"Just came back, let me see why you are dark and thin." Dad Cheng hurriedly leaned in front of the phone screen, blocking the light with his whole body, and the screen on Cheng Zhou's side instantly went black.

"It's dark where I am, the light in the room is dark." Cheng Zhou said dumbfoundedly, "Dad, turn your face back a little, you are blocking the camera."

Cheng's mother took the phone away with a look of disgust: "My daughter said you blocked the camera! In what age, you don't even know how to use a phone."

"Hey, the screen is too small, I can't see clearly!" Dad Cheng complained.

"Huh? Mom, are you not using the mobile phone I bought for you last time?" Cheng Zhou thought of the new mobile phone he bought for his mother. Things just work.

"Oh, a new mobile phone. When Xiaoxia came to our house that day, she kept praising the new style of this mobile phone. She also wanted to buy it, so I gave it to her."

Cheng Zhou: "...Can't you keep what I bought? What are you doing for your cousin?"

Cheng's mother gave Cheng Zhou a blank look: "She introduces you to someone every day, there is no credit but hard work." After that, she winked at Cheng's father, and dragged him to sit upright in front of the screen together : "Don't talk about anything else, your dad wants to tell you something."

"What?" Cheng Zhou pricked up his ears, and instantly had a bad feeling.

"Zhouzhou..." Cheng's father was a little restrained. He glanced at his wife next to him meaningfully. What a great university, just pick one and find a good professor?"

"It's great to be a professor. The job is stable and the benefits are good. I usually have classes for students, and there are winter and summer vacations. It will be convenient for me to get married and take care of my children..." Cheng's mother was talking on the sidelines.

Cheng Zhou's face darkened immediately, and he lowered his head to button the pen cap on the desk, and he didn't feel relieved when it was folded out of shape.

"You are talking, kid! Your father is asking you something."

"You don't like to hear it anyway, so it's better not to say it." Cheng Zhou replied angrily, still refusing to raise his head.

Cheng's mother immediately became furious, and fluently accused: "What did I say again, you have a dark face? You won't let me say it, right? If your wings are hardened, we can't control you, but your attitude towards your parents..."

"Forget it." Cheng's father interrupted the quarrel, and elbowed Cheng's mother, "Zhou Zhou, your mother asked this for your own good. Anyway, staying alone abroad, We don't worry about you either, we will come back after graduation, huh?"

Cheng Zhou took a deep breath, and said in a light voice, "I told you, I don't want to come back for the time being, and I want to try to find a job here."

"Oh, that's it. Then... let's try it first. We can't help you if you're alone outside. Pay attention to your body and don't put too much pressure on yourself..." Father Cheng was a little disappointed, and didn't know for a while. What should I say.

"Hmm..." Cheng Zhou was suddenly surrounded by a strong sense of guilt, as well as a sense of powerlessness.She reached out to wipe her eyes, and the back of her hand was unexpectedly wet.

"I'm 27 years old, it's fine if I haven't finished reading the book, and I haven't found a partner..." Cheng Ma continued to chatter.

Cheng Zhou bit his lower lip tightly, and a burst of blood gushed out of his mouth.She sniffled and said in a hoarse voice: "I won't find a partner! It's my own business to study a Ph. D., don't talk about it..." Before she finished speaking, tears welled up in her eyes, and her body trembled uncontrollably In the end, he couldn't help crying.

"Zhouzhou!" Two voices sounded at the same time, and then the video was hung up.The deep and deep male voice was instantly blocked, leaving only the soft and concerned question beside him: "Honey, what's wrong with you?"

The long dark brown hair like a waterfall poured over his ears, and the water vapor filled the air around him.Gu Yazhen just came out of the bathroom, still wearing pajamas.

Cheng Zhou ignored her embarrassment, hugged her waist, and buried his head in her arms, his words were obscured by unstoppable sobs: "I just... just... want to cry ...I'm sad...Obviously I've...did my best...she...can't...see anything..."

Gu Yazhen didn't answer, but just stroked her back, and the two stood in this position for a long time.Cheng Zhou cried and cried a little bored, so he rubbed Gu Yazhen's pajamas to wipe away his tears.

"Is it better?" Gu Yazhen asked softly when she suppressed her sobs.

"Well, I'll make breakfast." Cheng Zhou rubbed his eyes and broke free from Gu Yazhen's arms, as if nothing had happened.

Gu Yazhen quickly pulled her back into her arms, and scraped the tip of her nose intimately: "Today is Saturday, let's go out to eat."

"No, my eyes are red." Cheng Zhou shook his head feebly.

"Is that called takeaway?"

“It’s not worth the high delivery fee and tip.”

"Then I'll buy it for you and bring it back?"

"Bring it back, it's already cold."

"Then I cook it for you?"

"Unappetizing."

"..."

Gu Yazhen gave Cheng Zhou an aggrieved look, drooped her head and said nothing.Cheng Zhou thought it was very cute in his eyes, and immediately burst into tears.

"Is it intentional?" Gu Yazhen stood up straight and folded her hands in front of her chest, quite condescending and domineering.Cheng Zhou shrank his neck in fright, afraid that Gu Yazhen would pounce on him in the next second.

"Hmph, so what, I just want to complain about you." Cheng Zhou relied on his own crying, and the arrogant little flame rose again in an instant.

Gu Yazhen pursed her lips, leaned close to her face, looked straight at her, with a trace of teasing on the corner of her lips: "Little guy, let's see how I deal with you."

"You dare. I'm sad, you want to coax me." Cheng Zhou puffed his mouth, and the tails of his eyes fell unconsciously in the midst of his grievances, looking quite pitiful.

Without any hesitation, as if pressing the fast-forward button, Gu Yazhen immediately changed into a smiling face: "Oh, my baby is so cute when she is unreasonable." Then she bowed her head and kissed fiercely.

Cheng Zhou avoided Gu Yazhen's kiss, and couldn't help laughing happily. "I'm going to make breakfast."

Walking to the kitchen, he took out eggs and ham from the refrigerator, and Cheng Zhou made two simple sandwiches, thinking about life while eating.

"Will you bother me a lot during this time?" She asked suddenly.

Gu Yazhen put down the sandwich in her hand in surprise: "Why would I find you annoying?"

"I have a bitter face recently, and I always pick on your thorns, thinking that you are not good and that is not good."

"You have a lot of pressure to graduate, I understand." Gu Yazhen said calmly.

Cheng Zhou lowered his eyes: "I feel like a failure... I couldn't find a job, my scientific research was a mess, I quarreled with my parents, and even vented my anger on you..." Life is not what it should be at all. She has been looking forward to graduating for so many years, waiting for it It really came, but stood there helplessly and desperately.

"You have done a good job in scientific research, and you will definitely graduate." Gu Yazhen said, "There is no hurry to find a job, I will support you."

"You've been raising me." Cheng Zhou felt that if he could grow a beard, his face would be full of vicissitudes now.Her own financial management ability is very problematic. In the past two years, she didn't have to pay the rent. It is reasonable to say that she should have saved some money. In the end, not only did she not save it, but she often couldn't make ends meet. She relied on Gu Yazhen for daily support.

What a failure to be a human being, Cheng Zhou sighed sadly.

"Actually, I want to have a showdown with my parents." Cheng Zhou pursed his lips and tapped his fingers on the table anxiously. "We've been together for so many years, and I don't want to keep it a secret anymore. But every time in the video, I'm too scared to say it... I almost said it a few times, but my mother interrupted me. "

Gu Yazhen remained silent, meditating on the last piece of bread.

"My parents miss me every day to get married and have children. When I returned to China last time, I was tricked into going on a blind date for dinner. I...I feel very sorry for them, làng spent so much energy on them, and then they dare not come out ..."

Cheng Zhou spoke hesitantly, observing Gu Yazhen's expression carefully, who knew that Gu Yazhen hid it well, but her face was expressionless.

Is Gu Yazhen angry?Cheng Zhou thought anxiously. "Am I bad? I haven't given you an explanation after dragging on for so long..."

"Honey, I'm not in a hurry, why don't you graduate first?" Gu Yazhen interrupted suddenly.

Cheng Zhou: "..."

Seeing Cheng Zhou looking at her anxiously, Gu Yazhen was a little amused: "It's rare to see your expression like this, I miss you so much." Cheng Zhou's dislike of her in various ways recently gave her the illusion that her family status has plummeted.Seeing this terrified look made her feel relaxed and happy, and her image seemed to have grown tall and majestic.

"Don't be angry." Cheng Zhou said pitifully.

Gu Yazhen raised her eyebrows: "If you think about these things, I'll be really angry. It's an important moment, young man, graduation is important."
