The acid went to Yi Heng’s head in an instant.

He suddenly recalled every little bit of his relationship with his parents, and then his mood became even worse.

If only he wasn’t “Yi Heng”…

At the same time, his eyes turned to Tang Li’s quiet sleeping face. At that moment, he had such a strong desire to switch places with Tang Li.

In fact, as early as the death of Tang Li’s parents, Yi Heng knew of the existence that was “Tang Li”.

At that time, he had some sympathy for Tang Li, thinking that he had found someone similar to himself.

Unexpectedly…

Yi Heng raised his mouth with self-mockery.

It was he who deluded himself. Tang Li and he were not in the same class at all. At least Tang Li had better luck than him.

Yi Heng slowly retrieved his wandering eyes from Tang Li’s face, meditated for a while, and then looked at Shen Yu.

From his point of view, he could see the side of Shen Yu’s face clearly. Shen Yu is beautiful, warm and pure. His temperament is like a polished and round jade, which makes people want to approach.

Even after he fell asleep, Shen Yu’s face was tranquil, his eyebrows relaxed, and his lips slightly hooked up.

Completely different from his violent mother and cowardly father.

Strangely enough, Yi Heng somewhat remembered that Shen Yu was not so approachable before. He followed his father and stepmother to many social dinners attended by Shen Yu. The Shen Yu at those times was so fierce that he could scold his assistant and make him cry with three words.

It’s strange.

It only took a year or two to see a person’s character change so dramatically.

Yi Heng was completely absorbed in his thoughts when he suddenly felt his arm get hit hard.

Turning his head, he looked up at a pair of dark eyes.

Tang Li, who had been sleeping soundly, had woken up at some point. His whole body huddled in the blanket. His hair was somewhat messy, and he was watching Yi Heng with his beautiful phoenix eyes.

Yi Heng quickly turned his gaze away, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

Before long, Tang Li bumped his elbow into his arm again and said in a low voice, “What were you looking at just now?”

Yi Heng took back his arm from the armrest of the chair and was too lazy to open his eyes. “Nothing,” he said coldly.

“I’m warning you now–” Tang Li’s voice was sharp, almost like it was stabbing into Yi Heng’s ears, “Don’t have any thoughts about him.”

Yi Heng sneered and was forced to open his eyes.

The next second, he saw that Tang Li’s face was only a short distance away from him. The two of them were so close that if Tang Li blinked his eyes, the thick long eyelashes could almost sweep across Yi Heng face.

Although Tang Li kept his expression blank, Yi Heng could sense nervousness and fear rolling of the younger boy.

Suddenly, Yi Heng seemed to understand something, he raised one eyebrow and showed a smiling expression: “You can rest assured, my parents are not dead, and I was not left to such kind relatives as you. Even if your brother Shen Yu wants to take me in, he has no reason to.”

In the face of Yi Heng’s verbal provocation, Tang Li did not become as angry as Yi Heng had expected, but instead stared at him blankly.

Yi Heng did not evade his gaze and looked at Tang Li with a smile on his face.
