Chapter 136 I Miss You

Meng Tang walked over and called out, "Wei Chuan."

Wei Chuan turned around and saw his girlfriend, who was covered in dust.

He laughed out loud: "Why did you come here like this?"

Meng Tang said: "I'm in class, and I haven't even washed the mud off my hands yet."

Just as Wei Chuan was about to hold her hand, a teacher came out of the room and asked them to go into the office to talk.

Meng Tang and Wei Chuan sat together, and next to Wei Chuan was Coach He.

The blinds were half-closed, letting in the sunlight, making the room a little dark.

Coach He, always impatient, banged on the table. "This matter is obvious. Someone hit my players. Let's see how the school handles it. There's no need to waste words. We in Weichuan still have to train. Time waits for no one."

Wei Chuan sat there with his arm resting on the back of the chair behind Meng Tang.

Coach He kicked him from below, signaling him to be serious.

Wei Chuan sat up straight, but did not take his hands away.

Li Hanjin came to the Academy of Fine Arts as a consultant, which was directly related to Chen Xunli.

So he had to be present to deal with this matter.

He was in a dilemma because it was a fact that Li Hanjin beat Wei Chuan and the video was all over the place.

In the end, the counselor informed the students in the group not to spread the information.

But Wei Chuan refused to give up, feeling absurd that he would not compete unless Li Hanjin was fired.

Chen Xunli asked Meng Tang: "You were there at the time, what did you say?"

Meng Tang: "...What can I say? Didn't they fight in the video?"

Even if she knew that Wei Chuan did it on purpose, she couldn't say it out loud.

Wei Chuan raised his eyebrows at Li Hanjin.

Chen Xunli then asked Coach He, "What do you want to do at the Sports Institute?"

Coach He said with a forced smile: "He is a consultant and also a teacher at the school. Wei Chuan is a student. What do you think we should do about this? We don't need compensation or an apology."

His attitude was very tough, and Chen Xunli looked at Li Hanjin embarrassedly.

Li Hanjin's eyes were cold as he said, "Wei Chuan deliberately provoked me to do it."

Wei Chuan narrowed his eyes: "Why would I tempt you to do it?"

Li Hanjin was suddenly speechless.

Could he say it was because he liked Meng Tang? No, the school leaders and Meng Tang's counselor were sitting here.

If he likes Meng Tang, he will be suspected of being a teacher seducing a student.

Even though Chen Xunli knew about his relationship with Meng Tang, somehow, in the eyes of others, Meng Tang and he were from two different generations.

Coach He saw that he was guilty, so he said impatiently:

"Isn't this just a tacit agreement? What else is there to say?"

Chen Xunli sighed, "Okay, I'll give you an explanation. The final outcome won't be made public. Let's go now. Hanjin, you stay."

The others left the meeting room.

Coach He patted Wei Chuan on the back of his head and said, "You are so useless! Your eyes are almost growing on me."

"Fuck, Lao He." Wei Chuan frowned and cried out in pain, "Can you be a little gentler? Besides, she's my girlfriend, can't I just look at her?"

"You useless person, get out of here."

"Okay." Wei Chuan took advantage of the situation and acted ungratefully.

After exiting the elevator, he pulled Meng Tang aside. Seeing that he didn't follow the coach, Meng Tang asked curiously:

"Aren't you going to training?"

"Go." Wei Chuan said, "I just got a few minutes with Lao He. I'll be there right away."

Meng Tang stopped and said, "Do you have something to tell me?"

Wei Chuan only had five minutes, so he nodded and said, "I won't have much time to contact you for the next half month. You might be asleep by the time I get off training."

"It doesn't matter." Meng Tang said, "The competition is important, I won't say anything."

Wei Chuan: "But we just talked, I'm afraid you'll feel disappointed."

Meng Tang shook his head: "It's okay."

Wei Chuan felt relieved a little: "Then it's settled. I'll text you when I have time. If you fall asleep, reply the next day."

When Tian Yu and his girlfriend were dating, his girlfriend would always complain that he didn't have time to accompany them.

This was also the reason for their breakup. Wei Chuan had finally caught up with the girl and was afraid that Meng Tang would end up like this.

So I begged and pleaded for five minutes to make my statement.

"Okay, I understand." Meng Tang took his arm and smiled at him, "Just focus on training, okay?"

"Okay." Wei Chuan grabbed her hand and pecked it, very naturally, "Let's go."

"Um."

After that, just as Wei Chuan said, the two could only communicate through text messages.

We are from the same school, but there is always a time difference in text messages.

Wei Chuan got up at six in the morning and waited for Meng Tang to get up for class. He was also in class.

Old He shortened the time for Wei Chuan and the others to eat.

For a whole week, the two people who just started dating didn't see each other.

On Saturday, Meng Tang got up early and went to the museum.

At around eight o'clock, Li Hanjin and others arrived, showed their credentials, and Meng Tang followed them into the restoration room.

She put on a magnifying glass and gently used a fine brush dipped in a special reinforcing agent to apply to the cracks in the folds of the Guanyin statue's clothes.

Li Hanjin greeted her naturally: "Why are you here so early today?"

He has resigned from the school on his own initiative.

It seems that Chen Xunli said something.

Meng Tang stood up and said, "I hope it will end soon. I have other things to do."

Li Hanjin put on gloves and asked, "How long do you think it will take to be completed?"

The others also looked up at Meng Tang, who said, "Based on the progress, it will probably take another five or six weeks."

"It will take about three days to reinforce all the small cracks."

"What takes time is the missing parts of the Guanyin statue's right fingertips and the edge of the lotus seat, which need to be replaced. But now that I have the material, I estimate it will be completed in two weeks."

"After that, the overall color coordination and aging process took another week, and the final sealing treatment took only three days."

Including other minor tasks, the project can be completed by the end of June.

However, each completed stage requires detailed records and evaluation to prevent rework.

Rework is the most frustrating thing.

Li Hanjin nodded: "Has the concentration of the reinforcement been adjusted?"

Meng Tang said: "It has been adjusted and has penetrated."

Li Hanjin stood still, his eyes unable to hide his admiration.

Meng Tang was not a fool, he could sense his gaze, looked back and said:

"Regarding the missing piece of the lotus pedestal, we've discussed it before. The original piece might have been grafted. Should we restore it?"

Li Hanjin said, "Let's talk about it after we finish looking up the information."

Meng Tang said: "I have checked it and sent it to your email. Take a look."

"good."

After a busy day, Meng Tang returned to the dormitory tired.

After taking a shower, she lay on the bed and looked at her phone, but there was no message from Wei Chuan.

Xie Lingyin knocked on her bed: "Meng Tang, what's wrong with you?"

Meng Tang opened the curtain and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xie Lingyin looked at her and asked, "Are you in a bad mood? I saw you took a shower and went to bed as soon as you came back."

Meng Tang: "I'm not in a bad mood, just a little tired."

"I thought you were sad because Wei Chuan was busy." Xie Lingyin laughed, "That's why I rushed over to comfort you."

Meng Tang was also at a loss for words: "Really not."

Actually, I'm just a little disappointed.

Xie Lingyin said, "Your birthday is in a week. He won't show up, will he?"

Meng Tang paused: "I don't know, but the competition is coming soon, it's just a birthday."

Xie Lingyin said, "I understand, but it's our first birthday together after all. It would be a shame if we couldn't be together."

Meng Tang smiled and said, "I'll stay with you guys."

"Okay." Xie Lingyin patted her. "I'll pass it to you then. It's getting late, you should go to bed."

Meng Tang lowered the bed curtains and suppressed his smile.

It’s only ten o’clock and Wei Chuan hasn’t finished training yet.

If you want to talk to him, you have to wait until at least eleven o'clock, and he can't talk for too long.

The team has a strict schedule.

Meng Tang planned to send him a message first and save them together for him to see.

Wei Chuan left the training ground at half past ten and saw Meng Tang's message on his way back to the dormitory.

He laughed foolishly several times like the silly son of a landlord.

I also read the chat history several times.

Training finished quite early today, so he tentatively sent a message back: [See, did you sleep?]

Meng Tang: [No, why are you here so early tonight?]

Wei Chuan immediately called and Meng Tang answered the phone almost instantly.

Wei Chuan chuckled: "You answered so quickly, did you miss me?"

His voice came through the phone, vibrating Meng Tang's eardrums.

When he said this, he was obviously proud and expectant, and the ending tone rose unconsciously, as if he was about to laugh in the next second.

It reminded Meng Tang of bubbling soda.

"Who missed you? I was about to go to bed and I just happened to receive your call. I guessed you didn't have much time, so I answered it."

The serious explanation made Wei Chuan's mood take a sharp turn for the worse.

He snorted, "Can't you coax me?"

Meng Tang laughed and said, "You're already an adult, and you still need to be coaxed?"

"I need you, I need you." Wei Chuan said to her, "I haven't seen you for so many days. I miss you so much."

The tone was really pitiful. Meng Tang stopped teasing him and whispered, "I miss you too."

Wei Chuan laughed: "I knew it."

The time was not enough, and the two only chatted for five minutes.

Meng Tang’s birthday was on Monday, and everyone had to go to class, so there was no time to celebrate.

Especially Meng Tang himself, he has classes all day long.

Xie Lingyin and the others could only celebrate their birthdays in the dormitory.

After class, Meng Tang hurried back to the dormitory.

As soon as I opened the door, I was hit by the exploding fireworks.

She smiled and took off the ribbon on her head and said, "Aren't you guys being too formal?"

Xie Lingyin said, "It's already very simple."

Meng Tang put down his bag, glanced at the table covered with food, and laughed: "Did you buy so much food?"

Xie Lingyin said, "Wei Chuan asked Xu Heqing to send the cake, along with the gifts."

Meng Tang had already seen the gift boxes piled up on his desk, four in total, one for his roommate and the other for Wei Chuan.

Shi Lan said, "Let's eat first. After dinner, we can slowly unpack and see what we have given away."

Meng Tang took his own folding stool and said, "Okay, let's eat first."

She glanced at the table and wondered: What gift has Wei Chuan prepared?

After all, there has been no news from him in the past few days.

She even doubted whether he still remembered.
