moon like rain

In the past three days, I will stay at your house for one night, and you will stay at my house for one night. One will not go to study, and the other will not go to work, enjoying the leisure after busy work and the relaxation before the game. In the afternoon of NO.17, the two The man packed his luggage and got on the train to Cangning City.

The ticket was booked late, Xiao Mengqian's seat was on the upper bunk, Ji Hefang looked at the upper bunk and thought for a while: "How about we switch?" Xiao Mengqian showed a strange look when she heard this sentence Looking at Ji Hefang in front of him with an indescribable expression, the smile deepened, but he still said: "I'll sleep on the upper bunk." After speaking, he added, "The current bed is so wide."

Ji Hefang asked: "What about before?"

Xiao Mengqian said that the last time I took the train to Luoze City when I was in the sixth grade, my father bought a hard seat, put a cushion under the seat, and slept there, and ran out to play in the middle. I just feel that the bed is so small, can I sleep more comfortably than my own little cushion?

Ji Hefang listened to Xiao Mengqian's brisk finish telling the story, and fell into deep thought for a moment. Seeing this, Xiao Mengqian pulled her back: "It's okay, we will keep the prize money for this competition and go to have fun after the college entrance examination." OK?"

Hearing this, Ji Hefang said to Xiao Mengqian in a strange tone: "Why do some people think they can win the prize without participating in the competition?"

This time Xiao Mengqian didn't reply to her again, but just pretended to look deeply at Ji Hefang, and then again, making Ji Hefang confused.

In the middle of the night, apart from the rattling sound of the train, there was only the ups and downs of snoring. Ji Hefang lost sleep due to the shaking and the constant snoring. The calf was stretched out, and the feet were dangling in the air looking for the stairs to come down. Ji Hefang quickly closed her eyes and pressed the quilt tightly.

Xiao Mengqian got out of bed carefully, and climbed onto Ji Hefang's bed in the middle berth. The air conditioner was turned on in the car, and Xiao Mengqian felt a little cold, so she couldn't do without the quilt, so she pulled the corner of Ji Hefang's quilt sideways, Twice, Xiao Mengqian pulled the quilt several times but the quilt did not come out, and was about to pull it again, but immediately dared not breathe nervously, Ji Hefang turned over and faced Xiao Mengqian.

Xiao Mengqian looked at Ji Hefang who was close at hand, looked again and again, and after making sure that Ji Hefang was not awake, she pulled the corner of the quilt again, this time it went well, Xiao Mengqian nodded in satisfaction, and gently pulled the quilt lie in.

Just as she was about to lie down, Ji Hefang's arm suddenly fell under her neck. Xiao Mengqian looked at Ji Hefang in a panic, but saw that Ji Hefang's eyes were still closed. Wrapped around her waist.

Xiao Mengqian thought to herself, Ji Hefang's sleeping habit is really bad, I need to get used to it, but suddenly I felt a hair itch between my neck, and when I opened my sleepy eyes, I saw Ji Hefang's eyes as if seeing a thief , Only one sentence fell into my ear: "Don't even think about leaving when you come."

a night without dreams,

At 09:30 in the morning, with the sound of the train whistle, Cangning City arrived.

The two smiled and said goodbye to the middle-aged couple opposite, and got out of the car with their luggage. Cangning City and Anze City are not at the same latitude. There are many mountains, rain and rivers here. The given address took a taxi to the hotel.

The competition time is three o'clock in the afternoon. The competition venue is on the first floor of the art exhibition hall opposite the hotel. After identifying the identity, divide them into groups according to pencil drawing, oil paint, and ink painting. It takes two hours to paint, and the results of the competition will be announced seven days later.

This time Xiao Mengqian signed up for oil painting. After lunch, Ji Hefang helped Xiao Mengqian tidy up the painting tools. At 02:30 in the afternoon, the two arrived at the competition venue early.

Because of the high standard of the competition, non-competition personnel are naturally not allowed to enter. Ji Hefang sent Xiao Mengqian to the door, pointed to the coffee shop over there and said, "I'll wait for you at the coffee shop, come on!"

Xiao Mengqian didn't go in after hearing this, but put the painting utensils on the ground, walked over to hug Ji Hefang, and said in her ear: "Then won't you give me a loving hug?"

Ji Hefang hugged her tightly.

At three o'clock, Xiao Mengqian returned the other competition topic in his hand to the staff. Looking at the topic of this painting, there was a touch of tenderness in the corner of his eyes. Without thinking, he unfolded the drawing paper on the easel and picked up the palette Start toning.

This action could not help but attract the attention of the six judges sitting in the back. This kind of competition can only participate in the outstanding young people in China. The two-hour competition time can be drawn in half an hour after some people have determined their ideas. .

But the difficulty is to determine the intention of the painting after seeing the title, because there is only one opportunity to color-grade and two pieces of drawing paper, so few contestants start color-grading within 5 minutes of the start of the competition.

The six judges couldn't help being a little curious, and couldn't help paying more attention to the girl who was grading.But Xiao Mengqian, who was color-grading according to the image in his mind, didn't notice it.

What the six judges didn't expect was that Xiao Mengqian, who started color grading so early, was not fast at painting, so that the teachers of the six judges started a big and small debate on this.

Lan Kexin is the only woman among the six judges. Although she is far away, she still sees a corner of Xiao Mengqian's canvas. The colors are very warm but also very complicated. Lan Kexin saw her pick up Use the smallest brush to outline in detail.

Therefore, he naturally questioned Yuan Haoyu, who was saying whether Xiao Mengqian was inexperienced for the first time.

As the debate between the two heated up and they were drinking water to take a rest, they took a look at Xiao Mengqian's painting progress. The door of the judge's room was pushed open, and a staff member placed the scroll in front of the six judges. The promenade outlined by violet and tender green leads to the depths of the garden. Although it has an end, it is like an endless dream. In the corner of the garden, butterflies are flying, and the swing is swaying. When Xin raised her eyes to look at the competition venue, she saw Xiao Mengqian, who had packed up her painting tools, was walking towards the outside of the venue under the guidance of the staff. As soon as she looked away, she heard He Lao, the oldest of the six, say: "This girl , Not bad." As soon as the words fell, the remaining five people looked at Mr. He in shock.

Mr. He's full name is He Lianshui, and he is already in his 36s, but the other five people all know that Mr. He learned painting at the age of five, and became famous in a children's painting competition at the age of six. The most shocking thing is that after the age of [-], he won the gold medal in the Allhold International Art Competition in Country C for three consecutive years. Since then, He Lao has become famous all over the world.

After the age of 40, the number of Mr. He's paintings decreased, and he no longer participated in competitions. It was only a painting exhibition held every three to five years, but it surprised the entire art world time and time again.

After saying this, Mr. He left the competition early today. The remaining five judges recalled the look in the eyes of Mr. He when he said that sentence just now. After thinking for a while, one of the judges said with difficulty: "Mr. Do you want to take in apprentices?"

When he became famous at the age of 40, Mr. He faced a swarm of interviews and scholars, closed the door for three days, and then held a press conference. At the press conference, Mr. He unfolded the canvas to the domestic and foreign media, three paintings, One picture is full of green lotuses, nine winding corridors, two people drinking together on the pavilion in the middle of the lake amidst the misty waves, the second picture is an oil painting, it is the city of Nardo in country C, and it is also the place where Mr. He won the gold medal. In the painting, the night is dark, and the lights of thousands of houses in the distance can be seen, and He Lao, who is wearing a windbreaker and carrying painting tools on the small road, is walking farther and farther away from the city. The third picture is a sketch, although it is only a profile, But one can imagine how graceful and graceful the woman in the painting is.

The three paintings were unfolded, and Mr. He left only one sentence: "He is only waiting for a predestined person to be his apprentice in this life. Besides, he will no longer participate in competitions, and will no longer accept interviews and apprenticeships." After finishing speaking, he turned around and left. The reporters and audience were left in an uproar and discussions.

The 67-year-old Mr. He felt that he was not old at all. He walked out of the side door of the exhibition hall with vigorous steps. The assistant waiting at the side rushed to meet him and asked Mr. He what other arrangements he had today. Mr. He waved his hand to signal the assistant to wait a moment Looking at a certain place, the assistant followed Mr. He's gaze, and saw that the sun was shining across the road in golden yellow, and the same brilliance shrouded the coffee shop. Opening the door and walking in, Ru Mo's long hair was also dyed.

In the coffee shop, Ji Hefang was sitting by the floor-to-ceiling windows. As soon as Xiao Mengqian came out of the exhibition hall, Ji Hefang saw her and raised her hand to call the waiter over.

Xiao Mengqian pushed open the door of the coffee shop and saw Ji Hefang waving to herself. She put the painting tools by the window and sat opposite Ji Hefang. Ji Hefang asked, "What are you painting today."

Xiao Mengqian thought of that painting, with a gentle look on the corner of her mouth, Ji Hefang became even more curious when she saw it: "What is what?"

Xiao Mengqian changed a serious face: "The competition requires that we cannot disclose it."

Ji Hefang had never participated in similar competitions, so she believed it and nodded seriously, "Okay, then I won't ask."

At this time, the waiter brought the drinks and food. Xiao Mengqian looked at the food on the table, two cakes, two macarons and two cups... Xiao Mengqian pointed to the two cups and asked: "What is this?" What?"

Ji Hefang smiled: "Take a sip before I tell you."

Xiao Mengqian took a sip through the straw: "It's delicious, what is this?"

Ji Hefang counted her fingers and said, "Well, milk tea, two teaspoons of Erguotou, a raw egg yolk and other ingredients."

Xiao Mengqian: "..."

Ji Hefang looked at Xiao Mengqian's disgusted expression and laughed loudly: "Oh, I can't laugh anymore, so I just asked you if it tastes good, or do you still drink it? Give it to me if you don't drink it." Ji Hefang laughed until she gasped. .

Xiao Meng frowned slightly: "Actually, it's really delicious." After speaking, he took another sip.

Ji Hefang raised her eyebrows at Xiao Mengqian in satisfaction: "This is egg honey, and I can make it myself, but it's best not to drink alcohol if you're underage, so I can only make it for you after our college entrance examination."

Xiao Mengqian thought for a while, she will be an adult in March next year, and Ji Hefang will be an adult in October this year. After the college entrance examination, the two of them have plenty of time, so they asked again: "You said there is Erguotou here?"

Ji Hefang nodded.

Xiao Mengqian: "I don't feel it." After speaking, he took another sip: "This time I tasted it."

After the two finished their meal, Ji Hefang found some subtle changes in the matter.

Ji Hefang: "Xiao Mengqian, pack up and go."

Xiao Mengqian nodded obediently and said, "Okay." The voice was sweet.At that time, Ji Hefang felt nothing unusual.

Ji Hefang went to check out, turned around and saw Xiao Mengqian staring at the door of the coffee shop in a daze, Ji Hefang walked over and said, "Let's go, open the door." Before Ji Hefang's hand touched the doorknob, she heard Xiao Mengqian He looked at himself with wide eyes, and said sweetly: "Open the door!"

Ji Hefang: "?"

Ji Hefang felt that something was wrong, the two went out of the coffee shop, Ji Hefang and Xiao Mengqian stood face to face, Ji Hefang said: "Mengqian, are you drunk?"

Xiao Mengqian was still very obedient: "Well, I'm drunk."

Ji Hefang: "How much is this?" Ji Hefang stretched out three fingers.

Xiao Mengqian: "This is three!" After she finished speaking, she leaned over, her eyes were full of compliments if I did the right thing.

Ji Hefang: "..." Speechless for a while, Ji Hefang asked again: "Who am I?"

Xiao Mengqian: "Ji Hefang," after a pause, the two eyes met, Ji Hefang saw Xiao Mengqian tilted her head slightly, her eyes were hazy and clear, after hearing the second half of the sentence, Ji Hefang understood Where does this glimmer of clarity come from.

Ji Hefang looked at Xiao Mengqian tilting her head and said to herself: "Xiao Mengqian's girlfriend."

Ji Hefang has seen what Xiao Mengqian looks like when she is drunk, and she is a good group. Of course, she will never tell Xiao Mengqian about her crisp movements when she asked her to take off her clothes to take a shower in the hotel and when she didn't have time to look back. The bright color you see.What surprised Ji Hefang even more was that she wanted to laugh and was relieved that Xiao Mengqian didn't remember this happening.
