implication

Lin Chi sat in front of the workbench and sighed, put his hands in his sleeves, and counted back and forth with his fingers, only to find that after buying this kaleidoscope with the salary he just received, he had to cut back on his clothes and go on a diet again.

"Why is it so expensive?" Lin Chen pouted, looking down at the kaleidoscope that he stuffed in the drawer. He never thought that a kaleidoscope would be so expensive.That's right, it is specially made according to the retro craftsmanship and added with exotic style. Even if it is said to be a staff price under the banner of importing, it is still not much cheaper.

"Lin Chen, have you cleared up all the boards?" Master Xu urged.

"Oh, right away." Lin Qiao let go of his hand in his sleeve. In fact, the board was just cut, and he didn't have time to tidy it up. Lin Qiao's thoughts were all on the newly bought kaleidoscope.He raised his hand anxiously, bumped his elbow against the corner of the table, and the tools on the workbench fell to the ground with a clang.

The first three masters were wearing glasses, and they were either engraving characters, or tapping tubes to tune the sound. Lin Quan attracted the three masters to turn around and look at him.

Master Xu, the most strict among the three masters, lowered his head and raised his eyes to look at Lin Qiao who was squatting on the ground and hurriedly picking up tools through his thick glasses. He has obviously been slack lately.Master Xu spoke, his deep voice was like a big bell in a temple that is not easily rang, and he had to be followed seriously, "Lin Chi, what you talk about in handicrafts is meditation. Look at you, you are frizzy, and you will have it in the morning." Tell you to pack your things."

Master Liao, who usually loves to make jokes about Lin Chen, also loves to protect him the most. Hearing Master Xu's admonishing tone, he immediately interrupted him, "Okay, a young man with a fresh blood is not frizzy. You are not in a hurry to use wood. If Lin Chen found out, he would definitely rush to clean it up. He’s not even thinking about it right now.”

Although Master Liao helped to speak, Lin Qiu, who was squatting on the ground picking up things, felt uneasy. He probably expected that the two masters would have a verbal fight because of him.

Sure enough, Master Xu took off the eyes on the bridge of his nose and slapped it on the table, "Do you think I'm making things difficult for him? You treat him well, don't I? Do the work that needs to be done in advance so that you have time Go learn new things. Don’t you want the master to teach you when you are an apprentice? It’s all about thorning and waxing the wood, when will you make progress? Don’t you have to learn carving and lettering later on?”

Master Liao kept protecting him, "Lin Ling has only been here for a few months? Don't push the seedlings, let him do a solid job first."

"I'm pushing the seedlings to grow?" Master Xu pointed angrily at his own nose and then at Master Liao's. His index finger trembled and pointed twice, and finally pointed at Lin Qu who was squatting on the ground and dared not raise his head. You must have made up your mind to come out of the house. If you don’t learn something earlier, when will you dare to go back home with your head held high?”

Lin Chen's hands trembled when he heard this. In recent days, he really lost the momentum he had when he first came here, and he put all his thoughts on Ning Fei.At this moment, when Master Xu mentioned the family affairs, Lin Chen suddenly felt ashamed, not only ashamed to his parents, but also ashamed that several masters cared so much for him.But myself...

"Okay, okay, stop talking." Master Lin got up and stood between the two masters, Liao and Xu, intentionally warding off their confrontation, and then softly said to Lin Chi, "Lin Chi, get up and sit back on the workbench." Come on, don't delay today's mission."

"Okay." Lin Chi got up and sat back on his workbench, without saying a word, picked up the sandpaper and began to rub the wood like a hard-working carpenter.It has been a long time since he came here to learn crafts, this is the first time Lin Chi has been preached.Lin Chi stopped what he was doing, looked up at the hard-working figures of the three masters in front of him, exhaled deeply through his nose, looked down at his own dry and skinny hands, and then looked down to see a piece of paper sticking out of the drawer. Cut off the kaleidoscope, secretly thinking, "It doesn't matter Lin Qiu, they are all for your own good. It doesn't matter Ning Fei, you are different from me, you are a talented person, you will not have such troubles."

Ning Fei never learns anything quickly.

When they got off work, the three masters packed up their things and took off their aprons to go back. Lin Chi still immersed himself in filing the corners of the board with a file.Master Lin reminded him, "Lin Chen is off work, let's continue tomorrow."

Lin Chen shook his head, "I'll leave after finishing what I'm doing."

Master Liao gave Master Xu a reproachful look, and Master Xu felt a little embarrassed, "Lin Chen, let's get off work first, what I said during the day didn't mean to treat you harshly."

Lin Chen raised his face and smiled purely at Master Xu, "I know, you are right, you can only spend more time learning new things if you do the work at hand well, I know you are doing my best. Master Let's go first, I just stayed to clean up the house."

Master Liao wanted to persuade him again, but Master Xu stopped him and shook his head at him, and the three of them walked out through the door of the studio.Lin Chi heard the sound of the door being closed, and his hands only paused for a second or two before continuing to work, leaving only the monotonous rustling sound in the room.

Lin Qiu's middle finger had blisters, which happened to be against the handle of the knife, and he didn't notice it when he threw it in. When the wooden board in hand was rubbed neatly and smooth, Lin Qiao stopped his hand and realized that the middle finger hurt badly. The blisters on the fingers are visually the same as the light bulb on the top of the head.

"Hiss~" Lin Qiao took a deep breath, bowed his head after breathing, and muttered to himself, "Idiots without talent have to work harder." The kaleidoscope was still in his drawer, and Lin Qiao stretched out With blistered fingers, he gently rubbed the edge of the kaleidoscope. As if he was encouraged, he stood up and stretched to refresh himself, "Okay, now clean up and get off work."

The usual dustpan and broom were placed behind the door. After stretching, Lin Quan took a look at the messy tabletop and floor, his arms drooped listlessly, sighed and resigned himself to his fate, went to pick up the broom behind the door, and put it next to the wall. Sweep the crumbs into the open space in the center of the house.

The process of sweeping the floor is a stage of emptying the mind. While sweeping the garbage, Lin Quan remembered the scene when he first came here. He couldn't even sweep the floor, and was disgusted by the master.

He has never swept the floor since he was a child. When he was a child, he pretended to pick up the broom for the homework assigned by his teacher to be filial to his parents, but his mother rushed to take it away.My mother always treasures him and never sees him moving his fingers, especially after he has undergone an operation. As long as he sees that he has any intention of moving, she rushes over to hug him and call him, baby, I know you are kind, but you must not If it hurts again, it will make my mother worry.After speaking, take him to the kitchen for a pudding.After the pudding was finished, Lin Chen went back to his room obediently and stayed there with peace of mind. Now that he thinks about it, it seems that he has never had any special worries because of his mother's protection since he was a child. The environment is out of place.

Lin Chen swept the ground, suddenly remembered Ning Fei's words, and pursued the illusory dream bravely without leaving a way out, one day when the pressure from above was over, looking back, you would regret it.

The broom in his hand fell to the ground with a "snap". Lin Qiao turned his head and looked at his workbench in the corner. It was still dim under the light. He looked down at his chapped hands and murmured, "I regret it. Yet?"

"Mu Mu, come here. Come to Mom, Mom has made egg yolk pudding for you."

Mother's figure appeared in the dim light.It's not that Lin Chen didn't think about family, he thought about it, especially thinking about it, he never left the wings of family since he was a child, and now he ran away from home on his own way, and he was afraid that he was not firm enough so he avoided contacting his family, which resulted in Now the extremely lonely moment has lost the usual warm and familiar embrace.

"Mom's embrace," Lin Kai sniffed, "I miss you so much."

For him, his mother's embrace is comfort, encouragement, a safe haven and a gas station.But now, he didn't have the roof that protected him from the wind and rain, and he was the one who forced himself into the isolated and helpless situation.

Lin Qiu's nose was sore, his eyes were astringent, and his heart was about to throw away his armor and want to return to Sonoda.The kaleidoscope in the drawer fell to the ground at this moment, and rolled on the ground twice before stopping at Lin Qiu's feet.Lin Chi looked at the kaleidoscope rolling to his feet, sucked his nose, and once the nose breathed out, his chaotic head also woke up.

He clenched his fists and shouted, "No! I don't regret it!"

It was already late at night, and this sentence echoed in the studio surrounded by walls.Lin Chen stood in the middle of the room, and the sentence "I don't regret it" was bounced back to his ears by the wall of the studio.He slumped his shoulders, bent down, picked up the kaleidoscope at his feet, and continued to sweep the ground.

Sweeping the debris into the dustpan is not so smooth. There are hard objects on the ground, and they cannot be swept in.Lin Quan squatted on the bed, brushed away the top layer of dust, and saw a discarded nut.

Lin Chi picked up the nut and held it up to the ceiling.From the hollow nut, I saw the ceiling lights, and the halo spread out round and round.He raised the kaleidoscope in the other hand, and brought his hands together to face the ceiling light. The kaleidoscope was still full of purple and red fragrance alone. Lin Qian glanced at the hollow nut on the other side, "The difference is really huge." After speaking, he squeezed the nut tightly in the palm of his hand, clenched his fist again and again, stuffed it back into his pocket, got up and continued to clean the studio.

Jiang Ze was standing at the bar, he had just finished mixing a glass of wine for the guests.When passing the wine sideways, the end of his eyes swept over Shui Xin who was sitting alone in the corner of the bar.

Shui Xin is still abnormal today.

Jiang Ze withdrew his hand, and no guests ordered wine for the time being.He picked up the towel again, twirled the glass with the other hand, and wiped the already clean wine glass for nothing.

Shui Xin tilted her head and watched the wine glass in Jiang Ze's hand turn twice and still not put down, "Don't wipe the glass if you have nothing to do."

Jiang Ze didn't stop, "The boss is watching here, why do I feel blatantly idle."

The corners of Shui Xin's mouth twitched, "You're such an idiot, foreign workers are not smart, how many times do you have to wipe a cup?"

Jiang Ze was not embarrassed when he was pointed out, he was still rubbing, he asked Shui Xin, "Then how long do you have to think about one thing on your mind?" Xin's voice was low and deep, "As long as he doesn't come again."

However, the reality made Shui Xin worry about things for a long time, Jiang Ze finally stopped wiping the wine glass because Lin Chi came.

"I'm looking for Ning Fei."

Hearing this sentence, Jiang Ze and Shui Xin lowered their heads, and after a while, they waited for Lin Chen to repeat the words firmly, "I'm looking for Ning Fei!"

Only then did Jiang Ze and Shui Xin tacitly raise their heads to look at Lin Chi together.He was holding something in his hand, wrapped in a flannel bag, to block a pair of curious gazes.

Lin Chen was a little embarrassed by the gazes of Jiang Ze and Shui Xin, he clenched the things in his hands, swallowed, and continued to look for Ning Fei.Opening his mouth halfway, before making a sound, Shui Xin patted the empty seat beside him, "Come and sit."

Jiang Ze withdrew his gaze from Lin Chen and glanced at Shui Xin. He had already put on a carefully groomed smile, and was trying his best to show himself kind and kind. The flamboyant face was too unworthy, and the whole person seemed to have ulterior motives.

It was so obvious, but only Lin Chen couldn't see it.Lin Chen's body was tense and stiff, but when he saw Shui Xin smiling at him, he relaxed.There is no way, he is too simple and lonely. After Ning Fei, Lin Chen never received kindness except sarcasm, so as long as someone smiles at him and invites him softly, Lin Chen is willing to believe that it is for him. goodwill.

"Let's say yes first, you invited me to sit, I don't have any money." Lin Chen still had to live in a hurry, and when he came up, he used no money to block Shui Xin by surprise, and Shui Xin watched Lin Qiao sitting high Dangling his legs in the footstool, looking at the expensive watch on his wrist, he was suddenly amused by him.Lin Chen didn't pay attention to Shui Xin. After sitting down, he saw Jiang Ze standing behind the bar. He still remembered that Jiang Ze's wine was delicious, so he just grinned at Jiang Ze.

Seeing him smile, Jiang Ze almost stretched out his hand to pinch Lin Chen's face. There was no way he could do it. Lin Qiu was too childish, and with just this smile, he looked like a neighborhood kid who would beg for candy from him.Jiang Ze was infected by him and showed the most relaxed smile tonight. Shui Xin accidentally saw it, and then remembered that Jiang Ze rarely seemed to relax like this in front of him. Seeing Lin Chen's heartless smile, it's strange that Shui Xin's jealousy is like damp wood, it can't be ignited no matter what.

He thought, so the children who grew up in love are like this.It's really annoying that a smile makes even bad thoughts run away like a shield.It's no wonder that Ning Fei treats him so preciously.

"What do you want to drink today?" Jiang Ze asked Lin Jian.

Lin Chi waved his hands in fright, "No, no. You'll get drunk if you drink it!"

Lin Chi thought he couldn't get drunk today, he still saw Ning Fei, and he still had important things to say to Ning Fei.

Shui Xin said, "Make him a non-alcoholic mojito."

Lin Chen hurriedly pointed to Shui Xin beside Jiang Ze, and said in a low voice, "But he ordered it." It means don't ask me to pay the bill when the time comes.

Jiang Ze's eyes were crooked when he smiled, and he pretended not to hear Lin Chen's reminder without saying anything. He lowered his head and began to mix drinks, deliberately trying to tease Lin Qiu in a hurry.Shui Xin saw the rare teasing of Jiang Ze, who was usually holding a steady hand, and his heart suddenly tightened. Looking back, he saw Lin Chu stretched out and stretched out his hand to pull Jiang Ze's sleeve. He said the words to him again, and interrupted. His movements, he just opened his mouth and bit his words hard, which provoked Jiang Ze, who was shaking the shaker, to look at him.

Shui Xin knew she had lost her composure, coughed slightly and said loudly again, "Why are you looking for Ning Fei again?"

Lin Chen almost didn't pout his lips, and just as his upper lip was about to pout, he remembered that he was staying in the "Pansi Cave" now, and he couldn't just be like a Tang monk.Jiang Ze's wine was handed over at this time, and Lin Qiao straightened his waist and took it. He planned to take a sip of the wine and answer the questions himself, so as to appear sophisticated, but he was afraid that his tongue would get tangled when he spoke after drinking, so he just He pinched the slice of lime on the side of the wine glass and threw it into his mouth. He chewed it twice. He remembered that the muscular men in American movies demonstrated like this, "The bar is yours, why can't I... vomit, wow—— -very sour!"

The wine was not drunk, and the lime was sour.Jiang Ze couldn't help laughing at Lin Que, whose tongue was sticking out and his face was wrinkled into bun folds.Hearing Jiang Ze's laughter, Shui Xin glanced at him sideways, but Jiang Ze didn't care because he was engrossed in watching Lin Chuxiao.

Jiang Ze reminded Lin Qu, who kept sticking out his tongue, "Hurry up and have a drink."

"No, what if I'm already drunk when Ning Fei comes?"

"Don't talk about it, I'll make it non-alcoholic for you."

After being stunned for a moment, Lin Qiu picked up the wine glass and drank half of it with his head up. After drinking, he let out a sigh of relief, "I forgot."

Jiang Ze looked at Lin Qiu and laughed again.Shui Xin suddenly slapped the table hard, Jiang Ze and Lin Qu both trembled and turned to look at him.Shui Xin twitched her left eyebrow when she saw that they turned their heads to look over at the same time.He was obviously on my side just now, so why did you go to his side with a smile when he played tricks?

But I can't say this clearly, as soon as I say it, it's childish like a child playing house.In the end, Shui Xin just stuck her neck and said, "This bar is mine." The abrupt sentence still seemed childish.

Shui Xin didn't care about managing his expression anymore, and simply frowned and looked at Lin Qiao, but he couldn't stop thinking about it in his heart, how could he be led into the rhythm by this brat, making himself so stupid that he looked like a newly steamed man? Sweet potatoes, just be silly.The more Shui Xin thought about it, the angrier she became. Seeing Lin Qiao, she blurted out, "Stupid sweet potato."

Lin Chen pouted completely, jumped off the chair and put his hands on his hips in disbelief, "How can you curse?"

"I'm still scolding! Short winter melon!"

Lin Qiu quit this time, because he used to be short and fat, so he was often nicknamed, "You, you, you, you!" It's a pity that Lin Quan didn't swear often enough, and he didn't accumulate some experience. Zhuo Shuixin, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you are still stuck.Shui Xin smiled triumphantly when she saw the distraught Lin Qiao, the smile was sincere, and it was also a relaxed smile he hadn't shown for a long time.Jiang Ze watched from the side, the corners of his mouth curled up in relief.

"Hmph." Lin Quan snorted, looked at Shui Xin's pretty face, and secretly persuaded himself, "Forget it, seeing how good-looking he is, I'd rather be a grown-up and forget about villains."

Shui Xin felt much more refreshed, turned her head to take a sip of wine to cheer herself up, and continued to give Lin Quguan some childish nicknames when she turned around, but this time she saw Lin Quguan's eyes wide open.Shui Xin was stunned for a moment, and almost didn't let go of the cup. Lin Qiu's black and white eyes were bright and sincere, like the sparkling water on the wishing pool, giving you the answer of your wish coming true.Shui Xin was dumbfounded. He had never been treated with sincerity before. He understood Ning Fei again, and there was a ding dong in his heart. It was the sound of coins being thrown into the wishing pool. Ripples are the notification of the arrival of the wish, it is the big smile of Lin Quan in front of him, Shui Xin feels that he has completely understood Ning Fei's cherished heart for him, it is really obsessed but dare not touch it, afraid of being broken.

Lin Chen's smile was accidentally given to Shui Xin, but in fact his eyes were full of Ning Fei who had just walked in.When Ning Fei walked in, Lin Chi stepped forward full of joy, "Ning Fei, I'm here."

"Yeah." Ning Fei glanced at him and brushed his shoulder, clutching the phone tightly in his pocket, with a low and cold voice, "Didn't I tell you not to come again."

But in the blink of an eye, Shui Xin saw that Lin Chen's overjoyed smile turned into nothing, followed by a disappointed look of bowing his head.
