Delicacy

Chapter 40

It was night, and the studio was uncharacteristically quiet. The art students who usually like to get together to chat a little were especially quiet today.Except for Tang Qi's slow footsteps, there was only the tip of the pen flying on the drawing paper, making a sound like a mouse gnawing an apple.

Xu Tao sat for half a class, and there were only a few strokes on the paper. Even a master like Tang Qi couldn't understand what the hell he was planning to draw.Xu Tao looked around in the silence, and then turned his attention to the culprit of all this——Qin Yuanmu.It's a pity that he looked at the drawing board in front of him meticulously, and didn't even bother to give him a look.

Qin Yuanmu's playing truant was not long or short.It stands to reason that it is very common for these scumbags to skip class, but the good students who are praised by Old Tang every day have not entered the studio for ten days, which is more interesting.

The most widely circulated news is that Qin Yuanmu eloped with his girlfriend.And when Qin Yuanmu returned to the studio expressionlessly with a filial piety hanging on his arm, these rumors were self-defeating.

The death of a loved one is actually a very distant event for most high school students. Just like aliens, they exist but cannot catch their shadows.Qin Yuanmu didn't really like to talk to others, but now as long as he is in the studio, it is as quiet as stagnant water all night and night, as if there is an art test tomorrow.

In the past, Qin Yuanmu was lazy occasionally, or wanted to tease Lian Xiao more, and would skip a few classes every now and then. After returning again, he came and walked every day. Xu Tao saw him more often, and the two communication is less.

Tang Qi could see that the classroom discipline of these children had been greatly improved in order to care about Qin Yuanmu's mood.At the same time, he felt sorry for Qin Yuanmu, and he was unreserved in pointing him out, almost striving to achieve perfection in every piece of Qin Yuanmu's works.

Today was no exception. Tang Qi perfunctorily completed his daily tasks of wandering around the studio, and then took root by Qin Yuanmu's side, never leaving again.On the contrary, Xu Tao was affected by Chi Yu. Sitting next to Qin Yuanmu, Tang Qi took a fancy to his unpainted works. Teacher Tang, who has always been very good-tempered, almost kicked Xu Tao's bench over.

Xu Tao felt like sitting on pins and needles, and finally got to the middle of the rest, when he saw Qin Yuanmu stand up without saying a word.He knew what Qin Yuanmu was doing, so he followed closely and walked out of the classroom.

Sure enough, Qin Yuanmu turned into the toilet, and when Xu Tao walked in, he saw half of Qin Yuanmu's face illuminated by the fire.

Xu Tao pretended to have the same expression as usual, and walked over with a playful smile: "Brother, you have been addicted to cigarettes recently, give me one too."

Qin Yuanmu glanced at him without saying a word, and threw the crumpled cigarette case to him in his trouser pocket.Xu Tao took it, pulled out one with difficulty, and then consciously stuffed the whole pack of cigarettes into his pocket: "Brother, what happened to your house...?"

Qin Yuanmu turned around, his voice a little hoarse: "Look at the writing on my arm, don't you understand?"

Xu Tao smiled resentfully: "I understand, but I just can't accept it. Your father should not be very old, why did he suddenly... In short, you are already very good at painting, and you will definitely become even better in the future." of!"

Qin Yuanmu snorted softly, he didn't expect Xu Tao to come to comfort himself, even though the words and vocabulary used were so in line with his Chinese achievements.In fact, thinking about it, he is considered lucky. Although Qin Dayong left, he left cleanly and without suffering any crimes. Wu Fenfang, Wu Guangming, Tang Qi, Wang Ya, and even the heartless Xu Tao all comforted him .

More importantly, Lian Xiao was always by his side, why would he fall down?

It wasn't until Xu Tao's cigarette was about to run out that he heard Qin Yuanmu speak again.

"Thank you."

Xu Tao's movements froze for a moment, and he looked at Qin Yuanmu with some surprise: "Brother, what did you just say? I seem to be hallucinating, can you say it again?"

Qin Yuanmu didn't lose his temper, but turned around and looked at Xu Tao seriously: "I say thank you. Although I'm usually a little cold, I don't understand everything. I know that the students in the studio are taking care of me. How I feel. Really, thank you very much.”

When Qin Yuanmu said these words of thanks, he had no expression at all, and when he threatened to "kill you within three days", he could barely pass with his current expression.But hearing the words of thanks from Qin Yuanmu's mouth, Xu Tao was already a little top-heavy, and laughed again and again: "If you say thank you, you'll be out of the way, as long as you can't be too affected by this matter, after all, it's so important point in time."

"Let's go back to the studio." Qin Yuanmu nodded.

On the way back, Xu Tao spoke again in the corridor: "Qin Yuanmu, I just said that you will definitely be better in the future, but I am not comforting you, but my sincere words. Although I don't want to admit it, but your talent It seems that he is really better than me, and he is still working so hard, the future must be limitless."

Qin Yuanmu turned his head and looked at Xu Tao inexplicably, not understanding why this man said these words suddenly.

What Xu Tao said next made Qin Yuanmu even more confused: "Which art school are you planning to take?"

Through the window, Qin Yuanmu looked at the scene in the studio that was obviously more lively when he was away, and said in a calm tone: "I haven't figured it out yet, my culture class is not good, and I probably won't be able to go to any prestigious school. Just take an exam in the province school."

Xu Tao nodded: "If you have an idea, you must tell me as soon as possible. I want to go to the same school as you."

Qin Yuanmu stared at Xu Tao silently, wanting to say that he already has a partner.

However, Qin Yuanmu obviously misunderstood Xu Tao's meaning. Xu Tao said with a little hope: "Although I am not as good as you at this stage, I will definitely not be worse than you in the future. When the time comes, our brothers will dominate the campus and use two brushes to draw pictures. Our world! After graduation, let's work together in the whole studio... Damn! I'm excited when I think about it, we're going to be famous!"

Looking at Xu Tao who had fallen into a daydream, Qin Yuanmu didn't pour cold water on him because he cared about him just now, but just shook him off silently, and walked into the studio.

When he picked up the paintbrush again, Qin Yuanmu obviously didn't draw as much as he did in the previous class.

To be honest, the only serious thing he is thinking about at this stage is the art test, and it seems that he has never thought about his future life.What Xu Tao said just now sounded like a dream, but after thinking about it, it seemed to be not bad.

Zhang Qing doesn't need to mention that Wang Ya is also a girl after all, and Lian Xiao is his daughter-in-law. Thinking about it now, Xu Tao seems to be Qin Yuanmu's first good brother on his way of growing up.Starting a business with a buddy?Qin Yuanmu smiled slightly, it seemed that it was really good.Moreover, Xu Tao's level is seen by Qin Yuanmu. Although his personality is a bit frizzy, he does have some talent, at least he won't hold him back.

That night, when Xu Tao had almost forgotten what he said a few minutes ago and was staring at the still life, Qin Yuanmu beside him had already begun to imagine the feasibility of his dream.

The time when night self-study is over is also the moment when they finish drawing.When Qin Yuanmu followed the crowd out of the art building, he saw Lian Xiao beside the campus newspaper in the distance.

The moment he saw Lian Xiao, Qin Yuanmu didn't even know how gentle his eyes were, he almost trotted to Lian Xiao's side, and held Lian Xiao's hand without opening his mouth.

"How long have you been waiting?" Qin Yuanmu warmed Lian Xiao's hands with a chuckle.

"It didn't take long. After all, I also want to learn, so it's inconvenient to run out too early..." Lian Xiao has become more and more clingy to Qin Yuanmu recently. When doing this kind of action in public, Lian Xiao used to want to break away from him At this moment, Lian Xiao grasped his hand tightly instead, "Shall we listen to ghost stories together at night?"

Listening to ghost stories has become a secret signal for the two to do some messy things.They hadn't heard of this shit since long ago, when they slept together.

Qin Yuanmu raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Why are you so active today? Are you not afraid of being spotted by my roommate?"

To be honest, Qin Yuanmu thinks that either his roommates are too naive, or they have already seen it, otherwise he will sleep with Lian Xiao every now and then, and these people will definitely make a fuss.

Lian Xiao smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, you are not afraid of the shadow slanting when you are upright! What's the use of sleeping together to keep warm when it's cold?"

"It's really cold..." Qin Yuanmu walked towards the dormitory building while pulling Lian Xiao, "It's almost the end of the year again. To be honest, I was tormented when I first entered high school. I wish I could graduate that afternoon, but now I’m a little bit reluctant, time flies too fast.”

Lian Xiao was extremely dishonest today, shaking Qin Yuanmu's wrist and said: "Christmas is coming soon, I wonder if someone can let me relive the warmth of last year at Christmas this year?"

How could Qin Yuanmu let Lian Xiao take advantage of it for nothing? Taking advantage of the darkness around him, he took a bite on Lian Xiao's mouth: "I would like to relive the scene on your birthday even more. Choosing a date is worse than bumping into it?"

"Day." Lian Xiao nodded.

Qin Yuanmu choked for a moment, and looked at Lian Xiao in surprise for a while: "Lian Xiao, have you noticed that you...have been a little coquettish recently? Hurry up and give me back the serious Lian Xiao!"

"From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality is difficult."

"...There is no plowed land, only exhausted cattle?"

Lian Xiao looked at Qin Yuanmu: "What kind of nonsense are you talking about?"

Qin Yuanmu looked at him: "Should I say this?"

The two walked in silence for a while, and suddenly, as if they were sick at the same time, they hugged each other and laughed crazily. The students passing by all looked at them with pity. ?

After laughing for a while, Qin Yuanmu looked at the flushed Lian Xiao and said softly: "I don't like the simple Lian Xiao anymore, I like the coquettish Lian Xiao now... You really have changed a lot recently."

Lian Xiao suppressed a smile and quickly imprinted on Qin Yuanmu's face: "Isn't it because I like you so much?"

Qin Yuanmu's expression paused slightly, and the next moment he hugged Lian Xiao even tighter in his arms.

As he walked, Qin Yuanmu had a sudden thought: "Lian Xiao, let me carry you back to the dormitory, just like we did after the first time?"

Lian Xiao ignored Qin Yuanmu's last words, stopped immediately, pointed to the dormitory building that was close at hand, and said, "It's too dishonest, next time you will start carrying me at the bottom of the art building."

Carrying Lian Xiao back without any effort, Qin Yuanmu is like a hard-working old scalper: "No problem dear, why don't I carry you to and from get out of class every day from now on?"

"Forget it, you want to be one of the top ten people who touched China, and I'm not disabled yet." Lian Xiao patted Qin Yuanmu's shoulder excitedly.

Soon, Qin Yuanmu walked into the dormitory with Lian Xiao on his back without blushing.Looking at the back of Qin Yuanmu's head, Lian Xiao couldn't hold back and said, "Qin Yuanmu..."

"Huh?" Qin Yuanmu turned his head slightly when he heard the words.

You must always love me.

"It's nothing, call out the name of the mount." Lian Xiao laughed, but still didn't dare to say that.But Lian Xiao didn't think it was necessary, even if he didn't say it, he firmly believed that Qin Yuanmu would do it.

"Okay, Lian Xiao!" Qin Yuanmu pretended to be vicious, "See how I deal with you at night!"

But that night, Qin Yuanmu didn't clean up Lian Xiao severely, and didn't even sleep together, because they received a message from the students that the Academic Affairs Office came back to check the bedroom tonight.After scolding those bald teachers countless times in his heart, Qin Yuanmu could only stand at the door of the dormitory and face Lian Xiao across the door before turning off the lights.Lian Xiao slammed the door mercilessly.

That night, the people from the academic affairs office really came to check the dormitory. Lian Xiao lay on the bed, looking at the beam of light from the flashlight in the corridor outside the house, he was immediately glad that he didn't have sperm on his head.

As a result, the phone under the pillow vibrated suddenly.

Lian Xiao thought it was Qin Yuanmu who was harassing him, and after the sound of footsteps outside went away, Lian Xiao grabbed the phone and hid it under the quilt, and happily pressed the phone screen.It turned out that the text message he saw was not from Qin Yuanmu, but from his father.

Your mother was hospitalized because of your anger, don't you still admit your mistake?

Fifteen short words plus two punctuation marks made Lian Xiao furious.Admit it?Why did he admit his mistake?Until now, do parents still feel that they are doing it for him?Even the news that Lian's mother was hospitalized was deemed false by Lian Xiao, and he wished he could smash the phone into pieces the next moment.

These days, he has been forcing a smile in front of Qin Yuanmu, and even has a feeling of worrying about gains and losses. The pressure from his parents is already great, but they show no sign of stopping at all, and instead intensify.Lian Xiao sneered, do you think your father's love and mother's love are great?

He quickly edited a text message: I remember that I have severed ties with you, right?

But the moment before clicking send, Lian Xiao's fingers still hesitated. Is this too hurtful?After thinking for a long time, Lian Xiao deleted all the typed words discouragedly, pretending that he hadn't read the text message, and forced himself to fall asleep with a quilt covering his head.

But this night, of course, he didn't sleep well.

When awakened by the alarm clock, Lian Xiao angrily smashed the board of the bed, which startled all the roommates. Why did the always gentle Lian Xiao suddenly get angry?Lian Xiao had nightmares all night, sometimes he jumped off the building himself, sometimes Lian's mother jumped from the upstairs, and finally dreamed that Lian's mother invited Qin Yuanmu to eat at home, and suddenly took a knife out of the kitchen.In short, several of them died in the dream, of course Lian Xiao's mood will not be good.

When walking with Qin Yuanmu into the teaching building, Lian Xiao's complexion was still very bad. Qin Yuanmu asked again and again, but Lian Xiao just waved his hands to force himself to laugh, which made Qin Yuanmu angry in the morning.

Walking into the class from the back door, Lian Xiao was obviously in a daze and didn't see the way clearly, and accidentally tripped over Yang Wu's stool when he walked behind Yang Wu at the door.

Yang Wu, who was catching up on sleep, woke up suddenly, and saw Lian Xiao and Qin Yuanmu behind him with sleepy eyes.He didn't have a good impression of these two people at first, but now he felt that they were looking for trouble, so he scolded after staring: "You don't have fucking eyes? Or are you looking for trouble on purpose?"

Qin Yuanmu looked at Yang Wu provocatively, and patted Lian Xiao's hair: "Good boy, I apologize to the dog, I accidentally stepped on his dog's tail."

If time could be turned back, Qin Yuanmu would never say these words anyway.It was these words that completely rewrote Lian Xiao's life.

Qin Yuanmu and Yang Wu didn't see eye to eye with each other, and the usual small friction continued, and now it finally broke out.

Yang Wu chuckled, got up from the table and sat down: "Qin Yuanmu, you said that you can't live comfortably for a few days just after your father died? Are you so excited when someone in your family dies?"

The classroom, which was not considered noisy at all, suddenly became completely silent. Qin Yuanmu looked coldly at Yang Wu who looked proud, and the anger in his heart suddenly burst out.

But before he could do anything, Wang Ya on the side couldn't help it anymore. With red eyes, she picked up the textbook on her desk and threw it on Yang Wu: "What are you talking about?!" She Having seen Qin Yuanmu collapse with his own eyes, now that Yang Wu said such words in front of Qin Yuanmu, Wang Ya really wanted to kill him.

Yang Wu struggled to stand up, and before he could reply, Qin Yuanmu rushed over and wrestled with him.Yang Wu was still cursing, Qin Yuanmu kept a cold face and said nothing, but the strength of his fists became more and more ruthless.

Wan Jiegao hadn't come to the class early in the morning, and the two fought for a long time, but no one dared to control them, until the younger brothers who usually followed Yang Wu's pretentious behavior took the lead in reacting, and joined the fighting camp while cursing.

Qin Yuanmu kept pressing Yang Wu under him with all his strength, and was caught off guard by those people who hugged him from behind, and Yang Wu kicked him away and struggled to get up.

Yang Wu roared like a wild animal, grabbed Qin Yuanmu's hair, and slammed his head on the back blackboard: "Qin Yuanmu, I have endured you for a long time! Why are you pretending to be aggressive in front of me? Are you innocent? Are you a father, I will be your father today, and educate you well!"

"Yang Wu, you bastards will bully the few with more!" Wang Ya kicked and grabbed the ground, and started pulling at one person.But she was a girl after all, and was quickly pushed to the ground.

Lian Xiao just stood there quietly watching, looking at the blood oozing from Qin Yuanmu's forehead.At this moment, it seemed that time had stopped, and when he came back to his senses, he had subconsciously grabbed the wooden bench and walked in front of Yang Wu's group who were besieging Qin Yuanmu.

Lian Xiao had never had a serious fight before, and at this moment his heart was very calm, and it seemed that he really calmed down when he was extremely angry.But his actions have nothing to do with being calm.

Lian Xiao didn't think about the consequences at all, and swung the stool twice violently. The two people who were holding Qin Yuanmu's arms immediately fell to the ground screaming, holding their hit head and wailing again and again.

Yang Wu was also frightened by Lian Xiao's crazy movements and calm eyes: "Lian Xiao, what are you doing!"

Besides protecting Qin Yuanmu, what else can I do?

Without saying a word, Lian Xiao slammed Yang Wu's head hard.Yang Wu only felt a "buzz", his eyes went black for a while, and his body retreated powerlessly as if he couldn't control it.But then, there was another sharp dull pain, and he fell to the ground completely.

Qin Yuanmu recovered from the severe pain, and what he saw was Yang Wu who was lying on the ground, and Lian Xiao who was still smashing his head with a bench.

Qin Yuanmu struggled hastily, and grabbed Lian Xiao's arm that was going to continue: "Lian Xiao! Stop beating! Are you going to kill him?"

A corner of the high-raised bench was already stained red with blood. Yang Wu fell to the ground motionless. The wound on his head seemed to be screwed to the biggest faucet, and the blood flowed out as if he didn’t want money. A creek was formed.

Lian Xiao turned a blind eye to Qin Yuanmu's stop, lifted the bench and continued to smash it, Qin Yuanmu could only grab the weapon in his hand and push him aside, staring at Lian Xiao: "Lian Xiao! It's okay , don't be frightened, don't hit..."

The muffled sound of the bench hitting the ground seemed to have finally brought back Lian Xiao's mind. He glanced at Qin Yuanmu and then at Yang Wu who was lying on the ground, as if he understood what he had just done.Countless negative emotions have been stuck in his heart for a long time, as if he had found a way to vent just now, Yang Wu became the culprit of everything, and Lian Xiao released all his anger on him.

Looking at Qin Yuanmu's concerned eyes, Lian Xiao actually smiled, and touched the wound on Qin Yuanmu's forehead distressedly: "Qin Yuanmu, I want to protect you well, I don't regret it."

At this time, there was a rush of footsteps in the corridor, and Wan Jiegao hurried to the classroom after receiving the news of the students fighting.Although he knew that there was a fight, he thought it was just a small fight, and now he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

After holding on to the wall for a while, Wan Jiegao shouted to the students who were also terrified around him: "Call 120!"

When the ambulance roared into the campus, Qin Yuanmu thought it was a police car.He suddenly realized a very serious question, will Yang Wu die?What if Lian Xiao killed him by accident, or even if he didn't die, what if the Yang Wu family wanted to pursue his criminal responsibility?Lian Xiao has grown up...

Qin Yuanmu leaned against the wall expressionlessly at the back of the messy classroom, looking at Lian Xiao who was also expressionless.Qin Yuanmu, who seems to be calm, is turbulent in his heart. Lian Xiao is an adult, but he is not yet. If he is sentenced, whether he is a minor or not should have some influence, right?

Back then, Qin Yuanmu had no hesitation in planning to take responsibility for Lian Xiao.

The author has something to say: I was on vacation last week, and I don’t want to do anything...

A chaotic week in the midst of letting everything go...

Daily updates will resume from this week~
