Twenty-eight:
Ji Qingzhou had just woken up and was still a little confused. He nodded stupidly and asked him, "How long have I slept?"
"Three or four hours is not too long." Chu Cheng stood up, walked in front of him, and handed him the teacup in his hand. "Here, try the tea I made."
Ji Qingzhou took it, took a sip from the cup, and praised, "Not bad."
"How lucky you are," Chu Cheng sat down on the edge of the bed, "You haven't even offered tea to dad yet, but dad is serving you first."
Ji Qingzhou immediately handed over the tea in his hand, "Cheers, Dad."
"Borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha? Offering me my tea?"
Ji Qingzhou smiled and said, "Then I'll make a pot of tea for you."
"That's better." Chu Cheng looked at him, "Okay, now that you're awake, get up and eat. It's time for dinner."
Ji Qingzhou nodded, lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
After Ji Qingzhou changed his clothes, the two took the elevator downstairs and went to the restaurant for dinner. Seeing Chu Cheng like this, Ji Qingzhou probably didn't plan to let him go back, so he asked, "Do I stay here tonight too?"
"What else?"
"Then I'll ask Qian to pick me up tomorrow morning."
"No need," Chu Cheng said, "I'll take you there. I'll sit in your rest area tomorrow and see who dares to do something dirty under my nose."
Ji Qingzhou heard this and looked at him, "I suddenly thought of an idiom."
"What?"
"The fox is relying on the tiger's might." Ji Qingzhou looked at him with his hands propped up, "I am now like the fox walking behind you."
"You are only like a fox in front of me." Chu Cheng picked up a piece of food for him with chopsticks. "You are mine. It's not that I don't allow you to mention me outside. When you need to use me to pressure others, you do it. When you need me to step forward, you call me. I let you be the fox behind me, but you hide away."
Ji Qingzhou picked up a piece of food for him and explained, "That's not the reason. You asked me to walk behind you because you are a good person, but I can't walk behind you forever."
Ji Qingzhou was very clear about their relationship. Chu Cheng was a good man with a good temper and was generous, so he didn't mind if he occasionally acted like a spoiled child and played tricks on him. However, they only had one year of interaction. After a year, the contract ended, and Chu Cheng went to find someone new he liked, so he lost this support.
Ji Qingzhou didn't want to rely too much on him, and even less on his power. Otherwise, once Chu Cheng left after a year, he would not be able to adapt. And the people he had offended in this year by borrowing Chu Cheng's power would also attack him after his backing was gone.
For Ji Qingzhou, although he has not suffered too much, he is not incapable of suffering, nor does he not know that suffering exists. Newcomers will always be treated unfairly and need to be patient. This is the same in any industry, especially in the entertainment industry. So many people without backing have survived in this circle. Ji Qingzhou does not think that he is worse than others, so if others can do it, he can do it too.
So he hopes to move forward step by step. In this way, even if Chu Cheng leaves a year later, he will not be flustered, but will smile and bless him and himself.
Chu Cheng listened to his words and naturally understood what he meant. He looked at Ji Qingzhou, who looked at him neither servilely nor arrogantly. Chu Cheng suddenly admired him. He felt that Ji Qingzhou lived very soberly and clearly. He knew what he was doing and what he wanted. He accepted his identity and could even speak softly to him, but he was very clear about the boundary between them and would not daydream.
This is rare, so Chu Cheng is very happy. After all, this is the person he likes. Chu Cheng thinks that this is indeed different from other relationships.
"Then do as you think." Chu Cheng said.
Ji Qingzhou nodded. They were all smart people, so Ji Qingzhou knew that Chu Cheng's words were not out of his good temper, but because he also remembered the one-year agreement.
Chu Cheng, in fact, should be very afraid that he would not keep the agreement, Ji Qingzhou thought, but fortunately, he is not such an ignorant person.
He lowered his head and concentrated on eating.
Ji Qingzhou has been filming for a while and couldn't visit his mother, so he kept in touch with Qin. Chu Cheng went to the hospital twice because of Ji Qingzhou. Ji's mother was in good condition and could chat with him sometimes. Chu Cheng was very talkative and could make Ji's mother laugh.
After hearing this, Ji Qingzhou thanked him very solemnly.
"No need. The biggest reason you're with me is your mother. As our middleman, I naturally have to care about her a little."
"You are such a good person."
Chu Cheng was about to refuse, but his eyes lit up and he pointed at him and said, "Remember this, today's second card."
Ji Qingzhou didn't expect that he had said this twice in one day, and quickly said, "Today's card has been issued, this one doesn't count."
"How can you change the rules of the game without permission? Check yourself to see if this sentence is in your game rules."
"I'll add it now." Ji Qingzhou said dishonestly.
Chu Cheng was simply stunned. "Unscrupulous merchants, cheating online. Honey, is this what your dad taught you?"
"All businessmen are dishonest." Ji Qingzhou replied.
