He shook the jade pendant around his neck and said, "After all, I am still just a green apricot."
Chu Cheng was amused by him. Looking at the jade pendant on his neck, he said softly, "Then remember what you did today."
Ji Qingzhou made a K sign and said, "Don't worry."
After Chu Cheng gave the New Year gifts, he remembered that he had brought dumplings for Ji Qingzhou. He walked over, picked up the bag, and handed it to Ji Qingzhou. "These are dumplings made at home. You don't have to make them tomorrow. You can eat them directly by cooking them in the microwave. It will save you the trouble. I remember that the microwave in Auntie's ward has a button for cooking dumplings, right?"
Ji Qingzhou nodded, "Yes, there is this function."
He didn't expect Chu Cheng to bring him dumplings, and was touched for a moment, "Is this what you rolled out?"
"My mom and I rolled the dough, and my brother and dad wrapped it."
"You take it out like this, don't your parents have any problem with it?"
"No." Chu Cheng put the dumplings on the table. "My Shao Yong is heartbroken, so I have to come out to comfort him and bring him some food. My mother agreed."
Ji Qingzhou smiled when he heard this, "Does Shao Yong know about this?"
"Of course he knew. We had agreed on the words."
Ji Qingzhou listened and felt a little bitter after realizing it belatedly - Chu Cheng's family didn't know of his existence, and even Chu Cheng had to use his friend's name to meet him. The relationship between the two of them was ultimately short-lived and shameful.
"Does your family know me?" he asked tentatively.
"My brother knows. You are an artist in his company. He knows a little bit about you."
"Then what did your brother have?" Ji Qingzhou asked.
Chu Cheng shook his head, "No."
He looked at Ji Qingzhou, "Why are you asking this? Are you worried that he will cause you trouble? No, my brother is not that kind of person, don't worry."
Ji Qingzhou nodded, not knowing what he was feeling for a moment. He looked at the dumplings Chu Cheng had placed on the table. Chu Cheng's mother thought that he had brought these dumplings to Shao Yong, but in fact, they were not. Chu Cheng's parents would never know that the dumplings they made had come to him, just like they would never know that there was such a person as Chu Cheng by his side.
Keeping a mistress is never something that can be brought to the table. Chu Cheng would take him to meet his friends, but would never take him to meet his family. ——He was just a brief moment in Chu Cheng's long life, accompanying him for a year, and then there was no connection.
Therefore, he is like a night-blooming cereus, which can only bloom at night and cannot see the light.
Ji Qingzhou blinked, quickly adjusted his mentality, and put away these negative emotions. There is nothing to be depressed about, he thought, he knew the relationship between them from the beginning to the end, so there is nothing to worry about. Chu Cheng sent him dumplings, not to make him think about these things.
He turned to look at Chu Cheng and smiled, "Well, I see. Thank you for the dumplings, so I won't make them for now."
Chu Cheng didn't know that he had thought so much in his mind, so he just responded to his words, "No need to pack, I brought a lot, it should be enough for you and your mother."
"You are quite attentive."
"That is."
Ji Qingzhou looked at him and felt that he was generally happy tonight - Chu Cheng's arrival was enough to make him happy. He took out his cell phone and looked at the clock. It was past 11:40, almost 1 o'clock.
Ji Qingzhou waited for a while, and said in time with Chu Cheng, "Happy New Year."
When he finished, he leaned forward and kissed Chu Cheng. Chu Cheng held him down, kissed him, held him in his arms, and whispered, "You are happy too."
"Yeah." Ji Qingzhou agreed with a smile.
He slightly distanced himself from Chu Cheng, looked at him, and said softly, "Ah Cheng, thank you for coming to spend the New Year with me. I'm very happy."
Chu Cheng smiled and said nothing.
"Since I don't have a gift in return for you yet, I'll send you a card first." Ji Qingzhou said, "This is the fifth one."
"Five already?" Chu Cheng didn't expect there were so many. "Then there are only two left. I feel like I'm not far from collecting all of them."
"So you can think about what you want?"
"You have stumped me. What do I want?" Chu Cheng frowned and thought about it.
"If you really can't think of anything, just follow your first one."
"What did I do at the beginning?" Chu Cheng had completely forgotten.
Ji Qingzhou looked at him, feeling a little embarrassed, but still came out, "You, if you collect seven, we'll drive."
Chu Cheng was shocked. "Did I do this at the beginning?" He finished, and felt that he did so at that time. "But didn't you disagree?"
"But don't you want anything else?"
“That’s true.”
No! What is this! You didn't agree then, why do you agree now? What about your insistence? Chu Cheng's mind was filled with comments. He turned to look at Ji Qingzhou who was looking at him, and saw Ji Qingzhou looking at him with clear eyes.
Author has something to say: Chu Cheng: Don't look at me like that! You are tempting people to commit a crime, do you understand?
