Stand-in Relationship - Chap 14
Xu Chengyan listened, but smiled politely, and said gently: “The smell of smoke in the bar is quite strong.”
Chi Yi leaned on the back of the chair and said casually: “Indeed, Xiu Zhu’s health is not yet healthy, it is not suitable to go to the bar.”
Shen Xiuzhu smiled gently, “It’s okay, the doctor recently said that I’m feeling better, and it’s fine to go to the bar.”
Someone in the room immediately disapproved and said, “That’s not okay, we are fine if you don’t drink. If you have a problem, that’s not okay for us.”
“That’s it! It’s the same in a teahouse!”
Xu Chengyan held the teacup and listened to the surrounding voices, and suddenly felt that he seemed a little redundant.
He has been with his husband for five years, but in five years, he has not been able to make his friends accept him.
Every time, he could vaguely feel the exclusion of those people, and the slight ridicule.
He also tried hard, but found that no matter how hard he tried, people who hated him would always hate him.
He didn’t have such a good background, and sometimes he didn’t understand the topics discussed by the rich second generation.
But Shen Xiuzhu is different from him.
The young master of the Shen family grew up with his husband since he was a child, and they all belonged to the same class circle.
The young master who was doted on and grew up was liked by everyone around him.
The gap between him and the young master is really too big.
It’s like cheap and low-quality cottage products on the roadside, and exquisite genuine products in the counter.
Xu Chengyan drank black tea and let himself calm down first.
Mr. is still here, he can’t lose his temper.
And the others in the room were still talking about Shen Xiuzhu’s poor health.
“If it wasn’t for the kidnapping, Xiu Zhu’s body wouldn’t be like this…”
“Okay, don’t mention it.” Someone next to him interrupted.
For a while, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little weird, and no one spoke again.
Also because of the mention of kidnapping, everyone else looked at He Yang and Shen Xiuzhu unknowingly.
He Yang didn’t react at all, just got up and said lightly, “Go back.”
Seeing that Mr. Xu was leaving, Xu Chengyan also got up and prepared to leave.
And at this moment, not far away, Shen Xiuzhu leaned over slightly and took a teacup on the table.
For a moment, Xu Chengyan smelled the cold scent of cedar on Shen Xiuzhu—
Snow season forest.
Xu Chengyan was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and left behind the man.
The car was parked outside the restaurant, Xu Chengyan just took out the car keys when he saw the man reaching out.
He Yang: “I’ll start.”
Xu Chengyan handed over the car keys and sat in the passenger seat, feeling a little tired.
Xu Chengyan closed his eyes and fell asleep unconsciously.
When Xu Chengyan felt the car stopped, he thought he had arrived home, but when he looked out the window, he found that he was still outside.
Xu Chengyan looked at the man beside him and couldn’t help shouting, “Sir?”
“To buy something.” The man unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car.
Xu Chengyan stayed in the car and waited quietly for a while.
Not long after, He Yang came back with a dessert in his hand.
He Yang put the dessert in Xu Chengyan’s arms and continued to drive.
Xu Chengyan looked at the dessert box on his lap, opened the box slightly, and saw a small cake inside.
He knew this old-fashioned dessert shop, and Mr. often went back to the shop to buy cakes for him.
However, he doesn’t eat sweets.
Before, he never thought about why Mr. always likes to buy desserts for him. He thought that he was used to buying desserts, so he didn’t mention it to him. Anyway, as long as Mr. bought it, he liked it.
It’s just that now, he’s a little unsure.
The clothes in his closet are exactly the same as those of Shen Xiuzhu. The watch and perfume that his husband gave him are the same as those of Shen Xiuzhu…
What about the cake?
Is it because Shen Xiuzhu also likes to eat cakes, so Mr. will buy cakes every time?
Xu Chengyan couldn’t help but look at the person beside him and opened his mouth, but in the end he didn’t speak.
Anyway, he have already guessed the answer, so there is no need to ask again.
He is just a cheap, easily replaceable, inferior product.
When he got back to the apartment, it was almost eleven o’clock in the evening.
Xu Chengyan took a shower and lay on the bed, but he couldn’t sleep with his eyes open.
The man was lying beside him, but he was still very insecure now.
Obviously, the two of them were so close to each other that they were lying on the same bed, but he felt very far away from his husband.
Xu Chengyan shouted, “Sir.”
“Huh?” The man replied lazily.
“Can I continue to stay by Mr. Xu’s side?” Xu Chengyan asked.
He remembered that at the beginning, when he confessed to his husband, he did not agree.
However, the husband agreed to let him stay by his side, but without a name.
At that time, he thought that if there is no status, there is no status, as long as he can be by his side.
Then this stay last five years.
He thought that he could stay by his side forever, even without a title, until Shen Xiuzhu came back.
He and his husband were never be the lovers, and the husband promised nothing to him, they could end their deformed relationship at any time.
Xu Chengyan opened his eyes and looked at the man in front of him, waiting for the man’s reply.
And the man just said lightly: “Don’t think about it.”
“Well.” Xu Chengyan lowered his eyes and didn’t bring up the topic again.
Before falling asleep, Xu Chengyan suddenly remembered the kidnapping case of a wealthy family that caused a sensation in the country ten years ago——
It was the young master of the Shen family who saved Mr.
That kidnapping case was really sensational, and he still remembers the kidnapping case to this day.
The kidnappers kidnapped the eldest young master of the He family, but at that time, the young master He happened to be staying with the young master of the Shen family.
The He family and the Shen family hurriedly prepared the ransom and prepared to trade with the kidnappers.
And Young Master He and Young Master Shen were locked in the warehouse, and overheard the conversation between the kidnappers. Those kidnappers didn’t intend to stay alive, and they tore up the ticket when they got the ransom.
The two had to take advantage of the opportunity to escape in the middle of the night, but they were soon discovered by the kidnappers and fled all the way. Young Master Shen also helped Young Master He block the knife.
Until they escaped to the cliff by the sea, they were forced to have no choice but to jump off the cliff.
Two teenagers were in the sea, leaning on a floating wooden board, struggling to survive.
Young Master Shen tried his best to protect Young Master He, and was almost unable to save him from drowning until he was finally discovered by the police.
And the root of the illness of the young master of the Shen family was also left at that time.
Childhood sweethearts, no guesses, but still the kindness of saving lives.
It’s no wonder that Mr. has always been obsessed with it.
How could he be better than this White Moonlight.
