Chapter 28: Testing
At that point in time, whether in the previous life or this life, Chi Cheng should never have known Wu Suowei.
It is even more impossible to know his home address and take the initiative to visit him.
Chi Cheng...how much does he know?
When did he set his sights on me?
Why did he target me so early?
Wu Suowei could only think of one possibility.
Chi Cheng also came back.
Wu Suowei returned to the dining table with a glass of orange juice in his hands and feet, trying to keep calm on his face, but his heart was in turmoil.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was subtle.
Wu Suowei did not know the taste of food.
He watched Chi Cheng and his mother chatting happily, and the more he watched, the more frightened he became.
No, he had to figure it out.
He put down his chopsticks, cleared his throat, turned his gaze to Chi Cheng, and pretended to chat.
"Hey, Chi Cheng, I see you seem to like... uh, raising some special pets?" He carefully avoided the word "snake", wanting to see Chi Cheng's reaction.
If Chi Cheng remembered his previous life, when he mentioned pets, he would probably think of Huang Long.
Then...will you think of yourself?
Think about what you will look like when you die?
Chi Cheng was serving soup to Zhang Liya. Hearing this, he didn't stop and replied naturally, "It's okay. I raise a little thing depending on my mood. You've seen it before, a little jealous person."
The tone was calm and there was nothing unusual to hear.
Wu Suowei's heart skipped a beat.
No reaction? Did you cover it up too well, or... you really don't remember?
Zhang Liya interrupted, "Daqiong, look at Xiaochi. He's successful in his career, a steady person, and a loving person! You can tell he's definitely not worried about little girls liking him. When will you bring me another girlfriend?"
The topic was instantly diverted to urging marriage.
Wu Suowei: ...
He glanced at his mother speechlessly and could only respond vaguely: "Mom...eat, eat!"
The first attempt failed.
After a while, Wu Suowei didn't give up and found another topic: "Chi Cheng, you are so busy, you probably don't have time to get a girlfriend, right?"
He deliberately led the topic to "feelings" in order to test the "white moonlight" or Yue Yue.
Maybe we can find out what's going on between Chi Cheng and Yue Yue.
At that time in his previous life, Chi Cheng probably didn't even recognize Yue Yue.
Chi Cheng raised his eyes to look at him, his gaze a little deep, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be smiling: "Why? Are you concerned about me?"
Wu Suowei felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by him, so he said stubbornly: "Just... just asking casually."
Zhang Liya immediately chimed in, gossiping. "That's right, Xiao Chi. You're so good looking, so there must be a lot of girls chasing you, right? If you find a suitable one, you should hurry up! Unlike our Da Qiong, who's always busying around doing nothing!"
Chi Cheng smiled and didn't directly answer Wu Suowei's question. Instead, he said to Zhang Liya, "Auntie, things like fate... can't be rushed."
Wu Suowei was speechless again.
No, Mom, can you please cooperate with your son?
Wu Suowei poked the rice in the bowl as if to vent his anger, but suddenly felt a warmth against his legs under the table.
Wu Suowei looked at the culprit with gritted teeth, while Chi Cheng was still dealing with Zhang Liya as if nothing had happened.
Depend on!
Wu Suowei didn't tolerate Chi Cheng and suddenly stepped on Chi Cheng's instep.
Unexpectedly, Chi Cheng remained calm. Instead, he raised his knees and held Wu Suowei's legs firmly on his legs.
Wu Suowei was shocked. What if his mother found out?
Wu Suowei quickly pulled back his legs, took a deep breath, and decided to be direct and ask about the "sad thing".
"Um... Chi Cheng," he said in a dry voice, "Have you ever... experienced anything particularly sad before? For example... losing someone very important?"
He stared into Chi Cheng's eyes, his heart pounding.
Chi Cheng suddenly stopped picking up the food.
He raised his head and looked at Wu Suowei with a serious gaze. There seemed to be something surging in the depths of his eyes, complex and difficult to discern.
The air seemed to freeze for a few seconds.
Wu Suowei's heart was in his throat.
There is a reaction!
At this moment, Zhang Liya sighed heavily, put down her chopsticks, and sighed with empathy: "Alas... Speaking of sad things, who hasn't touched the past? Xiao Chi, don't take it to heart! It's over!"
The emotions surging in Chi Cheng's eyes subsided instantly. He lowered his eyes, hummed softly, and said nothing more, silently eating the rice in the bowl.
Wu Suowei: ...
He felt a breath stuck in his chest and almost passed out.
Mom! You really are my real mom! Are you here just to sabotage me?!
Wu Suowei was completely discouraged and poked at the rice grains in the bowl listlessly.
This guy Chi Cheng, either his acting skills are too good or he is too lucky, because he is always interrupted by his mother.
The meal was over and it was getting dark.
Zhang Liya looked out the window, then looked at Chi Cheng, her tone full of concern: "Oh, it's so late, Xiao Chi, it's too late to drive back..."
Wu Suowei was cleaning up the dishes when he heard this, and memories of his previous life flashed through his mind like a conditioned reflex.
At that time, Zhang Liya also asked Chi Cheng to stay overnight.
He didn't think much about it and replied casually: "I know, I know. Let Chi Cheng leave tomorrow, right?"
After saying that, I still feel that I am very considerate.
Zhang Liya was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up and she slapped her thigh: "That's right! I was thinking of asking you to go back earlier. Chi Chi, since Da Qiong said so, if you don't mind Da Qiong, just make do with Da Qiong!"
Wu Suowei: ???
The bowl in Wu Suowei's hand almost fell to the ground with a clang!
He raised his head suddenly, his eyes almost popping out: "Mom! That's not what I meant! I..."
He wanted to slap his own mouth!
Chi Cheng was also stunned, and then a hint of ecstasy and success quickly flashed across his eyes.
Is there such a good thing?
He tried hard to suppress the upward curve of his lips, and put on an expression that was a bit embarrassed but also reluctant to refuse the hospitality: "Is this...convenient? Will it be too much of a bother?"
"It's convenient! What's inconvenient about it?" Zhang Liya said decisively, "Daqiong! Go clean up your room quickly! There's a new quilt in the closet!"
Wu Suowei looked at the scene of "loving mother and filial son" in front of him, and then looked at Chi Cheng's eyes that were trying hard to conceal but were still surprisingly bright. He was extremely sad and angry, and roared in his heart.
My mouth!!!!
Wu Suowei was full of anger and went back to his room to make a hard bed on the floor.
He deliberately made the quilt very thin and picked the hardest pillow and threw it on the ground.
He knelt on the floor, spreading the sheets, his mind in a turmoil.
I got an advance on my film remuneration, which is a considerable income.
But before the money could even warm up, she was entangled in the same bed with Chi Cheng again!
The most important thing right now is to find out Chi Cheng's trump card.
Does he know about his past life?
Why was he able to find his home before he was reborn?
Who is the "white moonlight" that made him lose control?
And...Yue Yue.
Whenever Wu Suowei thought of Yue Yue, he felt upset.
All the bad things from my previous life came flooding back to my mind.
“Buzz buzz buzz—”
On the bedside table, Chi Cheng's phone suddenly vibrated and the screen lit up.
