Chapter 757: Life Still Has to Go On
"You kid still know that when you come back, are you addicted to this pigeon, since you put it on me." Looking at Li Yifan who walked in the door, Tan Yu directly put the paintbrush in his hand into the palette and said angrily.
"Old ...... Teacher Tan, it's not right, I can't go to work there, I should call you in time. Li Yifan said apologetically.
Originally, after playing in City A, he promised to go to the art training institution introduced by Lao Tan to give lessons to people, after all, Li Yifan asked Lao Tan to help contact that job, but he was tripped up by Shen Jiayi, and he was busy looking for Og and Zhao Xin'er, and finally it was the day of class, if it wasn't for Lao Tan calling to ask others, he forgot to explain the situation.
"You're embarrassed to say, do you see that the top of my head is not bald enough, or do you think that I usually can't live without you, give me such a play at a critical time, I asked myself if I am better to you than Sisi, how can you be so irresponsible, you know that in the end, the few paintings in your hand, Sisi and I painted a few all-nighters just to catch up with the contract." Lao Tan was angry, but he really needed Li Yifan so he asked Sisi to call and ask Li Yifan about his recent situation.
"Okay, Lao Tan, don't be quick to talk about it for a while, this is a serious matter, haven't all the previous things been solved, if you say so, in the end, it will be me who gets cheap and leaks." Sisi gave Li Yifan a look and said to Tan Yu: "Hurry up and talk about the next game, otherwise why did you call Yifan, this is not the new class of students, there is no such tacit understanding between you and Li Yifan." ”
"Hmph, you know how to help this kid speak, and I don't know what psychedelic soup this kid poured on you." Lao Tan stood up from the easel, crossed his hands on his chest, and said angrily.
"Teacher, don't be angry, I was really a last resort before, but now it's okay, I'm in H City, if you have any help here, call me at any time." Seeing that Tan Yu's language had loosened, Li Yifan hurriedly said softly.
"Who is angry with you, since you are here, I will talk about the competition, I have already designed the first draft, it is still the same as before, pick a few pictures that you like and are interested in, the paint on the drawing board is there, and you can take it yourself." After Lao Tan finished speaking, he pointed to the sample he had created on the table a long time ago, and asked Sisi to take Li Yifan over to see it, and he still put on a cold appearance that a teacher should have.
"I picked these two, these two are designed by me and Lao Tan together, the color scheme is my own choice, macaron color, I was ...... when I created" Sisi said, telling Li Yifan about other design concepts, good art works, not just pictures, only by understanding the story behind it, the creator's thoughts when creating, can be not limited to the surface.
"This time I am in the name of the team, don't say that the teacher just asks you to help, does not give you benefits, the salary of the painting is given, the theme has just been told to you by Sisi, leaving you the place for two paintings, you can conceive by yourself." Lao Tan said, sat back in his place, picked up the pen and continued to create on the drawing board in front of him.
"Hey, otherwise Lao Tan is partial to you, this time not only changed his personal name to the three of us, but also sent the painting you painted before to the Bijia Gallery in City A, and the other party said that he is willing to sign a part-time painter with you, as long as you have a work, you are willing to accept it all." Sisi looked at Li Yifan and said excitedly.
"I know that your kid is busy, and I don't know when I will find time, so I told people that it is a part-time job, and you can paint some pictures if you have nothing to do, and the price there is still very reasonable for you, and you can sign it, if you win another prize in this competition, the price of your kid's paintings will also double or two." Lao Tan continued his work.
After picking out the paintings to be drawn in the next competition, Li Yifan took two blank drawing boards, tied the painting tools he put here together, tied them to the board car, and after thanking Lao Tan, he went back to the dormitory first.
"Drawing?" Li Yifan looked back at the retro-smelling office building behind him, if it wasn't for the problem of livelihood, he would have forgotten his dream of being a painter.
And now, the supernumerary internship quota arranged by Shen Jiayi for him in the police station has come down, and he can get the basic internship salary next month, and his working hours are still free, so what about the next, relying on the reward of being able to see the death of others and providing clues, and the internship work of the police station, and give up his dream from childhood to adulthood?
Coming out of the dormitory, Li Yifan, who was strapped to the computer and the oil painting frame cart, walked very slowly, he looked at the grass and trees on the road from the dormitory building to the school gate, there were too many memories around him, and there were too many dreams that he couldn't let go.
Once his idea was to be a person like Lao Tan, simply to be a teacher, to take students in painting classes on weekends and winter and summer vacations, to paint some paintings and sell them to galleries in his spare time, and to have time to go to various places to collect style, and his friends around him are also doing art and creative work, so that life is not rich but also comfortable, but now he has an additional identity, and this identity gives him a sense of mission, and that kind of responsibility makes him difficult to refuse.
After getting off the long bus, Li Yifan dragged the things of the cart and sat in the park near the community, thinking about his next life, wanting to have both, but he was afraid that he would not be able to do both, because both of these things require enough energy and concentration.
Thinking about it, he inexplicably began to fantasize about the future of himself and Zhao Xin'er, as well as the picture of every time he met Zhao Xin'er, from the beginning, to the meeting in the hospital that day.
That day, Zhao Xin'er didn't know how to use a wheelchair, looking at the panic and anxiety when the woman holding two children in front of her was about to bump into her, it was the first time Li Yifan saw Zhao Xin'er with such an embarrassed expression, and he couldn't help laughing.
"I almost hit someone at the time, but the wheelchair has been slippery these days." Li Yifan smiled and felt the breeze blowing in the park with the original smell of grass and trees, which made people feel a little comfortable, and there seemed to be nothing to worry about. "Why do you think so much, as long as you don't see anyone in an accident, you can draw with peace of mind."
Li Yifan stood up, pushed the cart next to him and prepared to go back, when suddenly a picture flashed in his mind, a child in his arms, and the appearance of a woman appeared in his mind. "yes, how did I forget, I saw two children at that time......"
"Yifan, what's wrong with the call?" Han Shuo, who was writing a closing report, picked up the phone and asked.
"Han Shuo, I remember where I should have seen that child......" Li Yifan said to Han Shuo on the phone.
