Yuchen's studio is located in the 798 Art District, which is the largest building with a pure white sloping roof, which is three stories high from the outside, but it is actually a one-story structure that is convenient for the creation of large sculptures.

Skillfully entering the password of the gate, Zhou Linuo wrapped a thin coat in the night breeze, walked up the steps lightly, pushed his fingers, and opened the door without closing, the room was pitch black, no lights were turned on, and the only light source came from the moonlight from the skylight above his head.

Zhou Linuo smelled a faint smell of tobacco and alcohol in the air, she closed the door behind her, and was grabbed by a hand, because it was a familiar touch, so she was not frightened.

"Nuo Nuo......" In the dim light, after Yuchen called her in a dumb voice, he pulled her into his arms and kissed her in an irregular manner.

People can feel emotions through physical contact, and Zhou Linuo can see that he is in a mess now.

She silently responded to his pleas, and without resistance, he pressed her to the work table, knocked over the miscellaneous pile of tools and materials, and fell to the ground with a clanging sound, and some plaster experiments simply fell to pieces, but Yuchen seemed to be unconscious, and he didn't care at all, and he called Zhou Linuo's name over and over again as if he was drowning.

After Yuchen finally calmed down, he went to get a wide blanket to wrap the two of them, and lay on the work table looking up at the night sky with only a few stars.

For a long time, there was only the sound of two people breathing lightly in the space, and Zhou Linuo patiently waited for him to speak, and finally after another kiss, Yuchen turned his face and said, "Nuonuo, I left Beijing a few days ago to handle the funeral of my grandfather and grandmother. ”

Zhou Linuo's breathing stagnated for a moment, because it was too sudden, she didn't have time to comfort her, and asked in a tone of surprise and regret that she couldn't hide: "Why is this like this?" All of a sudden, the two of them are gone? ”

"I also think it's too coincidental, it's ridiculous." Yuchen laughed into the air, but the voice was so bitter that the juice flowed out of the melancholy emotion, he said, "Because it was my grandmother's birthday, my grandfather wanted to buy her a bouquet of flowers, walking on the street suddenly had a stroke, fainted, kind passers-by immediately called an ambulance, grandma rushed to the hospital when she heard the news, I heard that the operating room was in the rescue, she was anxious through the door, her heart hurt, and it was gone on the spot." ”

Zhou Linuo couldn't help but raise his hand and touch Yuchen's chest, as if to rub away his indissolvable depression.

"Maybe he sensed something, my grandfather, who was almost successfully rescued at that time, stopped beating at the moment when my grandmother was gone." Yuchen hugged Zhou Linuo with one hand, rubbed his dry eyes with the other, and found that he did not shed tears, but his eyes hurt, he continued, "I rushed back, and everyone advised me not to be sad, because my grandparents are old, and they all say in the local area that they died without suffering anything as soon as they lay down, and they were happy and sad." After a pause, he encouraged himself to smile again, "You say, think about it from a different perspective, is this a romantic ending for them?" ”

"If your grandparents love each other very much, one person taking the first step may really end up for the other." Zhou Linuo thought for a while and nodded seriously, "Well, thinking about it this way, this is a good ending." ”

"My parents are the same, the front foot is gone, the back foot is gone, I think our family may be a gene inherited from generation to generation, people who have loved each other can't live alone......" Yuchen turned sideways, held the back of his head with one hand, and combed her hair with his fingers while staring at Zhou Linuo, and said with a wry smile, "If you leave me, then I will definitely die for various reasons." ”

"What do you want me to say at this point?" Zhou Linuo looked back at him and said, "I won't die just because anyone leaves me, at least I won't go to death myself." ”

"So decisively?" Yuchen smiled lightly, "Are you happy living in this world?" ”

"How many people are happy all the time? Most people are unhappy in their lives, right? Those who are prone to feel happy are either children or fools. Zhou Linuo said, "I am happy occasionally, and for this occasional moment, it is worth living for it." ”

He put his lips to her forehead and asked, "Are you happy with me?" ”

"Okay." Zhou Linuo closed his eyes relaxedly.

After Yuchen leaned down and kissed her, he hugged her tightly into his arms and said, "Nuno, I don't have any family in this world anymore." ”

Zhou Linuo patted him lightly on the back and said, "You are not alone, don't worry, I will try to die a day later than you." ”

"Are you making a promise?" Yuchen stood up, pretended to be surprised and looked at Zhou Linuo and asked, "Are you willing to be with me for the rest of your life?" ”

Zhou Linuo asked rhetorically: "Aren't we friends for life?" ”

Yuchen was stunned for a moment, sat up with a smile, and said while getting dressed, "You're too smart." ”

Zhou Linuo also turned around, fell down from the work table that was larger than the double bed, and asked while sorting out his clothes, "Are you going back to sleep?" I drive. You haven't been back for many days, and they're worried about you. ”

"I can't go back." As soon as the words came out, with a "snap", Yuchen turned on the lights in the studio, and dozens of lights illuminated the entire space fiercely at the same time, as if countless days suddenly tore apart the night, making all the sighs parasitic in the dark disappear without a trace.

After a while, Zhou Linuo was able to adapt to this brightness, her visual fatigue became more and more serious, and she had a great response to the stimulation of light, and after the vague scene gradually became clear, she saw the damaged materials all over the ground, and I don't know how many half-finished sculptures were destroyed by Yuchen, and the tails of animals and human arms were scattered all over the place.

"I'm not satisfied...... Yuchen stood helplessly between the piles of wreckage, kicked the head of an animal with horns on the ground with his toes, and muttered to himself in distraction, "I don't know what to do......

The owner of this studio did not charge Yuchen a penny of rent, but only signed a strategic cooperation contract with him, he provided him with the venue and the creation fund, and after each year, he was also responsible for selling Yuchen's new works during the year, and then took half of the sale price as remuneration, on the contrary, if Yuchen did not produce a finished sculpture after a year, then the studio owner would ask him to pay ten times the compensation he provided.

Zhou Linuo fell into deep thought, in her way of thinking, once the contract is signed, the project process is the process, and no link can be derailed from the schedule, even if the finished project is unsatisfactory, in order to ensure that there is no commercial loss, she will close her eyes and grit her teeth, this is her business consciousness, but Yuchen is an artist, and the most valuable part of him is his paranoid pursuit of perfection, so he can get investment in the industry at any cost - she can't persuade him to make a sculpture to deal with it - so, She could only honestly say, "I can't help it." ”

"Don't take it to heart, don't let me affect your mood." Yuchen waved his hand, picked up a plaster larger than a basketball at his feet, turned around and threw it to the wall, and when he saw it shattered because of the impact, he felt a little relieved, turned around and smiled at Zhou Linuo and said, "My problem, I will find a way to solve it myself." ”

"But I can try to help you talk about extending your contract and give you more time to think about what you want to do." Zhou Linuo walked towards him, and saw his body involuntarily dodging backwards, knowing that his aura at the moment was repelling the surrounding squeezing, so he stopped in place, "Then you can be alone for a while, I'll go back, if you think of anything you need my help with, feel free to find me." With that, she turned decisively and walked away.

"Zhou Linuo!" Yuchen stopped her and said earnestly to her back, "Now I only have you, no matter what, don't leave me." ”

Zhou Linuo turned around and looked at him without saying anything, his eyes rarely showed worry, if Yuchen asked her to stay, she would, but he turned around, faced the wall and said, "You go back." ”

When Zhou Linuo disappeared behind the door, Yuchen lifted the hammer he used to split the stones, and smashed the bio-shaped waste on the ground one by one, and finally only a layer of blue-white ash remained in the entire room.
