Stand-in Relationship - Chap 8
Knock-off.
Am I… a knockoff?
Xu Chengyan looked at the strange young man, and the more he looked, the more he felt that they were very similar.
If you cover the face and just look at the body shape and dress, they are almost exactly the same.
And the biggest difference between him and that person is a face.
That strange young man’s facial features are very soft, like a pampered young master, every move is very elegant.
Xu Chengyan turned his head to the side, looked at the cabin window on the side, and saw a pair of peach eyes reflected in the window.
Compared with the young man, his facial features are a bit more aggressive, but because he wears thin gold-rimmed glasses, he looks a little softer.
Xu Chengyan slowly raised his hand, almost trembling, and took off his glasses.
Some things, if he doesn’t go deep into it, doesn’t mean he doesn’t know.
He would rather pretend to be deceiving himself than break the peace.
Chi Yi, who was beside him, drank leisurely and sneered, as if he was laughing at the embarrassment of knock-offs.
“Counterfeit products can’t be compared to genuine products…”
Chi Yi sighed like he was talking to himself, but the volume of these words was just enough to be heard by Xu Chengyan.
Holding the wine glass, Chi Yi turned around and walked towards He Yang.
“Xiuzhu!” Chi Yi greeted the young man, “Why are you here so late?”
“There was a traffic jam on the way here, so it was a little delayed.” The young man smiled softly and looked at He Yang next to him, “But it’s okay, it’s just in time for the birthday.”
Xu Chengyan looked at the strange young man, his mind was almost blank.
Cultivating bamboo.
Shen Xiuzhu…
Xu Chengyan withdrew his gaze, turned around, looked at the blue sea, and forcibly diverted his attention.
Calm down.
Be calm.
Shen Xiuzhu is just an old friend of the husband, and he hasn’t come back for many years.
So now that the husband and Shen Xiuzhu meet again, it is understandable that the husband has a slightly special attitude towards Shen Xiuzhu.
After all, they are friends who have known each other for a long time.
It doesn’t matter.
Xu Chengyan closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
It just happened that he and Shen Xiuzhu collided in style.
It doesn’t matter.
It’s ok……
Xu Chengyan blew the sea breeze and gradually calmed down.
Jiang Lin was not far away, looked at He Yang and Shen Xiuzhu, then looked at Xu Chengyan who was standing alone on the railing and the cold wind was blowing, he finally walked towards Xu Chengyan.
“Sister-in-law?” Jiang Lin leaned over and asked cautiously, “Are you alright?”
Xu Chengyan woke up with a smile on his face, “I’m fine.”
Seeing Xu Chengyan like this, Jiang Lin was still not at ease, and asked again, “It’s windy outside, should my sister-in-law take a rest first?”
Jiang Lin really regarded Xu Chengyan as half of his family, but now that Shen Xiuzhu was back, he didn’t want his sister-in-law to be stimulated.
“It’s okay.” Xu Chengyan held the glasses and put them into his coat pocket.
After adjusting the state, Xu Chengyan turned around and walked towards He Yang step by step.
No matter what, Shen Xiuzhu is the guest of today’s birthday banquet, and he is going to receive the guest.
Xu Chengyan walked over step by step and shouted, “Sir.”
He Yang looked sideways and met Xu Chengyan’s gaze.
Xu Chengyan came to He Yang with a polite smile.
And when Xu Chengyan came over, he could still feel that all kinds of eyes around him were falling on him.
There are those who are gloating, those who watch a good show, those who are mocking…
The boys and buddies who were watching the fun and didn’t think it was a big deal all quieted down, and swept between the three of them vaguely, waiting for the good show to start.
Xu Chengyan controlled his emotions, with a polite smile on his face, he came to He Yang’s side, looked at Shen Xiuzhu opposite, and said hello: “Hello.”
Shen Xiuzhu also noticed Xu Chengyan, smiled and nodded, “Hello.”
Shen Xiuzhu stretched out his hand, “Shen Xiuzhu.”
“Xu Chengyan.” Xu Chengyan also stretched out his hand.
And at the moment when the two held one hand, Xu Chengyan suddenly saw the watch on Shen Xiuzhu’s wrist——
It is exactly the same as the watch in his hand.
Xu Chengyan lowered his eyes, retracted his hand, and asked the man beside him, “Sir, are you going to cut the cake?”
He Yang didn’t answer, just looked at Shen Xiuzhu opposite, and asked softly, “Do you want to try the cake made by Zhou Lao?”
“Old Zhou is still making cakes?” Shen Xiuzhu’s eyes lit up, “I must try it, I haven’t had it for a long time.”
The cake table is on the other side of the deck, and a few people walked towards the cake table.
Shen Xiuzhu was walking on He Yang’s left, while Xu Chengyan was on He Yang’s right.
Xu Chengyan held the wine glass and quietly observed the two people beside him.
The wind picked up at night, blowing on the deck, and it was a little cold.
Shen Xiuzhu was already in poor health, so he lowered his head and couldn’t help wrapping his coat a little tighter.
He Yang noticed the young man’s movements, leaned slightly to the left, and helped the young man on the left to block the wind.
Seeing He Yang’s movements, Xu Chengyan’s face still did not change, as if he didn’t care at all, he took a sip of red wine.
It does not matter.
Xu Chengyan forced himself to calm down and came to the open-air restaurant on the other side of the deck.
The long table was filled with various sweets, and the cake was placed in the middle of the table.
As a birthday star, He Yang held a cake knife and came to the cake.
However, He Yang did not cut it, but handed the cake knife to the person beside him.
“Let me cut?” Shen Xiuzhu was a little surprised.
“Don’t you like it?” He Yang said lightly.
“So you still remember…” Shen Xiuzhu’s tone became a little lonely, he took the cake knife and cut the first piece.
Not far away, Xu Chengyan watched this scene, and suddenly, he only felt cold all over.
Obviously, he is the person next to the husband, but the husband let another person cut the first.
Xu Chengyan looked at the man’s profile, and suddenly felt that the man in front of him was strange.
But he had never seen Mr.
It’s as if in the eyes of Mr., there is only that person, and he doesn’t even notice his existence at all.
Obviously he was near Mr., but Mr. didn’t look back.
Xu Chengyan couldn’t help but look at Shen Xiuzhu again.
Shen Xiuzhu has already started to divide the cake, and the group of boys and buddies came over with smiles and chatted with Shen Xiuzhu from time to time.
It can be seen that Shen Xiuzhu is very popular in the rich second-generation circle.
After all, Shen Xiuzhu was once the young master of the Shen family.
Even if the Shen family has fallen and the young master has fallen, but now that the young master has returned to China, his original charm has not diminished.
The area around the cake table was lively and lively, and almost everyone surrounded Shen Xiuzhu and He Yang.
Only Xu Chengyan was deserted and deserted, and was excluded by these young masters, intentionally or unintentionally.
Xu Chengyan couldn’t stay any longer, so he turned around and left, staying alone in the corner to breathe.
