Chapter 2 Reincarnation is a technical job
Friday at Jiele is the worst day of the week as Ren is off.
The heat wave outside the store hit with the summer breeze, and many passers-by sweated on the tip of their noses. Two food delivery workers squatted side by side under the eaves to hide from the sun. The boss stood next to the air conditioner with a black face and looked at them, thinking about cutting costs if there was no big order in the future.
"Brother Ren went to the Academy of Fine Arts early this morning to deliver materials. The food delivery man who lives in a dormitory with Ren Jiayi nibbles a popsicle and said, "He can make some money again." If only I had his ability, he would still use it to deliver food here. ”
Xiao Chuan in the dormitory next door was also really envious of Ren Jiayi, thinking about himself, and sighed resignedly: "We have no ability but to work hard." He took the tea foam he had brewed in the dormitory, took a sip and said, "Recently, I made a lot of money selling T-shirts in the night market, do you want to join me?"
Big bag smash it, smash it, smash it, and refuse, "Come on." Your T-shirt is only a few bucks in profit. I still have to go and restock. ”
Xiao Chuan was silent when he heard this, and lowered his head to drink tea.
Dabao glanced at Xiaochuan's teacup and said, "Brother Ren didn't give you a box of good tea, why don't you drink it." ”
"I took it back to my dad, who didn't drink good tea. Xiao Chuan looked up and smiled happily, with two tea leaves on his teeth, which was weird.
"Tsk. The big bag stuffed the last sipsicle, turned his head and said vaguely: "Let's talk to Brother Ren when we get back, can we work with him, so that your father can drink good tea in the future." ”
"Forget it, I'm embarrassed to trouble Brother Ren. Xiao Chuan was embarrassed, "We don't understand his livelihood." ”
"Wait until I ask him. Big Bag threw away the popsicle stick and got up.
"You two are still chattering!" the boss shouted in the store, "The Academy of Fine Arts has come to order!
"It's coming!" Dabao picked up Xiaochuan and quickly ran into the store to pick up the food, and rode the electric car to set off.
Today, there are a few orders from the Academy of Fine Arts, Xiaochuan went back after delivering the meal to catch up with the division of labor, and Dabao wandered around the campus looking for Ren Jiayi.
There is a truck parked in front of the professional building of the Academy of Fine Arts, and the driver is unloading the cargo. Da Bao saw Ren Jiayi come out of the building from afar and rushed over on a bicycle. "Brother Ren!"
Ren Jiayi beckoned, turned back to the squad leader of the third class of 17-level sculpture and said, "If you don't have enough materials, contact me at any time, I'll have someone send it." ”
"No problem. The squad leader responded happily and said with a smile: "Today, the little girls in our department are not happy that they can't designate you to deliver food, but you just saw that they were happy to see you one by one." ”
"As soon as I delivered food, they saw what I was happy about. Ren Jiayi bowed his head and signed the order.
"Haven't you been on the news? The little girls in the surrounding colleges know about you. The most handsome takeaway guy. The squad leader said meaningfully.
When it comes to this stubble, Ren Jiayi has a headache. Last time, a girl from a certain school took a photo of him delivering food and posted it on the Internet, but it was frantically forwarded, and later it was on the life channel of Mincheng. He found the girl and asked to delete the photos on the Internet and sent a letter to the TV station, and the matter lost its heat.
As soon as he delivered takeaways, he didn't sell skins.
Dabao parked on the side of the road, took off his helmet and unloaded the cargo with the driver, and his movements were very slippery.
Ren Jiayi raised his eyes and looked at the big bag, turned his head and said, "As long as they don't take pictures of me, everything is easy to say." Otherwise, I'll have to move to the back kitchen. ”
The squad leader hurriedly changed his words and said good things, "I watched them and didn't let them shoot." ”
Ren Jiayi smiled and thanked him.
He wants to become a back kitchen, how can he come to the Academy of Fine Arts to find works, the students are counting on him to help him find employment, and the artist also needs to have a good meal.
"Brother Ren, will you go back to the dormitory in a while?" asked Dabao as he threw down a bag of red mud.
"No, I have to go out, let's have dinner together in the evening. Ren Jiayi shook his mobile phone at the driver and signaled that he had paid.
Big bag oh, and the driver finished carrying the last bag of lime powder. The driver said to take Ren Jiayi for a ride, and Ren Jiayi was about to follow the driver when he saw Cen Ji coming from the dormitory building. Isn't that a coincidence?
Cen Yu walked alone under the scorching sun, not only did he not tan, but his skin was still white and glowing.
Ren Jiayi sighed: "Why is she again." ”
"Do you know her?" the squad leader was surprised.
"I don't know. Ren Jiayi turned around.
"You scared me. The squad leader had a "I knew it was impossible" expression, "She doesn't communicate with her family, how can she talk to you." ”
"What do you mean. Ren Jiayi heard something in the student's words. What's the girl's story?
Cen Qi turned and walked up the steps, walked past Ren Jiayi to the professional building, and didn't even look at Ren Jiayi, as if they hadn't seen each other that day. Ren Jiayi looked at her straight back and frowned.
It's only been a few days, and Cen Qi doesn't remember Ren Jiayi.
The squad leader standing at the entrance of the professional building quickly bounced away to make way for Cen Qi. Although Cen Yu appears on campus every day, and the students know her, basically no one will take the initiative to talk to her.
"Isn't this the fairy sister that I said on the Internet, it's so beautiful. The big bag came over and sighed.
The squad leader glanced at Dabao, and said in a long voice: "Good looking is good-looking, she can only watch from afar." ”
Ren Jiayi asked strangely, "What's wrong with her?"
The squad leader realized that there were many words, paused a little and said: "Her name is Cen Qi, she is the first senior sister of the oil painting department, and the key training object of our school. Her paintings as a teenager were well-known abroad, and her family background was also very good. ”
"Someone else's life. Dabao is both envious and admired, "Reincarnation is a technical job." ”
What did Ren Jiayi want to say as the squad leader, it was something inconsequential, he was not interested, so he moved his feet to leave.
The squad leader stopped him, "Brother Ren, the oil painting exhibition area of the art museum yesterday hung out her works from the beginning of her entry into the school, you can go and see them when you have time." Next door to her is a painting by the dean of the School of Fine Arts, and you know how good she is. ”
"Oh?" Ren Jiayi stopped and turned back with interest.
The dean of the School of Fine Arts is one of the famous contemporary oil painting masters, a painting is worth a lot, Ren Jiayi has long heard of the dean's name, but has not heard of Cen Qi's name.
The squad leader seemed to see what Ren Jiayi was thinking, and said, "Her work is signed by Aurora Shum, don't you find it." ”
"The name is a bit familiar. Ren Jiayi felt like he had heard it somewhere.
"She was born and raised in London, so her signature is in English. The squad leader glanced at his mobile phone, and felt that he couldn't say more, so he pointed to the time on the mobile phone screen and went back to the studio.
"I've delivered so many meals at the Academy of Fine Arts, but I've never seen this fairy sister. Big bag wondered.
"I haven't seen it either. Ren Jiayi turned his head to look at the direction where the art museum was located, and looked back to let the driver go first, he wanted to go to the art museum to have a look.
Dabao wanted to go with him to take a look, but after taking a few more orders, he immediately turned around and went back to the fast food restaurant.
The museum will start its exhibition tomorrow, and students from the Department of Modeling and Architecture are setting up the museum. When Ren Jiayi entered, several students invited him to see his works, but he politely declined.
Ren Jiayi dug a student in the sculpture department last time and recommended it to a fairly famous animation company in Mincheng, this student now earns a considerable amount of money and is also well-known in the industry. So in the hearts of the students, Ren Jiayi exists like a scout.
This time, Ren Jiayi came to Cen Qi's painting and went directly upstairs to the oil painting display area.
The paintings of the dean of the School of Fine Arts are in a place where there are three paintings, which are the treasures of the town hall and will not be touched easily. Ren Jiayi came to see it many times, and when he went around, he saw Cen Qi's paintings.
On the two walls nearly three meters high, there are more than a dozen black-and-white or color oil paintings of different sizes, ranging from a small square frame the size of a palm to a huge painting three meters long.
Most of the paintings are bold in color, and many of the compositions are from a large angle of looking up or looking down, which is extremely inconsistent with Cen Qi's cold appearance. In addition to the hyper-realistic painting style, there are also contrasting abstract paintings. These abstract paintings include close-ups of certain human bodies, such as eyes and mouths, as well as hazy landscapes.
Each painting seems to hide an emotion. For example, many lips fell into the vortex of mixed colors, Ren Jiayi felt anxious after looking at it for a while, and when he moved his eyes to another wild landscape painting with unclear outlines but warm and bright colors, he felt relaxed and happy.
Ren Jiayi suddenly remembered the evaluation of Aurora Shum in foreign magazines - a very infectious emotional painter.
This was a great opportunity to fall from the sky, and he couldn't afford to miss it.
At four o'clock, Cen Yu finished today's painting and got up to pack up his brushes.
The student next to him immediately took out his mobile phone and texted the tutor. After about half an hour, someone would pick him up at the school gate, every day.
Ren Jiayi waited on the bench opposite the door of the studio for more than an hour, and as soon as Cen Yu appeared, he immediately followed.
"Hello, Mr. Cen. I am an agent of a contemporary art agency, Ren Jiayi. Ren Jiayi politely kept a certain distance from Cen Qi and handed over the business card. "Your work is outstanding. Do you have any interest in art agency? Let's talk. ”
Cen Yu skipped the business card and ignored Ren Jiayi, and walked through the door of the picture book studio to the door of the professional building.
"Classmate Cen?" Ren Jiayi called after him, but Cen Ji didn't look back.
Ren Jiayi didn't want to give up, and quickened his pace to catch up with Cen Qi, when a gust of wind suddenly blew through the hall, and the sweet aroma of geraniums brushed through the tip of his nose, refreshing his heart. He suddenly stood in place.
Cen Qi was about to walk out of the professional building, when a voice came from behind him: "Aurora?"
She stopped, slowly looked back at Ren Jiayi, and frowned slightly, as if she was not very happy.
Ren Jiayi took two steps forward and asked in English if he could talk, but when he saw Cen Ji take a step back, he could only stand where he was and wait for her to reply.
But Cen Qi just looked at him for a while, didn't even move his lips, and turned to leave.
This time, Ren Jiayi didn't chase him, and there was no need to chase him, he could see that Cen Qi didn't want to deal with him. But he recalled the subtle change in the expression on Cen Qi's face, and felt that it was impossible for Cen Qi to not understand Chinese, but Cen Qi's reaction made him feel elusive.
What a lonely and strange girl.
