One big and one small are practicing love

When Zuo Yan and Zuo Xu were handed over to Li Muzi's mother, Zuo Xu once again looked up at Liu Xiaochen longingly and said coquettishly: "Teacher Xiaoxiao, I want to attend your award ceremony, but I don't want to take piano lessons."

Liu Xiaochen shook his head firmly and said, "No. Teacher Hou is going to hold a concert. He is so busy and has made time to give you lessons. How can you not go?"

Zuo Xu lowered his head and curled his lips.

Seeing Zuo Xu's aggrieved and reluctant look, Liu Xiaochen bent down and touched Zuo Xu's head, and said with a smile: "You have made such great progress in practicing piano this week, Teacher Hou will definitely praise you. I will pick you up from the training class in the afternoon and give you some in the evening Make delicious food.”

"Then come pick us up early."

After some coaxing, Zuo Xu walked with them without emotion.

After sending the children away, Liu Xiaochen returned to his room, hurriedly took off his home clothes and put on the mint green dress. When he was hesitating whether to stuff the "Basic Financial Regulations" into his canvas bag, he received a call from Gu Liya.

"Liya, where have you been?"

"I'll be downstairs in five minutes. Get ready to come down."

Because she wanted to meet her favorite actors, Gu Liya paid special attention to this award ceremony. Do your hair, do your beauty treatment, and carefully match your clothes and jewelry. He drove to the scene by himself and came to the community early to pick up Liu Xiaochen. The two of them had to go together.

Going downstairs and out of the glass door of the unit building, I felt a cool breeze. Wearing a thin skirt alone at this time is indeed out of season. Fortunately, I was able to get in the car right away.

After taking just a few steps, Liu Xiaochen saw a brand new shiny red car not far away. The driver's window was open, and Gu Liya was sitting in the car with exquisite makeup and gorgeous clothes. She waved and shouted with a smile: "Xiao Chen, here she is."

Although he had known that Gu Liya's parents bought her a house and a car in Beijing, Liu Xiaochen had never seen her drive a car. Seeing this scene today, Liu Xiaochen felt a little unreal and a little shocked.

At this moment, Liu Xiaochen unbiasedly believed that women who drive nice cars, wear gorgeous clothes, look beautiful and are well-groomed. Compared with the women who are crowded in the bus and subway, dressed casually, with ordinary looks and no decoration. Obviously, the former is more charming and attractive.

Excellent materials have the power to enhance a person's appearance. So many women pursue these, which has a real effect.

Thinking about it, Liu Xiaochen quickly approached the car, opened the passenger door and got in.

"Liya, I just saw you from a distance, you are so beautiful!" As soon as Liu Xiaochen got in the car, he couldn't help but praise with a smile, keeping his eyes on Gu Liya.

"Thank you!" Gu Liya smiled with crooked eyebrows, said, started the car, and continued: "It's not okay for you to dress up so plainly for such an important occasion."

The 'didi' siren sounded in the car.

Gu Liya glanced at the LCD screen and said, "Xiaochen, you haven't fastened your seat belt yet."

"Oh!" Liu Xiaochen hurriedly put down the canvas bag and lowered his head to fasten his seat belt. The black belt pressed against the white camellia. Liu Xiaochen carefully pulled out the pressed petals with his hands.

While driving, Gu Liya said: "I brought a makeup bag and put on a beautiful makeup for you there. You can't wear a ponytail on that occasion. Keep your hair straight and I'll braid it for you later." OK. I also brought a few hair accessories and jewelry, put on makeup, and styled my hair to see how it matches." As he said that, he freed his hand and pointed at the back seat.

Liu Xiaochen turned to look at the back seat of the car and saw a small, clear blue suitcase leaning against the seat. Turning back, he looked deeply at Gu Liya and said with a smile: "Thank you, Liya."

"Don't be so polite to me all the time. I can meet the actors I like, and I don't have to say thank you so much to you for being so proud of me. Besides, I am also very happy to dress you up."

Gu Liya said with a smile, and suddenly said seriously: "Xiaochen, you don't know. When I was a child, I often put makeup on dolls, classmates, and relatives' children. When I was in school, I often secretly put on eyeliner and a thin layer of lipstick. , wearing small jewelry. For this reason, I am often scolded by teachers and parents, and my classmates also point fingers at me behind my back. But there is no way, I just like beautiful things, and they tell me that I also want to dress up."

"I admire you, Liya, for being brave enough to be yourself." Liu Xiaochen said sincerely.

Then he turned around and recalled: "When I was in the second grade of elementary school, my mother bought me a pack of small colorful hairpins in the county town, ten in total. They were made of small springs with small colorful beads on both ends. I pulled them gently and the clips You can hang it on your hair. I liked it so much that the next day when I went to school, I put all the small hairpins in my hair. As a result, the young female substitute teacher scolded me in front of the whole class during class. I took half a class. They said I was ostentatious, and my family conditions were so poor, yet I still dressed myself up. From then on, I only dared to tie my tail in a ponytail with a black rubber band."

Gu Liya cursed and said angrily: "It is every girl's nature to love beauty. Why should our education suppress this nature? This is just like the old society binding women's feet. It is quite normal and healthy. Yes, I have to use external force to deform it."

Along the way, the two chatted a lot.

Gu Liya said that she also studied dance, piano, and calligraphy when she was a child, so she finally chose to study painting. It’s not that I like it very much, but I chose it by elimination. Dancing is too painful, practicing piano is too boring, and I don’t know math, physics and chemistry. Relatively speaking, art is more interesting and does not require high cultural points.

After all, he is a child from a wealthy family. He has the confidence to be himself, has many resources, good conditions, and many choices.

Liu Xiaochen sometimes tilted his head and looked at the radiant, calm and confident Gu Liya with envy. Occasionally, I would be in a daze, thinking how great it would be if I could be born in the same conditions as her. But I quickly thought that maybe I wouldn’t be able to meet Teacher Wang, Teacher Zuo and his family.

well! It's just a fantasy after all, why do I still think about it seriously sometimes?

While chatting, Liu Xiaochen would sometimes touch the books in his bag unconsciously, disrupting his half-day study plan. Looking at the time on the LCD screen, how are Zuo Yan and Zuo Xu going in class? But sometimes the warm spring breeze blows and we chat happily and laugh. I also thought that it would be good to relax and chat with friends.

More than 40 minutes later, they arrived at a large commercial building and parked the car. Follow the instructions, enter through the designated door, find the elevator, then walk around for a while, and finally arrive at the performance hall on the seventh floor.

Along the way, Gu Liya was always leading the way with familiarity and confidence.

There were several staff at the door. They asked Gu Liya and Liu Xiaochen to show their ID cards, student ID cards, received text messages, and register their names, phone numbers, time and other information in the book.

After everything was completed, the staff gave each of them a red string tag with a temporary access pass written on it. They were then allowed to enter and were led to a lounge by a young female usher.

"There is still more than an hour before the ceremony starts. You can rest here first. There are drinks and snacks on the table. You can eat as you like. There are staff at the door. If you have any needs, you can contact them." After saying this, the female usher left.

There is a huge brown wooden table in the lounge, with colorful drinks, cut fruits, and beautiful snacks neatly placed on it. Four or five people were scattered around the table, each looking down at their mobile phones. No one had eaten or drank.

Gu Liya put the small blue suitcase she was carrying on the table and said, "Xiao Chen, sit down quickly and I'll do your makeup."

Liu Xiaochen glanced at the other people with his peripheral vision. They were still looking down at their phones and didn't pay attention. Looking back, she saw that Gu Liya had opened the small box and spread out the layers of small drawers, revealing a dazzling array of cosmetics and accessories.

Liu Xiaochen was still a little shy and couldn't let go of putting on makeup in front of strangers. But thinking of Gu Liya sincerely helping her with makeup, and seeing Gu Liya looking more beautiful than usual after putting on makeup.

To live up to the sincerity of others, I want to see what I look like after putting on makeup. With such a state of mind, Liu Xiaochen sat on the chair and let Gu Liya play with her. Apply foundation, eyeliner, eye shadow, mascara, eyebrows, lipstick...

"Eyes look down."

"Close your eyes."

"Put your lips together."

……

Gu Liya commanded with certainty, and Liu Xiaochen obeyed and obeyed.

People kept coming in and out of the lounge. There were more and more people in the room, and the chatter was low and intensive. Gu Liya always acted as if no one was around, and Liu Xiaochen stopped paying attention.

After about twenty minutes, the makeup was put on, and Liu Xiaochen used the small round mirror attached to the powder puff to look at it. Her eyes were shining with silver sequins, her eyelashes were dark and distinct, her eyebrows were clear, her lips were red, and her whole face was radiant.

"Oops, why did I dress you up more beautifully than me?" Gu Liya said with a smile.

Liu Xiaochen looked at Gu Liya and smiled brightly, and said: "I admit what you said, which seems a bit proud of me. If I don't admit what you said, it seems a bit disrespectful of the facts. You are making me so embarrassed!"

"Such naughty words don't come from a nerd like you." As she said that, Gu Liya lowered her head to rummage through the makeup box and murmured, "Let me do your hair again."

As she said that, Gu Liya found a handful of long silver soft silk threads, tied them all on the top of her hair, mixed them with her hair, and braided them into her hair.

Liu Xiaochen held up the small mirror and looked up. He couldn't see the whole picture clearly, but could faintly see the bright silver threads twinkling in his hair. When Liu Xiaochen was looking at it seriously, the cell phone in the canvas bag suddenly rang.
