Kou Kou took part in the pottery class again in the second year.
By that time, she had straightened her teeth, used an orthokeratology lens to take off her glasses, and her skin began to slowly become whiter, tenderer, and smoother.
She is no longer withdrawn and no longer given nicknames.
Girls are like roses in May and June. It only takes a moment to go from green and thorny dead grass to blooming flowers.
More and more boys will pay attention to her.
Many people even began to take the initiative to surround her.
Kou Kou looked at everyone with a smile on her face, searching, searching, but she did not find the figure she wanted to see the most.
She even tried every means to get the registration list for last year's summer pottery class. She searched for the timetables one by one, but still found very little.
I didn't even see the name of that annoying guy named Mona.
She asked the ceramics class teacher and learned that there was a two-week affordable short-term trial class in August and September last year.
Many parents send their children to try pottery for a short period of time, which is not considered a formal registration class.
The registration form from that time has long been thrown away.
Fencing, chess, vocal music, Latin dance, acting classes, violin...
Later, Kou Kou attended many interest classes. Anyway, my father felt that he owed this little girl something. And I am happy to see my daughter become more and more cheerful.
Isn't it just paying money to attend interest classes?
superior!
It doesn’t matter whether you can learn it well or not, or how well you learn it. As long as Kou Kou opens her mouth, Dad will definitely agree.
However, the city is too big and the population is huge.
Myanmar is the second largest country in Southeast Asia.
There are nearly 10 million people living around Yangon alone. It is not easy to find a needle in the haystack and meet somewhere again among millions of people.
Kou Kou didn't really want to find what the boy was doing.
She just likes walking in the city and learning different courses one after another leisurely.
Just like the little girl who was lucky to survive that winter night, waited until she got the pumpkin car, and lived in her own castle and palace. No longer needing to keep warm, she would still wear the beautiful fox fur, strike a match when she had nothing to do, and watch the phosphorus fire rising from her fingertips again and again.
Somewhere in the world, at some moment in time, she had seen that clean and warm smile.
Maybe around the next corner, in the next class.
Koko can sit next to him and say hello with a smile.
So her father, who was in grade nine, suddenly asked her, since she liked enrolling in interest classes so much, why not just transfer from Baixiang Middle School to Dulwich College, a prestigious local private school.
Kou Kou did not refuse.
On the first day of transferring school, Kou Kou originally had no hope, but she received a huge surprise.
In fact, she had made a very serious judgment a long time ago, after so many years.
Memories can always beautify a person infinitely.
The boy named Gu may have become a little fat guy now. He may no longer have a gentle smile. He may also like to mock people and give others nicknames.
Maybe even if I really saw that guy again and passed by him, I wouldn't recognize him.
But it’s so good,
Apart from being enlarged from what he remembered, almost nothing about him had changed.
She is still so thin, still so gentle, still so cute and likes to act mature sometimes.
From the first second she stepped into the class door, Kou Kou recognized each other.
Although she knew that the other party must have long forgotten about the little girl with braces.
The only bad thing is that it's a bit too much like when I was a kid.
Even Mona, the annoying spirit next to her, hasn't changed.
When Kou Kou heard from her father that Gu Weijing donated a huge sum of money to the children in the orphanage.
She didn't know where this guy got such a large sum of money, but she didn't find it strange at all.
This boy is the kind of person who would do such things!
"Damn it, I knew that this guy's good-natured character would sooner or later attract the wolves outside."
Mona sniffed and thought angrily.
She tried her best to recall the shriveled little transparent girl in the pottery class.
No matter how she thought about it, Mona could not compare the dark and thin girl with glasses with the charming female temptress in front of her, a woman with 18-year-old transformation, perky breasts and perky butt, white skin and long legs.
She and Gu Weijing did take pottery classes together.
Mona still has a small pottery cup at home with a crooked handle. The handle looks like a dog chewing it, and it should be the masterpiece of this guy in front of her.
to be honest.
Mona really can't remember even the precious memories that Koko mentioned.
Who cares about that kind of little transparent girl?
In other words, central air conditioners like Gu Weijing can release warmth to people when they are full.
This is just great.
Hear this story.
Mona didn't feel like "Wow! So we knew each other when we were kids." Instead, she felt very angry.
She finally understood why Kou Kou always gossiped about her relationship with Gu Weijing.
It turned out that this bitch had been coquettishly ogling her little donkey outside the wall. As soon as she didn't want it, someone rushed over and took it away.
even……
"Have you guys hooked up a long time ago? Bitch."
Mona felt that she had been cuckolded by the mistress outside for no reason, and she put her hands on her hips angrily.
If it weren't for the slender waist and long legs, it would be good to exercise.
In terms of combat effectiveness, she probably couldn't tear him apart.
Miss Sandenou could not wait to pounce on Kou Kou and bite her.
"laugh--"
Koko smiled mockingly.
"First, you clearly know that Gu Weijing has a crush on you, but he has never really confirmed the relationship, so he hangs on to you in such a close and not far away way. In terms of green tea, who can be more of a bitch than Miss Sandenu?" Son, even if I lure your boyfriend away, I’m still a good girl.”
"Second, even in this situation, I never hooked up with Gu Weijing. I did hope that Gu Weijing would take the initiative to like me, but I never took the initiative to destroy your relationship. I even endured the discomfort , I have reminded you several times that you should know how to cherish such a boyfriend. Sister, it was you who fell in love with that Jerry. You were so greedy for money that you turned a deaf ear to him."
"You don't understand how good he is, I cherish him. If you don't want me to take him away, blame me."
Kou Kou has always had a strange impression of Gu Weijing.
Under the filter of memories - good feelings, gratitude, curiosity, hazy emotions, excitement of reunion... all kinds of miscellaneous feelings that are constantly being sorted out and confused are mixed together.
It seems that the cute new bartender has added various ingredients to the cocktail on the bar.
It makes people feel dizzy after drinking it, and even Kou Kou herself can't tell what it feels like.
Kou Kou doesn't have to eat Gu Weijing.
An emotional person like her can clearly realize the beautiful and hazy first love between Gu Weijing and Mona.
She didn't want to take the initiative to ruin this feeling.
Kou Kou was very grateful to Gu Weijing.
She felt that she should not get involved in other people's love affairs in order to repay the boy for smiling at him in the first place.
Rather than showing off her coquettishness, Kou Kou was confident that a cold and wooden beauty like Mona would not be able to fuck her.
It's just that Gu Weijing will probably be unhappy.
Kou Kou also felt that this was like a betrayal of her own memories.
The most that Kou Kou can do is to turn herself into a radiant heartthrob like before, the lover of every boy in her grade, and even the girls will be jealous of her.
If Gu Weijing fell in love with her one day, and she hadn't found the other half in her heart that could replace him at that time, they would be able to get together naturally.
If Gu Weijing and the president of the Women's Student Union had just gone on like this, they would have achieved positive results.
Kou Kou is also willing to wish the couple a happy marriage for a long time with a slightly sour aunt's smile.
certainly,
Her kindness was all for Gu Weijing.
I have never liked a green tea bitch like Mona.
So she targets each other everywhere and has trouble with Mona.
During the rehearsal of the drama, she was asked to play the role of an old witch, and she was also required to wear an ugly and funny wig in the name of the drama teacher.
Give the other party a pair of red dancing shoes with cracks on the heels, secretly hoping that she will twist her foot in public.
When it comes to birthday cards, send one less.
…
"I did all those things on purpose. But I won't apologize for it. I don't think I did anything wrong at all. Because it was you who called me an ugly goldfish when we first met."
There was no regret in Kou Kou's tone.
It fell on Mona's ears, and it sounded more like a provocation.
"This bitch is not satisfied with stealing my boyfriend! She wants to show off here and say that all the things she did to wear small shoes for herself in the past were intentional!"
Take a look,
This is still human talk!
Miss Sandenou, a girl who pays attention to tolerance and self-cultivation in front of her classmates, her anger gauge is almost filled by Kou Kou's success at this moment.
Went to his.
Mona couldn't bear it anymore.
She pinched the tome of history in her hand until her fingertips turned white.
Today, even if the student union president is wrong, Mona will slap the tome in her hand hard on the face of this bitch Kou Kou.
Miss Sandnu was thinking about how best to throw this copy of "Wolf Hall" over.
But Koko's eyes made her stunned again.
The look in his eyes was a bit hollow, containing a sense of decadence and a bit of confusion.
Mona was a little touched by this look.
The boiling anger in his chest completely dissipated for some reason.
That's not the look a mistress should have when she brings her new boyfriend to show off to her original wife.
Mona could see a sense of sympathy in this look.
Before she realized this thought that surprised her.
Mona never even imagined that one day she would have a certain degree of tacit understanding with Coco.
"I am willing to tell you all these things today because I don't understand, Mona, what is so good about you that makes a man devote himself to you."
"Obviously you just kicked the person away with your front foot, then turned around and said a few nice words and hooked your fingers, and then he ran to your side again."
Liking someone is like a peacock spreading its tail.
You will work hard to make yourself the way the other person likes you.
After Koko felt that Gu Weijing and Mona were separated, she felt secretly happy.
She is a changeable girl.
She can dance seductively on stage wearing a dance skirt that highlights her figure. If Gu Weijing prefers Mona, this serious girl.
She could also try to be Mona's type.
She can also accompany the other person to paint, apply to the same university together, and learn to cook food for the other person.
Kou Kou pinched a red mark on the inside of her fingertips covered by a band-aid.
When she was making puffs following the live broadcast last night, she was accidentally aroused by the heat on the oven tray.
The punctured blisters left small wounds.
She didn't care at the time.
That night I hummed a little tune and happily worked in front of the oven until midnight. I didn't forget to add sugar or milk, and finally made puffs that were moderately sweet and salty, fluffy and soft.
Koko is confident that what she makes will definitely taste no worse than the cupcakes baked by Mona.
Regrettably,
No one has eaten it.
Kou Kou noticed that Gu Wei Jing often read "The Little Prince" on campus some time ago.
She searched for a long time on Amazon but couldn't find which version of "The Little Prince" with this white cover was.
When I had nothing to do, I watched the French version of the 2015 Annie Award-winning cartoon "The Little Prince".
In the animation adapted by the director, the baobab tree secretly has a crush on the little prince. It knew that the little prince liked roses, so he slowly let his branches and leaves grow into the shape of rose petals.
Hope it can replace the shadow of roses in his heart.
Unfortunately, a baobab is a baobab and a rose is a rose.
When the real rose is willing to change its mind, your "baobab tree" is like a weed, being pulled out of his heart immediately.
Kou Kou pinched her fingers with a masochistic tendency.
The burning pain in her fingers could not only fill the hole in her heart, but also make her laugh at herself.
Childhood sweethearts really are childhood sweethearts.
She actually acted so vulnerable in front of Mona.
He had done everything he could, but Gu Weijing was still more willing to choose Sandnu.
"Run back to me, what do you mean? Koko, you are laughing at me."
Mona stared at Coco's face angrily.
The two looked at each other's eyes at the bitch and the slut.
Stared for a few seconds,
Suddenly I felt something was not right.
"The girlfriend Gu Weijing mentioned is not you?"
"Isn't it you?"
Koko and Mona asked almost in unison.
Then they were silent again.
The atmosphere started to become weird and awkward.
Are they being robbed by another little girl?
The two defeated dogs looked at each other.
Kou Kou was shocked.
Mona was in a daze.
Mona recalled the verbal exchange between Miss Sakai and Assistant Komatsu in the afternoon.
At that time, she felt that the wording between them was a bit...well, a bit "weird".
Especially Miss Sakai's words made Mona sound uncomfortable and sour.
When Mona heard the news that shocked her, she couldn't calm down for a while, thinking that she was thinking too much.
Sakai Katsuko and Gu Weijing? How is it possible that such a completely different combination is possible?
At most, Miss Sakai is just like the professor from Central America mentioned in Gu Weijing's words, appreciating the talents of boys.
Talk about friends?
This is not a fairy tale world. In a fairy tale world, the only one who can get together with the princess is the prince. Mona never really thought that the dignified Moriko Sakai would like Gu Weijing.
After hearing Koko's words, Miss Sandnu recalled this possibility in disbelief.
"It's really that little mixed-race painter!"
shameless!
It would be great to be with that little Matsutaro, they are of the same family, and they are not bad in appearance either.
Sakai Katsuko clearly had a sea of pearls for her to pick up as she pleased, but she just fell in love with the shells at her feet.
"Humph, he's just playing around, he won't really like him. Just watch, it won't last long."
Mona kicked the tree trunk next to the bench angrily.
She ignored Kou Kou who still looked puzzled, put the book under her arm, turned around and left.
——
"Mr. Gu, your painting of peonies, in the Eastern Xia terminology - 'flowers blooming for wealth', seems a bit like Castiglione's 'both form and spirit'."
Before Gu Weijing climbed up the small steps in front of the door, he heard loud Chinese with a strong accent and a strange tone coming from the calligraphy and painting shop.
Push open the glass door.
Sure enough, I saw the figure of golden retriever manager Hanks.
This guy had obviously always said before that he had to fly to Abu Dhabi for something, but now he seemed to have turned around and completely forgotten about it. He couldn't leave his calligraphy and painting shop.
Hanks would hang out in their calligraphy and painting shop every few days.
Sometimes I bring some small gifts, sometimes I don't bring any gifts at all. The agent doesn't bother Gu Weijing while he's painting, and just stays there chatting with Mr. Gu.
Not only chatting, but also licking.
This was not the first time for Gu Weijing to hear Hanks praising his grandfather's writing skills before he even entered.
"Oh, so your painting is so good?"
Gu Tongxiang recently discovered some skills in Western heavy color painting under the guidance of his grandson.
But when I heard Hanks flattering me next to me, I still felt a little weird and scratched my head in embarrassment.
Their calligraphy and painting shop was originally dedicated to foreigners' business.
Mr. Gu Tongxiang was not surprised at all when he saw several foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes.
What's strange is that people come to my door every day to lick me with all their heart.
To tell the unflattering truth.
Mr. Gu Tongxiang has lived on the banks of the Yangon River all his life, and has also served foreign customers his whole life.
Customer is God.
Mr. Gu has always been smiling and discreetly chatting with the God of Wealth in developed countries. When has he ever been treated like this?
Things are changing.
Gu Tongxiang was bald, but he actually enjoyed this kind of reverse service.
"great--"
Hanks was just halfway through flattering him when he saw Gu Weijing coming in.
The smile on his face became even brighter, as if he regarded Gu's calligraphy and painting shop as his own home. He ran over and poured Gu Weijing a cup of tea.
"Mr. Xiao Gu. You are back. You went home early today."
Hanks paused for a moment, then said intentionally or unintentionally.
"If I had your level and skills, why would I bother going to school?"
"The headquarters of Ma Shi Gallery is in Regensburg, Germany. We have a very good relationship with the Ministry of Culture and Education of Bavaria. If you don't mind going to university there, I will help you with just one sentence. You can find a quota for recommending tuition-free students."
"There are only more than a hundred days until the Singapore Art Exhibition starts. Why don't you save some more time to study the paintings for the exhibition?"
Hanks believes that at Gu Weijing's level, attending high school in Yangon is a waste of time and life.
Use this time to study the works for the art exhibition... even if it is used to date Ms. Sakai?
It's no better than carrying a schoolbag to school every day.
If Hanks has some choice, if he is not to squeeze the artist's talent, he cannot be simple and crude, but he must pay attention to methods.
The blond agent wanted to turn into a supervisor and lock Gu Weijing in a small dark room every day, whipping him with a whip while he painted.
"You still have to go to school. Even if you don't learn knowledge, you still need to be exposed to society if you engage in art. Painting is not everything in life."
Mr. Gu heard this.
The smile on the old face that was originally blooming like an old chrysanthemum faded a little, and he looked at Gu Weijing and said seriously.
Painters are inherently a profession with a high incidence of mental illness.
So many great painters in history had more or less mental problems.
The most important reason is of course syphilis caused by sleeping with different girls outside every day.
The second reason is that many painters are a bit withdrawn and do not like to interact with society.
Van Gogh locked himself in his small house, Monet locked himself in a Japanese-style manor he built himself, and Gauguin, the protagonist of "The Moon and Sixpence", locked himself in a house in Brittany. On a remote island.
Mental illness often locks oneself out.
Gu Tongxiang looks forward to it during the day and at night. He hopes that his grandson Gu Weijing will succeed every day.
However, he definitely did not want Gu Weijing to become a lunatic with excellent painting skills but a lonely and unloved man.
"Then it's better to go to school. It's better to go to school."
Hanks changed his opinion without any position or integrity.
Ma Shi Gallery will open an exhibition of paintings by Deke Allen in Abu Dhabi next season.
Hanks' schedule used to be to go over there to make soy sauce and make his face familiar.
After thinking about it now, I took the initiative to cancel this itinerary.
Dyke Allen is one of the leading artists of Ma Shi Gallery today. His agent, Ms. Susie, treats him like a little girl and is always on the lookout for any colleague who wants to pry the corner.
The success rate of him running over to hook up is not high.
In addition to attracting people's attention, there is a high probability that he will just be a free part-time laborer.
Not interesting.
It's better to cultivate the relationship with this young man who made Ma Shi III show his unprecedented fancy.
The only focus of his work now is to get closer to Mr. Gu.
Signing a painter with a hunter agent is never a one-and-done deal. Maintaining relationships on a daily basis is also Hanks' job.
The reason why he didn't mainly get closer to Gu Weijing was because Gu Weijing was too young.
At this age, Hanks feels like he has no idea where to start.
Myanmar is not a trendy world.
He wanted to give away concert tickets and box packages to sports events, which are common ways of building relationships between the world's major gallery dealers and their artists.
Unfortunately, there have been few large-scale gatherings in Yangon in recent days.
Give me a movie ticket, which is a little hard to come by.
Similar to going to a bar to drink together, picking up girls, and sleeping with girls are common communication methods in adult society.
It is often very useful for young boys and has miraculous effects.
Please,
To do this kind of thing in front of Mrs. Sakai, how low of emotional intelligence does Hanks have to have to be looking for death like this.
After much thought, Hanks decided to please Mr. Gu.
