Chapter 9 Graduation
After that, Lin Yansheng went to find Tao Qirui a few more times, but he didn't see anyone. She tried to add Tao Qirui back on WeChat, but if she deleted it, she deleted it, and Tao Qirui's hostility towards her was so deep that it was impossible to agree.
This incident once piled up a small mountain in Lin Yansheng's heart, which made her almost unable to laugh, but fortunately, school started soon, and she left the city to go to school, and it was another world, she was temporarily away from Mu Yi, away from her family, and away from Tao Qirui, and the hill gradually disappeared.
She also began to try to be good to others, no longer just accept and not reciprocate, a semester passed, and the relationship with several girls in the same dormitory became familiar, Lin Yansheng was happy from the bottom of her heart, she tasted the fruits of friendship for the first time, and also experienced the satisfaction of seeing others smile sincerely when they were good to others.
She is no longer willing to carefully inspect others as her mother taught her, people can't stand the scrutiny, only if they are good to others, others will be good to themselves in turn, this is the best harvest Lin Yansheng got during this time.
By the time you reach your senior year, you have to be ready to enter society. Lin Yansheng's life has become busy, and he has less contact with Mu Yi and his family.
For this reason, Mu Yi quarreled with her a lot, and they had never quarreled before. After making trouble like this a few times, Lin Yansheng felt tired, and it was already very annoying to deal with school and internships every day, Mu Yi still didn't understand herself so much, she felt aggrieved and angry.
He is not busy with anything, and after graduation, he went directly to his father's company for an internship, but he is different, his major sounds lofty, but it is really difficult to find a job.
She has a high spirit, relying on her strong professional ability and a little talent, and she doesn't want to wronged herself to work in that kind of small company and small studio, but there are so many people in the world who can draw, so she said that in her school, she can draw better than her. There are more people with strong communication skills, although she has also earned some pocket money in the past, but after graduation, it is always different from before, she has to make a plan, so that this plan can be effectively implemented, to ensure the quality of her life alone outside the home and whether the work can be carried out smoothly and continued.
These troubles once overwhelmed her, seeing that the roommates in the same dormitory had found a suitable job for herself, and she was still hanging in the air, and there were several old customers who asked her for drafts, she didn't have the heart to concentrate on drawing, so she had to push it off.
She had also confided her current troubles to Mu Yi, but Mu Yi listened to it, and there was only one suggestion, he could ask his father to help Lin Yansheng arrange a job, ensure that there was more money and less things to be close to home, and also allow her to have enough time for personal creation.
This statement sounded very tempting, but the more Lin Yansheng listened to it, the more angry he became, and he almost hung up the video in anger.
"I don't want it!" she flatly refused.
"Why?" Mu Yi looked at her in surprise,
"Look at you, how have you lost weight lately? You are so far away from us alone, what can you toss in that city? Why don't you come back, close to your parents, close to me, and I can take care of you, otherwise I won't be at ease." ”
"If I had thought like that, I wouldn't have come to this school in the first place. Lin Yansheng said, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart.
"That was before, we say now. Look, it's been almost half a month, have you done your job? Don't you like to draw? I can help you arrange it, you still paint when you come back here, and it's easier than there, why don't you come back?"
"That's the life you want me to live, not the life I want to live. ”
"Then what kind of life do you want to live?" Mu Yi asked, looking at Lin Yansheng seriously.
"I-" Lin Yansheng paused, but couldn't say anything, yes, although she had always had a vague belief in her heart, but at this time, let her say it clearly, but she couldn't say anything.
She hung her head weakly and said,
"Anyway, you leave me alone, I'll take care of my own business. ”
"Look, you can't even say it, Yan Sheng, you just listen to me, when you come home after graduation, I will take care of you every day, I will prepare everything for you, you can just paint well, okay?" Lin Yansheng looked at Mu Yi's sincere eyes, she didn't doubt that Mu Yi was telling the truth, although it was very tempting, it also made her feel dangerous.
Since she was a child, her education was to be independent and autonomous, she would rather rely on herself to fight for everything than rely on others to get a superior life, and moreover, one person will not rely on another person for a lifetime, what if it comes to that time, what should she do?
The sense of dependence for such a long time was gone in an instant, could she still be strong? Thinking of this, Lin Yansheng's heart was a little defensive and uneasy, she lowered her voice and said slowly,
"That's it, I'll hang up first. ”
"Okay, think about it, there's still a month before graduation anyway. As soon as Mu Yi finished speaking, the video ended.
Lin Yansheng threw his phone aside, lay on his back and looked at the ceiling. I don't know how long it took, but the roommates all came back from their dates one by one, washing their faces, playing and playing, they all had their own happy things, mysterious and attractive.
Lin Yansheng sighed, sat up, and just reached up from below, holding a ball of small bread in his hand, and the girl in the opposite shop smiled at her: "Do you want to eat it?" I ran a long way to buy it, this small bread is delicious." ”
"Thank you. Lin Yansheng felt embarrassed, hurriedly took it, thanked her, and took out a handful of candy from under the pillow, stuffed it into the girl, and said with a smile,
"You eat candy, don't you usually like candy?"
"Toothache lately. The girl said this, but she still smiled and took it. This little incident temporarily made Lin Yansheng's mood better, she smiled and watched them play in the small dormitory, and for a moment she was suddenly very satisfied with the life in front of her.
But soon, this mood was interrupted, and the phone rang again, this time with the name of her parents appearing on the screen.
Lin Yansheng raised his eyebrows, he didn't know what happened to his parents sending him a video at this time. She quickly picked it up, and two familiar faces appeared on the screen, with Lin Yanhuan sitting at the table and busy in front of the computer in the background.
"Dad, Mom, what's wrong?" Lin Yansheng hid in the bed curtain and asked in a soft voice.
"Nothing, just look at you. Shen Jingyou smiled, took a closer look at her daughter's face, and said,
"I seem to have lost a bit of weight lately. ”
"Huh?"
"That's right, Yan Sheng, how are you doing with your work lately?" the father leaned over and asked with concern.
Lin Yansheng heard her parents ask about her work, she had already looked away, she smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's good." ”
"I won't hide it from you, just now Xiaoyi called us and told us about you, and your father and I are a little worried. Shen Jingyou looked at her daughter worriedly,
"You have an idea in your own heart, and if you don't tell your parents, we all understand, but we heard Xiaoyi say that your job search over there is not smooth, right?"
"Why does he tell you everything? Lin Yansheng complained dissatisfiedly.
"Xiao Yi is also worried about you, don't blame him. Lin Shengming said,
"He doesn't tell us, we don't know yet. You are a girl, unlike your younger brother, we don't have to worry about Yan Huan's work, he will handle it himself, but you are so far away from us, you don't tell us what plans you have in your heart, and we don't want to ask, I still know it from outsiders today. So, what are your plans, you can tell me and your mother, so that we can rest assured. Lin Yansheng pursed his lips tightly, lowered his head and did not speak.
"Yan Sheng, you speak. Shen Jing couldn't help but be a little anxious and asked.
"Mom and Dad, don't rush her, the more you urge her at this time, the more pressure she will have. Lin Yanhuan in the background stood up, he walked past his parents with his notebook, and said lightly.
Lin Yansheng looked at his younger brother who flashed on the screen gratefully, and felt that his younger brother understood him better at the critical time.
"Forget it, we won't ask you anymore, but you must take care of yourself, we can't help you at work, you make your own plans. It's really not good, it's okay to come back, if you want to break outside, your mother and I also support you, but we only have one request, we must take care of ourselves, you know?" Lin Shengming sighed, looked at his daughter's thin face on the screen, and said seriously.
"Got it, thank you, Mom and Dad. Lin Yansheng said, she was very moved, and her eyes were almost moist.
When she was at home, her parents had said such things to her, but now that she is so far away from home, she suddenly heard it, and her heart felt like an iceberg melting, and she felt moist and warm.
Hanging up the video, she lay down on the bed and sighed heavily. In fact, according to the current situation, she can't afford to support herself, and she gets a lot of manuscript fees for those manuscripts that she receives scattered manuscripts, and it is not a problem to afford her own food and housing, but the question is can she continue like this?
What if one day she can't get the manuscript? The reality is always more skinny than the ideal, she must let go of those big dreams in her heart to plan the future development problems, she doesn't want to soak in those manuscripts that must be drawn all day long to worry about her livelihood, one day she will be polished out of inspiration, and she can't draw anything.
In the layers of pressure, she closed her eyes and fell asleep, and the next day she woke up at dawn, her roommates were still asleep, but she didn't feel sleepy at all.
Turning over and getting out of bed, the breeze blowing in through the screen window brought a touch of coolness, Lin Yansheng simply washed up, and prepared to leave for the library.
While she was still on the way, she received a call from Mu Yi, Lin Yansheng thought that he was still here to persuade him, and he was about to hang up angrily, when he suddenly heard Mu Yi say that he had arrived at the gate of his school and asked her to come out to meet him.
Lin Yansheng was very surprised, he didn't expect him to come to him so early, so he hurriedly hung up the phone, turned around and walked briskly towards the school gate.
Mu Yi stood at the gate of the school, and when he saw Lin Yansheng, he couldn't help but smile on his face, and hurriedly ran towards her and took her into his arms.
Lin Yansheng looked around embarrassedly, broke free from his arms, and asked, "Why didn't you come here without telling me?"
"It's not because I'm worried about you. Mu Yi scratched her nose,
"I've lost so much weight, where is the flesh on my face?" he raised his hand, rubbed Lin Yansheng's face vigorously, and kissed her on the forehead.
"At this time, a lot of people have lost weight, how don't you care about them going. Lin Yansheng pushed him away and said with a smile.
"I don't care what they do, they're not my baby. Mu Yi took her into his arms again and hugged her tightly.
Lin Yansheng didn't struggle anymore, she leaned her head on Mu Yi's shoulder, smelling the refreshing boyish smell coming from him, and felt some relief after the pressure was released.
"Let's go, I'll take you to something delicious. After hugging enough, Mu Yi let go of her and said happily. He seems to have become a child, and Lin Yansheng is his candy, reluctant to eat or put it down, he has to hold it in his hand and never let go to be satisfied.
Lin Yansheng patted the book in his arms and said, "I'm going to the library." ”
"What kind of library did you go to early in the morning, wouldn't your little stomach be hungry?" Mu Yi snatched the book in her arms and said with a smile,
"Eat first, I'll accompany you after eating, and I'll stay with you as long as you want. ”
"If you accompany me, don't you have your own business to do?" Lin Yansheng followed his footsteps.
"It's not like I don't know, everything has been arranged, this period before graduation is my last free time, it's not a waste to use it to play, it's better to come and accompany you. Mu Yi took her hand and said with a smile.
"You. Lin Yansheng looked at him reproachfully,
"Forget it, I won't talk about you. ”
"What are you talking about me, are you happy that I came over to stick to you?" Mu Yi leaned his face to her and kissed her again.
Lin Yansheng squinted at him and said, "I said you were cheeky. ”
"Let me tell you, it's useless to be thin-skinned in this society now, it's better to be thick-skinned. If I'm thin-skinned, can I catch you?" Mu Yi grinned, quickly pecking her on the lips.
"Oh, you've got enough. Lin Yansheng stomped his feet pretending to be angry,
"It is not good for people to see how bad it is to come and go. ”
"Okay, okay, don't kiss, don't kiss. Mu Yi grinned,
"I booked a hotel near your school, I will accompany you here before you graduate, I will accompany you for three meals a day, I can accompany you wherever you want to go, welcome to me if you have anything, my little butler Mu Yi will solve all difficult problems for you!" Lin Yan stopped abruptly and looked at him with a frown,
"You booked a hotel to stay here?"
"yes. Mu Yi looked at her with a pair of innocent big eyes,
"What's wrong?"
"Aren't you wasting money?" Lin Yansheng was really a little angry at this time,
"Besides, I'm not a child, do I need you to look at me like this?"
"It's not. Mu Yi saw that Lin Yansheng was a little angry, so he put away the smiling look on his face,
"I'm not worried about you, I miss you, you won't come back, we haven't seen each other for months. Moreover, the money my dad earned was still given to me after all, and he kept it and bought things in other people's pockets, so that he could see how you could be considered a waste. ”
"You have a point in what you say. Lin Yansheng said,
"You didn't even think to discuss it with me. ”
"Aren't I going to surprise you?" Mu Yi bent down, propped his hands on his knees, and looked at Lin Yansheng's eyes seriously,
"Are you unhappy to see me? Lin Yansheng looked at him with a pitiful look, and his heart couldn't help but soften, but he still said in a serious tone: "No matter what you do in the future, as long as it is related to me, I hope you can discuss it with me." Also, I'll take care of my own affairs, you don't have to worry about it, you just do your own thing. ”
"Why are you so indifferent, we're boyfriend and girlfriend, it's not wrong for me to worry about you. Mu Yi buried his head on Lin Yansheng's shoulder and said pitifully,
"I'm just worried about you, I just want to be by your side, so that I can take care of you, and I can know what you have to know for the first time. I don't want me to be there when you're most helpless, and even if I can't do anything, I can give you a shoulder to lean on. Mu Yi raised his head, held Lin Yansheng's shoulder, and said seriously,
"Isn't it necessary for two people to be together and bear each other's burden?"
"You have a point. Lin Yansheng sighed,
However, no matter who will not accompany another person for a lifetime, a person still has to learn to live alone. ”
"Who said that!" Mu Yi retorted dissatisfiedly,
"If that's the case, then people all over the world don't want to get married and have children. ”
"These are two different things. Lin Yansheng frowned slightly,
"Why don't you understand me?"
"I heard it, I heard it. Mu Yi put his arm around Lin Yansheng's shoulders and walked forward,
"Let's not discuss this, let's go eat first, I'm here early in the morning, and my stomach is almost hungry. Lin Yansheng looked at Mu Yi helplessly, but he could only listen to him.
If you think about it carefully, it seems that they haven't seen each other for a long time, and although they video every day, it's still different from meeting.
He was accustomed to this situation, but he never thought about Mu Yi's feelings, maybe he really missed himself too much and ran over without saying a word.
Lin Yansheng turned his head to look at Mu Yi's side face, his heart was like a rippling lake in the sun, he smiled slightly, and held Mu Yi's hand.
Even so, Lin Yansheng still didn't let Mu Yi interfere in her work, she nested in the dormitory every day to catch up with the draft, and when she received the interview invitation, she had to rush to the interview, every minute of time was full, and she couldn't squeeze out time to accompany Mu Yi at all.
Mu Yi didn't say anything, just ran behind Lin Yansheng's buttocks, buying food and food, and even holding an umbrella to help Lin Yansheng.
The rest of the time, he shrank in the hotel and waited for Lin Yansheng's notice, and by the way, he rushed to catch up with his graduation thesis.
Every time Lin Yansheng went downstairs and saw Mu Yi waiting downstairs, her heart hurt, she persuaded him countless times to let him go back, Mu Yi refused, she had to watch Lin Yansheng arrange everything for himself.
stayed like this for a week, and when Lin Yansheng was about to go out that day, Mu Yi called and asked her to come to the hotel.
"Yan Sheng, come on, I don't think I'll be able to. On the phone, he was panting, extremely weak, and seemed to be seriously ill.
Lin Yansheng was shocked and hurriedly ran towards the hotel where Mu Yi was staying. She knocked on the door for several minutes before Mu Yi came out to open the door, only to see him sweating profusely, one hand on his stomach, and his whole face wrinkled in pain.
"What's wrong with you?" Lin Yansheng hurriedly supported him and sat down on the sofa.
"Does your stomach hurt again?"
"Hmm. Mu Yi snorted and said weakly,
"Myrrh, I can't walk. ”
"You didn't say it earlier!" Lin Yansheng pulled his arm and tried to make him stand up,
"Let's go, I'll take you to the hospital. ”
"No, no, no. Mu Yi hurriedly waved his hand,
"You can help me buy some medicine, I should be fine after taking it. Lin Yansheng was a little at a loss, so he could only listen to his words and go downstairs to buy medicine.
took care of Mu Yi and took the medicine, let him lie on the bed and rest for a while, his face gradually softened, and as soon as he grabbed Lin Yansheng's hand, he groaned: "It hurts me to death!"
"Say, what did you eat that shouldn't be eaten?" Lin Yansheng wiped the sweat from his head and asked angrily.
"I'll just, I'll just eat a hot pot ......," Mu Yi said weakly,
"Who knew it was so spicy......"
"Can't eat spicy food, but still eat spicy?" Lin Yansheng poked his forehead hard,
"It deserves to be like this. ”
"Yan Sheng. Mu Yi looked at her pitifully,
"I'm in pain like this, and you still talk about me. ”
"Do you feel better now?" Lin Yansheng said, seeing Mu Yi nodded, he was relieved.
Originally, she came out today to see Mu Yi, she had been posting her drawings on the Internet platform before, and a brand took a fancy to her painting style and wanted to cooperate with her, and the salary was not low, Lin Yansheng agreed without hesitation.
She was anxious to tell Mu Yi about this, so that Mu Yi could go back quickly, otherwise if it was a few days late, I was afraid that Uncle Mu and Aunt Yu would be in a hurry, in case the blame was on her, it would be bad for her to leave a bad impression on the two old men.
"This is a good thing!" Mu Yi was very happy after hearing this.
"So you don't have to stay here anymore, my business has been taken care of, you should go back. ”
"Can't you do this job anywhere?" Mu Yi thought for a moment and held Lin Yansheng's hand tightly,
"Go back, live at home, don't worry about food and clothing, you still have to find a house or something here, it's a lot of trouble. ”
"That's my business, don't worry about it. ”
"That's what you said. Mu Yi frowned slightly,
"There are so many bad people in society now, how can I rest assured that you live outside alone. ”
"I'm not a kid anymore, Mu Yi. Lin Yansheng smiled helplessly and said,
"I can take care of myself. ”
"Then if you have to stay here, I'll be with you. Mu Yi made up his mind and said firmly.
"What are you doing here?" Lin Yansheng put away his smile and said solemnly,
"You don't go to school here, and you won't be here for work in the future, so listen to me, go back quickly. ”
"Do you want to stay away from me all the time?" Mu Yi didn't care about the stomach pain, sat up, and said anxiously,
"Where is it good here, do you have to stay here? You stay here, we won't see each other for many months, I think you are really by my side, I can take care of you when you are sick, and I can accompany you wherever you go, instead of sitting alone in the room and worrying!" Lin Yansheng let go of his hand and lowered his head.
"If you work here, then I have nothing to say, but now that you have accepted the cooperation, isn't it the same wherever you work?Why don't you go back?" Mu Yi persuaded hard, looking at Lin Yansheng's face seriously, not wanting to let go of any subtle expression on her face.
"It's not the same. After a few seconds of silence, Lin Yansheng said,
"I just want to go out and get a feel for other places. ”
"If you want to go out, I can accompany you to go around the world, I promise you, really, as long as you go back to live. Mu Yi touched her hair and sighed,
"I'm really not at ease with you out there. Lin Yansheng couldn't help but smile when he looked at Mu Yi's concerned expression.
Mu Yi's words seemed to inject a warm pool of water into her heart, making her feel both moved and sad.
Maybe you're too stubborn, and it's okay to compromise appropriately. Lin Yansheng sighed, touched Mu Yi's pale face, and said with a smile: "Forget it, I promise you." ”
"Really?" Mu Yi looked at her in surprise,
"Then when you finish graduating, I'll pick you up!" He stretched out his arms, hugged Lin Yansheng tightly, and said happily,
"I'm so happy to finally be able to stay with you every day, and finally to end this kind of life apart!" Lin Yansheng stroked Mu Yi's back and smiled with him, this hug made her feel full of fulfillment, as if she was holding the whole world in her arms.
