Chapter 2: Delusional attempts to disturb
The mobile phone was randomly thrown on the seat of the car by the owner, Huo Jingyu took out a set of formal clothes from the trunk and changed it in the car, and then went to buy a rose.
After driving for about 20 minutes, he drove into a small road, and after passing through the path, the two sides suddenly opened up, and what caught his eye was a single-family building with a sense of age.
Xu is people inside heard the movement, and a big man with a scarf staggered out, and when he saw that it was Huo Jingyu, he grinned at the corners of his mouth buried by his beard and shouted: "Brother Huo!" ”
Huo Jingyu walked two steps faster symbolically and Li Kuitian came to a hug, and suddenly smelled a hint of something wrong, he looked at the hand-woven scarf that changed from lotus pink to dirty pink, and said helplessly: "Brother Tian, you ...... this time It smells like I'm a little bit upset. ”
Li Kuitian laughed, not embarrassed at all, "It's important to catch up with the painting, I just took a job not long ago." ”
"How many more days did you stay this time?"
Li Kuitian touched his head and thought about it, "It's almost two weeks." ”
"Don't patronize the painting, can you stand it as a sister-in-law?" Huo Jingyu thought of the woman who was virtuous on the outside but was actually domineering and difficult.
"Your sister-in-law is on a business trip and will only come back the day after tomorrow. It's rare to give yourself a holiday, she asked me to wash this and that every day, and last time she let me take it off to enter the house, how can I stand it, this cold day! Li Kuitian said pitifully, but Huo Jingyu did not pity him, but was glad that there was such a sister-in-law, so he didn't attract a miasma here.
"You explain my business, two people came two days ago, both are young men, I think one is okay, so I asked him to come over for a retest, and I specially asked you to check it." Li Kuitian said.
"What time did you ask him?"
"It's already painted on the inside."
There is a smell of lead particles and ink molecules mixed in the western-style building, which is not particularly pungent. There is no furniture as far as the eye can see, only a large, half-finished oil painting leaning against the interior wall, surrounded by piles of paint.
Li Kuitian pointed to the boy who was hunched over and curled up in the pile of paint, and said, "Don't look at him as small, his ability is really not small." ”
The boy didn't notice that there was someone behind him, immersed in his own world, and he used skillful lines to draw a unique picture, which was in line with Huo Jingyu's recruitment conditions, and even far exceeded the standard.
Huo Jingyu took Li Kuitian aside and said, "Directly let him sign for a long time." After thinking about it, he said: "If he just wants to work part-time, send him to the west of the city, in short, he can stay for a long time." ”
"And is he going to continue painting?"
Huo Jingyu looked at the boy again, "Let him draw, let him take it back after painting." ”
Li Kuitian also wanted Huo Jingyu to point out his works, but before he could say anything, the person had already left the line of sight. He stared at his half-finished product and sighed heavily, scratching his head, as if there were snowflakes falling. Otherwise, he'd better go take a shower.
Huo Jingyu returned to the apartment building and met the landlord Liao Ke at the gate, she was dressed smartly, her earlobe was always inlaid with a pearl, and her beautiful face made it impossible to see her actual age.
"Xiao Huo, you came just in time, sister begs you something." Liao Ke waved to him with an apologetic face.
Huo Jingyu saw that her face was embarrassed, and asked, "Sister Liao doesn't plan to rent it?" His words hit Liao Qi's heart, and she looked at him even more apologetically.
"Did you encounter any difficulties?"
Liao Ke usually treats him well and often invites him to dinner at home, so he asks more in-depth.
"That's not it, it's my godson who is going to study here for a while, and wants to rent a room with me, but only the first floor is vacant, and I don't feel at ease with a child letting him live on the first floor, so I want to discuss with you, can you vacate the house you used downstairs to put the painting and rent it to him first?"
Liao Ke observed his face, she knew that her request was a bit difficult, and said cautiously: "About a year, I will return the rest of the rent to you, and I will ...... you live now."
"Yes." Huo Jingyu readily agreed.
Liao Ke was overjoyed, "Really? ”
"Really."
"Then thank you, Xiao Huo."
"It's okay, a little favor." Huo Jingyu smiled on his face, and pulled out the hand she was holding without a trace.
"What about your paintings...... Why don't you move it to my yard, there is a small warehouse where tools are stored, and I can just fit it in. ”
Huo Jingyu politely refused, it was better for him to keep those paintings by himself.
Sending away Liao Ke, who had a big stone falling from his heart, Huo Jingyu just walked into the house, and saw Cheng Ye standing in front of the fish tank with a straw in his mouth to intimidate his favorite fish. He opened his mouth to scold, and he felt amused to see her jumping up and down in fright.
Huo Jingyu asked her to wipe the fish tank, carried the roses she bought into the guest room, and locked the door.
He opened the curtains, revealing a large white wall with no windows. He took out the key and opened a small door that blended with the white wall, bent down and walked in, a faint fragrance came to his face, the space behind the door was long, and the walls were full of white ceramic flowers.
There was a small triangular table in the far corner, and there was an empty picture frame on the table with gold paint dropped, and there was a long-withered flower next to the picture frame, he replaced it with this fresh rose, stared at the empty photo frame with an expressionless face, and in just a few seconds, he turned around and went out.
The two walked around the furniture city, Cheng Ye chattered all the way, disgusted with this and that, this is too fancy and that carved is too earthy, in fact, what she dislikes is the price behind it. In the end, she dragged Huo Jingyu to the furniture city next door.
The world behind the revolving door was noisy and crowded, with more than ten times the flow of people.
Huo Jingyu frowned and pushed the car, watching her linger among the piles of big sale goods, fortunately she was not short and easy to find.
"Jing Yu! This bowl is only nine pieces a piece, so cheap! Cheng Ye picked up a big pink bowl and showed it to him, "Wow, this mug is also cheap, buy two." ”
Huo Jingyu pushed the car and followed behind her with difficulty, looking at the pots and pans she put into the car, the colors were gorgeous and unsystematic. Seeing that she was once again obsessed with bedding, he kindly reminded her: there is no bed, no sofa, no table and chairs at home, let her divide her priorities.
Cheng Ye proudly raised his head to look at the tables and chairs, "I used the money from the cabinet you saw before to buy half of the furniture, how cost-effective!" ”
Huo Jingyu shook his head disapprovingly, "That cabinet can be used for decades, and it is no problem to pay attention to maintenance for hundreds of years, and you will not be able to break it in five years." ”
Cheng Ye retorted: "You won't get tired of looking at the same thing for decades?" And these are so beautiful, they fit my aesthetic very well. ”
"It's superficial." Huo Jingyu sighed.
"Just your thoughts, you think!" Cheng Ye stretched out his hand to poke his waist, wanting to tickle him, but who knew that he couldn't move and was boring.
After a while, waiting for Huo Jingyu to wash his hands, Cheng Ye didn't know how to pass the long line and successfully bought a cone.
Huo Jingyu frowned and couldn't help but preach: "Have you finished your routine?" ”
"Not yet."
"That's late, and you still eat ice, do you want to drink Chinese medicine again?"
"I'll just take a bite." Cheng Ye opened his mouth aggrievedly and took a big sip, sweet and cold.
Huo Jingyu was defeated and took the cone she handed over with a missing spire. If she was licked, he would not hesitate to throw it in the trash.
"Are you free tomorrow?" Cheng Ye asked.
"Nope." Huo Jingyu replied resolutely.
"And where am I staying today?"
"Stay at your house."
"Okay, stay at your house." Cheng Ye said with a smile.
"Stay in the house I let you live in."
"Okay, stay at your house." Cheng Ye continued to laugh.
"Then let's live in the sewers."
Cheng Ye quit, "Didn't you say that there was nothing in that house?" ”
"The mattress will arrive later."
"No pillows."
"I'll give you a bed."
Cheng Ye made a killer move, "What should I do when I take a shower, is there a film on the bathroom window?" ”
Huo Jingyu was silent for a moment and said, "You can turn off the light and wash." ”
No matter what Cheng Ye said, it was useless to wear out her mouth, Huo Jingyu still sent her and her luggage to the apartment in the west of the city, and told her to clean up before leaving.
Huo Jingyu promised to quit the rented house, and the painting had been vacated by him, so he called a truck to transport it to the western-style building and asked Li Kuitian to sign for it.
A string of regular old-fashioned bells rang, Huo Jingyu connected it, and a strange female voice with a trailing tail sounded in his ears. He was slightly stunned, asked the other party what he meant, and hung up the phone without waiting for the other party to finish. After he cleaned up the house for the new tenant, the call came again and hung up on him again.
For several days in a row, Huo Jingyu blocked several harassing phone calls. His social circle is very simple, and not many people know his phone number, and he is always at home, in the studio, and in the supermarket. A face popped into his mind.
Cheng Ye, who had been comfortable in his new home for a few days, got into trouble again.
Huo Jingyu drove to the door of Cheng Ye's studio, carrying large bags of snacks in his hands.
The little assistant sitting at the door immediately greeted people with a smile and took the things.
"Where's Cheng Ye?" Huo Jingyu looked around the room, only her music partner, but she didn't see her.
The lean man with reggae pigtails said, "Library." ”
Huo Jingyu was surprised, library?
The assistant said: "Sister Ye said that she was looking for inspiration, and she is probably creating." ”
As soon as Cheng Ye returned to the studio, she was told by the assistant that Huo Jingyu had come, and she remembered to look at her mobile phone, took it out and saw that there were two missed calls.
Huo Jingyu did not leave, but stayed in the hanging garden. Cheng Ye's voice floated into his ears very three-dimensionally, he sneered, threw away the coffee in his hand, strode out and grabbed her collar and took it to the door.
"Oops! Who is it?! Cheng Ye stood on tiptoe in a panic to keep his balance.
Huo Jingyu turned her around, "Your uncle." ”
Within the second of recognizing his voice, Cheng Ye sifted through the unreliable things she had done in her mind at the speed of light, and she said calmly, "Come to me?" But I'm very busy today! We'll make an appointment next time. She hurriedly turned around and took a few steps before pausing.
Huo Jingyu is tall, and her hands are naturally long, and grabbing her ponytail fluttering in the air is not a technical thing.
"You actually did such a cruel thing to me, I'm a woman!" Cheng Ye was distressed to protect the precious ponytail and was carried by him all the way to the car.
In the car, Huo Jingyu held up three photos to show her.
Cheng Ye stared at the photo and pouted puzzledly, "You want a blind date?" This nice spot in the middle. ”
"Explain."
"Huh? The eyes are bigger, and the double eyelids are not so fake......"
Huo Jingyu narrowed his eyes, "You don't know?" ”
"I don't know."
Huo Jingyu stared at her face, didn't let go of any micro-expressions, pulled out one of the photos and said, "This woman, called me at four o'clock yesterday afternoon and said that she liked me." ”
He drew another one, "This one said I had won the jackpot and asked me to provide her with an address, saying that he would send it to me." ”
"As for her......" he pointed to the rest of the photo, "I've seen it on your phone." ”
Cheng Ye gasped, made a ceremonial gesture respectfully, and said categorically: "I really don't know them, you said that the one you saw in my mobile phone, I have no impression, I swear!"
Huo Jingyu knew that she wouldn't admit it immediately, so he asked for her mobile phone, clicked on the social software and entered a string of numbers, and then threw it to her, "You should have an impression now, right?" ”
Cheng Ye looked at the friend information that he exported from his mobile phone, and his wandering eyes lingered back and forth between the two photos, this person is trying to repair too much!
"If you still don't know each other, I wouldn't mind helping you reminisce." Huo Jingyu clicked on this woman's social circle, and a familiar girlfriend's perspective photo popped up on the screen, accompanied by a line of enigmatic text: The baby's side face, I can't see enough, love and love......
Cheng Ye shouted injustice in his heart, his head shook like a rattle, "This photo was indeed taken by me, but I don't know why it flowed out!" She defended herself with a sad face: "If I sent it, what am I trying to do?" Shall I sell it for money? It doesn't sell for a lot of money! After speaking, she looked at Huo Jingyu and immediately changed her words: "But it's not necessarily, it's a face-looking society now." ”
Under Huo Jingyu's scrutinizing gaze, Cheng Ye forcibly proved his innocence, "I really don't know this woman, maybe it was a friend of a former friend or something, and she added it on a whim." ”
"Okay." Huo Jingyu threw the photo and mobile phone back to her.
Cheng Ye hesitated for a few seconds and asked, "Do you believe me?"
The beeping sound in the car kept stopping, and Huo Jingyu said, "Seat belt." ”
Cheng Ye fastened his seat belt, carefully observed his expression, folded his hands and laughed dryly, and leaned over pretending to be very cute, "Then where are we going?" ”
"Complete the first step of your apology."
Cheng Ye looked dazed, and shouted after a few seconds: "Don't you believe me?!" ”
"Yes."
"Then why do I have to apologize?"
"You're wrong for secretly filming."
