Chapter 124 Three Days Until Their Meeting
The photos found are quite beautiful, and there are also related resort hotels and B&Bs.
"How about this?" Meng Tang said, "I don't know how to choose."
Xie Lingyin said, "Okay, I'll tell Xu Heqing now and let him make the arrangements."
Meng Tang also sent a message to Wei Chuan: [Have you arrived? ]
Wei Chuan: [I'm eating. I just arrived.]
Meng Tang: [Have you been to Luozhou Island? Yang Ke said it's a quiet place, but the scenery is pretty nice.]
Wei Chuan: [I haven’t been there. Have you already chosen a place?]
Meng Tang: [I chose it. Relatively speaking, there should be fewer people here. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to go anywhere during May Day.]
Wei Chuan: [Just make your choice and let Xu Heqing make the arrangements.]
Meng Tang: [Got it. I'm going to take a shower. Good night to you in advance. I won't say anything tonight.]
Wei Chuan: [Okay, but can I make another unreasonable request?]
Meng Tang glared. What an excessive request?
Why bring it up when you know it’s excessive?
After a while, the person on the other end sent her a dejected puppy emoji and said, "Forget it."
Meng Tang couldn't bear it and asked: [What's your request?]
Wei Chuan immediately revived: [Can you take a photo of me, from the front?]
Meng Tang was stunned: [My photo?]
Wei Chuan: [Yes, to be honest, I miss you a little, but I can't see you, and we can't video chat. I don't have a single photo of your face on my phone.]
Ever since learning about Meng Tang's feelings, Wei Chuan has become bolder.
The straightforwardness of the text caught Meng Tang's eye. He was stunned for a moment, then raised his phone.
She didn't have any selfies on her phone, so she had to take one for him.
Xie Lingyin saw this and turned on the desk lamp for her, saying, "It looks better this way."
Meng Tang pursed his lips and turned to look at Xie Lingyin, obviously embarrassed.
"You can take pictures all you want, I won't watch." Xie Lingyin suppressed her laughter and returned to her seat.
But Shi Lan asked again: "What are you shooting?"
Xie Lingyin pointed at Meng Tang and said, "Taking a selfie."
"Is it sent to Wei Chuan?" Yang Ke was surprised again.
Xie Lingyin nodded.
Meng Tang kept looking for angles and took picture after picture, but he was never satisfied.
She felt very awkward.
Finally, he was at his wit's end and said to Xie Lingyin, "Lingyin, how about you take a picture for me?"
Xie Lingyin suppressed her laughter and took the phone from her hand: "Just spoil him."
Meng Tang coughed uncomfortably: "It's just a photo."
Xie Lingyin turned on the camera and said, "Move your head slightly to the right and lift your chin slightly."
Meng Tang did as he was told.
Xie Lingyin said, "Do you want to smile? You look a little tense."
Meng Tang gave a faint smile.
"alright."
After snapping the photo, Xie Lingyin handed the phone to Meng Tang: "Take a look and see if you like it."
Meng Tang took a look and said, "It's pretty good."
Xie Lingyin: "Why don't you send it over right away?"
To be honest, Wei Chuan had lost hope because Meng Tang hadn't replied to him for five minutes.
Until the phone vibrated and a freshly taken photo appeared in front of my eyes.
Tian Yu approached with a smug look on his face: "Brother Chuan, what are you laughing at? You're so worthless."
Wei Chuan didn't even turn his head, but blocked Tian Yu's chest with his backhand: "Get lost."
After posting the photos, Meng Tang felt an inexplicable sense of shame.
Then, her phone rang. She lowered her eyes and saw only four words: [Super beautiful.]
Wei Chuan is a ball of fire. The way he looks at people, the way he hugs people, the words of praise he gives... are all straightforward.
Meng Tang sat at the table for a long time, letting his heart, which had been beating non-stop because of him, gradually calm down.
On the third day after Wei Chuan left, Meng Tang went to the museum.
The wood found during the Grain Rain season has been processed and placed on acid-free cotton cloth.
When shone with cold light, the wood grain revealed fine lines, like the blood vessels in the human body.
Meng Tang took out a sharpening knife from the toolbox, tapped the broken section of the Guanyin statue's left arm, and said:
"People nowadays use epoxy resin, which will suffocate the wood. The craftsmanship handed down from the mid-Qing Dynasty is to wrap the wood base with linen cloth and then apply lacquer."
“When shaping the tire, repeatedly knead and press the cross section until the new ash dissolves into the old ash and until it is completely interlocked.”
"Once the path ahead is smooth, the subsequent carving and soul-receiving can be infinitely close to the original."
Li Hanjin looked at Meng Tang, his eyes filled with fire.
He knew since he was a child that Meng Tang was gifted, but there were only a few people in the world who could master the old man's craft so well at such a young age.
Not to mention she's a girl.
Meng Tang straightened up and met Li Hanjin's gaze.
Li Hanjin's expression was full of admiration. Meng Tang turned his head away and continued with the work at hand.
After a busy day, Meng Tang planned to go back to school to have a bite to eat.
Before reaching the subway entrance, Li Hanjin caught up with him in his car.
He rolled down the car window and said to Meng Tang, "Get in. I'll take you home."
Meng Tang glanced at him and said, "I'll take the subway."
Li Hanjin frowned: "Do you really dislike me so much?"
"If it weren't for the Guanyin statue, we might not have met each other." Meng Tang looked at him calmly, "Li Hanjin, do you like me?"
Li Hanjin's gaze was dim and unclear in the carriage. He didn't expect Meng Tang to go so far.
Seeing him unbuckle his seatbelt, Meng Tang stopped him and said, "You don't have to get out of the car. I know everything. I just want to tell you that when you were at my house, I treated you as my senior brother and rival, but now you're nothing. Besides, Wei Chuan doesn't like you pestering me all the time."
Li Hanjin sat stiffly in the car, watching Meng Tang enter the subway entrance.
Meng Tang entered the subway station and sent a message to Wei Chuan: [I'm at the subway station, on my way back to school.]
Wei Chuan didn't see it until noon the next day.
He originally just wanted a "good night", but Meng Tang would chat with him when he was free.
No one understood how he felt when he got his phone and saw a string of messages.
Those who trained with him all teased him about whether he was too excited.
Oh, what a pity, it’s only been ten minutes and I have to hand in my phone again.
Meng Tang returned to the dormitory and Xie Lingyin sent her a picture.
"What did you send me?" She took off her bag and hung it on the cabinet.
"A two-day trip." Xie Lingyin said.
Meng Tang pulled out a chair and sat down. He took a look and said, "Do we need to go to the pier to take a boat here?"
Xie Lingyin said, "Yes, first take the high-speed train and then transfer, it will take about four or five hours."
Meng Tang looked down at the picture. Xu Heqing had arranged a fishing house, and the sea view room was the most expensive.
But looking at the schedule, it should be quite fun.
The first day was a sunset on the beach with a barbecue, and the second day was a sunrise and a bike ride around the island.
Meng Tang glanced at Xie Lingyin and said, "Xu Heqing's spreadsheet is really detailed. The daily schedule is marked with the time, and even the three meals a day are listed, including what to eat and where to eat."
"He's a man with a plan," Xie Lingyin said. "When things are out of his control, he feels uncomfortable."
"Oh, oh, oh, you're so controlling." Shi Lan teased, "Does our school hunk usually hold your neck when we kiss, preventing you from escaping?"
Xie Lingyin blushed at the teasing: "Get lost!"
Meng Tang quickly lowered her head, fearing that Shi Lan would tease her again.
But her mind was full of Wei Chuan kissing her, so he didn't hold her neck to stop her from leaving, but he was a little reckless.
Meng Tang slapped his forehead and quickly went to take a shower.
The next day, Xu Heqing created a group and there was one more person in it, Li Zhuo's girlfriend.
Xu Heqing asked for everyone's information and bought round-trip tickets.
Meng Tang lived his life according to the routine, but suddenly found that on the seventh day, time seemed to have stopped.
She had the illusion that she hadn't seen Wei Chuan for a long time.
In fact, only a week had passed, and there were still three days until they met.
