20. Chapter 20

There was really nothing that could be done on the day of the Spring Festival. Cheng Shangen finally got up from a nap and it was already past noon. He wasn't very hungry so he went straight to the computer to play games.

She sent a message to Kim Heechul but he couldn't play with her because they seemed to be busy worshiping their ancestors on New Year's Day.

Cheng Shangen could only play a few games by herself out of boredom and then turned on the TV to rewatch "Tangled", her favorite Disney cartoon.

I took a photo and posted it on Instagram: I wish everyone a happy Chinese New Year with Rapunzel~

The comments were quick too.

[Happy New Year, Sean! It must be fun during the Chinese New Year!]

[Happy Chinese New Year, Sean! ! ! 】

[I like Rapunzel, too. 】

Cheng Shangen was bored and scrolled for a while, but he was really bored. He finally got his vacation time but it coincided with the holidays and he ended up being alone with no one to play with.

After watching TV, it was already dark. The Spring Festival was about to pass. Cheng Shangen got up and prepared to make something to eat for himself. At the right time, his cell phone flashed.

Are you at home now? 】Message from Quan Zhilong.

【Inside. 】Cheng Shangen replied.

[I'm on the 17th floor now. Mom forgot to give you the red envelope yesterday, so she asked me to deliver it to you. Is it convenient for you to open the door? 】Power to the dragon.

Cheng Shangen replied again, "Inside." 】

After I replied, I kicked off my slippers, opened the door and looked around. There was no one there. Then I realized that it was the 17th floor! ! ! She lives on the 20th floor! ! !

Thinking that the other party was still waiting for the red envelope, Cheng Shangen quickly put on a coat and poured the fruit plate on the coffee table into his two big pockets without even having time to change his slippers.

Only after going down the stairs to the 17th floor did Cheng Shangen realize that he had been a little reckless. How could he explain this?

Quan Zhilong was standing not far from the elevator entrance, looking down at his phone.

"Cough..." Cheng Shangen coughed lightly to attract attention.

Quan Zhilong looked at her and said "Oh?"

"I didn't even hear the door open." Quan Zhilong looked at her with a smile. Her little face was clean and tender without any makeup. His eyes moved down and saw that she was wearing a big coat with pockets bulging with treasures.

Cheng Shangen smiled awkwardly: "My voice is relatively quiet."

Quan Zhilong didn't think much about it and took out a red packaging bag from his backpack and handed it to her: "Here, our red envelopes are all packed in white bags. Noona told me about your custom, so Ouma specially changed it to red and gave it to you now."

Cheng Shangen was deeply touched when he received the red envelope. During the two most important days of the Chinese New Year, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, all the touching things were given by Quan Zhilong's family.

"Thank you. Thank you so much, Quan Zhilongxi and your family. If it weren't for you, I would have had a bad Spring Festival." Cheng Shangen's eyes were filled with tears for a moment.

Quan Zhilong chuckled and closed the distance between him and her. He stretched out his big hand to rub her head, but Cheng Shangen suddenly raised his head: "Quan Zhilongxi, stretch out your hand, I have something for you too."

Quan Zhilong watched her reach into her pocket. He stretched out his hand obediently and suddenly looked forward to what treasure she would take out.

"Two hands." Cheng Shangen winked to indicate that one hand was not enough.

Quan Zhilong obediently stretched out his other hand and put them together.

Cheng Shangen took the snacks in his pocket

She took them all out and put them in Quan Zhilong's palm. Her hands were small, so the melon seeds fell out from the gap between her fingers.

Quan Zhilong stared at the things she put into her hands with wide eyes. After she finished emptying one pocket, she opened another.

Cheng Shangen took out some and introduced them: "Pearl seeds, peanuts, old Beijing crispy candies, and tangerines. These are specially brought to me by Sister Jin. In China, these are a must for the Spring Festival."

Seeing that she was still trying to take it out, Quan Zhilong smiled helplessly: "Sean, I can't hold it anymore."

Cheng Shangen looked at his backpack and the meaning was obvious: she had emptied her fruit plate.

Looking at the pile of things in his hands helplessly, Quan Zhilong smiled and said, "Alasou, here, put them in."

Quan Zhilong was carrying a backpack. Cheng Shangen walked behind him and unzipped the backpack. Looking at the neatly arranged items inside, he felt embarrassed to put the melon seeds and other things in it.

"Let's go, Quan Zhilongxi, I'll take you home and give you the rest when we get to your door." Cheng Shangen zipped up his pants again.

Quan Zhilong couldn't help but look up and laugh, ah, how could he say something like sending him home.

In the end, Quan Zhilong carefully went upstairs one floor at a time, holding a hand full of snacks, and Cheng Shangen followed behind him.

Quan Zhilong breathed a sigh of relief after transporting all the snacks home safely without spilling any. After he breathed a sigh of relief, he felt speechless. They were just melon seeds. What would happen if one or two fell off? But thinking of how Cheng Shangen treated these snacks as if they were treasures, he also began to treat these snacks with preciousness.

"Are you really not going to come in and sit for a while?" Quan Zhilong returned to the door and looked at Cheng Shangen who was standing there.

Cheng Shangen shook his head decisively and just wanted to quickly give him the snacks in his other pocket.

Even though they were at home, Quan Zhilong still took it with his hand. When she put the snacks down and closed her hand, her round fingertips would inevitably scratch his palm, lightly but tinglingly. He wanted to reach out and hold it tightly, but also wanted to stretch his palm.

Quan Zhilong liked this feeling very much, as it made him want to get the woman in front of him quickly.

"Ancient cat." Quan Zhilong leaned against the door frame and looked down at her and smiled.

Cheng Shangen also smiled slightly: "Mine are too small, they can't compare with Quan Zhilongxi's at all."

"But I like you very much, I like Sean..." Quan Zhilong looked at his palm for a while before looking at her and smiling: "That's the feeling it gives me."

Cheng Shangen listened to his heavy breathing and then smiled: "Well, you must eat the tangerines, they have a strong New Year flavor~ and I only shared them with Quan Zhilongxi!" He felt a little proud after saying that.

Kwon Ji-yong managed to control his expression with great difficulty. It was a good feeling to be alone.

"If it's not enough for you, come to me again." Cheng Shangen put his hands in his pockets: "Oh, by the way, I don't live on the 17th floor, I live on the 20th floor."

Quan Zhilong said "Hmm?" to express his confusion.

"I'm a little afraid of the small and enclosed space like an elevator. I didn't tell anyone at the time because I didn't want to cause too much trouble." Cheng Shangen gave a simple explanation.

"Wait a moment." Quan Zhilong said, then turned around and quickly appeared empty-handed.

"Let's go. I'll take you home this time." Quan Zhilong lowered his chin slightly.

A raise.

Cheng Shangen was a little stunned and then laughed: "Ani, no need, there are only two floors. I can just climb the stairs."

She really wanted to laugh, and she felt warm inside. To be honest, many people have said that her problem is exaggerated. Others don't understand why she has such a fear. They don't understand, so they are just pretending.

"Sean, don't reject Oppa's request as a man." Quan Zhilong's voice was low but not hoarse. Instead, it sounded like a love word: "Oppa wants to send you home."

Cheng Shangen couldn't help but look up at him. He was not wearing any makeup today, but his dark brown eyes were still bright, staring at her intently.

Cheng Shangen turned his face away slightly: "No need, we are just playing house this way. Quan Zhilongxi, you should have a good rest at home. I will go upstairs first. We will start work tomorrow. Good night~"

After saying this, she didn't expect any response from Quan Zhilong. She bowed slightly and went to the stairwell.

When she went upstairs, she found that Quan Zhilong had sent her a message.

[kkk, good night, Sean.] 】

Cheng Shangen was curled up on the sofa looking at this "kkk" and suddenly felt upset. Tsk, it's a bit annoying.

Fortunately, work started the next day, and Cheng Shangen didn't have time to think about the content that bothered her. The drama was almost finished at the end of February, and it would be disadvantageous if it was delayed any longer.

Because of the role of Yu Ye, Cheng Shangen received many script invitations, both as the leading role and as a supporting role.

Cheng Shangen flipped through the pages and thought that taking on some female lead roles and choosing a good partner to act in traditional Korean dramas would undoubtedly be the most popular option. This was also the best approach according to what she and Jin Qiaodong had agreed upon.

But there just happened to be a script that caught her eye so much that she was invited to play a vicious female supporting role. But she was not vicious in the traditional sense. Her performance was true to her nature, making those who hated her hate her to death, and those who loved her love her to death.

This is quite difficult. After all, if you don't perform well, you will end up as a black lotus and scheming bitch.

Jin Qiaodong saw through her thoughts and understood her hesitation, but in the end he had no choice but to say, "Okay, okay, let's act, act, act!!! Otherwise you'll get scolded for not acting well because you picked someone you don't like."

Cheng Shangen smiled brightly: "Thank you, Sister Jin~ I will definitely work hard on the filming~!"

Jin Qiaodong held his forehead helplessly: "Don't set flags for me, just perform well in this variety show. If you don't play a few leading roles, then you can attract more fans for me when you are on variety shows!"

Cheng Shangen agreed very well: "Of course~ I will try my best to make it funny~"

Jin Qiaodong vomited blood: "Don't try to make me laugh, this variety show is not a comedy!"

“…”

"What variety show is it, Sister Jin?" Cheng Shangen asked cautiously.

"Thank you! Thank you!" Jin Qiaodong was really speechless.

Cheng Shangen blinked: "Not really... I haven't taken the photo yet..."

Jin Qiaodong went berserk: "The name of the show is thankyou ah thankyou! I thank you your head!!!"

"It will be filmed in early March on Jeju Island, so you should prepare in advance. Everyone on this show has some stories since their debut. It's called a trip, but you have to tell something with depth," said Jin Qiaodong.

"But I've been doing very well since my debut in Japan and South Korea... Where can I find stories for them?" Cheng Shangen spoke bluntly again.

Jin Qiaodong was so stunned that he had nothing to say. This was indeed going smoothly for him.

Jin Qiaodong ignored her: "I will sort out the information of other guests for you in a few days, and you can introduce them to me."

Cheng Shangen nodded randomly: "Okay, I will definitely think clearly about what I can say to comfort them."
