The actor is my predecessor who was scumbag

"Did you not sleep all night?"

Cahill came down from upstairs and saw Jian Huai who was busy at the dining table.

Jian Huai put the noodle soup and rice into a bowl, the food on the table was steaming, he said: "I slept for a while."

"Shouldn't it be 1 minute now?" Cahill looked at his pale and frightening face, and the thick dark circles under his eyes, and couldn't stop sighing.

Jian Huai tried his best to smile: "Maybe 2 minutes."

He belongs to the type of person who can never sleep for a long time if he has something on his mind, and it is precisely because of this that he can't sleep at all.

All I can think about in my mind are all kinds of things about my parents.

He thought of his parents' love for him when he was a child, and his mother was especially kind to him, pampering him endlessly, and supporting him no matter what whim he had.

But his father was much stricter. What his father often said was to be strict with himself and strive to be successful.

It's just that when he was young, he always had this in his left ear and out in his right ear.

"What are your plans for today?" Cahill sat down on the dining table and chairs. The man who looked polite outside was very casual at home. He was wearing exaggerated black trendy clothes and his hair was messy, as if he was a man who hadn't tidied up. chicken coop.

Jian Huai stirred the noodle soup with a spoon: "There is no arrangement."

"It's not going to work when you shut yourself in at home, the more you're alone, the easier it is to get into a corner," Cahill said.

Jian Huai smiled helplessly: "I'll be leaving in a while."

Cahill was stunned: "To see Shen Xiangheng?"

"No." Jian Huai said, "Go back to China."

"..."

There was a moment of silence at the table.

Cahill understands that Jian Huai is in a somewhat chaotic mood, but he really didn't expect that Jian Huai would return to China so soon in order to hide from Shen Xiangheng.

"The matter about your parents..." Cahill said, "I will check it for you. Do you think you can hide Shen Xiangheng when you return to China?"

Jian Huai whispered: "Thank you, but no need, I probably already know who it is."

Cahill raised his eyelids and glanced at him: "Then what are you going to do?"

The question now is not whether he knows who it is, but what he is going to do, whether to choose revenge or turn a blind eye.

Jian Huai continued to stir the noodle soup: "That's his father."

It was Shen Xiangheng's father.

Jian Huai has no relatives in this world, but Shen Xiangheng is his most important person and the person he loves the most.

He hates Shen Zhen, and Shen Zhen is also the father of the person he loves the most.

Cahill couldn't take it anymore: "What are you thinking?"

"I want him to be punished." Jian Huai's eyes were red and his voice was hoarse. He raised his head and looked at Cahill, "If it's really him, I want him to be punished."

Cahill sighed leisurely: "The risk of doing this is that you and Shen Xiangheng may break up completely."

Jian Huai lowered his head silently.

In fact, it's not that he hasn't thought about such an ending, he's not hiding from Shen Xiangheng, he's just hiding from a result.

It was his father who was afraid of being chosen by Shen Xiangheng instead of him.

He was never firmly chosen.

"Jian Huai," Cahill called his name, "you go to him and explain clearly."

Jian Huai raised her head, a little surprised.

"If he chooses you, then you have nothing to worry about. With Shen Xiangheng's ability, he can protect you." Cahir paused, "If he is on the side of father, I advise you to give up..."

Jian Huai: "Then I—"

Cahill sneered: "Then you should break up with him."

Stop it.

These three words were like a huge boulder suddenly pressed down, making Jian Huai unable to breathe.

"You can't hide from him forever, and he won't let you hide." Cahill continued to eat, "Things have to come to an end. Avoiding is not the solution to the problem."

Jian Huai nodded: "Okay."

The winter in the United States is not too cold this year. There are a few birds outside the house looking for food on the lawn. As soon as Jian Huai opened the door, he saw Shen Xiangheng standing outside.

Cahill had no surprise on his face: "Let's have a chat."

Jian Huai looked at Cahill in surprise.

Cahill waved his hand: "Let's talk with confidence, there are no cameras or paparazzi within a radius of [-] meters from my place, it's very safe."

Shen Xiangheng glanced at him: "You can disappear."

"Do you Chinese like to thank people like this?" Cahill raised his eyebrows in disbelief, and started to find fault.

Shen Xiangheng was wearing casual clothes, and there was a hint of sinisterness on his face, but the corner of his mouth was still hooked into a smile: "You Americans like to be light bulbs?"

"..."

Cahill is gone.

Standing at the door, Jian Huai looked at Shen Xiangheng, and was surprised to find that the other party was exactly like him, with thick dark circles under the eyes and an extremely haggard face.

Shen Xiangheng raised his eyelids and looked at him: "Surprised?"

Jian Huai nodded honestly.

"Accidentally, I'm here?" Shen Xiangheng leaned against the door frame and said slowly, "If I don't come again, Teacher Jian might return to China."

"..."

He will not.

Well, he did intend to do so.

Jian Huai cried all night, her eyes were swollen, she lowered her head slightly at this moment, like a little animal abandoned by its owner.

Shen Xiangheng himself came with a little anger, and at this moment his heart softened in a mess: "Is it packed?"

Jian Huai nodded.

"Get in the car." Shen Xiangheng said, "I'll take you to a place."

Shen's building.

Shen's building is located in a bustling commercial street. The glass exterior wall reflects light and stands quietly. Jian Huai was taken to Shen Xiangheng's temporary office.

"Jian Huai," Shen Xiangheng sat on the sofa, holding a stack of documents, "Let's talk."

Jian Huai looked at the stack of documents on the table and was slightly surprised.

Shen Xiangheng didn't let him see it first, but said: "Back then, I did know something about your parents."

Jian Huai remained silent.

"The reason why I didn't tell you at the time was because I didn't want you to live in hatred, and..." Shen Xiangheng said bluntly, "None of us has the ability to resist him."

"Stop talking." Jian Huai took a breath and said softly, "I understand."

Crouching on the sofa, Jian Huai was glad that he didn't stand up and talk, and also glad that he was wearing a hat when he went out, and now that he pushed down the brim of the hat, he could cover half of it for him.

Shen Xiangheng: "You don't understand."

Jian Huai looked up at him.

"If you really understood, you wouldn't refuse to answer the phone." Shen Xiangheng rubbed his eyebrows, "Jian Huai, you don't believe me."

Jian Huai was silent.

"Do you still remember the promise you made to me?" Shen Xiangheng said, "No matter what happens, it is a matter of the previous generation, and it cannot be involved in the relationship between the two of us."

Jian Huai was speechless, there were some truths, although he had understood them a long time ago, but after the incident happened, he couldn't make it as easy as he said.

Shen Xiangheng knew that he had indeed committed an old problem, so he handed all the materials to Jian Huai: "Look."

Jian Huai flipped through the documents page by page, a little surprised at the level of detail of these documents, which were full of deeds and evidences of Shen Zhen over the years, no matter black or white.

"Brother, how did you find so many?"

Shen Xiangheng leaned lazily on the sofa: "I've spent a lot of thought. I've been collecting them all these years. Shen Zhen is very careful. It's as hard as heaven to catch him. It took me a little time."

Looking at these materials, Jian Huai realized that it was indeed not a day's work. They were displayed in large and small sizes, and the timeline spanned several years.

Therefore, although Shen Xiangheng kept it from him, he never gave up working hard for him and collecting evidence for him, especially the other party was Shen Xiangheng's own father.

Jian Huai's breathing was a little unsteady, and his voice trembled slightly: "Brother..."

"Jian Huai." Shen Xiangheng sat up a little bit straighter, looking directly at him, "What did I tell you the day I took you away?"

Jian Huai was taken aback, and recalled:

"Can the two of us live well?"

"can."

"really?"

"Well." Shen Xiangheng said, "I will protect you forever, and no one can hurt you."

"I believe you."

The young man is usually silent, and the promise comes violently. Shen Xiangheng is trying his best to fulfill the promise, but it is a pity that the wind is too strong later, and many things dissipate too quickly.

Tears fell on the documents, Jian Huai hugged the documents, the pain in his heart couldn't be increased, but the more sad he became, the clearer his mind became: "Brother, but if something happens to Shen Zhen, the Shen family..."

Shen Xiangheng turned on the computer, and said, "Well, once something happens to Shen Zhen, Shen's stock will definitely be affected, and losses are inevitable."

Jian Huai said, "I just want him to be punished as he should be."

"Will do."

Shen Xiangheng checked with the other side: "We have a lot to do."

Just after the New Year's Eve, a shocking news came from the Shen family, their Second Young Master was bringing someone back, and it was the same one from seven years ago.

In this life, Shen Xiangheng brought people back just twice in total, one time was Jian Huai, and the other time was also the same.

"I heard that it is serious, this time it is to meet the rhythm of the parents."

"Jian Huai is really amazing."

"Shh, be quiet."

The people in the house had different thoughts, but no matter how they thought about it, at that point in time, the car still parked outside the yard on time.

Shen Xiangheng looked sideways at Jian Huai: "Are you still nervous?"

Jian Huai is dressed very formally today, with the top button buttoned up, no matter how she looks or how she dresses, she tries her best to be perfect: "It's okay..."

"What are you afraid of? It's not like I haven't seen it before." Shen Xiangheng pinched his face, "The things are packed for you, if there is any accident, just call me."

Jian Huai nodded.

The butler outside the car welcomed him in respectfully. When the two entered the main living room, they saw the person sitting on the sofa.

Shen Zhen sat in the middle, next to Jiang Yue with delicate makeup, Jian Huai met her eyes, Jiang Yue seemed to smile at him.

Shen Yuan sat on the side sofa and gave Jian Huai a meaningful look.

Shen Zhen had the ugliest face, he said in a deep voice, "Come with me."

The room was silent.

Shen Xiangheng stood at the door: "Did father say me?"

"Yes." Shen Zhen stood up, "Follow me to the study."

How could he not be angry, Shen Xiangheng brought Jian Huai back without saying hello, especially at such a sensitive time, what does this rebellious son want to do?
