very close to the clouds

At first, when Shen Yanbai posted that Weibo on the Internet, he never thought that so many people would come to ask about the painting, especially when a familiar former partner in his circle asked him to come here, Shen Yanbai suddenly burst into tears. Came up with something else.

This partner, Shen Yanbai, has cooperated many times. Although the two of them can't be called friends, they can chat a few words when they meet. When Shen Yanbai had an accident, he didn't make trouble like others. Instead, he chatted privately. After reviewing some of his situations, he was a little relieved. Although he didn't stand up, compared with those other people, it was already a timely help.

So when the other party asked about Shen Yanbai, he naturally moved his mind.

"Actually, I just think this painting suits my taste, so I want to buy it," Xue Zhen said, "You can ask for the price. Also, I would like to ask this teacher if he has any other paintings to buy? I moved to a new house. There is a lack of decoration. It would be better if you could draw a custom painting for me."

"Success," Shen Yanbai said while soaking his feet, "I'll ask for you. I'll get back to you later."

Xue Zhen thanked him over there, before Shen Yanbai lifted his feet, the water was already cold.

Jiang Zhongyu glanced at him: "Finally finished soaking? My feet are all white."

"Someone I know wants to buy your paintings," Shen Yanbai said, "Do you sell them?"

"Which one does he like?" Jiang Zhongyu said while lifting Shen Yanbai's feet and placing them on his towel-covered legs, helping him wipe off the water, "Just give him whichever one he likes. "

"I'm going to pour water." Shen Yanbai said as he stepped on the ground, carried the basin to the bathroom, and said as he walked, "I don't know him very well, so it's nothing if you sell it to him."

Jiang Zhongyu smiled: "It's okay."

Shen Yanbai set up the water basin before he came out, threw himself into Jiang Zhongyu's arms, and said, "Jiang Zhongyu, have you ever thought about drawing more? Do you remember that I posted a Weibo before with What about your paintings, in fact, many people asked me about you before, wanting to buy your paintings."

Jiang Zhongyu paused and said, "Painting is my hobby."

"It's great that you can make money from your hobbies." Shen Yanbai said, "I think your paintings are quite professional. You see, there are quite a few people who like them."

Jiang Zhongyu still told him to think about it.

Although Shen Yanbai didn't know what Jiang Zhongyu was hesitating about, he still gave him enough time.

On the day the two left for the island, Shen Yanbai received another call from Xue Zhen. Shen Yanbai turned on the loudspeaker and said, "He said it was for you."

Xue Zhen was very pleasantly surprised: "Really! Then I really have to treat you to dinner. How about tonight instead of choosing a date?"

Shen Yanbai said politely: "It's really unnecessary."

"Old Shen, it's not interesting for you to be like this. We've known each other for so many years. Don't you think you'll lose face when I invite you to dinner?" Xue Zhen said, "Besides, I want to talk to you about some business matters. .”

"Business?" Shen Yanbai was stunned for a moment, "What business?"

"You also know that I started to work behind the scenes a few years ago," Xue Zhen said, "I have also made a few movies in the past few years, and the results are not bad. No, I have a new book, and there is a character in it that I think is very special. It suits you, so I want you to try the play."

Shen Yanbai was a little moved immediately, since his accident until now, he has almost no relationship with the book, no one came to him, Xue Zhen is willing to give him this opportunity, naturally he will not give up pretending to be arrogant.

Shen Yanbai responded almost immediately: "Okay, see you tonight." He turned his head to glance at Jiang Zhongyu, who was carrying luggage, and added, "I still bring someone over, don't you mind?"

The meeting with Xue Zhen was like a small fan meeting.Xue Zhen learned that Jiang Zhongyu was the painter he admired, and shook hands with him while bowing to him, which made Jiang Zhongyu a little embarrassed.Only then did Shen Yanbai calm down the strange atmosphere: "Sit down."

Jiang Zhongyu sat next to Shen Yanbai.

Xue Zhen sat across from the two of them and said with a smile: "Brother Jiang, you don't know. I really like your paintings and style. If you have any other works, I would like to buy two more."

Jiang Zhongyu joked, "You don't have to pay for one picture, but not for the others."

"Of course!" Xue Zhen said cheerfully, "Where did you learn from?"

Jiang Zhongyu said with a smile: "I draw casually by myself, there is no teacher."

"That's a talent." Xue Zhen, who usually looks quite normal, suddenly became polite when talking about paintings. "Do you have a Weibo account? I follow you."

"He doesn't have one," Shen Yanbai said, "I'll apply for one when I go back tomorrow."

Jiang Zhongyu didn't shake his head or nod, he just smiled.

When the dishes came, the hot pot was eaten, and the whole room smelled spicy.Xue Zhen turned behind the scenes, looked a little fatter than before, and had no taboos. Shen Yanbai was different. Seeing so many delicious dishes, he only dared to swallow, and suddenly he was a little envious of Xue Zhen.

But asking him to make movies or something, he really can't do it, he just has some talent for guessing characters' psychology, and he doesn't have much talent for making movies.

"Talk about the business." Xue Zhen opened the mouth, "At first I wanted to contact Ms. Liu, but then I happened to come across the matter of painting, so I said I should just tell you directly, just to please you. I just sent you the script on WeChat , you have to wait and see, if you really want to shoot, it will probably be after the next year, and the time is quite tight."

Shen Yanbai opened the script and glanced at it, and the filming location turned out to be in Hoh Xil.He glanced at Jiang Zhongyu, and felt that the possibility of picking up the play by himself increased by 20%.

"Success. I'll look at it when I go back." Shen Yanbai nodded and ate a piece of green vegetable leaf.

Jiang Zhongyu picked up a piece of meat for him and said, "Just eat one piece, it's not a big problem."

Shen Yanbai couldn't help eating, but he couldn't control it, and ate several pieces in a row.Jiang Zhongyu didn't allow him to eat at this time, and Shen Yanbai scolded him, "If you think about it, it's as soon as you think about it."

Jiang Zhongyu pinched his shoulder and laughed straight: "Isn't it because I'm afraid that someone will have a stomach ache when they go home at night after eating too much?"

Shen Yanbai stretched out his leg under the table and kicked him.

"Ah." Xue Zhen jumped up suddenly, "Old Shen, what are you doing kicking me like that?"

"Pfft." There was still something Jiang Zhongyu didn't understand, the tea in his mouth almost spewed out, he lowered his head and laughed for a while, laughing until Shen Yanbai's earlobes turned red.

"Stop laughing." Shen Yan gave him a blank look, which meant "you will feel better when you go back at night".

"Stop laughing." Jiang Zhongyu explained to Xue Zhen, "He's just joking around, don't worry about it."

There is nothing Xue Zhen doesn't understand. What is the relationship between the two of them? Just watching for a minute is enough to understand. What's more, the two of them didn't intend to hide it from him.

In this way, some things are easy to say.Xue Zhen raised his glass and touched Jiang Zhongyu's, and asked him: "There is another character in this book, does Mr. Jiang consider playing it?"

This time Jiang Zhongyu didn't give him any time to think, so he directly declined: "I'm not very interested in acting."

"It's a pity," Xue Zhen sighed, "Your looks are the most scarce in the circle right now. You only need to make your debut, and you will be appointed to be popular."

Jiang Zhongyu smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment."
