was flat as he casually asked, “Going back?”
Xu Chengyan returned, “Having a late night snack with my friends.”
He Yang nodded and did not speak again.
Xu Chengyan hesitated for a moment, but still spoke out, “Friday morning, I have time,”
“Hmm?”
“Do you want to have dinner together?” Xu Chengyan looked up and met He Yang’s gaze.
At this moment, He Yang’s back was facing to the streetlight, half of his face still hidden in the darkness, his emotion could not be seen on his face and he was silent.
After a long time, He Yang finally reacted and asked, “What time is it?”
“I have to go to the company at one o’clock in the afternoon.” Xu Chengyan said, “It’s okay before one o’clock, it’s depend on when is convenient for you.”
He Yang was quiet for a few seconds before he said, “Then eight o’clock in the morning? I’ll take you to the company at one o’clock.”
When Xu Chengyan heard this, he couldn’t help but chuckle and asked, “Does it take five hours to eat?”
He Yang didn’t say anything, his dark eyes were obscure, just quietly stared at the youth in front of him.
“It will be eight o’clock then.” Xu Chengyan responded, “Meet at the Blue Café?”
He Yang nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll pick you up.”
“No need.” Xu Chengyan smiled, “It’s not far away, I’ll just go straight there.”
“Mm.”
“I’m going to have a snack first.” Xu Chengyan took a few steps to the side, a smile on his face, “See you on Friday then?”
“See you on Friday.”
After leaving, Xu Chengyan went to the barbecue restaurant and went into the private room.
The group had a noisy snack and played until the early hours of the morning.
Xu Chengyan also had a little wine and was slightly drunk, his head was dizzy and he was helped to get into the car by his assistant.
The assistant took Xu Chengyan back to his apartment and poured a cup of hot water over.
Xu Chengyan leaned back on the sofa, drank some hot water and eased a little.
