    Chapter 44 The refreshing smell of shower gel and grapes Cheng Cheng is in the rental house…

    Cheng Cheng packed up his things in the rental house and happened to meet the landlord when he went out.

    The landlady lives on the first floor. The entire building was demolished by her family. Her children have immigrated abroad. Only she and the boss are unwilling to move. They sit at the door eating melon seeds and basking in the sun when they have nothing to do.

    The landlady looked sad. Seeing Cheng Cheng dragging the box, she was surprised and said, “Xiao Cheng, you don’t want to rent anymore?”

    “It needs to be rented. My wife is sick and I will go to the hospital to accompany him.” Cheng Cheng explained.

    “That’s it. I didn’t expect that you are already married at such a young age. I chatted with Sister Wang next door two days ago to introduce you to someone. She has a daughter of a relative from out of town who is the right age for you. It’s a pity.”

    The landlady sighed again as she spoke: “Oh, nothing goes well in anything I do recently…”

    Cheng Cheng politely expressed concern: “As long as you are healthy, there’s nothing you can do about it.”

    “Yeah, we’re already this age… It’s all my fault that old man at home, he decided to buy some kind of fund, and now he’s done it, and he’s lost hundreds of thousands!” The landlady compared the numbers exaggeratedly, “He doesn’t even dare to come out now, nor does he dare to call his daughters!”

    “Fund?” Cheng Cheng was moved and asked, “What fund?”

    “It’s the fund of Pujiang Shengxing Entertainment!” the landlady said through gritted teeth. “The old man keeps talking in my ears every day, saying that this company has a good future and will definitely make money. But the result? All my money is lost!”

    Shengxing Entertainment?Cheng Cheng’s heart skipped a beat.He had an impression of this name. It was a competitor that Wei Zhi had mentioned to him before!

    He listened calmly to the landlady’s continued complaints, chatted politely for a few more words, looked at the time, and said goodbye in a hurry.

    Before going to bed at night, Cheng Cheng massaged Wei Zhi’s legs and talked about the matter: “The Shengxing Entertainment you told me about before seems to have a problem. Their stocks fell sharply. My landlord bought their fund and lost hundreds of thousands.”

    Wei Zhi raised his eyes and glanced at him with a meaningful expression: “Why do you think the stock price of a thriving entertainment company suddenly plummeted?”

    “Uh…there’s a problem with the capital chain?”

    Wei Zhi curled up the corners of his lips, revealing a smile with unknown meaning.

    Cheng Cheng glanced at it and inexplicably felt that there was something evil in that smile.

    “It’s not just a matter of the capital chain,” Wei Zhi said slowly, “the gambling agreement they signed failed.”

    At the end of the massage, Wei Zhi broke out in a thin sweat and got up to take a shower.

    Cheng Cheng usually rarely paid attention to the gossip in the entertainment industry, but this time he was inexplicably interested.He picked up his phone and searched for news related to Shengxing Entertainment.

    The first item on the homepage is the breaking news.

    Li Haitian, the most commercially valuable director of Shengxing Entertainment, has been exposed to many scandals.The evidence of tax issues is conclusive. In his early years, he made inappropriate remarks related to politics. His personal ethics were even more corrupted. He was even revealed to have a preference for delicate-looking alphas. Several dirty videos were included, which pushed the matter to the forefront.

    The person who broke the news was the well-known paparazzi king in the industry, and he chose to release the complete chain of evidence on the eve of the release of the big movie directed by Li Haitian. He was obviously well prepared.

    Weibo has already exploded, with netizens furious and leaving messages one after another.”If morality is not matched, there will be disaster!” “Is this kind of scum worthy of being a director?” “Support strict investigation!”

    At present, Li Haitian has been controlled by relevant departments, and the case is under further investigation.

    Affected by the Li Haitian incident, Shengxing Entertainment has also been pushed to the forefront of public opinion.Netizens have questioned that Shengxing Entertainment is a place that harbors evil and evil, and Li Haitian is by no means an exception.

    This matter has even been raised to the level of “capital chaos in the entertainment industry”, and the regulatory authorities have officially intervened in the investigation.

    Cheng Cheng had a vague suspicion that this matter must have something to do with Wei Zhi, but if he asked directly, Wei Zhi would definitely not tell him.

    He couldn’t explain why he wanted to know what happened so much. He probably wanted to get closer to Wei Zhi.

    In the dead of night, the two of them were lying on the bed.

    Cheng Cheng turned his back to Wei Zhi, still thinking about this matter, when a cold hand suddenly reached out from behind him and quietly reached into his pajamas.

    Cheng Cheng’s breathing tightened instantly, and his originally relaxed abdominal muscles subconsciously exerted force.Wei Zhi’s fingers gently circled his soft abdominal muscles, bringing a slightly cool temperature that made him shiver.

    He grabbed the disruptive hand and lowered his voice: “Don’t make trouble, you can’t do it now.”

    The doctor stipulated that Wei Zhi should not do anything that would make him emotional. That kind of thing would definitely make his heart beat faster.

    Wei Zhi hugged Cheng Cheng’s waist from behind, buried his head in the back of Cheng Cheng’s neck and took a deep breath, smelling of the refreshing scent of shower gel and grapes.

    He felt the soft muscles and warm body temperature, and sighed comfortably.

    “I really want to…”

    “No.” Cheng Cheng refused and pulled the hand out of his clothes.

    “…But I can’t sleep like this.”

    “You will always fall asleep if you close your eyes. You can count sheep in your mind.”

    Wei Zhi’s palms were restless again: “But I miss you so much.”

    “Think…” What? Cheng Cheng didn’t think so. Before he could ask, he felt a sour sting first.

    His face turned red instantly and his breathing became ragged.

    The slightly cold hand was unkind, and he had no power to fight back.

    Not long after, the green grapes ripened into purple grapes. They were peeled off and tasted carefully, trembling unsteadily.

    The two thin balls of dough were turned over and over by the pastry chef’s experienced skills. The poor little dough was dizzy, as if it had been steamed, and it was a circle bigger than before steaming.

    Cheng Cheng blushed in the dark: “Be gentle…”

    “Xiao Cheng, turn around and let me kiss you, okay?” The cool breath of mint sprayed on the back of his neck with the warmth of your body.

    “No…”

    “Why do you keep rejecting me today?” Wei Zhi was displeased.

    When Cheng Cheng didn’t answer, he added, “I can’t move my legs. You can refuse in any way…”

    Cheng Cheng couldn’t bear it anymore and had to turn around: “Stop talking.”

    Wei Zhi couldn’t help but feel happy. He leaned into Cheng Cheng’s arms affectionately and kissed his cheek from time to time.

    Cheng Cheng closed his eyes helplessly, forget it and just sleep like this.

    But something was wrong when he fell asleep. Cheng Cheng always felt that his chest was wet and cool, as if there was a small snake crawling around.

    He shrunk his legs, opened his eyes in confusion, and tried to struggle to get up, but his whole body collapsed under the pressure.

    Suddenly, he reacted.

    “What are you doing!” Cheng Cheng sat up suddenly, pulled down his clothes, and covered himself with the quilt in shame and annoyance.

    “I can’t sleep.” Wei Zhi opened his eyes innocently.

    Cheng Cheng was speechless: “Can you just… do this if you can’t sleep!”

    What are you doing?

    What’s the point of being dry and shriveled…

    Wei Zhi felt very cold, and he shrank his neck: “Xiaocheng, can you lie down first? I’m so cold.”

    “Don’t lick me again!” Cheng Cheng wrapped himself tightly and lay down again with his back to Wei Zhi.

    Wei Zhi couldn’t think of any reason to ask Cheng Cheng to turn around, so he just hugged Cheng Cheng and fell asleep with regret.

    In the middle of the night, Cheng Cheng was woken up by the heat. He licked his lips and felt very thirsty.

    Wei Zhi was afraid of the cold, so the air conditioner in the room was turned on high to prevent his body, hands and feet from getting cold.

    Cheng Cheng opened his eyes drowsily, only to realize that he was being held by Wei Zhi. The two of them were still sleeping facing each other, and he was locked in Wei Zhi’s arms.

    After opening his eyes, Cheng Cheng was confused and frightened.

    He thought he was dreaming, so he touched Wei Zhi’s face stupidly: “Are you still awake? Why are you keeping your eyes open?”

    Ever since anorexia caught up with him again, Wei Zhi had a hard time falling asleep and always relied on sleeping pills or melatonin. Cheng Cheng was here today, so he didn’t take it in front of Cheng Cheng.

    “It’s okay, just go to sleep.”

    Cheng Cheng turned over and sat up: “I’m going to drink some water. It’s too hot.”

    “I’ll turn down the air conditioner.” Wei Zhi sat up, holding on to the armrest.

    “No, otherwise you will be very cold. I’ll just drink some cold water.”

    Wei Zhi felt guilty watching Cheng Cheng drink water.

    Cheng Cheng was uncomfortable sleeping next to him, perhaps not as comfortable as in his small rental house.

    After turning off the lights again, Cheng Cheng suddenly approached Wei Zhi, lifted up his clothes, straightened his chest, and pressed the tip of his nose into his arms: “Go to sleep.”

    Wei Zhi was stunned for a moment, startled by the sudden joy, and his lips accidentally brushed against the red tip: “Xiao Cheng…”

    “Go to sleep, stop talking, I’m so sleepy…”

    Wei Zhi subconsciously took the food that was served to him and took it into his mouth. The familiar smell and temperature were on the tip of his nose. He closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep.

    .

    Cheng Cheng held up a dark blue tie with white polka dots in his left hand, and held a silver-gray dark pattern printed tie in his right hand. He waved it gently in front of Wei Zhi’s eyes: “Which one do you think suits you better?”

    Wei Zhi hadn’t worn a suit for a long time and was a little unaccustomed to it. He tugged on his collar and said, “Xiao Cheng, you can actually dress more casually.”

    “I can, but you can’t,” Cheng Cheng helped him choose the one with polka dots. “Don’t you want to adopt Qiu Yao? You must leave a good impression on him as stable and reliable.”

    Wei Zhi had just finished tying his tie in front of the mirror when the ward door was gently pushed open.

    Ji Ziheng walked in, with a just right smile on his face, and glanced at the two of them: “Are you ready?”

    “Zi Heng, why is it you?” Wei Zhi asked in surprise, “Where is Xiao He?”

    “I told him that I would pick him up,” Ji Ziheng walked over and glanced around the ward naturally, “This is a big deal today, and I have to see you off in person. After so many times of information, I haven’t seen the child named Qiu Yao, and I’m a little curious. Xiaocheng, please take Wei Zhi’s bag.”

    Cheng Cheng stared at Ji Ziheng’s face, feeling uncomfortable in his heart.

    The unpleasantness of the conversation between the two that day was still vivid in my mind. This man was able to pretend as if nothing had happened, and his acting skills were superb.

    “Wait a minute,” Wei Zhi stopped Cheng Cheng who was about to get the bag, and then smiled at Ji Ziheng, his tone gentle but unquestionable, “Since you took the initiative to take over Xiao He’s job, I’ll trouble you to get the bag.”

    After saying that, he turned to look at Cheng Cheng: “Xiao Cheng, come here and push me away.”

    Along the way, there was an eerie silence.

    Cheng Cheng didn’t want to take the initiative to speak, so he simply turned his head and looked out the window, letting the passing street scene blur into a blur of light and shadow in his eyes.

    He could clearly feel that under the gentle smile on Ji Ziheng’s face, there was an unnoticeable unfriendliness. What kind of good person could be the person who could instigate his friend to divorce?

    Wei Zhi gently held Cheng Cheng’s hand on his lap, feeling a warm touch on his fingertips.

    He took the initiative to break the silence: “Xiao Cheng, you and Ji Ziheng have already met, right? He is a friend I met in the orphanage. He is now a lawyer. You asked him for help last time when you reported Xiao Cheng.”

    Cheng Cheng remembered what happened last time and frowned slightly: “I remember. I gave him two loaves of bread last time.”

    He paused and glanced across the gap in the seat at Ji Ziheng who was driving in the front seat. His tone was a bit colder, “That was the day you asked him to come and tell me about the divorce, right?”

    Wei Zhi’s hand paused and his fingertips tightened slightly: “I’m sorry, Xiaocheng. I didn’t consider that matter.”

    “You feel that you don’t have long to live, and you are afraid that I will become a widow at a young age, so you are in a hurry to divorce me, right?” Cheng Cheng interrupted, looking straight at Wei Zhi, with a subtle tremor in his voice, “Did this ‘good friend’ of yours come up with this idea?”

    Cheng Cheng has always been gentle and rarely shows such obvious hostility towards others.

    Wei Zhi was stunned for a moment, looking at him blankly, then he seemed to suddenly figure out something, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he quietly approached Cheng Cheng: “Xiao Cheng, are you jealous?”

    The tips of Cheng Cheng’s ears turned red, and he pretended to be calm: “Who is jealous? I just think that inciting others to divorce is very undesirable!”

    Wei Zhi chuckled twice: “Okay, I’m not jealous. If you don’t like him, I won’t see him in the future. If I have anything to do, I will only contact him via WeChat.”

    Ji Ziheng, who was in the front row, finally couldn’t help but speak, his tone full of speechlessness: “Can you two pay more attention? Do you think I am deaf?”

    Wei Zhi and Cheng Cheng looked at each other and tacitly agreed not to answer Cheng Cheng’s words.

    Ji Ziheng couldn’t help it anymore: “Don’t I not exist?”

    Cheng Cheng sat up straight and took this opportunity to express all the resentment he had been holding in his heart for the past few days: “Lawyer Ji, I sent you a message before asking which hospital Wei Zhi is in. Why didn’t you reply to me?”

    Ji Ziheng’s hand on the steering wheel tightened, and his tone sounded very innocent: “Ask Wei Zhi, he didn’t allow us to tell him. Ask Secretary He if he didn’t tell you either? At that time, he was so determined to sever ties with you that he couldn’t hold back ten cows!”

    “No one can stop him from whatever he wants to do. The doctor doesn’t let him touch electronic products, but he still takes care of him. The doctor advises him to eat something, but he won’t even take a sip of water. What can we do!”

    Cheng Cheng lowered his eyes. Wei Zhi deliberately didn’t send him a message. Of course he knew.But at that time, the two of them had just finished their quarrel, and whoever took the initiative to contact them seemed to lose. He had no intention of actively contacting the other party.

    When Wei Zhi saw that Cheng Cheng had been silent, his face darkened, and he felt panicked.

    He squeezed Cheng Cheng’s hand gently and said in a flattering voice: “Xiao Cheng, I didn’t mean not to tell you. At that time, I really thought that I… wouldn’t live long.”

    “Don’t talk nonsense!” Cheng Cheng raised his head suddenly and covered his mouth with his hand, “Don’t say such things.”

    In fact, he wasn’t angry. If he was angry, he would be angry at himself.

    That day at the hot spring hotel, why was he so determined to leave Wei Zhi behind?

    If he had been with Wei Zhi from the beginning, Wei Zhi’s anorexia would not have been so severe, and Wei Zhi would not have suffered from epilepsy again.
