Chapter 18: It's a pity that he delivers food
After the beginning of autumn, Mincheng has entered the hottest month, with bright sunshine and high temperature warnings every day.
The cool set meal at the Jiele fast food restaurant is extremely popular, and Ren Jiayi is busy until two o'clock to have lunch, every day.
He delivered food at the entrance of the Mincheng University School of Medicine at noon today, but fortunately he brought a parasol over, otherwise he would be tanned into black briquettes.
Dabao unloaded the big lunch box from the truck, wiped his sweat and asked, "Brother Ren, where did you buy the osmanthus cake that day, it is delicious." I'm thinking about it again today, I'll buy some later. ”
"The Southern Pavilion at the back entrance of the Academy of Fine Arts. Ren Jiayi checked the order and replied casually: "If you want to buy it, help me bring a copy." ”
"Don't you like sweets?" said the big bag carrying the lunch box to the curb to catch its breath. "There's a lot of sugar in the osmanthus cake. ”
"I'll give it away, you can bring one for me. Ren Jiayi picked up the cold mineral water on the ground and threw it to him.
The big bag drank half of the bottle, it felt really cool, and then looked at the short-sleeved shirt on Ren Jiayi's body that was half wet.
"You go back to the dormitory to take a shower and then go to the Academy of Fine Arts?" Dabao put the iced mineral water in his heart to cool down.
Ren Jiayi clapped his hands, "This thing is too cold, you can rest assured that you can find trouble." ”
Dabao hurriedly moved the mineral water spring, hehe laughed dryly, and said that it was good to have a brother who had been a doctor.
"You bought cakes and put them in the dormitory, and I'll go back and take them away after taking a shower. Ren Jiayi spread out the last sheet to check the details and called the students to receive the meal.
He sweated so much and didn't go back to wash and change his clothes, and the smell of sweat was not good for Cen Qi.
"No problem. After drinking the remaining half bottle of water to help Ren Jiayi make a meal, he was thirsty again after a while. He asked, "Brother Ren, is there still water?"
"It's all there, you take it yourself. Ren Jiayi pointed behind him, there were several bottles of mineral water and drinks under the holly tree, all of which were given by students, of course, most of them were female students.
"This is the age of looking at faces. Dabao sighed, why didn't anyone deliver water when he delivered the meal.
"Brother Ren, the beef salad we ordered today, ten servings. A male student at the medical school walked under the umbrella and said.
Ren Jiayi searched in the lunch box and took out a big bag for him, "How is your paper?"
"That has to be fine. The male student was proud, "Thanks to you pushing a few of my books and websites, I was inspired." I'll treat you to dinner another day. ”
"You just order more. Ren Jiayi smiled and asked him to sign the next student.
The order for this watch was dispatched, and it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.
Xiaohua played a mobile phone game in the truck at noon, and Dabao urged him for the fourth time, so he put away his mobile phone and started the car and gave Dabao gas.
Ren Jiayi carried the empty lunch box and got into the car, turned around and said a few words to a few female students who also came to ask for the website/address and the title of the book, and wrote down the list and the website/address to them, which can be regarded as the end of today's food pie.
The truck of Jiele Fast Food drove out of Minda, and several girls were talking on the road.
"Brother Ren, a person in a fast food restaurant, how can he understand so much and read medical books?"
"I heard the class leader say that he seems to have studied, but why does he work in a fast food restaurant? I just don't understand. ”
"Hey, it's a pity that he's delivering takeaways, or I'd really like to chase him. He's so handsome and has a good figure. ”
"You're discriminating against other people's jobs? ”
"Cut, let you go with a food delivery guy, would you like to? He's handsome, but we're not the same kind of people after all. ”
“…… Also. ”
Although Ren Jiayi is very popular in colleges and universities, there are not many girls who really confess to him, and they are all hindered by Ren Jiayi's work of delivering meals from a distance.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Ren Jiayi rushed to the Academy of Fine Arts, and Cen Ji had already set up the canvas and waited for him.
He has been learning painting with Cen Qi for nearly a week, and even though he has a high comprehension, he still fails on the foundation and often draws four dissimilarities.
Last time, he joked with Cen Qi about painting yams, and Cen Qi really taught him to draw one, but the color he adjusted was not yellow, green, or green, so disgusting to himself, Cen Qi helped him change it back. Cen Zhu is a legendary hand-printed, ultra-realistic and easy, he can't reach it.
Today, Cen taught to draw a bunch of apples, red, yellow, green, large, small and ten. He thought it would be so difficult, and when Cen Yu finished demonstrating, he would have one head and two big.
The color of the apple itself is only a few, which is affected by the ambient color, light source color and cold and warm colors, and changes a little. The apple painted by Cen Qi is waxed, and the color is transparent and full. He painted like a rotting apple, crooked.
Cen Zhu pointed to the apple in the picture with the pen and said to the one drawn by Ren Jiayi: "This is red." ”
Of course, Ren Jiayi knew that the apples he painted should be red, but Cen Qi didn't let him directly squeeze the red paint and paint it on the canvas, so he turned it off and ran astray. Cen Qi's pigments were very expensive, and he suddenly felt like he was in a violent state.
"Why don't you help me change it again?" Ren Jiayi raised his paintbrush and asked tentatively with a side face. The contrast on the picture is too tragic, and he is embarrassed to look at it.
Cen Qi said categorically: "No." ”
She helped change several, and if she helped change it, could there still be any paintings painted by Ren Jiayi.
Ren Jiayi didn't expect her to be so strict, so she simply played a clever trick and directly smeared the color she tuned on the canvas, and the apple seemed to show some signs of rejuvenation.
Cen Qi watched as the color of his tone gradually decreased, but he didn't say anything, and moved the palette forward for him to rub it in.
The rotten apple had tried its best to salvage, and apart from the strange strokes, it finally looked like a normal apple.
"Look, it's much better now than it was just now. Ren Jiayi was about to turn his head, and his slender fingers touched the bridge of his nose, but he stiffened his neck and didn't turn around.
Cen followed the bridge of his straight nose all the way to his eyebrow bone, pressed twice to feel the movement of the bone, and then rubbed against the long eyelashes.
Ren Jiayi leaned back and blinked, a little itchy.
Cen Qi withdrew her hand and looked at Ren Jiayi, not knowing if she was looking at him or looking at the skull through him.
It was as if time had stood still.
Buzzing, the phone vibrates.
Ren Jiayi quickly came back to his senses, put down his paintbrush and took out his mobile phone to connect, and said to Cen Qi: "I'll go out and answer a call." ”
Cen Qi's gaze followed him as he walked out of the studio from the stool, and then moved to the revised apple. She re-toned the color and changed a few strokes for him. After a while, she put down her pen and took her sketchbook from the shelf, took out a charcoal pen, and drew on it.
As soon as Ren Jiayi walked out of the door, the uncle's voice came from the earpiece: "Hey, is it Jiayi?"
"Uncle?"
"Hey, I've got in touch with you. Uncle heard Ren Jiayi's voice after more than half a year, and he was very emotional. "Where are you?"
"I'm at the Academy of Fine Arts in the heart of the city. Ren Jiayi looked back at the half-open door of the studio, walked to the window and replied: "Are you coming to Mincheng?" ”
"I came yesterday, with a lecture in the morning and a surgery in the afternoon. I'll call you tomorrow. Let's talk. Uncle said.
"Okay uncle. ”
Uncle Ren Jiayi's tone was relaxed, and he was a little annoyed.
The uncle and nephew are in the same department, and although the uncle is not Ren Jiayi's mentor, he is Ren Jiayi's direct leader. Ren Jiayi started studying medicine, and his uncle looked forward to his graduation and quickly entered his department to share the pressure of the department. The two of them do rounds together during the day and sometimes work night shifts together at night. Ren Jiayi and his uncle must have spent more time in the hospital than with his father Ren Changling. In addition, the uncle is amiable, and Ren Jiayi has a closer relationship with him than the unreliable uncle.
Uncle said: "If you don't contact me for more than half a year, I can hold a grudge." It's not nice to say. Are you no closer to me than you are to your father?"
"Aren't I afraid that my mother will bring my aunt to the door? Ren Jiayi immediately changed his sad tone to seek his uncle's sympathy, "You don't know my aunt, she can make me want to jump into the river." ”
"Oh, don't mention her to me. "Uncle Ren Jiayi had a headache when he heard the name of Aunt Ren Jiayi," she scolded and cried to the little nurse in our department last week. The girl was just too sleepy to take a two-minute nap, she talked for half an hour. You said that there are still a few people left in our department, isn't she looking for something for me, so scared that the head nurse of our department keeps asking me to intercede, and I don't want to deal with her. ”
The words "our department" are so kind, Ren Jiayi leaned on the window edge and was a little gloomy, and quickly smiled: "So you know the reason why I don't dare to contact my family." I'm really scared. ”
Uncle is not afraid, he wants to complain that Ren Jiayi's aunt can say that the phone is out of battery, so he replied: "Yes, let's talk about it when we meet tomorrow." ”
"Good. ”
Ren Jiayi hung up the phone and went to the small exhibition hall to look at the progress of the three students before returning to the studio.
Cen Qi was lying on the sketchbook to draw, Ren Jiayi just walked over, she put the notebook into the bamboo bag on the side, and waited for him to continue painting.
Ren Jiayi always felt a little weird when he thought about the scene just now, took the osmanthus cake on the table and sat next to her, and gave her a pack of disinfectant wipes, "Rest for a while." He said and opened the box.
Cen Qi smelled the rich aroma of osmanthus flowers, put down the palette and was about to get it. Ren Jiayi removed the packing box, but she didn't have it.
"Wipe your hands clean. Ren Jiayi took out a wet tissue and put it in Cen Qi's palm.
This time, the role was reversed, and he became stricter.
Cen Yu was quite obedient and wiped the front and back with a tissue. He checked that there was no problem before putting the packing box in front of Cen Qi, and opened a bottle of sugar-free black tea drink and put it in Cen Qi's hand.
"I can't come over tomorrow for something. Ren Jiayi slowed down and said, "The day after tomorrow, you will teach me to draw again, okay?"
Cen picked up another piece of cake and gave it to him. He didn't wipe his hands, leaned over and bit his head and chewed slowly, like the seal in the aquarium was rewarded by a small fish, and almost had a tail wagging behind it. Cen Qi looked at him eating cakes, a smile appeared on his lips, and a small dimple appeared on his left cheek, which was very cute.
Ren Jiayi swallowed the osmanthus cake in one bite, and when he was about to take a closer look, Cen Ji returned to his original state. She took the next bite, and a smile flashed.
"Cen Qi?" Ren Jiayi called out indistinctly.
Cen Yu turned his head and looked at him inexplicably.
Ren Jiayi didn't ask what to say with a calm face. Maybe she was unconscious, and he couldn't make her laugh again.
But Fang Cai's smile was sweeter than her voice.
"I'm not coming tomorrow. Ren Jiayi confirmed whether Cen Qi had listened to him.
Cen Yu nodded, patted off the osmanthus petals in his hand, and turned the sketchbook to the blank page for him, "You draw the heart here." ”
Draw another heart?
Ren Jiayi didn't know what she was going to do, but it was a trivial matter for him, and he took the notebook and explained it to her while drawing. She pinched the last piece of osmanthus cake and listened as she ate.
At the door, the second male student who was entrusted by Professor Zheng to observe Cen Qi saw this scene and was petrified.
