Chapter 225: Stand-in Lover (37)
World Seven. Stand-in Lover (37)
Xue Xue knew that Chi Yu and Xue Dehui had known each other for a long time, otherwise there would not be the scene of her ex-lover wearing a white suit stepping into the office in Xue Lis memory.
She was surprised that Chi Yu and Xue Dehui knew each other earlier than she thought.
Two years ago
I found out later that he is your boyfriend. Xue Dehui touched the thin white body of the cigarette with his fingertips, and sparks and ashes fell to the ground together.
Xue Xue didnt know how much later Xue Dehui was talking about, but apart from this time, the usual interaction between the two was really limited, and it was a state of not seeing the king unless official affairs, let alone in private affairs.
Thats why you came to remind me that Chi Yu is not innocent?
Xue Dehui gave a noncommittal Hmm.
Xue Xue found that she couldnt figure out the man in front of her.
Chi Yu has secrets, and his personality is capricious. She didnt know when she will step on that warning line and what the consequences will be, but most of the time, Chi Yu can still use common sense to judge, what he does and what he thinks there are traces to follow.
Xue Xue knew that this was partly due to Xue Lis memory and the daily dealings between lovers, but when facing Chi Yu, she was able to cope with it, not to say that she had the upper hand, but at least she was in an equal and reciprocal relationship with him.
But Xue Dehui was different.
When the other partys attitude and performance deviated from what they remembered, Xue Xue only felt annoyed.
But Xue Dehuis attitude is not the top priority, she always has time to sort out these things slowly.
And then?
What then?
You told me that Xue Zhen introduced Chi Yu to you very early on, and that Chi Yu was not innocent. I know this now, and then what? Xue Xue felt a bit of coldness creeping into her collar, and couldnt help wrapping the shawl tighter. What do you mean? Chi Yu approached me for another purpose? To show off? Even if thats the case, we havent been dating for a day or two, and hes had so many opportunities, so why is he still holding back?
A series of questions jumped out.
Xue Dehui was caught off guard by Xue Xues intentional attack, so as to reveal more information.
She was really tired of this kind of half-hearted conversation, like pulling out a ball of wool. The more she pulled, the more confused she became.
Thinking of this, she straightened her body, looked up at Xue Dehui slightly with a seemingly arrogant attitude.
Xue Zhens height is considered average among men, but after adding Gao Yinyins model genes, Xue Dehui is at least 1.85 to 1.9 meters by visual inspection. Plus the man is diligent in exercising, his figure looks tall and straight, like a pine and cypress standing in the dark.
Xue Xue didnt want to lose in terms of momentum.
If you have nothing else to say, I think
Actually, my dad doesnt know one thing.
Just when Xue Xue decided to end the conversation, Xue Dehui interrupted her.
Xue Xues slender, glittering willow-leaf eyebrows slowly wrinkled, and several folds were made.
What?
Ive seen Chi Yu a long time ago. Xue Dehui stamped out his cigarette with his pointed leather shoe as he said. I cant remember the exact time, but Im sure that the person I met was Chi Yu.
Do you know where I saw him?
The deep baritone voice was magnetic and steady, however, for no reason, Xue Xue heard something wrong from it.
Her intuition made her tremble all over. It wasnt fear, but her heart contracted suddenly, throbbing in pain.
Especially after listening to Xue Dehuis self-question and self-answer.
A mental hospital.
I saw him in a private mental hospital.
Gao Yinyin has a younger brother who suffers from mental illness. Although Gao Yinyin intervened in a mans marriage as a third party, she can be said to give her heart and soul to her family, especially to her younger brother who has been dependent on her for a long time after her parents died one after another.
The eldest sister is like a mother, and Gao Yinyin used to hold several jobs just to support her only remaining relative.
And since she and Xue Zhen reunited by chance and gave birth to Xue Dehui, the man has been extraordinarily generous to her in terms of money, which made Gao Yinyin able to send her younger brother to the top private mental hospital with the most advanced equipment and the most complete facilities in the country.
Gao Yinyin would visit her younger brother once a month, talk to him, and take him for a walk. Although her brother doesnt recognize anyone, occasionally calling her sister to the air can give Gao Yinyin great comfort.
Xue Dehui met Chi Yu when he and Gao Yinyin were visiting his uncle.
A person will meet many people in his life, some of whom are overlapping, some of whom are passing by, some of whom just a glimpseThe reason why Xue Dehui has a deep impression on a man who he only met once was because of Chi Yus outstanding face.
At that time, Chi Yu was just a teenager, and his indistinguishable temperament was stronger than that of an adult. His complexion was very pale, and his black eyes were as black as thick ink, and his red lips were like rouge. Chi Yus whole body was like a piece of white and soft feathers. It seemed that if the wind was slightly stronger, he would be blown away.
But soon Xue Dehui knew that everything was just an illusion.
When Chi Yu glanced at him lightly, Xue Dehui still remembered the strange cold feeling, the numbness and pain as if his entire back had been cut by an ice pick.
There was no vitality in Chi Yus eyes.
Like a dying old man, swearing a beautiful facade of youth, but no way to hide the nature of imminent decay.
Because the impression was so deep, the moment he opened the door and saw Chi Yu, his mind immediately flooded with memories of him.
At the moment when his eyes met Chi Yus, Xue Dehui shuddered.
He considered himself bold, but this boldness was soon crushed little by little in the stare-down with the man.
Chi Yu stared at Xue Dehui like a poisonous snake staring at its prey.
Beads of sweat were faintly appearing on his forehead. Even though the air conditioner in the room was only twenty degrees, Xue Dehui had the illusion that he was being baked under the scorching sun.
This is the eldest son I told you about, Xue Dehui.
It was not until Xue Zhens voice broke the silence that he was rescued from the illusion that was too real.
Xue Zhen licked his face, without the slightest air of condescension and calmness that he was used to in front of people.
Come over and say hello to Mr. Chi!
The last sentence was turned to Xue Dehui.
Xue Dehui didnt want to move, but under his fathers eager eyes, he slowly shuffled to stand in front of Chi Yu.
Chi Yu looked him up and down, as if he was appraising the goods, full of calculation and pondering, and also a bit of disgusted indifference.
Hello. After a long time, when Xue Dehui thought that the other party would not make any moves, Chi Yu slowly stretched out his hand under Xue Zhens nervous eyes, which were full of expectation and excitement. My name is Chi Yu.
