When Xing Chi went downstairs, he was groggy.

Ji Lan told him that he looked very much like a person, a person who Lu Zhirui liked for many years when he was young, but couldn't ask for it.

That person was Zong Lu's classmate in high school and the young master of Xie's family in Hong Kong City.Mr. Lu chased him for three years when he was in middle school, but he broke his heart and left Hong Kong City to go abroad.

At that time, Xing Chi was sent to Lu Zhirui's bed for this reason, and he stayed by Lu Zhirui's side from that day on.

And before that, Lu Zhirui was such a clean and self-sufficient person, and there was only one reason why he suddenly made an exception for Xingchi.

At that time, Ji Lan breathed a sigh of relief after saying this.

"Mr. Xing, I'm telling you this to tell you that you have enough capital to stay with Mr. Lu." She said. "Also, there are some things you can only protect yourself better if you know."

At this point, Ji Lan paused, then continued.

"However, after so long, maybe Mr. Lu still treats you a little differently." She said.

Xing Chi listened quietly and shook his head slowly.

What could be different.

-

When Xing Chi got into the car, Yue Ying was frightened by his distraught appearance.

"What's wrong?" Yue Ying anxiously took out her mobile phone while asking, and was about to call Ji Lan.

Xing Chi said, "Don't hit me, sister Yue."

Yue Ying had no choice but to stop the movements in her hands.

"Boss Lu killed you?" Yue Ying asked carefully.

Xing Chi sat on the back of the seat, turned his head and looked out the window, expressionless.

"I want to break up with Mr. Lu." He whispered.

Yue Ying's eyes widened.

"What did you say?"

"I said, I'm going to break up with Mr. Lu." Xing Chi looked at her quietly.

Yue Ying was terrified: "Don't be angry, Mr. Lu is angry with you, what did he say? Tell me, don't worry..."

"I want to break up with him." Xing Chi just repeated.

Yue Ying looked at Xing Chi, and saw that as he said this, tears were already falling from his eyes.

Those clear eyes were blurred by tears.

-

On this day, Yue Ying persuaded Xing Chi for a long time before he calmed down a little.

Yue Ying also knew the reason.

She was silent for a long time, and lightly rubbed on Xing Chi's shoulder.

"I know what you're thinking," she said.

Xing Chi sat quietly on the sofa, holding the hot milk that Yue Ying stuffed him with both hands.Holding the cup for too long, his palms were covered with warmth, but the milk in the cup was almost completely cold.

He never thought that one day, he would be able to stand by someone's side and become another person's substitute.

Therefore, he was never special, but the person he temporarily replaced was special.He was beside Lu Zhirui, in front of that person's shadow, all of Lu Zhirui's joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys were only given to another person through him.

So, his petty temper before, and his heart towards Lu Zhirui, are actually not important.

It is enough for a shadow to play his own role well.

Xing Chi doesn't want to continue being this shadow anymore.

"Then go talk to Sister Ji Lan tomorrow." He said. "In the future, I won't go to Mr. Lu's place."

Self-esteem and feelings, at least one must be preserved.

"His house and all the money I earned during these times will be returned to him. I don't want any of the things he gave me. I will leave by myself, and I won't take anything from him," he continued.

Yue Ying heard his words, but did not respond to him immediately.

She paused, and continued slowly: "But, do you still remember why you were sent to Mr. Lu's side at that time?"

Xing Chi didn't make a sound.

He knew, a lover who was sent to Lu Zhirui's bed.Lovers should not have so many demands on their employers, they should be tempted, and they are not allowed to use themselves as substitutes and meal replacements.

It's just that he is a little more hypocritical.

"Boss Wang wants to rely on you to get close to Lu Zhirui, and after he succeeds, he wants to rely on you to make more money." Yue Ying said. "Do you know how many notices are sent to you every month. Such good resources are not created out of thin air. If there is no you, who would they be in, do you understand?"

Of course Xing Chi understands.

There are so many artists in the circle, and there are not enough good resources.If he gets more, others will naturally get less.

He didn't make a sound.

"You know it too, right?" Yue Ying said. "Xing Chi, during this period of time, you have earned money and fame. Of course, there are many people who are jealous of you and hate you. Do you know how many black drafts you have every day? It is still when Mr. Lu is behind you, how dare they They are behind the scenes, but they dare not really touch you. But what if there is no President Lu?"

Speaking of this, Yue Ying reached out and took the milk in his hand.

"If you want to be an ordinary person, you have no chance," she said.

Xing Chi looked at her.

"Boss Lu pushed you to this position. With his protection, you can stand. But without his protection, you will only fall down, ruin your reputation, and even have no chance to survive in this society." Yue Ying said.

Xing Chi did not speak.

"You are already the target of public criticism. Even if it's not for yourself, think about the people around you and your grandfather. For these people, you have to live well and don't push yourself to a dead end."

At this moment, Yue Ying's cell phone rang.

She picked it up, and Ji Lan's voice rang on the other end of the phone.

"Ms. Yue, is Mr. Xing free tonight?" Ji Lan asked. "Mr. Lu has reserved a seat, please Mr. Xing to eat French food."

Yue Ying looked at Xing Chi.

He sat alone on the sofa, and the light shone down, making his figure a little thin.He was expressionless and said nothing, staring at the milk on the table with red eyes.

He needs to rest, to think, to calm down.

Yue Ying paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Ah, what a coincidence. Xing Chi is shooting the cover right now. I've been busy all afternoon, and I don't know what time it will be..."

Xing Chi interrupted her at this moment.

"Sister Yue." He said. "I go."

Yue Ying looked at him in surprise, and saw Xing Chi raised his head, his eyes were red, his eyes were bright, they were clearly under the light, but they were dark.

"I'll go," he said.

-

Xing Chi understood what Yue Ying said to persuade him.

Everything he got now was thanks to Lu Zhirui, and all those backlashes were also given to him by Lu Zhirui.

Cuscuta has a choice only before it is placed on a big tree.Once it is wrapped around the thick trunk, its support and its life are all given by the big tree, and if it wants to leave, there will only be a dead end.

How could he die.

The staff around him all depended on him to receive their wages. His grandfather was in a nursing home and had to pay [-] a month for recuperation.Even the rural primary school that he regularly donates to, the principal will call him regularly to tell him what the children are lacking during this time.

Compared with these, his self-esteem is nothing.

Xing Chi wiped away his tears, and asked Yue Ying to find someone to put on makeup for him, to cover up the tiredness on his face, and to make his eyes bright.

He rushed to the French restaurant.

Unexpectedly, Lu Zhirui arrived earlier than him today.When he arrived at the restaurant, the place had already been cleared. In the huge restaurant, only Lu Zhirui was sitting there quietly, with one hand resting on his face, flipping through the menu boredly.

Seeing him coming, Lu Zhirui raised his head, his gaze fell on his face lightly: "Come?"

When he met those eyes, Xing Chi's heart began to ache, and he was so uncomfortable that he could hardly laugh.

It turned out to be his illusion.Those smiles, accommodating, and the fireworks in the eyes were not directed at him.

It is indeed a very touching thing for a person to have such a long-lasting affection and have unrequited love for another person for so many years.But it is a pity that in this touching story, he is fortunate to be only a regretful ending, one of which is a substitute for consolation.

It took him so long to realize that he had been living in the shadow of another person.

The corners of his mouth were heavy, and he could hardly lift it up, but at the moment when Lu Zhirui's eyes looked over, he tried his best to put on the most nonchalant smile.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, I finished work a little late, so I asked you to wait for me."

Lu Zhirui also heard from Ji Lan that Xing Chi went to shoot a magazine in the afternoon.Seeing the faint exhaustion on Xing Chi's face, Lu Zhirui graciously ignored him, and pointed to the opposite position: "It's okay."

Xing Chi sat down there.

Lu Zhirui raised his hand to summon the waiter, and ordered food for the two of them in fluent French.

Xing Chi couldn't understand, so he sat there by himself and took a few deep breaths while Lu Zhirui was ordering.

After a while, Lu Zhirui put down the menu, and saw Xing Chi across the table, and smiled at him a little embarrassedly.

"Mr. Lu, have you eaten the biscuits in the afternoon?" Xing Chi asked.

Lu Zhirui hummed lightly.

"I saw you were busy, so I didn't bother you..." Xing Chi said. "Some time ago, I was in a bad mood, and I made you unhappy. I wanted to give you a biscuit to apologize."

Speaking of this, Xing Chi paused, swallowed hard, and smiled nonchalantly.

"Since you ate my biscuit, then forgive me, okay?"

A soft and tired voice caressed Lu Zhirui's ears.

For some reason, Lu Zhirui always felt that something was wrong.

Xing Chi seemed to be as obedient as before, which shows that his beating had an effect.However, this kind of cuteness was not quite right, and Lu Zhirui couldn't tell what was wrong specifically.

It seems that there is an empty space somewhere, and the air leaks through the floor, which makes the warmth in the softness dissipate a lot.

However, he has never been a person who would struggle with those "feelings" that catch wind and shadows.

He knew that this kind of cuteness was what he wanted.Gentle and gentle, a pair of bright eyes looked at him quietly, all eyes were on him.

that's enough.

After only a moment's pause, Lu Zhirui raised the corners of his mouth in satisfaction.

"Yeah." His voice was deep and cold, but it was actually completely contented and happy.
