Ji Qingzhou didn’t speak, it felt like he was always the first to ask, as if he was in a hurry.
Seeing that he didn’t speak, Chu Cheng smiled and kissed his forehead. “I’ll take you to a place after watching the movie.”
“Where?”
“One of my family villas.” Chu Cheng replied.
Ji Qingzhou nodded, “Okay.”
Chu Cheng lowered his head and tenderly kissed his lips, “Tomorrow is December 31st,” he whispered, “the end of the old year and the beginning of the new year, I want to establish our new relationship in the new year, is that OK?”
Ji Qingzhou understood, he nodded shyly, “Yes.”
Chu Cheng gave him a final kiss, “Thank you.”
Ji Qingzhou hugged him in silence. He leaned in Chu Cheng’s arms, but his heart had already flown to tomorrow, he looked forward to the future with Chu Cheng, full of expectation of their joyful future.
The next afternoon, Ji Qingzhou and Chu Cheng watched the premiere of the film. “Broken Light” was very well shot, Lian Jingxing’s performance in it was outstanding, he watched the ups and downs of Lin Luofeng in the movie, watching his grief after finding out his brother died, he subconsciously started crying. When Lin Luofeng dreamt of Lin Luoyang, the sound of sobs filled the cinema one after another, Ji Qingzhou also had red eyes. It was only when Lin Luofeng finally caught the murderer and paid tribute to his brother that he felt a little better.
When the lights came on, Chu Cheng looked his red eyes and the undried tear marks on his face, “How did you cry to this point?”
Although he was touched, he suppressed his tears, he didn’t think Ji Qingzhou would cry so sadly.
Chu Cheng reached out to help him wipe his tears, “It’s true that the movie you acted in is very touching, but look at you crying.”
Ji Qingzhou cried very quietly, he didn’t make a sound, and he didn’t speak, it took a moment for him to whisper, “I was very moved. The movie is really very moving.”
“Yes, I heard a lot of girls crying midway.”
He looked at Ji Qingzhou and handed him tissues.
Because of Ji Qingzhou’s star status, the two waited together until the hall was empty, then they left. Chu Cheng took him to a restaurant, and then drove them home before they started the journey to his villa.

Ji Qingzhou took the time to brush up on the online reviews during the car ride, and found that everyone’s comments on the movie were very good, giving full recognition and high praise to Lian Jingxing’s acting skills. And he dabbled in the light of the movie, although his appearance was small, because he acted next to Lian Jingxing, and was an important reason for the transformation of Lin Luofeng’s character, the critics also mentioned him, stating that his talent was fearsome, he acted next to Lian Jingxing and wasn’t suppressed by him, their scenes together were almost perfect.

“I was wrong, before I thought Ji Qingzhou could only act in idol dramas, after watching “Broken light” I think he is obviously more suitable for this kind of film, ah, as Lin Luoyang, he was literally glowing on screen, I am his brother, I also want to protect him for life!”
“I thought only Lian Jingxing would be very good, but I didn’t expect the whole staff to be so excellent ah! Especially Ji Qingzhou, when the official cast was announced, I was most worried about him, now after watching, Lin Luoyang had to be him ah! His performance was too good, right? His eyes spoke, he didn’t have a single line throughout, but there was no sense of incongruity ah!”
As he was reading, he saw a text from Xiao Qian, “Brother Ji! You should go and see it! You’re second only to Lian Jingxing in terms of popularity in “Broken Light”!
Ji Qingzhou replied to him: I’ve already seen it.
He turned his head in a good mood and said to Chu Cheng, “I have a super good rating this time.”
“When have you gotten a bad evaluation?” Chu Cheng gave him a look, “Besides, you acted very well, otherwise I wouldn’t have praised you so much when we were eating.”
“That’s different, you praise me with a filter, you think I’m good at everything, but when they praise me, it means I’m really good at acting.”
Chu Cheng smiled, “So do you like them praising you or do you prefer when I do it?”
Ji Qingzhou didn’t hesitate, “You.”
He hoped to become a good person in the hearts of others, but he hoped to become a good person in the heart of Chu Cheng, compared to Chu Cheng, others weren’t so important.
Ji Qingzhou smiled and looked out the window, just in the half hour or so he was reading reviews, the surrounding scenery surprisingly changed from rows of modern buildings to flowers and trees.
“The villa is quite far away.” Ji Qingzhou thought about it, “We’ve been driving for more than an hour, right?”
“It’s in the suburbs. My parents figured the environment was good and bought it, but then they don’t really use it, I mostly use it for parties, it’s suitable for a summer barbecue party, it also has a hot spring.”
“But I didn’t bring my swimming trunks.” Ji Qingzhou said, “You didn’t remind me.”
“You and I came out, do you need to bring something? I brought it for you.”
Ji Qingzhou was speechless, then he remembered the first time they went swimming, he didn’t bring anything, so Chu Cheng lent him his unopened swim trunks, but of course, the trunks didn’t come in handy. He looked out of the window, the wind was heavy, making him sleepy, he rolled up the window, leaning against it, and took a nap.
When Ji Qingzhou woke up, the car had stopped, he rubbed his eyes in a daze, everywhere was green as far as his eyes could see.
“Awake?” Chu Cheng looked at him.
Ji Qingzhou nodded, “Where are we?”
“We’re here.” Chu Cheng helped him unbuckle his seat belt, “Get off.”
Ji Qingzhou pushed open the door and curiously looked at the scenery, “Are we in the mountains?”
Chu Cheng laughed and reached out to wrap his arms around him, “This way.”
They walked forward, the more Ji Qingzhou walked, the more he felt that this was a small mountain or at least a higher slope, he looked at the upright trees in front of him, feeling the fresh air as the breeze blew, but it wasn’t cold, Ji Qingzhou looked up at the sky, “It’s so blue.”
“Hmm.” Chu Cheng also looked up, “The sky here is always blue, wait til night, the stars are really bright.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, there’s a room in the villa, the glass windows are made at a tilted angle and can be opened, you can see the stars when you lie down.”
“Then let’s sleep in that room tonight.” Ji Qingzhou was obviously very interested.
Naturally, Chu Cheng agreed, “Okay.”
They didn’t have to walk for long before they saw the villa, looking around, Ji Qingzhou had thought that it would be similar to a farmhouse, he didn’t expect it to be an ancient style building.
“Your family is so rich.” He looked at the ancient building that covered a large area and couldn’t help but sigh, “I feel like I’m in an ancient drama.”
Chu Cheng smiled and kissed him, “Our home isn’t the Grand View Garden. This is also your home.” He looked at Ji Qingzhou and said warmly, “My money is your money, and your money is still your money.”
Ji Qingzhou looked up at him, one after another, what the original owner owed Zhou Chengfeng and his friends had been paid back, the only person left was Chu Cheng, because it was too much, also because every time he mentioned paying back, Chu Cheng exploded, so it hadn’t been returned. He had thought of saving enough money to give it to Chu Cheng at once, but now that they were in a relationship, if he really did, Chu Cheng would certainly be unhappy.
So Ji Qingzhou decided to save the money first, save it for Chu Cheng, and buy a gift or do something else for him in the future.
“No, I’m also making money now, I also have money.”
“So you don’t want my salary card?”
“Do you want to give it to me?” Ji Qingzhou asked rhetorically.
“I want to give it to you.” Chu Cheng thought about it, “I don’t feel its presence much. I grew up without a shortage of money, so sometimes I have no concept of money, but if it’s with you, I know my money in your hands, I also know that you and I are one, so I’ll be more down-to-earth.”
“Then give it to me.” If Chu Cheng wanted to give him, he would temporarily accept it, “When you don’t want to leave it with me one day, I’ll give it back.”
Chu Cheng kissed the corner of his eye, “There won’t be that day.”
Ji Qingzhou smiled and didn’t respond, Chu Cheng pulled him and walked into the villa’s front door.
The design of this place was modeled after ancient mansions, Chu Cheng’s compound was in the northeast, Ji Qingzhou followed him all the way through the corridor courtyard, feeling a little out of place.
However, when he pushed open the door, he didn’t feel it anymore, because the house was decorated with modern furniture, “This isn’t ancient styled at all.”
“It would be too uncomfortable if it was, so the outside is like that, then the inside is comfortable.”
The villa had been cleaned before they came, and fresh fruits, vegetables and others had been prepared, so it could be occupied.
Chu Cheng saw that he was interested in the villa, so he took him around. He couldn’t show Ji Qingzhou his parents’ room, instead he took him on a tour to Chu Xin’s compound and rooms, and told him some interesting stories from his childhood.
The hot spring was built in the garden, it was winter and it was plum blossom season, Ji Qingzhou smelled the fragrance of plum blossoms from afar, and when he got closer, he saw plum blossoms of all colors.
“It’s so beautiful.”
“My mother loves flowers and wanted this garden to bloom all year round, so when she planted flowers here, she chose different seasonal flowers, winter is plum blossoms, there are also some winter chrysanthemums, so it doesn’t look too monotonous in color.”
Chu Cheng pointed to a small wooden house not far from the southeast corner of the garden, “That’s the room where we can see the stars, we can go there to rest at night after soaking in the hot spring.”
Ji Qingzhou nodded.
Chu Cheng led him onward to an enclosed area.
Ji Qingzhou looked at the trees in front of him and asked curiously, “Why is this place fenced off?”
“My money is your money, and your money is still your money.” alhamdulillah brother may you prosper in marriage
Ameen
Chu Cheng, please don’t be any sweeter than this. My heart can’t handle it!
Thank you for this chapter!!
