resentment

at dusk--

Li Zehai drove to the downstairs of Jiang Jingshu's company, and when he saw Jiang Jingshu coming out, Li Zehai hurried up to meet her.

"Jingshu, there is a new seafood restaurant in the northern suburbs. I heard it is very delicious. Shall we try it tonight?"

Jiang Jingshu looked at Li Zehai with some embarrassment: "Li Zehai, I'm really sorry, I forgot that you are coming today, I made an appointment with Mrs. Ye yesterday to find him, or let's forget about it today, next time we have time Make an appointment again."

Li Zehai didn't believe that the careful Jiang Jingshu would forget the agreement with him: "Jiang Jingshu, are you hiding from me on purpose? I don't believe you will be so careless about what you agreed to yesterday."

"If you really don't believe me, you can come with me."

"Just go, I really don't believe it."

Li Zehai parked his car on the side of the road and got into Jiang Jingshu's car.

After getting in the car, Li Zehai felt a little vain: "No, you really have an appointment with Master Ye?"

Jiang Jingshu returned directly: "Of course, this can be false."

Li Zehai complained: "Didn't I tell you everything yesterday, didn't you also agree, why did you change your mind today?"

Jiang Jingshu turned her head to look at Li Zehai, and patiently explained: "Master Ye told me yesterday that he would let me participate in the traditional Chinese painting competition in half a year. I forgot about my excitement. I just remembered this incident when I saw you today."

Li Zehai didn't want to give up: "Then why don't we go out for dinner tomorrow?"

"No, I'm not good at painting now, how can I embarrass Mr. Ye by participating in the competition."

Immediately to Master Ye Xing's house, Li Zehai hurriedly said to Jiang Jingshu: "That's all right, you put me down quickly, I won't go to Teacher Ye's place, then contact me when you are free, and I will go again Looking for you."

Jiang Jingshu looked at Li Zehai with a smile on her face: "Are you really not going?"

"No, no, no." Li Zehai shook his head repeatedly.

After putting Li Zehai off the car, Jiang Jingshu drove the car straight to the door of Master Ye Xing's studio.

Jiang Jingshu came to the studio and asked about Ye Chen's situation: "Mr. Ye, I'm here. Has Ye Chen arrived in City B yet?"

Master Ye Xing stopped the pen in his hand: "The train at noon today is probably coming soon."

Jiang Jingshu was a little surprised: "You didn't let him take the plane?"

Master Ye Xing looked at his apprentice, and felt sad again: "Flying? What can that kid learn in City B, hmph, he has to suffer this."

Jiang Jingshu: "..."

Seeing Ye Xing's childish look, she couldn't help but want to laugh, but she felt that it was inappropriate... She coughed twice and said, "It's so cruel, teacher, please show me the picture I drew yesterday. I review reviews."

Ye Xing glanced at her reproachfully before turning his gaze to the painting.

"Well, the lines are soft, the details are accurate, the colors are reasonable, and the temperature is also very good, but you have a little problem with the light. Look, doesn't it look better this way?" Saying, Ye Master Xing added a few strokes to Jiang Jingshu's painting.

Jiang Jingshu gestured at the painting, very seriously: "Hey, it's really better than before... Teacher, how can I improve my grasp of light?"

"You have to observe and think more about this. Jingshu, I have a suggestion. Your painting skills are basically solid now, but there is a little problem with your selection of materials. It may be related to your age. You might as well go to the painting more often." Go around, experience the various aspects of life, and make your paintings more meaningful and enduring." Ye Xing looked at her and couldn't help showing a satisfied expression.

Jiang Jingshu nodded and said with a smile: "Well, teacher, I have plans to go out these two days. Since you also said it, then I will go back and prepare."

"Okay, then we'll be here today, it's getting late, let's go back and rest early."

……

Master Ye Xing asked on the phone: "Chenchen, have you arrived yet? It's better to be outside than at home. You should pay more attention to your body and focus on your studies. Don't always worry about what you have."

Back in the car, Jiang Jingshu remembered that the painting was still with Master Ye Xing. When she turned back, she heard the call between Master Ye Xing and Ye Chen. After a moment of hesitation, Jiang Jingshu turned around and left.

……

Seeing Ye Jingxian who was applying a mask, Jiang Jingshu asked, "Ye Zi, when are you going to City E again?"

"What's wrong my big baby?"

Jiang Jingshu looked at Ye Jingxian and said seriously: "I want to go to City E with you, to see that teahouse, and to experience all kinds of life."

Ye Jingxian didn't look like Jiang Jingshu was joking: "You really want to go, I have to submit the photos and articles I took before I can go, probably next week or so."

"Okay, then don't forget to hold me when you leave."

……

After Ye Chen got off the car, he rushed to the hotel where Eli lived: "Eli, I've arrived at your hotel. Where do you live? I'll go to your room to find you now."

Yi Lai was taken aback: "What? You've arrived in City B, why didn't you tell me when you came?"

Ye Chen said softly: "Didn't I want to give you a surprise?"

"If you had said earlier, I would have been waiting for you. I'm already asleep. How about we see you tomorrow." Eli, who was watching the video, hung up the phone impatiently.Looking at the phone that was hung up by Yi Lai, Ye Chen shook his head helplessly, went to the bathroom to wash up and was ready to sleep.

Just when everyone was working in the room, Gu Jingchen quietly left the hotel.

At this time, Gu Jingchen changed into the usual clothes he had just bought in the afternoon, and walked to the night market stall.

Gu Jingchen said to the middle-aged man, "Boss, bring me an oden."

The boss glanced at it and said, "You are one, then you can choose by yourself."

Gu Jingchen sat down directly: "Ah, let's have one of the same."

Gu Jingchen asked while eating the oden cooked by the boss: "Boss, how do you make this skewer?"

"Little brother, this is not made, it is bought in the supermarket."

Gu Jingchen looked up at the boss after eating the food in the bowl: "Then why is this food so delicious?"

The man eating next to Gu Jingchen looked at Gu Jingchen with a smile: "Brother, this soup is well prepared."

Gu Jingchen ignored the man and said to the boss: "Then, can the boss give me the method of making soup?"

The man who spoke just now was not angry, and said with a smile, "Brother, what are you thinking? This is the craftsmanship of the boss to make money. If it is given to you, the boss will still make money."

Gu Jingchen looked at the boss, and found that the boss was also looking at him in embarrassment. Gu Jingchen knew that he was reckless, and after thinking about it, Gu Jingchen said.

"Boss, I have an idea. I don't know if the boss's soup is well prepared. Will the boss cook anything else?"

The boss was confused: "Little brother, what do you mean?"

The man on the side listened to the conversation between the two with great interest.

Gu Jingchen said in a deep voice: "I want to help the boss open a store, so that I can prove my sincerity. The main reason why I want to learn from you is that the people I like also like to eat this. I want to learn to help the people I like." do."

The boss grinned: "Say it earlier, little brother, no need, come early tomorrow, I'll teach you."

Gu Jingchen stood up and prepared to pay: "Then thank you boss."

At this time, the man sitting next to him said: "Brother, I have paid for your meal today, and I want to discuss something with you tomorrow, I wonder if my brother is willing?"

"Tomorrow's matter will be discussed tomorrow. I will definitely pay for today's meal." After speaking, Gu Jingchen paid for the meal and left.

Seeing the man whose words were being ignored lowered his head to eat the oden in the bowl, he didn't know what he was thinking.

……

Early next morning

Gu Jingchen came to the door of Yilai's room.

"Eli, open the door, I have something to tell you."

Gu Jingchen didn't get a response, so he called out again: "Yi Lai?"

"Well, here we come." Eli said lazily in the room.

Looking at Yi Lai who was wearing tulle pajamas, Gu Jingchen didn't feel the slightest fluctuation in his heart: "Hurry up and get dressed, the boss I met yesterday heard that you participated in the dance competition, and wanted to meet you no matter what."

After hearing this, Yi Lai lost all sleepiness: "Huh? Why do you want to see me?"

Gu Jingchen didn't want to elaborate: "I don't know, get dressed quickly, I'll wait for you downstairs."

After finishing speaking, Gu Jingchen turned around and went downstairs without giving Eli any chance to ask.

When passing by the hotel lobby, Gu Jingchen found out that Ye Chen was waiting for something in the lobby, Gu Jingchen rolled his eyes and walked towards Ye Chen.

At this moment, Ye Chen also discovered Gu Jingchen's existence: "Hey, aren't you Jiang Jingshu's husband? What are you doing in City B?"

Gu Jingchen raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Master Ye, of course I came to City B to play with my lover. I wonder who Mr. Ye is waiting for here?"

Ye Chen didn't want to talk to Gu Jingchen anymore, so he said in a more serious tone: "Of course I'm waiting for Yi Lai, you go, I don't want to see you."

Gu Jingchen was thinking like a rascal: "Young master Ye, I'm waiting for someone in the hall, this hall is not yours, so what can you do if I don't leave?"

"You don't want to go, let me go." After speaking, Ye Chen stood up and saw Eli who came down the stairs, "Eli, I'm here."

Yi Lai paused for a moment when he heard the voice, and then saw Gu Jingchen and Ye Chen looking at him together, and Yi Lai stood there in embarrassment without moving.

Gu Jingchen saw that Yi Lai was not moving, so he went up to meet him, and said loudly, "Yi Lai, that Ye Chen said he came to look for you, did he ask him to come?"

Seeing Ye Chen approaching, Yi Lai paused and said, "No, I don't know why he came here suddenly, and I don't know why he came here suddenly."

Ye Chen smiled at Yi Lai: "Didn't I care about you? You came to participate in the competition, shouldn't I come as your boyfriend?"

Gu Jingchen pretended not to understand: "Huh? Yi Lai, didn't you say that you have nothing to do with him? What's going on?"

Yi Lai continued following Gu Jingchen's words, and looked at Gu Jingchen affectionately as he spoke: "Ye Chen, didn't I tell you clearly last time, I don't like you, please don't bother me, I am living a very good life now !"

Ye Chen was at a loss.

Gu Jingchen pretended to be very angry: "Did you hear that? Huh? Please don't disturb my date with my girlfriend, you are really annoying."

Ye Chen was in a state of confusion, and said in a low voice: "Impossible, Yi Lai, you never told me such a thing, I don't believe it, I don't believe it."

"Let everyone comment. I took my girlfriend out to play. You said you insisted on disturbing our life. You said you are a bit cheap!" After finishing speaking, Gu Jingchen pulled Yi Lai and said gone.

Looking at the back of Yi Lai being led away by Gu Jingchen, Ye Chen slowly slumped to the ground.
