Chapter 62
Chapter 62
Ever since Xu Shuangmian was left in Mid-Levels for a long time, he never called Cheng Xuan by his name or nickname, and insisted on using "he" to refer to him. Gao Yuan was used to it, so he answered fluently: "Uh, it should. Year-end How many prizes are there?"
"Speaking of which, Brother Yuan, how many years have you known him?"
"It's been seven years, young master, you only met after you went abroad to study."
"Is that so..." Xu Shuangmian was thoughtful, "Where's Ke Tinghan? Why do those people call him Second Lord Ke? Why doesn't he become his own boss when he's so powerful?"
"Ke Tinghan and I basically got to know the boss together. The nickname is just passed on by those who don't know him. He is generally good. Why did the young master suddenly ask this?" How could Gao Yuan let Xu Shuangmian know that the nickname is all thanks to him? It was a gift from the things that the boss instructed Ke Tinghan to do.
Xu Shuangmian came back to his senses, "Oh, it's nothing. I was curious after hearing what those people who kidnapped me said the other day, but I never found a chance to ask."
Then they must not know about Cheng Xilan's death in Renrong.Xu Shuangmian thought that a person probably knew those things.
I don't know if Cheng Xuan is in Hongxi or where, but Gao Yuan probably told him that Xu Shuangmian has arrived home, so he didn't call.Xu Shuangmian sat alone on the sofa, with his arms wrapped around his legs, curled up in a ball of thoughts.After eating at noon and sitting until the sun went down, when the servant came to turn on the lights when it was dark, he finally picked up the mobile phone that was thrown on the coffee table in front of him and sent Yi Xin a message.
When Cheng Xuan returned to Mid-Levels, the dinner hadn't even started yet. He felt apprehensive and a little happy, thinking that Xu Shuangmian hadn't waited for him to eat for the past few weeks, maybe he finally found out today.
Wang Ma went forward and reported to Cheng Xuan that it was indeed the young master who offered to wait for Cheng Xuan to eat.
He pretended to be calm: "Then eat quickly, he must be hungry after waiting so long."
Xu Shuangmian had already sat down in the restaurant, but not where he usually sat.A long table, he was at one end of the table, but Cheng Xuan's bowls and chopsticks were placed at the other end, as if the two were not going to eat, but to negotiate.
Seeing this posture, Cheng Xuan's face suddenly changed, and he lowered his face and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"I want to go out tomorrow to meet Yi Xin. He has been in a bad mood since Yi Bo left. It will be Chinese New Year soon. He wants to send Yi Bo back to his hometown, so I'm going to see him off." Xu Shuangmian didn't seem to care. Hearing Cheng Xuan's question, he said to himself, "Is it okay?"
Although he was asking if he could do it, but looking at his posture, if he said no, Xu Shuangmian might lift the table in the next second, and Cheng Xuan had a terrible headache, so he could only agree: "Yes, let Gao Yuan see you."
Of course, Gao Yuan still had to take someone to take him there, this was a concession he made because of Xu Shuangmian's cold face these days.
"Okay." Xu Shuangmian picked up the chopsticks, "Let's eat."
Feeling full, Cheng Xuan turned around and went upstairs where there was still room to eat.
The next day, Yi Xin asked Xu Shuangmian to meet at his home, and Gao Yuan had to wait downstairs.But Xu Shuangmian went upstairs and sat down for a while, and Yi Xin didn't see him off as usual.Gao Yuan didn't expect it to end so early, thinking that Xu Shuangmian was in a hurry to do other things, so he hurried up to ask, "Master, are we going home now?"
"Go home?" Xu Shuangmian stared at the snow that hadn't been shoveled off the ground for a long time, "Then go home. Go home."
Gao Yuan took him back to Mid-Levels again, and it was finally the holiday.
Cheng Xuan brought him into the house, seeing Xu Shuangmian's dull and pale face, he thought it was because he was frozen stupid, but for the Chinese New Year tomorrow, he just gave the servants in the middle of the mountain a holiday, and they were the only ones left in the whole house. I had no choice but to lead him to the sofa and let him sit down first, then got up to get a cup of hot cocoa for Xu Shuangmian.
"Ah Xuan," Cheng Xuan just walked past Xu Shuangmian, when the two stood and sat facing each other, Xu Shuangmian suddenly stopped him, "Do you remember Xu Zhengyan?"
Cheng Xuan tensed instantly, and his heart missed several beats. He was glad that his back was facing Xu Shuangmian at this moment, tried his best to calm his breathing, and replied: "I remember, of course I remember."
"Do you still remember that when he was young, every time he went back to the old house, he would call me a bastard. He didn't like me very much." Xu Shuangmian's calm narration made Cheng Xuan even more at a loss, "I often thought at that time, if I really Just as he said, he is a bastard, not his child. Then I can hate him generously."
"You're not," Cheng Xuan turned around, took the chattering man into his arms from behind, and interrupted him, "You're not some bastard. You're the treasure of the Cheng family."
Xu Shuangmian closed his eyes and let Cheng Xuan hug him. He thought of what he heard at Yi Xin's house today, and found it funny. The Cheng family's son.
But he only knew that his surname was Xu. Even though he was born and raised in the Cheng family, he was neither the son nor the treasure of the Cheng family.
He was hugged by Cheng Xuan, his lips opened and closed, but he didn't say anything.
Cheng Xuan finally noticed his abnormality and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Xu Shuangmian chose an indifferent question, "Ah Xuan, is there anything you didn't tell me?"
He circled Xu Shuangmian's arms and relieved some strength, "If so?"
"Why didn't you tell me?" Xu Shuangmian didn't ask Cheng Xuan what he didn't know, which made Cheng Xuan feel even more ashamed.
"Because, because..."
Because I'm a very greedy person, and I don't want you to know that my greedy and shameless face is hidden under this skin you like.
Xu Shuangmian pressed her every step: "Because of what?"
"It's nothing." Cheng Xuan let go of Xu Shuangmian, stood up and walked to the kitchen, asking as he walked, "Tomorrow is the Chinese New Year, do you want to go to the supermarket today?"
"I'm a little tired, I don't want to go." He asked wearily again in a low voice, "Ah Xuan, don't you really want to tell me?"
Cheng Xuan stopped in his tracks, he finally vaguely sensed what Xu Shuangmian was asking, but he was still unwilling to face it.
He clenched his fists unconsciously, and asked softly, "Isn't it good that we are doing this now?"
Xu Shuangmian also answered softly: "If everything started with a lie, it will never be good."
