Chapter 36
Because the movie was too boring, Yin Mu was distracted and kept eating without realizing it. He had said before that he would take the remaining snacks back to share with Zhong Mengyuan and the others, but in the end he didn't have much left.
Seeing Zhang Yang say that with such sincerity, she rarely felt a little embarrassed in front of him and was speechless for a moment.
[Hahahaha, Yin Mu, do you also run out of words sometimes? ]
Zhang Yang's words were so sincere and heartfelt that there was no way to refute them.
[As long as he doesn't say anything rude, Yin Mu is still very gentle. ]
[The main thing is that I feel good after eating. (dog head)]
I suddenly wondered if Zhang Yang would secretly work out in his room at night.
…
Yin Mu and Zhang Yang were the first to return to the villa. The villa was empty when they left, and it was quiet again when they returned.
Zhang Yang said, "It looks like they all plan to eat outside before coming back."
"I don't know, maybe." Yin Mu said casually, "But Meng Yuan said he would be back soon."
"Really?" Zhang Yang asked, not knowing whether he had truly forgotten or was feigning confusion to find a topic of conversation. "Who did Zhong Mengyuan go on a date with?"
"Jiangnan Rain."
Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Then I'll go upstairs to change and come down to cook. Do you want to eat? I can make you one too."
Yin Mu's eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief: "Did I hear correctly? You, help me cook? How can I be so worthy of that?"
Zhang Yang finally couldn't suppress his dissatisfaction anymore. He took a deep breath and said, "Yin Mu, can you please speak nicely? I don't think I have offended you today."
Yin Mu quickly covered his mouth: "Sorry, sorry, I said that subconsciously, I didn't mean it."
Zhang Yang saw that her apology was quite sincere, so he didn't want to argue with her any further. He replied sullenly, "Then I'll go upstairs first."
"oh……"
Yin Mu had nothing to do in the living room, so he planned to go upstairs to wash his face and lie down for a while, and then go downstairs when someone came back, so as to avoid staring at Zhang Yang alone, which would be boring.
She changed her clothes and collapsed on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
Zhong Mengyuan and Jiang Nanyu left the villa at lunch time, saying that they were going out to eat something delicious and then discuss where to go while eating.
I don’t know where they are playing now, Yin Mu thought, and turned over lazily.
At this time, Zhong Mengyuan and Jiang Nanyu, whom she was thinking about, had finished their DIY art workshop and were on their way back to the villa.
Zhong Mengyuan originally planned to just come for fun. It didn't matter who she dated, the key was to have fun. She and Jiang Nanyu went to eat Japanese food at noon, and discussed their afternoon plans while eating.
Jiang Nanyu suggested going to see a play or musical, but Zhong Mengyuan had no interest in these things at all. She said frankly, "If you don't mind me falling asleep at the beginning, then I have no problem with that."
Jiang Nanyu asked her, "Is there any place you want to go? We can discuss it."
Zhong Mengyuan thought for a while and said, "How about trying pottery? I've always wanted to try it, but it's a pity that Yin Mu just wouldn't accompany me."
"Okay, I haven't done it either." Jiang Nanyu and Zhong Mengyuan were not familiar with each other, and he didn't want to have any unpleasantness with her over these small issues, so he agreed very readily. He couldn't help but ask, "You have a good relationship with Yin Mu, right?"
"Hmm...I'm fine. What's wrong?"
"No, nothing." Jiang Nanyu shook her head. "I just think it's amazing that a dating show could invite two people who are so familiar to each other, and you guys don't even know each other."
Zhong Mengyuan was vague: "I've been busy recently, so we haven't been in touch much and haven't talked about this."
It's common for good friends to drift apart, so Jiang Nanyu didn't doubt it: "So that's how it is."
"Well, yes." Zhong Mengyuan responded and quickly changed the subject to talk about something else.
Her evasive attitude was a bit suspicious. Even though Jiang Nanyu didn't care, netizens in the live broadcast room refused to let go of these details and began to speculate about the private relationship between Yin Mu and Zhong Mengyuan.
[Are you so busy with something so important that you don't even want to talk about it? What do you two do?]
[That's normal. My friends and I might only chat once every ten days or half a month.]
Are they the kind of friends from school who haven't been in touch for 800 years since graduation?
[However, when talking about pottery, Zhong Mengyuan subconsciously mentioned Yin Mu, and it didn't seem deliberate.]
[Right, right, right. Yin Mu also said before that he doesn't like the sticky feeling when making pottery. This is right.]
…
Zhong Mengyuan and Jiang Nanyu found a DIY art workshop that did not require advance reservations. After arriving there, the program team communicated with the store manager to confirm that they could broadcast the entire process live.
Perhaps because it was newly opened not long ago, there were not many customers coming to experience the workshop. Apart from them, there were only four other people, a young couple who behaved intimately, and the other two should be close sisters. They were so affectionate and affectionate that Zhong Mengyuan couldn't help but think of herself and Yin Mu.
It’s a pity that Yin Mu rejected her invitation to make pottery twice. She was too lazy to invite someone else and didn’t have time to invite Yin Mu for the third time, so they are in their current situation.
Thinking about it now, I never could have predicted that the person who would help me realize this little wish would be a boy who was not even a friend.
The more Zhong Mengyuan thought about it, the more emotional he felt. He turned his head to look at Jiang Nanyu and saw that he was listening attentively to the teacher's instructions on precautions when operating the machine.
Fortunately, he looks okay and is not a disgusting guy, so it doesn't affect my mood.
Zhong Mengyuan nodded affirmatively at Jiang Nanyu's pretty profile.
Perhaps her gaze was too direct, Jiang Nanyu noticed it and turned to look at her.
Zhong Mengyuan was caught red-handed. He blinked and immediately acted as if nothing had happened. He looked straight ahead and pretended to listen attentively.
Jiang Nanyu touched his face to make sure there was no dirt on it, and frowned in confusion.
The teacher in charge of teaching and guiding them was named Wei. She looked young and had a pure and clear look in her eyes. Zhong Mengyuan guessed that she was a college student who started her own business.
Teacher Wei is very patient and explains in great detail. It is obvious that he has never been "tortured" by difficult customers and is full of enthusiasm and motivation for his work.
"Even for experienced craftspeople, expecting to create a satisfactory piece in one go is unrealistic, let alone beginners. So don't be afraid of making mistakes. Only through constant experimentation and practice can you achieve the work you desire." After the basic training, Teacher Wei encouraged them, "So go ahead and do it. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. I will do my best to help you."
Zhong Mengyuan listened for a long time, but was still in a state where his eyes understood but his hands did not, and he was at a loss as to what to do with the pile of clay in front of him.
She looked at Jiang Nanyu and saw that he also seemed at a loss as to what to do. She asked softly, "What are you going to do?"
Jiang Nanyu scratched his head. "Plate? Plates should be simpler. What about you? What do you do?"
"Let's make a smaller one. A big one takes up too much space." Zhong Mengyuan thought for a moment and said, "Let's make two cups. Life is like a tragedy. I'll make one for Yin Mu and me later."
Jiang Nanyu praised with difficulty: "The gift is very good, but the meaning is not..."
Zhong Mengyuan waved her hand: "It doesn't matter, this is not the point."
【Hahahaha, the meaning is very abstract.】
[Yin Mu: The gift is very good, please don’t give it to me next time.]
【At this moment, Yin Mu was sneezing violently. 】
"Well, it's a gift, no matter what it is."
[That's right! If Yin Mu doesn't want it, give it to me!]
…
Zhong Mengyuan rolled up his sleeves to his elbows, rubbed his hands together, and looked like he was ready to do something big.
Seeing this, Jiang Nanyu silently moved to the side to avoid being affected and having mud splashed on his face.
Zhong Mengyuan was very unskilled when she first started. The clay was sticky all over her hands and she couldn't get the clay into shape at all. After she finally got it into shape, she accidentally poked a big hole in it, which made her panic and sweat profusely.
Fortunately, with the patient guidance of Teacher Wei, Zhong Mengyuan reworked countless times and spent more than two hours before finally making two cups.
Teacher Wei comforted her: "It's not bad. Do you want to try again?"
Zhong Mengyuan looked it up and down for a long time and said, "Let's leave it like this. It's more artistic this way, isn't it?"
Teacher Wei couldn't help laughing: "It's a very unique and one-of-a-kind gift. Your friend will probably like it."
Zhong Mengyuan asked, "This needs to be fired. How many days does it usually take?"
"About two weeks. I'm sending a batch to the kiln today. Do you need yours fired?"
"Two weeks?" Zhong Mengyuan's eyes widened in surprise. "I've been away for two weeks."
Teacher Wei was stunned: "Huh?"
Zhong Mengyuan hurriedly explained: "I mean our show is over."
"That's okay," Teacher Wei said with a smile. "You can leave your home address and I'll send it directly to your home after it's fired. Many people do that."
Jiang Nanyu jokingly said, "The monk can run away, but the temple cannot, right?"
"Hmm..." Zhong Mengyuan looked hesitant, thinking that the temple could not be escaped, but the problem was that this temple was not that temple.
Seeing that she didn't answer, Teacher Wei asked again: "How is it? Do you want it to be burned? Wouldn't it be meaningful to keep it as a souvenir?"
Zhong Mengyuan gritted his teeth and made a decision: "Okay, then I'll leave my address and phone number."
If you are not the one who receives the cup, just think of it as a thank you gift from the person who shares your body.
Zhong Mengyuan's hands were sore from making these two cups. Seeing that it was getting late, and remembering that she had promised Yin Mu to go back early, she suggested going back to the villa.
Jiang Nanyu had no objection. They both went to the bathroom to tidy up and then started their return journey.
Zhong Mengyuan stretched his sore arms and asked Jiang Nanyu before getting in the car: "Are you tired? Do you want me to drive?"
"It's okay, I'm fine." Jiang Nanyu walked straight to the driver's seat and reached out to open the car door. "If you're tired, just take a nap on the way."
Zhong Mengyuan raised an eyebrow: "It really doesn't matter? Then I won't be polite to you."
"It's not a big deal. I didn't realize you were so thoughtful." Jiang Nanyu smiled and said, "I had a lot of fun today. I have to thank you."
"I want to thank you, too." Zhong Mengyuan pursed her lips and offered a sincere suggestion, "Also, brother, if you don't know how to praise someone, don't force yourself to do it."
