Gu Tao sent a message to Gu Chaoming one night, saying that he had made a lot of money and asked him to go home to celebrate.
Gu Chaoming ignored it and didn't reply as usual. He just felt that Gu Tao was rich, he could calm down for a while, and he could have a relaxing life.
This money seems to have made a lot of money, because Gu Tao didn't come to school to find him this week.
At first, Gu Chaoming was worried, afraid that Gu Tao would see him, but after a week, he has not seen Gu Tao.
Gu Chaoming therefore relaxed a little. Every time he left school without seeing Gu Tao, Gu Chaoming would send a message to Lin Jianfan.
Gu Tao has money, and the frequency of calling him has also decreased. The text messages sent by Gu Chaoming have been hoarding without reading.
Gu Tao temporarily left his world. Gu Chaoming knew that Gu Tao would definitely come back when he had no money. He knew that this kind of life was only a short-term relaxation, and that this kind of life always repeated itself. Gu Chaoming hoped that Gu Tao would not block his classmates and just come to him directly. Rather than worrying about Gu Tao coming to him, it is better to say that Gu Chaoming is waiting for Gu Tao to come to him,
Gu Chaoming didn't know when it would end, and his life was dark. Gu Chaoming knew very well that his life was festering, but he couldn't change anything, he couldn't do anything, it was like watching a fish lose its breath and sink in the sea.
After the second class break in the morning, the exercise was disbanded. Wu Yangyang was full of people on the playground. Gu Chaoming, Cen Xili, and Su Bing were crammed into the crowd and struggled to move forward.
Gu Chaoming saw Lin Jianfan walking with Li Zhao in front, staring at the back of Lin Jianfan's thick hair. He followed the crowd to a hurdle that he was about to cross. Seeing that Gu Chaoming was about to fall if he took another step, Cen Xili reminded him: "Gu Shuai, be careful with your feet."
Gu Chaoming's gaze was recovered from the back of Lin Jian Fan's head, Su Bing smiled at him a little schadenfreude: "Gu Shuai, you are not afraid of falling when there are so many people, just stare at people in a daze while walking. ."
Gu Chaoming glanced at him, Su Bing also smiled: "It's not a loss but a profit~"
Gu Chaoming raised his hand to hit him. There were too many people and Su Bing had nowhere to hide, so he took it honestly.
Away from the crowd, Gu Chaoming and Su Bing wanted to go shopping together, and asked Cen Xili if he would go, Cen Xili said he would go up first.
Cen Xili separated from the two of them, followed the crowd towards the teaching building, and suddenly felt that the light around him was a little blocked.
When you like someone like this, you don't need to look, listen, or radar, you just need to stand beside him, no matter how many people there are or how noisy, you can still perceive his presence at once.
His breathing is special, every bone in his body is special, and all the specials form a special existence that can be sensed through the air as long as you stand beside him.
Cen Xili's body froze involuntarily, stiff and tense, like an unmanned lone boat in the waves, moving with the flow of people.
You Xin walked quietly beside him. Cen Xili didn't speak, was silent, couldn't help but squinted at him.
You Xin was too tall, so he couldn't look up, Cen Xili could only see You Xin's blue and white school uniform jacket.
You Xin also didn't speak, he just walked his way quietly, Chen Haiyang was not by his side, it was much quieter and avoided a lot of wars.
There were all the noise of chatting and going upstairs, only the two of them were silent, like a quiet area in the busy city.
Cen Xili enjoyed it very much. The crowd is crowded, some people are walking forward, some people are slowly passing by, and they have always maintained the same pace.
According to You Xin's steps, he had already walked to the front, but he still stayed by Cen Xili's side. You Xin got closer, and sometimes Cen Xili's shoulder could touch You Xin's arm.
When touched, the sleeves of the school uniforms on the two different arms reacted strangely that could not be explained by chemical physics. The sleeves of the school uniforms, which were not of very good quality, rubbed in the dry autumn air, stabbed and wiped out invisible sparks, causing Cen Xili's shoulders to burn hot.
Because of the flow of people, You Xin was sometimes close to him, sometimes far away, and the farthest was only a palm's distance away. The two are not friends who talk together, nor are they classmates in the same class, but they have always walked together in such a silent way.
Cen Xili's eyes couldn't help but look around, You Xin suddenly pulled his sleeve and pulled him towards him.
Cen Xili looked up at him, the stiffness in his shoulders spread to his entire arm.
You Xin bit his back molars slightly, and released his hand that grabbed Cen Xili's sleeve: "There is someone behind you, walk and see the way."
The voice was flat and indifferent, like a windless sea, without waves. Cen Xili looked at him and smiled slightly, and said softly, "Oh."
There was a slight smile in the voice, like the fragrance floating in the air.
Cen Xili's eyebrows and the corners of his mouth were slightly curved, and You Xin was taken aback for a moment. The spring breeze of Cen Xili's smile blew into a lake and folded it.
Gu Chaoming and Su Bing walked to the canteen together, and Su Bing went to the snack stand to pick out snacks. As soon as Gu Chaoming arrived at the canteen, he went straight to the freezer and bought a bottle of yogurt at the speed of light.
When I saw Lin Jianfan during the dissolution, I wondered if I should buy a bottle of yogurt. As for why I should buy yogurt, who knows? He didn't want to drink either, maybe it was yogurt that caught his eye.
No reason, no reason. Gu Chaoming bought it quickly and waited for Su Bing outside the canteen with yogurt.
When Su Bing came out, he glanced at the yogurt in Gu Chaoming's hand, then glanced at Gu Chaoming again, and then laughed inexplicably.
"Smile?" Gu Chaoming had a ghost in his heart that he didn't know his name, and kicked Su Bing to cover it up.
Su Bing deliberately pretended, and said in a weird tone: "Why do you suddenly want to drink yogurt? Oh, I see, go and bring yogurt to Xiao Fan Fan at my front table, no, it should be warm."
Gu Chaoming squinted at Su Bing: "Send warmth? I also send love? Who said it was for him?"
Su Bing opened a pack of chocolate beans: "Who don't you give it to? You don't like drinking it."
Gu Chaoming said stubbornly: "Why do I like it now, and what if I don't like it tomorrow?"
"Then why did you buy it and not drink it?" Su Bingneng read from Gu Chaoming's face: "I don't want to drink it, I drink it for others."
Gu Chaoming's mouth was too hard: "I'll drink it later."
"It's not the same now as it will be later. I'll help you insert a straw." Su Bing said that he was about to grab it, and Gu Chaoming quickly changed his hands to avoid the yogurt.
Su Bing laughed at him: "Gu Shuai, I want to give it to others and still don't admit it."
"Shut up and eat your beans." Sai Su Bing took a mouthful of chocolate beans, and Gu Chaoming walked for a while and then threw himself into the net with yogurt: "I haven't seen anyone very much recently, it's a bit strange."
Su Bing knew who Gu Chaoming was talking about, but he deliberately asked, "Who are you talking about? How can I know who you are talking about without mentioning his name?"
Gu Chaoming couldn't stand Su Bing, so he grabbed a handful of chocolate beans from the snack bag in Su Bing's hand and blocked his mouth: "Eat your beans."
Su Bing laughed, Gu Chaoming released him and grabbed a handful of chocolate beans to eat.
Su Bing wiped his mouth, chewed the chocolate beans that Gu Chaoming had stuffed into his mouth and said, "You stuffed so much, I don't want to be visual?"
"It's handsome enough, what image do you want?"
When Su Bing heard it, he leaned over and nodded and said, "Well, I'm happy to hear that."
Su Bing said seriously again: "He has changed a little these days."
Gu Chaoming threw a chocolate bean into his mouth, looked at Su Bing and asked, "What's the change?"
"You tell me first, did you give him this yogurt?" Su Bing asked.
Gu Chaoming replied against his will: "No."
Su Bing clapped his hands and clapped: "Show, then show."
Gu Chaoming kicked him: "I want to kick you, what's the change?"
"Seeing how eager you are, I kindly tell you," Su Bing said. "He didn't help them run errands much these days, and even refused to sweep the floor, although he refused a bit."
"Knocked?"
"The reason for refusal was a bit awkward. At first, I thought he wanted to refuse, but he didn't succeed. After saying a few words, he had no reason to go again. Yesterday, he refused Yu Hangwei to let him run errands to buy snacks on the grounds of leg pain. "
Gu Chaoming remembered what he said to Lin Jianfan after school that day, and it seemed that Lin Jianfan was doing what he said.
People who can't say no should have a hard time doing it, Gu Chaoming thought.
"It seems that he can't take it anymore." Su Bing looked at Gu Chaoming and nodded thoughtfully, and continued: "Gu Shuai, you said something to him again, right?"
Gu Chaoming raised his eyebrows and nodded.
Su Bing swallowed the chocolate beans in his mouth and asked, "Then have you been more euphemistic?"
Gu Chaoming nodded with certainty, he should have said something euphemistically...
Su Bing said to Gu Chaoming, "Don't think that everyone has the same heart as me."
Gu Chaoming glanced at Su Bing: "Have you eaten too much chocolate beans, and King Kong is not bad, is it a primary school student?"
"Reminisce about your childhood," Su Bing laughed. "By the way, Gu Shuai, how did you find your house?"
Gu Chaoming shook his head: "I just went to see it that day, and it wasn't very suitable. I originally planned to look for it when I had time on Sunday, but my mother said to come to see me, so I couldn't go."
"Your mother came to see you? You can go, I'll take care of the house for you."
While Su Bing was talking, Gu Chaoming looked at him, his footsteps paused slightly, and Su Bing was secretly helping him again. Su Bing always took his needs to heart and secretly went to help. Gu Chaoming's heart warmed, it was great for him to have such a friend.
Su Bing said: "I think it's better to choose a hidden one, so that your father can't find it. It's best to be stunned. I've found it for you, and I'll send it to you later. "
Gu Chaoming replied, "Yeah," he wanted to say thank you, but he couldn't say anything when he looked at Su Bing, and he also said to Cen Xili. They always cared about him silently and gave him warmth. Gu Chaoming was glad that they still existed in his world. Without them, Gu Chaoming thought that his world would be a dark place.
When he walked into the classroom, the prep bell rang. Su Bing teased Gu Chaoming, stretched out his hand and asked, "Would you like me to bring it to him for you?"
Gu Chaoming kicked Su Bing: "Go back to your place."
Walking into the classroom, looking at Lin Jianfan's seat and walking back to his own seat, only to find that Lin Jianfan's seat was not him, but someone else.
Looking at his position again, Cen Xi was talking to Lin Jianfan. Gu Chaoming walked over and asked Lin Jianfan, "Why did you come here?"
Cen Xili explained to Lin Jianfan, "He and Liu Guangyu have changed positions."
Liu Guangyu was sitting next to Gu Chaoming, and Gu Chaoming snorted indifferently.
"You also change the poodle class? Be careful of her exploding."
"The English teacher just said that he and the biology teacher have changed classes, and this section is about biology." Cen Xili said.
No wonder they dared to change positions. Gu Chaoming looked at Lin Jianfan who was sitting across the aisle, and hesitated to throw the yogurt on Lin Jianfan's table at the risk of being complained by Su Bing: "For you, you don't like it. ?"
Seeing Fan taking it, Lin smiled brightly: "Thank you."
The phone vibrated on the table, Gu Chaoming picked it up and saw that it was the house information sent by Su Bing, and Su Bing then sent another message: "I saw it all." A squinting smile followed.
Gu Chaoming glanced at Su Bing, Su Bing laughed at him, and Gu Chaoming gave Su Bing a remote middle finger.
The biology teacher's voice was still dragging on for such a long time, making people fall asleep. Gu Chaoming felt that if the school rated the teacher who could lull students to sleep the best, the biology teacher would definitely be the first, and he deserved it.
Gu Chaoming could tell his sleepiness when he wrote his homework underneath. After finishing his homework, he looked at Lin Jianfan next to him. Lin Jianfan, like him, was also doing his homework, and the yogurt he finished drinking was placed by the table.
Gu Chaoming smiled when he saw the yogurt box beside the table, and asked Lin Jianfan quietly, "What homework are you doing?"
The homework and the hypnosis of the biology teacher made Gu Chaoming a little tired. He lay on the table and looked at Lin Jianfan.
Lin Jianfan looked at him and said nothing.
"If you don't tell me if you're writing some cheats, you can't share it with our scumbags."
Lin Jianfan said quickly, "No, I'm not a scholar."
Gu Chaoming saw his flustered look and smiled: "I'm just joking, see if you're in a hurry."
Lin Jianfan held the pen and stared at Gu Chaoming. Gu Chaoming said to him, "If you write yours, I will sleep first."
Gu Chaoming closed his eyes and slept on the table facing Lin Jianfan.
In the darkness with his eyes closed, drowsiness gradually started. In the dimness, Gu Chaoming heard the sound of Lin Jianfan's pen swiping across the page, mixed with the video sound from the biology teacher on the podium.
Gu Chaoming fell into a deep sleep, and Lin Jianfan glanced at him and saw that his chest rose and fell evenly, his nose was breathing smoothly, and he looked like he was asleep.
After confirming that Gu Chaoming was asleep, Lin Jianfan turned over the scrap paper that he had hurriedly turned over when Gu Chaoming came to ask him a question just now.
On that page of draft paper was a drawing of a young man sitting and doing his homework. The young man in the drawing lowered his head slightly and looked serious.
Lin Jianfan turned his head to peek at him and continued to finish the painting.
After completing the painting, Lin Jianfan peeked at Gu Chaoming's sleeping face, and picked up the pen again. Soon after, a boy sleeping on his stomach appeared on the draft paper, with a quiet sleeping face, the same boy who was sitting and doing his homework.
Gu Chaoming woke up, he didn't get up, but quietly opened his eyes to see what Lin Jianfan was doing, and was soon discovered by Lin Jianfan who stole his painting.
Gu Chaoming's slitted eyes met Lin Jianfan's line of sight, and Lin Jianfan kept staring curiously at his eyes that he wanted to keep open. Under Lin Jianfan's gaze, Gu Chaoming had to surrender, opened his eyes and sat up, clearing his throat when he just woke up.
Gu Chaoming suddenly pulled his neck without warning to see what Lin Jianfan was doing, and Lin Jianfan immediately closed the draft book in a panic.
Lin Jianfan moved too fast, Gu Chaoming didn't see anything, and pretended to say, "I saw it all, your yogurt painting is pretty good."
yogurt? Didn't Gu Chaoming see it? Lin Jianfan flipped through his draft again.
"Have you studied before?" Gu Chaoming asked, "Oh, by the way, when you introduced yourself, it seemed that you had studied painting."
It seems that Gu Chaoming didn't see it, Lin Jian Fan Song nodded.
Gu Chaoming pointed at Cen Xili and said, "Xili has also learned it, and he is the one who writes the blackboard newspapers in our class."
Lin Jianfan smiled and said, "Then I can help in the future."
Gu Chaoming poked Cen Xili beside him with his elbow: "You'll be able to help you when you report on the blackboard in the future."
Cen Xili turned slightly to look at Lin Jianfan, and said to Gu Chaoming, "Is it to see Fan? I know he can draw, as long as you and Su Xiaoma don't make trouble."
Cen Xili bypassed Gu Chaoming and said to Lin Jianfan, "Don't let him and Su Bing get close to the blackboard."
"Isn't that one time?" Gu Chaoming said.
Cen Xili couldn't help sighing. Once Cen Xi set up a blackboard newspaper, Gu Chaoming and Su Bing stayed to help, saying that they wanted to help, but the two of them were fighting in the classroom, and they had done things like fighting with brooms.
Cen Xili stood on a chair and drew with chalk in his hand, and behind him was the sound of the two of them fighting with a broom.
As soon as Cen Xili finished painting, the two of them accidentally splashed water on the blackboard newspaper. If they painted, they didn't paint, which made Cen Xili angry.
Lin Jianfan looked at them and smiled, and asked Cen Xili, "I heard you won an award?"
Referring to the word "winning", Lin Jianfan saw that the smile on Gu Chaoming's face slowly disappeared, returning to a dull appearance, and even a trace of displeasure flashed, obviously he didn't want to talk about it.
As the saying goes, which pot is not opened, which one should be raised, Lin Jianfan felt that he mentioned that the pot was not opened. Lin Jian Fan Gang hesitated to say something else and skip this topic, but Cen Xili smiled in his usual style and said, "It's just a small prize."
That's right, Lin Jianfan brought the pot of unboiled water. Cen Xili won a not-so-famous award, and the protagonist of the painting handed over was You Xin, which is why Gu Chaoming didn't want to mention it.
Gu Chaoming had seen that painting. Gu Chaoming didn't know much about painting, but he also knew beauty and ugliness. When Cen Xili took them to the studio and saw the painting, Gu Chaoming was indeed surprised.
The painted paper is fixed on a wooden drawing board, and the edge of the drawing board is stained with colorful paint, while the person in the painting is standing by the window and smiling faintly. Outside the window is a red gradient cloud like a burning cloud, but the birds that happen to fly are also melted into this burning red.
Passionate, vigorous, lively.
Gu Chaoming did not comment on his painting skills, he only knew that he was amazed by this painting at that time. The people in the paintings hadn't annoyed him so much then, and he hadn't discounted his arm either.
The person in the painting went upstairs and walked beside Cen Xili, silent and did not speak.
It's his character, not his character.
You Xin's silence today is completely different from when Gao Yi asked him to be a model. Today's You Xin has been silent, with only a few words, while You Xin, who modeled for Cen Xili that time, talked a lot like a small talk, and it could even be said to be a little noisy.
Cen Xili deceived You Xin to be his own model on the grounds that he could not find a model for the competition. On the surface, it was just a coincidence, but it was actually Cen Xili who had planned it for a long time.
Bad thoughts that only he knows.
"Then what should I do?" You Xin agreed without the slightest doubt.
"Just try not to move." Cen Xili said as he sorted out the painting supplies.
"Should you find a good pose or scene? Have you decided how to draw it?" You Xin asked as he paced beside Cen Xili.
Cen Xili shook his head, then You Xin turned left and right in the studio, looking for something that could be used as a prop, raised and lowered his hands and feet, looking for a good-looking pose.
Seeing how busy he was, Cen Xili smiled faintly behind the set up drawing board.
You Xin took out a textbook from his schoolbag, leaned against the window and asked Cen Xili, "How about this?"
Cen Xili raised his head and glanced at You Xin, who was pretending to be melancholy, but smiled silently. You Xin brought another chair and placed it in front of Cen Xili's drawing board, sitting upside down and asking, "How about this?"
Cen Xili still laughed.
You Xin sat on the chair and said, "Don't just laugh, has the master painter thought about what to paint? I'm a little model who can pose well."
Cen Xili said, "The master painter hasn't thought about it yet. You can pose whatever pose you want. You pose for me to paint."
The master painter has no idea in his head, just watching his models keep changing poses.
He just wanted to draw him, he didn't think about the rest.
You Xin asked, "You can play freely?"
Cen Xili said, "You can come as you like."
During this time, You Xin changed several props and postures, but finally chose the simplest one - standing by the window.
"I'll just stand here, you can draw whatever you want." You Xin said.
Soon, You Xin, who tried to keep still, discovered the drawbacks of this posture, standing was too tiring. From time to time, he was lazy to look at the physical trainees who were training on the playground outside the window, and from time to time he looked at Cen Xili, who was hiding behind the drawing board and drawing seriously.
Cen Xili's hair hangs down softly, his arms are raised, and they are waving up and down the drawing board. You Xin regretted it and should have chosen a chair to sit on.
You Xin looked at Cen Xili, who was drawing seriously, in a daze and relieved his boredom. The studio was very quiet. You Xin stared at Cen Xili, at the extent of his blinking, at his waving arms.
After a while, You Xin asked, "Is the painting ready?"
Cen Xili shook his head: "Not yet."
After a while, You Xin asked again, "Isn't it finished yet?"
Cen Xili said, "Not so fast."
You Xin didn't realize that he was a little coquettish and said, "Your model is tired."
Just two words "your" are enough for Cen Xili to stop writing.
Cen Xili calmly put away his pause, continued to paint, and packed his little beating away without a sound.
"Wait, please... my model... eat."
my model.
After countless revisions to the drawing, Cen Xili was finally satisfied.
Later, when coloring, Cen Xili held the palette and looked at more than 20 colors on the table. When he drew the line draft that day, Cen Xili's eyes were all on his model, and he had long forgotten the color of the sky outside the window that day.
Cen Xili looked at the boy in the painting, the brush in his hand stretched out to the hot and warm red in the palette.
The window is a gradient of red, his model is red, hot red.
And he was the bird that was annihilated in the hot red.
