After the Stand-in Shou Faked His Death

Chapter 123: Broken Mirror 10 Hearts [recommended ticket plus more]

"Let's lose money." Xu Chengyan picked up the branch, raised his head to meet the man's gaze, and asked, "How much does the maintenance cost for this bed?"

He Yang didn't answer directly, he took advantage of the situation to sit aside, spread out his palms, revealing the two wooden signs, "How do I pay for this?"

Xu Chengyan thought for a while and said, "Then shall I write another one?"

He Yang didn't make a sound for a while, and held the wooden sign quietly.

After a while, He Yang said, "It's different."

Write a new one, different.

He Yang got up and said, "Forget it, you don't need to pay."

"Ok?"

He Yang got out of bed and said unhurriedly, "My little one, be more obedient next time, don't make trouble."

After speaking, He Yang left and returned to the villa.

Xu Chengyan was still lying on the lazy bed, looking in the direction of the villa, without moving, and continued to bask in the sun.

It was not until evening that Xu Chengyan returned to the villa.

When Xu Chengyan returned to the living room, he saw the figure on the balcony at a glance.

When Xu Chengyan walked over, he saw the man leaning against the railing, with a cigarette in his right hand and a wooden sign in his left.

The cigarette **** was about to burn to his fingers, but the man didn't care, he just looked down at the wooden sign.

The wooden sign that had been carefully kept for four years was suddenly damaged, He Yang frowned, and the expression on his face became more and more indifferent.

Suddenly, He Yang noticed something, and when he looked to the side, he saw a young man not far away.

He Yang reacted, put out the cigarette butt, put the wooden sign on the table, and said slowly, "Uncle Wen said you didn't get up until after eleven o'clock today, why is it so late?"

Xu Chengyan replied, "It's time to wake up."

"It's too late." He Yang came over and rubbed the child's head, "Get up early in the future."

"I'll try my best." Xu Chengyan nodded casually.

And He Yang also left the balcony and walked towards the living room.

Xu Chengyan was still standing there, looking at He Yang's figure.

It was not until He Yang walked away that Xu Chengyan withdrew his gaze and looked towards the table.

The wooden plaque was still on the table, Xu Chengyan walked over and picked up the wooden plaque.

Xu Chengyan stared at the wooden sign that was broken in two in his hand for a while, then looked towards the living room.

He Yang was not in the living room, and it was estimated that he had already returned to the upstairs room.

The housekeeper was still in the living room, watering the potted plants with a kettle.

Xu Chengyan thought for a while and walked towards the housekeeper.

"Uncle Wen, do you have glue?"

After asking for glue from the housekeeper, Xu Chengyan went back to the room.

Xu Chengyan sat at the table and tried to put the wooden sign together again.

It's just that no matter how he pieced it together, there would still be an obvious gap in the middle of the wooden sign, and he couldn't hide it no matter what.

Xu Chengyan spent the night fiddling in the room, then found a brush and re-filled the writing on the wooden sign with color.

The next morning, Xu Chengyan found He Yang with a wooden sign.

He Yang was still looking at the documents in the study, and Xu Chengyan stood at the door without making a sound.

He Yang noticed the figure at the door, put down the document, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xu Chengyan came over and handed over the wooden sign, "I've fixed it."

He Yang was slightly taken aback when he saw the wooden sign.

The wooden sign has been glued back up again, although there is still a gap in the middle, but if you don't look carefully, you can't see it.

Moreover, the handwriting on the wooden sign is much clearer than before, and the color has been repainted.

He Yang looked at the wooden sign and did not speak.

After a long time, He Yang said, "Don't be so troublesome, it's all broken anyway."

Xu Chengyan stood aside and smiled: "I can make do with glue."

He Yang rubbed the handwriting on the wooden sign, and finally put the wooden sign in the drawer.

Xu Chengyan took a few steps back and did not disturb He Yang's work any more, and said, "I'll go out first."

Xu Chengyan closed the door and walked downstairs.

The sun was shining outside again, and Xu Chengyan came to the yard and rested on the lazy bed.

Not far away, Kiki and Xiao Wen were playing on the grass.

Xu Chengyan looked at a cat and a dog, his eyes softened.

Qiqi was running around in the yard, and Xiao Wen followed around.

Xu Chengyan quietly basked in the sun on the lazy bed, falling asleep.

But not long after, Xu Chengyan heard a strange cry.

"Ouch!" Kiki ran to the lazy bed, arched his head on the owner's lap, and was a little anxious.

Xu Chengyan hugged Qiqi's head and rubbed it, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Ow!" Kiki called out in a certain direction.

Xu Chengyan seemed to understand a little, so he got up and got out of bed and walked behind Qiqi.

Kiki leads the way through the yard.

Unconsciously, Qiqi brought the master to the wall.

Xu Chengyan raised his head slightly, looked at the two-to-three-meter-high fence in front of him, and then saw the Frisbee toy on the wall at a glance.

Xu Chengyan looked at the big dog beside him and couldn't help but say, "Why did you get the toy on the wall?"

"Ow!" Kiki looked innocent.

Xu Chengyan had no choice but to step forward and continue to study the wall.

On the other side, in the study.

He Yang was facing the laptop screen, working on his work.

The room was quiet until the sound of the phone vibrating broke the silence.

He Yang took the phone and saw the note "Yanyan" on the screen at a glance.

Pressed to answer, a familiar voice came from the phone—

"He Yang, can you bring me a ladder here?"

"Huh?" He Yang got up.

Xu Chengyan said, "I'm on the side of the small gate, help me get a ladder."

"Want a ladder?" He Yang left the study, walked towards the stairs, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing..." The voice on the phone faltered.

He Yang did not answer immediately, but walked directly towards the small door and asked, "Are you in a hurry?"

"It's okay...or you can ask Uncle Wen to help me bring the ladder here."

He Yang replied, "Uncle Wen has gone out."

"No wonder..." A sigh came from the phone, "I just didn't get through to Uncle Wen."

He Yang quickened his pace and quickly came to the small door.

And when He Yang looked up, he saw a figure sitting on the wall.

At this time, the young man was sitting on the fence talking on the phone, and there was a **** and white dog squatting on the ground.

He Yang looked at the young man on the fence, frowned slightly, and said slowly, "Yanyan, why did you run up there?"

Xu Chengyan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked towards the yard and saw He Yang coming.

Xu Chengyan hung up the phone and called to He Yang, "I can't get down, help me find a ladder."

He Yang frowned, stood in front of the fence and asked, "How did you get up?"

"I don't know either." Xu Chengyan couldn't help but chuckle, "It came up suddenly."

He was brought to the wall by Qiqi before, and he happened to see a stone next to him. He didn't think much about it at that time, he stepped on the stone directly, climbed to the wall and took down the toy.

But when he came to the top of the wall, he found that he seemed to be unable to go down.

The wall is two or three meters high, and the stone is also a little short. It may be difficult to return to the original road, and it is easy to fall.

"Get me a ladder." Xu Chengyan smiled.

He Yang looked at the young man on the wall and sighed, "I haven't looked at you for a few minutes, and you will cause trouble again."

"Is there?" Xu Chengyan sat lazily on the fence, not in a hurry at all.

"I didn't look at you yesterday, but you broke the bed." He Yang came to the fence, "I didn't look at you today, so you ran off the wall."

Like a disobedient child.

"Hurry up and grab a ladder." Xu Chengyan urged.

"There is no ladder." He Yang raised his hand slightly and rolled up the sleeves of his shirt.

Xu Chengyan thought about it for a while, and then said, "Just take a chair."

He Yang still didn't respond, he just stretched out his hand and said to the young man on the fence, "Jump down."

Xu Chengyan was stunned, "Huh?"

"Jump down, I'll catch you." He Yang still maintained a gesture of reaching out, with a serious expression on his face.

Xu Chengyan did not move, and said unhurriedly, "What if I can't take it?"

"At most, I'll break my leg. I'll help you find a doctor."

He Yang's tone was light, as if breaking his leg was no big deal.

Xu Chengyan laughed angrily, and couldn't help but said, "I'm still filming next month. You're responsible for breaking my leg?"

"I'm in charge." He Yang responded.

Xu Chengyan didn't speak, just looked at the man under the wall.

Under the fence, the man was wearing a white shirt, all clean, and was reaching out to himself.

Xu Chengyan looked at the man's thin body, still a little suspicious, and asked, "Can you really handle it?"

"Can take it."

Xu Chengyan was still a little hesitant, thinking about jumping over the wall.

The wall is two or three meters high, and it is risky to jump directly. The best way is to ask He Yang to come over with a ladder or chair.

But in the end, Xu Chengyan still shouted to He Yang, "Then I jumped."

"Ok."

Xu Chengyan changed his posture and squatted on the wall. It was the first time he jumped from such a high place, and he was still a little nervous.

After choosing the angle, Xu Chengyan jumped off the wall and rushed towards He Yang.

The body fell from the air, and the adrenaline surged abnormally.

Hearing the wind whistling in his ears, Xu Chengyan couldn't help but close his eyes, mentally prepared for the worst.

But the next second, the body fell into a warm embrace.

He Yang steadily caught the young man and held him in his arms.

Xu Chengyan stretched out his hand subconsciously, hugged He Yang's shoulder tightly, and buried his head on the man's neck.

There was a pleasant cold scent on the other party's body, Xu Chengyan sniffed the familiar scent, and suddenly felt at ease.

Obviously He Yang's body still looks a little thin, but when he is held in his arms, he feels very secure.

It was at this moment that the thick clouds dissipated and the sun fell.

At this time, the two people by the wall were hugging each other tightly.

Xu Chengyan was still leaning on the man's shoulders, and his body was tightly pressed against each other.

Xu Chengyan had not yet recovered from the nervousness of jumping over the wall, panting slightly and breathing rapidly.

In his chest, the violent heartbeat has not stopped.

thump, thump—

It was unclear whose heartbeat it was.

Maybe it's because the current atmosphere is so good, or maybe it's the effect of adrenaline.

Xu Chengyan couldn't help laughing, turned his head slightly, and leaned into the man's ear, "He Yang, do we want to—"

Want to try it?

Try to be together again.

"Huh?" He Yang didn't hear the second half of the sentence for a while. He hugged the person in his arms and patted the young man's back with his palm.

After standing firm, He Yang let go of his hand, tidied up his sleeves, and asked, "What did you just say?"

Xu Chengyan took a few steps back and regained some sense of reason.

Breathing was steady, and heartbeat returned to normal.

"Nothing." Xu Chengyan smiled.

The two returned to the villa.

He Yang went back to the study to continue working, while Xu Chengyan stayed in the living room, lying on the sofa and playing with his mobile phone.

It was not until evening when Xu Chengyan heard movement from the courtyard, and it was the housekeeper who came back.

This time the housekeeper also brought two workers back, as if to repair something.

Xu Chengyan noticed it, so he got up and went to the yard to take a look, and found that the housekeeper and the workers had gone to the small door.

However, because of the angle, Xu Chengyan couldn't see the specific situation of the workers, nor did he know what the workers wanted to repair.

So Xu Chengyan went back to the house first, just when he saw He Yang coming downstairs, he went over and said, "Uncle Wen just brought someone back, it seems that he wants to repair something."

"Yeah." He Yang responded and said lightly, "Build a staircase over the wall."

"Fix the stairs?"

"It's not safe for children to climb the wall." He Yang glanced at the direction of the yard and said slowly, "The next time you want to climb the wall, take the stairs."

"Got it, Uncle He Yang." Xu Chengyan nodded perfunctorily, turned and walked towards the restaurant.

It's already dinner time, and my aunt is ready for dinner.

When Xu Chengyan passed by, he saw that Xiao Wen was also in the restaurant.

Xiao Wen is squatting on the ground, obediently bowing his head and eating dinner.

Xu Chengyan couldn't help but leaned over to the pet table to take a look, and found that Xiaowen's bowl was bibimbap with meat in it, which looked delicious.

Xu Chengyan came to the table and said, "Why do I think Xiao Wen's rice is better?"

He Yang raised his head and glanced at the person opposite, and said calmly, "Are you going to grab something from Xiao Wen?"

Xu Chengyan looked at the vegetables on the table and said slowly, "Xiao Wen can eat meat, but I don't have any meat."

"The doctor suggested a bland diet."

"It's a suggestion, but it didn't say you have to eat light."

He Yang had no choice but to say, "If you want to eat it, ask Auntie to fry another."

After Xu Chengyan heard it, she really went to the kitchen to find her aunt and asked her to make another version of Xiao Wen's bibimbap.

After dinner, Xu Chengyan went back to the bedroom, and by the way, he also hugged Xiao Wen.

Xu Chengyan was lying on the bed, holding Xiaowen in his arms, playing with his mobile phone and touching Xiaowen's body.

Xiao Wen is soft and just right in his arms, like a stuffed toy.

And Xiao Wen also leaned on him obediently, very docile.

Xu Chengyan was swiping Weibo and suddenly received a call from Su Tang.

After connecting, Su Tang's voice came: "Zhouzhou, do you want to come out next week?"

Xu Chengyan asked, "When?"

"Me and Chi Xiao can do it, it just depends on when it's convenient for you." Su Tang said.

Xu Chengyan replied, "That number one."

"Okay." Su Tang responded and asked again, "Have you been resting at home recently?"

"At the friend's side."

Su Tang asked casually, "Who is it?"

Xu Chengyan was silent for a while, but still replied, "My predecessor's house."

"You got back together?"

Xu Chengyan didn't answer for a while.

When He Yang asked him to get back together before, he refused, and he didn't want to think about falling in love at that time.

But now that he has fulfilled Qin Zhou's wish, he can calm down and think about other things.

"Not sure... Maybe." Xu Chengyan's answer was a little vague, and he touched and touched Xiao Wen's head subconsciously, diverting his attention.

"Then wait for your good news." Su Tang's tone was still light.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Chengyan was still lying on the bed, thinking about the conversation just now, while stroking Xiao Wen.

Xiao Wen moved his body, got into the quilt and folded into a ball on Xu Chengyan's chest to keep warm.

Xu Chengyan also patted Xiao Wen across the quilt.

One person and one cat are very harmonious on the bed.

At half past nine, there was a knock on the door.

He Yang pushed open the door and came in with a glass of milk.

Xu Chengyan had a headache when he saw the milk, and didn't really want to drink it.

He Yang came over and sat beside the bed, put the milk glass on the table, and reminded: "It's time."

Xu Chengyan didn't move, just said, "I'll drink it later."

He Yang glanced at the young man on the bed, but still didn't say anything. He took out the tablet from the drawer of the bedside table and asked, "Want to tell a story?"

Xu Chengyan changed his posture slightly, lying on his side on the bed, looking at the figure beside the bed.

No headlights were turned on in the room, only the lamp on the bedside table glowed a warm yellow light.

Xu Chengyan did not refuse this time, but instead came down: "Well."

He Yang was a little surprised, "What do you want to hear?"

"It will be all right."

He Yang was still searching for bedtime stories and asked, "Sleeping Beauty? The Little Mermaid? Little Red Riding Hood?"

"Whatever." Xu Chengyan didn't ask.

So He Yang opened the story of Sleeping Beauty and read it from the first page.

Xu Chengyan listened quietly, not yet falling asleep.

He Yang is still slowly telling stories, from Sleeping Beauty to Little Mermaid, and from Little Mermaid to Little Red Riding Hood...

When He Yang finished reading the story and looked at the bed inadvertently, he saw that the young man on the bed still had his eyes open.

He Yang frowned slightly and asked, "You haven't slept yet?"

"Not sleepy." Xu Chengyan shook his head.

He Yang leaned over, covered the quilt on the young man's body, and said in a low voice, "Sleep early, little kid."

"It's too early, I really can't sleep." Xu Chengyan chuckled and lifted the quilt a little further.

He Yang noticed it and reached out, trying to cover the quilt tightly.

Xu Chengyan reminded aloud: "Xiao Wen is still inside and will be bored."

"Xiao Wen is inside?" He Yang stared at the quilt, his brows furrowed even tighter, he lifted the quilt directly, and saw a fluffy ball lying on the young man's stomach.

Xiao Wen was curled up in the young man's arms, squinting, a little lazy.

He Yang reached out and picked up Xiao Wen and put it aside, and said calmly, "Xiao Wen loses her hair."

Xiao Wen was placed on the carpet and looked up at him in a dazed way.

Xiao Wen glanced at his master, then at the young man on the bed, leaning over and wanting to crawl on the bed again.

However, He Yang still didn't let Xiao Wen climb onto the bed and carried Xiao Wen into the corridor.

He Yang closed the door and shut Xiao Wen out, then went back to the bed and reminded, "Go to sleep."

Xu Chengyan still wasn't sleepy, looked at the alarm clock on the bedside table again, and said, "It's only half past ten, it's too early."

"It's late."

Xu Chengyan glanced at the lamp, "I can't sleep with the light on."

He Yang directly turned off the light, and the room instantly fell into darkness.

Xu Chengyan stopped talking, closed his eyes, and his breathing slowly calmed down.

But the brain is still very awake and can't sleep at all.

Xu Chengyan lay on the bed for a long time, but finally opened his eyes, looked towards the bed, and saw a figure beside the bed.

Although the lights were not turned on in the room, Xu Chengyan could still see the person in front of him by the moonlight outside the window.

He Yang, on the other hand, sat quietly beside the bed, without looking at his phone, he just stared at the young man on the bed.

Xu Chengyan blinked and met the man's gaze.

For a while, neither of them spoke, and the room was still silent.

Xu Chengyan moved slightly towards the bedside, a hand stretched out from under the quilt and put it on the back of the man's hand.

The man's palm was warm, Xu Chengyan rubbed the back of his hand lightly, a little bored.

He Yang asked: "Still can't sleep?"

Xu Chengyan snorted and continued to rub against the back of He Yang's hand, as if treating He Yang's hand as a toy.

Feeling a little thirsty again, Xu Chengyan sat up, took the thermos cup on the bedside table, and drank water.

Also because of the action of drinking water, the quilt on Xu Chengyan's body slipped down to his waist.

He Yang suddenly noticed that the pajamas on the young man were not properly worn, the top two buttons were not fastened, and the neckline was loose.

He Yang frowned immediately: "Why didn't you even put on your clothes."

After Xu Chengyan finished drinking the water, he put the thermos cup on the bedside table, and then subconsciously looked down at his pajamas.

And He Yang leaned over and fastened the buttons on the youth pajamas.

Xu Chengyan sat on the bed without moving, bowing his head slightly, watching He Yang's movements.

At this time, the distance between the two was very close.

Xu Chengyan sniffed the scent on He Yang's body, and smelled the familiar cold fragrance, mixed with a hint of mellow red wine.

So Xu Chengyan asked, "Drinking?"

"Yeah." He Yang fastened his buttons and tidied up his collar, "Drink a little."

"I also want to drink."

After He Yang heard it, he said calmly, "Children can't drink."

Xu Chengyan chuckled softly, "Just have a drink."

"Drink next time."

Xu Chengyan asked, "Can't I do it today?"

"It's too late, it's time for the children to go to bed." He Yang's voice was calm, helping the children arrange their pajamas.

Xu Chengyan looked at the man in front of him, took the initiative to get closer, leaned in front of the man, raised his head slightly, "I don't want to sleep."

He Yang lowered his head and met the young man's gaze.

In the dimly lit room, the eyes were entangled, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little ambiguous.

He Yang's palm was still resting on the young man's waist, and he squeezed his hand slightly, tightening it more and more.

The surroundings were quiet, except for the sound of their breathing.

Unconsciously, the distance between the two is getting closer and closer, and the safe distance has been crossed.

As long as you get a little closer, you can kiss.

Xu Chengyan opened his eyes, his eyelashes trembled slightly.

Breathing suddenly became a little faster, and the heart beat faster.

Xu Chengyan unconsciously stretched out his hand and put it on the man's arm.

But just as he was about to get closer, the man in front of him turned his head sideways—

Avoid kissing.
