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.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

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. UIRP28

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. mPLbs0

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. mA4t2T

“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?”

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

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. jX0 iI

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. XEAcT

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. tJ6GRk

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. lagouk

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. XnL5tx

“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. oWMV1m

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. Qq6Nk9

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. bUMFRS

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.” 1n27ph

“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. H2oLKE

“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……..”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

He was already very obedient and very well behaved.

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

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.” f84bNu

“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.”

  1. “I don’t seem to have ever said we are in a relationship” you are LIVING TOGETHER! I hope this guy is torn apart with guilt later 🤬

  2. So you wanted to enjoy his 5 years of pampering you and catering to all your needs for NOTHING?? Even a dog would repay people treating him well better than this idiot #__#&£&£ this guy doesn’t deserve anything I’d he’s not even willing to give MC a response

  3. Logically, I know they are more than likely going to end up together in the end. (Though I’m still holding onto a miniscule hope that they don’t…) But that doesn’t stop me from scolding (and wanting to murder) the bastard(s). 😤

    Thanks for the chapter.

  4. I will scold him even if I might feel sorry for him later. I feel so angry and feel so much frustration at this chapter. 😡 There might be a misunderstanding or he might just be a fool , but it is still to damn sad how he treats ChengYan. 😭😭😭😭😭

  5. I want to take a guess at the plot. I think I know it will go either of the two ways. Should I spell it out here or keep it to myself? Choices choices 🤔

  6. Throw that cake in his garbage face…. no wait, the cake doesn’t deserve it D: I’m really curious if I’ll feel pity for him later buuuut…. I guess it won’t happen bc I’d never throw such a person a second look. I just hope he suffers A LOT! >D

    Thx for the ch :3

  7. I CAN ONLY WAIT UNTIL THAT LIL BTICH HE YONG IS TORN APART. I HOPE A CAR POPS HIS BALLS (Mods pls no report <3 ily)

  8. Aaaaagh! I will go crazy! I need to beat him up or I will die! I will never pitty him, no no! YanYan, please, stop hurting yourself being with such s*um! Stop feeding yourself on the pipe dreams! You will be much happier far away from all of them! ><

    Thank You for the new chapter! (。’▽’。)♡

  9. Even if they are ‘not in relationship ‘, they are legally (at least in my book) common law husbands as they share home, sleep together and i guess part of the finance is shared as i can interpret from little xu taking care of the houses/apartments.

    The scum is treating him as a house maid, buttler, sleeping doll, manager etc. And not even recognising their relationship… Unbelievable.

    Please have mercy on me and spoil in how many chapters we can wave goodbye 👋 to the oblivious dunce.

  10. Get away from our YanYan!! You don’t deserve our YanYan!!!!! 💢🔪💢🔪💢🔪

  11. XCY… let’s remember to always keep our friends close, friends who are able to watch out for you and will tell you how it is when you’re in an abusive relationships… don’t isolate yourself for the sake of a single person, however much you love them… let this be a cautionary tale… just run as far away as you can and quick!

  12. Makes me wanna smack him on the head real hard for saying that to him. They lived to gether for so long but he doesn’t want to commit??!!! What a load of bull!!! Make up you damn mind!!!!

  13. I CAN’T TAKE THIS ANYMORE FXXK U HE YANG ARRRGH YOU DON’T DESERVE XU CHENGYAN!! I really hope I can go inside the novel so that I can rescue XC from that stupid mans’ clutches 😩

  14. Ugh I hate him SO MUCH. YOU UNGRATEFUL BEAST, HIW DARE YOU TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR POOR INNOCENT YANTAN. ( ◠‿◠ )/🔪 DIE MOTHERFUCKER

  15. AAAAAAAA when will he gonna leave him…. he deserves much better than with this rubbish seriously. i know the story was completed but my grudges hope it’s not a happy ending for HY 🙂

  16. The fact that I have to watch this scum of a man end up with our baby makes me wanna barf. I’ll have to skip over all the places they get together in the future chapters. I wish there was another ML.

  17. I knew he was a substitute, but shit really, they never was ಥಥ. What the heck (ノಥ,」ಥ)ノ彡┻━┻. The clothes, the food and then this ahhhhhhh 5 years ahhh! 5 years he’s 18 yrs old now 23 gahhhh. When are you leaving!!!!! (。ŏ﹏ŏ)

  18. start scolding?

    i’ve already put him in my list ‘to be hitten by a car’ a long time ago.

  19. Yooo my heart went so cold. Please don’t let this guy be the male lead, he doesn’t deserve our yanyan. Yanyan find yourself a better man please 😭 if in the future this jerk says he always loved Yanyan I will call liar! Do you even know anything about yanya beyond the piano teacher bit? Everything else is a copy of the moonlight. I don’t care if it’s a life saving debt and not actual affection towards the moonlight, you don’t treat someone you’re sincere about like this

  20. Excuse me?!!! You had been with him for 5 years! And there’s no “Relationship”. ARE YOU OK, YOUNG MASTER HE – THAT NEEDS BRAIN CHECK UP???

  21. I’ll never feel sorry for this scumbag. He will never suffer even 1% of what Xu ChengYan has to go trough. Him maybe feeling guilty over XCY’s death later on is for sure not suffering. He’ll never love him

  22. Jin Ling : Are.you okay sister in law?

    Cheng Yan : I’m okay I look okay on the surface but my heart is slowly breaking into pieces (⁠。⁠•́⁠︿⁠•̀⁠。⁠)

    Trash HY you never said that you’re in a relationship with him but act like you are in relationship such a jerk .You’re not fuck buddies why do you treat him as a worthless toy that can be discarded easily when you found your favorite toy. I think the new term for trash is He Yang

  23. Music is the only friend I have while reading. It lessens the pain, but not by much. ๐·°(৹˃̵﹏˂̵৹)°·๐

  24. Nah I aint going to scold him… just let me at him!! Just one or two hits that’s it! Ill make sure those hits count!!🤬🤬🤬🤬 and while im at it, bring that green tea looking lotus here so I can give him a piece of my mind too!!

  25. Hahaha… This is the first time I read the translator asking the readers to scold n curse the ML (even though he really deserves it)

  26. BOOM! The nail to the coffin. Hopefully the next chapter will be about Yanyan getting reality check. 🙏🏼
