Chapter 5 He is just a substitute for someone else

Gradually, Shen Lubai had no strength to struggle and just stood there motionless.

If Shen Lubai opened his eyes now, he would find that Huo Ting's eyes at this moment were like a ferocious beast, very dangerous.

The clear sky outside the window was cloudless, forming a sharp contrast with the dim room.

In the hot summer, the cicadas on the roadside trees are chirping all the time, making it very lively.

The sound insulation in Huo Ting's office is very good, and you can't hear any sound from outside.

When Shen Lubai opened his eyes again, it was already night.

He opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling, then looked around. Suddenly, everything that happened in the afternoon flooded into his mind.

With a bang, Shen Lubai's forehead became red, and his neck and face were as red as a monkey's butt.

He, he, he... Since he and Huo Ting are like that...

But it was really sweet. Shen Lubai grabbed the quilt in front of his chest with both hands.

Sometimes he frowned, sometimes he was shy, and sometimes he smiled foolishly.

That scene was so funny, he was just like a little fool.

No!!!

Shen Lubai suddenly realized that this was not Huo Ting's office room.

The young man sat up all of a sudden in excitement.

"hiss--"

Shen Lubai took a breath of cool air. What was going on? Why did it hurt so much?

Shen Lubai immediately fell back onto the bed.

He lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.

Where is Huo Ting?

Why didn't he see Huo Ting after waking up for so long?

Inexplicably, he thought of what the front desk lady told him at noon, that Huo Ting was heartbroken.

Their eternally cold president is heartbroken!!!

Could it be that he was just venting his anger towards me, or was I really just someone's substitute?

It’s over. I feel like crying again.

Shen Lubai felt that he was really useless and cried all the time, which really brought shame to his male compatriots.

But he didn't want to be like this, he just had more developed tear glands than ordinary people.

When Huo Ting came in, he saw Shen Lubai lying on the bed, crying silently.

His heart ached.

He was wrong in this matter, but he didn't regret it at all. Shen Lubai would never be able to leave him in this life.

Unless he dies.

But every time he saw him crying, he felt heartbroken.

Shen Lubai has been a crybaby since he was a child, but recently he seems to have made him cry more often.

Huo Ting sighed, finally gave up, sat by the bed and coaxed the boy softly.

"Be good, don't cry. It's useless even if you cry. You will always be mine for the rest of your life."

How should I put it? The boss's way of comforting people is different from others.

Well, this is very Huo Ting.

"So am I really someone else's replacement?"

"What substitute?"

Why is Shen Lubai's mind so weird?

Huo Ting will be twenty-five in a few months. He is almost five years older than Shen Lubai, so in his eyes Shen Lubai is just like a child.

"Am I not someone else's stand-in? When I went to your company, they all told me that you had a broken heart today."

"So the one you liked was never me, right? Did the person you liked get married, so you fell out of love?"

What is Shen Lubai talking about?

How could Huo Ting hear it so confused? He seemed to have misunderstood something.

But he was sure that someone in the company must have said something in front of him.

It seems that I have been too nice to them recently, so much so that they can still chat about gossip leisurely during work hours.

All of Huo's employees suddenly felt a chill behind them.

I always feel like something bad is going to happen.

Huo Ting wiped the tears of the boy in the quilt and said helplessly, "where do I get any little lover? I have always liked you."

The straightforward confession came unexpectedly, and Shen Lubai looked at Huo Ting in surprise.

What did he just hear?

So Huo Ting didn't fall in love at all, nor did he like anyone else.

"I am a little grumpy today, but isn't that because of you?"

"Because of me?"

Shen Lubai pointed at himself.

"Have you forgotten what happened this morning? Which little bastard wanted to run away with someone this morning?"

"If I had arrived a little later, would you have run off with someone else?"

Huo Ting gave all his life's tenderness to the boy, and he patiently explained to him.

Shen Lubai blushed, it turned out to be a misunderstanding.

He shed so many tears in vain and lost so much water in his body.

No, I have to drink a bucket of water later.

However, he should explain it to Huo Ting.

Shen Lubai sat up suddenly, and suddenly forgot the wound on his back. He gasped in pain.

"Be careful."

Finally, Shen Lubai lay down again.

He eagerly grabbed Huo Ting's hand and said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault today, but I don't really want to have a private relationship with Qin Yicheng - ah, run away."

"I was deceived by them. I only discovered their true colors today."

"I don't like him. I only like you and I have always liked you."

After Shen Lubai finished speaking, he looked at Huo Ting nervously, or more like he was waiting for a verdict.

"Yes, I know."

However, Huo Ting did not get too upset by Shen Lubai's words.

"You don't believe me?"

"I believe it."

Shen Lubai always felt that something was strange, but he couldn't tell where it was. Fortunately, Huo Ting believed him.

"You must be hungry. I'll go get some porridge. I saw you weren't awake yet, so I left it warm in the kitchen."

kitchen?

Shen Lubai looked around again, and suddenly remembered that this was Huo Ting's villa.

And it was in his room that I fell asleep.

He remembered that he had always lived with Huo Ting before he was provoked by the traitor.

Huo Ting took himself home, but he didn't wake up at all.

Going downstairs, Huo Ting walked into the kitchen.

A servant said that he could bring it to Shen Lubai, but Huo Ting refused.

Huo Ting looked at the porridge in the bowl and thought about what Shen Lubai had just said.

This was not the first time Shen Lubai confessed his love. When was the last time?

What was his expression when he heard Shen Lubai's confession? He was ecstatic and incredulous.

I even felt that it was my sincerity that touched him.

But the happiness did not last long. Happiness was too short-lived, so short-lived that it was fleeting.

The next day, when he went to pick up Shen Lubai to take home, he saw that the little guy who had confessed to him yesterday was walking with another man today.

He had always known that Shen Lubai liked that boy. He thought he had finally come to his senses, but he didn't expect that it was all his fault.

All of this is ultimately just my own delusion.
