He wanted nothing except the jade pendant and the bottle of stars, but as for the jade pendant, he also gave himself a jade pendant of equal value in return.
It was impossible for him to agree with him on everything. He hid the things that were not right and covered up his true thoughts with a submissive appearance. At this moment, Chu Cheng felt that he was indeed an actor, an excellent actor with superb acting skills.
They were silent for a moment, and Ji Qingzhou spoke first, "If there is nothing else, I'll hang up first. I have an announcement tomorrow and need to rest early."
Chu Cheng was not used to his way of speaking. He did not expect that one day, Ji Qingzhou would speak to him so politely. "Ji Qingzhou, are we... still friends?"
"Of course." Ji Qingzhou answered quickly.
Chu Cheng nodded, and couldn't help asking, "Is the new house good? How's the security system? You are a star now, you can't just live in an ordinary area, you know? You have to find an area with a higher safety factor."
"I know."
"You live alone, so you have to pay attention to your safety. If it's not possible, let Qian live with you, or arrange a life assistant for you. In fact, I wanted to work with Zhou Chengfeng at that time. With your current popularity, you can add another assistant. Qian will be responsible for your work, and another assistant will be responsible for your life."
"That's not necessary." Ji Qingzhou answered him, "When I'm filming, I have Qian and Brother Zhou with me. When I'm not filming, I don't need anyone's help. This is good enough."
"Really?" Chu Cheng murmured, without refuting him, and just said: "Then be careful and call me or call the police if you find any problems."
"Um."
What else? Chu Cheng thought, "Is the transportation convenient? The main thing is that you can't drive. I asked you to learn to drive before, but you always didn't have time. How about assigning you a driver? You are a star, you can't always take a taxi when you go out."
"No, I don't go out often except for work. Besides, when I have some free time, I will go to learn how to drive."
"The driver doesn't need it either." Chu Cheng whispered. He suddenly felt helpless and murmured unconsciously, "Why don't you need anything?"
Ji Qingzhou felt a little sad when he heard what he said. He blinked and advised Chu Cheng: "Chu Cheng, I know you are used to taking care of me, but I have never been a child. I am an adult and I can live independently. Before I met you, I also depended on my mother and I. I have grown up successfully, right? I am very grateful for your care and help for me this year, but the contract is over. You have no responsibility for me. You don't need to worry about these things anymore. I will take good care of myself, and I will work hard to grow and become a better person. So, you can put away the wings you opened for me and live a life that belongs only to you."
Chu Cheng was stunned. No matter how he thought, he never thought that Ji Qingzhou would say such a thing to him. He was really a very free and easy person. Last night, he could still be held in his arms, but now, he was advised to let go and live his own life. It was only one, not even 4 o'clock.
He was also worried that Ji Qingzhou would feel uncomfortable when he left. He was really overthinking it.
Chu Cheng didn't know how he hung up the phone. He held the phone in his hand, his mood as heavy as the deep sea. He silently changed his clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower, not thinking about anything else.
In the early morning, Chu Cheng woke up several times. Every time he woke up in a daze, he would turn on the light to find Ji Qingzhou because he was not by his side. However, when the light came on, he would remember that Ji Qingzhou had left and turn off the light to go to sleep again. He was used to sleeping with Ji Qingzhou in his arms, but now he was sleeping alone, and he tossed and turned, always unable to sleep well.
He thought of Ji Qingzhou again, and the year they had spent together. At the beginning, he took the initiative to hug Ji Qingzhou when he slept. At that time, he only wanted to sleep with him, thinking that it didn't matter if there were no fish or shrimps, he spent money and should always enjoy some benefits. But later, without his initiative, Ji Qingzhou would sleep in his arms. He would lie in his arms and chat with him, lie on him and discuss things with him, and hug him and act like a spoiled child when he called him to get up and sleep for a while.
When Ji Qingzhou first moved in, he didn't sleep in, but later, he learned to stay in bed in his arms.
Chu Cheng felt a little uncomfortable. He looked at the clock and it was only five o'clock. He was not like this before. Even if Ji Qingzhou went out to film, he would not be like this. He would still sleep soundly because he knew that he would always come back. But now, he knew that he would never come back.
After a brief encounter, the two of them eventually drifted further and further apart, just as he and Chu Xin had done before, and just as he had expected.
Chu Cheng got up and prepared to go to work in silence.
The author has something to say: Zhou Zhou: I am independent now, so Dad, you don’t have to care about me anymore.
Chu Cheng: Who told you to be independent? Dad doesn’t agree! Dad doesn’t accept your independence and allows you to rely on your parents forever! The cold leaves are fluttering and sprinkled all over my face. My son’s independence breaks my heart. Your words are like ice spikes piercing my heart. Dad is really hurt!
Zhouzhou:
Just like yesterday, no abuse allowed in this chapter~ muah, there is still one chapter~
