Traitor

Liu Hengche's father, Liu Yuanxi's [-]th birthday came in December. Originally, Liu Hengche wanted to bring Zhou Yuanzhi home to celebrate the old man's birthday, but after a temporary job, he had to pack his luggage and fly to a distant place. Yuanzhi delivered the gift for him, and said that he would call home to celebrate his birthday, so Zhou Yuanzhi could only take the two gifts from him and Liu Hengche to Liu's house alone.

Zhou Yuanzhi was actually very afraid of the elders of the Liu family, although he had met them twice before.The two old people treated him as Liu Hengche's good brother and were very kind to him. Liu's mother also thanked Zhou Yuanzhi several times for sending charcoal in the snow when Liu Hengche was in the most difficult time, and said that it was Liu Hengche who met him. Heng Che's blessing.On the surface he smiled, but in his heart he was terribly afraid and guilty.

Originally a normal young man with a normal sexual orientation, but because he embarked on that road that is difficult for the world to understand, Zhou Yuanzhi sometimes felt that he was really a complete jerk!

He stood downstairs of Liu's house, took a few deep breaths, and then dared to step into the old corridor with his chest out.

Liu's father's health has improved a lot now, but because he doesn't like extravagance and waste, even if he celebrates his [-]th birthday, he just asks Liu's mother to cook and eat with his family.When Zhou Yuanzhi came in, Mother Liu was setting the table and chopsticks. Seeing him coming in, she hurriedly greeted him warmly.

"Xiao Zhou, you are here."

Zhou Yuanzhi hurriedly bowed respectfully, and handed the gift in his hand to Mama Liu: "Auntie, this is a gift from Ah Che, and this is mine. I wish you and uncle good health and happy every day!"

Liu's mother smiled kindly: "Really, you came here as soon as you came, what are you going to buy! Ah Che is a real kid, how can I make you spend money?" She took the present from Zhou Yuanzhi's hand and looked through it, "Oh, this woolen sweater is so nice. How did you know that I like this color the most? It's really hard for you to be considerate." She said, looking at Liu's father standing beside her, "Have you thanked Xiao Zhou for your share?"

Liu's father glanced at her dissatisfied: "Do you still need to say?"

The childish tone almost made Zhou Yuanzhi laugh out loud.Sure enough, Liu Hengche's temper is more like Liu's father. He looks fierce and stable on weekdays, but in fact, he is a big kid who can't grow up, mischievous and difficult to deal with.

Father Liu took the two gifts seriously, and patted Zhou Yuanzhi on the shoulder: "Xiao Zhou, come to my room and have a look at my two pots of Clivia. They really bloomed after I did what you said last time."

Father Liu liked to play with flowers and plants after he retired. Zhou Yuanzhi was somewhat familiar with plants because his hometown was in the mountains. I will also call to discuss with him about raising flowers and plants.

"You, Xiao Zhou is here as a guest, not to give you lessons."

Liu's father was even more dissatisfied, and glared at Liu's mother: "Xiao Zhou is one of his own, so he is not here to be a guest, you go cook your meal."

Zhou Yuanzhi was taken aback, thinking that because of him, the two elders would be upset, but Liu's mother just smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, I'll call you when the meal is ready." Only then did I know that this was the usual habit of the two of them. I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.He originally wanted to go to the kitchen to help Liu's mother, but Liu's father pressed his shoulders and escorted him into the room.The two of them chatted in the room for more than half an hour, when they suddenly heard the sound of the door opening outside, and Mother Liu seemed to be talking to someone.After a while, Mother Liu looked around the door, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't say it in front of Zhou Yuanzhi.

Liu's father, however, seemed to know everything well, and asked without raising his head, "He's here?"

Mother Liu looked a little embarrassed, Zhou Yuanzhi quickly stood up knowingly: "I..." After saying a word, Father Liu glanced at him and said coldly: "Sit down." He had to sit down again .

"Old man..." Liu's mother was a little anxious, "After all, he is here to celebrate your birthday, so you can't let him in?" Sitting on pins and needles between the two.

"Tell him to go, I don't have a son like him who can kill his own brother!" Liu's father said bluntly, "Are you going to drive him away? If you don't, I will!" He stood up abruptly, Zhou Yuanzhi was so scared that he also stood up reflexively and stood in front of Liu's father.

"Why, you want to make me angry too?" Father Liu asked sternly.

"I..." Zhou Yuanzhi retreated half a step guiltily

Mother Liu stomped her feet: "Okay, I'll just let him go." She turned and walked out.

"Throw out his stuff too, I don't want it!" Father Liu added angrily from behind, pointing at Zhou Yuanzhi, "You, sit down." Zhou Yuanzhi had to sit down obediently again, but was shocked in his heart.He thought that Liu Hengpei's becoming an artist would make Liu's father unhappy, because Liu Hengche once said that because of his entry into the showbiz, Liu's father even severed his father-son relationship with him and refused to let him in for six years. He was framed by others until his reputation was ruined.But what shocked him even more was the sentence: "I don't have a son like him who can kill his own brother."

What did Liu Hengpei hurt Liu Hengche?Could it be that thing three years ago?

Zhou Yuanzhi later speculated about Liu Hengpei's role in the Lanyu Road incident three years ago, guessing that he might have a certain degree of participation in that incident, but he never thought that Liu Hengche was ruined by Liu Hengpei of.He didn't know whether this was a misunderstanding by Liu's father or whether it was true.He doesn't have a good impression of Liu Hengpei now, but he still can't connect him with that kind of despicable person, so he feels extremely conflicted.

"I made you laugh." Liu's father dropped the scissors and sighed, "If you don't mention that bastard, I lose my interest." He stood up, "Let's go watch TV." He said with his hands behind his back After walking out, Zhou Yuanzhi had no choice but to follow.

It was time for entertainment programs to be broadcast on the TV station. Father Liu tuned to the entertainment station, and it happened that there was a private chat of celebrities hosted by the big sister Tou Wenyue on the TV. Liu Hengche sat on the stage and answered the other party's questions one by one with ease.Father Liu put the remote control aside, and concentrated on watching the program.

Thoughts on filming "Fission", plans for the future, feelings during the three-year dormant period... The sound effects on the scene are just right, humorous when it should be funny, and heavy when it should be heavy. Some viewers listened to Liu Hengche saying that after being wronged Hearing his thoughts, he could cry.

"At that time, I felt like the sky had collapsed." Liu Hengche said, pursing his lips unconsciously, "But it was the first time I knew that there were so many things I didn't know or even remember. People care about me so much and are willing to do their best to help me, that kind of feeling is like..." He paused slightly, "I'm sorry." After calming down for a while, he continued, "It's like a person who is about to drown After all, I will be able to climb ashore one day. Therefore, Liu Hengche today is only able to exist because of many people who have helped me." He stood up and bowed deeply and for a long time to the screen. He bowed, "Thank you!" When he raised his head, his eye sockets were already slightly red, and there was thunderous applause at the scene, and many girls and even boys had red eye sockets.

"Did you ever hate it?"

"Yes, at the worst time, my mentality was particularly bad, and I gave up on myself, thinking that I would never act again. Thanks to one person, I was able to make up my mind again and go back to this path."

A string of playful notes sounded at the scene.

"Men and women?" Wen Yue asked with a smile.

"A very important person."

"Looks like it's a woman." The sound effects engineer added an exclamation voice.

"Let me guess, is it the actress or Qiaoqiao?"

Actress Queen naturally refers to Zheng Yahan, Qiaoqiao is the name of Huang Yajun's character in "Fission".

Liu Hengche just smiled without moving, and cleverly changed the subject: "It's also thanks to my parents for supporting me."

"Of course parents are very important, but this is not a parent-child show." Wen Yue put on the appearance of a nympho hostess, with a sly smile on her face, "We want to listen to the younger woman."

"My agent, Sister Ping, helped me a lot when I was at my lowest point." Liu Hengche said, "I am really happy to be able to work with her again now."

Sister Ping stood up from the auditorium and bowed to everyone.There was warm applause at the scene.

"Also, I noticed just now that there are two familiar faces at the scene." He stood up and pointed to the auditorium, "Xiao Meng and Xiao Chen, don't hide, I've seen you both."

Two young girls stood up from the auditorium. They were two of the girls who helped Liu Hengche raise funds to pay off his debts.

Wen Yue had to stand up: "He is very sharp and cunning, isn't he?" She said to the camera, "It seems that we should reserve some space for this mysterious lady." The show skipped to the next link, please The girls who came up began to talk to Liu Hengche, and Mother Liu came in with soup.

"It's time to eat," she said.The corners of his eyes were a little red, as if he had just cried a little.

Father Liu glanced at her and sighed softly.Afterwards, the meal was a little tasteless. Although Zhou Yuanzhi really wanted to liven up the atmosphere, seeing the second elder like this, he had no way to do it. He could only tell the second elder some interesting stories about the entertainment industry and Liu Hengche's recent situation. .Halfway through the meal, Liu Hengche called and the atmosphere finally warmed up.

He wished his father a birthday on the phone, and then came to cheer his mother up, and the old man burst into laughter.

"Yuanzhi," he finally called Zhou Yuanzhi's name, "I'm sorry to let you come alone."

Zhou Yuanzhi's heart skipped a beat, and he went to see the two old people with a guilty conscience. Fortunately, they didn't find anything unusual, and they were talking in a low voice while eating.

"It's okay, you can't help it."

"But I want to go home with you." Liu Hengche gasped unconsciously when speaking on the phone, intermittently, obviously it was cold over there.The faint background noise proved that he was working now, and he was still outside.

"So... there will always be a chance in the future." Zhou Yuanzhi lowered his voice and said, "You have to work hard over there, and remember to try to eat on time, so as not to spoil your stomach again."

"I see." Liu Hengche seemed to have taken a few steps to a quiet corner, and then said softly, "I miss you and want to kiss you."

Zhou Yuanzhi almost dropped the microphone in his hand, looked at the two elders again, and said, "Anyway, work hard, and come back early to see your uncle and aunt."

"Yuanzhi!" Liu Hengche acted like a baby.

Zhou Yuanzhi deliberately amplified his voice and asked, "Uncle and aunt, do you have anything else to say to Ah Che?"

Mama Liu stood up: "Let me say a few more words." Zhou Yuanzhi hurriedly threw the microphone to Mama Liu like a hot potato, but when he sat down, he found Papa Liu was looking at him, thinking that he would be found out if he said something wrong Yes, my heart almost jumped out.But Liu's father said, "Xiao Zhou, why are you acting like a child?" He pointed at Zhou Yuanzhi's chin, and Zhou Yuanzhi subconsciously wiped it with his hand, only to realize that he had been stained with sauce. The emotion of the rest of life.

After dinner, Zhou Yuanzhi accompanied Liu's father to cut the cake. The old man was unwell and ate this kind of creamy food, so he only took two token bites, and then shared the rest with the neighbors.After the meal, he sat with the elder for a while, and did not get up until after eight o'clock to say goodbye.

Zhou Yuanzhi had only walked downstairs a few steps when he suddenly heard someone calling him behind him, and when he looked back, it was Mother Liu chasing down from upstairs with a small paper bag in her hand.

"I forgot to give you the dumplings I made yesterday." Mother Liu said and stuffed the paper bag into Zhou Yuanzhi's hand.

Zhou Yuanzhi quickly thanked her, but Liu's mother still didn't want to go upstairs.

"Auntie, you don't need to give it to me. It's cold outside."

Mother Liu thought for a while, lowered her voice and asked, "Xiao Zhou, I want to ask you something."

Zhou Yuanzhi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Auntie, please tell me."

"Don't think the old man is wordy. Auntie just wants to know, is our little Che dating that Miss Huang?"

Zhou Yuanzhi's smile suddenly seemed to be frozen on his face: "Miss Huang?"

"It's that Qiaoqiao in "Fission". I heard that she is the eldest lady of a good family, and she seems to have a good character." Mother Liu grabbed Zhou Yuanzhi's arm and lowered her voice, "Don't you I know, she visited us once and gave us a lot of things! I think she must have a special relationship with our little Che." Liu's mother said firmly, "Xiao Che is really a real kid. Can't say it, can't you say it at home? I think that girl is pretty good, he is thirty years old this year, it's time to settle down, alas, all my friends have grandchildren, only me..."

Zhou Yuanzhi only felt that the place where his arm was grabbed was excruciatingly painful, and his whole body was cold.

Mother Liu continued on her own, "Anyway, that Miss Zheng is not good. I know that there are quite a few people in your industry who are much younger than me, but that Miss Zheng is not even a few years younger than me. She is kind to Xiao Che, so it is impossible for me to let her in, right? Xiao Zhou?"

Only then did Zhou Yuanzhi come to his senses, and said with difficulty: "I...I don't know, Ah Che never mentioned this to me."

Ms. Liu was very surprised: "He treats you like your big brother, and he even hides it from you? This kid is real." She thought again, "Could it be that he really doesn't have a date, but I don't think he looks like him. It looks like he already has someone he likes. By the way, that girl seems to have given him a piece of jade, I think he has been hanging it, so it looks like a woman's thing."

Zhou Yuanzhi was almost unable to hold on any longer, but fortunately, Mother Liu finally finished her sentence: "Oh, look, I never stop talking about this, and let you blow in the cold wind. Hey, Xiao Zhou, anyway, you But you have to be more careful for auntie, and tell me in time if there is any trouble.

"...Yes, I will." Zhou Yuanzhi tried his best to say this sentence, but found that his voice was so weak and soft, as if blown by the winter wind, it would disperse like a ghost. He had no choice but to Emphasize again, "If there is anything, I must tell my aunt!"

Only then did Mother Liu nodded in satisfaction: "Thank you first, auntie." She changed the subject again, "Actually, you are not young anymore, it's time to consider getting a wife, what do you like, auntie Watch out for you."

"I... I haven't thought about it yet..."

"Oh, I'm not saying that you young people can't afford to wait for this. I know that each of you is busy with your career, but you can't ignore your family when you are busy with your career. Your parents must be very anxious."

Zhou Yuanzhi just listened silently, and after a while, Liu's mother patted his hand kindly after finishing speaking: "Xiao Zhou, come and sit at home if you have time."

Only then did Zhou Yuanzhi pull out a forced smile: "Well, thank you, auntie."

Mother Liu left for a long time, but Zhou Yuanzhi still stood in the cold wind, unable to move.The wind had already blown through his clothes, and his injured knees were so cold that they hurt like needles, but he couldn't and didn't want to move.

"Teacher Zhou." Someone called out behind him, seeing that he didn't respond, came over and patted him on the shoulder tentatively.Zhou Yuanzhi turned his head in a daze, and saw Liu Hengpei whose cheeks were flushed from the cold.

"Teacher Zhou," Liu Hengpei smiled wryly, "Are you okay?"

Zhou Yuanzhi shook his head, thinking that he should leave, so he took a step mechanically, but after taking one step, his knee hurt so badly that he fell down suddenly.

"Be careful!" Liu Hengpei grabbed his hand suddenly, "Mr. Zhou, what's wrong with you? Is the old injury hurting again?"

Zhou Yuanzhi just stood still again, and then said softly: "Thank you." He wanted to push Liu Hengpei's hand away, but Liu Hengpei held him tightly.Zhou Yuanzhi tried several times but failed to break free, and finally raised his head angrily: "What do you want to do?"

"Mr. Zhou, can you accompany me to have a cup of tea?" Liu Hengpei asked.

"I'm sorry Mr. Liu, I don't have time."

Liu Hengpei hesitated for a moment: "I just want to have a cup of tea with you, nothing else."

"I've learned enough about the meaning behind your meaningless words." Zhou Yuanzhi said, pulling away Liu Hengpei's hand forcefully, "Farewell." After speaking, he dragged his leg and left in the cold wind.

Liu Hengpei heaved a long sigh. He looked at the lights in his window, with a bitter smile on his face, and left.

I have to go out in two days, so I rushed to update it.
