[103. Substitution]

The next day, the sky in Jinghai finally cleared up, and the sun appeared after a long time.

Cheng Qingxing's work this morning starts at nine o'clock, so he has to get up early.

So he walked out of the room at seven in the morning, mainly for the purpose of getting up in the morning and having a good meal.

When I came out of the room, I looked up and saw Zheng Xuhe coming out of another room.

The two looked at each other, then left the room one after the other, one into the bathroom and the other into the kitchen.

This was the same as when they lived together after they got married, one in front and one behind, not talking, just busy with their own things.

Nanny Wang was frightened when she saw Cheng Qingxing coming out.

But he soon realized that this was the person his young master brought back, and he immediately smiled with relief.

"Are you Master Zheng's friend?" Nanny Wang asked gently, "What would you like for breakfast?"

It turned out that someone had arranged breakfast. Didn't he get up so early in vain?

"Let's have some simple rice noodles." After saying this, Cheng Qingxing sat at the table waiting for Zheng Xuhe to come out.

We had already talked about going in and out together yesterday, and he felt it was still too ostentatious, so in the end we decided not to go in and out together too ostentatiously.

During this week, Cheng Qingxing pretended to be his tenant, and when he was at work, he just worked as a taxi driver.

The two of them were too quiet when they were having breakfast, and Nanny Wang at the side couldn't stand it anymore and felt suffocated.

But she didn't dare say anything more and could only watch secretly from the side.

Cheng Qingxing always eats faster than Zheng Xuhe. Maybe he has a stronger desire for food, so he always eats faster than Zheng Xuhe.

Because the atmosphere was so quiet, he spoke first: "How is the hot search issue being resolved?"

Zheng Xuhe raised his head slightly and looked at him, thinking for a moment, "It's been solved. Didn't Sister Li call you?"

"Sister Li called me, but I didn't answer." Cheng Qingxing said in a relaxed tone, "I know you can handle it, so I didn't bother to answer her call."

"You trust me too much." Zheng Xuhe said slowly, putting down his chopsticks, "Let's go, we have to go to work."

Cheng Qingxing nodded. As soon as he stood up, he felt dizzy and his body was a little unstable. When he was about to faint, Zheng Xuhe held him with his hand.

Zheng Xuhe's movements were gentle and powerful. When he pulled him up, he put his arms around his waist.

The two people looked at each other, and the next second Zheng Xuhe closed the distance between them and kissed him on the lips.

The kiss was neither light nor heavy and lasted only a few seconds.

When letting go, Cheng Qingxing savored it for a while. The pheromones with the smell of red wine made his dizziness feel much better.

Cheng Qingxing was about to ask him the reason, but Zheng Xuhe held his neck, walked behind him, and bit the back of his neck.

"Hiss—" He took a breath, the pain making him a little uncomfortable, "What are you doing?"

Zheng Xuhe released his lips, then pulled him outside, "Deepen the temporary mark to prevent you from fainting."

Cheng Qingxing said nothing. He touched the mark on the back of his neck and felt a little pain, but he subconsciously replied, "Thank you."

Zheng Xuhe was obviously stunned for a moment, a casual smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he responded in a low voice: "You're welcome."

--

When the two were in the car, Zheng Xuhe was driving and Cheng Qingxing was sitting in the passenger seat.

The car was eerily quiet. If Cheng Qingxing didn't take the initiative to speak, their relationship would remain deadlocked.

Cheng Qingxing looked out the car window and didn't speak.

If it were someone else, he might find some topic to ease the awkwardness.

But if it was Zheng Xuhe, there was actually no need for that. They both understood each other so well that they wouldn't feel awkward even if they didn't talk.

"How is it on the set? Are you adapting?"

When Zheng Xuhe was speaking, Cheng Qingxing thought there was something wrong with his ears.

Will he take the initiative to talk to me?

Cheng Qingxing looked at him, but Zheng Xuhe didn't look him in the eye. He was driving seriously.

"It's OK. Most of the teachers are very nice to me." Cheng Qingxing replied in a low voice, "Basically there is no problem. They are all excellent actors."

"Bai Hengxi too?" Zheng Xuhe asked him back.

Cheng Qingxing didn't answer for a moment. Zheng Xuhe was really good at chatting and could find the problem instantly.

"Of course he's a good actor. He's the leading actor."

Zheng Xuhe glanced at him, then muttered quietly: "You are still too good at keeping things in balance."

Cheng Qingxing lazily leaned back in his chair and stretched his neck. "Then I can't say a few bad things about Bai Shao, right?"

"After all, he invested in this drama, so it is most correct for him to be the male lead. Whether he has acting skills and is easy to get along with is another matter."

Zheng Xuhe responded. They all knew that in the entertainment industry, whether one has acting skills or not is not important. What is important is whether one has resources and a background.

Jinghai Film and Television City.

Cheng Qingxing had just stepped into the crew of "Five Nights of Strange Stories" when he heard Bai Hengxi calling his name.

He looked at Bai Hengxi, who had a gloomy face, and smiled awkwardly, then replied, "Mr. Bai, you came early today."

Bai Hengxi sneered and stood next to Qin Shaojie. The two of them went in and out together, looking more like a scandalous couple than him and Zheng Xuhe.

"If you didn't come earlier, I wouldn't be able to take a photo of you two." Bai Hengxi threw a Polaroid photo in front of him.

Cheng Qingxing subconsciously dodged, and the photo fell to the ground. He picked it up immediately.

The photo was of him and Zheng Xuhe getting off the car.

There didn't seem to be anything ambiguous between them in the photo; he looked like one of those friends who just hitched a ride.

"Do you remember what you said to me?" Bai Hengxi asked him with a gloomy face, "Do you have to make things so ugly?"

"It's not a fuss. He and I were just having a normal chat. It's not what you think." Cheng Qingxing said calmly and stuffed the photo into his pocket.

He didn't want to have any direct conflict with Bai Hengxi. After all, he was the leading actor in this play, and he hoped that this play could make him popular again.

Qin Shaojie couldn't help but laugh, and walked slowly to him, "You've been photographed, are you still going to be stubborn?"

Cheng Qingxing looked at Qin Shaojie, then at Bai Hengxi, and then smiled helplessly, "Master Bai, it's useless if you insist on scolding me."

"So you don't want to act anymore, right?"

There was silence for a moment. Cheng Qingxing's face suddenly darkened and he could no longer smile. He just looked at him quietly.

"Does Bai Shao want to change people?" Qin Shaojie asked in agreement, and then walked to his side, "Who do you want to change?"

Bai Hengxi: "Anyone will do, as long as it's not Cheng Qingxing."
