After the Stand-in Shou Faked His DeathCh38 - Why don’t you try with XiuZhu?

On the day of the Qingming Festival, He Yang went to the cemetery.

However, He Yang still sat in the car and did not get out, quietly watching the people coming and going in the cemetery. 2T6ABV

In He Yang’s palm, he was still holding that wooden tag.

【May XianSheng be safe year after year.】

He Yang lowered his head, rubbed the handwriting with his fingertips and was a little lost, as if he was recalling something.

He Yang stayed outside the cemetery from noon until evening, and then said to Uncle Zhou, “Bar.” OGcNF9

Uncle Zhou was also used to it. Every time He Yang just glanced outside the cemetery and would not go in.

Uncle Zhou sent him to the bar, and He Yang came to the box as usual.

It’s just that when He Yang came in this time, he saw Shen XiuZhu besides the group of rich second-generation young masters who liked to play crazy.

Shen XiuZhu seldom came to the bar, and only occasionally came to get together.

He Yang walked over and asked, “Why did you come here?”

“They said you’ve been drinking for the past few days.” Shen XiuZhu narrowed his eyes and smiled, “They let me come over and persuade you.”

He Yang didn’t say anything. He opened a bottle of wine from the table and came to the sofa.

Shen XiuZhu persuaded: “It’s better to drink a little less. It’s not good for your health.” oP5mtM

Someone next to him saw it, and he dared to come over and persuade: “Young Master He, it’s been so long since the Yanyan thing, it’s time to move on.”

“Yes, Young Master He should still cherish the people around you.”

Suddenly someone said, “Young Master He, why don’t you want to try it with XiuZhu?”

As soon as these words came out, others also persuaded him. sROG20

“XiuZhu is also very good. Doesn’t Young Master He know XiuZhu for a long time?

“Yanyan is no longer here, but XiuZhu is still there!”

“If it wasn’t for XiuZhu to go abroad that time, Young Master He and XiuZhu would have been together long ago…….”

He Yang looked down at the wine in the glass. He didn’t speak, and they didn’t know what he was thinking. 2KVnA8

Shen XiuZhu beside him narrowed his eyes, and after the others had finished speaking, he then said with a smile, “Okay, let’s stop joking.”

It was also not good for the others to continue it, so they quickly changed to another topic.

And He Yang didn’t react from the beginning to the end, leaning on the sofa and drinking wine, he didn’t pay much attention to everything around him.

After the party was over, He Yang got up and said to the person beside him, “I’ll take you back.” TgbAPv

The Jiang’an community was not very far from the bar, so He Yang took Shen XiuZhu downstairs to the apartment.

“No matter what, we will be by your side.” Shen XiuZhu stretched out his hand and gently hugged the man in front of him.

He Yang was still standing there. He felt the warmth in his arms. He lowered his eyes and raised his hand slightly. cz6lKU

But just when He Yang was about to push away, he suddenly noticed a figure in front of him, and the movement of his hand suddenly stopped.

In the garden not far away, a gentle-looking young man stood under the street light, looking up and smiling at him.

He Yang stared fixedly at the young man under the street light. He pushed the person in his arms away with a little force, and walked towards the garden step by step.

Shen XiuZhu noticed He Yang’s movements. He followed He Yang’s line of sight and saw nothing. So, he shouted with some doubts: “He Yang?” eVd6Xl

He Yang ignored him and just continued walking in the direction of the young man.

But when He Yang was about to arrive in front of the young man, the young man’s figure suddenly faded.

The figure disappeared into the air little by little. He Yang quickly stepped forward. He stood alone under the street light, and reached out to touch it.

But there was nothing in front of him, and he didn’t touch anything. mANE68

He Yang looked at his empty palms and was a little lost for a while.

Another hallucination.

“What’s wrong?” Shen XiuZhu was worried and came to He Yang’s side.

He Yang lowered his head and stared at the palm of his hand for a while, as if he didn’t hear it, and he didn’t make a sound. sQnYz4

Shen XiuZhu looked at the ring on He Yang’s hand, frowned slightly, and said, “He Yang, we are all worried about you. Xu ChengYan has already ——”

“Shen XiuZhu.” He Yang interrupted, and said slowly: “You should go back.”

Shen XiuZhu opened his mouth, but in the end he didn’t say anything, just turned around and entered the apartment building.

He Yang also returned to the car and was sent back to the apartment by Uncle Zhou. M2NdWF

The apartment was very deserted. He Yang didn’t turn on the lights, and habitually came to the balcony to sit, holding the wooden tag in his hand.

The edge of the handwriting on the wooden tag had faded to gray-white, but He Yang was still rubbing the handwriting over and over again.

After a long time, He Yang got up and went to the study, and put the wooden tag in the drawer of the bookcase.

He Yang looked at the wooden tag in the drawer, and finally closed the drawer and locked it. 4aogrb

It’s been two years. It’s time to let it go.

***

Life gradually returned to calm.

He Yang stayed in the company every day and seldom went to the bar. uh1pzc

There was a lot of work piled up, and after working every day, he had no energy to think about other things.

Although he could occasionally see Xu ChengYan in the crowd, or hear Xu ChengYan’s voice, he was not affected by it much.

He got used to it.

He Yang put the finished documents aside, leaned back on the chair and rubbed his eyebrows. ACdORB

After a while, the secretary knocked on the door, handed over a new document, and reminded: “Young Master He, the holiday resort’s side is ready. Do you want to go and inspect it?”

He Yang took a look at the document and said casually: “You arrange it.”

Please support our translators at chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

The secretary followed the order and arranged the inspection schedule as quickly as possible.

The place to be inspected was in Xicheng. The secretary prepared to hand over the work, and then he and He Yang went on a business trip to Xicheng. Lg wrZ

When the two came to the resort, the owner and manager brought a group of people waiting outside to greet them.

He Yang entered the hotel lobby. He suddenly noticed the movement on the third floor, and glanced up.

In the corridor on the third floor, some staffs were busy moving around, carrying various equipment.

The manager quickly explained: “Young Master He, there is a crew over there moving in and they are moving things…….” KJeom2

The manager was worried that the movement of the crew would disturb He Yang, so he cautiously said, “Why don’t I tell them, to do it quietly?”

“No need.” He Yang looked away, not caring about it.

In the corridor on the third floor, a young woman with long curly hair leaned against the railing, watching the group of people on the first floor. m9vi3L

The young woman was quietly looking at the man in the middle of the crowd. She noticed footsteps behind her, and looked back subconsciously.

“Zhou Zhou.” The young woman narrowed her eyes with a smile.

Qin Zhou came over and asked, “Why don’t you go to rest?”

“It’s too boring, so I come out for a walk.” Su Tang leaned on the railing, looked at the man below, and sighed: “By the way, let’s take a look at the real-life version of the domineering president.” p3tJEg

Qin Zhou followed Su Tang’s line of sight to the first floor, saw the man in the crowd at a glance. He was stunned for a moment.

The man was wearing a black suit with a cold expression on his face and had a very strong aura, and he was surrounded by a group of people.

Qin Zhou looked at the man’s figure and found that He Yang was still the same as he remembered.

Two years had passed, but time had not left any traces on the man. 6w0M O

He Yang was still so indifferent, yet so aloof.

“I don’t know where that big shot came from…….” Su Tang muttered, “Anyway, he’s quite handsome.”

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Su Tang hooked her hair with her fingers in boredom and said, “If Brother Zheng recommended me to such a handsome guy, I’m willing to be kept…….”

Qin Zhou asked: “Brother Zheng. What did he say to you again?” GCwKNE

“Isn’t it still that thing? He hints to me every day which big boss is missing someone…….” Su Tang frowned, “An old and ugly greasy middle-aged man.”

Qin Zhou: “Don’t listen to him.”

“Not yet.” Su Tang sighed, “But I don’t know in the future.”

“If one day I really had to agree with Brother Zheng, at least he had to find me a more handsome sponsor.” Su Tang laughed a little self-deprecatingly, and added, “I think the one on the first floor is pretty good.” AxyjkY

“But it seems that these rich people, I heard that they usually have some special hobbies………” Su Tang thought for a while, then shook her head and said, “It’s not worth it if you get killed.”

Qin Zhou looked at that figure and didn’t speak.

It’s unclear whether other people have any special hobbies on the bed, but at least he knew that the young master of the He family did not.

He just liked to cover his eyes, and also liked the doggy style. atOIDy

“He is really stoic and cool.” Su Tang stared at the big shot for a long time and sighed: “It’s like the iceberg male protagonist in the novel.”

“When I read the novel in the future, I can substitute the face of the iceberg president with his.” Su Tang smiled, her fingertips tangled in the ends of her hair.

“Huh?” Qin Zhou looked over.

Su Tang patiently said: “Think about it, such a cold and abstinent person, who doesn’t care about others, and only crazy for you ——” cXIqz8

Qin Zhou heard it, but suddenly laughed: “Impossible.”

Qin Zhou leaned against the railing, a pair of deep peach blossom eyes slightly curved.

Icebergs will always be icebergs, they won’t melt.

“But the more aloof and abstinent people are, the more crazy they are when they like someone.” Su Tang held her chin, “Maybe it’s because I read too many novels, and I like this kind of aloof and abstinent type.” 5qtlGj

Su Tang: “He’s cold and abstinent to outsiders, and his treatment is only special to the person he likes, and it has a unique feeling.”

When he heard this, Qin Zhou responded, “Indeed.”

This unique sense of being the one and only was really fascinating.

At the beginning, he was also attracted by this “unique feeling”, thinking that he was the one and only one around He Yang. v5WH d

But in the end, he realized that it was just an unreciprocated affection.

Maybe the iceberg will melt one day, but the person who melts the iceberg would not be him.

Qin Zhou looked at the figure of the man below quietly, with a slight smile on his face, but his peach blossom eyes were very indifferent, as if he was looking at an insignificant stranger ——

Well, he’s really just a stranger. 3DuJg7

  1. I hope there will be a chapter where it shows how QZ managed to achieve the situation he’s currently in. e g. did he crawl from the car and went to the neighboring province? whose body did they cremate if there was two of them? Tbh I can’t remember if they mentioned how many corpses there was, just assumed they found two

    ¯_(ツ)_/¯

  2. Aiya it’s good he stopped drinking, I was worried he’d end up with a beer belly by the time he and MC met again.

  3. I am kind of mad at MC since he could totally contact JL. He suffered so much and clearly hates HY. I doubt he would tell him anything. I just wish they could be happy together ;-; Can someone writw a fanfic? I need it

  4. So he remembers … 😢 I can already feel my heart breaking from the drama to come. But SXZ really is such a b*** why do I keep getting the feeling that he has planed it all out to seduce the cold iceberg to get rich again and not because he loves him. 😓

  5. Argh… Waiting for the recognition when He Yang sees him. Will he properly recognise him or desire him for a stand-in…

  6. Yanyan 😭…. jiejie is sooo sooo proud of you 🤧

    SZX does not love HY… he is after the money… and status. 🤷

  7. Finally!!! Xu ChengYan has let go of the scum gong and is moving on! The day i’ve been waiting for for so long is finally here💃

  8. Damn I thought amnesia happened but good! No HY making him a substitute for himself or again… but damn are they foreshadowing… HY doesn’t deserve him

  9. People mostly had that notion that when they saw a person that seems impossible to reach they had that gut feeling they can change a person and the more they tried to please that person and make them change it actually gets worst the other person tends to be complacent. What was wrong with yanyan he expected too much he expected that he would be able to change he yang and he overestimated himself. That’s already a flag in a relationship. While the other was a sc*m he is already a ceo and has some responsibilities but his attitude is not right, still going to bar and play with those useless 2nd gen masters this type of aloof and cold people is the hardest to love and will only gave you heartaches
