A young man in a white shirt stood in the bushes, against the backdrop of large red maple leaves. The breeze blew his soft black hair. The bright sunshine gave his handsome face a layer of almost transparent golden color.
He held his head high, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his whole body was filled with a kind of pride and complacency that was very pleasant to see.
When Yuan Lin saw the person on the screen, she suddenly laughed and said with a giggle, "Honey, who is this ugly guy?"
Jiang Qin got up and chased after Yuan Lin, shouting angrily, "Yuan Lin, you bad guy, give the painting back to me - give it back to me now."
Yuan Lin grabbed the drawing paper and circled around the maple trees and Jiang Qin, refusing to give the drawing back. She said, "No. I won't give it back. If you don't tell me who this ugly freak is, I won't give it to you-----"
"Give me-----"
"No."
"Will you give it to me?"
"No."
"Yuan Lin-----" Jiang Qin stopped.
Her cheeks flushed, and she looked at Yuan Lin with tears in her eyes, looking very angry and ashamed.
A girl’s feelings are always poetic!
Their vague love for a boy is their most private and sensitive taboo. They are ashamed to admit it and annoyed to see it in public.
Yuan Lin's behavior undoubtedly exposed her feelings in front of the person involved, making her feel ashamed and angry, and tears flowed uncontrollably.
Seeing Jiang Qin crying, Yuan Lin hurried over.
She stuffed the drawing paper into Jiang Qin's hand, hugged Jiang Qin's shoulders and said with heartache: "Darling, don't cry, don't cry, I was just joking with you. It's my fault, it's all my fault - I won't ask anymore, okay? I won't ask again."
Jiang Qin wiped his tears with the back of his hand and cried even more sadly.
"I didn't cry even though you drew my idol Andy Lau so ugly, why are you crying?" Fang Yan said helplessly.
"You're annoying." Jiang Qin stamped his feet in anger. "I already said it's not Andy Lau."
"Nong Bo? I felt that this person was somewhat similar to Nong Bo - so you -" Fang Yan pretended that he did not recognize the person on the drawing paper and deliberately led in the wrong direction.
"Who said it was Nongbo? Why should I paint him?" Jiang Qin became even angrier, so angry that he forgot to continue crying. "I can paint whoever I want to paint, what's it got to do with you?"
"Yes, yes. It's none of my business." Fang Yan raised his hands in surrender. He knew that he must not provoke this girl at this time. "Pack up quickly. I'll take you down the mountain."
"I'm not going back today." Jiang Qin said.
"What?" Fang Yan looked at Jiang Qin with wide eyes.
Even Yuan Lin looked at her companion in surprise. Didn’t this girl discuss it with her before making a decision
"I said, we won't go back tonight." Jiang Qin said. She turned to look at Yuan Lin and said, "Haven't you always wanted to watch the sunrise at Xixia Mountain? We won't go back tonight. We'll get up early tomorrow to watch the sunrise. We can also take our drawing board to draw it. Didn't the teacher also say that only by experiencing it in person can we draw the kind of beautiful scenery that makes people tremble. This is a good opportunity."
"What do you mean it's a good opportunity?" Yuan Lin laughed inwardly. Before Fang Yan came, why didn't I hear that you were going to stay overnight on the top of the mountain to watch the sunrise? Why didn't I hear you say that this was a good opportunity
"But we agreed to go home tonight." Yuan Lin said worriedly. "If we don't go back, won't your mother be worried? My mother must be worried to death too."
"Idiot. Why don't we just call and tell them?" Jiang Qin said. "Just tell them we want to paint the sunrise and stay in the mountains tonight."
"No, no." Yuan Lin shook her head. "My mother would definitely not agree - and your mother would definitely not agree either. We two girls -"
Jiang Qin looked at Fang Yan, hesitant to speak.
Fang Yan pretended not to understand the pleading in Jiang Qin's eyes and said, "Yuan Lin is right. If you two girls don't go home at night, your family will definitely be worried. If you really want to watch the sunrise and paint the sunrise, then go back and discuss it with your parents. Only come if they agree, or let them accompany you - isn't that better?"
"What a bullshit." Jiang Qin pouted. "Who wants to travel with their parents?"
Yuan Lin also nodded desperately and said, "That's right. You are not allowed to do this or that. It's so annoying."
"------" Fang Yan was very hurt. He ignored the rebellious psychology of children of this age.
Jiang Qin seemed to have made up his mind. He looked at Yuan Lin and said, "You call your mother and I'll call mine. We'll tell them we're with a lot of classmates and nothing will happen. We'll stay at the top of the mountain tonight and get up early tomorrow morning to watch the sunrise. We'll go back after watching the sunrise. What could happen?"
Yuan Lin was also persuaded by Jiang Qin and said, "Okay. Then let's call now?"
"Yes." Jiang Qin nodded. "If my mother doesn't believe it, you can stand by and testify for me. If your mother doesn't believe it, I will also testify for you----"
"Happy cooperation." The two little girls clapped their hands happily.
"------" Fang Yan was full of black lines. From their conversation, it can be heard that they must have done a lot of things like helping each other conceal and deceive each other.
Seeing Jiang Qin taking out his cell phone to make a call, Fang Yan stopped him and said, "Do you really want to stay?"
"Of course." Jiang Qin said.
"For art," said Yuan Lin.
"Then I'll make the call for you." Fang Yan said.
"Will you help us fight?" Jiang Qin looked at Fang Yan uncertainly. If her mother knew that Fang Yan was also in Xixia Mountain, wouldn't she be more determined to recruit them back
"Yes. I'll help you fight." Fang Yan nodded. "This isn't a bad thing. Why do you have to lie to them? If they don't know your true situation, they'll be worried and scared the whole night - being a parent isn't easy. Why make them worry unnecessarily?"
"But-----what if my mother doesn't agree?" Jiang Qin said worriedly.
"I will explain it to her and she will agree." Fang Yan said.
"just in case-----"
"If you don't agree, I will take you down the mountain and you can take the bus back." Fang Yan said.
"------"
Jiang Qin and Yuan Lin discussed it and finally decided to compromise.
Jiang Qin dialed his mother's number on his cell phone and said, "Mom, Fang Yan wants to talk to you----"
Fang Yan took the phone from Jiang Qin and said with a smile: "Sister Li, I'm Fang Yan. It's been a long time since we last met. I really miss the food you cooked."
"Fang Yan-----" Mrs. Li's voice paused for a moment. "If you miss me, come to my house for dinner when you have time. Are you with your dear? Is there anything?"
"Sister Li, this is what happened." Fang Yan explained with a smile, "I brought students from our class to travel to Xixia Mountain, and happened to meet Jiang Qin and Yuan Lin, two girls, who came to the mountain to paint. They heard that my students and I were going to stay overnight in a hotel on the mountain and watch the sunrise tomorrow morning, so they wanted to join us. I said I would call you to apply, and if you agree, I will allow them to stay. If you don't agree, I will send them down the mountain and let them take a bus home."
Mrs. Li thought for a while, then laughed heartily and said, "They want to watch the sunrise, so let them stay. I would definitely be worried if it were just the two of them. However, with Teacher Fang here, I believe you can take good care of them."
"I will take good care of them." Fang Yan said as if to assure.
"Fang Yan, thank you." Mrs. Li said gratefully.
"Nothing. Anyway, I have other students to take care of - Jiang Qin is also my student."
"Yeah." Mrs. Li responded. "Fang Yan, I'm sorry."
"-----You haven't done me any wrong." Fang Yan smiled. "You just love your daughter too much."
"Yes." Mrs. Li said. "As a mother, how can you not love your own children?"
After hanging up the phone, Fang Yan looked at Jiang Qin, who was looking at him with worry, and said, "Your mother agreed."
"Really?" Jiang Qin looked incredulous and said, "You really agreed?"
"I really agree."
"Why did she agree?" Jiang Qin asked puzzledly.
"Because I believe in her and she believes in me." Fang Yan said with a smile.
Jiang Qin shook his head and said, "I don't understand."
She really didn't understand. If her mother believed Fang Yan, why would she kick Fang Yan out of the house
"It's my turn, it's my turn." Yuan Lin said.
She dialed her mother's number, said a few words into the phone, and then handed the phone to Fang Yan.
Fang Yan picked up the phone, but before he could speak, a pleasant female voice came from the phone: "Is this Teacher Fang Yan? I know you. Yuan Lin said she wanted to watch the sunrise at Xixia Mountain, so I'll ask you to help take care of her."
"I will." Fang Yan agreed.
"Thank you for your help. I'll treat you to a meal when I have the chance." The woman said warmly and kindly.
"You're too polite." Fang Yan said with a smile.
After hanging up the phone, Fang Yan began to doubt the authenticity of all this. Would Yuan Lin deliberately dial a number and let someone pretend to be her mother to talk to her
However, listening to the woman's voice, she didn't sound like a liar at all, because a liar doesn't have such a gentle and determined temperament.
Jiang Qin and Yuan Lin's families both agreed, and Fang Yan no longer objected to them spending the night in Xixia Mountain.
Fang Yan led the way with two tool boxes in his hand, while Jiang Qin and Yuan Lin followed behind with drawing boards on their backs.
Not far behind the three of them, a couple wearing sun hats followed them at a moderate pace. They took pictures leisurely, but from time to time they cast their eyes on the three of them. (To be continued)
