Zhao Zheng had a poor childhood and was homeless many times
At the age of 17, Zhao Zheng moved for the 20th time. This emaciated teenager, carrying a travel bag full of clothes, struggles through the streets on a hot summer day.
He had just been forced to leave the home of a relative, who had been living for more than a year with his parents.
Seeing that the lease period is expiring, they are going to wander in this strange big city again.
Zhao Zheng stepped on the worn slippers tightly, for fear that he would lose his way by accident. This is the 20th move arranged by God in his 17 years of life.
Since Zhao Zheng has a memory, the word "home" has never stayed in his life. When they were children, their family of three lived in the warehouse of the garment factory where their parents worked, and spent time with cotton and cloth cutting.
When they were 10 years old, the factory was demolished, and they lived on the streets and began a "nomadic life" for seven years.
As a moving veteran, Zhao Zheng has long been downsized. But when he was at school and listened to other children talk about his warm home, he couldn't help but feel envious in his heart - when would he be able to have a real home.
The road to acting was full of ups and downs, and I met Xie Run
In 1998, Chinese opera opened the door and ushered in a new student named Zhao Zheng. After getting rid of the field-like childhood life, Zhao Zheng finally saw the hope of life.
He is determined to break out of the world on the road of acting.
That year, China's film and television industry began to flourish. When the opportunity came, Zhao Zheng took over more than 10 movies and TV series non-stop. But he soon realized how difficult it was for newcomers to gain a foothold in this circle.
The director doesn't trust newcomers, and there are very few scenes. Once, in order to survive, Zhao Zheng had to go to the mountains to pick peaches to earn living expenses.
On the difficult road, he met an actress who was also struggling - Xie Run. The two hit it off at first sight, and Xie Run always liked to joke and tease him. Gradually, they went from peers to friends.
Outside of work, they meet for dinner and movies.
Hand in hand, the birth of a 100% good husband
Xie Run first discovered Zhao Zheng's special feelings for himself on a blind date. She originally wanted to introduce Zhao Zheng to the object, but found that all his eyes were focused on herself at the dinner table.
On the way home, her best friend smiled and said to her: "The person Zhao Zheng likes is you."
For a moment, Xie Run seemed to have been touched by something. She suddenly missed Zhao Zheng's gentle gaze and the conversation they had every day. The next day, she plucked up the courage to ask him, "Do you like me?" Zhao Zheng blushed and nodded.
Their days together were sweet. Zhao Zheng would get up early to buy Xie Run's favorite pastries, and would sit with porridge all night when she was sick. In 2005, the two entered the palace of marriage.
Xie Run found that this man regarded "taking care of his wife" as his mission in this life, and she was deeply moved by his meticulous care.
Put down your career and spend your time with your family
The first baby's cry made Zhao Zheng burst into tears. He walked lightly to his wife's bed, looking at the little creature holding his fingers, and his heart was surging.
He vowed to let the child have everything he didn't get.
In order to take care of his family wholeheartedly, Zhao Zheng chose to temporarily withdraw from the film and television industry. He began to learn Xi various parenting knowledge, learned to change diapers, and fed formula. Zhao Zheng teases his son every day to stimulate his language Xi ability.
In order to let the child see more of the world, he will take the baby on the bus for a ride.
The child grew up, and Zhao Zheng took him to the crew where he worked. At first, the little guy didn't adapt to it, so Zhao Zheng played with him to make a play. When he heard the first call of "godfather", Zhao Zheng was so excited that he couldn't speak.
He took his son's little hand and thought that this was the most important role in his life.
100% is really 100%, 18 years like a day
As the days passed, the relationship between Zhao Zheng and Xie Run was as mellow as fine wine. Over the past 18 years, Zhao Zheng's meticulous care has made Xie Run feel what it means to be "loved".
No matter how busy he is, he calls regularly every day, for fear that his wife will be lonely.
Zhao Zheng spends most of his time and energy on his family. For this, he gave up a lot of job opportunities. The agent laughed at him as a "100% good person", he just wanted to do his duty as a husband and father.
Now that my son is an adult, the family of three spends every weekend in a warm home. Zhao Zheng and Xie Run snuggled up on the sofa to look at old photos, and their son teased "like glue and paint" on the side.
They looked at each other and smiled, and the 18-year road of holding hands was not in vain.
