Chapter 60 Chapter 60 Choosing Relatives Xu Qingye finished washing up...

After washing up, Xu Qingye lay in bed, his cell phone lying quietly on the bedside table. Xu Qingye turned his head to look at the phone, which was so quiet that it seemed broken. Xu Qingye even suspected that he had unpaid bills. He picked it up to check, and found that there was enough balance and enough battery. It seemed that no one had sent him messages or called him.

Xu Qingye stared at his phone for a while and was about to turn over and go to sleep when the phone, which had been quiet for a long time, finally vibrated. Xu Qingye immediately took the phone and looked at Shen Que's name popping up on the screen. He subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and slowly clicked on the message to read it.

Shen Que: This training is a closed training, so you may not be able to use your cell phone. If you have any questions, you can contact Sister Wen. I will contact you as soon as I get the cell phone.

Xu Qingye looked at the message sent by Shen Que. The tone was no different from usual, and there was not even an emoticon.

"Huh, who wants to contact you?"

The more Xu Qingye thought about it, the angrier he became. He threw his phone aside and went to sleep.

Perhaps it was because what happened that day was too sudden, Xu Qingye did not sleep well. In his dream, Shen Que seemed to have become a different person. He pressed him on the table, flattened him and stretched him, and he was like meat on a chopping board, allowing him to be slaughtered.

Xu Qingye suddenly woke up in the middle of the night and touched his forehead, which was covered with sweat.

"No, he's sick!"

Xu Qingye suddenly lost his sleepiness, so he simply got up, created a new blank document and began to analyze the reasons why Shen Que kissed him.

At least it couldn't be that awful "I want you," what kind of old-fashioned Taiwanese line!

Having almost not slept all night, Xu Qingye walked out of the room with dark circles under his eyes. He ate something simple and went out with his equipment.

The streets were already filled with the atmosphere of the New Year. Xu Qingye stood on the street and watched the people passing by. He suddenly felt a little lonely. He had been busy starting a business and being a paparazzi recently. His life was filled with various things and he didn't feel anything. Now that he was free, he suddenly felt empty.

Xu Qingye was just thinking about where to kill some time when the cell phone in his pocket rang.

"Brother Huang, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Xu Qingye shouted, and it sounded very lively from Brother Huang's end, with a bit of noise in the background.

"Can't I come to you if I have nothing to do? You are so heartless. I was thinking that the New Year is coming soon and you will probably be alone, so I asked you to come to my house for dinner. Your sister-in-law is making dumplings. Come over later and I will send you the address."

Brother Huang cursed in a low voice. Someone on the other end of the phone was calling him. He responded vaguely twice and then spoke to Xu Qingye.

"Come quickly, I have already mixed the fillings and am waiting for you to wrap them. Don't expect to eat them ready-made."

"Got it, I'll be right there."

Xu Qingye responded, and Brother Huang hung up the phone. He immediately received his location message on his mobile phone.

As far as he could remember, Xu Qingye had never been to Brother Huang's house, so out of courtesy he went there to buy some New Year's goods.

When he arrived at Brother Huang's house, he was greeted by a middle-aged woman who looked very kind. When she saw Xu Qingye, she smiled brightly and took his hand and walked inside.

"Hello, sister-in-law."

Xu Qingye greeted him, and the other person smiled even more brightly.

"I'm one year older than your mother. Calling her sister-in-law is a generation too far. Just call me Aunt Lu. Huang Youcai, that shameless old man, asks you to call him brother every day. Aren't you ashamed?"

Aunt Lu glared at Brother Huang who was not far away, then turned to look at Xu Qingye with tenderness in her eyes.

"Please sit down. I'll make some dumplings for you. Your mother is really heartless. She can't bear to give up such a good child."

"Do you know Xu Hong?"

Xu Qingye was a little surprised. He thought that only Brother Huang was familiar with Xu Hong, but he didn't expect that his wife also knew her.

"We are from the same village. After she became a big star, she donated money to the village. It's a pity that your grandparents were not so lucky and passed away early. Otherwise, they could have lived a better life with you."

"Stop talking about those trivial things. No one wants to hear them." Brother Huang came over and pushed Aunt Lu. Aunt Lu glared at him in dissatisfaction.

"The child is grown up now, she should know these things, there is nothing to hide, I am not talking nonsense. When Xiao Ye was just born, no one could bring a child to our house, so she should not be afraid of people saying that she did these things."

"Don't pay attention to him. He is just prejudiced against Xu Hong."

"I am biased? How dare you say that? Why do you still miss her after all these years?"

"Don't say that in front of the kids."

Brother Huang reached out and covered Aunt Lu's mouth, pulling her away. Xu Qingye smiled as he watched them bickering. The grievances of the previous generation were just like a story to him, except that he had accidentally become a character in the story.

Brother Huang has a daughter who is pretty and quiet. She works as a planner in an advertising company and looks nothing like Brother Huang.

When Huang Wanshu came back and saw a stranger, he was stunned for a moment, and then stared at Xu Qingye's face for a long time.

"What are you looking at? Don't like him. He is not suitable for you."

When Brother Huang saw his daughter staring at Xu Qingye, he immediately became alert. Although Xu Qingye had a good face, he did not want this son-in-law.

"Dad, don't talk nonsense. I just thought he looked familiar."

Huang Wanshu took out his cell phone and searched, and soon found the photos from the concert. He looked at the photos and then looked at Xu Qingye.

"Is this you? The person next to you is Shen Que."

Huang Wanshu was a little excited. Although Xu Qingye was not a star, he was also an Internet celebrity. Not to mention that Shen Que recently won the Best Actor Award. The value of their photo was much higher.

Xu Qingye didn't expect that there was someone who knew him, and nodded vaguely.

"Are you still friends after Shen Que debuted? I heard that many people broke up with their former friends after their debut."

Huang Wanshu was a little curious. Shen Que had become extremely popular recently. After winning the Best Actor award, he had filmed several commercials, which were everywhere on TV and the Internet. Many people in their company had become Shen Que's fans and were completely obsessed with him.

"Our relationship is the same as before, he is not that kind of person."

Xu Qingye felt a little guilty about what he said. Could their relationship still be the same as before?

"Eat your meal and stop asking questions."

"I know. I won't say anything nonsense."

Huang Wanshu made a face, lowered his head and quickly finished his meal.

After dinner, Brother Huang took Xu Qingye to sit in the living room and mysteriously handed him a USB flash drive.

"You can go back and figure out some of the information about Qingcheng Film and Television. But it probably won't be very useful. At most, they will push someone out to take the blame, and then use some excuses like poor management to excuse themselves. These big companies are all like this."

"You didn't let me check, so why did you check it yourself?"

Xu Qingye held the USB flash drive. He no longer had the impression that Brother Huang was the fat and shabby guy he used to be. He was now an elder who deserved respect.

"It's not that I don't allow you to check, I'm just afraid that you'll waste your time in vain. But then I thought about it and realized that doing anything is actually a waste of time. If you are interested, go ahead and check it out."

"It's New Year's Day, and you said something so touching that I don't know what to say. How about I just recognize you as my godfather? There's a line in Shen Que's play that says family members are chosen by oneself, so can I choose you as my family member?"

Xu Qingye suddenly became serious. Since he came here, Brother Huang was the only one who truly helped and cared for him.

Hearing Xu Qingye's words suddenly, Brother Huang seemed a little flustered. He originally wanted to light a cigarette, but he almost lit the wrong cigarette with the lighter in his hand.

"Don't be ridiculous. I can't be your godfather."

"Why not? You've been taking care of me for so many years. Besides, if you recognize me as your godfather, it's like having a godmother and a godsister. Then our family will be complete. We'll have a place to go during the holidays."

Xu Qingye looked at Brother Huang's house. The house was not big but very warm and cozy, with a strong sense of homeliness. It looked much more comfortable than his empty house.

"Just agree to it. The child has already said so. Why are you being so fussy? Besides, you always take care of him. It's not too much to be his godfather."

Brother Huang was hesitating and stammering, and Aunt Lu couldn't stand it any more, so she walked over and patted Brother Huang on the shoulder.

“This is no small matter.”

Brother Huang was a little hesitant. He wanted to ask Xu Hong first, but he swallowed the words back. Both mother and son were separated, and they should live their own lives and not disturb each other.

"It's not a big deal. There's no need to complicate things. It's just a matter of changing my words. Even if you disagree, this is what I think in my heart."

Xu Qingye is very serious. It is not just blood relationship that maintains the emotions between people. There is no relationship between him and Brother Huang, but he has taken care of him for so many years. Although the past twenty years were not the real him, his sincerity can be felt in this short time together.

"Okay, then we'll be a family from now on."

Brother Huang nodded, and he was actually choking up. Looking at Xu Qingye's clear eyes, he couldn't help but recall the past. The first time he met Xu Qingye was in the hospital. Xu Hong gave birth alone and no one was looking after her. He waited outside the delivery room for a long time. When the nurse brought the baby out, he didn't dare to hold it. Looking at the tiny baby in the cradle, he never thought that the bond between the two would be so deep, even deeper than that between the child's mother.

"Yes, yes, we are all family. Come often and I will make delicious food for you. By the way, do you have a date? You are so handsome, there must be a lot of girls who like you."

Aunt Lu was happier than Brother Huang. As she spoke, she reached out to touch Brother Huang's pocket.

"What are you doing, old lady?"

"Adopting a son requires a red envelope, but I don't have any cash."

As Aunt Lu spoke, she took out two hundred yuan from Brother Huang's pocket, went into the inner room, put the money in a red envelope and came out again.

"It happened so suddenly that I wasn't prepared. Don't complain."

Xu Qingye did not refuse. He took the red envelope and squeezed it. It was much thicker than two hundred yuan.

Aunt Lu brought up the matter of finding a partner again, and Xu Qingye was a little hesitant.

"Don't rush into love, I'll start my career first."

"That's fine. After all, we have to provide each other with a good living security. Making money is also very important." Aunt Lu nodded and said nothing more. Xu Qingye and Brother Huang chatted until midnight before leaving. Brother Huang was happy and drank some more wine. In the end, he started talking nonsense again.

When he drank too much, he would cry and laugh, and he would always repeat, "Such a good son, I am lucky to have him."

Xu Qingye took a photo of the street scene tonight and posted it on his Moments.

Xu Qingye: Among the thousands of lights, there is also a light that is lit for me.
