DBSNTM-40 Because I Look Like Jiyang

---

When they arrived at the hospital, Yibo took a coat from behind and wrapped it around Zhan. Yibo carried him to the doctor.

Zhan noticed that the clothes Yibo wrapped around him were his own coat.

So, the reason why Yibo went to the banquet was to deliver my coat?

It was late at night and there weren’t many people in the hospital.

However, Yibo’s arrival with Zhan in his arms attracted the attention of many people.

Zhan was thin-skinned and whispered to Yibo, “Put me down. I can walk on my own.”

“OK.

Yibo replied straightforwardly. Zhan was somewhat puzzled.

Yibo placed him on the ground, let go of his hands, and looked at Zhan with his arms crossed. “Let’s go.”

Zhan’s feet were in severe pain with a single movement. He could not land on the ground at all.

Zhan thought he still could make it on his own.

Zhan bent his legs, held onto the wall and jumped on one foot to the consultation room.

At this moment, he was glad that his constitution was not bad.

Yibo’s face clouded over instantly. An old lady happened to pass by.

She glanced at Yibo and said to the people beside her,”Men nowadays are not considerate towards their boyfriends at all. The little boy’s feet are swollen so badly. It hurts me to watch this…”

Yibo’s expression darkened, but he corrected, “Not boyfriend, but wife.”

“Then it is more unacceptable. This kind of man! Divorce him as soon as possible!”

The old lady was in very good spirit and her voice was loud. Even Zhan, who had already jumped to the front, could hear her.

Zhan chuckled.

The lady smiled at Zhan and said, “Little boy, I have a grandson who works at Yuehua Media Company. He has a decent job and he is handsome. If you get divorced, consider my grandson!”

Zhan couldn’t laugh anymore.

Yibo stepped forward with a sullen face. “We won’t get divorced!”

His expression was too gloomy. The lady seemed to be frightened and did not dare to speak anymore. Instead, she looked at Zhan worriedly and turned around to leave.

Zhan smiled apologetically at the lady.

The lady was strange. Normally, the elder would advise a couple to stay together rather than get divorced.

“What are you looking at? Let’s go!” Yibo said impatiently.

***

Zhan saw that it was already two o’clock in the morning.

The winter in Beijing was very cold, and it was normal for the temperature to be less than ten degrees below zero at night.

This time, Zhan didn’t resist being carried by Yibo.

They went straight home.

When Yibo carried Zhan upstairs, Yijun appeared at the staircase entrance with a messy curly hair and narrowed his eyes.

When he saw that Yibo was carrying Zhan, he immediately opened his eyes wide, “Zhan! You’re back?”

“Why haven’t you slept yet?”

Yijun scratched his hair and said, “I wanna go to the bathroom…”

He squinted and was obviously very sleepy. It was clear that he hadn’t slept at all.

***

When the two of them returned to their room, Yibo went to the bathroom to fill the bathtub.

Zhan lay on the bed with a slight headache.

He went to a banquet and ended up causing so many troubles, which made him a little annoyed.

Not long after, Yibo came out and carried him, “The water is ready. You can take a bath.”

Zhan jumped into the bathroom, but Yibo did not go out.

Zhan turned his head and said impatiently, “Why are you still standing…?”

The last word was interrupted by Yibo’s sudden kiss.

Yibo’s arm was tightly wrapped around Zhan’s waist. He was very strong and kissed him heavily.

Zhan could only raise his head to accept his kiss.

Zhan was pressed against the wall. One side was an ice-cold wall, and the other a hot chest. This kind of feeling was not good at all.

However, Yibo did not give Zhan any chance to resist and directly ripped off his clothes.

Yibo was already very skilled in taking off Zhan’s clothes. And he could easily find Zhan’s sensitive spots.

Zhan did not want to do this with Yibo under such circumstance, but his body had already yielded. Yibo succeeded in the end.

When he did this, he was not gentle at all, just like his usual style of handling things, but he did not touch Zhan’s swollen and painful ankle as if he had paid special attention to it.

This bath took a long time. Because Yibo can’t stop with one round.

When Yibo carried him out with a towel, Zhan’s eyelids couldn’t even move. And he directly fell asleep.

***

The next morning.

When Zhan woke up, he heard the slightest movement in the room.

Although the person walking back and forth had deliberately lightened his footsteps, Zhan could still tell because the room was too quiet.

He opened his eyes and saw Yibo coming out of the cloakroom dressed in formal clothes.

As soon as Yibo came out, he looked at the bed, just in time to meet Zhan’s sleepy eyes.

Yibo paused for a moment before walking over, “You are awake?”

Zhan sneered, “Can’t you see with your eyes?”

After saying that, Zhan turned his back to face Yibo.

When I came back last night, I was unhappy, but Yibo still…

The more Zhan thought about it, the angrier he felt.

Yibo looked at the back of Zhan’s head with an unfathomable expression.

In the end, he said faintly, “I have something to do, but I will be back soon.”

Zhan replied calmly, “Okay.”

Yibo was not satisfied with Zhan’s calm attitude. He frowned slightly and clenched his palm slightly and suddenly unclenched. He abruptly stood up and pulled Zhan’s shoulder. He kissed Zhan randomly before feeling a little more comfortable.

“Yibo. Enough. Hurry off to do your business!” Zhan finally couldn’t help but shout out.

He sat up and shouted at Yibo.

Zhan had just woken up and his hair was in a mess. The bangs on his forehead were even more chaotic. His face was unmade and looked somewhat childish.

Yibo was not angry. Instead, he felt that Zhan was a little cute, and he smiled.

Zhan felt that Yibo looked like a psychopath.

Yibo was so shameless. Anyway, I couldn’t be more shameless than him.

I couldn’t stand up to him. But I could ignore him!

Zhan got out of bed and forgot that he had sprained his foot. He stepped on the ground and broke out in cold sweat on his forehead from the pain.

“Are you stupid?” Yibo knitted his eyebrows and came to help him.

“Doesn’t my husband know whether I am stupid?” Zhan retorted.

Although Zhan was a little stupid stepping on his injured foot, he could not be obediently scolded like this.

Yibo raised his eyebrows and did not say anything else. However, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he stood at the bathroom door and stared at Zhan. He was afraid that Zhan would step on that sprained foot again.

When Zhan went out, he saw Yibo throw a set of sportswear onto the bed.

“What?”

“Wear this.”

“It’s none of your business!” Zhan felt that this man was very verbose. Half an hour ago, he had said that he had something to do, but he still hadn’t left. He even went to get my clothes.

Yibo did not say anything. He only gave him a deep look, causing Zhan to feel a little frightened.

Thinking of this, Zhan felt that he had been quite presumptuous in front of Yibo this morning.

I was always against him, but he was not angry.

Could it be that because of what happened yesterday, he felt guilty, so he indulged me so much?

Just as Zhan was lost in thought, the door was suddenly opened.

Zhan raised his head and saw Yibo’s back disappear outside the door.

He finally left…

***

In the end, Zhan wore the sportswear that Yibo brought him.

The sportswear was loose, and it was winter style. It made him look corpulent. It wasn’t beautiful at all, but this was the only thing he could wear.

When he went downstairs, there was no one else.

However, a bodyguard quickly jumped out from nowhere and said, “Mrs. Wang, what do you want to eat?”

“Whatever.” Zhan was stunned for a moment.

This mysterious style was really similar to Yibo’s. Zhan sat at the dining table and called Ziyi while eating.

“You let me be taken away by Yibo just like that last night? What about the promise of being friends for the rest of our lives?”

“To be friends for the rest of my life, I need to guarantee my life first! Yibo is now my big boss. If I dare to disobey him, wouldn’t he be able to directly crush me to death?”

Ziyi might be his toxic friend.

They talked for a while before hanging up the phone.

There was a new message on WeChat.

Zhan opened it and found that someone had added him.

The head portrait was a picture of the sea, the nickname was very simple.

Zhan’s finger paused, and he hesitated.

He probably guessed who it was.

What happened last night made Zhan feel somewhat revolted against Haoxuan and Yibo.

After hesitating for a while, Zhan still added him as friend.

Immediately Haoxuan quickly sent him a message.

“Zhan, I am Haoxuan.”

Zhan did not immediately reply to him, so Haoxuan continued to send him messages.

“I’m sorry about what happened last night. That won’t happen again.”

“Are you and Yibo okay?”

He sent three messages in a row, but Zhan did not reply.

Zhan didn’t know how to reply.

After a while, Zhan texted, “Yes.”

Zhan understood why Yibo liked to use the word “yes” to answer questions. It was simple, convenient, and could avoid unnecessary embarrassment.

“That’s good.”

“I want to treat you and Yibo to dinner sometime.”

Zhan replied without hesitation, “Ask Yibo about this.”

Zhan stared at his phone in a daze.

“Zhan?”

Yijun’s voice came from behind.

“Have you had breakfast yet?” Zhan turned to look at him.

Yijun yawned and sat down opposite him, “Yes.”

He came down this morning to eat something, and then went back to sleep.

“You still haven’t answered my question yesterday.” Zhan suddenly spoke.

Yijun did not react for a moment.

“What’s the problem?”

Zhan said softly, “It’s about Jiyang.”

Yijun was the most suitable person to answer this question.

Yijun was stunned for a moment, and the expression on his little face changed. “He is our neighbor. He often comes to our house to play. He is very nice.”

Zhan had already guessed that Jiyang had a good relationship with them, so he wasn’t surprised when Yijun said this.

Zhan asked the question he wanted to know the most, “Does Yibo also know him?”

“Yes. My cousin also knows him. At that time, my cousin, my brother, and he were always together. They treated him well…”

After Yijun finished speaking, he realized that he seemed to have said something that he shouldn’t have said.

Yijun raised his head and carefully looked at Zhan’s face.

Seeing that Zhan’s expression was the same as usual, Yijun continued, “Jiyang is a photographer. Once, he went to take pictures of the snow and encountered an avalanche. The rescue team never found him…”

After saying that, Yijun’s voice softened.

Zhan was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say for a moment.

“When did that happen?” Zhan raised his head and asked him.

“Five years ago,” Yijun said.

“Your brother and him…”

Yijun pursed his lips and looked a little sad with the corners of his eyes hanging down, “He is my brother’s fiancée.”

Zhan opened his mouth and was momentarily dumbfounded.

Zhan looked at the message from Haoxuan and replied, “Alright, I’ll talk to Yibo.”

If he encountered an avalanche and the rescue team did not find him, he was most likely to lose his life. Because he was buried in the snow.

Zhan felt oppressed. The previous emotions were all gone.

A long time ago, Zhan had faintly sensed that Yibo seemed to dislike the contact between him and Haoxuan.

Maybe this was the reason.

Zhan asked Yijun, “Do I really look like him?”

Seeing that Zhan’s expression was normal, Yijun said truthfully, “I think so.”

Zhan became silent.

***

Before lunch, Yibo came back.

Lunch was prepared by the bodyguards. Zhan was now an injured person, so it was naturally impossible for him to cook.

Yibo did not eat much before putting down his chopsticks. Zhan did not eat much either, only Yijun had a good appetite.

Yijun went out after finishing his meal quickly.

Yibo and Zhan were still sitting face to face. Yibo suddenly said, “What do you want to say?”

Zhan raised his head in surprise. I didn’t even open my mouth, but he knew that I had something to say to him.

Yibo saw Zhan thoughts from his expression, “Your expression tells me that you have something to say to me and you have questions to ask me.”

Zhan touched his face. Was it that obvious?

Zhan cleared his throat, “Can I ask anything I want?”

Yibo raised his head slightly. When I went out this morning, this man wished he could bite me when he was talking to me. But now, his hesitation was even more suspicious.

Yibo curled his lips and looked at him. “Since you know that you can’t ask, then don’t ask.”

“You’re only allowed to investigate me, so I can’t ask you questions?” Zhan also smiled and stared at Yibo with his bright eyes. “You think I look like Jiyang, don’t you?”

Yibo’s expression became somewhat gloomy, “Did Yijun tell you that?”

“If it’s something I really want to know, I’ll know it anyway even if others don’t tell me!”

Hearing this, Yibo was sure that Yijun had told him about it. He narrowed his eyes and said, “He told you that you and Jiyang are very similar?”

Jiyang?

That was what he called him!

Yibo always called me “Zhan”. When he wanted me to attend a dinner party, he called me “dear wife”.

Zhan felt that he was ridiculous. He was jealous of a man who was most likely not in this world.

Zhan pursed his lips, keeping a straight face. And he didn’t say anything.

Yibo suddenly said, “I don’t think you look like each other?”

After saying this, he left.

***

When it came to Jiyang’s name, the relationship between Zhan and Yibo became more strained than before.

Staying with Yibo, Zhan felt uncomfortable over. At night, he carried a pillow and went to the room where he had stayed before.

Just as Zhan was lying down on the bed, Yibo came looking for him.

Yibo stood at the door and looked at Zhan expressionlessly with his arms crossed. “Zhan, aren’t you going to sleep with me?”

Yibo’s straight face made Zhan feel a little scared.

Zhan hesitated for a moment and found an excuse. “I have an injury to my foot. I’m afraid you won’t notice my foot at night?”

Hearing this, Yibo looked at him with just a suggestion of snigger. “You fainted in the bathroom because you are so tired last night. I didn’t even touch your feet. Can I touch you when we sleep?”

Zhan blushed as he opened his lips, but he could not find anything to say.

Zhan threw the little pillow beside him towards Yibo. “Get out!”

Yibo dodged lightly and said softly, “Stop messing around. Go back to our room and sleep.”

He was clearly the one who had been frowned at me all day. Although he usually kept a straight face, today he was different. He spoke less, his expression was colder, and he occasionally slipped his mind.

When he came back, he was fine. Ever since I mentioned Jiyang, something was wrong with him.

Did he think I really couldn’t tell?

He could investigate everything that had happened to me since childhood. But I had only asked him about his cousin’s fiancée, and he acted so abnormal.

He was so abnormal because of another man. Couldn’t I express my dissatisfaction and unhappiness?

Did he think this was nonsense?

Everything he did was right, and it was nonsense for me to express my dissatisfaction?

Screw it! Shit!

The more Zhan thought about it, the angrier he became. He said, “I won’t go back.”

And what happened at the banquet that day was also the knot in Zhan’s heart.

“That night at the banquet, Haoxuan only held my hand. Why did you react so badly? What are you suspecting? What are you angry about? Go fight with him to vent your anger! Stop messing around here!”

The more Zhan thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved and unwilling to accept it. And he seemed to be somewhat aggressive.

Very few people and things could affect Yibo’s emotions, and his inexplicable reactions were all related to Jiyang.

“Because you thought that I took after him, didn’t you? And Haoxuan also thought that I looked alike to Jiyang. That’s why he held onto my hand while drinking. That’s why you were angry!”

“Yibo, ask yourself! Are you angry that Haoxuan touched my hand, or angry that Haoxuan touched Jiyang’s hand?”

“You said that you didn’t think I looked like Jiyang. It’s simply a lie. You lied to me!”

After Zhan finished speaking in one breath, he was somewhat excited and was panting.

Yibo stood at the door. His face clouded over. After a while, he said, “Do you think so?”

“It doesn’t matter what I think. The key is what you think!” Zhan laughed bitterly, “At first, when I married you, although you disliked me, you would occasionally flirt with me. It was because I looked like him, right?”

Yibo’s face revealed a trace of panic. “Zhan, don’t talk nonsense!”

Zhan sneered, “You don’t want to answer, because you know it clear that you approached me as we looked like.”

Yijun told me that Jiyang’s last name was Song.

Yibo treated me well and he was special to me. It was not because I am Zhan, but because I looked like a man named Jiyang. All this time, he was looking at another man through me.

His kindness towards me was because he missed another man.

I had never owned anything. All those belonged to Jiyang.

Even though I still hoped Yibo deny it.

I hoped I could hear the word “no” from him.

However, Yibo did not say it.

Yibo turned around and slammed the door. He was in panic.

Zhan leaned against the headboard and stared at the ceiling.

He raised his head to avoid tears falling down his cheeks.
