Oh my god! Why is the boss such a clingy person?
Chapter 156 Coming Out
The atmosphere in the study was originally very relaxed, but as soon as Zhou Cheng came in, the temperature dropped several degrees in an instant.
When Su Qingyan saw Zhou Cheng's expression, he cried for help. How could sending him a bowl of sobering soup be like a heroic sacrifice, while the thing in his hand seemed like poison to kill the king?
Zhou Cheng took the bowl after his father finished drinking. He pondered for a moment, put the bowl on the table, and clenched his fists.
"Dad, actually, when I came back this time, I had something to tell you."
Su Qingyan finally waited for him to speak, and his heart rose to his throat. It would be unrealistic to say that he was not nervous. His whole body seemed to be vibrating with his heartbeat.
"What's the matter?" Father Zhou continued flipping through his masterpiece, seemingly unaware of the seriousness of the matter.
Su Qingyan still held on to the table with his hands, his knuckles turned pale from the exertion. He looked at Zhou Cheng, his eyes full of worry.
"I'm dating someone now, and I'm taking this relationship very seriously."
As soon as Zhou Cheng finished speaking, Zhou's father stopped what he was doing, put the rice paper back on the table, and turned to look at him.
Zhou Cheng felt very uncomfortable with his inquiring gaze, but he did not avoid the burning gaze.
"I never said it because I was afraid you wouldn't accept him."
When Zhou's father heard him say this, he realized that things were definitely not as simple as he thought, but he still didn't say anything, waiting for Zhou Cheng to continue.
"But this time when he came back, I felt that you quite liked him..."
"Zhou Cheng." Zhou's father interrupted him. This time, only Su Qingyan came back with Zhou Cheng. He vaguely understood it in his heart, but didn't want to believe it.
"Yeah." Zhou Cheng stopped obediently.
"Think it over carefully first." Father Zhou looked solemn, with anger already flashing in his eyes.
"I've thought it through. Su Qingyan and I have been dating for a long time—"
"Snapped!"
Before he could finish, Zhou's father slapped him hard in the face.
The slap with full force immediately caused Zhou Cheng's cheek to feel burning pain.
Su Qingyan had imagined the scene many times, but when he really saw Zhou Cheng being beaten, he still felt like his heart was being stabbed by a needle.
"Dad, I know this is hard for you to accept, but I don't want to hide it any longer. I will definitely not get married and have children as you expect, because I don't like girls at all. I-"
"Shut up! Get out!"
Zhou's father swept everything on the table to the ground, and the bowl was smashed into pieces.
Zhou Cheng stood there without moving, and continued speaking:
"Su Qingyan and I came back this time just to tell you about this. Whether you accept it or not, it will not affect the relationship between us."
"Zhou Cheng! You still have the nerve to say that?!"
Father Zhou grabbed Zhou Cheng by the collar and pushed him aside forcefully.
Su Qingyan was horrified. He didn't expect Zhou Cheng to speak so bluntly. Isn't this just adding fuel to the fire?
"Uncle, don't be angry. Zhou Cheng didn't mean that. We didn't come back to quarrel with you..." Su Qingyan hurried over to separate them.
When Zhou's mother heard the quarrel in the study, she rushed over and became anxious when she saw Zhou's father pushing her son.
"Old Zhou, don't do it."
"Look at your good son!" Zhou's father was about to raise his hand to slap Zhou Cheng again, but Cheng Muxi grabbed his arm.
Su Qingyan also stood in front of Zhou Cheng.
"Uncle, if you want to vent your anger, just hit me. Zhou Cheng's previous injury has not yet fully healed."
"Go aside." Zhou Cheng couldn't bear to see Su Qingyan being treated so unfairly, so he pulled him away.
"Kid, what nonsense are you talking about? How could I hit you?" Cheng Muxi started crying again when she heard Su Qingyan's words.
"Did I not beat you enough? That's why you learned these evil ways outside?" Zhou's father picked up the paperweight on the desk and swung it at Zhou Cheng's shoulder.
Su Qingyan saw Zhou's father's action and wanted to rush over to block it, but Zhou Cheng held him down. Zhou Cheng himself had no intention of dodging, and after being hit hard, if he hadn't held Su Qingyan down, he would have almost fallen to the ground.
"Your son committed murder and arson? Why are you beating him like this?" Zhou's mother wiped her tears while pulling Zhou's father, but she was too timid to use too much force.
"He is not my son! You have no shame! Go to whoever family you want to be their son! We don't have people like you in our Zhou family!" Zhou's father was so angry that his body was shaking, but he did not stop what he was doing and continued to beat Zhou Cheng.
Zhou Cheng lowered his head and said nothing. He had expected this reaction from his father. If being beaten could make him calm down, he would accept it. But now it seemed that whatever he said would only add fuel to the fire, so he better just shut up.
When Zhou's father saw how stubborn and silent he was, he became even more furious.
"Why did you stay in Mincheng and not come back? You've been in a big city for so long, what kind of habits have you picked up? Old Xiao asks me every day when I'm going to attend your wedding. If you had come back with Xiao Han, you might have gotten married earlier than him."
When Zhou Cheng heard Xiao Han's name, he didn't dare to say another word. He took the opportunity to glance at Su Qingyan, fearing that he would say something unpleasant again.
"Uncle, sexual orientation is not so easy to change, and Zhou Cheng didn't fall in love with the same sex just because he came to Mincheng." Su Qingyan tried to correct Zhou's father's wrong view.
"This is our family matter, you go out first." Father Zhou controlled his emotions a little and did not say harsh words to Su Qingyan.
"Xiao Su, go wait outside first." Zhou Cheng was afraid that his father would continue to scold Su Qingyan without any reason.
Su Qingyan feels a little regretful now. What's the point of laying so much groundwork before? In the end, Zhou Cheng still got beaten. It would be better to fight him head-on from the beginning.
"I'm not going out." Su Qingyan saw that Zhou Cheng didn't fight back when he was beaten, and his stubborn temper was no longer hidden. He stepped forward and snatched the paperweight from Zhou's father's hand. "You don't feel sorry for him, but someone does."
"You two are trying to piss me off to death today?" Father Zhou said as he sat on the chair and gasped.
"Dad, we want to have a good talk with you." Seeing his father rush over like this, Zhou Cheng put his finger on his wrist, "Xiao Su, go get the medicine box."
Su Qingyan followed Zhou's mother out to find medicine, leaving only the father and son in the study.
"How long have you been with him?" Zhou's father asked him.
"About half a year." Zhou Cheng half-knelt beside his father, with his head down and without standing up.
"Given his family conditions, it won't have any impact if he just plays around. But it's different for you."
It is impossible that Zhou's father doesn't care about his son at all. He is also afraid that Zhou Cheng will be blinded by his emotions.
"We are not just playing around, we will get a marriage certificate and hold a wedding like other couples."
"How long have you known each other? Are you thinking about getting married already?" Zhou's father slapped the armrest hard.
"Dad, calm down and take the medicine later. Your health is important." Zhou Cheng raised his head and held his father's wrist worriedly.
"If you really care about my health, break up with him immediately, get back on track, find a good girl, marry her and have children." Zhou's father shook off his hand.
"It's impossible for me to deceive others for the so-called face. I can't do it." Zhou Cheng stood up again when he heard the hurried footsteps approaching.
