Xu ChengYan stood outside the ward and thought about it a lot. In the end, he didn’t go in to disturb them. He just sat on the waiting chair beside him and waited calmly.

On the other side, Jiang Lin hesitated for a while, but he did not go in either, and accompanied Xu ChengYan outside.

 

 

Xu ChengYan sat quietly, looking at the white wall on the opposite side in a trance.

Jiang Lin looked at the person beside him, and secretly took out his mobile phone and sent a message to He Yang as a reminder. 

Before long, the ward door opened from the inside.

 

He Yang came out, closed the door, and looked at the two people on the waiting chair next to him.

“XianSheng.” Xu ChengYan got up and asked softly, “Shen XiuZhu……is he feeling better?”

“Mm.” He Yang replied coldly.

 

Xu ChengYan looked at the ward and explained, “Auntie changed the menu temporarily. I didn’t pay attention to the seafood. I didn’t know he would be allergic to it…….”

“Can I go in and see him?” Xu ChengYan asked.

He Yang didn’t speak, just opened the door and let Xu ChengYan in.

 

The young master was sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a thermos cup and slowly drinking hot water. 

Seeing that someone came in, the young master looked up with a gentle smile on his face.

The young master’s face was still pale and weak, the thin-rimmed glasses had been taken off, and the facial features on his face looked softer.

Xu ChengYan walked over step by step, came to the bed, and whispered, “Sorry…….”

“This time there was a problem in the kitchen, it was my mistake. I didn’t know there would be seafood…….” Xu ChengYan took the initiative to apologize. 

“It’s okay.” The young master smiled, as if he didn’t care much, “It’s okay anyway.”

He Yang next to him listened, frowned in disapproval, and said to Xu ChengYan: “When there’s a dinner party next time, ask Auntie to send me a copy of the ingredients.”

It was also at this time that He Yang noticed that Xu ChengYan’s left hand was still wrapped in a bandage.

He Yang asked, “What’s wrong with your hand?”

 

Xu ChengYan subconsciously looked down at his left hand, and said lightly, “It was accidentally cut before.”

He Yang glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze and said nothing. 

Xu ChengYan and Jiang Lin stayed in the ward for a while before leaving.

The young master needed a rest, so He Yang stayed in the ward to accompany him and did not go back with Xu ChengYan.

Jiang Lin sent Xu ChengYan back to the apartment, still a little worried about Xu ChengYan’s state, so he said, “Sister-in-law, are you okay?”

“It’s okay.” Xu ChengYan cheered up and stopped thinking about it. 

It was already late at night, Xu ChengYan went to bed after taking a bath and lay down alone.

No lights were turned on in the bedroom, the curtains were drawn, and the room was dark.

But Xu ChengYan just kept his eyes open, staring at the pitch-black scene.

Unconsciously, Xu ChengYan fell asleep until noon the next day and he was awakened by the sound of rain outside. 

The house was still deserted, and XianSheng didn’t come back all night.

Xu ChengYan sat up from the bed in a daze, and found that his head was a little dizzy, and his body had no strength, it seemed he had caught a cold again.

Xu ChengYan touched his forehead, and after taking out the cold medicine from the drawer and taking it, he lay on the bed again and fell asleep.

But when Xu ChengYan was half asleep, he felt someone approaching beside him, and a big warm hand fell on his face and stroked gently. 

This feeling was very reassuring. Xu ChengYan opened his eyes and woke up, and he saw a familiar figure sitting beside the bed.

The small table lamp on the bedside table was on, and the warm yellow light fell on the man, and even the expression on the man’s face seemed to become a little softer, not as cold as usual.

“XianSheng…….” Xu ChengYan couldn’t help holding that hand beside his face, put his face in the palm of the man’s palm, and rubbed with some dependence.

“Have a cold?” the man asked softly. 

“En.” Xu ChengYan’s voice was still a little hoarse, “I’ve already taken the medicine.”

He Yang looked at the young man in front of him, stroked his fingertips against the young man’s face gently, and then touched the small tear mole under the corner of the young man’s right eye.

 

“I was in the hospital yesterday, and didn’t come back.” He Yang said, “I bought a cake.”

He Yang retracted his hand and took the dessert bag from the bedside table. 

Xu ChengYan propped up, sat beside the bed, took over the dessert bag and opened it; there was a cream cake inside.

When XianSheng was nice to him, he was really nice.

XianSheng would buy small gifts to coax him, and would also speak to him in a very gentle tone.

He fell into such tenderness really very easily, thinking that he was the one and only existence. 

But in the end, he found out that he was just a cheap copycat substitute.

Xu ChengYan lowered his head and looked at the cream cake in his arms, his heart was sour without knowing it, and his eyes were slightly red.

He never liked sweets. It was the young master who liked it.

Xu ChengYan didn’t say a word, and his eyes gradually became redder. 

The man also noticed something was wrong and asked, “Feeling unwell?”

He Yang stretched out his hand and lifted the young man’s face in one hand, and saw that those peach blossom eyes were a little wet and it seemed that he was about to cry in the next second.

“Eyes are all red.” He Yang touched the corner of the young man’s eyes and rubbed lightly.

Xu ChengYan closed his eyes and cried out: “XianSheng.” 

“I’m not Shen XiuZhu.” Xu ChengYan’s voice was still a little choked, “I have never like cakes.”

“I don’t use perfume, I don’t wear glasses…….”

“But everything that XianSheng gave me is exactly the same as Shen XiuZhu…….”

“Why?” Xu ChengYan’s eyes were red. 

“Yanyan.” The man slowed down his tone and rubbed the young man’s head, “Be good, don’t make trouble.”

“I am not making trouble……” Xu ChengYan looked at the cake in his arms, holding back his emotions, “I already, very good……..”

 

He was already very obedient and very well behaved.

But why couldn’t XianSheng look at ‘him’ more? 

Xu ChengYan couldn’t help but ask: “XianSheng, we are like this, what exactly are we?”

“Yanyan.” He Yang sighed, “I said, he is my friend.”

“He is my very important friend.” He Yang’s tone was still very gentle, and he patted the young man on the back soothingly, “Don’t think too much.”

“Then, what about me?” Xu ChengYan was about to lose control, “XianSheng, I can feel sad too.” 

“I’ll be jealous and envious if XianSheng is so nice to another person.”

“Aren’t we already together? But why does XianSheng treat me as a………..substitute?”

“Yanyan.” He Yang’s voice became slightly colder and he said slowly: “I don’t seem to have ever said that we are in a relationship.”
