Chapter 108 Art Exhibition
Elite High School 2016 Autumn Sports Day.
Wu Xianyu and Jiang Tianhao sat together, watching the game on the playground and chatting from time to time.
"Oh, that's not right, Xianyu. If you say so, wouldn't Tian Shanshan have to leave her job for a while?"
“I’m just saying it’s a possibility.”
Wu Xianyu squinted his eyes and watched the long jump competition below the stage. He clapped perfunctorily and turned to look at Jiang Tianhao.
"After all, it wasn't easy for Teacher Tian. She has been treated for nearly 20 years and finally has her own child. If she had taken it more seriously, she would have definitely recuperated at home."
"What you said makes sense."
Jiang Tianhao pursed his lips, his tone a little worried
"But she is our chemistry teacher. Is it really okay to suddenly change teachers in the third year of high school?"
After a moment of silence, Wu Xianyu shook his head.
"I don't know. Let's see. Let's not talk about this anymore. I see that your account has been doing well recently. Uncle even filmed the process of making braised food. Aren't you afraid that someone will steal your secret recipe?"
"I don't care much about the account. After all, I have to go to school. My mom taught me how to do this, and she does it pretty well. As for the secret recipe, you don't have to worry about it. If there is really an expert who can figure out the secret recipe from the video, he won't even consider what we have."
When talking about short videos, Jiang Tianhao seemed a lot more relaxed. With the help of short videos, his family's business has been good during this period. Many customers are local people from Jiangzhou and some wealthy and free people who come here to buy business. This has temporarily reduced the financial pressure on the Jiang family.
Jiang Tianhao suddenly thought of something, slapped his thigh, turned around and said to Wu Xianyu
"Hey Xianyu, have you seen Xiaoqi? I often see Xiaoqi's videos recently, and she has a lot of likes and comments."
"Oh? Really? I didn't notice that."
Wu Xianyu took out his cell phone. Since it was just a sports meet, the teachers turned a blind eye. Wu Xianyu opened the short video and the first video he opened was about fishing.
Jiang Tianhao lowered his head and watched the person in the video holding a fishing rod and struggling with the fish in the water for almost two minutes. In the end, the fishing rod broke. He just felt a pity.
When he looked up, he found that Wu Xianyu had a smile on his face, and Jiang Tianhao had a strange expression.
"No, why are you so happy, Salty Fish? Shouldn't you feel sorry that you didn't catch this fish?"
"It's not like I didn't catch it. I would be unhappy if he did catch it."
As he spoke, Wu Xianyu opened the search box and looked at Jiang Tianhao.
"What's Xiaoqi's account name? Let me see."
"Oh, you search this, Xiaoqi loves to sleep"
After taking a quick look at Deng Xiaoqi's video and the comments below, Wu Xianyu exited the app with no expression on his face. To him, this video without background music and provocative movements was no different from a math class.
Seeing that Wu Xianyu had no reaction after watching the video and even yawned, Jiang Tianhao couldn't help but joked
"As expected of someone who has a partner, you are just self-conscious. Even Xiaoqi's dance practice videos can't attract you."
“What’s so good about that thing?”
Wu Xianyu yawned, tears glistened in the corners of his eyes, blinked, and reluctantly found a comfortable position to lean against, saying a few more words.
"In my opinion, her videos are not as interesting as your dad's braised dishes."
"I'll take that as a compliment to my dad."
Jiang Tianhao laughed and continued
“Her videos just need to be good-looking.
"tsk"
Wu Xianyu shook his head, became more talkative, and spoke a few more words to Jiang Tianhao.
"Have you ever played mahjong? There is a cheat card in it, and you can mix and match it to form a hand at will, right?"
"Hearts, I know. Why are you talking about playing cards all of a sudden?"
Jiang Tianhao was a little surprised, but he didn't think too much about it. He was just chatting.
"Good-looking is like this heart card, which can be paired with any other card type, but if played alone, it is just an ordinary card, and any smallest bomb can suppress it. So, good-looking and any other advantages combined make it a good card, but playing alone makes it the worst card."
Jiang Tianhao digested it for a while, then smacked his lips after a few minutes, as if he understood something.
"So what you mean is that Xiaoqi now only has a heart, but no other cards to match it?"
After glancing at Jiang Tianhao, Wu Xianyu was a little reluctant to speak. The slightly warm wind today made him feel sleepy. He yawned, but Wu Xianyu kindly explained to Jiang Tianhao
"She is smarter than you, otherwise why would she get entangled with Qian Sanyi?"
After saying that, Wu Xianyu closed his eyes and leaned back in a chair in the audience to rest.
Jiang Tianhao sat beside Wu Xianyu and thought about it carefully. After thinking for a long time, he muttered to himself:
"Oh my goodness, it means that my card is not big enough. Thank you so much, Xiaoqi, for not liking me."
"Jiang Tianhao! Jiang Tianhao, where are you?"
Zhao Rongbao's voice came from not far away, and Jiang Tianhao quickly stood up to respond.
"Hey, here it is!"
"Why are you still going to other classes? Hurry up and take two boys to the cafeteria to bring our class's food over."
When Zhao Rongbao saw Jiang Tianhao sitting next to Wu Xianyu, he just said a few words and then ordered him to go to work.
Hearing the voices of Zhao Rongbao and Jiang Tianhao, Wu Xianyu opened his eyes and looked at his mobile phone. It was almost time for dinner.
I sat up and looked around, and found Lin Miaomiao. She was sitting with Mai Ju, so I sent her a message.
"Please bring me some food, love you []"
Lin Miaomiao, who was complaining to Mai Ju about the poor performance of the announcer, felt the phone in her arms vibrate and a faint ringtone came. Before Lin Miaomiao could react, Mai Ju's words came through.
"Oh, it's a ringtone that you're particularly concerned about. Let me see who it is?"
As he said that, he put his head on Lin Miaomiao's shoulder. When Lin Miaomiao opened her phone and saw the profile picture and name of the person who sent the message, Mai Ju lost interest.
"You are such a lazy person. I am so free. I am still trying to guess who else you will give special attention to."
"hey-hey"
Lin Miaomiao just smiled foolishly, clicked on Wu Xianyu's message, saw that it was a message asking her to bring food, curled her lips, turned around to look in the direction of Wu Xianyu, and found that he was like the two cats at home, sprawled on the chair as if he had no bones.
With a flick of her finger, Lin Miaomiao sent her message and then pulled Mai Jue
"Let's go, I see lunch is here, let's go get some."
Feeling the vibration of his phone in his arms, Wu Xianyu did not rush to take it out. Instead, he continued to be lazy for a while before slowly taking out his phone.
Meow Meow doesn’t eat fish: I’m too lazy to eat you
With the corners of his mouth slightly raised, Wu Xianyu turned off his phone and prepared to take a nap. He heard footsteps from two people beside him. Just as he was about to turn around, a lunch box was handed to him. At the same time, he heard Lin Miaomiao's voice.
"Here, I've reserved the chicken drumstick for your lunch. It's my errand fee."
"Lin Paopi, do you have to be so cruel? You want to snatch just one."
While opening the lunch box, Wu Xianyu stood up and complained about Lin Miaomiao.
When Wu Xianyu opened the lunch box, Lin Miaomiao quickly snatched the chicken leg with a smug smile on her face.
“How can you make people work without paying them?”
"Then why don't you pay me for the meals I cook every day?" "How dare you say I didn't pay you?"
Lin Miaomiao squinted her eyes and looked at Wu Xianyu, and pursed her lips slightly. Wu Xianyu immediately understood and nodded with a smile.
"Ah, I paid it, I remembered it wrong, from now on my chicken legs are yours"
After watching Mai Ju flirting for a long time, he looked at the chicken drumstick in his lunch box, and his teeth felt a little sour. Finally, he put it in Lin Miaomiao's lunch box.
"I'll give you my chicken drumstick too, it's a bit sour."
"Hmm? Is there? Why didn't I smell it?"
Lin Miaomiao sniffed for a long time but didn't smell any sourness. Even if it was sour, Mai Jue should have thrown it away instead of giving it to herself. Thinking that she had guessed something, Lin Miaomiao smiled and moved closer to Mai Jue.
"Mai Ju is the best, because he knows I like to eat meat."
Mai Ju rolled his eyes.
After dinner, Wu Xianyu was too lazy to get up and go back to the dormitory to rest. Today's weather was really suitable for resting outside.
Mai Ju and Lin Miaomiao sat next to each other and played with their mobile phones. They were watching short videos at this time. They had to thank the school's wireless network coverage. The whole school had full signal, which was really conscientious.
The two of them watched the video and became critics
"this is not OK"
"This is acceptable"
“I don’t think so”
"Hey, Miao, you are really strict."
"Hahahaha, Juzi, your Taiwanese accent is making me laugh to death."
Listening to Lin Miaomiao's laughter, Wu Xianyu's mouth curled up. He was like this at that time. He could laugh all day long just by saying a few words to his childhood friend, and he was as happy as a fool.
“Hey, this video, let’s take a look at it.”
Mai Ju's voice called out to Lin Miaomiao who was about to scroll down to the next video. She carefully watched the video and the voices coming from the people in it, and her eyes were immediately filled with gossip.
"I seem to have heard something about abandoning someone after having sex with them?"
“I think I heard it too.”
Mai Ju and Lin Miaomiao looked at each other, then they lowered their heads and clicked on the comment section to start eating melons.
".Qian Zhongxiang's art exhibition. A pregnant woman suddenly appeared. She was driven away. She was suspected to be the owner of the art exhibition."
After vaguely hearing these key words, Wu Xianyu felt that most of his sleepiness had disappeared. He squinted his eyes slightly and tilted his head towards Lin Miaomiao, wanting to hear more clearly.
Two hours ago, Deng Xinhua and several people in charge of the exhibition were leading Qian Zhongxiang and his wife to visit the exhibition. Qian Zhongxiang was very happy to see so many people coming to his exhibition.
“There are quite a few young people here, that’s great.”
"Yes, young people nowadays are very opinionated and willing to accept different things. Your paintings are quite interesting."
Deng Xinhua was speaking nice words and guiding everyone.
As they were talking, a woman wearing sunglasses suddenly appeared, blocking the way of Qian Zhongxiang and his companions, and started to speak to Qian Zhongxiang.
"dad"
Qian Zhongxiang was stunned. He looked at his wife and then hesitantly looked at the man in front of him.
"Ma'am, you may have mistaken me for someone else. I don't think you and I know each other."
"We didn't know each other before, but after this time, we know each other now."
As she spoke, Lili took off her sunglasses, put them in her bag, and took out a report.
"I am pregnant with Qian Yukun's child. This is the pregnancy test report. I came to see you privately this time."
After hearing Lili's words, Qian Zhongxiang felt his blood pressure rising. Looking at the slightly bulging belly of the woman in front of him and the report in her hand, he didn't think anyone would be so brave as to lie to him.
Deng Xinhua and several other exhibition directors looked at each other and silently reduced their presence. Deng Xinhua even took out his cell phone to send messages.
After a long silence, Qian Zhongxiang looked at Lili and said in a dull tone
"Where are Qian Yukun and the others?"
Lili's smiling expression changed slightly. How could she know what Qian Yukun was doing? She hadn't seen him since he gave her some money last time, and all his contact information had been blocked.
Seeing that Lili didn't say anything, Qian Zhongxiang seemed to have guessed something, and his tone became much calmer. He spoke to the lady beside him.
"Ask Pei Yin what she is doing"
"Old man, please don't bother outsiders."
Lili's voice came, and the smile on her face was very formal
"Pei Yin and Yu Kun have already divorced, and they are already two families, why bother her?"
"divorced?"
Hearing Lili's words, Qian Zhongxiang's chest kept rising and falling, and his face began to turn red. When his wife saw this, she immediately stroked his back with her hand and whispered to him not to be angry.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry. You just believe whatever others say. Maybe you are a mental patient."
With his wife's comfort, Qian Zhongxiang's complexion gradually improved. At this time, Deng Xinhua, who had received instructions, came forward with several security guards.
"Take this lady out of the exhibition hall and be careful"
Two muscular security guards came forward, but they didn't dare to force it. After all, Lili was pregnant. Lili also knew that her plan to fish in troubled waters would be difficult to succeed. She didn't even maintain her forced smile and spoke loudly.
"Old man, your son cheated on me and then abandoned me. He lied to me and said he wanted to marry me, but after he got me pregnant, he dumped me. You can't be unreasonable. You are a high-level intellectual."
Lili's voice became smaller and smaller, and she was forcibly carried out of the exhibition hall by two security guards.
Upon hearing that the two were not married yet, Qian Zhongxiang's expression eased slightly, but he no longer had the desire to continue looking at the exhibition. Just based on what Lili had just said, he had become the most dazzling exhibit in the exhibition hall.
After speaking to Deng Xinhua and the exhibition director, Qian Zhongxiang and his wife prepared to leave. As they walked out of the exhibition hall, they heard a voice coming from
"Mr. Qian, you are a scumbag. You tricked me into marrying me and got me pregnant. Then you ran away after we had the baby. You are so shameless."
At the same time, a group of people gathered at the entrance of the exhibition, all holding their cell phones with their cameras pointed at Lili.
Lili just shouted a few times to vent her frustration. What else could she do if Qian Yukun didn't want to be with her? She could only shout like this to cause him trouble and embarrass him.
Seeing the good effect, she was happy, but Qian Zhongxiang looked at the crowd of people at the door, and felt ashamed. He quickened his pace and prepared to leave. Unexpectedly, someone in the crowd pointed at the poster at the door and said
"Hey, look at that old man on the poster, isn't his last name Qian? Wow, he's still strong and healthy."
"Isn't the one coming out now the old man? Damn, I have to interview him."
Looking at the discussions in the crowd, Qian Zhongxiang seemed to hear the sound of a blood vessel tearing, his eyes went dark, and his body fell straight backwards.
