"Teacher You, Xiangxiang usually bothers you a lot, right?" Gao Jin sat in the passenger seat, glanced at the restrained You Jinlan from the rearview mirror, and asked in as gentle a tone as possible. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

He secretly rejoiced in his heart, it was good that the driver drove the Bentley out, otherwise, his Koenigsegg Agera really couldn't sit four people. And the driver is driving without squinting, like a robot.

"Xiangxiang is very good, we usually say in the office that if every student is like Xiangxiang, we can change the name of the school. You Jinlan hurriedly replied, she was still a little shy, which made her look a little more gentle and less domineering with her facial features.

"Change your name?" Gao Xiangqi had gradually lost her breath, and she and You Jinlan sat in the back seat. "What's the name?"

"Pillar Academy. ”

"Hahahaha. Gao Xiangqi leaned back with a smile, "This name is too earthy." She laughed a little more, "But it's impressive." She said mischievously to her father, "When you introduce people in the future, you will say that your daughter is studying at Dongliang College." ”

Gao Jin couldn't help laughing, "What does it matter if the name is good? ”

Gao Xiangqi turned her head to look out the window disapprerovingly.

Gao Jin said slightly apologetically: "Teacher You, I'm really sorry, Xiangxiang was spoiled by me, no big or small." ”

You Jinlan smiled slightly, "Xiangxiang is very cute, I like her very much." She stretched out her hand and gently stroked the end of Gao Xiangqi's hair, "It's our blessing to have such a student." ”

Gao Jin turned his head and saw that You Jinlan's expression was extremely sincere, and his eyes were full of love for Gao Xiangqi, his heart moved, and he couldn't help blurting out, "Teacher You, you look very young, you don't look like a high school teacher." ”

You Jinlan smiled reservedly, "I'm not young anymore. ”

Gao Xiangqi said to her father angrily: "The age of the lady is a secret, why are you asking this?"

You Jinlan was afraid that the father and daughter would quarrel, so she hurriedly said: "Actually, it's not a secret, the teacher's information is available on the school's official website." She comforted Gao Xiangqi: "Xiangxiang, are you hungry? ”

Gao Xiangqi didn't buy it, "I was a little hungry, but now I'm full!"

Gao Jin listened to his daughter's words, and his eyes rolled, "Teacher You, what kind of food do you like to eat?"

You Jinlan was stunned, "I, it's okay, there's nothing particularly taboo." ”

Gao Jin thought for a while, "Teacher You, do you like to eat sushi?"

You Jinlan was a little embarrassed, "I rarely eat, I don't understand much." She looked out the car window and said bitterly, "I'm either in the studio or in the library all day, and I'm about to lose touch with the city." ”

Gao Jin heard her self-deprecation, and hurriedly comforted: "Teacher You is a scholar." ”

"Don't dare. You Jinlan replied modestly.

"Sister Lan, you're too polite. If I had a teacher like Frank Motherwell, I would have been shouting propaganda all over the world. Gao Xiangqi said with some dissatisfaction: "It's good for you, I'm afraid that others will know." ”

Gao Jin was stunned for a moment, "This name is so familiar." Then he remembered that it was the author of the painting that Wan Guohou had bought at a sky-high price! He asked tentatively, "Is it the master of oil painting?"

Gao Xiangqi glanced at him, "Yo, you actually know it's an oil painting!"

Gao Jin smiled good-naturedly, "I heard that his paintings are priceless. ”

Gao Xiangqi showed an expression of "I see", "I said, it's still related to money." I thought you were really interested in art, huh. ”

Gao Jin ignored his daughter's ridicule and continued to ask, "Teacher You, were you studying abroad before?"

You Jinlan replied: "No, I have been in China. Mr. Motherwell likes to collect things everywhere, and in '97, he came to China and gave lectures at our school, and he favored me to accept me as a student with mediocre qualifications. Later, he held art exhibitions everywhere, and I followed to help out or something. ”

Gao Jin listened patiently, but saw You Jinlan stop and fell silent.

He waited for a while, a little worried: "Teacher You?"

Gao Xiangqi saw that You Jinlan looked uncertain, so she said for her, "Last October, Frank Motherwell passed away. ”

Gao Jin said "ah" and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry." ”

You Jinlan said lightly: "It's okay, this is a relatively sensational thing in the circle." Of course, the average person may not pay much attention. ”

The car in front slowed down, and it was about to jam again. Gao Jin was irritable, he looked at the car in front of him for a while, and suddenly said: "Sometimes, I envy you teachers, you all deal with children, and the interpersonal relationship is quite simple, it's really good." ”

You Jinlan smiled: "Really? I didn't think about that. ”

"Then how did you come up with the idea of becoming a teacher?"

You Jinlan didn't expect Gao Jin to suddenly ask like this, and subconsciously replied: "I didn't think about it before. ”

Then, realizing that this answer was not appropriate, she added: "Before, I was so absorbed in books and paintings that I didn't think about teaching and educating people. Later, after the teacher passed away, I read some children's comments about him on the Internet and found that they really had no concept of art. Some people can't tell the difference between gouache, watercolor and oil painting, some think Leonardo da Vinci was American, and even some people think that with a camera they don't need a paintbrush anymore. She spoke a little faster, obviously excited.

She paused for a moment, then continued: "Maybe it was impulsive, but I felt that I had to do something to let the world know the value of art and let more children love painting." A society that does not respect art is terrible and impossible to progress. ”

Gao Xiangqi was dumbfounded when she heard this, and she couldn't help but applaud: "Sister Lan, you are amazing! Really, I almost want to worship you!"

You Jinlan took a breath, not knowing whether to be nervous or scared and glanced at Gao Jin.

Gao Jin looked at You Jinlan with appreciation, and his tone softened: "Teacher You, I have a hunch that we can become friends." ”

Gao Xiangqi laughed, "Dad, do you want Sister Paulan?"

"Xiangxiang!" You Jinlan immediately shouted, "Don't joke. ”

Gao Jin smiled but did not speak, and the atmosphere in the carriage became ambiguous and strange for a while.

Gao Xiangqi saw that You Jinlan was a little embarrassed, so she couldn't bear to tease her anymore, she looked at the slow-moving Chehe outside the car, and asked, "Dad, are you planning to go to 'Matsunosato'?"

Gao Jin glanced at her, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing. Gao Xiangqi took off her shoes and curled up, "It's still early, I'll sleep first, I'm sleepy." ”

"Sleep. Gao Jin turned up the temperature of the air conditioner, "I'll call you when it's time." ”

Gao Xiangqi soon fell asleep. You Jinlan was in her heart, she didn't know how far away the "Songzhili" was, she didn't seem to be polite if she didn't speak along the way, and she was afraid of arguing with Gao Xiangqi when she spoke. She was caught in a conflict, and she didn't know what to do for a while.

"Teacher You. It was Gao Jin who broke the silence, "It seems so rusty to call it." He suddenly smiled, "You're younger than me, I'll call you Lan Lan, okay?"

You Jinlan was shocked, her husband also called her so. She resisted the awkwardness and fear in her heart, "Of course you can." ”

"Lan Lan, listen to your accent, are you a local?"

You Jinlan hesitated, but still told the truth, "I'm from Chongming Island." After saying that, she couldn't help but ask, "What about you?"

Gao Jin didn't expect her to take the initiative to ask herself, and she was overjoyed, "I'm from YN, have you heard of Hancheng?" ”

You Jinlan nodded, "Well, it seems that there is some kind of amber jade or something." ”

Gao Jin grinned, "It's all stones." He glanced at You Jinlan again, "I thought you were from the north." ”

You Jinlan smiled bitterly, "Because I'm taller, my face is not as delicate as that of women in Jiangsu and Zhejiang." ”

"I like you like it, a delicate girl is too mediocre. Gao Jin's undisguised praise made You Jinlan a little embarrassed, "But I don't speak like a northerner, I don't speak well in Mandarin." ”

"When you say good Mandarin, do you mean the kind of 'where have you been today?'" Gao Jin deliberately exaggerated to learn the big tongue, and the strange "children's voice" made You Jinlan laugh deliciously.

She smiled, and her mood relaxed, "Mr. Gao, you are so humorous. ”

Gao Jin smiled slyly, "Lan Lan, do you have a boyfriend?"

This sudden question startled You Jinlan, and she was stunned for a few seconds before replying, "No." ”

Gao Jin's face was not shocked: "You are so good, but you have always been single, won't your family urge you?"

You Jinlan was silent for a while, "My parents are gone many years ago, and I have no brothers and sisters, so I am alone, of course no one urges me." ”

"I'm sorry!" Gao Jin hurriedly apologized, "I really didn't expect it, I didn't mean to!"

"It doesn't matter. You Jinlan comforted Gao Jin in turn, "It's been a long time." ”

"Actually, my parents have been dead for many years. When I was very young, they were gone, and I was brought up by my grandmother. Gao Jin's words made You Jinlan feel sad for a while, of course her parents are still there, but Gao Jin's parents are really gone. Then, there was a wave of disgust in her heart, she couldn't figure out what was wrong with her, and she actually had a little sympathy for Gao Jin. She immediately shook her head, as if to shake off the unpleasant feeling she felt. Then, she took a deep breath and whispered: "We are all fallen people at the end of the world, why should we know each other when we meet." ”

Gao Jin's eyes flashed, and at this moment, this poem sounded different. "Lan Lan, have you noticed, we have a lot of similarities. ”

"Really?" You Jinlan raised her eyebrows, "Like, we all like Xiangxiang?"

"Of course, it's not all. Gao Jin laughed loudly, his laughter echoing in his chest, as if vibrating with his bald head.

You Jinlan stared at his bald head, then noticed the tattoo on his neck, and she asked curiously, "What kind of pattern do you have?" ”

Gao Jin said with some surprise: "Amazing, how can you see it?"

Yu Jinlan smiled embarrassedly, "Because there are cherry blossom petals, and there are waves that look like ukiyo-e." She hesitated, "It feels like a murderous tattoo." ”

"It's the Eight Snakes. Gao Jin replied, "It has eight heads and eight tails, it can call the wind and rain, it is like a drunkard, it can easily annihilate the roads and mountains and rivers, and it does many evils, and it is a vicious beast in the eyes of many people." ”

You Jinlan was taken aback, these words were like Gao Jin's self-description, she looked at Gao Jin cautiously, and made sure that the latter was not sarcastic, so she said slowly: "It's just a myth and legend." ”

"Are you scared?" Gao Jin seemed to realize her uneasiness.

"Nope. You Jinlan didn't expect Gao Jin to be so sensitive and suspicious, she smiled disguisedly: "I don't like snakes too much. ”

"Very few women like snakes. Gao Jin said nonchalantly, "Because it feels cold-blooded." ”

"By the way, Mr. Gao, I seem to have heard my colleague say that 'Matsunosato' is a very famous Japanese cuisine, right?" You Jinlan decided to change the subject, she really didn't want to talk to Gao Jin about snakes.

"That's my shop. Gao Jin smiled, "The chefs are all invited from RB to ensure the original taste." ”

You Jinlan pretended to be surprised and said, "It turned out to be Mr. Gao's shop! I hadn't heard Xiangxiang mention it before, she only said that you were in business." This girl is really going to keep it a secret. ”

Gao Jin glanced at his daughter, who was still sleeping, "She is probably afraid that after you know my identity, she will not be comfortable with her." ”

"How come?" You Jinlan gently stroked the end of Gao Xiangqi's hair again, "I'm just afraid that others will think I'm a boring nerd." She lowered her eyelids, "I have very few friends, especially in this bustling city." ”

Gao Jin couldn't help but glance back at her, "Now you have a friend of mine." He especially emphasized the word "I", as if he was afraid that You Jinlan would not believe it. "In these days, there are not many people who dare to insist on themselves, and even fewer women like you who fight for their ideals. Gao Jin said sincerely, "I admire you very much and hope to be your friend." ”

You Jinlan laughed silently, and she squeezed the handle of her handbag.

Chehe finally moved again, and the driver skillfully drove the car onto a small road, and soon, it drove to the intersection of Wushang Road.

You Jinlan looked at the "Matsunosato" building not far away, and suddenly felt sick to her stomach. She clearly recalled the picture Dai Tian had shown her, of her daughter falling to her death in front of that building, her round eyes empty and blank, but with a silent accusation.

"Stop!" she suddenly shouted, the driver braked sharply, and quickly pulled over, You Jinlan immediately opened the car door, rushed out, and vomited violently.

"Are you alright?" Gao Jin also hurriedly got out of the car. Gao Xiangqi was awakened, she rolled down the car window, and watched all this in amazement.

After You Jinlan finished spitting, she took out the tissue in her bag, wiped her face clean, and then said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Mr. Gao, I'll invite you to dinner another day, okay? ”

Gao Jin looked at her face carefully, and then nodded: "Well, then we'll meet again another day." So, I'll send you back now?"

You Jinlan shook her hand again and again, "I want to walk slowly for a while and take the subway back." Maybe a little motion sickness today. ”

Seeing her say this, Gao Jin couldn't be reluctant, he took out his mobile phone, "What's your phone number?"

You Jinlan reported her number, her face was pale, and she looked very weak indeed. Gao Jin wrote down her phone number, but he was still a little relieved, "Do you really want me to send you back?"

"No, you take care of Xiangxiang, she's a little cold today. You Jinlan waved at Gao Xiangqi, and then said to Gao Jin: "I'm leaving, don't worry about me." ”

She gradually walked away in Gao Jin's gaze, and she was relieved until she walked out of the street, turned the corner, and turned back and could no longer see Gao Jin's car.
