Chapter 23: last call (2/2)

When he came to the bedroom, He Yang turned on the light, but did not see a familiar figure in the bedroom, Xu Chengyan was not at home.

There was one less person in the apartment, and it instantly became a little deserted.

However, He Yang only thought that Xu Chengyan didn't come back because he had a class in the afternoon, so he didn't care much.

Until it was dark outside, Xu Chengyan hadn't come back, and he didn't send any news.

He Yang sat on the bed, still took the phone and called Xu Chengyan.

”Yanyan.” He Yang asked, ”Still outside?”

”Yeah.” The other end of the phone answered.

He Yang asked, ”Where are you? I'll ask the driver to pick you up.”

”No need.” Xu Chengyan said, ”Sir, I'm in Anshi.”

Anshi was in the next province, He Yang suddenly asked, ”Why did you suddenly run over there?”

Xu Chengyan explained: ”I told Mr. last time that I want to rest for a while, so I will go out for a walk.”

He Yang also remembered the time when Xu Chengyan had told him to rest.

He Yang asked: ”When will you be back?”

The other end of the phone was silent for a while before replying, ”I don't know.”

It was only then that He Yang noticed something was wrong and asked, ”Yanyan, what happened?”

There was no sound on the other end of the phone, it was quiet.

He Yang asked, ”Why did you suddenly run out without saying a word?”

”Sorry, sir.” Xu Chengyan held the phone and stayed in the hotel room alone, looking at the night view outside the window, and said slowly, ”I still can't accept that Mr. treats another person so well.”

He Yang frowned slightly, ”Yanyan, don't make trouble.”

”Sir, I didn't make trouble.” Xu Chengyan lowered his head and said softly, ”Why does Mister think I'm making trouble every time?”

He's had enough of that.

”Sir, maybe we all need a little time to calm down.” Xu Chengyan resisted his emotions, his eyes were slightly red, ”It's best to stay away for a while.”

He Yang listened to the voice on the other end of the phone, the expression on his face became cold, ”I said, he is my friend.”

”Sir, there are many kinds of friends...” Xu Chengyan's voice choked.

”He has a heart condition and cannot be stimulated.” He Yang rubbed his eyebrows, ”Someone needs to take care of him.”

”How long will the gentleman take care of him?” Xu Chengyan's tone became a little excited, ”One year? Two years? Or twenty or thirty years?”

”Xu Chengyan!”

Xu Chengyan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, slowed down a bit, and finally said, ”Sir, I don't want to talk about him anymore.”

”Xu Chengyan, how did you promise me five years ago?” He Yang's tone became a little heavier, ”I regret it now, why are you angry?!”

Xu Chengyan lowered his eyes.

Five years ago, he had promised his husband that he could not be named.

He also promised Mr. that he would be very obedient and obedient, and he would obey Mr.

”But five years ago, Mr. didn't say that he wanted me to be a substitute.” Xu Chengyan said slowly, ”It was Mr. who lied to me.”

”I can't accept his existence, and I don't want to be his stand-in.”

”Sir, I just need a moment to calm down.”

After speaking, the phone fell silent, and no one spoke again.

After a long time, He Yang said coldly, ”Then don't come back.”

He Yang hung up the phone.
