58.

In fact, Professor Li is still right.

After climbing down the mountain once, Sun Du had a new idea about his painting.Originally, he wanted to draw Xie Tang wearing a black suit, sitting behind the mahogany desk in his study, correcting documents.Behind him are two opaque black curtains, and only through the gap between the two curtains can one see a cluster of green shoots protruding from the outside and a ray of bright sunlight.

But Sun Du always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, he just felt that the painting of Xie Tang was too dark, too cold, and too far away.

After climbing down the mountain this time, he had a new way of thinking.He planned to draw Xie Tang's side profile and the mountain.The rolling mountains are the background, Xie Tang looking sideways into the distance is the subject, and the Milky Way flows between the mountains and Xie Tang.Xie Tang's deep blue eyes are as cold as the night sky, but if you look closely, you will feel that there are stars reflected in his eyes, shining quietly.Speaking abstractly, only he knows how to draw.

For a whole week, Sun Du didn't go to the study to read in the afternoon. Since he came back from Professor Li's house in the morning, after having dinner, he locked himself in a studio arranged by Xie Tang, sat on a chair, and painted beautifully. put in.Every time when Xie Tang came back and the Filipino maid came up to knock on the door, he only realized that the afternoon had passed.

Xie Tang knew that he was painting recently, so he didn't ask too much.Sitting on a chair in the dining room, when he saw Sun Du coming down, he said lightly, "Dinner."

Sun Du has always been used to being indifferent towards Xie Tang.

Sun Du was still thinking about his painting, and just wanted to finish his meal quickly and continue painting—in fact, it didn't matter if he didn't eat dinner, and he regarded it as weight loss.

But obviously, Xie Tang doesn't agree with the idea of ​​forgetting to eat and sleep at all.

When Sun Du was painting on the first day, he just didn't want to come down, so he sent the Filipino maid a few words and continued painting.Until Xie Tang came up unhurriedly and gently knocked on his door, under Sun Du's stunned expression with paint on his left face, Xie Tang said to him quite seriously, "You don't need three meals, it's because life is not enough. manifestation of the law."

Sun Du obediently came down to eat.

Sun Du picked and picked, ate a piece of steak, chewed a few green vegetable leaves, wiped his lips and kissed Xie Tang on one side, and went upstairs with his slippers on.

While going up the stairs, he shouted, "I'm going upstairs——Xie Tang, take your time."

The butler at the side glanced quietly at Xie Tang, and found that Xie Tang's face was the same as usual, expressionless, neither unhappy nor anything else.

Xie Tang glanced at the excited Sun Du, and continued to cut the steak without being affected at all.

After he bowed his head and took a few bites, he also picked up the napkin to wipe his mouth and stopped eating.

"Let the kitchen prepare a fruit salad and a piece of Leblanc." Xie Tang stood up, turned to the side and said to the butler, "Send it at 19 o'clock."

This week has been going on for several days, and Sun Du woke up in the middle of the night holding his arm and muttering, so hungry!Going to starve to death!Tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, usually groaning and yelling hungry, but unwilling to get up in the middle of the night to eat.

Xie Tang thought for a while, then added, "Low sugar, less fat."

He worked out with Sun Du, and he also knew Sun Du's eating rules.That is, do not eat after 20 o'clock in the evening, and only eat low-sugar, sugar-free, low-fat and skimmed things.

Xie Tang doesn't have so many rules, but he never eats any snacks. He always eats nothing except fruit supplemented with vitamins after three meals.One is that he has no desire to eat these small snacks, and the other is that he thinks it is unnecessary.

The butler responded respectfully, turned around and walked to the kitchen to arrange it himself.

Sun Du stayed in the studio, and now he finally finished the first draft.

He always has some perfectionism about the paintings he creates.The former teacher Guo also reminded him not to change the painting too frequently in the examination room, otherwise the time will not be enough.

However, he just couldn't change it, and he didn't want any flaws and regrets in his paintings.

The drafts he threw all over the ground are the best proof.

But when Sun Du was admiring his first draft with some joy, he suddenly discovered that it might be because he didn't fix the canvas well at first, and the whole painting was slightly tilted.

Although this tilt can be regarded as almost 0.

But the originally satisfied smile on Sun Du's face cracked like this.

Sun Du took down the first draft in frustration.It's a pity that he has to paint again.Sun Du sat on the chair and sighed, trying to take it easy.

Even if Sun Du is a little paranoid about perfection, drawing the same steps over and over again still makes him a little bit haggard.

Sun Du closed his fox eyes, relaxed his eyes, and his brain that was highly concentrated when painting.He really wants to smoke a cigarette now to relieve his mood.

But Xie Tang obviously doesn't like smoke land.

Sun Du involuntarily diverged his thoughts.

A 35-year-old man, in a high position, treats others indifferently, and strangely treats his subordinates, or anyone else, in a peaceful manner, without looking down or contemptuous.The daily life remains the same, I don’t stay up late, I don’t get up late, I don’t like smoking, I don’t like alcohol, and I’m not interested in beauties.

I don't know what Xie Tang cares about.

On the contrary, Sun Du responded to Xie Tang's evaluation for the first time, being indifferent, indifferent, and not caring about anyone.

Sun Du looked at the drawing paper all over the place, and couldn't help thinking that every time he drew these paintings, whether it was the first time or the last time just now, what he could feel was a sense of peace.

It is not the ice and snow every time after the winter solstice, and the silence of everything, but the silence when a person melts into the vast and vast nature.In this kind of stillness, all the sounds of leaves moving, insects chirping, flowers blooming and birds flapping their wings are infinitely amplified and rang in my ears.

Just as Sun Du was thinking about it, someone knocked on the studio door.

Sun Du got up, stepped over a piece of drawing paper on the ground, and opened the door quite unexpectedly. Unless it was bed time, there would be no Filipino maids to disturb him—and now, it was only around 19 o'clock.

It turned out not to be a Filipino maid, but a butler holding a tray with a bowl of fruit salad and a plate of Lefranc.

The housekeeper said respectfully that Mr. Xie had arranged the preparation, which was low in sugar and fat, and Sun Du took it with a smile.A few words of thanks, and after the housekeeper bowed several times in trepidation, he brought it into the studio and prepared to eat it.

Sun Du put the tray on a clean table in the studio. There was a window in front of the table. Through the window, one could just see the pond and lawn in the yard.

Sun Du got up and pushed open the window, and the night breeze and cicadas entered the room.

In a good mood, he picked up the fork and ate a small tomato, then pushed Lefranc apart, picked up a small piece and ate it.After all, it is low-sugar and low-fat, not as sweet and silky as the French Lefranc outside.But when you eat it in one bite, the rich egg aroma in your mouth is also satisfying.

Sun Du ate so happily that he completely forgot about his desire to smoke earlier.

After eating all the fruit salad and Leblanc, and it was almost 20 o'clock, Sun Du picked up the facial tissue on the tray and wiped his mouth.Although it is low-sugar and low-fat, he still has to increase his fitness tomorrow.

Just as he was about to take out the tableware to the Filipino maid, and was about to wash it himself, his cell phone, which had been left on the table with a black screen all day, suddenly turned on.

Sun Du looked at it with some surprise.

It was a text message, and the sender was a string of unfamiliar phone numbers.

"Mr. Sun, hello. I am Li Mei. This Wednesday at 15:[-], can I ask you to meet in private at Zhuchayuan? I have something to discuss with Mr. Sun. I hope Mr. Sun will not refuse this private meeting." The meeting! This is very important to you!"
