42 Chapter 42
After Chen Wengang left, Qi Tongzhou wandered around the campus alone, peeking at his mobile phone as a thief, and suddenly paused.
What are you doing sneaking around? Capturing between friends is an act of fairness.
Thinking about it, he simply sent Chen Wengang's photo directly to him, and generously posted it to a circle of friends.
Soon a friend praised him. His godsister Li Hongqiong was sandwiched inside, and she gave him a malicious expression.
Probably Mu Qing also saw Qi Tongzhou's circle of friends, and took the initiative to send a message to ask where he was, saying that he also happened to be at school.
Qi Tongzhou treats him as a good friend, and it is not in vain to think about it: "Why don't I invite you to dinner." ”
Mu Qing replied: "I'll invite you to eat, thank you for helping me so much." ”
In private, the two maintained a few chats from time to time, and Qi Tongzhou also helped him introduce a cutting-edge curator.
Mainly in these years, those who engage in art rely on praise, that person is known to Qi Tongzhou's mother, it is said that he has a little energy in the buyer circle, and has discovered a lot of newcomers' works, and to be honest, he is also very good at hype. Although Qi Tongzhou doesn't know much about the art circle, he still has righteousness, and he is especially worried about coming to Mu Qing to contact him. Thinking of this stubble, I will ask how the cooperation is going later.
After about a quarter of an hour, he saw Mu Qing walking towards him against the sun.
It was a hot day, Mu Qing walked under the shade of a tree, his pace was not fast or slow, white shirt and jeans, and he looked like a refreshing student.
Qi Tongzhou stood on the side of the road, with his hands in his pockets, looking away from a distance, and once again had the illusion that he was very similar to Chen Wengang.
Where to say, I finally remembered a word that my sister often used - it may be clothing. Qi Tongzhou suddenly discovered the reason, Chen Wengang also seems to like to wear this kind of shirt. But there was no monopoly on dressing up, and he put the idea behind him.
The curator chatted with Mu Qing more smoothly than he expected, and Qi Tongzhou was happy for him.
At the dinner table, he asked about the specific situation: "So the man said, can I also make you a special theme art exhibition?" ”
"Yes. He seems to be quite optimistic about my work, saying that it has aura, and probably thinks it is still a little valuable. ”
"That's amazing." Qi Tongzhou praised sincerely, "Don't be presumptuous, it's very unusual to be able to hold a solo exhibition." ”
"I can't say that yet, I haven't written a word." Mu Qing frowned, "It depends on whether we can find a suitable sponsor." ”
"How much does it cost to hold an exhibition like the one you mentioned?"
"The cost of a well-chosen art museum alone may be between 100,000 and 200,000 yuan. There are other miscellaneous items as well. ”
When Qi Tongzhou heard Mu Qing say this, his heart was a little moved.
His little master didn't know the price, and originally thought that it would be millions larger - if it was only two or three hundred thousand, he could come up with this money himself, and his family usually bought a luxury brand casually but this number.
But it was obviously impossible for him to say this in front of Mu Qing and hurt the other party.
After knowing each other for so long, Qi Tongzhou also knows about Mu Qing's situation, he has no father and no mother, and he lives in his uncle's house. Both of them seem to have a kind of high spirit, and it is not easy to think about it.
Even Qi Tongzhou wanted to secretly help behind his back, but there was no need to let the other party know.
Suppressing the idea in his heart for a while, the two continued to eat, the two of them chatted, most of the time it was Qi Tongzhou looking for a topic, remembering what he heard from other students today, and suddenly asked: "By the way, do you know what star is on the campus selected by our school?" ”
He didn't notice that Mu Qing's face suddenly paused subtly: "You said 'Campus Star'." What's wrong? ”
"Do you know where that entrance is?" Qi Tongzhou was very excited, "It sounds interesting, but there were a lot of people in the morning, so I didn't ask clearly." Do you know that Wengang is still a candidate? It is said that there is a good chance of winning the championship, so I would like to check out this event page. ”
"On the school's website."
"Okay, I'll take a look."
However, when he opened the page, Qi Tongzhou showed the same expression as Zheng Maoxun, and he was even more embarrassed - for what he just said.
"Eh, so you're a candidate too." Fortunately, Qi Tongzhou reacted quickly and made a surprise look, "And the number of votes is so high." I said you're too modest, future campus star, why haven't you ever mentioned this? ”
"Nothing to mention, not too high." Mu Qing's attitude was indifferent, "I'm not as popular as Chen Wengang." ”
"You can't say that......"
"It's a fact."
"I'm sorry, are you angry?"
"I didn't."
Qi Tongzhou's heart is bad, but this is also an oolong, how does he know that the two are candidates, and they are competitive. It must have made people feel uncomfortable talking like that just now, but he faintly felt that if Chen Wengang was on the other side, he would definitely not be so stingy.
He made a joke and tried to adjust the atmosphere: "It's a pity that I don't have a student number yet, so I don't have a vote." Otherwise, ...... next semester"
"There's no need for that." Mu Qing had already written coldness on his face, "I didn't understand what the meaning of this kind of activity was. Isn't it interesting to hang people up like commodities and judge them, and decide who is better than whom? ”
He raised his voice slightly, dropped his fork on the table, got up, and walked out of the dining room.
Qi Tongzhou hurriedly went up and grabbed him: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all my brains that I can't talk about." ”
。
&nbs
p; Someone next to him heard the prestige, probably Mu Qing didn't want to attract attention, and finally sat back in place with him.
Qi Tongzhou apologized again and again, and finally relented in exchange for the other party.
Mu Qing suddenly smiled bitterly in front of him: "Am I very careful?" ”
Qi Tongzhou was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "No, no." It was I who had the problem speaking first. ”
Mu Qing shook his head: "No, you don't know. I didn't even expect to worry about such a trivial matter. Actually, I didn't have any contradiction with Chen Wengang, but, do you understand? The feeling of suddenly discovering that the people you are familiar with are much better than you. ”
Qi Tongzhou didn't know how to answer this, but he didn't feel disgusted. On the contrary, in the past, Mu Qing had a sense of detachment from him, and suddenly revealed his true side, Qi Tongzhou felt trusted by him, and the relationship was much closer.
In the end, he was relieved for a long time, Mu Qing finally smiled, and solemnly apologized to him before parting: "I know, it's my own problem, I didn't adjust my mentality, but vented at you, I'm sorry, I'll invite you to dinner next time." ”
Qi Tongzhou still cares: "This should be the case between friends, it's better to vent any negative emotions." ”
He said sincerely: "If you have any bad things in the future, you can use me as a trash can to confide in." ”
*
The summer is hot and humid, and the weather forecast says that there will be continuous rain in recent days, reminding the public to be careful of slippery roads and carry rain gear when going out.
The Houren Special Education School, which is under preparation, is located on Shengtang Street in the old city.
The relevant departments of the government welfare department approved a building for the use of the school, which was originally an unfinished building, but was rebuilt and covered after being taken over by the government, and then changed the planned use.
When Huo Niansheng looked in from the back door of the classroom, Chen Wengang was having a meeting with several colleagues, and the discussion went back and forth.
There seems to be a divergence of opinion on some issues.
Schools recruit teachers and school workers, and the former undoubtedly has to do a detailed background check. The acting person in charge proposed that the scope of the investigation should be extended to all employees who joined the company, including but not limited to all handymen in charge of cleaning, utilities, boilers, kitchens, and drivers.
However, some people feel that such a process is too complicated, the recruitment cost is too high, and it is not realistic to implement.
Chen Wengang received Huo Niansheng's news, turned his head sideways, and met his eyes through the back window.
He smiled slightly, turned his head back, and raised his hand: "I agree with Eden's opinion. ”
The lady named Eden proposed to do a background survey of all school workers: "Not only should it be done, but it cannot be overstated. ”
The opposite side retorted: "I tend to issue a certificate of no criminal record. Our cleaners and drivers are outsourced, and there are rotations of personnel from time to time. ”
"But we're not running a business," she insisted. Costs to be controlled, but not in these areas. ”
In the end, Chen Wengang helped: "Thinking about it from another angle, the school will accept special children, and most of them will not express themselves if they are bullied, and they will not even understand that they are being bullied." In case of an evil ** similar to sexual assault, the executioner is put in by our own hands. That situation, at least, I don't dare to think about. ”
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the other side flashed, and they didn't say anything to refute it, which was considered to be a consensus.
"That's it." Eden said, "Wengang, you read the charter further. ”
After half an hour, the discussion was over, and several people in the room stood up and dismissed.
Chen Wengang introduced the two outside the classroom: "This is Eden, Luo Suwei, the current acting head of the school. ”
Huo Niansheng shook hands with her politely.
Luo Suwei became old and practiced, and looked at Huo Niansheng - first judged that he was rich, and drew an equal sign with the potential donor in his heart, and explained to Chen Wengang with a smile: "You take Mr. Huo for a casual visit." There's something else going on from the Foundation, and I've got to go back. ”
Chen Wengang said goodbye to her: "Go slowly." ”
Huo Niansheng grabbed his pocket with both hands and looked around.
The classrooms are freshly painted, with brightly coloured walls, foam carpets on the floors and low railings around them. There are no desks like ordinary schools, and there is a row of small round chairs on the wall, and there is not a sharp angle in the room.
Just now, a group of adults just bent their legs in these chairs for a meeting.
Chen Wengang took him out: "Because the furniture is not all in place, there are not enough chairs in the office, so I can only borrow the classroom first." ”
This special education school is still in a semi-finished state, and even the office functions are not complete, and the others naturally leave quickly.
The whole building was empty, only the two of them were alive, and the corridors echoed with footsteps, and the kicks and taps were extremely empty.
The sunset shines through one of the windows, the colors are warm, and the freshly painted walls are also distressed, with retro filters.
Chen Wengang walked him over one classroom after another, pushed open the door and showed him the sensory integration room. Huo Niansheng walked around, but gradually gave birth to an illusion that he could go to the end of the old days with Chen Wengang like this. The thought made him feel warm and melancholy.
In the last room on this floor, he reached out and put his arm around Chen Wengang, and took a kiss on the wall against him roughly.
Chen Wengang restrained and pushed him away: "Don't mess around. Don't look overhead with surveillance either. ”
But monitoring is undoubtedly not yet enabled. Huo Niansheng had no scruples: "The rest of the day is mine, huh?" ”
His eyes were full of what was going to happen, Chen Wengang's heart suddenly beat faster, and his fingers interlocked: "Wait for me to lock the door first." ”
