Ji Qingzhou just woke up, he was still a little confused, so he nodded and asked him, “How long did I sleep?”
“Three or four hours, not too long.” Chu Cheng stood up, walked up to him and handed out the cup in his hand. “Here, try the tea I made.”
Ji Qingzhou took the cup, took a sip of it and eagerly praised, “Good.”
“Look how happy you are,” Chu Cheng sat down at the edge of the bed. “You haven’t offered your father any tea yet. Dad served you first.”
Ji Qingzhou immediately handed out his tea, “To Daddy.”
“Borrowing flowers to offer Buddha? Taking my tea to give me?”
Ji Qingzhou smiled, “I’ll make a pot of tea for you another day.”
“That’s more or less the same.” Chu Cheng looked at him. “All right, now that you’re awake, get up and eat. It’s time for dinner.”
Ji Qingzhou nodded and removed the quilt from his body.
Ji Qingzhou changed his clothes and both of them took the elevator to the restaurant downstairs for dinner. Ji Qingzhou, seeing Chu Cheng like this, did not intend to go back and asked, “Am I staying here tonight?”
“Otherwise?”
“Then I’ll have Xiao Qian pick me up in the morning.”
“No,” Chu Cheng said, “I’ll take you there. I’ll sit in your rest area tomorrow and see who dares to play under my nose.”
When Ji Qingzhou heard this, he looked at him. “I suddenly thought of an idiom.”
“What?”
“Fox and Tiger.” Ji Qingzhou held hands and looked at him. “I am like the fox walking behind you now.”
“You are like a fox in front of me.”
Chu Cheng put some food in his plate. “You are my man. I don’t think that you shouldn’t mention me outside. When I should be used to intimidate people, you should intimidate them. When I should come forward, you should call me. I’ll let you be the fox behind me, and you hide at the side. ”
Ji Qingzhou also reciprocated, as he explained, “It’s not the same. You let me go behind you. It’s nice of you, but I can’t walk behind you all my life.”
Ji Qingzhou was very clear about the relationship between them. Chu Cheng was a good man, with good temper and generous, so he didn’t care about his occasional coquetry and playing tricks on him.
However, there was only a one year’s contract between them. A year later, when the contract ended, Chu Cheng would go on to find new people he liked, and he would lose his backer.
Ji Qingzhou didn’t want to rely too much on him, much less on his rights. Otherwise, once Chu Cheng left in a year, he would not be able to adapt to it, and the people he offended this year because he borrowed Chu Cheng’s influence would attack him after his backer was gone.
For Ji Qingzhou, although he had not suffered much, it was not that he couldn’t bear hardships or that he didn’t know that there would be hardships. Newcomers would always be treated unfairly and needed patience. This was the same in any industry, especially in the popular entertainment industry. So many people who had no backers had survived in this circle. Ji Qingzhou did not feel inferior to others, so he could do what others could do.

He felt that Ji Qingzhou lived a sober life and understood that he knew what he was doing and what he wanted. He accepted his identity and even spoke soft words with him in a pettish manner, but he clearly knew the boundaries between them and would not daydream whimsically.
This was very rare, so Chu Cheng was happy, exactly the type of person one could have a crush on, Chu Cheng thought, indeed as expected he was different.
“Then do what you want.” Chu Cheng said.
Ji Qingzhou nodded, they were all smart people, so Ji Qingzhou knew that Chu Cheng’s words were not out of his good temper, but because he also remembered this year’s agreement.
Chu Cheng, in fact, should have been very afraid that he would not abide by the agreement, Ji Qingzhou thought, but fortunately, he was not so ignorant.
He lowered his head and concentrated on eating.
Ji Qingzhou kept in touch with Xiao Qin because he had been filming for a while and could not visit Mother Ji. Chu Cheng went to the hospital twice because of Ji Qingzhou. His mother was in good condition.
Sometimes she would talk to him.
Chu Cheng could talk a lot and sometimes he would make Mother Ji smile from ear to ear.
After hearing this, Ji Qingzhou solemnly said thank you to him.
“There is no need. The biggest reason you are with me is your mother. As our middleman, I naturally have to care about her a little.”
“You are really a good man.”
Chu Cheng was about to refuse, but his eyes lit up and pointed at him.
“Remember, today’s second card.”
Ji Qingzhou unexpectedly said this sentence twice in one day, he hurriedly replied, “Today’s card has been issued, this does not count.”
“Why do you still change the rules of the game without authorization? See if you have this sentence in your rule book.”
“I’ll add it now.” Ji Qingzhou replied stubbornly.
Chu Cheng was shocked,
“Unscrupulous merchant. Baby, is this what daddy taught you?”
“No business isn’t crafty.” Ji Qingzhou replied.
“So you f**ked your dad’s head?”
Ji Qingzhou smiled, his words sounded especially ambiguous.
“What are you laughing at?” Chu Cheng asked him.
Ji Qingzhou shook his head, Chu Cheng did not believe it, he stared at him for a moment, then he understood and pushed Ji Qingzhou over the bed.
“Why are you so dirty?”
Ji Qingzhou, feeling the dangerous position he was in, blinked, “What did you say? I don’t understand.”
“Don’t understand?” Chu Cheng said, and was ready to take off his clothes. Ji Qingzhou hurriedly shouted, “I was wrong. I was wrong. I shouldn't have been driving a small train.”
Chu Cheng shook his head. “I used to think you were a yam, white and raw, but I didn’t think you were an egg after all, white outside and yellow inside.”
Ji Qingzhou denied, “I’m not. I’m not. Don’t talk nonsense.”
“Come on, you are clearly the conductor.”
“I’m just a passenger.”
“Modesty, Zhouzhou.”
“Really, Ah Cheng.”
Chu Cheng laughed, “Who would believe you?”
“Really.” Ji Qingzhou blinked his eyes. “Look at my sincere eyes.”
“I can only see your insincere eyes.”
“That’s because you didn’t look carefully,” Ji Qingzhou said. “You have to look at it twice and look carefully.”
Chu Cheng tapped him on the forehead, “No amount of reading can change the fact that you are the conductor.” He stood up and let go of Ji Qingzhou under him. “Go, take a bath and get ready for bed.”
Ji Qingzhou stood up and went into the bathroom.
The next morning, Chu Cheng drove Ji Qingzhou to the filming location.
He didn’t hurry away. He sat in the rest area and watched Ji Qingzhou act.
He made the deputy director tremble with fear. The deputy director was afraid that an inattentive person might offend the evil spirit and didn’t dare to speak more than necessary.
Chen Jiyuan didn’t come to the set because of his face injury, but Zhang Hui did. He wanted to ask what exactly Chu Cheng meant by what he said to Xiao Qian yesterday.
However, Chu Cheng ignored him, letting Xiao Qian and other crew members drive him away.
Ji Qingzhou was a talented actor who was quick in acting and good at acting. He finished all the scenes in the morning in a short period of time. The two had lunch together. Chu Cheng saw that the cast was at peace and was ready to leave.
Ji Qingzhou paused for a moment when he heard him and said in surprise, “Are you going back?”
“Well,” Chu Cheng looked at him, “There is a meeting and I have to go back.”
When Ji Qingzhou heard this, although he was reluctant, he had no choice but to say, “Then have a good meeting.”
“Why, loathe to part?” Chu Cheng asked as his eyebrows subconsciously furrowed.
Ji Qingzhou nodded generously, “I am reluctant to part with you.”
Chu Cheng smiled and comforted him, “Don’t worry, I can come and visit you on set again in two days.”
“So soon?” Ji Qingzhou was surprised.
Chu Cheng nodded, “There are not many things going on these days. I’m going back this time because this is a regular meeting to be held and it’s not appropriate to skip the meeting. So after the meeting, I can come to see you again if I am not busy. ”
Ji Qingzhou became happy again in an instant.
Chu Cheng looked at the happy blush on his face and thought that it was easy to make him happy. He helped him take some dishes and put them in his bowl.
Ji Qingzhou also reciprocated, which made it a very enjoyable meal.
Chu Cheng just left when Zhou Chengfeng came back. Xiao Qian roughly told Zhou Chengfeng about the incident. Zhou Chengfeng was surprised. However, when he thought about the relationship between the two, he thought it was normal. Only, Zhou Chengfeng felt that he would probably be scolded…
Sure enough, as soon as the phone was connected, Chu Cheng was there with a strange expression, “Hey, isn’t this our agent Zhou, still know how to come back?”
Zhou Chengfeng, who had a headache, pressed his temples and said, “This time it was my fault. I knew clearly what Chen Jiyuan’s character was, so I shouldn’t have left midway. It was my fault to give him a chance. ”
“So has Lian Jingxing’s matter been settled?”
Lian Jingxing was Ji Qingzhou’s senior and another artist of Zhou Chengfeng.
“That’s settled. I took advantage of the meeting with Jingxing and asked him to help me recommend him. After the next season’s <48 Hours of Battle> begins, I will let Ji Qingzhou appear in several episodes. Jingxing is a fixed guest in the show. He has a large fan club and has a strong voice. ”
“That’s more or less the same.” Chu Cheng saw that he still remembered to help Ji Qingzhou talk about resources, which relieved him. “All right, this time, you are wrong, Ji Qingzhou is also wrong. If he had told me earlier, if you hadn’t left, you wouldn’t have had so much trouble, so pay attention to it later. ”
“Yes.”
“Zhou Chengfeng, Ji Qingzhou, how to say, is my person. I will take care of him, but I am not in your industry, so I can’t take care of him well, you have to take care of him. You are also an agent of Xiyu Entertainment, and you still have the trump card of Lian Jingxing in your hand. I am relieved of your ability, but you have to be careful, understand? ”
“I know,” Zhou Chengfeng said. “I signed Ji Qingzhou. I definitely intend to train him well. Don’t worry, Boss Chu.”
Yet another chapter of their sugar relationship xD
so cute so sweet
thanks for the chapter!
I really love their banter 🙂 Thank you so much!
Their interactions are so cute! Hope this filming ends soon to have some of the long awaited bed scenes!!
Thanks for the update
Thank you for translating 🤩💕💕💕
I guess they are still at the interest stage… so i understand why author is holding back the spring nights. Had they consummated, the development of feelings might become skewed… they need to slowly but surely develop affection for each other like this (which shoves dogfood at us) reflecting how close they are without the need of yellow things 😁
I really adore, friends to lovers development, so i’ll drown myself in this slowburn dogfood pile. (Does this count as slowburn?)
I like how Ji Qingzhou is aware of his position as a newbie in that industry. He’s not willing to abuse of Chu Cheng’s inffluence, because It’d be problematic in the future.
I like Chu Cheng is taking good care of Ji Qingzhou’s mom. That’s cute.
Thanks for the chapter!
They! Called! Each! Other! Nick! Names!!!!
Zhouzhou and Ah Cheng goddddddd
I really like their interactions. And really you guys… you’re in love.p stares
Zhouzhou just become instantly happy cuz Chu Cheng will visit him.
The way Zhouzhou just, know that although he has a backer right now but the contract is only one year. Offending people during this time will come and bite him in the back later. Good boy kiss his forehead
Thank you for the chapter❤️
+1 😆
Zhou Zhou and Ah Cheng, let’s walk together hand in hand to get your marriage certificates~~
Thank you for the chapter!
Boss Chu is really a good person…JQZ has lucked out and the original owner was stupid.
Their interactions are so funny.
Thanks for the chapter.
I wonder just when CC will start to regret their arrangement.
Thanks for the great translation ♥️
+1
Thank you very much for the chapter ❤❤❤❤
Boss Chu is so imposing ~!
Thanks for the chapter. 😘
Thank you for the chapter
I feel like our MC is very smart and practical (the new one , of course). And I‘m super surprised and impressed that the ML has been so patient. Although, I’m not really sure exactly how much time has passed so far.
».. exactly the type of person one could have a crush on..« Mark your words CC >3
Thx for the ch (≧▽≦)/
Waaaah! So sweet! Thank you for updating and take care! 🥰
“That’s more or less the same.” should be “That’s more like it.”Thanks for the translation!
HOW ARE THEY NOT DATING. TELL ME. Also my god, they are so cute. Although the idioms are goddamn confusing lol
Let’s goooo
I like how they’re both smart and sensible people and they don’t have any of those annoying monologues like “They clearly had a raising relationship but why does his heart feel like this?” or something like that. I also like how the author makes their relationship go naturally instead of making them fall in love from the get go just because of some intimate actions they did. I have nothing more to say than like like like. :^)
Sweet!!!!! 😍
