Chapter 79 Wait for Me
After returning to the dormitory, Meng Tang drank half a cup of warm water before he felt his throat felt a little better.
Xie Lingyin came out of the bathroom carrying a basin. Seeing Meng Tang using his computer, she asked casually, "Aren't you going to wash up?"
"I might be a little late tonight." Meng Tang turned his head, "I need to check something."
"Then don't be too late."
"Um."
Meng Tang opened the PPT and planned to make a report on the failure of wood carving restoration over the years.
Her computer contains records of errors in cultural relics restoration that she has compiled herself, which she also searched for through relevant documents, images, news, etc. For each item, she marked the specific time and technical damage.
Every time he saw it, Meng Tang felt uncomfortable.
For example, from the late 19th century to the early 20th century, the misuse of mechanical tools caused the gold foil layer of the "Northern Wei Gilded Wooden Buddha" in the British Museum in 1903 to peel off due to high-temperature steam, and the pressure of the clamps also broke the fibers of the Buddha's left arm.
Of course, there are also such mistakes in China, and there are quite a few of them.
The old man often curses those crappy experts at home.
Meng Tang sighed and planned to find Xun Li'an tomorrow.
After twelve o'clock, Meng Tang turned off the computer.
Just as she was about to wash up, Shi Lan stuck her head out from behind the bed curtains, scaring her and making her shiver.
Shi Lan laughed and said, "Want to go wash up?"
Meng Tang nodded.
"Well, I have something to tell you."
It was rare to see Shi Lan looking like she had done something wrong, so Meng Tang was curious: "What happened?"
"It's about you and Wei Chuan. I couldn't help but talk about it online." Shi Lan pointed at her phone. "Why don't you take a look for yourself? I even gained you some followers."
Meng Tang was stunned. Shi Lan laughed dryly and made a begging gesture to her: "I know you are low-key, but someone said something bad about you, and I couldn't help but confront him."
"I'll take a look later." Meng Tang said, "It's okay, you go to sleep first."
Shi Lan admired her calm and composed demeanor.
Half an hour later, Meng Tang turned off the lights and climbed into bed.
She turned on her phone and entered a certain software platform. The message column was filled with red messages.
The number of fans increased by 3,000, and the number of messages increased by 99+.
What did Shi Lan say?
The answer can be found in Wei Chuan’s comment section.
Meng Tang saw it at a glance, because Wei Chuan also replied.
It all started with a comment from someone called "Xuehan" - Wei Chuan's taste isn't that good either.
Someone asked below if he knew Wei Chuan’s girlfriend.
[Xue Han]: I know her. She is not very good-looking and has no presence at all. She is a very ordinary person. I don’t know why Wei Chuan likes her.
[Flying Cat]: As expected, handsome guys have unusual taste.
[A Yue]: If I had been more persistent, would I have been able to get my boyfriend? Hehehe.
Then, Meng Tang saw the "Stone Beats You Through" and sent a sarcastic emoticon, replying to [Xue Han]:
When you are thirsty, go to the supermarket downstairs and buy two bottles of green tea. If you can’t finish them, pour them on the ground and judge your own behavior.
[W Weichuan] gave a thumbs up to [石石锤你].
There is no doubt that [The Stone Will Beat You Through] is Shi Lan.
Meng Tang read on and replied to [Flying Cat] again: "Handsome guys do have unique tastes. The ones they pick are way better than the rest of you." "If you want to argue with me, go to the Provincial Museum in Zhenxia District and find a wood carving of 'Naughty Boys Playing with Geese,' and then look through the authoritative catalogue in the 'Collection of Contemporary Chinese Arts and Crafts.'"
Meng Tang felt very embarrassed when he saw this, as if he was being praised in public.
[W Weichuan] liked [石刀锤您] and replied with an emoticon pack that said "Well said, brilliantly said".
[石打你冲] replied to [阿月]: I don’t know whether you can chase your idol or not, I only know that your idol chased my roommate with his shameless behavior.
[W Weichuan] liked [石把你锤通] and replied: You figured this out!
Meng Tang: “…”
These two people, one is the funny one and the other is the supporting one, are they performing crosstalk?
Meng Tang smiled and continued reading——
"Fuck, I think I know who she is. There was a lot of talk about University Student Z dropping out a while ago. Is she the heroine?"
"It's indeed her. I've found her account."
"She even shared some information about her work in the comments section. What an amazing student."
"Is Wei Chuan's vision not very good? It's really terrible, okay?"
"Brother Chuan is awesome, he's great at basketball and he's great at finding a girlfriend."
"Does anyone know what Meng Tang looks like?"
"Goodbye, she's usually very low-key at school and spends most of her time in the wood carving studio. We don't dare to disturb her easily."
Judging from their tone, they are classmates.
"I just visited her homepage, and it's full of videos about wood carving, not even a single selfie."
"Which one is it? Can you tag me, sister?"
“@木木木木, that’s it.”
Seeing this, Meng Tang silently turned off his phone.
Shi Lan opened the bed curtain again and asked quietly, "Meng Tang, have you finished reading it?"
Meng Tang said "hmm", then added: "Thank you."
Shi Lan was stunned: "Thank me?"
"What else?" Meng Tang laughed.
Yang Ke also lifted the curtain and helped Shi Lan explain: "You don't know, she has been worried all day."
Xie Lingyin: "I'll bear witness."
Meng Tang laughed and said, "How could I be angry? Am I so ungrateful? That's right, you're exaggerating a bit."
"Which sentence are you referring to?" Shi Lan asked.
Meng Tang was a little embarrassed: "It's just... you said Wei Chuan was shameless."
"He's just shameless." Shi Lan said, "I haven't even been to your house yet, and he got there first. You two weren't even dating at that time!"
Meng Tang: "...Okay, okay, let's stop talking. If you're willing, come back with me next summer vacation."
"Huh?" Shi Lan glared, "Why not during the upcoming winter vacation?"
Meng Tang explained to her, "Because I might not go back during the winter vacation, the museum has shipped a batch of cultural relics, and there is a Guanyin statue from the Qing Dynasty that needs to be restored. I might go with you to take a look."
Shi Lan said "awesome".
The next day was Xie Lingyin’s birthday. Since she had classes during the day, she arranged for everyone to celebrate together in the evening.
Meng Tang took a leave of absence from basketball class and hurried to the museum.
After chatting with Xun Lian for a long time, she took the subway to the party hall.
It’s a great place for team building, and many people like to celebrate their birthdays here.
There is a self-service kitchen here, and you need to cook your own food.
Just as Meng Tang arrived at the door of the party hall, Wei Chuan called.
When I picked up the phone, I heard Wei Chuan say, "I'll finish training at nine o'clock and pick you up then."
"Didn't you say no more?"
Wei Chuan said, "Xu Heqing's grandson said that I wouldn't go, so he asked Liang Heng to instigate you to play Truth or Dare. Listen to me, don't play with them. None of them has a conscience."
Meng Tang was speechless immediately because of the fun of the game.
Tian Yu urged on the other end of the phone, and Wei Chuan hurriedly threw down the words "wait for me" and hung up.
