(Ah ah ah, please give me a monthly pass.)
The sky was dark, and the dots of stars were like silver beads falling from the sky. A missing moon cast a hazy halo on the two people in the yard.
Sakai Katsuko gently rubbed her head on Gu Weijing's neck. The fragrance of apricot flowers drifted from her warm body and hair, slowly wrapping Gu Weijing.
Gu Weijing could feel that Shengzi's hand holding his was sweating, and his own hand was sweating too. The two of them squeezed their hands together gently.
The ears and temples rub together,
Heartbeat like a bell.
Among the few girls I have had limited contact with,
He has rarely had such intimate and warm moments. Mona always treats him at a distance, and Coco is like an elusive cat. Where is Miss Sakai?
Ms. Sakai has always been gentle,
Even now, even though she was leaning on his shoulder, it was like a warm spring water was surrounding him, as if she was about to melt away.
Gu Weijing used to be a little hesitant and soft about relationships.
His emotional experience is no richer than that of Katsuko Sakai next to him, and his social experience is not as good as Miss Sakai who has traveled around the world.
At a certain moment, he thought that he would spend his life with Mona in the future. After learning from Mrs. Sakai that Miss Sakai might like him, the joy in his heart was more of vanity and anxiety.
Who wouldn't feel vain to be liked by such an outstanding girl?
perturbed,
It was because Gu Weijing didn't know how to deal with it.
He was too naive about this kind of thing.
Mr. Gu was very strict with Gu Weijing's tutoring. At heart, his grandfather Gu Tongxiang was still a very traditional oriental scholar who valued family and close relationships.
He is not like a rigid old scholar who is afraid that his children's love affairs will affect their studies.
But since Gu Weijing entered senior year and Mona came to play at home for the first time, the old man had discussed this issue with Gu Weijing.
Boys like girls and girls like boys. This is human nature and instinct. There is nothing to be shy about.
But love requires mutual commitment.
In addition to enjoying happiness, you also need to take responsibility. If you are talking about friends with someone, you must consider them more.
This is his only request for his grandson.
otherwise,
For a "gentleman", without the courage to take responsibility, he has no right to fall in love.
According to this standard,
Gu Weijing felt that the hero Yang Guo in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" he watched when he was a child was a very gentleman.
Guo Xiang is very good, the young lady from the Gongsun family is very good, Lu Wushuang or Cheng Ying are also very good and cute, but if you like Xiao Longnu, you just like Xiao Longnu, and you want to stay with each other for life.
Mingjiao teaches that Wuji is a typical counterexample. If you fall in love with someone you meet, even if you look more decent than Yang Guo, who acts bohemian, you are still not a gentleman enough.
If you become a true lover with Katsuko Sakai,
He shouldn't think about Mona, shouldn't eat the biscuits fed by Kou Kou, and even ask Mrs. Sakai to add a place in the advanced class, he should think twice about Shengzi's feelings.
There is no such thing as "ambiguously good friends" with other girls even though I like you.
Your girlfriend is entangled with other men, and you must be very unhappy.
In turn, boys must also take on the responsibilities of boys.
Gu Weijing had never been sure whether he was ready to take responsibility, so he had been a little nervous and entangled. Faced with her overtures, he even had a muddled mentality.
tonight,
He was actually confessed to by Sakai Katsuko?
Gu Weijing's heart beat rapidly,
The beautiful girl openly said in his ear that he was her lover, which made his whole body become light and airy, as if he was full of hydrogen and would float to the sky at any time.
He turned his head and looked at Miss Sakai.
Sakai Katsuko was also staring at him.
"Katsuko?" His lips moved.
"Am I beautiful?" Sakai Katsuko asked softly.
Under the moonlight, her skin was as smooth and moist as the finest bone china, with a shy flush.
Such a bold show of love made the young lady a little shy, and her earlobes turned red all the way to her neck. However, Shengzi still mustered up the courage and looked at Gu Weijing without flinching.
The girl's warm and sweet breath blew on the tip of his nose and neck in strands, and her lavender pupils were like kaleidoscopes decorated with fine crystals.
The whole person looks incredibly beautiful.
"Gu Jun, I like you."
Sakai Katsuko repeated softly, her face turning redder, but her voice was firm and strong.
She gently leaned towards Gu Weijing's ear and whispered to his earlobe: "I am your girl."
Gu Weijing felt that somewhere in his heart was melting under the other person's warm gaze.
I'm your girl!
As he heard these words, his heart made a loud sound like a bell being struck by a heavy hammer. Gu Weijing felt an unprecedented sense of ownership and satisfaction.
he knows,
No matter what, it's time for me to give Miss Katsuko a proper explanation.
He took his phone out of his pocket.
Gu Weijing's cell phone lock screen wallpaper is still a photo of him and Mona a few years ago.
In the screen photo,
He and Miss Mona were next to each other.
Girls in puberty develop faster than boys. At that time, Mona was about the same height as herself.
The two of them were shoulder to shoulder, with their hands held together just like today, with the continuous coastline of Yangon in the background, and they were smiling intimately.
As if it happened yesterday, Gu Weijing still clearly remembers the time and place where this photo was taken.
That was when I was in eleventh grade,
He and Mona went to the Moma Sea Amusement Park in Yangon during the summer vacation.
There is the largest Ferris wheel in Myanmar, and it also has an automatic camera function that provides photos for tourists in the pod when the Ferris wheel falls.
Taking photos is free. The pod will take pictures when it moves to a fixed position. You have to pay to take the photos away.
It costs 30,000 kyat to develop a photo, and the same price to copy an electronic version. Add 15,000 kyat to get an extra photo frame.
Mona asked if they wanted to get a photo.
Gu Weijing thought it was a bit expensive. 30,000 kyats can be used to develop half a dozen photos in a photo studio. Mona smiled.
A few days later, Miss Sandenou suddenly took his mobile phone and operated it, and this photo became Gu Weijing's screensaver, which he uses to this day.
When Gu Weijing and Mona went out to play together, all expenses were always paid by AA. He wanted to transfer the money for the photos to the other party, but Mona refused.
"We will come here again in ten years and take the same photo, and you will treat us next time." Mona just smiled at that time.
The hazy good feelings in adolescence, like the heavy spring rain in Yangon, come and go.
Only two years have passed,
When Gu Weijing looked at this photo again, he felt that things were different and people were different.
"Bro, You are best suited to each other! (Boss, you and your sister-in-law are really well suited for each other.)"
Just at this time,
There is a notification of new news in the classmate group on social software.
He clicked in subconsciously.
Jerry just shared a photo, and people in the chat group are discussing it heatedly.
There are students constantly sending emoticons of flowers and exclamations like "It's so romantic" in the group.
In just a few minutes, there were already hundreds of new messages.
Special effects of couples spending time flashing across social media screens.
Gu Weijing clicked on the message and saw that it was a photo of a restaurant. Mona and Jerry were wearing formal clothes, sitting on both sides of a small square table covered with a plaid tablecloth, filled with roses and candlesticks, looking at each other through the candlelight.
The photos are indeed romantic enough to be submitted to photography magazines.
Gu Weijing smiled silently.
"You can have candlelight dinner anytime, but I can watch the rain with you." Sakai Shengzi took Gu Weijing's hand.
She knew that Gu Weijing seemed to have some stories with this little girl named Mona, so she thoughtfully comforted her: "You have me."
Gu Weijing shook his head gently.
He turned on his phone not because he was feeling unbalanced.
He found the social address book and clicked on Mona's avatar. Although the other party had deleted his friend, all the chat records for so many years were saved on his phone.
[Gu Weijing, how long has it been since you came to the studio? 】
[Gu Weijing, shall we go out together next week? 】
[Gu Weijing, come to our house to do homework together on the weekend...]
[I heard that there is a new ramen restaurant that is good. Let’s go there together after school. I brought you a small cake...]
…
All the records of interactions over the years are left here. The screen slides by casually, like a long river of memories.
"So be it."
Gu Weijing hesitated for a moment and said to himself in his heart.
Looking at these chat records, Sakai Katsuko's eyes dimmed for a moment.
With this kind of experience of growing up together, Sakai Katsuko really couldn't compare with that Miss Sandenu.
This precious life experience must be a very beautiful memory.
She wasn't jealous, just envious.
The next second, Sakai Katsuko's eyes widened in surprise. She saw Gu Weijing long-press to select Mona's avatar, and then click to delete.
[You are deleting a contact (MONA). After deletion, the related chat records between you and the contact will be cleared and cannot be recovered. Are you sure? 】
A corresponding eye-catching English prompt popped up on the screen.
"No need, what a good memory, keep it." Sakai Shengzi felt a little sorry for Gu Weijing.
"No, it's over."
Gu Weijing chose OK, watched the chat bar completely disappear from his phone, turned to look at Sakai Katsuko, and said softly.
"Miss Sakai, you are also my lover."
——
"I will take care of my mother, and we will come over and paint together after school."
Sakai Katsuko moved her small easel, and she and Gu Weijing moved the copied works from the concierge's hut to the small studio in the orphanage, and tidied up the room on the way.
As a newly hired assistant, Uncle Alai originally wanted to help.
But the janitor has a high emotional intelligence;
When he walked in and saw the boys and girls talking and laughing, the atmosphere was just right, and he disappeared into the shadows very wisely.
Before leaving,
The uncle just looked at Gu Weijing with a playful look, and by the way, he took away a little jasmine light bulb that was sticking to Sakai Katsuko like a curious baby, full of yearning for the beautiful big sister.
"You can add an easel here and face the sun. When the weather is good, you may be able to see the Yangon River in the distance."
Miss Sakai looked at this small room with emotion, as if the newlywed hostess was planning their cabin.
"We can put two more bean bag sofas here. And add a lighting set there. Well, two bean bag sofas are not enough, so we can buy a few more small mats. During the break, we can teach art to the children in the orphanage. Class, teach Jasmine how to appreciate art, I teach them sketching, you teach them colors..."
Sakai Katsuko tilted her head, her eyes in trance.
A girl's nature has already made her start to imagine how she should spend the next half semester.
No,
Half a semester is not enough, it is many, many years to come.
Thinking of this, Sakai Katsuko asked Gu Weijing who was standing aside: "What are your plans? If you want, do you want to go to the Tama Art Academy where my father goes to study? I will go to Professor Lin Tao. Although Central Academy of Fine Arts is very good. At the Academy of Fine Arts, Professor Lin Tao is also a very famous painter, but..."
Having said this, Shengzi gently raised their interlocked hands, shook them slightly and said.
"But obviously my dad must take better care of you than Professor Lin."
Katsuko Sakai has always known that her father, Professor Kazunari Sakai, admires the boys around her, but unfortunately Professor Lin Tao takes the lead.
CAFA is the top art school in Asia, ranking no lower than Tama Art Academy, a prestigious private school in Japan.
It's not just about Lin Tao's face, but also about Mr. Cao's face.
Even if he likes Gu Weijing, Professor Sakai Kazunari cannot compete with Cao Xuan's oldest living disciple.
Now,
It's different. In a Japanese family, a son-in-law may be more important than an unhappy son.
Miss Sakai believes that even if Gu Weijing switches from Professor Lin Tao to his father's school, Professor Lin will understand.
Seeing that Gu Weijing didn't look too excited, Sakai Katsuko whispered in his ear: "My father signed an OFA agency contract. Let me tell you a secret, he might be able to push you away." I’m interning in that ‘grandma’’s studio.”
Gu Weijing's eyes blinked.
OFA is the abbreviation of OTA FINE ARTS, a Japanese gallery, which is one of the fine galleries in Asia.
Its scale is incomparable to Gagosian, PACE, and Lisson, super galleries with billions of dollars in liquidity. It takes a boutique route, and its turnover is only one level higher than that of Taro Komatsu's Komatsu Gallery.
But OFA has a truly important figure, their leading artist-Yayoi Kusama.
This old lady has held the top spot as the most valuable female artist in history in various art lists for many years in a row, higher than the second to tenth place combined.
She is also the first woman in human history, starting from the time when the ancient Egyptians painted murals on stone walls in 5,000 BC, to have her works sold for more than $100 million.
Yayoi Kusama and Cao Xuan are both six and a half stars in the artist buyer ratings listed in Oil Painting magazine, and they are tied for first place in the list of living artists, second only to Andy Waugh after he was shot. The Seven Stars of the Lotus.
Unexpectedly, Shengzi would have such a connection.
Many people ask about Anna. Actually, I haven’t decided who the heroine will be. According to the current arrangement, Miss Anna’s big role will have to wait until the Singapore Art Exhibition.
If you have a preference for the heroine, you are welcome to discuss it in the group. I will always refer to readers' opinions. Which girl do you like more? You are welcome to give feedback to the author. The one you like more is what the author wants to write.
thank you all!
