Chapter 45: Love Rises and Falls (13)
On Saturday, the work of the library seemed to be busier than usual.
Yao Qingtao placed the display board of this month's book borrowing ranking that she had made not long ago in various conspicuous positions, she clapped her hands, crossed her waist and looked at it for a while, and then looked back at the "Teacher He" at the service desk not far away.
At this time, the other party was dealing with a few female classmates who were borrowing books.
Speaking of which, this teacher He in the library has been a lot busy recently, Since he posted that post on the forum, it has attracted many students to come to see him, although there is no specific statistics, but according to Yao Qingtao's naked eye, female students account for the vast majority.
Although many of them came to see him in the name of borrowing books or exchanging and discussing problems, Yao Qingtao didn't have to think about it to guess the little abacus in the hearts of these girls.
Don't look at it anymore, Yao Qingtao continued to do things, stacked the newly arrived newspaper on the shelves, waited for her to do the work at hand, and lazily returned to the waiter's desk, the previous girls had already left, and only He Tianran was standing inside.
The man's posture was tall, perhaps because there was nothing to do around him, he did not sit down in a hurry, but took off his glasses, wiped them with a sigh, and then lifted the frame, aimed the lenses at the sun, and tilted his head, as if to observe whether the lenses were clean.
The smell of adult ink wafted from the books and papers in the library, and the winter sun shone through the high windows, and then passed through the cracks of the wooden shelves, and sprinkled on the ground to become mottled patches, all of which brought a quiet, warm, and tired atmosphere in front of me.
And He Tianran, who was in this atmosphere, put on his glasses again, and was about to turn his head, Yao Qingtao had already come back to his senses.
She walked into the service desk, sat down and was silent for a while, then asked casually:
"Teacher He, why have you been wearing glasses in the past few days? Are you short-sighted? ”
He Tianran said with a smile: "It's not like you have to face the computer every day, all of them are equipped with a pair of anti-radiation lenses, and there is no prescription." ”
"That's it, by the way, the other day you recommended me that the director is a movie by Hirokazu Kore-eda, I came down to watch it after I went back to the dormitory, although the plot is very bland, but it's unexpectedly good!"
He Tianran was stunned: "Really?" Have you watched them all, or have you deliberately picked a few to watch? ”
"I watched the "Sea Street Diary", and while I watched it, I sighed that Masami Nagasawa is so beautiful, and the picture of the movie is also very clean, and the life in the movie is also a beautiful model, and the kind of family affection revealed between the characters is ......"
Yao Qingtao's mouth chattered, He Tianran listened quietly, nodded in agreement for a while, and added some overlooked details for her.
It's not uncommon for a girl to find someone to talk about movies.
It's just that when a girl who didn't have much interest in movies in the past captures some information from a boy's words, goes back to make up for it, and takes the initiative to create common topics, this matter is very delicate......
"So, when I watched this movie, I hoped that this kind of gentle and restrained parents would continue to play in the same short time, I really didn't expect this kind of bland......"
"Sister Peach."
"Huh? You say, Mr. He. ”
Just when Yao Qingtao was still reminiscing about the plot, He Tianran interrupted at the right time.
He feigned embarrassment, unable to speak: "We will take a lunch break at noon...... I'm not coming back...... It's no problem for you to be alone in the afternoon......"
"No problem, it's not your first time."
Yao Qingtao responded generously.
She still wanted to continue the topic of the movie just now, but she listened to He Tianqi Ai Ai again:
"What's that, Sister Peach...... You use your eyes to help me taste, my dress today, no problem......"
He Tianran stood up, took a step back, and pushed his glasses.
Yao Qingtao, who found out about the situation, paused for a while, took a good look, and then said, "Hiss...... He Tianran, what makes you so nervous today? Isn't it time to meet the girls in the afternoon? Cao Aiqing? ”
The junior, who had always been calm and usually mature and old-fashioned, seemed to nod shyly at this moment.
Yao Qingtao "tsk" a few times, when it was ridicule, and then laughed: "Not bad!" Baseball shirts with sweatshirts, classics never go out of style, Mr. He, don't be confident, in fact, your usual clothes are very good, it's really much better than a friend of the opposite sex I know! ”
With that, she turned around and began to sort through the data on her computer.
The topic of the movie did not continue.
"Okay, with Sister Peach's evaluation, I'm stable today."
He Tianran sat down again and solemnly said.
"Come less! Hey, Mr. He, have you finished the movies in late autumn? Can you add a stopper? ”
"Okay, Sister Peach, what do you want to see?"
"Iwai Shunji's "Love Letter", hum, senior sister, I am also a literary person, it was this movie that made me full of yearning for library work, and Kashiwahara Chong will always be my male god."
"Yo, I can't see it, Sister Peach, it turns out that you are also a nymphomaniac, you can, satisfy you!"
"Ouch, our teacher He is going on a date in the afternoon, and this person is starting to talk differently!"
……
……
At the same time, the Faculty of Architecture.
As we all know, the School of Architecture of the University of Hong Kong is the most artistic and aesthetic building in the entire university town, which is an indisputable fact, and even art schools such as the Academy of Fine Arts and the Film School next door have to be a little behind.
However, anyone who has been to the classroom of the School of Architecture, especially the studio, will not give people the first impression of art or beauty, but a messy, sloppy, and messy feeling.
You can't say it's dirty, because you don't know if it's rubbish, or if it's a student studying architecture, it's any kind of sketch paper, drawing paper, sulfuric acid paper, engineering drawings, wood, plastic, acrylic board, and you don't know if it's rubbish, or if it's the materials that some student needs to use in architecture......
And because it's a weekend, there aren't many people in the first place, so it looks even more chaotic.
"Ai Qing, do you still have your model glue?"
"Yes, give."
In a mountain of paper boards, Shen Qiuxu and Cao Aiqing are dividing labor to make a model of a flowing water villa.
If there is any obvious difference, it is nothing more than that the learning is deeper, the difficulty is greater, and some drawings and designs have reached the professional level of a qualified designer, or even above.
It stands to reason that Cao Aiqing, who is an undergraduate, should not meddle in the model homework of graduate students, but Shen Qiuxu's tutor also happens to be Cao Aiqing's teacher, and the reason why they complete the homework together is because Cao Aiqing's professionalism in the past three years has far exceeded the level of an undergraduate, so after receiving the teacher's approval, Cao Aiqing occasionally takes classes with his classmates in the graduate class.
After taking the model glue, Shen Qiuxu looked at Cao Aiqing for a while, during the work, the girl's long hair was directly coiled behind her head, and it was fixed with a needle pen, plus her loose camel-colored knitted cardigan and a white T-shirt tied into the corner of her waist, she looked as soft and warm as ever, like an elf coming out of the forest.
"Look at you, didn't you stay up late yesterday? I heard Mr. Li say that your class still has pictures to draw. ”
Shen Qiuxu took the model glue and couldn't help asking.
The Department of Architecture is notoriously rolled, and it has become a norm that the lights in the studio go out at almost three o'clock every night.
"Hmm~ It's up, but I went back at eleven o'clock yesterday, and if it's late, I won't be able to get up this morning."
Speaking of this, Cao Aiqing yawned, she was not sleepy, but when she talked about this, she subconsciously felt it.
"By the way, I have something ......"
Shen Qiuxu put down the glue in his hand, turned around, picked up his backpack from the table and rummaged for a while, took out a beautifully packaged essence gift box, he handed it over and said:
"This is for you, hydrating and moisturizing, I heard that it can also whiten and brighten something, I don't know very much, but I consulted a few friends of the opposite sex, and they said that it was right to send it."
Cao Aiqing was taken aback, and hurriedly excused himself:
"Ah, Brother Qiuxu, you're breaking the bank, I have these, I don't need this......"
Shen Qiuxu waved his hand up and down, and said with a smile: "Take it, I can't use this as a big man, don't you want to be more expensive." ”
Cao Aiqing looked embarrassed, looked at the man opposite for a few seconds, and asked:
"How...... Do you want to give me something all of a sudden? ”
Shen Qiuxu scratched his head: "Ai Qing, you have been helping me since I entered school this year, although this is Teacher Chen's arrangement, but you have indeed helped me a lot, I am very grateful...... I'm ashamed to say that although I am your senior, I am also a few years older than you, but ...... Well, sometimes I'm not as good as you, and you have taught me a lot of things in turn, you can take it, this is a little bit of my heart. ”
"Don't say that, Brother Qiu Xu, follow you seniors with social experience to take classes, I am also learning...... I appreciate your kindness, but your things ...... I really can't ask for it. ”
Faced with Cao Aiqing's rejection again, Shen Qiuxu did not show great distress, but asked seriously:
"Is it because of the previous rumors that made you a little bit of a cup?"
Cao Aiqing shook his head: "No......"
"Then don't worry, even if you don't want this thing, I won't embarrass you, it's a big deal that I can sell it on the idle fish, and I can return to blood."
Such a realistic statement made both of them laugh.
Shen Qiuxu put away the gift box, didn't force it, and said, "That'...... I'll treat you to a meal at noon, and thank you for helping me make a model. ”
Cao Aiqing was stunned.
"Why, that's not going to work?"
The girl shook her head again: "I'm sorry, Brother Qiu Xu, I made an appointment today." ”
"Yes...... Mr. He? ”
"Hmm."
……
……
The time, before I knew it, had come to noon.
The road from the library to the seventeenth cafeteria took almost half an hour.
He Tianran's mind came up with many memories that he had experienced with Cao Aiqing before.
For a while, he thought that the Seventeenth Canteen was Cao Aiqing's favorite canteen, because that canteen would sell some Western desserts; After a while, I thought about what I should say when we met, whether it would be different from usual......
The road under my feet is getting closer and closer, but my feet are walking slower and slower.
He Tianran knew very well that he was actually shameless in the face of that beautiful and innocent Cao Aiqing......
And while he was thinking wildly, in his ears, he heard someone call his name from a distance:
"Natural~!"
He suddenly looked up, and at the front of the road, in front of the cafeteria, there was a girl standing there, with one hand behind her back and the other high on the top, smiling and waving at him.
Today, the sun is extraordinarily thick, as if it is about to melt the world, and the man, who is no longer a teenager, suddenly stands in place, not daring to move, because once his body moves, his eyes seem to tremble and cry......
He knew that in front of him, there was the best sunshine in the world, and the eternal sun was like a pity, and many rays of light fell on her.
She had disappeared in the glow of the setting sun, and what accompanied her was the youthful picture that made He Tianran stand at this moment, and she would be in a trance for a while.
