Haishi Airport.
Sheng Yanwen, who finished filming the public welfare short film, returned in time for his birthday. He had just come out of the VIP passage when he accidentally saw a car with a familiar license plate number.
Before he could get over the sarcasm, the anti-peeping window was rolled down. The well-dressed Shi Zhou pulled off his mask, raised his lips and signaled to him, "Yanwen, here."
"..."
Sheng Yanwen was stunned for two seconds, until the assistant beside him grinned and signaled, "Brother Wen, Brother Zhou came to pick you up in person!"
Pick it up in person?
Sheng Yanwen silently recited this word, and approached in three steps, "You don't have a domestic driver's license, how did you drive here? You mess around when I'm not around?"
Shizhou obtained his driver's license abroad in the early years, and after his debut in China, he has been picked up by the company all the time, and privately there are rumors about this free chauffeur.
Shi Zhou didn't expect to face Sheng Yanwen's 'lesson' as soon as they met, and the corner of his mouth immediately pulled down, "Who is messing around? I didn't dare to know the law and broke the law, so I called a substitute driver to drive."
"I wanted to give you a surprise, so I came to pick you up at the airport in person. Fortunately, you came up with a burst of scolding."
Shi Zhou angrily threw the car keys to Sheng Yanwen, "Here, you drive home."
Sheng Yanwen couldn't help laughing, "Let the driver pick you up at the airport, and then ask me to drive home? You're trying to take advantage of it."
Shi Zhou said confidently, "What? It's fine if you don't want to, I don't bother to celebrate your birthday tonight, an old man who is going to be three years old."
Sheng Yanwen let him win verbally, walked around to the driver's seat, and did not forget to take a look at the nearby working team before getting into the car.
The staff were very cooperative, "Brother Wen, you can do whatever you want! Happy birthday!"
Seeing Shi Zhou just after getting off the plane, Sheng Yanwen was obviously in a good mood, he responded with a rare smile, "I've worked hard these days, I have a good meal tonight, I will reimburse the expenses."
After getting cheers and thanks, Sheng Yanwen entered the car with a smile.
Shi Zhou fastened his seat belt again, "Let's go, Master Sheng."
Sheng Yanwen started the car without complaint, and asked casually, "Where are you going tonight?"
Shi Zhou didn't set the navigation at all, "Go home."
Sheng Yanwen raised his eyebrows, "Go home?"
He thought Shi Zhou came to pick him up in person to take him to a restaurant outside.
Shi Zhou nodded, "Don't you feel more comfortable staying at home?"
Hearing his words, Sheng Yan winked and smiled slightly, "Well, it's more comfortable."
Probably because of getting along for a long time, Shi Zhou saw through his inner nature of a hooligan at a glance.
His cheeks were a little hot, "What are you thinking! I'm afraid that you are tired from shooting these two days, and it would be better to stay at home than to go out."
"The birthday cake has already been ordered in advance. I don't have much cooking talent, so I directly ordered Western food to order." He glanced at the time on the car plate, "It's almost time to go home at this time."
Seeing Shi Zhou's eagerness to change the subject, Sheng Yanwen's smile became more obvious.
For him, that familiar feeling came back.
Back then, Shizhou was the same when we first got together. He would rather stay at home and live a small life in the world of two than go out and mess around.
Shi Zhou was stared at by Sheng Yanwen's cheeks, and urged, "You, what are you looking at me for? There is only a temporary stop here for half an hour, so hurry up."
"it is good."
This point just avoided the rush hour, and it was only 05:30 when the two arrived home smoothly.
Shi Zhou loosened his seat belt, and did not forget to finish the "scene" before the start, "Thank you, driver."
Sheng Yanwen responded to him cooperatively, "You're welcome, if you have time, hand in the fare for this period at once."
Shi Zhou closed the car door and snorted, "Speaking of which, after the recording of "No Game No Life" is finished, I have to take the time to test my domestic driver's license."
Sheng Yanwen locked the car and followed up, "Why do you suddenly want to take the exam?"
Shi Zhou expressed his considerations, "Is it more convenient to get a driver's license if you plan to wait in the country for a long time?"
Long-term expectation in China?
Sheng Yanwen was easily pleased by the first half of the sentence, and couldn't help reaching out to hold Shizhou's hand, "That's okay, maybe there will be a need for modern dramas in the future."
"..."
Shi Zhou's eyes moved down accordingly, he looked at the hands held tightly by Sheng Yanwen, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "It's only a few steps from here to the door of the house? Why are you still holding hands?"
Seeing that he didn't refuse, Sheng Yan couldn't help but tighten his grip, "I'm afraid you will get lost."
At the beginning, when he brought the 'amnesia' Shi Zhou home, the other party was so unfamiliar that he didn't even know where to go. Now even if he remembered it firmly, Sheng Yanwen wanted to lead him home step by step.
Sensing Sheng Yanwen's ups and downs, Shi Zhou responded with a flick of his wrist, "I won't get lost again."
Sheng Yanwen signaled, "Let's go, didn't you say that you invited a door-to-door customized western food?"
Shi Zhou nodded, and said as he walked, "It's scheduled to be at the door at [-]:[-], and I was in a hurry to go out in the afternoon, and I forgot to bring my mobile phone. I will..."
Before he could finish speaking, a familiar voice suddenly sounded, "Xiaozhou."
"..."
Shi Zhou got stuck suddenly, and looked towards the source of the sound in a panic. As expected, there was a familiar figure standing at the door of the house——
The other party was dressed very gracefully, wearing a light blue improved cheongsam that showed a particularly charming charm. Although there were wrinkles from the years on the corners of the eyes and brows, it was not difficult to see the beauty of youth.
Shi Zhou reacted for two seconds, "Mom, why are you here?"
The visitor was none other than Shi Zhou's nominal mother, Lou Keqin.
Lou Keqin took two steps forward, and his gaze was fixed on the hands of the two children holding each other, "You ran back to the country without saying a word, why don't you allow me to come and see you?"
Although her tone was not heavy, it carried an unforgettable sense of oppression.
——What is my parents' attitude towards our marriage?
——I don't quite agree.
"..."
Shi Zhou held his breath for no reason, and suddenly recalled the topics he and Sheng Yanwen talked about during the recording of the first episode of the program.
If Sheng Yanwen could say 'disagree', I am afraid that Lou Keqin's attitude is extremely disapproving.
Under the scrutiny of Lou Keqin's eyes, Shi Zhouyin's 'obedience' instinct in his bones was at work, and he subconsciously broke away from the hand held by Sheng Yanwen.
"Mom, you should have told me earlier when you came back to China, so that I... I can pick you up at the airport."
Sheng Yanwen glanced at Kong Luoluo's hand, and his eyes once again fell on Lou Keqin who suddenly appeared, feeling a sense of tension that he had never felt before.
Back then, as soon as Lou Keqin appeared, he took Shi Zhou away in less than three months.
what about now?Does the other party still insist on getting them a divorce?
Sheng Yanwen suppressed his messy thoughts, and greeted politely as a junior, "Mom, long time no see, where is Dad, how is he?"
Lou Keqin frowned unobtrusively when she heard the title he uttered, "He has been ill for the past two years, and his body is inconvenient to come back and take the plane."
Lou Keqin glanced at the old-fashioned and worn-out watch on his wrist, "Xiaozhou, are you free? Mom wants to chat with you."
Shi Zhou couldn't say the words of rejection, "...I'm free."
Sheng Yanwen saw that there was a stiff atmosphere between mother and child, so he simply proposed, "Why don't you find a restaurant to sit? Dinner is also ordered."
Shi Zhou knew that under such circumstances, the world of two people would not be able to survive, at least he had to settle Lou Keqin first, "Yes, do you have anything to talk about after sitting down?"
Lou Ke's Qin eyes wavered slightly, but he still restrained his refusal, "Okay."
...
Half an hour later, the three sat down in a nearby restaurant box.
Shi Zhou picked up the electronic menu on the side, "Mom, what do you want to eat?"
Lou Keqin took a sip of the warm water, and refused softly, "It's okay, just watch it."
Seeing this, Shizhou had no choice but to turn his attention to Sheng Yanwen, "Yanwen, what do you want to eat? Come as you want today."
If a well-prepared family dinner can't start, at least there must be a good meal here.
Sheng Yanwen understood his dependence and intention, and studied the electronic menu closely with him.
Lou Keqin, who was sitting quietly opposite, saw the cuddling posture of the two, his eyes faintly revealing his displeasure.
Sheng Yanwen ordered four or five signature dishes, and in the end he was concerned about Shizhou's preferences, "Order a seafood stew dish? You don't like it the most..."
Lou Keqin's complexion suddenly changed, and when he looked at Shi Zhou, he was hesitant to blame, "Xiaozhou, what seafood do you order?"
Shi Zhou's heart skipped a beat, fearing that Lou Keqin might say something that shouldn't be said, he hurriedly unchecked the 'seafood stewed dish' before the rumors arose.
"No, let's forget about seafood, these few dishes are enough."
"..."
Sheng Yanwen saw Shi Zhou's abnormality, and a trace of inquiry overflowed from the depths of his pupils.
Before he could completely suppress the doubts in his heart, Lou Keqin couldn't help but speak in an elder's manner, "Mr. Sheng, if possible, I hope this meal is a conversation between our mother and son."
The implication was that he hoped that Sheng Yanwen would take the initiative to withdraw from this dinner.
"..."
Sheng Yanwen tightened his grip on the electronic menu. After so many years of training in the entertainment industry, he has never been in a more embarrassing situation than he is now.
Lou Keqin's attitude towards him remained unchanged, no matter it was two years ago or two years later.
The atmosphere at the table froze instantly.
Shi Zhou put his hand on Sheng Yanwen's wrist for the first time, gently rubbing and silently comforting him, "Mom, Yanwen is not an outsider, he..."
"Xiaozhou, I've made my words very clear." Lou Keqin took another sip of warm water, and stubbornness gradually appeared in his seemingly gentle expression.
"Some things can only be said behind closed doors!"
"..."
Shi Zhou was speechless.
On the one hand, he really didn't know what 'him' said to Lou Keqin and what he agreed to before returning home.
On the one hand, he was afraid that Lou Keqin's emotions would get out of control as usual, so he read out Shi Zhou's name for comparison, and then revealed his identity in front of Sheng Yanwen.
In just ten seconds, Sheng Yanwen saw more and more entanglement between Shi Zhou's brows and eyes, and the joy and anticipation after getting off the plane completely faded away in less than an hour.
He looked at the mother and son who were silently confronting each other, and stood up on his own initiative, "Mom, Zhouzhou, let's talk."
Shi Zhou was taken aback, "Words?"
Sheng Yanwen didn't want to show his embarrassed and disappointed side in front of Shizhou, and smiled, "This place is close to home, if you need anything, call me anytime, you mother and son haven't seen each other for months, you should have a good chat. "
Blood ties are thicker than water.
Sheng Yanwen didn't want to force Shizhou to make the so-called choice between himself and his biological mother, so he took a breath without any trace, and walked out of the box without looking back.
Shi Zhou subconsciously got up and chased after him, but Lou Keqin suddenly put the cup back on the table, "Shi Zhou! Stop!"
"..."
Shi Zhou turned around and looked, "Mom, why do you have to talk to Yan Wen like this?"
"Why? I still want to ask you why?" Lou Keqin looked directly at Shizhou, with obsession in his eyes.
"You said that you like the job of an actor, and you like to stand in front of the camera and create characters! Well, I promise to let you come back to China, but only if you break ties with Sheng Yanwen!"
Shi Zhou shook his head in confusion, only feeling that the feeling of suffocation after being forced to control his life has come back again, "I like rumors, why do you have to force me to divorce?"
When Lou Keqin heard the word 'like', she found it even more ridiculous, "In the entertainment industry, how much is liking between same-sex people worth? I told you before, you only love the characters in the script, the actors Filming is the easiest way to be ambiguous!"
"What's more, what good things can there be in this mixed entertainment circle? Xiao Zhou back then..." Lou Keqin was half-spoken, but was dragged into silence unexpectedly by memories.
She didn't know what she thought of, and she looked at Shi Zhou with a subtle cautiousness, and changed her words, "Xiao Zhou, mom is for your own good."
Shi Zhou realized something, and laughed absurdly, "For my own good? No, you just want to turn me into another time and day."
Lou Keqin's mood suddenly became agitated, "Shi Zhou, you have no right to call him by his name like that!"
Shi Zhou's heart became more and more desolate, "Yes, what qualifications do I have as an adopted son?"
Knowing that he could no longer catch up with Sheng Yanwen, he simply returned to the dinner table and looked at Lou Keqin, "Let me guess, did Shi Zhou once tell you that he would marry a wife and have children when he grows up? Or was it him?" Tell you about the type of girl you like?"
"You have always regarded me as his substitute, so you want me to live a life according to his preferences. This should include the concept of marriage and mate selection, right?"
"..."
The secret in his heart was poked, Lou Keqin was speechless for a moment.
In Shi Zhou's year, he accompanied Lou Keqin to the wedding of his best friend's son, and inadvertently expressed his beautiful fantasy about marriage and the other half.
Back then, Lou Keqin thought that as long as he waited another ten or eight years, he would be able to see Shi Zhou walking into the auditorium holding his wife's hand.
Unfortunately, as a mother, all her beautiful fantasies about the future were shattered with the passage of time.
Lou Keqin originally thought that adopting Shi Zhou would be able to get over the pain of "losing a son". As time went on, she always wanted to seek the shadow of her dead son from Shi Zhou.
The more persistent you are, the harder it is to get out.
If it is said that Shi Zhou was somewhat similar to Shi Zhou when she was a child, then the more she grew up, the more she exceeded her control expectations——
The other party returned to China without telling her, entered the entertainment industry, became an actor, and finally obtained a marriage certificate with Sheng Yanwen behind her and her husband's back.
Fortunately, during the past two years when her husband Shi Renqing was ill and was being treated, Shi Zhou returned to his status as an "obedient son", obediently stayed away from the entertainment industry, and separated from Sheng Yanwen Yiguo.
Lou Keqin originally thought that Shizhou and Sheng Yanwen, who hadn't seen each other for many years, would eventually part ways, and then everything would return to the right track she wanted.
Unexpectedly, as soon as her husband's condition improved, Shizhou's idea of "returning to China and making a comeback" rose again.
So, Lou Keqin did one thing——
She knew that Shi Zhou and Sheng Yanwen would have a relationship gap during their long-term relationship in a foreign country, so she directly sent back a proposed divorce agreement to Sheng Yanwen in Shi Zhou's name.
Shi Zhou, who learned about this lately, had an unprecedented quarrel with her, and then immediately bought a ticket to return to the country.
...
The atmosphere in the box dropped to freezing point.
Shi Zhou, who traveled here, didn't know that Lou Keqin had done too much, but still felt that the situation was ridiculous, "I guessed right? In your heart, I should live as Shi Zhou's shadow all my life, right? "
"Xiaozhou, Mom didn't mean that!"
Shi Zhou interrupted her words loudly, "Then what do you mean?"
"Since I was a child, I dare not disobey any of your demands, because I thank you and my father for raising me, turning me from an orphan in an orphanage into a child with a family."
Therefore, even though Lou Keqin regarded him as Shi Zhou's substitute, Shi Zhou pretended not to know.
"But have you ever thought about it, I am a thoughtful and independent individual, why do I have to insist on hearing and hearing?"
Shi Zhou's eyes turned red, and he spoke out the secret hidden deep in his heart.
"Because I am in front of him, it doesn't matter if it is time or the unwanted child in the orphanage, I am myself!"
Whether it's because of "Troubled Times" or five years later, Shizhou will always be himself in front of the rumors.
"If you still care about the mother-child relationship, don't say anything from now on. Unless Sheng Yanwen doesn't want me, I won't be able to divorce him in my life!"
"..."
Lou Keqin looked at Shi Zhou's resolute expression as always, and was speechless.
Shi Zhou looked at the darkening sky outside the window, "I promised Yan Wen that I will celebrate his birthday, and you can eat this meal tonight by yourself."
This was the first time he spoke to Lou Keqin ruthlessly, but it was a joy he had never had before.
The box door was closed with some force.
Lou Keqin sat there blankly, her mind was buzzing, she quickly took out the medicine from her bag and swallowed it with cold water.
In fact, when Shi Renqing learned that Lou Keqin had 'sent the divorce agreement', he also felt that it was unreasonable. The relationship between the husband and wife had completely plunged into freezing point because of the 'adopted son'.
Later, Shi Renqing compulsively took Lou Keqin to see a psychiatrist, and she realized that she was ill under the guidance of a psychiatrist, and realized that what she had done had hurt the relationship between mother and child.
After three months, when Lou Keqin returned to China, she wanted to apologize to Shi Zhou, but as soon as they met, she couldn't control the paranoid thoughts.
Lou Keqin, who gradually calmed down, looked at the empty box, feeling uncontrollably sad——
What to do now?
Is she completely unable to bring back the child Shizhou?
...
Night falls.
Shi Zhou, who didn't bring his mobile phone, used the system to hail a taxi, but it happened that there was a lot of traffic during the rush hour. By the time he got home, it was already past seven o'clock.
The electronic door lock opened in response.
The whole room was pitch black, only the smell of alcohol permeated it.
Realizing that something was wrong, Shi Zhou turned on the dim overhead light at the entrance, and immediately saw Sheng Yanwen standing by the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The other party was holding a bottle of champagne in his hand, which was only half full.
Hearing the movement, Sheng Yanwen turned around and looked at Shi Zhou across most of the living room.
"..."
An oppressive silence spread.
Shi Zhou recognized the redness in the other party's eyes, and stepped forward, "Don't you usually not like to drink? Why did you drink alone tonight?"
Don't like drinking?
Sheng Yanwen looked at Shi Zhou without blinking, and the pain that had been accumulated for a long time in his heart finally broke out completely.
He threw the champagne on the fabric sofa, and violently pulled Shi Zhou against the completely cold floor-to-ceiling window, "Shi Zhou, have you ever loved me?"
"--hiss!"
Before Shi Zhou recovered from the pain in his back, he raised his eyes and caught a glimpse of the small red rash on Sheng Yanwen's neck, "Yanwen, what's going on with you?"
Sheng Yanwen ignored his worries, and couldn't help laughing at himself, "You don't love me? You don't love me a long time ago?"
"I've been fooling myself with 'amnesia', but if you really love me, why can't you remember anything? Forget how we started, forget that I'm allergic to alcohol, and forget..."
You sent me the divorce agreement before returning home.
On the night when the divorce agreement was received, Sheng Yanwen got the news of Shi Zhou's return at the same time. He looked at the unconscious lover in front of the hospital bed, and no one knew what kind of despair he was going through.
Sheng Yanwen imagined thousands of reasons for redemption, and waited for Shi Zhou to wake up with a restless heart.
God made a joke with him and gave him a chance.
After waking up, Shi Zhou forgot everything that had happened, but the first thing he said after returning home was to separate from him.
At that moment, Sheng Yanwen exhausted his whole life of acting skills to disguise himself properly in front of him, and used the so-called three chapters of the contract to delay his "death sentence".
Whether it's on a reality show or getting along in private, Sheng Yanwen tried his best to create a glimmer of hope, but it was completely extinguished because of Lou Keqin's arrival.
Sheng Yanwen finally realized that nothing had changed.
Lou Keqin still treats him as an outsider, once Shizhou recovers his memory, maybe the divorce agreement will be useful one day.
Physical discomfort aggravated the confusion.
Sheng Yanwen couldn't bear this kind of days of worrying about gains and losses and nowhere to go, "Shizhou, let's end the agreement between us ahead of schedule."
Shi Zhou was taken aback, "What?"
Sheng Yanwen dragged him to the study involuntarily.
Shi Zhou couldn't care about the pain in his wrist, and was still thinking about Sheng Yanwen's alcohol allergy, "Yanwen, you need to take medicine now, and we'll talk about other things when you feel better, okay?"
Why hadn't he found out before?How can you just think that Sheng Yanwen doesn't like drinking.No wonder the other party got angry when he toasted and teased him when he was filming the cover magazine.
He only enjoys the good news, but forgets to learn to respond in time.
——Dididi.
The safe in the dark compartment of the study opened in response.
Sheng Yanwen took out the divorce agreement inside and threw it on the table, "Divorce agreement."
He picked up the water-based pen on the table, signed his name neatly on it, and then handed the pen to Shi Zhou, "Didn't you want to separate from me when you returned to China?"
"Shi Zhou, I have signed, and now I leave the decision to you."
"..."
Shi Zhou didn't expect Sheng Yanwen to take out this thing at all, and when his eyes fell, he finally saw his empty ring finger.
Seeing that he was silent, Sheng Yan asked in a colder tone, "If you still have the slightest thought of getting a divorce, you can sign at any time."
"It's up to you to decide when the news will be released to the public. I will fully cooperate with you. If there are marketing accounts that make up random materials, Shengyu will help you deal with them thoroughly."
"All in all, the news of our divorce will not affect your stardom. If you want, I will save a suitable script for you..."
Shi Zhou ignored his condition at all, and choked out a shudder, "Where's your ring? You told me not to take it off and lose it, what about yours?"
Sheng Yanwen's fingertips holding the pen were faintly white, and he was confused, "Is this still important?"
He was afraid that he would not be able to control the breach of the contract, so he had to scribble the pen into Shi Zhou's hand, "I won't be here to influence your decision, you can do whatever you want."
Sheng Yanwen took two steps towards the door, but the signature pen fell directly at his feet——
"Sound rumors! How crazy are you! Except for the time I just came home, when did I ever say I was going to divorce you!"
With crying anger, accompanied by the sound of paper being shredded.
Sheng Yanwen, who was eroded by alcohol, turned around slowly, only to find that Shi Zhou had thrown a stack of shredded papers on the ground.
Looking at each other, Shi Zhou blushed easily, "I know I said something wrong before, can you stop holding grudges like this? I, I..."
Shi Zhou knew that he was not doing well enough, but he didn't know how to restore the person in front of him because he had no relationship experience.
Sheng Yanwen couldn't see Shi Zhou crying the most, and he still strode back to his side after all, but told him to recognize the reality word by word, "Have you seen it clearly? After tearing this up, there will be no chance in this life."
"Who cares about this opportunity?"
Shi Zhou, who had fully realized his intentions, crashed into Sheng Yanwen's arms, and his crying voice was soft and pitiful, "Honey, I don't want to divorce you."
Sheng Yanwen, who finished filming the public welfare short film, returned in time for his birthday. He had just come out of the VIP passage when he accidentally saw a car with a familiar license plate number.
Before he could get over the sarcasm, the anti-peeping window was rolled down. The well-dressed Shi Zhou pulled off his mask, raised his lips and signaled to him, "Yanwen, here."
"..."
Sheng Yanwen was stunned for two seconds, until the assistant beside him grinned and signaled, "Brother Wen, Brother Zhou came to pick you up in person!"
Pick it up in person?
Sheng Yanwen silently recited this word, and approached in three steps, "You don't have a domestic driver's license, how did you drive here? You mess around when I'm not around?"
Shizhou obtained his driver's license abroad in the early years, and after his debut in China, he has been picked up by the company all the time, and privately there are rumors about this free chauffeur.
Shi Zhou didn't expect to face Sheng Yanwen's 'lesson' as soon as they met, and the corner of his mouth immediately pulled down, "Who is messing around? I didn't dare to know the law and broke the law, so I called a substitute driver to drive."
"I wanted to give you a surprise, so I came to pick you up at the airport in person. Fortunately, you came up with a burst of scolding."
Shi Zhou angrily threw the car keys to Sheng Yanwen, "Here, you drive home."
Sheng Yanwen couldn't help laughing, "Let the driver pick you up at the airport, and then ask me to drive home? You're trying to take advantage of it."
Shi Zhou said confidently, "What? It's fine if you don't want to, I don't bother to celebrate your birthday tonight, an old man who is going to be three years old."
Sheng Yanwen let him win verbally, walked around to the driver's seat, and did not forget to take a look at the nearby working team before getting into the car.
The staff were very cooperative, "Brother Wen, you can do whatever you want! Happy birthday!"

After getting cheers and thanks, Sheng Yanwen entered the car with a smile.
Shi Zhou fastened his seat belt again, "Let's go, Master Sheng."
Sheng Yanwen started the car without complaint, and asked casually, "Where are you going tonight?"
Shi Zhou didn't set the navigation at all, "Go home."
Sheng Yanwen raised his eyebrows, "Go home?"
He thought Shi Zhou came to pick him up in person to take him to a restaurant outside.
Shi Zhou nodded, "Don't you feel more comfortable staying at home?"
Hearing his words, Sheng Yan winked and smiled slightly, "Well, it's more comfortable."
Probably because of getting along for a long time, Shi Zhou saw through his inner nature of a hooligan at a glance.
His cheeks were a little hot, "What are you thinking! I'm afraid that you are tired from shooting these two days, and it would be better to stay at home than to go out."

At the beginning, when he brought the 'amnesia' Shi Zhou home, the other party was so unfamiliar that he didn't even know where to go. Now even if he remembered it firmly, Sheng Yanwen wanted to lead him home step by step.

Shi Zhou reacted for two seconds, "Mom, why are you here?"
The visitor was none other than Shi Zhou's nominal mother, Lou Keqin.
Lou Keqin took two steps forward, and his gaze was fixed on the hands of the two children holding each other, "You ran back to the country without saying a word, why don't you allow me to come and see you?"
Although her tone was not heavy, it carried an unforgettable sense of oppression.

Lou Keqin glanced at the old-fashioned and worn-out watch on his wrist, "Xiaozhou, are you free? Mom wants to chat with you."
Shi Zhou couldn't say the words of rejection, "...I'm free."
Sheng Yanwen saw that there was a stiff atmosphere between mother and child, so he simply proposed, "Why don't you find a restaurant to sit? Dinner is also ordered."
Shi Zhou knew that under such circumstances, the world of two people would not be able to survive, at least he had to settle Lou Keqin first, "Yes, do you have anything to talk about after sitting down?"
Lou Ke's Qin eyes wavered slightly, but he still restrained his refusal, "Okay."
...
Half an hour later, the three sat down in a nearby restaurant box.
Shi Zhou picked up the electronic menu on the side, "Mom, what do you want to eat?"
Lou Keqin took a sip of the warm water, and refused softly, "It's okay, just watch it."
Seeing this, Shizhou had no choice but to turn his attention to Sheng Yanwen, "Yanwen, what do you want to eat? Come as you want today."
If a well-prepared family dinner can't start, at least there must be a good meal here.
Sheng Yanwen understood his dependence and intention, and studied the electronic menu closely with him.
Lou Keqin, who was sitting quietly opposite, saw the cuddling posture of the two, his eyes faintly revealing his displeasure.
Sheng Yanwen ordered four or five signature dishes, and in the end he was concerned about Shizhou's preferences, "Order a seafood stew dish? You don't like it the most..."
Lou Keqin's complexion suddenly changed, and when he looked at Shi Zhou, he was hesitant to blame, "Xiaozhou, what seafood do you order?"
Shi Zhou's heart skipped a beat, fearing that Lou Keqin might say something that shouldn't be said, he hurriedly unchecked the 'seafood stewed dish' before the rumors arose.
"No, let's forget about seafood, these few dishes are enough."
"..."
Sheng Yanwen saw Shi Zhou's abnormality, and a trace of inquiry overflowed from the depths of his pupils.
Before he could completely suppress the doubts in his heart, Lou Keqin couldn't help but speak in an elder's manner, "Mr. Sheng, if possible, I hope this meal is a conversation between our mother and son."
The implication was that he hoped that Sheng Yanwen would take the initiative to withdraw from this dinner.
"..."
Sheng Yanwen tightened his grip on the electronic menu. After so many years of training in the entertainment industry, he has never been in a more embarrassing situation than he is now.
Lou Keqin's attitude towards him remained unchanged, no matter it was two years ago or two years later.
The atmosphere at the table froze instantly.
Shi Zhou put his hand on Sheng Yanwen's wrist for the first time, gently rubbing and silently comforting him, "Mom, Yanwen is not an outsider, he..."
"Xiaozhou, I've made my words very clear." Lou Keqin took another sip of warm water, and stubbornness gradually appeared in his seemingly gentle expression.
"Some things can only be said behind closed doors!"
"..."
Shi Zhou was speechless.
On the one hand, he really didn't know what 'him' said to Lou Keqin and what he agreed to before returning home.
On the one hand, he was afraid that Lou Keqin's emotions would get out of control as usual, so he read out Shi Zhou's name for comparison, and then revealed his identity in front of Sheng Yanwen.
In just ten seconds, Sheng Yanwen saw more and more entanglement between Shi Zhou's brows and eyes, and the joy and anticipation after getting off the plane completely faded away in less than an hour.
He looked at the mother and son who were silently confronting each other, and stood up on his own initiative, "Mom, Zhouzhou, let's talk."
Shi Zhou was taken aback, "Words?"
Sheng Yanwen didn't want to show his embarrassed and disappointed side in front of Shizhou, and smiled, "This place is close to home, if you need anything, call me anytime, you mother and son haven't seen each other for months, you should have a good chat. "
Blood ties are thicker than water.
Sheng Yanwen didn't want to force Shizhou to make the so-called choice between himself and his biological mother, so he took a breath without any trace, and walked out of the box without looking back.
Shi Zhou subconsciously got up and chased after him, but Lou Keqin suddenly put the cup back on the table, "Shi Zhou! Stop!"
"..."
Shi Zhou turned around and looked, "Mom, why do you have to talk to Yan Wen like this?"
"Why? I still want to ask you why?" Lou Keqin looked directly at Shizhou, with obsession in his eyes.
"You said that you like the job of an actor, and you like to stand in front of the camera and create characters! Well, I promise to let you come back to China, but only if you break ties with Sheng Yanwen!"
Shi Zhou shook his head in confusion, only feeling that the feeling of suffocation after being forced to control his life has come back again, "I like rumors, why do you have to force me to divorce?"
When Lou Keqin heard the word 'like', she found it even more ridiculous, "In the entertainment industry, how much is liking between same-sex people worth? I told you before, you only love the characters in the script, the actors Filming is the easiest way to be ambiguous!"
"What's more, what good things can there be in this mixed entertainment circle? Xiao Zhou back then..." Lou Keqin was half-spoken, but was dragged into silence unexpectedly by memories.
She didn't know what she thought of, and she looked at Shi Zhou with a subtle cautiousness, and changed her words, "Xiao Zhou, mom is for your own good."
Shi Zhou realized something, and laughed absurdly, "For my own good? No, you just want to turn me into another time and day."
Lou Keqin's mood suddenly became agitated, "Shi Zhou, you have no right to call him by his name like that!"
Shi Zhou's heart became more and more desolate, "Yes, what qualifications do I have as an adopted son?"
Knowing that he could no longer catch up with Sheng Yanwen, he simply returned to the dinner table and looked at Lou Keqin, "Let me guess, did Shi Zhou once tell you that he would marry a wife and have children when he grows up? Or was it him?" Tell you about the type of girl you like?"
"You have always regarded me as his substitute, so you want me to live a life according to his preferences. This should include the concept of marriage and mate selection, right?"
"..."
The secret in his heart was poked, Lou Keqin was speechless for a moment.
In Shi Zhou's year, he accompanied Lou Keqin to the wedding of his best friend's son, and inadvertently expressed his beautiful fantasy about marriage and the other half.
Back then, Lou Keqin thought that as long as he waited another ten or eight years, he would be able to see Shi Zhou walking into the auditorium holding his wife's hand.
Unfortunately, as a mother, all her beautiful fantasies about the future were shattered with the passage of time.
Lou Keqin originally thought that adopting Shi Zhou would be able to get over the pain of "losing a son". As time went on, she always wanted to seek the shadow of her dead son from Shi Zhou.
The more persistent you are, the harder it is to get out.
If it is said that Shi Zhou was somewhat similar to Shi Zhou when she was a child, then the more she grew up, the more she exceeded her control expectations——
The other party returned to China without telling her, entered the entertainment industry, became an actor, and finally obtained a marriage certificate with Sheng Yanwen behind her and her husband's back.
Fortunately, during the past two years when her husband Shi Renqing was ill and was being treated, Shi Zhou returned to his status as an "obedient son", obediently stayed away from the entertainment industry, and separated from Sheng Yanwen Yiguo.
Lou Keqin originally thought that Shizhou and Sheng Yanwen, who hadn't seen each other for many years, would eventually part ways, and then everything would return to the right track she wanted.
Unexpectedly, as soon as her husband's condition improved, Shizhou's idea of "returning to China and making a comeback" rose again.
So, Lou Keqin did one thing——
She knew that Shi Zhou and Sheng Yanwen would have a relationship gap during their long-term relationship in a foreign country, so she directly sent back a proposed divorce agreement to Sheng Yanwen in Shi Zhou's name.
Shi Zhou, who learned about this lately, had an unprecedented quarrel with her, and then immediately bought a ticket to return to the country.
...
The atmosphere in the box dropped to freezing point.
Shi Zhou, who traveled here, didn't know that Lou Keqin had done too much, but still felt that the situation was ridiculous, "I guessed right? In your heart, I should live as Shi Zhou's shadow all my life, right? "
"Xiaozhou, Mom didn't mean that!"
Shi Zhou interrupted her words loudly, "Then what do you mean?"
"Since I was a child, I dare not disobey any of your demands, because I thank you and my father for raising me, turning me from an orphan in an orphanage into a child with a family."
Therefore, even though Lou Keqin regarded him as Shi Zhou's substitute, Shi Zhou pretended not to know.
"But have you ever thought about it, I am a thoughtful and independent individual, why do I have to insist on hearing and hearing?"
Shi Zhou's eyes turned red, and he spoke out the secret hidden deep in his heart.
"Because I am in front of him, it doesn't matter if it is time or the unwanted child in the orphanage, I am myself!"
Whether it's because of "Troubled Times" or five years later, Shizhou will always be himself in front of the rumors.
"If you still care about the mother-child relationship, don't say anything from now on. Unless Sheng Yanwen doesn't want me, I won't be able to divorce him in my life!"
"..."
Lou Keqin looked at Shi Zhou's resolute expression as always, and was speechless.
Shi Zhou looked at the darkening sky outside the window, "I promised Yan Wen that I will celebrate his birthday, and you can eat this meal tonight by yourself."
This was the first time he spoke to Lou Keqin ruthlessly, but it was a joy he had never had before.
The box door was closed with some force.
Lou Keqin sat there blankly, her mind was buzzing, she quickly took out the medicine from her bag and swallowed it with cold water.
In fact, when Shi Renqing learned that Lou Keqin had 'sent the divorce agreement', he also felt that it was unreasonable. The relationship between the husband and wife had completely plunged into freezing point because of the 'adopted son'.
Later, Shi Renqing compulsively took Lou Keqin to see a psychiatrist, and she realized that she was ill under the guidance of a psychiatrist, and realized that what she had done had hurt the relationship between mother and child.
After three months, when Lou Keqin returned to China, she wanted to apologize to Shi Zhou, but as soon as they met, she couldn't control the paranoid thoughts.
Lou Keqin, who gradually calmed down, looked at the empty box, feeling uncontrollably sad——
What to do now?
Is she completely unable to bring back the child Shizhou?
...
Night falls.
Shi Zhou, who didn't bring his mobile phone, used the system to hail a taxi, but it happened that there was a lot of traffic during the rush hour. By the time he got home, it was already past seven o'clock.
The electronic door lock opened in response.
The whole room was pitch black, only the smell of alcohol permeated it.
Realizing that something was wrong, Shi Zhou turned on the dim overhead light at the entrance, and immediately saw Sheng Yanwen standing by the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The other party was holding a bottle of champagne in his hand, which was only half full.
Hearing the movement, Sheng Yanwen turned around and looked at Shi Zhou across most of the living room.
"..."
An oppressive silence spread.
Shi Zhou recognized the redness in the other party's eyes, and stepped forward, "Don't you usually not like to drink? Why did you drink alone tonight?"
Don't like drinking?
Sheng Yanwen looked at Shi Zhou without blinking, and the pain that had been accumulated for a long time in his heart finally broke out completely.
He threw the champagne on the fabric sofa, and violently pulled Shi Zhou against the completely cold floor-to-ceiling window, "Shi Zhou, have you ever loved me?"
"--hiss!"
Before Shi Zhou recovered from the pain in his back, he raised his eyes and caught a glimpse of the small red rash on Sheng Yanwen's neck, "Yanwen, what's going on with you?"
Sheng Yanwen ignored his worries, and couldn't help laughing at himself, "You don't love me? You don't love me a long time ago?"
"I've been fooling myself with 'amnesia', but if you really love me, why can't you remember anything? Forget how we started, forget that I'm allergic to alcohol, and forget..."
You sent me the divorce agreement before returning home.
On the night when the divorce agreement was received, Sheng Yanwen got the news of Shi Zhou's return at the same time. He looked at the unconscious lover in front of the hospital bed, and no one knew what kind of despair he was going through.
Sheng Yanwen imagined thousands of reasons for redemption, and waited for Shi Zhou to wake up with a restless heart.
God made a joke with him and gave him a chance.
After waking up, Shi Zhou forgot everything that had happened, but the first thing he said after returning home was to separate from him.
At that moment, Sheng Yanwen exhausted his whole life of acting skills to disguise himself properly in front of him, and used the so-called three chapters of the contract to delay his "death sentence".
Whether it's on a reality show or getting along in private, Sheng Yanwen tried his best to create a glimmer of hope, but it was completely extinguished because of Lou Keqin's arrival.
Sheng Yanwen finally realized that nothing had changed.
Lou Keqin still treats him as an outsider, once Shizhou recovers his memory, maybe the divorce agreement will be useful one day.
Physical discomfort aggravated the confusion.
Sheng Yanwen couldn't bear this kind of days of worrying about gains and losses and nowhere to go, "Shizhou, let's end the agreement between us ahead of schedule."
Shi Zhou was taken aback, "What?"
Sheng Yanwen dragged him to the study involuntarily.
Shi Zhou couldn't care about the pain in his wrist, and was still thinking about Sheng Yanwen's alcohol allergy, "Yanwen, you need to take medicine now, and we'll talk about other things when you feel better, okay?"
Why hadn't he found out before?How can you just think that Sheng Yanwen doesn't like drinking.No wonder the other party got angry when he toasted and teased him when he was filming the cover magazine.
He only enjoys the good news, but forgets to learn to respond in time.
——Dididi.
The safe in the dark compartment of the study opened in response.
Sheng Yanwen took out the divorce agreement inside and threw it on the table, "Divorce agreement."
He picked up the water-based pen on the table, signed his name neatly on it, and then handed the pen to Shi Zhou, "Didn't you want to separate from me when you returned to China?"
"Shi Zhou, I have signed, and now I leave the decision to you."
"..."
Shi Zhou didn't expect Sheng Yanwen to take out this thing at all, and when his eyes fell, he finally saw his empty ring finger.
Seeing that he was silent, Sheng Yan asked in a colder tone, "If you still have the slightest thought of getting a divorce, you can sign at any time."
"It's up to you to decide when the news will be released to the public. I will fully cooperate with you. If there are marketing accounts that make up random materials, Shengyu will help you deal with them thoroughly."
"All in all, the news of our divorce will not affect your stardom. If you want, I will save a suitable script for you..."
Shi Zhou ignored his condition at all, and choked out a shudder, "Where's your ring? You told me not to take it off and lose it, what about yours?"
Sheng Yanwen's fingertips holding the pen were faintly white, and he was confused, "Is this still important?"
He was afraid that he would not be able to control the breach of the contract, so he had to scribble the pen into Shi Zhou's hand, "I won't be here to influence your decision, you can do whatever you want."
Sheng Yanwen took two steps towards the door, but the signature pen fell directly at his feet——
"Sound rumors! How crazy are you! Except for the time I just came home, when did I ever say I was going to divorce you!"
With crying anger, accompanied by the sound of paper being shredded.
Sheng Yanwen, who was eroded by alcohol, turned around slowly, only to find that Shi Zhou had thrown a stack of shredded papers on the ground.
Looking at each other, Shi Zhou blushed easily, "I know I said something wrong before, can you stop holding grudges like this? I, I..."
Shi Zhou knew that he was not doing well enough, but he didn't know how to restore the person in front of him because he had no relationship experience.
Sheng Yanwen couldn't see Shi Zhou crying the most, and he still strode back to his side after all, but told him to recognize the reality word by word, "Have you seen it clearly? After tearing this up, there will be no chance in this life."
"Who cares about this opportunity?"
Shi Zhou, who had fully realized his intentions, crashed into Sheng Yanwen's arms, and his crying voice was soft and pitiful, "Honey, I don't want to divorce you."
