Chapter 28 Investigation Results
The first two classes in the morning are "History and Theory of Sculpture"
As soon as Meng Tang entered the classroom, a classmate came to ask about the survey results. She replied and found a seat, but Tan Xi sat down next to her.
Meng Tang tilted his head, his eyes blank: "You sit here?"
Tan Xi glanced over and said, "What? Can't you sit?"
Meng Tang: “…Yes.”
Tan Xi crossed his arms across his chest, his expression and posture still arrogant: "I know you doubt me, and they all say that I sabotaged it, but I didn't do it, so there's no need for you to nag me behind their backs."
"So..." Meng Tang looked at her directly, "If I want to learn from you and want to play with crickets, I have to do it in person?"
Tan Xi choked.
Meng Tang's lips curled up slightly: "I don't doubt you, let's wait for the results."
Tan Xi obviously didn't believe it, and Meng Tang had no obligation to explain.
The teacher walked up to the podium and called the roll. Tan Xi tore off a piece of paper, wrote "You really can repair it" and pushed it over.
Meng Tang wrote: Yes.
Tan Xi: Does your grandfather still accept disciples?
Meng Tang paused with his pen, then suddenly smiled, quickly wrote a few words and pushed it past.
Tan Xi looked at the last line of words "Grandpa won't accept it, I will" and gave Meng Tang a blank look.
He even had the mind to tease her.
Meng Tang curled her lips after successfully getting Tan Xi to stop harassing her.
After four classes, she sent a message to Wei Chuan, confirming that he would pick up the clothes in the afternoon. She went back to the dormitory, packed the clothes in a bag, and took them to the wood carving studio.
Individual lockers are available in non-working areas of the studio.
Meng Tang put the clothes and bags in, and focused on the small wooden carvings for Wei Chuan.
The small piece has reached the blanking stage. It is visible from a distance but invisible when viewed up close.
Meng Tang had been delayed for a long time due to his hand injury before, so today he has to locate the facial features of the wood carving figure.
Wei Chuan's face is really eye-catching, with clear and clean lines of facial features and almost perfect proportions of three parts and five eyes.
Determining the center line and dividing it into three parts, Meng Tang's movements were precise and steady, and his breathing became much lighter.
The ornament is not big, only 25 cm high, and its face is as big as the palm of a person's hand, so it requires great patience to carve it carefully.
The "squeaking" sound between the carving knife and the wood was a gentle melody. Meng Tang kept the studio quiet and looked down at Xiang Wan.
The ringing of her cell phone reminded her that it was time for dinner. Meng Tang sat there, moving her neck and shaking her arms, muttering, "Why hasn't Wei Chuan come yet?"
The phone rang, Meng Tang picked it up and heard Wei Chuan say: "Are you still in the studio? I've finished training."
Meng Tang replied: "Still there, where should I wait for you?"
Wei Chuan said, "Just downstairs."
"Okay." After responding, Meng Tang put up the "Do Not Touch" warning sign, stood up and walked out.
As she reached the door, she paused, then returned and took pictures of the unfinished wood carving from several angles.
Meng Tang stood downstairs playing with his cell phone, looking up from time to time.
About ten minutes later, she heard footsteps. She looked up and saw Wei Chuan running towards her.
The weather was gloomy today and it was almost evening, so he was only wearing a short-sleeved shirt.
When he came up to her, Meng Tang subconsciously asked, "Aren't you cold?"
Wei Chuan took down the basketball bag and handed it over: "Help me hold it."
Meng Tang understood and gave him the clothes in his hand.
Wei Chuan put on the volcanic ash jacket neatly. It was the right size and looked very handsome.
The boys in the sports school are all clothes hangers, but Wei Chuan has outstanding looks, which makes his clothes look several levels higher.
"Thank you." Wei Chuan took the bag from Meng Tang. "You won't be cold now. Where are you going next?"
"canteen."
"Then I'll go first. My third sister will be back today."
"Wait a minute." Meng Tang stopped him. "I was carving your ornaments this afternoon. I took some pictures when I came down. Can I send them to you?"
"good."
After sending the photos, Meng Tang went to the cafeteria alone. Coincidentally, he ran into Xie Lingyin and Xu Heqing at the door.
Meng Tang glanced over and saw Xu Heqing frowning, looking unhappy.
"Why are you here in the North Canteen?" Meng Tang asked Xie Lingyin in a low voice.
Before she could answer, the phone rang again.
Seeing the incoming call, Meng Tang's smile faded. After picking up the phone, he turned and went to the administrative building.
Xie Lingyin noticed something, pulled Xu Heqing and followed.
"Meng Tang, are the results of the investigation out?" Xie Lingyin saw her hang up the phone and hurriedly chased after her to ask.
"Well, the dean asked me to go to the administration building."
"Come on, I'll go with you."
Meng Tang said "hmm" and noticed Xu Heqing following her out of the corner of her eye. She pursed her lips and said nothing.
After entering the building, Meng Tang pressed the up elevator button and the three of them got in. The moment the elevator door closed, a familiar voice suddenly broke in: "Wait a moment."
Meng Tang subconsciously opened the door, and it turned out to be Tan Xi.
"You..." Meng Tang paused, "What's the matter with you coming here?"
Tan Xi exhaled, her usual arrogance gone. She spoke with difficulty, "I'm sorry, your statue of 'Blind Monk Listening to the Piano' was destroyed by Zhang Yifan."
Meng Tang asked slowly, "Who is Zhang Yifan?"
"My ex-boyfriend." Tan Xi said awkwardly, "I complained to him about the competition, but I didn't expect him to be so extreme."
Xu Heqing suddenly asked, "From the Sports Institute?"
Xie Lingyin turned around and asked him, "Do you know him?"
Xu Heqing said: "Physical education."
Tan Xi nodded: "It's him."
Xie Lingyin turned to Tan Xi and said in a stern tone, "You're still in contact after we broke up? You're still complaining to him about the competition?"
Tan Xi frowned. "He wanted to get back together, so he kept coming to me. I mentioned the competition to him, but it wasn't me who asked him to do it."
Xie Lingyin sneered: "Even if it wasn't you who did it, it has something to do with you."
Tan Xi was speechless. Xie Lingyin was not wrong.
After going up to the fourth floor, Meng Tang turned into the office at the end of the corridor. Chen Xunli and several relevant leaders and teachers were already waiting there.
Meng Tang turned his gaze slightly and saw the "murderer".
He looks good, but his eyes are fierce.
Just as she was about to speak, the hot-tempered Tan Xi stepped forward and slapped her: "Are you fucking sick? I complained to you about the competition, but was it necessary for you to use such despicable means? Do I need you to do this?"
This slap scared everyone. The teacher who was nearby immediately stood up and scolded them, asking them to sit down.
Zhang Yifan excitedly said to Tan Xi: "Isn't it for you that I do all this?"
Tan Xi glared: "No need! I would rather lose openly."
"Then don't tell me." Zhang Yifan took a step forward excitedly, and Meng Tang subconsciously pulled her.
Tan Xi was also frightened by his glaring eyes and stepped back.
As a boy, Xu Heqing naturally stepped forward to stand in front of the three girls. Most importantly, he was afraid that Xie Lingyin would be accidentally injured.
Chen Xunli stood up and scolded: "Sit down, Zhang Yifan. If you don't know what's good for you, your punishment will only become more severe."
Zhang Yifan turned a deaf ear, all his rationality gone after being slapped by Tan Xi.
Seeing that he looked uneasy, Xu Heqing increased the strength in his hands and pushed him against the wall: "Calm down."
Zhang Yifan sneered, suddenly clamped Xu Heqing's wrist and squeezed it, forcing Xu Heqing to let go. He took the opportunity to take out a carving knife from his trouser pocket.
Meng Tang recognized it as a 25mm large flat-blade carving knife, and his heart was in his throat.
She carefully pulled Xie Lingyin over, trying to attract Zhang Yifan's attention:
"Don't be impulsive. Just put the knife down and don't hurt anyone. I won't hold you responsible for anything."
"You can fool the devil. Even if you don't pursue me, the school won't keep me."
Xu Heqing knew that the longer he delayed, the worse it would be, so he pounced on him while he was talking to Meng Tang.
"Xu Heqing." Xie Lingyin was frightened out of her wits.
Zhang Yifan is from the Sports College and is very strong. Xu Heqing, who is from the Sports College, is no match for him.
Xu Heqing groaned, and a long bloody cut was left on his arm, which was connected to his coat.
