no Guanyin

It is a box of rare edition paints, with the brand logo in the center of the front and MerryChristmas engraved on the side.

The solid wood box is very delicate, and 40 colors of solid paint lie neatly inside, shining brightly.There is also a numbered book in the gift box. Among the 999 copies sold worldwide, the identity of this box of paint is NO.736.

You Yingxi knows this brand, and she basically uses its products for painting, which are expensive.

She had seen this box of Christmas collector's edition paints in the inside pages of an art magazine.A full-page advertisement, in the style of watercolor painting, depicts misty mountains, wooden houses in the pine forest, and a group of children on the window sill looking at the elk sleigh carriage running towards the moon and stars.There is also an ad slogan that hits people's hearts-"You are like the night, with loneliness and stars" (Note 1).

No matter how much she doesn't like painting, she wants to buy it for collection.

It's a pity that no matter how generous the pocket money Yu Shurong gave, it was all in the category of students, and I really didn't have five-figure money to buy this for a while.Originally, she thought that it would be enough to buy the oil painting contest when the prize money came out, and it would be fine if it was sold out by then, and she didn't have to.

Faced with such a sudden surprise, it was hard for her not to be unhappy.

The corners of You Yingxi's lips hadn't come off since she saw this box of paint, Jiang Wanzi finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this gift was the right one.

I often go to art exhibitions, but Jiang Wanzi doesn't dabble much in the deeper aspects of art.There happened to be a friend named Jia Jiajia, she studied piano, and her boyfriend studied oil painting.That day, Jiang Wanzi asked casually in the sister group, and Zhao Shu, who often dives in the group as a family member and is not very effervescent, sent a video advertisement for this paint like a timely rain.

I thought it was beautiful and practical, so I bought it as a gift.

"There are also 108-color and 140-color ones, which are much bigger. I thought it might be inconvenient for you to take them with you when you go out to sketch, so I bought this one."

Jiang Wanzi sat opposite, sipping coffee in small sips.

She drank slowly, and her throat hadn't rolled in one sip, but the taste had passed in her mouth, and her thin eyelids first tightened into tiny creases.This expression is different from her previous cold image, a bit childish.

You Yingxi couldn't help asking: "Is it very bitter?"

"Black coffee, that's all."

"Drinking other things can also relieve your troubles, right? Latte or Mocha?" You Yingxi glanced at the cup of black coffee, her disgust was palpable.

There are very few people in this world who like bitterness. Jiang Wanzi doesn't like bitterness, let alone self-torture. She debuted as a beautiful director, and she has some idol baggage.

Jiang Wanzi put down the coffee cup, bent her arms and put it on the table, covered one of her cheeks and smiled: "It's not about relieving sleepiness, it's about reducing swelling. I haven't had a good rest these days."

Since Jing Xing joined the team, he has delayed a lot of progress. The assistant director knew that Jing Xing's moral character and acting skills were negligibly bad, so he persuaded Jiang Wanzi to make a replacement.

Jiang Wanzi didn't agree. Anyone who knows her well knows that she has a cold face and a warm heart. She is decisive in doing things, but she will give people a chance until she is decisive.

In a way, he is a gentle person.It's a pity that her gentleness often comes like a gentle wind and light rain, or the kind that falls quietly at night, and the sky clears up as soon as you open your eyes the next day.

Jing Xing was the one who fell asleep and didn't feel it, but You Yingxi felt it, and was even a little obsessed with it.

"Ah... that's why you didn't go back for a few days?" You Yingxi touched the paint box, she felt that this gift was very hot, and after rubbing it with her fingertips for a while, it became very hot.

It's not because of the high price - the identities of You Zhuangchen and Yu Shurong are there, and the gifts from relatives and friends during the holidays are not cheap.It was because Jiang Wanzi didn't forget to give her a gift in line with her student status even in such a busy situation.

Jiang Wanzi heard something else, and she couldn't help being taken aback: "How do you know that I haven't been back for several days?"

In fact, I went back in the middle of the night the day before yesterday and took some clothes.The rest of the time is spent in a hotel near the crew.

How to answer this question?

Because I always look at the house where you live from time to time?Because there is always such a room in the community that is not lit at night, and it is pitch black?Because you didn't say when we'll see you next time, and I don't know where I can meet you, so I just have to wait for the most likely next time?

It seems that no matter how you answer it, it can be understood as "I want to see you".It's too embarrassing to blurt it out, or to face this person whose sexual orientation she already knew just now.

"Thought you lied to me." You Yingxi thought she was clever and made a detour, her cheeks were puffed up, and the years that had been smeared by lipstick disappeared out of thin air, and only then did she start to look like a student.

But the look in her eyes couldn't be deceived.The accusation has some points, but it is more about the fulfillment of the wish. It seems that it is something worth celebrating to meet Jiang Wanzi unexpectedly somewhere.Happiness is dotted brightly in her big and round eyes.

Jiang Wanzi had no choice but to stand up, and stretched out her hand to gently turn her reversed baseball cap around, and slightly lowered the brim of the hat to cover half of her eyes.

——The original intention was to cover everything, so as not to feel guilty about being stared at, but I didn't do that because I couldn't bear to look at her.Jiang Wanzi sensed the girl's heartbeat, but she didn't feel that she should take any responsibility for not doing anything.

She simply attributed You Yingxi's liking for her to her appearance, like the few girlfriends she had been with before, she could bury her liking with a quick glance.As for the reason for her liking for You Yingxi?She didn't know, maybe the finger that rested on the brim of the girl's hat and gently pressed down a few inches knew, such an instinctive reaction seemed to directly bypass the instructions of the brain.

Jiang Wanzi put her hands back into her pockets: "I'm not lying to you, filming is like this. I can't tell when I'll go back and when I won't."

"Oh." The brim of the hat was actually a little low, blocking her from seeing people.You Yingxi raised her eyebrows a bit, "Then can I come to you? Have you been filming here?"

She glanced around.This is also a studio, the set is half built, there are unpainted desks and chairs, a desk with several textbooks and rulers, the blackboard is new, half of the film on the surface has been removed, and a corner of the hanging plastic film Wipe across the chalk box on the blackboard shelf.

It looked like a high school classroom, and it was quite realistic. When she first came in, she was startled, thinking that school was starting again or something.

Jiang Wanzi had a taste of her tiger.

Obviously she was on the set just now, so it is impossible not to hear the gossip surrounding her. Even though homosexuality is no longer a big deal in the eyes of today's precocious high school students, in the stories that have been frequently discussed these days I am clearly not a good person.Isn't she afraid?

"What are you looking for me for? Have you finished your homework for the winter vacation?" Jiang Wanzi rarely spoke in an admonishing tone.

You Yingxi didn't like her, and blinked her eyes: "Didn't you already see my true face? I'm not a good student. Just do whatever you want for winter vacation homework."

The true face You Yingxi said was not as convincing as she imagined.

The girl's face was made very small by the black baseball cap. She had a standard oval face and a very fair complexion. She surpassed many people in terms of facial features alone.

The temperament of the whole body is modified by the rich lip color, like a budding rose, the brown pupils are naturally attractive and deeply attractive, and the eyes under the thick eyelashes are a little unpretentious and full of curiosity melancholy.

——It's strange, even if You Yingxi is still smiling now, the melancholy hasn't dissipated, it seems to have merged into her blood.As a director, Jiang Wanzi likes such a pair of eyes with stories, which can stimulate her creative desire.

However, her so-called true face is only floating on the surface.The lipsticked lips and the reversed baseball cap brought out a stream of breath, the speed of speaking changed, and the tone became more casual.But the voice is still sweet, like cotton candy, diluting the discomfort of the sudden change of the two faces.

The lethality of a girl acting like a baby is directly proportional to her appearance.Jiang Wanzi understood why Kang Yin would not be willing to scold her no matter how big a mistake she made as long as she cried when she was a child.

You Yingxi hasn't acted like a baby yet, just blinked her eyes, she couldn't stand it.I had no choice but to laugh, a little helpless: "Are you sure you want to get so close to me?"

"Sure. I know everything about you on the Internet, but I don't think that's you, at least not all of you. So I want to know the real you through myself."

"Then do you know what it might mean if you get too close to me?" Jiang Wanzi stirred the coffee cup, her fingers were long and white.She raised her eyes, and there was a bit of warning and a bit of provocation in her long and narrow pupils.

She was not an easy woman to read.

The fragmented information found on the Internet flashed back in You Yingxi's mind like a revolving lantern.Jiang Wanzi likes women, Jiang Wanzi has had many girlfriends, Jiang Wanzi has never been responsible for her feelings.

No matter which one of the above, to You Yingxi who has never been in a relationship, it is like a red light at a crossroads, which makes people tremble.

This time, You Yingxi was rarely silent for a long time.Jiang Wanzi originally thought that she would retreat in spite of difficulties, but she asked immediately: "Then will you like me?"

Jiang Wanzi choked for a moment, fascinated by her overly innocent eyes.I feel that the difference is only five or six years. Why are the current high school students... so?

"Then I may need to clarify. I'm not a good person. You know all about playing with emotions and playing games with life. But it's not that bad—" Jiang Wanzi thought for a while, then reached out and touched through the hat The girl's head, trying to make a caress similar to the elders.

"You are still young, you are not yet an adult."

There were polite refusals between the lines, You Yingxi could understand, and some inexplicable sadness filled the corners of his eyes.She didn't really want Jiang Wanzi to say yes, after all, she didn't know what she liked about Jiang Wanzi.But if you really hear it, you won’t, and it’s a lie to say you’re not sad.

She lowered her head, trying to digest the negative emotions, not letting the other party find out.

"But what in the world can be said for sure?"

You Yingxi raised her head, followed Jiang Wanzi's gaze and looked out the window, only to see that it was raining lightly outside at some point, and the whole sky was foggy, as if soaking in water.

Jiang Wanzi: "Just like today, even the weather forecast didn't know it would rain."

She has unspoken subtext.Putting it all together is: just like today, even the weather forecast doesn't know that it will rain, so how do I know if I will like you in the future?
