Chu Cheng looked at that smiling expression and thought to himself, "You can still smile."
He replied: The same to you, I wish you great success and good fortune.
Ji Qingzhou was very satisfied with this blessing and asked him: What are you doing?
"Making dumplings with my mom." Chu Cheng replied.
Ji Qingzhou was a little surprised: "You can make dumplings, I thought you couldn't cook."
Chu Cheng: Indeed, I don’t know how. I only know how to roll out dumpling wrappers.
Ji Qingzhou thought he was quite honest, but for a rich young man like Chu Cheng, it was good enough that he could roll out dumpling skins.
Chu Cheng: Have you made dumplings?
"No." Ji Qingzhou replied, "I was busy cooking in the afternoon and didn't have time to make dumplings. Don't worry, I'll make them tomorrow."
Chu Cheng guessed that Ming Bao should go home and make dumplings by himself, so he asked, "Are you still in the hospital?"
Ji Qingzhou: Yes, watching the Spring Festival Gala.
Chu Cheng: Aren’t you going back today?
Ji Qingzhou: No, it’s the New Year, I don’t want to be separated from my mother. Qin also went home for the New Year, so I can just rest in the nursing room.
Upon hearing this, Chu Cheng didn't know what to say for a moment, so he just said casually: "Then please ask my aunt a happy new year and a speedy recovery."
"Okay." Ji Qingzhou agreed readily, "She's asleep. I'll tell her when she wakes up tomorrow morning."
Chu Cheng was a little surprised: Is your mother asleep? So early?
Ji Qingzhou: She is not in good health. It is already past 9 o'clock and she should go to bed.
Chu Cheng: So you are watching the Spring Festival Gala alone now?
Ji Qingzhou said indifferently: Yes, I think some programs of this year's Spring Festival Gala are quite interesting, hahahaha.
Chu Cheng looked at his "hahaha" and thought that he must be forcing a smile. What's the point of this year's Spring Festival Gala? It's not like he didn't watch it. It's still as bad as last year, okay?
Alas, I have to perform alone on the Spring Festival Gala and pretend to be interesting. How miserable, really miserable.
Seeing that he had stopped what he was doing, Chu's mother urged him, "Why did you pick up your phone again? Work hard."
Chu Cheng responded helplessly, and went to roll the dumpling wrappers with Ji Qingzhou. Ji Qingzhou said generously: Then you go quickly, roll it well, come on!
Chu Cheng felt that what he said was simply too insincere. Did Ji Qingzhou come to talk to him late at night just to persuade him to roll the dumpling skins properly? Definitely not! He must be too lonely alone, so he couldn't help but come to talk to him, but he never thought that he would cruelly stop chatting with him for such a reason.
Whenever Chu Cheng thought about his whole family happily making dumplings, and Ji Qingzhou watching the Spring Festival Gala alone in the hospital, feeling empty, lonely and cold and wanting to talk to him, but he rejected him by making dumplings, he instantly remembered what his Chinese teacher taught in school: "Combine happy scenes with sad feelings to make the sadness even sadder." He could almost imagine the scene of Ji Qingzhou holding his mobile phone alone, scowling and forcing a smile.
Too miserable, really too miserable! Is this kind of misery real? His lover is too pitiful.
Chu Cheng couldn't sit still any longer, so he tried to talk to his mother, "Mom, I'm going out for a while."
"What are you doing outside on New Year's Day?"
"Shao Yong is heartbroken, I'm going to comfort him."
"When did he fall in love?" Chu's mother asked puzzledly, "Why haven't you heard about it before?"
"Oh, it was the first two times. We weren't really in a relationship. I just got along well with that girl. It was Chinese New Year this year, and Shao Yong didn't prepare a New Year's gift for her. We both drank, had a fight, and broke up. Shao Yong just sent me a WeChat message crying. He's a grown man, but he keeps sobbing as he types. It wouldn't be good if I didn't go over."
Chu's mother felt that young people nowadays were too hasty in breaking up, but young people are capable of anything, so she nodded and said, "Go ahead and try to persuade him. He has been drinking, so his words don't count. It's better to just make it clear."
"Yes, that's what I planned."
"Okay, go ahead."
Chu Cheng stood up, but suddenly thought of something and sat down to please his mother, "Mom, look at him crying so sadly. He was just busy drinking and didn't eat. How about I bring him some dumplings? These are convenient and can be cooked in one go."
Mother Chu did not doubt him and said generously, "Okay, bring more and let him eat more. He didn't stay at home during the New Year. Now it's okay, this is a lesson."
Chu Cheng agreed obediently, "Yes, these are all lessons."
Chu Cheng finished and went into the kitchen to get the lunch box. As a result, he turned around and almost bumped into Chu Xin's arms. "Fuck, brother, why are you walking without any sound? Are you a cat?"
Chu Xin put his hands in his pockets and looked at him, "Shao Yong is heartbroken?"
"Yes." Chu Cheng said without changing his expression.
Chu Xin took out his phone and waved it at him, "I'll give you one more chance to confess."
Author has something to say: Shao Yong (shouting at the top of his lungs): That’s fake! I’m not heartbroken! I’m fine! Trash! He values women over friends! He doesn’t even wish me well on New Year’s Day! Brother, beat him up!
Chu Cheng: Zhou Zhou is so miserable, it's really so miserable. I feel sorry for Zhou Zhou.
