The world of film and television begins with Zhou Bingkun in the human world.
Chapter 5 Zhou Rong's Anger
For the next two days, Zhou Bingkun stayed at home obediently, not showing his face no matter what he was doing.
He eats when it's time to eat, sleeps when it's time to sleep, and does any chores around the house without delay or complaining.
As a result, Zhou Zhigang and his colleagues did not devote much energy or attention to Zhou Bingkun.
It wasn't until two days later, when the neighborhood committee came to inform them that Zhou Bingkun's time to go to the countryside had come, that Zhou Zhigang and the others began to focus their attention back on Zhou Bingkun.
"Zhou Bingkun? How could you do this?" Zhou Rong pointed at Zhou Bingkun angrily.
"Yes, Bingkun, why didn't you tell me about going to the countryside beforehand?" Zhou Zhigang frowned, his face showing a hint of anger. He wasn't against Zhou Bingkun going to the countryside; he was angry because Zhou Bingkun hadn't told him or discussed it with him.
In Zhou Zhigang's view, he was the head of the Zhou family, and he should be in charge of everyone in the family.
Zhou Bingkun signed up to participate in the educated youth going to the countryside on his own, completely ignoring his authority as the head of the family.
"I heard someone on the street a couple of days ago that the government has a program for educated youth to go to the countryside, and each family can only leave one child at home. I thought, we can't let Zhou Rong, a girl, go to the countryside alone. After all, the countryside is so poor, and nobody knows if the people there are good or bad. If Zhou Rong goes to the countryside and meets a bad man, her life will be ruined. So I signed up directly." Zhou Bingkun seemed honest and simple, as if he was completely thinking about Zhou Rong.
"Zhou Bingkun, do I need you to consider my feelings?" Zhou Rong's face was filled with barely suppressed anger, and the finger she pointed at Zhou Bingkun seemed to want to pierce him.
"Zhou Rong, you can't say that. Bingkun did all this for your own good. After all, you're a young girl; if you encounter bad people in the countryside, you'll be completely helpless. Bingkun, you did very well this time, but it was wrong of you not to discuss this with your family. I'll let it go this time because you considered your sister's feelings. But next time, if anything happens, you must consult me first, understand?"
Zhou Zhigang doted on Zhou Rong, so after hearing that Zhou Bingkun did this for Zhou Rong's sake, his attitude towards Zhou Bingkun improved greatly, and his expression became much kinder.
"You, you all—Dad, I want to go to the countryside! I'm the older sister, I can't let Bingkun suffer for me." Zhou Rong took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress the anger in her heart and make her voice calm.
"Alright, Zhou Rong, it's settled then. Bingkun has already registered at the neighborhood office, so don't argue anymore." Zhou Zhigang shook his head. He not only didn't think there was anything wrong with Zhou Rong's appearance, but he also thought that Zhou Rong was really too good. She was willing to suffer herself rather than let her younger brother Zhou Bingkun suffer. He felt very comforted.
As for Zhou Rong's behavior, there were many unreasonable aspects. Even if he could perceive them, he subconsciously ignored them. After all, Zhou Rong was his most beloved daughter, and he didn't want to think the worst of her.
"Dad, this isn't about arguing or not. Anyway, I'm going to the countryside—" Zhou Rong said very stubbornly.
Seeing Zhou Rong like this, Zhou Zhigang felt a bit of a headache.
Li Suhua, with tears in her eyes, also comforted Zhou Rong.
As a mother, Li Suhua naturally did not want her children to leave her side, but if Zhou Rong and Zhou Bingkun really had to go to the countryside, she would indeed prefer Zhou Bingkun to go.
After all, Zhou Rong is so beautiful. If she were to go to the countryside and meet a bad man, her life might be ruined.
"My name has already been reported by the neighborhood committee, so there's no way to change it," Zhou Bingkun reminded him from the side.
"Shut up!" Zhou Rong's voice was particularly sharp at this moment, so sharp it was piercing.
Zhou Rong's performance made Zhou Bingkun sneer inwardly. This was nothing yet. The real show would begin when Zhou Rong found out that Feng Huacheng had been reported and even punished. Zhou Bingkun really wanted to see what kind of expression Zhou Rong would have on her face then.
Unfortunately, he was going to the countryside and wouldn't be able to witness Zhou Rong's wonderful performance later on.
Li Suhua's red eyes also showed some confusion; Zhou Rong's reaction clearly made her feel that something was wrong.
Zhou Zhigang, however, seemed oblivious to everything. Zhou Bingyi, standing beside him, remained completely silent throughout, not uttering a single word, simply watching quietly.
Clearly, Zhou Bingyi knew that it was inappropriate to say anything at this moment, mainly because he might offend Zhou Rong if he opened his mouth.
Zhou Bingyi obviously wouldn't do anything that would offend people, so he simply stayed out of the way.
"I'm going to the countryside tomorrow. I'm going to say goodbye to Sun Ganchao and the others," Zhou Bingkun said, and then went straight out the door.
After all, what else can we do besides stay at home and watch Zhou Rong continue to cause trouble?
However, after leaving home, Zhou Bingkun did not go to find Sun Ganchao and Xiao Guoqing as he had said.
The original owner of this body had a very good relationship with Sun Ganchao and Xiao Guoqing; they were practically inseparable friends. But to Zhou Bingkun now, they were two familiar strangers.
Zhou Zhigang and the others didn't really care about Zhou Bingkun, let alone the fact that he was an outsider.
After leaving home, Zhou Bingkun began to wander aimlessly outside again. As he wandered, he ended up near the movie theater and saw Zheng Juan buying candied hawthorns.
Zheng Juan was still dressed in the same rustic style, her hands tucked into her sleeves, her neck hunched, looking as if she had no neck at all from the cold.
Even though he saw Zheng Juan, Zhou Bingkun had no intention of going up to her.
Ultimately, Zhou Bingkun and Zheng Juan are from two different worlds.
One will stay in the city, while the other will go to a remote village. They may not see each other again for several years or even more than ten years. Therefore, Zhou Bingkun really has no feelings for Zheng Juan.
Zhou Bingkun had no intention of having any further interaction with Zheng Juan, but Zheng Juan's eyes lit up when she saw him, and she ran up to him.
"Um, Zhou Bingkun—uh, thank you for reminding me earlier." Zheng Juan ran up to Zhou Bingkun, but then became speechless, unsure of what to say. In the end, she could only offer a simple thank you.
"No need to thank me, it's just a matter of a word," Zhou Bingkun said casually, waving his hand.
"Um, I'll treat you to some candied hawthorns!" Zheng Juan said, running back to get a skewer of candied hawthorns and handing it to Zhou Bingkun.
Zheng Juan was so shocked by the news Zhou Bingkun told her that she was too flustered to properly thank him. After she calmed down, she realized how foolish she had been to not even know how to thank him.
So when Zheng Juan saw Zhou Bingkun again, she gave him candied hawthorns as a token of her gratitude.
Of course, if it's really as Zhou Bingkun said, a mere candied hawthorn skewer isn't much of a thank you gift.
Zheng Juan had nothing left, and apart from giving Zhou Bingkun a string of candied hawthorns, she didn't know how else to thank him.
