Chapter 31: The Cover Character
Liuying suddenly found that she knew very little about Lu Yu, and the only thing she knew about his work was that he was the founder of Muhe, and the rest were almost nothing, even about him, she never seemed to have seriously understood him. She wondered if she was a little incompetent.
"A lot of the scales were temporarily changed at the construction site. Lu Yu said this to Xianyang, and then he said to Liuying, "You didn't ask me. ”
There was a trace of guilt in her heart, as if this was really the case, she had never asked him. From the beginning of their confirmation of the relationship, Lu Yu is the active party, and she is the passive party, he will shush her every day, say some ordinary trivial things to her every day, and say good morning and good night to her every day, but she never seems to take the initiative to do this to him once.
Liuying finished the meal absentmindedly, and at the table, Xian Yang and Wei Xiaoqian took turns to ask Lu Yu various professional questions and express their admiration, and in the end, the meal seemed to be reduced to a lecture, and it was still Lu Yu's home field. His professional and calm appearance when answering their questions made Liuying a little obsessed, and it was only at this time that Liuying realized in his heart that Lu Yu was far more outstanding than he imagined, even more so than he was when he was still "Jianghuo".
After the five of them finished eating, Jing Min stopped Lu Yu when they walked out of the restaurant, she said that she wanted to consult him about something, and hoped to talk to him alone. Jing Min's face was embarrassed, and Lu Yu was inconvenient to refuse, and in the end, the three of them walked back to the company slowly, anyway, the lunch break was extended, so they were not in a hurry.
"I said you're too blind to know your boyfriend's design, but at least it proves that you're not a commercial spy. Wei Xiaoqian jokingly said to Liuying.
Liuying sighed, she was really in no mood to chat with her, so she could only say "um" perfunctorily.
"The last time we were discussing him, you were all in the fugue?"
"Huh, when?" asked Liuhuru when she heard this.
Xianyang replied instead of Wei Xiaoqian: "It's the last issue of "Building", he is the cover character." ”
Liuying recalled for a while, as if there was a discussion about this cover character, but because of the psychological examination report in those two days, Liuying didn't have the heart to care about their discussion, "Do you have that magazine?"
"Yes, I'm in a drawer. ”
"Go back and lend me a look. ”
Wei Xiaoqian raised her forehead and sighed: "With a girlfriend like you, it must be that you have done too much evil in your previous life, and you are too careless." ”
Hotaru nodded in acknowledgement, "What you said makes a lot of sense. ”
Wei Xiaoqian glanced at her, and then climbed up Liuying's shoulder: "But you're too exciting and exciting, let me gossip and gossip, is it Lu Yu chasing you?"
Liuying didn't answer, Wei Xiaoqian continued: "It must be, you all look like you have no love and know what seven emotions and six desires." What does it feel like to be chased by a master?"
Liuying didn't know how to answer, but fortunately Xianyang answered, "Sister Xiaoqian, your envious appearance is about to catch up with the universe." ”
The two fought a few more words, but Liu Ying couldn't really hear it. She was just thinking, even others thought that her girlfriend was too distracted, what did Lu Yu think?
When she returned to the company, Liu Ying immediately went to Wei Xiaoqian to get the last issue of "Building".
The cover is a very casual photo, Lu Yu is not dressed up in a suit and leather shoes, just a very ordinary shirt and jeans, the cuffs of the shirt are pulled up to the elbow, he has a pen in his hand, and draws some simple sketches on the background wall. The first few pages of the magazine are all Lu Yu, and Liuying looks through them carefully, and it talks about how he founded Kiai step by step, and the content is passionate, as much as the usual cover story. Each page contains illustrations, and the buildings shown on these pictures are all by Lu Yu, and Liu Ying can't help but take a closer look, saying that the buildings contain the designer's character, philosophy and beliefs, and Liu Ying wants to interpret his heart through his works.
Xia Midou is right, unconventional, vividly reflected in his works, and this unconventional is based on its simple style, this simplicity is not simply simplifying, is to establish a kind of order in the complex. This is difficult for ordinary designers to control, but Lu Yu is so proficient. The more Liu Ying learned about Lu Yu, the more she felt that he was so radiant that she couldn't take her eyes off him.
At the end of the cover story is an interview, and the first question surprises Hotaru.
The reporter's question was, "Mr. Lu, I heard that your first architectural enlightenment teacher was your father, Mr. Lu Guqing, do you think that you are better than the blue?"
Lu Yu's answer was nothing more than to divert the topic, and he did not answer positively. The reason for Liuying's surprise was Lu Guqing, Lu Yu's father was actually Lu Guqing, a world-class architect, no wonder Lu Yu's attainments in architecture are so high, he has been exposed to it since he was a child, which is probably the reason why his father is extremely strict with him.
Ryuhotaru looked back and forth, "How did you get to the path of architecture, was it influenced by your father?"
"Until I was 12 years old, I was very reluctant to architecture, and it was not until I was 12 years old that I met someone by accident that made me interested in architecture and made it my life's goal. This is Lu Yu's answer.
"It's a bit of fate, I'm curious what kind of person it is, and a world builder like your father?"
She was only 10 years old. A simple sentence blocked the reporter's desire to dig deeper.
Later, there are questions about some of his works, such as what problems they have encountered and how to solve them. Lu Yu answered very officially, and felt that he was not as dedicated as answering Wei Xiaoqian and Xianyang's questions at the dinner table.
Until the last question, the reporter asked: "The last question, I believe many people want to know, whether Mr. Lu's feelings have belonged?"
"Yes, it was fate. ”
Seeing this, Liuying's heart beat violently a few times, and she couldn't calm her mood for a long time, is the person Lu Yu said is herself? She seems to be sure that that person is herself. He arrived at Guiye Courtyard when he was twelve, and she was exactly ten years old that year. They didn't just meet each other, did she forget something important?
Before getting off work, Liu Ying sent a message to Lu Yu: "Can we go to Guiye Courtyard again after work today?"
"Well, I'll pick you up. ”
"Okay, I'll wait for you. ”
On the busy driveway, Lu Yu looked at Liuying beside him and asked curiously, "Why do you suddenly want to go to Guiye Courtyard today?"
Liu Hotaru leaned on the passenger seat and looked ahead: "I forgot some very important things when I was a child. ”
"If you forget, you forget, why do you have to force yourself to remember. ”
"But it's about you, and I've thought about it for a long time with only a vague shadow. "We didn't just see each other when we were kids, right?"
They walked under the old banyan tree, and Lu Yu circled around the old banyan tree and looked at the canopy before saying, "Do you remember how I answered you when you asked me why I wanted to study architecture?"
"Yes. He remembers that architecture has the power to move people's hearts because a model of architecture changes his life, and he hopes that the buildings he designs will give hope to others.
"The model that changed my life was made by you. ”
"What did I do?" Reyutaru was taken aback for the second time today.
"When I was a kid, I didn't like architecture, probably because of my dad, and I didn't want me to live in his shadow all the time, so I never touched anything related to architecture. Until I met you, you were only ten years old at that time, there is no beauty or ugliness in your world, there is no right or wrong in good and evil, I feel that your world is like a paradise, and you live carefree and innocent in the world you constructed. After hearing something about you from the mouths of the aunts, I was even more curious about you, and every day I hid behind this old banyan tree to secretly see what you were doing, I found that you especially like to pile up stones, every time it is different, no matter from the shape, structure or anything else, with a strong architectural model color, I secretly observed your every move, until the fourth day, I couldn't help but finally let you discover me. Lu Yu smiled, "However, you don't know who I am or where I come from, so you have always regarded me as your imaginary friend." ”
"It turned out to be you. Her memories grew clearer, and she always remembered that there was such a person, such a person who told her that she must be a wonderful architect, like a voice in her heart, telling her that this was her goal.
"Later, after we got acquainted, I gave you a question, home. ”
Rejoicing remembered home. That young man, with those light brown eyes, was none other than Lu Yu.
"What touched me the most was not the model, but the look you had when you stacked it, it felt like all your warmth was used brick by brick, and the deep touch on my heart can no longer be described in words. "Since then, I've been determined to study architecture because it's really moving. ”
Liuying quietly looked at the person in front of her, she was finally able to string together the memories of him, and Liuying suddenly laughed, "But why didn't you tell me that you were a real being, so that I thought I had some kind of paranoia." ”
"Aunties say you don't know how to talk to people, so I thought maybe you thought I was someone you imagined, so they would put me in your world and talk to me. ”
Liuying walked towards Lu Yu and stretched out his hand in front of him, "Let's get to know each other again, hello, my name is Gu Liuying." ”
Lu Yu also stretched out his hand and gently held Liuying's hand: "Hello, I'm Lu Yu." ”
Liuying and Lu Yu looked at each other and smiled, Lu Yu seemed to see the little girl standing in front of him fifteen years ago.
