Chu Lingxiao leaned in Gu Qingze's arms as usual, and they were immersed in the world of movies together.
He raised his eyes slightly and caught Gu Qingze's serious expression as he watched the movie.
For some reason, Chu Lingxiao suddenly had an inexplicable thought in his heart, as if he had thought of something important. A hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes, and he asked softly:
"Qingze, do you feel any regret?"
Gu Qingze was somewhat bewildered by Chu Lingxiao's sudden words. His gaze, originally focused on the movie screen, slowly turned towards Chu Lingxiao, his eyes filled with confusion.
"What's the regret?"
Chu Lingxiao pursed his lips slightly, considered his words, and said slowly:
"Qingze, the fact that you didn't continue acting later... after all, you used to love acting so much."
Gu Qingze was stunned for a moment, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes, and then he shook his head: "In that original world...didn't I also fail to persevere and become a professional actor?"
"Maybe..." His eyes gradually became a little lonely, and he sighed softly, "I'm not that passionate about it, otherwise... I wouldn't give up so quickly."
Chu Lingxiao's heart moved slightly when he heard this. He gently held Gu Qingze's hand:
"That's not the case, Qingze, don't underestimate yourself. Giving up doesn't mean you don't love enough. Sometimes, reality forces us to make some difficult choices."
"You can't make a living from passion. Given the situation at the time...giving up was a rational choice."
After hearing what Chu Lingxiao said, Gu Qingze raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a bitter smile.
"...A realistic and rational choice? Perhaps. But sometimes I wonder if I had persisted a little longer, would the outcome have been different?"
Chu Lingxiao held Gu Qingze's hand tightly, as if to pass on his strength to him:
"Qingze, the past is the past, we can't change it. But we can create the present and the future together."
"Besides, we will definitely have our own little world related to the entertainment industry in the future. By then, it won't be too late for you to confirm your true thoughts."
..........................
Chu Lingxiao has never been picky about food. Although he can't say that he likes all foods, he certainly doesn't have any food that he particularly hates.
No matter what ingredients the dishes are made of, he can try and accept them with a calm attitude.
In his opinion, food is more about satisfying the body's needs and bringing a pleasant dining experience, so he is not overly picky.
In sharp contrast to him is Gu Qingze.
Gu Qingze is quite picky about food, and there are many foods that he absolutely refuses to touch.
For example, he can't eat bitter foods, such as bitter melon.
Once, bitter melon fried eggs appeared on the table. Gu Qingze just smelled it and immediately pushed the plate away.
Gu Qingze also cannot tolerate food that is too spicy.
When they tried spicy hot pot together before, Gu Qingze carefully picked up a piece of meat, put it in his mouth and took a bite, but was instantly stimulated by the strong spicy taste and stuck out his tongue.
He quickly put down his chopsticks and drank three glasses of water in succession before he could barely relieve the burning sensation in his mouth.
But Gu Qingze has an almost obsessive love for sweets. Ordinary desserts are always not sweet enough in his opinion, so he often adds sugar himself.
For this purpose, he has a special compartment in the refrigerator to store various white sugars and rock sugars, and he also buys a lot of candies and chocolates.
Besides that, Gu Qingze also didn't like drinking. In his opinion, the taste of alcohol was too stimulating. He only liked to drink some juice with a little alcohol in it, which could make him feel slightly drunk without being too strong.
Chu Lingxiao often felt that Gu Qingze's unique eating habits were both cute and helpless.
Once, they went to the supermarket together to buy groceries.
Chu Lingxiao deliberately wanted to tease Gu Qingze, so he quietly put a bag of bitter melon into the shopping cart.
Gu Qingze didn't notice it at first, but when he accidentally saw the bitter melon in the shopping cart, he reached out and took it out without hesitation and put it back on the shelf, muttering:
"You can't buy this. It's too bitter."
Then, as if he had thought of something, he added, "But...if Ling Xiao wants to eat it, you can buy a little bit."
Chu Lingxiao smiled and shook his head.
When he arrived at the dessert area, he was completely unable to move because of the various exquisite cakes and snacks displayed on the shelves.
He picked up a box of chocolate cake and said to Chu Lingxiao with anticipation, "Lingxiao, this must be delicious."
Chu Lingxiao looked at him lovingly and said with a smile, "Okay, buy some, but don't buy too much. Just buy it when you want to eat it."
Gu Qingze nodded happily and hugged the box of cake tightly as if he had obtained a treasure. Then, he couldn't wait to run to pick out candies.

However, there was one time when Grandma Li bought too much bitter melon because the bitter melons were on sale at a very low price in the vegetable market and she did not control the quantity well.
Looking at the mountain of bitter melons, Grandma Li thought that neighbors should take care of each other, so she decided to give some to Chu Lingxiao and Gu Qingze.
When Grandma Li came to their door with a smile on her face and a bag of bitter melons in her hands, the two of them were immediately in distress.
