Chapter 88: He should be nicer to Wei Wei, even better...
Only after Wei Wei fell asleep did Zhou Youguan tiptoe out of his bedroom.
He returned to the ancestral hall again and looked through the contents of the wooden box again. He then looked up information about historical figures from the Daqi period. After sorting out everything, he finally understood what Wei Wei had suffered after the Wei family was framed.
Zhou Youling didn't return to the bedroom until almost dawn. When he returned to the room, Wei Wei was still asleep. Perhaps because of the medicine he had taken, Wei Wei slept very soundly today, which was unusual for him.
Zhou Youxuan squatted beside the bed, looking at the person on the bed, he felt so distressed that he couldn't help but want to cry.
He thought about how he would accept all this if he were Wei Wei.
A young general who was famous throughout the world when he was a teenager, a proud man who rode his horse in fine clothes on the battlefield, was forced to join the Western Factory as a eunuch and had to live in the dark corners of the palace for the rest of his life.
No wonder Wei Wei has so many scars on his body, no wonder he is never afraid of pain or death, it turns out that he has suffered enough pain and doesn't want to live like this forever.
He should be nicer to Wei Wei, even better.
…
When Wei Wei woke up, it was already past seven o'clock.
This was the latest he woke up that day. Perhaps the medicine he took last night had a hypnotic effect. He was uneasy in the dream at first, but then he fell into a deep sleep and could not hear anything.
Hearing the sound of him waking up, Big Fat stretched out his claws and roared silently. It seemed that he had been sleeping with him for a long time.
He rubbed the cat's face and Dapang licked the palm of his hand.
Wei Wei felt that he had indeed relaxed his vigilance recently. He had been living too comfortably and had forgotten the danger lurking around him.
As soon as he got out of bed, Zhou Youling came in with breakfast.
"Ah'wan, are you awake?" Zhou Youxuan put down his plate and drew aside the curtains. "Do you feel any discomfort in your chest?"
The dazzling light made Wei Wei squint his eyes. The air was much fresher after a night of rain. The Zhou family's old house was on the top of the mountain. Looking out the window, there was nothing but clouds and mist, which surrounded the hilltops and hillsides in front of him in layers. It was a rare and comfortable feeling.
Wei Wei wanted to pick up the slippers that Da Pang had taken away, but Zhou Youxuan got there first and picked up the slippers for him to put on, and also felt the temperature of his feet.
Wei Wei's feet were still cold after just getting out of bed.
"Put on some socks. It's a bit cold outside."
As Zhou Youxuan was speaking, he found a pair of socks from a drawer nearby. Wei Wei tucked his legs in to stop Zhou Youxuan, "...I can do it myself."
However, Zhou Youguan pushed his hand away and folded his legs across his knees. "From now on, you won't have to do anything about these things as long as I'm here. Although you haven't expressed whether you're willing to give me a chance, I'm happy to do this for you, so just let me take care of you."
Wei Wei just thought that such things were done by servants, and Zhou Youguan was a young master who had been spoiled since childhood, so it was inappropriate for him to do these things.
Wei Wei bent down to put on his shoes, and the hairband on his head was taken away somewhere by Big Fatty again. Zhou Youxing squatted beside him and found that the roots of Wei Wei's hair were actually white.
In fact, he discovered it on the show, but he didn't ask much that time, and thought that they made Wei Wei worry too much. But now, looking closely, it is not just a few roots of Wei Wei's hair that are white, but all the roots are white. It's just that they were dyed black later, but it is inevitable that the color will fade over time. The white roots have already shown some signs of slight yellowing.
"Why do you have so many white hairs?" Zhou Youguan frowned worriedly. "Are you feeling unwell?"
At Wei Wei's age, he wouldn't have a head full of white hair unless it was a congenital defect.
Catching a glimpse of a hairband stained with cat hair in the corner, Wei Wei stood up to pick it up, saying calmly, "No, I'm fine."
Zhou Youlan didn't believe it: "No, I have to take you to the hospital. You must have a full body check-up."
"No need to go, I'm fine."
"How can it be okay? I'm saying, you ancient people didn't take your bodies seriously, that's why your lifespans are so short. Can you please pay more attention to your own bodies?"
Zhou Youxuan took out his cell phone and contacted Assistant Zhou to prepare a car. He didn't want to care about any live broadcast programs. Wei Wei's health was the most important thing.
Unable to argue with him, Wei Wei had to tell the truth.
"After the entire Wei family was executed, I was so grief-stricken that my hair turned white overnight." Wei Wei rarely talked about this with others. He took the phone that Zhou Youguan had pressed to his ear and said, "It's always been like this. I'm used to it. It doesn't affect my body. There's no need to make such a big fuss."
"It's just that Assistant Zhou said I would be too conspicuous if I dyed my hair."
Zhou Youguan murmured, "But there's no record in history books of you... turning gray overnight."
"Thousands of years have passed, and much of history has long been forgotten and erased. I'm just an ordinary person. How could history books clearly record my life?"
Zhou Youlan: "You are not an ordinary person. In my heart, no one can compare to you."
Wei Wei felt that he might have to quickly get used to Zhou Youlan's recent way of speaking, which was too straightforward and passionate without any reservation.
Being stared at by Zhou Youguan, Wei Wei had no choice but to dodge: "I'm going to wash up."
Zhou Youguan's frown concealed his pity and guilt towards Wei Wei.
He thought that if he put himself in Wei Wei's shoes, he could empathize with his grief, but in fact, since he had not experienced it himself, he could not understand how angry and helpless Wei Wei was at that time.
Seeing their family members being wrongly accused and charged with crimes such as treason and collaborating with the enemy was a vicious conspiracy that broke their hearts for the Wei family, who were dedicated to serving their country and guarded the border all year round.
He was in so much pain when he watched his mother die. What about when Wei Wei saw his father beheaded, his mother poisoned, and his second brother trampled into a pulp by a carriage... If it were him, he would have wanted to kill all those who wronged them. No wonder Wei Wei's hair turned white overnight.
…
They were delayed for two more days until the day of the live broadcast, when they finally flew over from the old house.
The program crew and organizers were extremely anxious, but fortunately, one hour before the live broadcast started, the two people finally landed safely and arrived at the live broadcast site.
The makeup team staff all came into action and sent the two people to the stage one minute before the live broadcast started.
The other guests had already arrived and had been staying in the lounge for the entire afternoon, but they hadn't waited for Wei Wei and Zhou Youlan to come on stage. They met them now. As soon as Wei Wei stepped onto the stage, several people stood up at the same time and hurried to greet him.
"Brother Wei!"
"Teacher Wei, long time no see."
"Wei Wei, long time no see. How is your recovery? Are you okay?"
Zhang Longtong and Ruan Mengmeng were the first to run over, each holding one of Wei Wei's arms. Others also hurried over to shake hands and greet him. The media at the scene also shouted Wei Wei's name in unison, and even held up banners.
It was a rare occasion for Zhou Youxuan to be ignored, so everyone came forward to greet him warmly and pulled Wei Wei towards the center of the stage. Zhou Youxuan was left at the end, and no one paid any attention to him.
"Teacher Zhou, no one is paying attention to you. Let me shout for you!"
At this time, other people came one after another to warm up Zhou You: "Welcome, Mr. Zhou."
The big monkey who had arrived early then extended his hand and deliberately teased: "Welcome, Teacher Zhou!"
Zhou Youlan smiled and pushed him away. He thought that the big monkey would not come. Assistant Zhou was not happy to see the big monkey show up in public like this.
"Brother, why didn't you reply to all the messages I sent you? If you hadn't appeared just now, I would have thought you weren't coming."
"Aren't you guys staying at the old house the whole time? Are you so busy that you don't even reply to my messages once?"
Zhou Youguan kept pace with Wei Wei, and the big monkey chased after him. "I'm talking to you, and you have to ignore me, right? I heard from my dad that you and Wei Wei turned the ancestral hall upside down."
"Shut up." Zhou Youguan warned him in a low voice, asking him to speak less.
The big monkey pursed his lips unwillingly. He heard from his father that Wei Wei had been sleeping in the same bed with Zhou Youguan every day recently. The two of them dared to be so blatant in the old house. He didn't know how the master could tolerate it.
Seeing Wei Wei again, not only the scene but also the live broadcast room was very lively.
[It’s been so long, it’s been so long, we finally meet again!!]
[Ahhh my Wei Wei, kiss kiss kiss, how come you are so handsome again?]
[Wow, the production team put a lot of effort into this! Wei Wei's makeup tonight deserves 10 stars! It's so beautiful that it makes me lick the screen.]
[Wow, will there be a live stream after the livestream ends? Wei Wei looks so good tonight. Who is the makeup artist? Why does he look so delicate?]
[It’s over, my mom is watching the live broadcast too, but I muted hers, and she kept praising Wei Wei, hahahahaha]
[You won’t believe me if I tell you this, but my whole family is watching the live broadcast. I hope to get a spot for the online session later. I really want to talk to Wei Wei.]
[Now I finally understand that feeling: as soon as he appears, everyone else becomes dim and dull.]
[As soon as Wei Wei appeared, I felt that no one else could catch my eye. It was impossible not to be attracted to him. His appearance and personality charm were so alluring.]
[I heard that Wei Wei didn't want to participate at first, but the production team begged him to come out.]
[Wei Wei, can you please stay in the entertainment industry? It's so hard to get a taste of this world. If you leave, no one will be able to enjoy it anymore.]
[srds, Wei Wei's personality is not suitable for staying in the entertainment industry]
Afraid that the media reporters would ask some tricky questions, Zhou Youxuan deliberately sat next to Wei Wei. When the media reporters saw them sitting close together, they started to make a commotion.
Just over a month or two had passed, and their relationship seemed to have become increasingly harmonious.
Sometimes Zhou Youxuan would block some tricky questions for Wei Wei, and when Wei Wei was unsure, he would subconsciously look at Zhou Youxuan with inquiries.
Zhao Guanjun even personally invited Wei Wei and Zhou Youlan to be the two male protagonists of his next movie.
As we all know, the movies that Zhao Guanjun appears in are basically martial arts series, but he also makes new stars popular. Otherwise, Chen Nan and Wang Chunqin would not always appear behind Zhao Guanjun on the show.
Zhao Guanjun's invitation was very sincere. He had said many times that he really wanted to work with Wei Wei and was very sincere. As long as Wei Wei was willing, he could let Wei Wei ask for any price he wanted.
