156, one hundred and fifty-six (2 / 2)



"Okay." Ji Qingzhou was unwilling to expose him.

But after a while, there was another "Gu——"

Ji Qingzhou: ...

Chu Cheng was a little embarrassed. He silently reached out and rubbed his stomach. Unfortunately, it was useless. Soon, his hungry stomach made a third whine, "Gu——"

Ji Qingzhou: ...

Ji Qingzhou got up and prepared to cook.

"Baby, listen to me..."

"I know," Ji Qingzhou interrupted him, "I am hallucinating, but I am hungry and I want to eat something."

Seeing him throw back the quilt and get out of bed while talking, Chu Cheng had no choice but to give up struggling and follow him.

Ji Qingzhou took out the leftover fried rice and other side dishes from the refrigerator. Chu Cheng helped him wash the vegetables and watched him quickly cut the side dishes into dices, put them in a bowl, and took them out. There was a light in the kitchen, Ji Qingzhou turned on the light, and Chu Cheng still lit the fire while Ji Qingzhou cooked. After a while, a pot of fragrant fried rice was ready.

Ji Qingzhou served him a bowl, and symbolically served himself a bowl, then took it back to the room and started eating.

Chu Cheng was indeed hungry, and he ate faster than Ji Qingzhou. Ji Qingzhou poured him a glass of water, and thinking of the famous expression that was popular on the Internet, he asked him, "Does it smell good?"

"It smells good." Chu Cheng said innocently.

Ji Qingzhou wanted to laugh but was afraid of being discovered by him, so he could only laugh softly, "As long as you like it."

He wasn't actually very hungry. After eating a few bites, he didn't feel like eating anymore and pushed the bowl to Chu Cheng, "Here you go. I'm full."

"What kind of stomach do you have, a cat's stomach? Are you full after eating just that little?"

Ji Qingzhou shrugged, "I never eat as much as you do."

That's right, Chu Cheng thought, it's really easy to feed him. He finished the fried rice that Ji Qingzhou left, and only then did he feel full.

Ji Qingzhou wanted to wash the dishes, but Chu Cheng held him back and said, "Just sit down and I'll wash them."

Chu Cheng scooped water from the jar, went to the kitchen, and washed all the pots and bowls.

While Ji Qingzhou was washing the pots and bowls, he looked up at the night sky. He had noticed yesterday that the night sky here had many stars, which was completely different from the city they were in.

"There are so many stars." Ji Qingzhou exclaimed.

Chu Cheng looked up and said, "Yes, there are quite a lot."

"The thin clouds are playing tricks, the flying stars are conveying hatred, the Milky Way is far away and dark. When the golden wind and jade dew meet, it is better than countless things in the world."

Chu Cheng heard this and added: "Love is like water, and the good time is like a dream. I can't help but look back at the Magpie Bridge. If love is long-lasting, why should we be together day and night?"

Ji Qingzhou looked back at him and smiled silently.

Chu Cheng looked at him tenderly, and suddenly thought, "What time is it?"

"I'll go check it out." He ran into the room and looked at the alarm clocks that the program team had temporarily equipped for each group of guests, then ran to Chu Cheng and said to him, "It's 11 o'clock."

"Oh." Chu Cheng nodded.

He quickly washed the pots and bowls, and said to Ji Qingzhou, "Let's play a game."

“What game?

“Designate something, such as a star, and take turns writing poems about it. Whoever doesn’t come up first loses.”

"Okay, let's start with the stars."

Ji Qingzhou said, and recited a line of ancient poetry. Chu Cheng followed with another line, stealing a glance at the time without making a sound.

When there were still 10 minutes to 1 o'clock, Chu Cheng played a game of idioms with him. He deliberately guided Ji Qingzhou, and sometimes Ji Qingzhou would follow his ideas, and sometimes he would suddenly come up with an idiom that he had never thought of. Chu Cheng looked at the time, a little scared whether he could get the word he guided at midnight, but fortunately, at the last moment, God favored him.

"It's an old saying." Chu Cheng said.

"Chatting and laughing." Ji Qingzhou blurted out.

Chu Cheng looked at him and said gently, "Happy birthday."

Ji Qingzhou laughed, "Happy Birthday is not an idiom, why don't you change it?"

Chu Cheng felt that he was really only thinking about idioms, "Happy birthday to you, it's midnight, your birthday has arrived, happy birthday."

Ji Qingzhou was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening. He slapped his head in annoyance and said, "I forgot about it."

"Now you know."

Ji Qingzhou smiled embarrassedly, but was also very happy that Chu Cheng still remembered and waited until midnight to say this to him. He couldn't help but laugh out loud.

When Chu Cheng saw him smile, he felt that this night was worth it.

He walked to his suitcase, opened it, and took out a beautiful box, "Birthday present."

"You also brought a birthday present?!" Ji Qingzhou was surprised.

"Open it and take a look."

Ji Qingzhou took it and opened the box, and saw a bracelet inside. A diamond-studded star was hanging on the platinum chain, which flickered in the dim light. Chu Cheng helped him take out the bracelet and put it on his hand. Ji Qingzhou then discovered that the lock of the chain was a delicately carved rose with branches.

Chu Cheng helped him put it on, kissed the back of his hand, and said softly, "May you be covered in starlight, and may your star journey be smooth."

Ji Qingzhou is always moved by these little details. As he watched Chu Cheng kissing the back of his hand, there was only tenderness in his eyes.
