Chapter Nine Chen Shao
Who is Albrecht Dürer, just mentioning the name may not be familiar to many people. But if you say that painter who became famous for painting bird droppings, many people probably know him now.
This is a pioneering artist type of painter, better than that so-called painter who painted with hair on nails a few years ago. A few years ago, he couldn't paint oil paintings, but later he wholeheartedly painted birds. What kind of bird's corpse, featherless birds, bird shit... He actually became famous in Europe before the financial crisis, and one of his paintings was priced at nearly one million euros.
At this point, for the outside society, how the painter's work itself is no longer important. What matters is that many people will be curious about what a painting worth tens of millions looks like?
Such a ruthless character, can actually bring paintings to open an exhibition in Binhaishi, a second-tier city. There is no better explanation than the Chinese people have stood up... Su Yifan saw Du Weike's paintings online and couldn't help but feel uninterested, so he lazily didn't raise his hand.
Four tickets, Cheng Shui Xin herself must go, and there are three more spots. Even if they can't go to the painting exhibition alone with Cheng Shui Xin, this is still an opportunity to accompany her, and instantly many boys' eyes shone with eager light.
Cheng Shui Xin continued, "I'm really sorry, my ability is limited, I can only get these four tickets. Students who want to go from the Literature Society, please report your names and we'll decide by drawing lots."
Cheng Shui Xin's style is different from some cadres in school, she said she would be fair and she will definitely be fair. At least the students in the Literature Society believe her.
Drawing lots is actually a lively atmosphere, since ancient times schools have not been democratic, and classmates are very excited about this joyful and lucky activity.
Cheng Shui Xin personally handed out small pieces of paper and carbon pens, asking everyone to write their names on them. Afterwards, they were thrown into a small black box.
Among the discussions, Cheng Shuiying shook the box while smiling and said: "Also, in a few days there will be an excellent teacher evaluation activity in the city. As usual, we need to submit a few articles. Everyone should work hard for these few days and don't slack off, okay?"
There are only a few days left before the evaluation begins, and Cheng Shuiying's words mean that everyone will have to think of some eulogistic words for their teachers over the weekend. Everyone takes this kind of evaluation very seriously, which may not even happen once a year, and no one shows any negative emotions about it.
Cheng Shui Xin shook the box well and placed it in the center of the table.
"Sui Yifan, you come be everyone's lucky goddess."
One sentence made everyone in the literary society burst out laughing. Su Yifan's seat was quite far from Cheng Shuihan, and he didn't care much about this level of joke, so he got up to get that box.
Cheng Shui Xin naturally bent down and handed the box to Su Yi Fan, but in their relay, there was actually Li Pei Ran in between, who was unexpectedly ignored by Cheng Shui Xin, whether intentionally or not.
Li Peiran's mouth twitched, and he forced a smile, saying: "Good luck, Goddess of Fortune, I'm looking forward to going to the art exhibition with President Cheng."
Su Yifan took the black box and almost instinctively replied: "Okay, I believe you really love art."
Can't help but say, honest people can also be very venomous when speaking ill. Su Yifan's understanding of Li Peiran is limited to his hypocrisy and pretentiousness, and both times he counterattacked in this direction today, with great effect.
Li Peiran's face looked unpleasant, and Cheng Shuiying was also quite surprised. Su Yifan had always been someone who didn't like to argue with people over words, had he really changed his nature now?
Everyone in Wenxue She is quite familiar with Su Yifan, and those who attended the meeting were shocked. Su Yifan sarcastically said that his monitor Li Peiran was really changing too fast.
Li Peiran's face was gloomy, just about to open his mouth to speak, when a knock at the door came from outside.
The door of the activity room was never locked, and the knock on the door proved that the person who came was relatively polite. Cheng Shui seemed to have thought of something and slightly furrowed his brow, saying loudly: "Come in."
The door was pushed open and three people came in.
He was the first person, quite tall, with a height of over 1.8 meters, but unfortunately, he was a bit thin, and his cowboy pants legs still looked a bit empty. He had a square face, not handsome, nor ugly. What's rare is that his face was very clean, without a single pimple, wearing a pair of frameless gold-rimmed glasses, with a faint smile on his face.
Behind him were two boys who were a bit shorter than him, quite sturdy, and pitch-black from head to toe. At first glance, you could tell they were the ringleaders of the school team.
There were many high school students who could bring two idle followers to wander around the school, but there was only one who was so weak and refined. When Li Peiran saw this person appear, his already uncomfortable mood became even more unbearable.
In Li Pei Ran's eyes, Su Yi Fan was definitely a being lower than himself, but the one in front of him now was absolutely higher than himself by several levels.
If pursuing Tsinghua University qualification is based on individual conditions, he can rank among the top few in a high school, while I can only wander around the middle and lower reaches.
The person who came was none other than Chen Xin, who had gone to great lengths just to make a beautiful woman smile.
"Excuse me, I'm disturbing everyone." Chen Xin was quite bold and followed two people to school, but his manners were still very polite. "I just passed by here and accidentally heard President Cheng's words."
After Chen Xin spoke, no one else said a word. His presence was far from ordinary students, and besides, Chen Xin often came to the literary club to chat with everyone, so they were all relatively familiar with him.
It was Chen Xin's first time to encounter such a sudden situation like today's meeting. Cheng Shuiying unexpectedly raised her head, smoothed out her hair and looked at Chen Xin who was talking eloquently.
"Director Cheng is so dedicated to bringing benefits to everyone, I'm really touched just listening to him." Chen Xin said with an exaggerated expression, eliciting a round of flattering laughter. "I don't have any special skills, but I'll help Director Cheng out. At next Tuesday's art exhibition, I personally will donate 15 tickets to the Literature Club."
Chen Xin's words were understated, but still elicited a few gasps. This international art exhibition had a strong commercial atmosphere, and the number of invitation tickets was definitely limited. Chen Gongzi took out fifteen at once, directly depriving the Literary Society of the fun of drawing lots.
Cheng Shui-xin let out a faint sigh in her heart, among these boys who were showing off to her like peacocks, Chen Xin was probably the only one who had a bit of real maturity inside. This move once again made it impossible for her to refuse, seemingly unintentionally letting the literature club members acknowledge his feelings, and subtly revealing Chen Gong-zi's intentions.
Chen Xin's face flashed with a hint of pleasure, and he smiled, saying: "As long as you don't hate me, it's all right. Actually, the lottery is also a kind of fun, but I've ruined it."
Li Peiran forced a unnatural smile and interjected: "No no, we should be thanking Chen Xin for her strong support."
Su Yifan looked at the class monitor, who had been his deskmate for over a year, in surprise. He had never thought that someone could say such flattering words so naturally. Su Yifan felt that he had underestimated Li Peiran, and this person would definitely be a hundred times more formidable than himself in the future.
Chen Xin entered the activity room and sat down naturally at a distance from Cheng Shui'an that was neither too far nor too close. This was also one of Chen Xin's clever moves, as he never overdid it in public gatherings, not even giving Cheng Shui'an a chance to express her dissatisfaction.
Su Yifan sat back down, narrowing his eyes as he sized up Chen Xin and Li Peiran.
In the past, Su Yifan always believed that these two were not in the same world as himself and never paid attention to what kind of performance these self-satisfied young masters had. Now, with a cold eye, Su Yifan only discovered the subtlety of it all.
In school, the gap between people is not as big as imagined. Su Yifan and Li Peiran thought differently, he felt that no matter what aspect, Chen Xin was not much stronger than himself.
Throughout the meeting, Chen Xin sat naturally on one side, not speaking or paying attention to Cheng Shuiying. He took out an English version of "The Bird's Collection" and flipped through it casually, also waving his hand to let the two followers go first.
After Chen Xin's sudden interruption, Cheng Shuiyi completely lost interest in continuing the meeting. She hastily mentioned a few words about the script and announced the end of the meeting.
Everyone got up with mixed emotions and dispersed. Many people noticed that Chen Xin did not intend to get up, and even the "Fei Niao Ji" in his hand was not put down.
As the president, Cheng Shui Xin must be the last one to leave. Chen Xin's style is probably waiting for Cheng Shui Xin and then "happening" to send her home.
Li Peiran hesitated for a few minutes, and the entanglement in his heart was quite obvious on his face. In the end, he just said hello to Cheng Shuiying and left.
According to the literary club's old rules, Su Yifan still had to help Cheng Shuiyan sweep the floor before leaving, and today was no exception.
Cheng Shui Xin looked at Chen Xin, who was reluctant to leave, and then at Su Yi Fan, who was wiping the blackboard. Comparing the two, Cheng Shui Xin almost without hesitation waved at Su Yi Fan: "Su Yi Fan, I said yesterday that I wanted to treat you to dinner but didn't get a chance yet, can you give me some face today?"
Cheng Shui Xin turned her head and smiled at Chen Xin again: "Chen Xin, you come too, I don't know how to thank you for your help to our literature club."
Chen Xin slowly closed the book in his hand, feeling slightly surprised.
Cheng Shui Xin wouldn't be surprised even if he refused Chen Xin's request. This Su Yi Fan, Chen Xin understood him thoroughly, knowing that this kid was definitely not an important figure in Cheng Shui Xin's eyes. Yet, Cheng Shui Xin actually used this kid as a shield, could it be because they had been in contact for so long and had really started to think of this kid as somewhat important in his heart?
Chen Xin had a faintly ominous feeling.
"How can we let a beauty pay the bill?" Chen Xin still had some tact, and his smile was more sincere than Li Pei Ran's. "I'll treat today, how about we go to Hai Shang Ming Yue?"
Cheng Shui Xin shook her head resolutely: "No way, can't let you spend any more money."
Is it another bright moon on the sea? Su Yifan almost went crazy in his heart...
Chen Xin immediately stopped refuting, and what he appreciated most about Cheng Shuiyan was this very point. Cheng Shuiyan would never take advantage of any small benefits, nor would she mind who spent how much money on her. Such a carefree girl was absolutely a rare species in high school.
In the end, it was Cheng Shuiying who paid for dinner at a Sichuan restaurant next to the school. Chen Xin thought that Cheng Shuiying did it on purpose and didn't give him a chance to show off his ride - among all high school students, only a few drove themselves to school, and even fewer drove Jaguars.
Because Su Yifan was there, the meal was eaten quickly, and Chen Xin didn't have much chance to say anything that would bring the two closer together. Most importantly, Cheng Shuiyan obviously smiled at Su Yifan more often, and always took the initiative to talk to him.
Chen Xin felt for the first time that Su Yifan, this completely harmless guy, was a bit annoying.
For Su Yifan, this meal was also very unappetizing, as Su Xiaqing had not appeared for the entire day.
A faint sense of loss made Su Yifan a little afraid, he feared that all of this was just a strange dream.
Cheng Shui Xin noticed that Su Yi Fan's mind was elsewhere, and she was secretly shocked. This time during dinner, she didn't play with her phone or look at it, but instead, Su Yi Fan took out his phone several times to check if there were any messages.
Seeing this, Cheng Shui's heart couldn't help but feel a little resentful: I'm not even playing with my phone, how dare you be distracted?
This thought flashed through Cheng Shui's mind, and then she realized that she was usually too casual with Su Yifan, wasn't she being too excessive?
As she thought about it, Cheng Shui Xin herself also drifted off...
So on the dinner table of three people, only Chen Xin was left to look around in distress, how painful is it to eat with two people whose minds are not on eating?
What's even more painful is that one of them is someone you want to pursue...
