Chapter 17: 17

When he had arrived here, he was surrounded by strangers all dressed up. Those people had smiled and said congratulations to him.

The man was surprised. He didn’t know these people at all, but the demeanor of these people was so natural that he felt that if he behaved strangely then it would be noticed.

The man quietly turned these thoughts over in his mind, and responded appropriately to these people’s blessings. Then he made an excuse and went into the dressing room.

What was reflected in the mirror was indeed his own face. But he had an inexplicable feeling in his heart—the person in the mirror at this time was not “him”.

 The man picked up the corsage on his chest and saw the words “Bridegroom, Lin Suiyan” written on it. He closed his eyes, sure enough.

 When he heard the words “Suiyan” and “President Lin” from those people just now, the man had a hunch, but he didn’t expect it to be true.
 

Although he was busy in reality, he also knew some popular words on the internet these days. Especially those such as crossing and rebirth, which have arisen in recent years.

And when he came here, what he saw and heard in a short time made him sure that he had transmigrated into the only online novel that he had ever read: “Substitute”.
 

Although the matter of transmigrating into the book made him feel ridiculous, he didn’t panic. He calmly accepted the fact of his crossing.

Although he didn’t know how he’d gotten here, but if he can get in, then there is a way to get back. He can slowly find a way back to his world.

There was just one thing that gave him a headache. “He” and the other protagonist in “Substitute”, Wen Jin’s wedding was about to start.

The conspiracies and tricks written by the author in the book were as naïve as a child playing house in his eyes. He didn’t take those people’s affairs to heart, but Wen Jin’s case was different.

He wasn’t the Lin Suiyan in the book, and there was no need to use Wen Jin to protect anyone. For him, there was no need for this wedding to exist.

He once thought about canceling the wedding and giving Wen Jin freedom, but he also thought that Lin Suiyan pursued Wen Jin in such a high-profile way at the beginning. Even if he canceled the wedding, Lin Suiyan’s enemies would not let Wen Jin go.

 With the current strength of the Wen family, they cannot protect Wen Jin.

Although he didn’t want to clean up the mess for Lin Suiyan, he couldn’t just watch an innocent person be endangered because of his random actions. And with Wen Jin’s character, if he broke off the marriage at this time, then Wen Jin might not be able to stand it.

He thought about it and finally decided to continue the wedding.

He wanted to return to his original world. But he was afraid it wouldn’t be that simple. So he might as well keep Wen Jin by his side and take care of him while he’s here.

As for Wen Jin’s affection for Lin Suiyan, it was better to let time resolve it. When a more suitable person appeared, Wen Jin would naturally let it go.

After marriage, he took care of Wen Jin like an elder brother – fortunately, in real life, he had a younger sister. So it wasn’t difficult to take care of Wen Jin.

 
They just got married, and he couldn’t let Wen Jin feel his sudden estrangement. He could only take it step by step, little by little and let Lin Suiyan walk out of Wen Jin’s heart bit by bit.

After a period of getting along with each other, the man found that Wen Jin, this big boy, was more likable than what was written in the book. And his temperament was more cheerful and casual than in the book.

The change in Wen Jin’s temperament was probably the result of his deliberate indulgence, but such a result was what he would like to see. With Wen Jin’s family background and character, if he hadn’t met Lin Suiyan, he could have lived a carefree and happy life.

Moreover, he didn’t expect that his decision, which had been arbitrary, would be to his benefit.

With Wen Jin, he was always happy and relaxed, which was a good feeling.

 

 

On the sofa, Su Yuli felt hot, and he threw aside the thin blanket that was covering him.
    

The man stepped forward and pulled the blanket over Su Yuli’s abdomen to prevent him from catching a cold.

Su Yuli slept until nine o’clock at night and woke up feeling hungry.

He rubbed his eyes and found that there was only a small light on in the living room, which was hazy and suitable for sleeping. But Lin Suiyan was not here.

Su Yuli thought to himself, he was indeed worthy of being called a scumbag. After eating the food made by this young master, he’d left him on the sofa without giving him any more attention. It was just hateful.

Su Yuli got up angrily and heard the voice of the housekeeper call over: “Young Master Wen, you are awake.” Then the light in the living room was turned on.

The housekeeper came over and said with a smile, “Are you hungry? The restaurant’s food has just arrived. Get up and eat.”

 Su Yuli, who had just tried cooking himself, had realized that cooking wasn’t easy. Since someone was willing to send some over, he was quite happy.

Su Yuli nodded, and then noticed that he was covered with a blanket. He folded the blanket up and said to the housekeeper, “Thank you, Uncle Kang.”

The housekeeper glanced at the neatly folded blanket in Su Yuli’s hand and smiled: “Don’t thank me. It was your husband who covered you.”

 Su Yuli was stunned, Lin Suiyan covered him with a blanket?

Su Yuli went to wash his face, and when he came back, the housekeeper had already put food on the table.

Su Yuli glanced at it. Boiled shrimp, sweet and sour small ribs, yam and lettuce, together with a milky white fish soup. The dishes were very common, but because of this homely style, it was able to arouse people’s appetite.

He picked up a spoon and filled a bowl of fish soup. Suddenly, he looked up and asked, “Where’s Lin Suiyan? Why didn’t he come?”

The housekeeper put the last fruit plate on the table and said, “Sir is in the study. I’ll go and call him.”

The study? Looking at the housekeeper’s back, Su Yuli couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. Isn’t there a protagonist bonus? Why is it still so hard? Sure enough, even the protagonist of a novel doesn’t succeed casually.

Su Yuli lowered his head to drink the soup. After a while, the housekeeper came back alone. Su Yuli waited for a while, but didn’t see Lin Suiyan come down.

The butler noticed Su Yuli’s expression and said, “Sir is not done yet. You can eat first, you don’t have to wait for him.”

Su Yuli got up and said, ” I’ll go and have a look.”
 

The housekeeper did not stop him. Shaking his head and smiling behind him, he said “Their relationship is really good enough to make people envious.”

When Su Yuli knocked on the door of the study and looked at Lin Suiyan, he said to himself that this wasn’t right. He’d already repaid Lin Suiyan’s kindness. Why was he still concerned about whether he was hungry or not? Did he wake up a fool? But he had already gone inside. He couldn’t go back now.

Su Yuli said as usual: “I’m here to invite you to dinner.”

 Lin Suiyan pressed the keyboard with one hand, and said, “You eat first, it will take a while for me to finish.”

Su Yuli frowned. He didn’t leave, but sat down on the sofa next to him. Looking at Lin Suiyan’s questioning eyes, he said, “If you don’t eat, then I won’t eat either.”

Lin Suiyan seemed to be amused by his childishness and asked him, “Aren’t you hungry?”

“Not hungry.” Su Yuli said. His stomach growled. He covered his stomach angrily. He’d obviously had a small bowl of fish soup, but it was too unsatisfactory.

 Looking at Su Yuli’s red ears, Lin Suiyan closed the computer and stood up.

 Su Yuli immediately said, “What are you doing?”

Lin Suiyan said with a smile, “Going to dinner.”
 

Back in the dining room, after sitting down, Su Yuli felt that he still had to explain, he said: “I’m really not hungry. That was…”

Lin Suiyan said thoughtfully: “Well, I’m hungry.”

Su Yuli opened his mouth and finally decided to give up. He lowered his head to eat, but his eyes couldn’t help glancing at Lin Suiyan sitting across from him.

Lin Suiyan didn’t make a sound at all while eating. And when he raised his hands, he didn’t act annoying at all, which was very pleasing to the eyes.

Looking at him again, Su Yuli frowned. He thought of his own act of caring for Lin Suiyan’s hungry stomach just now. That care came too naturally.

He found a reason for his behavior in his mind. Saying that he must have asked him to eat because he didn’t want Lin Suiyan to starve to death before dinner. He also needed Lin Suiyan to get rid of those annoying villains.

Yes, that’s it.

Su Yuli had those villains on his mind, and within two days, one of the villains had an accident.

That day Su Yuli sat on the sofa browsing Weibo. The world in this book had both Wechat and Weibo. But no developers for them could be found, it was really amazing.

Su Yuli scrolled through the Weibo page and scanned through all kinds of content at a glance. When suddenly, a message caught his attention. It was about Fengsheng Group, that is, the Cheng family.

Su Yuli sat up straight and looked at it carefully.

Weibo said that Cheng Miao had recently taken over a new project, but he made a mess, and the partners suffered heavy losses. Cheng Miao couldn’t solve it, so he had to hide behind and act like a turtle.

Mrs. Cheng spent a lot of time cleaning up the mess for her son. The person in charge of the other party agreed to chat with Mrs. Cheng in private.

   

Mrs. Cheng made a reservation at a high-end restaurant, where she unexpectedly ran into Mr. Cheng, who had claimed to be working overtime. Instead, he had been spending time with his mistress. Looking at the intimate behavior of her husband and his mistress, Mrs. Cheng turned pale with anger.

Mrs. Cheng was worthy of being called a strong woman. She didn’t attack on the spot. Instead, she patiently solved her son’s problem. After she returned home, she had people investigate the woman. After checking, the result made her feel even colder.
 

It turned out that Cheng Jianxin had not only raised a lover outside, but also had a child with this lover. The illegitimate child was in his teens this year.

Cheng Jianxin had been derailed for more than ten years.
 

 Mrs. Cheng was a girl from a wealthy family. She was the youngest child from the family and was quite favored. She had countless suitors when she was young. She chose Cheng Jianxin because he was young, motivated and romantic.

After getting married, Mrs. Cheng’s family did their best to help the Cheng family, so that the Cheng family could be stable for so many years. Otherwise they would have been severely left behind by the Lin family.

Who would have thought that Cheng Jianxin would do such a thing.

This was simply an explosive scandal. Su Yuli’s eyes became brighter and brighter. In order to enjoy the situation, he asked Aunt Xu to cut a portion of watermelon so he could eat it while reading.

After the illegitimate child incident was exposed, Mrs. Cheng’s family withdrew in a rage, and Mrs. Cheng directly took away half of the company’s backbone.

   

Cheng Jianxin went round and round in a hurry. Cheng Miao was sandwiched between his parents. He was angry at his father for being unfaithful and hated his mother for being unfeeling at the same time. He got drunk at a bar got into fights with some people, and was detained by the police.

 Su Yuli shook his head repeatedly. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen to the Cheng family in such a short period of time.

When Lin Suiyan came in from the outside, he saw Su Yuli smiling with malicious intent and casually asked, “What are you looking at?”

Su Yuli’s eyes lit up when he saw Lin Suiyan. He mysteriously waved to Lin Suiyan , “Come here to eat melons.”

Lin Suiyan seemed to find Su Yuli’s demeanor and actions very interesting, and came over.

 Su Yuli summed up the incident quickly and concisely. After listening to Su Yuli’s speech, he said nothing. Only picked up the fork, inserted it and ate a piece of watermelon.

Su Yuli saw that Lin Suiyan’s reaction was flat, and he didn’t share the joy at all. He said, “Why are you not surprised at all.”

Lin Suiyan put down his fork and said, “I’m surprised.”

Su Yuli said that he really didn’t see it. He noticed that there was an exquisitely packed box on the table, which Lin Suiyan had just brought. He asked, “What is that?”

 “Su Xinzhai’s dim sum.” Lin Suiyan said, “When I passed by there, I bought one. Try it.”

Su Yuli opened it and looked at it. Suddenly he looked up and said, “When did you go out? No, what were you doing out? “

Lin Suiyan said, “I haven’t been to the company for a long time. So I went to take a look.”

Su Yuli looked at Lin Suiyan’s right arm hanging around his neck. His brow twitched a little, and he said that he was really dedicated.

Su Yuli opened the dim sum box and saw that the dim sum was very delicately made. He handed a piece to Lin Suiyan. Lin Suiyan said, “You can eat it.”

Su Yuli bit down on the snack and looked at Lin Suiyan’s quiet profile. He couldn’t help asking, “You didn’t do this, right?”

He said this without thinking. Lin Suiyan still understood, he asked: “Why do you think I did it?”

Su Yuli’s heart thumped. He secretly thought to himself that it was terrible. He was too casual in front of Lin Suiyan these days. He touched his nose and said softly: “Just… I don’t think you were very happy when you came back from the Cheng’s house that time. And that drunk man… I think if I hadn’t thought about looking for you, and if  hadn’t closed the door out of habit, then the person trapped inside would have been me. “

Lin Suiyan didn’t seem to expect that Su Yuli would be so sharp. So he was silent for a while and said, “Don’t be afraid, I won’t let anyone hurt you.”

Su Yuli’s heart twinged. After a while, Lin Suiyan said, “I didn’t do it.”

 Su Yuli was relieved to hear Lin Suiyan say this.

Although this could vent his anger, he felt it wasn’t very honest or upright. At this age, Su Yuli still likes “Wei Guangzheng1” very much.

After he breathed a sigh of relief, Su Yuli frowned again. Since when did he believe so firmly in what Lin Suiyan said?

Su Yuli bit the snack and decided  it was best to be skeptical.

He recalled the contents of the book. After the birthday banquet of the old man of the Cheng family, Cheng Jianxin and Cheng Miao, this father and son, were still bouncing around for a long time. It was only later that the scene involving the affair and the illegitimate child happened.

Now he has had an accident with Lin Suiyan, and the plot has also changed slightly. What happened to the Cheng family is ahead of schedule.

Su Yuli remembered that when this had happened to Cheng Jianxin the description written in the book was very obscure. Some people said that Lin Suiyan took the shot, and it was shameful to use this kind of inferior means.

Some people said that it was an accident. Although the boss was a scumbag, he was still the boss, and he would definitely suppress his opponents directly in the market. The readers of the novel also began a debate because of this, and the quarrel was incomparable.

When he first read the book, Su Yuli firmly believed that this matter was caused Lin Suiyan. But now that he was here, he was confused, just because Lin Suiyan said “No.”

Su Yuli said that he would not be deceived, right? He frowned, eating snacks piece by piece, as if he was thinking about some important matter of people’s livelihood.

A glass of water was suddenly handed to him from the side. Su Yuli looked up, and met Lin Suiyan’s deep eyes. Lin Sui said: “Drink some water, don’t choke.”

 Su Yuli lowered his head and found that he was almost finished with the small box of snacks.

Su Yuli: “…Thank you.”

  Su Yuli burped a little after drinking half a glass of water. Before he could be embarrassed, he heard Lin Suiyan say: “Xiao Jin, there is something I want to discuss with you.”

Su Yuli’s eyes were shining: “What’s the matter?”

Lin Suiyan said: “You are a student. You should give priority to your studies. I’m almost better now. With Aunt Xu taking care of me, you can go back to school tomorrow.”

 Su Yuli: “…”

I thought he was going to say something, but he’s just a jerk, he’s got no heart!
