After lunch, Yu Zhi went back to his room to take a nap and saw Meng Yingnian had changed his clothes.

Yu Zhi looked puzzled: "Are you going out?"

Meng Yingnian fastened the last button and said, "Well, I still have to go back to the company. You should have a good rest at home."

He walked over and gave Yu Zhi a brief kiss.

When Yu Zhi woke up, he saw the flowers that Meng Yingnian had given him today, which were peonies and peonies.

Just by placing it there, without any excessive decoration, it is already the most beautiful flower.

Yu Zhi still put the flowers neatly into the vase. In the afternoon, he was drawing in the study. Deng Yang brought in fruit, snacks and coffee.

When Yu Zhi was drawing, he didn't work like Meng Yingnian, who would hardly move for half a day. He would occasionally look up and think for a while.

If there is something nearby, eat or drink a few bites; if not, just leave it alone.

If he was in the studio, Yu Zhi would basically not eat or drink. The painting environment for art students is not very clean, and it is impossible to keep it tidy even if he wants to.

Even if he didn't have mysophobia, Yu Zhi wouldn't be able to eat in that environment, especially since he had to get up and wash his hands, which was very troublesome, so Yu Zhi tried not to move if he could.

Yu Zhi is considered to be the more talented one, but everyone needs inspiration when creating. Works created solely by skills are soulless.

There will also be bottlenecks during the creative process, and the creative process will come to a standstill. Inspiration is a very mysterious thing. Sometimes you can even dream about it, or sometimes you can get inspiration from seeing or hearing something.

But when there is nothing, there is nothing, and you can’t think of it no matter how hard you think.

Therefore, Yu Zhi has the habit of recording at any time. He writes down whatever he thinks of, including the time, place, event and source of inspiration. The success of doing things is often achieved through these details.

Drawings and creations are two different things. The drawings written for the owner inherit the will of others, and are almost never perfect enough to satisfy the other party. We can only try our best to restore the owner's imagination.

Yu Zhi had a difficult time when he first took on the manuscript. It required repeated revisions, and both parties did not quite understand each other's meaning. At the same time, Yu Zhi also learned the first lesson of society: to bow to money.

When people have no money, they are not allowed to have their own thoughts.

From nothing to something, from barely having enough to eat and wear to being able to maintain a life, the bitterness involved is self-evident.

Yu Zhi hopes that one day he will be able to create freely without having to consider too many external factors, and simply create for the sake of creation.

He is still working hard for it.

Yu Zhi was in the study and didn't notice the sky outside until Meng Yingnian pushed the door open and realized it was already evening.

"I'm back." Yu Zhi looked down at the time and found that it was indeed past Meng Yingnian's working hours.

"Zhizhi, come out and rest for a while. Deng Yang said you have been bored in the study all afternoon." Meng Yingnian walked straight to the desk and pulled Yu Zhi up from the chair.

When Yu Zhi stood up, he felt uncomfortable all over, his shoulders and waist were sore. He stood up and stretched a little, then followed Meng Yingnian out of the study.

As they walked, Meng Yingnian said, "Let's go to my parents' house for dinner tonight."

"it is good."

Meng Hengze and Zheng Yuanhui would occasionally invite them over for dinner. Yu Zhi's relationship with them had always been lukewarm, but it wasn't to the point of causing any conflicts.

Neither too warm nor too distant, keeping it at a just right scale.

At first, the two of them were prejudiced against Yu Zhi. Zheng Yuanhui spoke with sarcasm, and Meng Hengze even showed his contempt for Yu Zhi on his face. Later, Meng Yuanshan and Xu Yaru supported Yu Zhi and made the decision.

Later, Zheng Yuanhui specially found Yu Zhidao to apologize, and Meng Hengze was no longer so extreme, and they lived in peace in this family.

But Yu Zhi was not a young person who was good at pleasing the elders. He had no experience in getting along with the elders. He chose to ignore Yu Chengkun and Wang Jiamin most of the time, and even if he communicated with them, he would not say anything nice to them.

He had originally thought that Meng Yingnian might feel embarrassed being caught in the middle, but Meng Yingnian had given himself a heads-up from the beginning, telling him to do whatever made him happy and not to care too much about what others thought.

Yu Zhi no longer bothered about it. After all, it was impossible for him to please everyone, so he just let everything take its course.

Now that the weather is getting warmer, there is no rush to eat. Meng Yingnian and Yu Zhi strolled to the yard where Meng Hengze and Zheng Yuanhui were.

To be fair, the scenery of Meng's house is not much worse than the scenic spots outside. From the decoration to the green plants, the house is taken care of every day, and everything is managed with care.

In the huge Meng Mansion, the owner's family has no more than ten people. The rest of the servants, drivers, and chefs each have their own responsibilities, serving the owner's food, clothing, housing and transportation.

When I arrived at the door, I happened to meet Wen Yiying and Suosuo.

Whenever Suosuo saw someone, he would greet them warmly: "Uncle, aunt."

Wen Yiying was still as gentle as usual: "You are back."

"Sister-in-law." Yu Zhi and Meng Yingnian said in unison.

Meng Yingnian picked up Suosuo and held her in his arms, and Suosuo giggled at the laughter.

Suosuo has a close relationship with Meng Yingnian. Meng Yingnian is the first family member he saw after he was born besides Wen Yiying. It was also Suosuo's birth that helped him get rid of hatred.

The people who reacted most strongly to Meng Yingtian's death were his childhood sweetheart, his younger brother who had experienced the car accident with him, his parents, and his grandparents. No one was not heartbroken to see their son die.

Meng Yingnian held Suosuo in his arms, and Yu Zhi and Wen Yiying followed behind as they walked into the house.

Wen Yiying took Suosuo to a parent-child camp two days ago and just returned today.

Suosuo vividly explained to the adults his experiences of the past two days, and even added actions when necessary. He was so cute.

Meng Hengze usually doesn't have a good face for anyone, even his father and son are no exception, but he is very doting on this little grandson.

Yu Zhi even saw a kind look on his face, which was really rare.

I heard that Meng Hengze and Meng Yingnian had frequent conflicts in the past, and it was Meng Yingtian who mediated between them.

But now that Meng Yingnian is with Yu Zhi, his temper may have improved, and he rarely argues with Meng Hengze. Meng Hengze probably also feels guilty for doing something wrong last time, and has restrained himself a lot, and the relationship between the two has eased slightly.

Meng Hengze and Zheng Yuanhui asked them to come over today just to have a meal together during the holiday, and Yu Zhi happened to be at home.

Yu Zhi has been in the Meng family for almost a year. Whether from the perspective of Meng Hengze and Zheng Yuanhui themselves or from the perspective of other people in the Meng family, it has been proven that Yu Zhi is different from other people in the Yu family.

On the contrary, after he came, Meng Yingnian's pheromone disorder no longer worsened, their relationship became better and better, and Meng Yingnian no longer focused on work and ignored his health like before.

"Okay, let's eat." Zheng Yuanhui greeted everyone at the right time.

Yu Zhi was now quite familiar with them, and there was no longer a situation where most of the dishes on the table were ones that Yu Zhi didn't like. It was just like a normal family meal together.

After dinner, we sat together, chatting and laughing, and talked about our work, study and life.

Yu Zhi has one last day of vacation. He is not from northern Beijing and doesn’t know many people there; he can count them on one hand.

On weekdays, except when Lin Yunsong and Zhou Yang asked him to go out, he basically went between home and Meng Yingnian's company.

Either he was creating drawings at home, or he was going to the company with Meng Yingnian to draw drawings. Yu Zhi didn't find it boring. This was much better than his previous life.

His life in Shanghai was indeed wonderful, but it was booed. His current life was the stable life he had always dreamed of.

There is no need to endure Yu Chengkun's contempt for living expenses, no insults from Wang Jiamin and Yu Jia, no backstabbing friends and disgusting classmates and parents, and no need to work hard and worry about academic studies.

He gained and lost at the same time, he lost something but also gained a lot.

Meng Yingnian still gets up early to go to work. Yu Zhi sometimes gets up with him, and sometimes stays in bed a little longer.

They had breakfast together today, and Yu Zhi sent Meng Yingnian to the gate of the courtyard. He was too lazy to follow Meng Yingnian to the company.

Yu Zhi is now able to use fitness equipment skillfully. He did not rush to the study, but went to the gym to exercise for the whole morning.

He felt that fitness was somewhat effective and he felt a little stronger. Although not as muscular as Meng Yingnian, it was much better than before.

Yu Zhi used to be considered thin, but now he has gained weight but is not fat. He is more well-proportioned, and his flesh is firmer. He also eats much more than before.

In the evening, he returned to school after dinner as usual. Meng Yingnian gave him some fruits to supplement his vitamins.

There are actually fruit vendors in the school, but Yu Zhi can’t eat much by himself, and together with Lin Yunsong, they can’t finish one or two pounds, and he goes home every week.

Meng Yingnian brought him two servings of fruit, which they could finish the day after tomorrow at the latest, so there was no need to worry about it becoming stale or spoiling.

Meng Yingnian took care of Yu Zhi's food, clothing, housing, transportation, from head to toe, eating, drinking, and having fun, and he enjoyed it all.

After Lin Yunsong returned home yesterday, he played with his friends again. School started before he could even recover from the shock.

It's probably like a withdrawal reaction, suddenly entering a new environment from one environment.

The school is no longer a new environment, and it is not the first time for everyone to come here, but holiday syndrome is inevitable during every short and long holiday.

Lin Yunsong hugged Yu Zhi and lamented the passing of the holiday, wishing it would love him again.

Yu Zhi had no choice but to comfort her: "It's okay, there's still the Dragon Boat Festival at the end of the month."

"That's right." Lin Yunsong was just happy for a moment, then said, "But it's just the beginning of the month."

Then he changed the subject: "However, after the Dragon Boat Festival it will be my birthday, Zhizhi must come to my house to celebrate his birthday together."

"And Yangyang, I'll introduce my friends to you later."

Lin Yunsong no longer had time to worry and began to think about who to invite to his birthday party and how to celebrate it.

I'm so busy now that I don't have time to think about anything else.

Speaking of birthdays, Yu Zhi remembered that Meng Yingnian's birthday was also in the summer, probably during the summer vacation. Yu Zhi still had plenty of time to prepare birthday gifts.

Meng Yingnian gave him nineteen gifts last year. Yu Zhi calculated the money he had on hand and found it extremely difficult to give Meng Yingnian thirty-three gifts, even giving him nineteen in return.

Yu Zhi silently comforted himself that the quality of gifts is more important than the quantity, and one should still give within one's means, as not everyone is as wealthy as Meng Yingnian.

Yu Zhi touched the peace locket around his neck, which was the 19th birthday gift given to him by Meng Yingnian. He also hoped that Meng Yingnian would be safe.

He had no idea for a moment and simply stopped thinking about it. Lin Yunsong's birthday was approaching.

Last time, Lin Yunsong gave him a gift, so he should return the favor. Thinking about it, Yu Zhi felt that he should take on a few more manuscripts.

In the end, no one could figure it out. Instead, Lin Yunsong had endless ideas. Sometimes he said he wanted to hold a party, and sometimes he said he wanted to hold it on the lawn.

On the first day of school after the holiday, the counselor announced that there would be a national college student sculpture design competition soon. All students in the sculpture department could sign up and encouraged everyone to prepare actively.

This is a national competition with considerable value, targeting all sculpture students from major universities, with a particularly large number of sophomores, juniors, and seniors registering.

The duration of study for sculpture majors is either four-year or five-year, depending on the specific school arrangements.

Some students who are about to graduate are unwilling to focus on competitions.

Freshmen have been enrolled for less than a year and have limited academic knowledge, especially in sculpture. Most of them are still in the copying stage, and their homework is all trivial. Only a few of them have real creative ability.

But fortunately, Yu Zhi happens to be one of them.
