Chapter 49 So Easy to Coax
Wei Chuan pulled Meng Tang out of the supermarket and walked north for a while. Then he suddenly stopped and stared at her.
Meng Tang turned his head away: "What are you looking at?"
Wanting to apologize, yet feeling a little shy, Wei Chuan muttered quietly, "I thought you wouldn't talk to me anymore."
Meng Tang lowered his eyes, opened his phone, and sent the money he had just used to buy things.
"12 yuan is worth it to me." Wei Chuan glanced at the beer in her hand, "Why did you buy this?"
"drink."
Wei Chuan: “…”
He asked unnecessary questions.
"Ahem..." Wei Chuan cleared his throat, "Are you still angry?"
Meng Tang didn't answer. He turned around and saw a chair under the shade of trees in the north and walked over.
In summer, the lush trees here provide shade, and many students like to come here to enjoy the cool air, but it is obviously unpopular in winter.
Meng Tang unpacked the potato chips, pinched a piece and put it in his mouth, biting it with a crunching sound.
Still ignoring him, Wei Chuan sat down resignedly, no longer embarrassed, and said bluntly:
"I came to apologize. I'm sorry."
Meng Tang handed over the potato chips, and Wei Chuan was stunned. Is he so easy to coax?
He looked at Meng Tang suspiciously and asked tentatively, "Can I eat it?"
Meng Tang nodded.
Wei Chuan was still unsure: "If I eat it, will we be reconciled?"
Meng Tang: "...Did I break up with you?"
Yesterday we just chatted.
"No," Wei Chuan said with a playful smile as he pinched a piece of beer. "Do you want to open the beer? I'll help you."
Meng Tang handed over the beer: "I don't want to drink it, you can do whatever you want."
Wei Chuan was not allowed to drink during training, so he took the wine and asked, "Are you in a bad mood? Why did you buy some wine?"
Having someone to chat with can help relieve your depressed mood.
Meng Tang glanced at Wei Chuan nonchalantly, his tone as calm as a pool of stagnant water:
"I met with Li Hanjin and felt a little disappointed."
"Why again—" Wei Chuan suddenly stopped talking and gave Meng Tang a cute smile, "If you don't mind, just tell me, what did he do to you?"
Although he said this, he really disliked Li Hanjin in his heart.
Meng Tang mentioned the things happening in the restoration laboratory to Wei Chuan, who was the only one who had experienced Meng Tang's wood carving skills up close.
Li Hanjin's ability made Meng Tang want to get drunk to forget her sorrow, which showed that her talent was indeed as high as she said.
So Meng Tang was upset that he didn't beat Li Hanjin?
Wei Chuan made a wave with his hand and said, "Look, there are countless peaks here, they are staggered and arranged in an orderly manner, with the distant ones appearing imaginary and the near ones appearing real. He is standing on the peak in front of you, and you are standing on the peak behind you. In fact, they are the same height. You insist on saying that you are shorter than him. If he tells you your restoration method, does that mean his skills are better than yours? Not necessarily, right?"
Meng Tang looked at Wei Chuan in silence. When he finished speaking, he suddenly asked, "Do you think he has become a disciple again in the past four years?"
Wei Chuan laughed: "I really can't believe you are so competitive?"
Meng Tang finished his last potato chip and said quietly, "My grandfather said that if you are a craftsman, you either don't do it or you must reach the top of the industry."
Others said it because of their mothers, but she said it because of her grandfather.
The old man was urging her to get married and have children right after graduation. Wei Chuan turned around and asked, "What if you can't do it?"
Meng Tang said: "Grandpa said that if you can't do it, it means your skills are not good enough."
Talented people are always a bit arrogant. It cannot be said that this is fully reflected in Meng Tang, but she also has it.
If she didn't have the talent, I'm afraid the old man wouldn't have let her hold a knife in the first place.
After finishing a bag of potato chips, Meng Tang took out a small thermos from his bag.
Wei Chuan took a glance and saw that it was bought in the shopping mall opposite the museum.
The warm water moistened his throat. Meng Tang had rested enough and said to Wei Chuan, "It's a bit cold here. Let's go."
Wei Chuan stood up and said, "You haven't even had dinner, how can you withstand the cold?"
"I'll go to the cafeteria." Meng Tang said as he took out his phone, "Ask Lingyin and the others what they want to eat."
Several people were in the dormitory. When they heard that Meng Tang was going to bring them food, they were so grateful that they couldn't express it in words.
Meng Tang wrote them down one by one and said, "I'll bring them back to you after I finish eating."
"That's perfect for one." Wei Chuan suggested, following silently, "I haven't eaten yet either."
Meng Tang remembered that he suddenly appeared and took her away, and wondered: "Did you go to the supermarket to buy something?"
"I was just passing by."
In fact, I saw her from a distance and she seemed to have lost her soul, and followed me all the way like a thief.
Meng Tang: "...You were just passing by, why did you drag me out here?"
Wei Chuan said confidently: "I wanted to apologize to you in the first place, why don't you hurry up and pay you to win your favor."
"..." Meng Tang looked up at the man next to him who was stupid and rich, "If you have a conflict with your friend, will you buy something for him?"
It doesn't seem like it. Before, when Xie Lingyin was drunk, he was very straightforward with Xu Heqing and pushed him right away.
"I rarely have conflicts with my friends," Wei Chuan said, looking back. "We talk straight and don't take things to heart."
"I didn't take it to heart," Meng Tang said. "It's just that Li Hanjin was just like you before, making random guesses to test our relationship."
Wei Chuan was stunned and stopped at the side door of the cafeteria: "So how did you answer?"
"Friends." Meng Tang looked puzzled. "What else?"
"...Oh, yes, yes." Wei Chuan smiled awkwardly.
Meng Tang entered the cafeteria, and Wei Chuan followed her closely and bought the same meal as her.
As soon as Meng Tang sat down on the dining chair, his cell phone rang.
She saw the incoming call and frowned slightly.
Wei Chuan saw the name "Li Hanjin" across the street and thought: This guy is so damn haunting.
He wouldn't like Meng Tang, would he?
Senior and junior brothers and sisters, childhood sweethearts... the more I think about it, the more possible it seems.
Wei Chuan poked the rice noodles and asked, "How much older is Li Hanjin than you?"
"Seven years old." Meng Tang said, "I came to my house to become a disciple when I was seven years old."
Isn't that just eating from the same pot and living under the same roof?
Wei Chuan stared at the caller ID, his tone unconsciously sour: "Don't answer it?"
Meng Tang finally came to his senses and answered the phone, and whispered to Wei Chuan: "Thank you for the reminder."
Wei Chuan: “…”
Myocardial infarction.
"Junior sister, I have good news for you."
Meng Tang seemed uninterested: "What good news?"
"Master Su Mian Su has come to City Z. I have some acquaintance with her. She is staying at the Wanhe Hotel and is holding a small exchange meeting the day after tomorrow. Do you want to come?"
"Su Mian?" Meng Tang was stunned. "She hasn't made a public appearance in a long time. Why would she come to City Z?"
Li Hanjin said, "She hasn't taken on many jobs in recent years. She wants to use her years of experience to publish a book, and she's passing through City Z to collect materials."
Meng Tang thought for a moment and asked, "When?"
Li Hanjin replied, "The day after tomorrow at 7:30 pm. Master Su has to go out to collect folk songs during the day."
"Let me think about it."
At night, you must stay in a hotel.
"Meng Tang." Li Hanjin suddenly called her seriously, "I suggest you come over. Master once praised Master Su for his "Three Swords to Peak" technique. I think there's something worth learning from this exchange."
"knew."
Li Hanjin heard the hesitation in her words, but stopped urging her and said in a light-hearted and joking tone:
"I have another good news for you. After a few years away, I plan to move my studio to the Art Park in City Z."
Meng Tang was surprised and asked, "You want to move your studio to City Z?"
Wei Chuan raised his eyes suddenly. What did that mean? Li Hanjin wasn't leaving?
