"Yeah." Chu Cheng walked over and asked Wang Fang, "Auntie, are you feeling better recently? The two doctors and I said before, your condition seems to have improved a lot."

"Yes, I am feeling better now. I am still with Zhou. Maybe I will be able to be discharged from the hospital during the Chinese New Year."

"That would be the best." Chu Cheng said, "You will get better. Modern medicine is so advanced, there is nothing that cannot be cured. Maybe you won't even have to wait until the New Year. You can be discharged from the hospital this winter."

Wang Fang smiled softly, "Why are you talking like that? You are such a nice kid."

"I'm just telling the truth."

Wang Fang looked at him with eyes full of love. Chu Cheng was a very special person to her. When Ji Qingzhou was out filming and couldn't accompany her, Chu Cheng would always take time to see him, sometimes staying for half a day, sometimes just for a while, but he would always come, usually once a week.

Wang Fang felt very embarrassed, so she advised him not to bother with it, but Chu Cheng insisted, "Qingzhou is not here, so I will come to see you on his behalf, so that he will feel more at ease when he is filming outside."

As soon as he brought up Ji Qingzhou, Wang Fang had no choice but to compromise. Sometimes they would talk about Chu Cheng and his current Ji Qingzhou, and Wang Fang would talk about his Ji Qingzhou days. Chu Cheng listened and felt very strange, feeling that what she did was not like what Ji Qingzhou would do, so Wang Fang smiled and said, "Boys change a lot when they grow up, they will definitely be different when they grow up."

There are indeed too many differences, Chu Cheng thought, he still prefers the current Ji Qingzhou.

He and Wang Fang had been together like this for a year. In Wang Fang's eyes, he had become the child she cared about and loved the most besides Ji Qingzhou. She thought Chu Cheng was good in everything and could tell that Chu Cheng should have a very good family environment. Therefore, she once sighed, "You have such good conditions, but you don't have a girlfriend. No wonder Zhou doesn't have one either."

Seeing Chu Cheng this time, he couldn't help but say, "You are so talkative and sweet, but you don't have a girlfriend. This is outrageous."

Chu Cheng heard this, and he rarely said "I'm not in a hurry" like before. He looked at Wang Fang and was a little speechless for a moment. He remembered Qin Xue's question to him, "Do you like Ji Qingzhou?" Chu Cheng couldn't help but change the subject.

Wang Fang also felt that it was not good to chat with him alone, so she chatted with Ji Qingzhou and Ying Nian. Chu Cheng unconsciously looked up at Ji Qingzhou and saw that he was smiling and talking to Wang Fang about Ying Nian's many sweeping robots at home, which were given by the brand and were free, so she didn't need to mind.

Ying Nian also agreed, "Really, I'm not lying to your aunt."

Chu Cheng looked at it and suddenly felt a little depressed. He subconsciously moved his gaze downwards and saw the familiar jade pendant on Ji Qingzhou's neck. He looked at it quietly, and his originally depressed mood eased a little at this moment, like clouds rolling and unrolling, and even with a hint of dawn.

Ji Qingzhou and Ying Nian were still chatting with Wang Fang. Since they had been in the crew together for more than three months and had been neighbors recently and spent a lot of time together, they had developed a certain tacit understanding and their conversations were in unison, making Wang Fang laugh non-stop.

As Chu Cheng listened, the clouds in his heart rolled up again, expanding in his heart like a virus. It was going to rain, Chu Cheng thought, the air here was too stuffy.

Ji Qingzhou had never brought anyone else to meet Wang Fang before, but now, he brought Ying Nian with him, and he and Ying Nian smiled just like they used to. Ji Qingzhou had said before, "You are different." But now, Chu Cheng felt that he was the same as everyone else, nothing special.

He was in a bad mood and didn't want to stay any longer, fearing that he would lose control of his temper and say something inappropriate to Ji Qingzhou. So he politely told Wang Fang that he had things to do and prepared to leave.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Wang Fang quickly said to Ji Qingzhou, "Zhou, please see Chu off."

Ji Qingzhou nodded, "Okay."

Chu Cheng glanced at him and did not refuse.

Ji Qingzhou walked to the elevator with him and said gently, "Thank you for coming to see my mother."

"No, I just happened to be passing by."

"Actually..." Ji Qingzhou spoke slowly. He felt that they had terminated their contractual relationship, and Chu Cheng didn't need to care so much about Wang Fang. He was like this now, coming once a week, and Wang Fang was used to it. If one day, Chu Cheng's attachment to him was over, and he no longer associated with him or came to see Wang Fang, then Wang Fang would be sad, and she might even ask him again and again, "Why didn't Chu come recently? I haven't seen him for a long time."
