Chapter Seventy-Three: Confess to Xiao Yuanchen
On the day of the competition, the venue of the International Art Competition was like a garden full of flowers.
Cao Aiqian was dressed in a simple white fragrance, and walked into the venue as light as a spring breeze. She felt a strong artistic vibe that complemented the atmosphere of the venue.
Inside the venue, under the high ceiling, countless colorful works of art are hung. They radiate a mesmerizing brilliance against the backdrop of the lights.
Contestants gather to discuss their inspirations, or sit alone in the corner and polish their work. Their faces are filled with their own breath, as if they are telling their own growth stories.
Cao Aiqian looked around, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this stage was so vast.
She felt her own insignificance, but at the same time firmly believed in her talent and dreams. She knows that this competition is a rare opportunity and a challenge.
The competition is an improvisational painting on the spot, and there is no fixed theme, and at the beginning of the competition, she gently walks to her place, spreads out the canvas, and picks up the brush.
Her hands trembled slightly, but there was a determined glint in her eyes, and she knew that this was the only chance to win and go to Sengkang University.
Time passed imperceptibly, and Cao Aiqian's paintings gradually took shape. She depicts every detail of the venue with delicate brushstrokes, and the demeanor and emotions of each contestant are skillfully captured and presented on the canvas.
Her paintings not only show her unique understanding of art, but also her perception of youth and growth.
When Cao Aiqian finished the last stroke, she raised her head and looked at her work, her heart full of emotion.
She handed the completed drawings to the judges, then stood up and left the room.
The results of the game will not be known until the next morning.
She walked to the gate of the venue, looked up at the clear blue sky, and took a deep breath.
She knew she had to succeed this time! Recalling the work she had just drawn, she smiled.
"Ai Qian!"
Just as she walked out of the venue, there was a warm voice around her.
Hearing the familiar name, her body stiffened suddenly.
She turned around slowly, only to see a boy staring at her with a puzzled face.
The bright black eyes were a little sad, making her heart twitch a few times inexplicably.
"Yuanchen?"
"Ai Qian, come on." Yuanchen spoke extremely quickly, with a hint of anxiety, and pulled her around a corner.
Seeing Yuanchen's anxious appearance, Cao Aiqian's heart swelled with doubts.
She chuckled, "What's wrong?" "
Yuanchen's lips moved, as if he was a little hesitant. His brows furrowed, as if he had made up his mind, "Ai Qian, I have something to ask you." "
"What's the matter?"
"I ......," Yuanchen said in a slurred manner, "I like you!" "
"What?"
Xiao Yuanchen's words were like a bombshell, and Cao Aiqian was dizzy, and for a while, she forgot how to react.
"Yuanchen. You...... Don't make a fuss...... I ......" Her heart was flustered, and her language seemed very messy.
"I didn't make a fuss, I couldn't understand my heart before, but until today..."Xiao Yuanchen fell into deep thought.
Early in the morning, Xiao Yuanchen received an invitation letter from Chen Luoxing who invited him to her birthday party, and specially explained that Cao Aiqian was also invited.
He didn't think much of it and agreed directly, but when he arrived at the meeting place, he was dumbfounded.
The hall of the gathering is very warm and romantic, with a bouquet of roses placed on one side, exuding a fragrant smell. A pink veil floats, as if announcing happiness to the world.
Next to the sofa, there are two glasses of red wine, exuding a charming aroma.
Such a beautiful and warm scene, but this is not a birthday, but like someone is about to have a wedding here.
As soon as he arrived, the music in the venue stopped abruptly, and all the lights were focused on him.
Chen Luoxing walked towards this side in a small dress.
Looking at Chen Luoxing's expression, Xiao Yuanchen was confused.
".. It's..."
"Yuanchen, you're finally here?" Chen Luoxing pursed his mouth slightly, revealing a sweet smile.
Who can resist such an angelic appearance?
"Where's Ai Qian?" Xiao Yuanchen asked.
"Yuanchen, don't you still understand my intentions? Mention her at my banquet? "
"What about Ai Qian? She... Didn't she come? Xiao Yuanchen's face became extremely embarrassed.
"There's something wrong with her..."A hint of conspiracy flashed in Chen Luoxing's eyes.
"That's... I'll go back first. "
"Yuanchen!"
Xiao Yuanchen turned around and was about to leave, when his arm was suddenly grabbed.
He turned around sharply and met Chen Luoxing's pitiful eyes.
"Yuanchen, don't you run away from me anymore, okay? I really like you, I like it very much. "
"......"
Xiao Yuanchen stared at Chen Luoxing blankly, unable to say a word.
"I know I'm not good enough, but I'll try."
"......"
"Please, don't push me away again, okay?" Chen Luoxing's tears flowed down.
"I'm sorry..."
"I don't want your apology."
Chen Luoxing cried and pounced on Xiao Yuanchen, holding Xiao Yuanchen firmly with both hands.
His embrace was so warm, so comfortable, as if she had found support.
Xiao Yuanchen pushed her away, but Chen Luoxing grabbed her wrist.
His wrist was held tightly by her, and it was painful, and he wanted to shake off her hand, but Chen Luoxing held on to it and refused to let go.
He didn't know what she wanted to do, so he had to whisper: "Let go!" "
"Don't let go! I love you! Yuanchen! Chen Luoxing cried.
"In that case, that question can only show my heart, I have always regarded you as a friend." Xiao Yuanchen said coldly.
"......" Chen Luoxing was stunned.
"So, you don't have to!" Xiao Yuanchen struggled to break free of Chen Luoxing's hand.
Chen Luoxing staggered back a few steps and fell on the sofa.
"Why... No... You obviously hate the previous Cao Aiqian too! Chen Luoxing stared at Xiao Yuanchen incredulously, "Which point am I worse than her?" "
"You also said that I only hate her in the past, not now."
Xiao Yuanchen's words were like a thorn piercing Chen Luoxing's heart.
Her body trembled, her face pale as paper, and tears welled up in her eyes.
She didn't want to admit it, but she had to admit it.
"I... Hahaha..."Chen Luoxing laughed out of control, "It's a pity, you're just wishful thinking like me." "
"......"
She suddenly stopped laughing and looked at Xiao Yuanchen.
Her eyes were filled with tears, and she had a miserable smile on her face, which was heartbreaking to watch.
"Luo Xing, calm down your emotions, you can't force emotional matters, you will meet better!" Xiao Yuanchen comforted.
"I don't need anything better." Chen Luoxing muttered, "The only thing I need is you, you know?" I've loved you for five whole years! I've kept this feeling in my heart since I was a junior high. "
Chen Luoxing didn't understand that he had a long and good time with Xiao Yuanchen before, until Cao Aiqian appeared, the original Cao Aiqian was unruly and looked deviant, fortunately, Xiao Yuanchen didn't like such a girl.
It wasn't until that time that Cao Ai drowned that everything seemed to have changed.
"Yuanchen, you think you like her, but has she ever liked you? You are in love with Cao Aiqian now, but is she still the girl who once rushed with me to love you? When Chen Luoxing said this, he almost shouted out.
This sentence was like a sharp knife piercing Xiao Yuanchen's heart.
Xiao Yuanchen's face suddenly turned pale.
Yes, he never thought about this, he thought that Cao Aiqian's feelings for him should still be as much as he liked him as before.
But this feeling is very light, and he feels that his thoughts are wrong.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Chen Luoxing laughed a few times with sourness: "But what Cao Aiqian gave you to me was what she gave me, hahaha." ”
Xiao Yuanchen's heart was shocked, his eyes flashed with anger and shock, he couldn't believe that the girl he loved would treat him like this and let him be given to others.
At this moment, Xiao Yuanchen's heart seemed to be broken.
A trace of bitterness flashed on his face: "You are talking nonsense! "
"Heh, listen to this!" Chen Luoxing released the conversation with Cao Aiqian at Haitian Restaurant last time.
