Ye Chen told him not to move, so Zhao Qianyang quieted down and then carefully lay down on Ye Chen.

You could even feel his strong, iron-clad chest through his clothes.

Looking at those resolute brows, Zhao Qianyang felt his heart pounding.

Especially when Ye Chen hugged him tightly, he felt like his heart was about to explode.

It was no less intense than the last time I bathed Ye Chen, and it was the only time.

Are you feeling better?

Finally, perhaps unable to suppress the emotions surging within him, Zhao Qianyang asked softly.

Ye Chen shook his head and did not answer.

Actually, he had already recovered, but looking at the "Su Yang" in front of him made him not quite remember him for a moment.

He used a little more force in his arms, and as a result, Zhao Qianyang pressed himself even closer to him.

The two were now closer together, and Zhao Qianyang could even feel Ye Chen's breath.

Their eyes met, but were only inches apart.

He had never been so close to him before, which made him even more flustered.

"Ye Chen, if—and I mean if—I..."

With a look of tension in his eyes, Zhao Qianyang stared into Ye Chen's eyes.

It seems there is still a glimmer of hope.

Her thin lips parted slightly as if she were about to say something to him.

But when Zhao Qianyang was halfway through his speech, he suddenly remembered Su Yang's warning to him and the ancient divine doctor.

Then the hope in his eyes quickly faded, leaving only a somewhat complicated and indescribable feeling.

This scene happened to be seen by Ye Chen, who was still listening carefully to what "Su Yang" had to say to him.

However, it was unclear why the other party stopped halfway through their sentence.

Even his expression instantly turned so dejected.

Ye Chen wanted to comfort Su Yang, but for some reason, he didn't know where to begin.

He could only smile at Zhao Qianyang and then say something.

"What's wrong? You can tell me anything. No matter what, I'll always be on your side. There's no need for us to hold back."

Ye Chen's eyes revealed seriousness, and his words carried a tenderness that Zhao Qianyang had never experienced before.

However, even though Ye Chen's tenderness was directed at him at this moment.

But Zhao Qianyang also knew that the reason he was like this was simply because he saw Su Yang in his eyes at that moment.

Not the eldest son of the Zhao family who has only ever caused him trouble since childhood.

A bitter feeling welled up in my heart.

Zhao Qianyang was naturally not happy.

I can't help but regret why I did those things in the past.

She looked at Ye Chen with slightly red eyes.

At that moment, he really wanted to tell him who he was, but he stopped himself.

He was afraid that if he told Ye Chen, Su Yang would hurt him.

However, Zhao Qianyang also knew that there was another reason why he hesitated.

That is, he was also afraid that he would lose Ye Chen if he told the truth.

To reiterate, he was merely Su Yang's substitute, a figurehead who stayed by Ye Chen's side in his place.

If he loses Su Yang's identity, it also means he will lose him.

"It's okay, I'm fine."

Gently resting her head on Ye Chen's chest, listening to his heartbeat, Zhao Qianyang continued, "What I want to ask you is, if I told you I like you, would you accept me?"

They chose to conceal the truth.

But Zhao Qianyang took this opportunity to say what he had kept in his heart for so many years.

If he were still Zhao Qianyang, this is something he would never say in front of Ye Chen in his entire life.

But it was said at this particular moment and in this particular setting.

But Ye Chen did not answer.

His voice remained silent for a long time.

Zhao Qianyang felt a little flustered, afraid that he would hear an answer he didn't want to hear.

"I was just saying it randomly, just kidding, don't take it seriously."

After all, you and I are both...

Zhao Qianyang tried to turn the page on this matter.

But when he looked up at Ye Chen, he couldn't utter the last two words.

Because at this moment, Ye Chen was looking at him with eyes full of affection.

"How can you just say such things?"

I took it seriously.

After saying that, Ye Chen suddenly moved closer to Zhao Qianyang and kissed his thin lips.

"Waaah~"

Zhao Qianyang was startled by Ye Chen's sudden treatment, and then his mind went blank.

Then, when he realized what was happening, he didn't push the other person away; instead, he lowered his head.

Because Ye Chen was still injured, it would be tiring for him to keep his head out of the way...

In the storefront next to Gushengtang.

The Bai family bought all the properties around the alley, and now they have all been opened up and renovated.

Su Yang was lying in the rocking chair, rubbing two walnuts with one hand, but suddenly stopped.

Then his face revealed a picture of an elderly person looking at their phone on the subway.

After all, he had seen everything next door, so it's no wonder he acted that way.

"Lord Su, it's your turn."

Next to the recliner was a wooden chessboard, and opposite it sat an elderly man with white hair.

Upon hearing this, Su Yang remained unmoved.

But the black pieces on the table flew up on their own and landed on the board.

The old man opposite him was not surprised by this scene.

Having spent so much time with Su Yang, he was no longer surprised by anything.

The old man was none other than the patriarch of the Bai family.

After being rescued by Su Yang that day, the old man did not rush back to the Bai family.

Instead, they chose to stay here.
