    Chapter 49 I’ll give you two small mint plants “Happy Bean and Pistachio” Cheng…

    As soon as Cheng Cheng opened the door of 1102, he was hugged by Aunt Lan with tears in her eyes.

    “Xiao Cheng, you kid, you didn’t even tell me when you and Mr. Wei were together!” Aunt Lan patted his back excitedly, “Mr. Wei told me as soon as I came back. I wish you happiness.”

    Cheng Cheng’s heart was heavy, and he suddenly understood that Wei Zhi really wanted to live a good life with him.

    Not only did he tell Aunt Lan and He Rui, the two closest people, he also asked him a few days ago if he wanted to announce their relationship in the company.

    But he didn’t want to just be a “lady boss” who was dependent on Wei Zhi. That would be too useless.He wanted to rely on his own efforts to stand where he could reach Wei Zhi, hold hands with him, and run towards a better life together.

    Cheng Cheng hugged Aunt Lan back hard, and said with warmth in his heart: “Thank you, Aunt Lan! It happened not long ago, and I didn’t tell you before it was completely settled.”

    Aunt Lan let go of him with a smile, took his hand and looked up and down. At the first glance, he felt that Cheng Cheng was a good boy, who worked quickly and diligently, and had a careful heart, like water flowing into the heart.

    Wei Zhi was always by her side. Even though he had a smile on his face, his heart was as hard as a lump of dirt. Now that the two of them have just turned into water, they will definitely be harmonious and beautiful together.

    “Are you hungry? Whatever you want to eat, Aunt Lan will make it for you.”

    “No need to bother, I came after lunch.”

    Cheng Cheng asked the movers to move several large bags into the room, and handed them a few bottles of mineral water: “Thank you for your hard work. I can just pack these small things myself.”

    After the workers left, Cheng Cheng began to pack his things.

    He carried the quilt to the balcony to dry, then removed the three-piece suit from the bed and put it in the washing machine. The unused quilt was folded neatly and put away in the closet.

    At that time, he thought he would live in that small house for a long time. The heating in the old house was not very good, so he reluctantly bought three sets of quilts, one thin and two thick.

    After Cheng Cheng packed up, he went to the second floor to study.

    Wei Zhi’s study is very large. One side is connected to the master bedroom and the other side is connected to the dressing room. It has excellent lighting.

    Next to the big desk, a smaller table and a swivel chair have been set up. There is also a lamp on the table, which is exactly the same as the one on Wei Zhi’s big desk, sitting quietly on the table.

    Cheng Cheng suddenly thought of what Xu Zhiping said, “Whether a person loves someone or not does not depend on his words of love or dislike, but depends on the other person’s actions.”

    Is Wei Zhi expressing his love in action?

    Walking to the desk and sitting down, he lightly touched the switch of the desk lamp with his fingertips. The warm yellow light instantly lit up and softly sprinkled on the table.

    Cheng Cheng felt warm all over, and the warmth from the floor rushed from the soles of his feet to his chest.

    .

    In the evening, when Wei Zhi came home, it was almost eleven o’clock. Cheng Cheng cooked simple tomato and egg noodles. The juice was thick and hung on the noodles. The hot vegetables were garnished on the side. He also took out the shrimps that had been grilled in advance and spread them out. Just looking at them made people’s mouths move.

    No matter what dish you are cooking, it must be delicious and delicious, especially the first “color”. Appetizing dishes at first sight can make people enjoy the dish in the best mood.

    Wei Zhi’s expression was a little dark, but he relaxed a little after seeing Cheng Cheng. While eating noodles, he subconsciously reached out and held Cheng Cheng’s hand on the edge of the table. His fingertips were slightly cold and he clenched it tightly.

    He swallowed the noodles, picked up the green vegetables, and chewed slowly. He had no appetite at all, but he didn’t want to waste a little bit of the food Cheng Cheng made.

    “Xiaocheng, are there any questions you don’t know today? Do you want me to tell you about them?”

    Cheng Cheng observed his face and expected that something unpleasant must have happened today.

    “No, I’ve gone through the analysis and review of all the questions I got wrong,” he squeezed Wei Zhi’s fingers, “What did you do in the company today?”

    Wei Zhi’s hand tightened suddenly, his expression suddenly became serious, and his tone was unquestionable: “Xiao Cheng, if Tan Lou comes to see you these days, don’t see him or chat with him.”

    Cheng Cheng didn’t ask any more questions and immediately sat up straight: “I’ll block him now.”

    As he spoke, he took out his cell phone, clicked on the contact under Wei Zhi’s nose, operated his fingers quickly, and turned the cell phone screen towards him in the next second.

    “I’ve blocked you, can you talk now?”

    Seeing the clear “blacked out”, Wei Zhi’s tense nerves relaxed slightly.

    Thinking of the group of people who broke into the company to cause trouble during the day, a chill instantly filled his eyes, and his tone was as cold as ice: “Shengxing Entertainment is rotten internally. If something goes wrong, it has the nerve to put a shit basin on my head.”

    Cheng Cheng heard Wei Zhi swearing for the first time, and it was related to Shengxing Entertainment, so he became even more curious: “What’s going on?”

    “The stock of Shengxing Entertainment has plummeted recently,” Wei Zhi explained with a sneer. “Because we are competing for a project with them, we suspected that it was me.”

    Cheng Cheng didn’t care about Shengxing Entertainment, but he saw the flash of resentment in Wei Zhi’s eyes.

    He leaned forward and looked at Wei Zhi seriously: “Brother Wei, why do you have such a big opinion against Shengxing Entertainment? There should be many entertainment companies in Pujiang, and you seem to often mention Shengxing Entertainment.”

    Wei Zhi raised his eyes and looked into his clear eyes, gently rubbed his knuckles with his fingertips, and said slowly: “Now all companies are competing for government creative planning projects. In order to win, they use illegal means to inquire about our quotations and engage in malicious competition. This is not the first time, it is their usual style, but this time they even dare to tamper with government projects, which is too rampant.”

    “I see, no wonder you hate Shengxing Entertainment so much,” Cheng Cheng suddenly realized, “Last time I saw the news that their great director was under investigation and has been arrested now.”

    The chopsticks Wei Zhi held tightened suddenly, his knuckles turned white, and his heart suddenly tightened, almost beating out of his chest.

    He suppressed the surging emotions, took a bite of shrimp, and said in a deliberately calm tone: “Really? The entertainment industry is a mixed bag, so he probably deserves it.”

    Cheng Cheng didn’t notice anything strange about him, and just sighed softly, with a bit of unbearable tone.

    “Well, I read on the news that the director also played tricks on many young alphas. Those alphas were very delicate-looking, but they were tortured into disgrace by him. The media blocked their faces, but just by looking at the exposed arms and legs, you can tell that their health is not good.”

    Wei Zhi’s eyelashes trembled, he lowered his eyes and forced himself to swallow the shrimp in his mouth.

    He took out a tissue and wiped his mouth. His voice was low and deep, with irrepressible anger: “Li Haitian should be sentenced to death.”

    “Huh?” Cheng Cheng blinked, with confusion on his face, “I didn’t say the director’s name. Brother Wei, have you ever had contact with him in the entertainment industry before?”

    “No!” Wei Zhi quickly lowered his voice, with an imperceptible panic in his tone, “It’s just… I’ve heard some rumors before, and I know his name.”

    “Fortunately, you didn’t meet him.” Cheng Cheng nodded without thinking too much, and then moved closer, with bright eyes and curiosity, “Then do you still know a lot of gossip in the entertainment industry? Tell me about it!”

    “I don’t know.” Wei Zhi stretched out his hand and gently pushed away his leaning head. His fingertips touched the soft top of his hair, and his tone was softer. “When I was in the industry, I only wanted to make money by filming and never interfered with the private lives of those stars.”

    What he didn’t say was that he didn’t want Cheng Cheng to be exposed to that dirty circle at all, even if he just heard some gossip.

    It was a quagmire that he had fought so hard to escape from, and Cheng Cheng would never be allowed to step into it.

    “Brother Wei is a white lotus that emerges from the mud but remains unstained!”

    Wei Zhi frowned slightly. The first half of the sentence was good, but the second half sounded a bit strange.

    Cheng Cheng pushed the bowl in front of Wei Zhi: “Eat quickly. I will eat at least half of it today. I will have a surprise for you then.”

    Wei Zhi was very interested and raised his eyebrows, as if he meant something: “What’s the surprise?”

    “You’re so perverted!” Cheng Cheng stood up and put his hands on his hips, “I won’t say anything, it’s not what you think!”

    “Oh.” Wei Zhi withdrew his gaze, slowly picked up a chopstick and spoke in a calm tone, as if he had lost interest.

    Cheng Chengcheng became anxious: “What do you mean? If it’s not that kind of thing, you wouldn’t be interested? Brother Wei, you weren’t like this before!”

    “What was I like before?” Wei Zhi swallowed the noodles and looked at him meaningfully.

    “Before…”

    In the past, Wei Zhi was gentle, polite, and full of wisdom, facing everything in an orderly manner…

    Of course, he also likes the current Wei Zhi, who is real, lively, clingy, a bit sultry, and recently also anxious and lustful, always thinking about doing that kind of thing…

    Cheng Cheng couldn’t answer. He liked every aspect of Wei Zhi and the gentleness in his eyes when he looked at him.

    Wei Zhi smiled: “Puppies who can’t answer will be punished at night.”

    “Who is the puppy!” Cheng Cheng retorted.

    Wei Zhi looked at him thoughtfully: “Xiaocheng, you were not like this before. You would blush and ask me to touch your head… Alas, there is no chance now.”

    Cheng Cheng couldn’t defeat him, but when he saw him, he even beat him up and said angrily: “Stop wondering what the surprise is, just go to sleep!”

    At night, Cheng Cheng lay on the bed. He originally wanted to wait for Wei Zhi to take a shower before having a few words with him, but he didn’t get a good rest the day before. Today was the day and he had been busy with moving and studying for a long time.

    The sleepiness was overwhelming, and before Wei Zhi came out, he had already fallen asleep.

    Wei Zhi came out after blow-drying his hair and saw the figure curled up on the bed.

    He slowly slid to the bedside, touched Cheng Cheng’s cheek lovingly, and then slid to the window and gently opened a crack. On the window sill, two small mint plants curled up in flower pots with their leaves curled up.

    He stretched out his fingertips, lightly touched the tips of the mint leaves, and quietly released a trace of his own pheromones, as if to say hello to these two little things.

    When his eyes moved down, he caught a glimpse of a small piece of paper pressed under the flowerpot, with a little white edge exposed.

    Wei Zhi took out the note and saw the writing on it clearly through the moonlight outside the window. It was written one by one by Cheng Cheng.

    [Brother Wei, I originally wanted to buy mint from the flower and bird market today, but I found these two plants that were about to be thrown away by the boss, so I picked them up.From now on, they will be our biological babies. I will name one of them “Happy Bean”. I hope the grass will be happy. You can name the other one^ – ^]

    Wei Zhi rolled his eyes and smiled involuntarily, with a gentle smile filling his eyes.

    He could imagine Cheng Cheng squatting in the corner of the flower and bird market, staring at the two little mint plants struggling with their names.

    He thought for a moment, took out a pen from the drawer, and wrote lightly on the back of the note: [The other plant is called “Pistachio”^^]

    .

    The next morning, when Cheng Cheng woke up, the place next to him was already cold. Wei Zhi should have left for the company long ago.

    He rubbed his eyes and immediately thought of the mint on the windowsill. He ran over in slippers, but first saw the note placed next to the flowerpot.

    It was the one he wrote yesterday, with a line of sharp yet gentle handwriting on the back.

    “Pistachio…” Cheng Cheng muttered softly and couldn’t help but raise the corners of his mouth.

    He thought Wei Zhi would think this little trick was childish, but he didn’t expect to actually give Mint a name seriously.

    Cheng Cheng narrowed his eyes happily, holding the small piece of paper and looking at it again and again before carefully putting it into his notebook, full of energy.

    After washing and going downstairs, Cheng Cheng moved “Happy Beans” and “Pistachios” to the large balcony, picked up a watering can and poured some water on them.

    The early morning sunshine softly shines on the leaves, reflecting the twinkling light, and the two small mint plants seem to stretch a little.

    He took a big bun steamed by Aunt Lan from the dining table, moved a small bench and sat on the balcony, gnawing on the bun and looking at his little mint with pleasure, his whole body wrapped in the warm sunshine.

    Aunt Lan came out of the kitchen with a basin in her hand. Seeing his appearance, she couldn’t help but smile: “Xiao Cheng, these mints love the sun, but the sun at noon is too strong. Remember to move them in then to prevent them from getting burned.”

    “Okay Aunt Lan!” Cheng Cheng took a big bite of the bun and said vaguely, “I also bought fertilizer online. When the fertilizer arrives, I will give them some fertilizer and they will definitely grow better!”

    After breakfast, Cheng Cheng helped Aunt Lan clean up as usual. One of them mopped the floor on the second floor, and the other wiped the table on the first floor, chatting across the stairs.

    “Aunt Lan, I heard you say that your wife was ill last time. Is he feeling better now?”

    “It’s almost a stroke. It’s an old problem of his, and it can’t be cured for a while. The doctor said he must quit smoking and drinking. Who told him not to listen to his advice? He just drank, and then he relapsed!”

    Cheng Cheng was mopping the floor on the second floor and responded loudly to Aunt Lan on the first floor: “You have to watch more carefully. He can’t be allowed to touch these irritating things again. It’s best to have someone watching.”

    Aunt Lan was silent for a moment, then raised her head to look at Cheng Cheng who was dragging the stairs, and said with a bit of sadness: “Xiao Cheng, I will be almost fifty-five after the New Year, and my old man is also sixty-one. It’s time to retire and enjoy peace and quiet.”

    Cheng Cheng stopped mopping the floor, as if he realized what Aunt Lan wanted to say.

    “The children have grown up and have their own families, so I don’t need to worry about it anymore.” Aunt Lan continued to ramble, “They can’t stay with me forever. The one I want to live with in the future is still my wife. In the past few decades, I have worked for various employers, and the days I spent with him in a down-to-earth manner are pitiful. Now… it’s time to go back and spend time with him.”

    Cheng Cheng clenched the mop and looked at Aunt Lan: “You are not old yet.”

    “I’m old, I can’t bear to be old.” Aunt Lan sighed, her tone full of exhaustion, “I used to be able to drag this house up and down three times by myself, but now I’m so tired that I can’t straighten my back after just one drag.”

    She paused and her tone softened, “Mr. Wei is a good man. He has never resigned from me all these years. Even if I go back to my hometown to take care of the old man, he will still pay me my salary. I will remember this feeling. When Mr. Wei just fell ill, I was really worried about him, but fortunately, now he is no longer alone against those terrible people and diseases.”

    “A scary person?” Cheng Cheng asked doubtfully, what does a scary person mean?

    Aunt Lan sighed, with a little hesitation in her eyes, and finally just said vaguely: “I have followed Mr. Wei to take care of the family since he first entered the industry. There are some things… I don’t want to talk about. During his days in the entertainment industry, he encountered some bad things. He didn’t tell you, maybe because he wanted to bury those wounds and didn’t want you to worry.”

    After saying that, Aunt Lan kept silent and just made some random gossip.

    Cheng Cheng was stunned for a while, thinking about the wound that Wei Zhi didn’t want to talk about. What kind of past was hidden behind it?

    After cleaning the second and third floors, he started studying. He listened to English in his headphones, but he couldn’t concentrate.

    He looked out the window and saw cotton-white clouds floating in the light blue sky. The warm winter sun was shining on the treetops, and little birds were huddled on the treetops and taking a nap.

    His eyes drifted into the distance, and he couldn’t help but wonder what Wei Zhi was doing now.

    It’s a nice day today. Wei Zhi’s rehabilitation will start again tonight and he should be back early.

    As his thoughts gradually drifted away, Cheng Cheng thought that it was also on such a good day when he was kicked out of his grandmother’s house.

    At that time, my mother’s death was less than a month old. Her body had been burned long ago, but it had not yet been buried. My uncles were already watching her.

    Finally, my brother-in-law couldn’t help it anymore, so he invited some vicious bachelor alphas from the factory to come to his door, pointing at his nose and threatening him, saying that if he didn’t move out quickly, his mother’s ashes would not be allowed into the ancestral grave.

    Cheng Cheng had to agree, because it was his mother’s wish to be buried with his grandmother.

    He had no choice but to nod in agreement.

    Because it was my mother’s repeated wish to be buried with my grandmother before she died.

    As for her grandparents, they believed from beginning to end that it was her mother who killed her father, and they stubbornly refused to let her be buried with her father.

    Fortunately, her mother never forced her to be buried with her father. What she missed most before she died was her mother, and she wanted her grandmother to “come and take her home.”

    Suddenly, a rapid ringing interrupted Cheng Cheng’s thoughts.

    He came back to his senses and hurriedly answered the phone. After hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, his face instantly turned pale.

    He picked up his phone and jacket and ran downstairs, the door slamming shut behind him.

    “Aunt Lan! I have to go out for an urgent matter and may have to come back later!” His voice was obviously panicked, and he had already rushed out the door.
