[156. Everything has changed]
Cheng Qingxing stood there in a daze. This was the first time he heard him talk about his mother.
"What kind of person is your mother?" Cheng Qingxing asked curiously, "I've never heard you talk about her before."
"You haven't told me what kind of person your mother is." Zheng Xuhe retorted subconsciously.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he seemed to have said something wrong.
"I...I didn't mean it." Zheng Xuhe immediately added.
Cheng Qingxing was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and said softly: "It's okay, I don't care about this matter myself."
"You should know now why I didn't tell you about my family."
Zheng Xuhe did know, because those two people were not his family at all.
They had no so-called family affection for Cheng Qingxing at all. In their eyes, Cheng Qingxing was just a commodity.
"My mother is a very ordinary woman." Zheng Xuhe sat next to him and talked about his mother's family. "There's nothing special about her. I don't even know how she and Chen Jianmin met."
In Zheng Xuhe's memory, his mother was a frail and sickly woman, so their family conditions were very poor.
My mother is in poor health, so she can only do clerical work, and life at home has always been very tense.
"Since I was able to train you, you shouldn't be ordinary." Cheng Qingxing complained quietly.
Zheng Xuhe recalled carefully and still felt that his mother was very ordinary: "She loved me very much, just like all mothers."
She would save the best meat for herself and give her enough pocket money. Even though studying art was very expensive, she would still support her in pursuing her dreams.
The sentence she said to Zheng Xuhe the most was, "Xuhe, you can do it."
In his life, his mother and Cheng Qingxing occupied everything.
Hearing this, Cheng Qingxing didn't plan to ask him any more questions, so he smiled and said, "Your mother must be a very good person."
"I was still young when she passed away," Zheng Xuhe recalled. "On the day I was admitted to the Central Academy of Film and Television, my mother fainted at home. By the time she was rushed to the hospital, it was too late."
The ward was exceptionally quiet at this moment. Cheng Qingxing didn't know what to do. He looked at Zheng Xuhe with a hint of heartache in his eyes.
"Zheng Xuhe..." Cheng Qingxing said softly, with a hint of tears in her voice, "I'm sorry, I didn't know..."
Zheng Xuhe looked at Cheng Qingxing in confusion. In fact, he was not as sad as he had imagined. Instead, Cheng Qingxing looked like he was about to cry, which made him want to laugh.
"It's okay." Zheng Xuhe stood up and patted his shoulder gently. "My mother has always had heart problems. When she passed away, she already knew that I was admitted to university, so she should have been happy at that time."
After he said this, Cheng Qingxing cried even harder, secretly wiped away her tears, and then gently patted his shoulder, "Well, your mother in heaven, seeing that you have become famous all over the country, she must be happy for you too."
Zheng Xuhe stood up, looked at Cheng Qingxing's appearance, frowned slightly, Cheng Qingxing's tear point was indeed a bit low.
In fact, when they were together, Zheng Xuhe discovered that Cheng Qingxing had a horrifyingly low tear point.
He would cry when watching movies, watching stories about pets, and hearing news about traffic accidents.
However, Cheng Qingxing wanted to save face, so she basically never cried in front of others. She always wiped her tears secretly.
When they were in love, they lived together for a long time. Zheng Xuhe got used to his behavior and started handing him tissues.
He looked around, then took out a tissue from the side and handed it to him to wipe his tears.
Cheng Qingxing didn't realize anything was wrong and subconsciously reached out to take the tissue. When he came to his senses, he found that he had been crying for a while and there were tissues all around him.
"I seem to have cried too much again." Cheng Qingxing's eyes were red, and she looked a little pitiful. "I'm sorry to have wasted your time again."
Zheng Xuhe stood aside, looking at Cheng Qingxing, and wiped away his tears, "You seem to have changed, but you also seem to have not changed."
The two of them looked at each other, as if they had gone back to a long time ago.
"Actually, everything has changed. At least I see the white hair on your head."
Zheng Xuhe's heart trembled when he heard this. He took out his mobile phone and started looking. As a result, he really saw a white hair.
His face fell instantly, and he said in disbelief: "I'm only thirty years old, and I already have white hair?"
"I have one too." Cheng Qingxing comforted him and said, "It's okay, it's just a white hair, not a big deal."
But Zheng Xuhe's face looked unchanged and still looked very bad.
Cheng Qingxing didn't dare to speak and pursed her lips. It seemed that Zheng Xuhe cared a lot about the fact that he was old.
He looked at Zheng Xuhe's depressed expression and wanted to say a few words to comfort him, but he didn't know how to say it.
"Knock, knock, knock—" There were three knocks on the door, and the secretary appeared at the door.
He looked at the two people sitting on the edge of the bed, bowed somewhat stiffly, and then said softly: "Master Zheng, Master Chen is looking for you."
Zheng Xuhe glanced at the secretary, then stood up and said, "Okay, I'll be right there."
As soon as the secretary left, Cheng Qingxing immediately kicked Zheng Xuhe lightly: "Go ahead, don't keep Mr. Chen waiting too long."
"I was talking to him about business, not about me—"
"Stop, stop, stop!" Cheng Qingxing interrupted him directly, "I know, you don't have to explain. Even if you return to the Chen family, I will support you."
Cheng Qingxing will not interfere with any choice Zheng Xuhe makes, he will only support Zheng Xuhe's choice.
"Just do what you think is right, no need to tell me."
"I have to tell you." Zheng Xuhe straightened his shirt. "I didn't like to report to you before, so there were so many problems."
He was stunned, and suddenly realized where Zheng Xuhe had changed.
In the past, Zheng Xuhe would only act silently, so he never knew what he was thinking, but now it is different.
Zheng Xuhe would finish his tasks and then talk to him for a few words. He didn't have to guess what Zheng Xuhe was thinking or doing.
The white wall between the two seemed to fall away bit by bit, and they could see each other more clearly than ever before.
They've both changed.
"That's...not bad." Cheng Qingxing smiled subconsciously, "Go and do your thing. I'll wait for you here."
Zheng Xuhe looked at him, then walked up to him and kissed his forehead gently, "Well, I'm leaving."
