After faking his death, he stopped pretending to be a substitute.

"You are also the son of Bai Zhongxu. You were born as the young master of the Bai family, and you own everything upright. But I can only live with my mother in the famous lover's district of the imperial capital, and suffer from the criticism of others. The word 'illegitimate child' is accompanied by My entire childhood and teenage years.”

"Even if you mother and son left the Bai family later, Bai Zhongxu had no intention of taking us back. I finally saved Song Yanxi and became the savior of the Song family. I was taken back by Bai Zhongxu, but Bai Zhongxu still did not let go of you mother and son. , I have been sending people secretly to look for you. I am terrified day and night, worried that I will lose my identity as the eldest young master of the Bai family that I finally obtained."

Hearing this, Chu Yanyi frowned silently, but he did not interrupt Bai Lian, but patiently listened to him continue.

"In order to prevent myself from losing everything, I deliberately catered to Yanxi's preferences and changed my dressing style according to his preferences. I obviously don't like white suits, but because Yanxi likes them, all my clothes have changed into various styles. All kinds of little white suits. That "Piano Concerto No. 3" is really difficult to learn, but because Yanxi likes to listen to it, I locked myself at home for the whole summer just to learn this piece."

"Finally, Yanxi found me in his eyes and brought me into his circle. I became the eldest young master of the Bai family who is sought after by everyone in the circle. I no longer have to worry about you coming back to take away everything I have, but I am still being plotted by you. I lost face and became a joke in everyone’s eyes.”

"Obviously I was born before you and am the eldest young master of the Bai family, but because of you I became an 'illegitimate child' who was criticized by others. It is obvious that Yanxi likes me, but in order to retaliate against the Bai family, you tried your best to take her away. Him, let him ignore my life-saving grace for you and refuse to save the Bai family. Chu Yanyi, I really hate you! I have hated you since I was sensible, and I wish you could die! "

Chu Yanyi had been listening quietly, without saying a word from beginning to end. Apart from the previous frown, there was no anger in his eyes, and there was no change in his face.

It wasn't until Bai Lian finally stopped talking that he narrowed his eyes with a cold expression: "Don't you think your shameless 'victim's guilt theory' is ridiculous?"

"It was you, mother and son, who destroyed my mother's family. It was you who killed my unborn brother. But you turned around and said you hated me, thinking that I was the one who caused you to become an 'illegitimate child' and that I took away what was rightfully yours." s things."

"The way you forcefully transfer fault and guilt to me is no different from those heinous sexual assaults in life? Those sexual assaults clearly committed the crime, but they thought it was the victim who seduced him through revealing clothing and debauched behavior. I didn't understand why you pushed my mother downstairs at the age of six, but now it's not difficult to understand. It's because your psychology has been so twisted since you were a child."

Bai Lian's lips moved, wanting to speak out to argue, but her gaze inadvertently met Chu Yanyi's cold eyes, and he was slightly distracted.

"Xiao Bailian, you keep saying that Song Yanxi likes you, but you don't know that Song Yanxi has never liked you from the beginning to the end. The reason why he is good to you is not only because of saving his life, but also because you look like him. The person I met by chance years ago." Chu Yan's shining eyes were dark and heavy under the warm orange street lights: "The person Song Yanxi met by chance ten years ago was me, so you are the substitute, my substitute. .”

Bai Lian was stunned for a moment, then retorted sharply: "...No, it's impossible! I can't be your substitute!"

Chu Yanyi laughed softly: "Do you know why Song Yanxi likes boys who wear white suits and can play the piano? It's because when he met me, I was wearing a white suit and playing the piano. Even he left his apartment Planting all white roses is not because you like white roses, but because I gave him a bouquet of white roses."

If Song Yanxi knew that he gave him the bouquet of white roses because he didn't like white roses and felt it was a hassle but didn't want to let down the person who gave them, so he gave them to him. Full of white roses?

Chu Yanyi's voice was steady and calm. When he said these words, there was no trace of pride on his face, as if he was just talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

Bai Lian couldn't recover from the shock of learning the truth for a long time. When he came back to his senses in shock, the person standing opposite had already walked towards the flower bed.

"How could this be? How could I be Chu Yanyi's substitute..." He murmured, still a little unbelievable.

He came back from abroad half a year ago and asked Song Yanxi to accompany him to the high school they attended. In order to get Song Yanxi to take the initiative to confess to him, he deliberately asked the other party when he discovered that he liked boys. Song Yanxi's answer at that time was when he was 17 years old. .

At that time, he realized that he was not Song Yanxi's first love, but he never thought that he was the substitute.

He is the stand-in for Chu Yanyi, the person he has hated the most since childhood.

My mother has been with Bai Zhongxu for nearly thirty years, and has given birth to three children, but she has never received a status.

He had just learned that his mother was just a stand-in for Bai Zhongxu's first love who died early, and now he learned that he was also a stand-in for Chu Yanyi, the person Song Yanxi fell in love with at first sight.

His life and that of his mother were really ridiculous and pathetic.

Chu Yanyi stood quietly in front of the flower bed. Two months ago, when Bai Zhongxu wanted to take advantage of him, he had someone change the flower bed originally planted with roses into Phalaenopsis, which was not suitable for outdoor planting.

After taking advantage of his failure, Bai Zhongxu immediately had the Phalaenopsis in the flower bed eradicated and replanted with the previous flowers.

Haha, he is really a complete egoist.

When he was of use to him before, he could tolerate and indulge in every possible way, and even do things that went against his own preferences and principles. Once he lost his use to him, he was not even willing to pretend.

Such a person really doesn't understand what his mother saw in him back then.

Even though she knew he was cheating on her during the marriage, she still loved her wholeheartedly and didn't want to get divorced.

If her mother was interested in Bai Zhongxu's skin, Bai Zhongxu's skin was not much prettier than others.

Chu Yanyi's eyes were fixed on the lush flower branches, his eyes dark and obscure.

He was only wearing a black velvet shirt and forgot to put on a coat before going out.

It's just right to wear it this way during the day, but it feels a little cold at night.

The cool night breeze blew over, and his body trembled involuntarily.

There were footsteps behind him, the sound was very soft and steady, as if he was afraid of startling him.

Chu Yanyi blinked his black and slender eyelashes, and he could probably guess who the visitor was.

He didn't pay attention and didn't look back, his eyes still rested on the flower branches swaying slightly in the night wind.

A few seconds later, the footsteps behind him stopped suddenly, and a coat with residual warmth was draped on him.
