Chapter 27
Blurred face?
Ji Ruan broke free from Gu Xiuyi’s arms, and turned on the front camera of the phone.
…His face is really pretty.
On the cheeks and chin, there were several patches of orange and red intertwined, and the fingertips pressed the hardest hit areas over the eyes, and the eyelids were stained with black and gray paint.
Coupled with his flushed face due to embarrassment, he is a palette of colors at this moment, colorful and colorful.
“Oh my god…”
Ji Ruan was stunned by herself, and she couldn’t care less about being shy anymore, and immediately went to the sink to clean up.
The fragrant and soft young man in his arms slipped away, and Gu Xiuyi finally breathed out, squeezed his numb fingertips, and stuffed them into his trouser pockets.
He glanced at the painting on the wall, tried to relieve his embarrassment, and cleared his throat: “You paint the sun really well.”
Ji Ruan’s back froze for two seconds from the corner of his eye, and then pretended nothing happened: “Thank you.”
Gu Xiuyi really didn’t care. Talked.
In fact, he was responsible for what happened just now. Whether it is because of comfort or pain during massage, it is human nature to make some noise.
Ji Ruan just did a very normal thing, and he himself who reacted so loudly when he heard that voice was the one with the problem.
Gu Xiuyi remained silent, trying to calm down, but Ji Ruan remained silent.
When Gu Xiuyi calmed down completely, Ji Ruan was still bent over in front of the sink, with thin jets of water flowing from the faucet, it seemed that his waist was bent and he couldn’t wash it cleanly, so he stood up from time to time and hammered his waist hard.
Gu Xiuyi frowned, went to pull Ji Ruan up, and turned off the faucet.
The tap water in the water pipes is always cold, and it is freezing in winter. After Ji Ruan washed it for a while, her hands were red from the cold, and her cheeks were also red, but the paint was almost washed off, except that her eyelids were still dark.
Gu Xiuyi put the back of his hand against Ji Ruan’s cheek, so cold that people were shocked: “What’s going on?”
Ji Ruan was also very helpless.
The paint they use for painting is very difficult to wash off. The paint on their hands can be washed off by rubbing soap several times. It doesn’t rub much on the cheeks.
But Ji Ruan really didn’t dare to wash his eyes with soap, and only wiped them with clean water with little effect.
“I can’t wash it off…” Ji Ruan sighed weakly.
“Don’t touch the cold water yet.” Gu Xiuyi took Ji Ruan to sit down in the rest area, and took out a few pieces of tissue paper for him: “Wipe.”
Ji Ruan folded the paper and wiped off the water on his face little by little. listless.
Gu Xiuyi swiped the phone up and down, and asked: “On the Internet, it says that you can use cleansing oil for this?”
Ji Ruan raised her head and blinked her eyes: “Yes, it seems possible, but I don’t have this thing now…”
Gu Xiuyi thought for a while: “Are you going to draw later?”
Ji Ruan shook his head: “My part is almost finished today, seniors and the others will come to take over later.”
Gu Xiuyi sat down beside Ji Ruan and continued with paper Helped him press the wet eyelashes, and discussed: “Why don’t you go home with me? It happens that tomorrow is the weekend, I will buy you a bottle of cleansing oil on the way, and go back and clean it up carefully?” Ji Ruan’s eyelashes were wet and blurred
. He couldn’t see clearly, Gu Xiuyi’s movements were very gentle, he subconsciously closed his eyes to relax, and thought slowly.
Gu Xiuyi was not in a hurry, and gently wiped his face, and even touched the end of his eyes with his fingertips.
“That makes sense,” Ji Ruan said after a long while, “I’m going back to the dormitory now, Han Xiaolin and the others will definitely laugh at me, why don’t I go with you, I still want to eat fried prawns made by Aunt Zhao.” The corner of Gu Xiuyi’s mouth curled up in
satisfaction The arc: “Okay, I’ll tell her.”
He picked up Ji Ruan’s down jacket and put it on him, then led Ji Ruan and walked outside: “Go home.”
·
Before dinner, the aroma of deep-fried prawns filled the entire villa, and Xiao An was so fragrant that she kept circling Aunt Zhao.
Upstairs, Ji Ruan wiped his eyes with cleansing oil in the bathroom, swallowing while wiping.
Gu Xiuyi leaned against the door frame and smiled: “Look at you, why don’t you go down and eat before you wipe it?” “
No, the longer it takes, the harder it will be to wipe it off.” Ji Ruan focused on the mirror, talking to Gu Xiuyi casually: “Are you coming to the school for the school celebration at the beginning of next month?”
Gu Xiuyi said lightly, “I have received an invitation.”
Ji Ruan waited silently for a while, but she didn’t hear the following, and turned her head: “And then, why don’t you come?”
Gu Xiuyi frowned She pursed her lips and didn’t respond directly, but asked instead: “Do you want me to come?” “
Well…” Ji Ruan actually thought seriously, and said slowly: “I still want you to come, and I also want you to see me That painting looks complete.”
When he said this, he tilted his head slightly, brushing away the hair that blocked his eyes, and the hair looked very soft.
Gu Xiuyi’s fingertips suddenly started to tingle again, as if he had been burned by the slightest warmth in his heart.
“Okay,” Gu Xiuyi’s throat was a little dry, and he covered his lips and coughed, “I’ll be there on time.”
Ji Ruan didn’t notice Gu Xiuyi’s slight emotional changes, and put her whole body and mind on the paint on her eyelids, slowly and slowly. Wipe slowly.
Gu Xiuyi folded his arms and looked at him for a while, and finally couldn’t help but go up to snatch the cotton pad, pinch Ji Ruan’s chin, and clean the paint off his eyelids neatly.
Ji Ruan was very thin, with a small and pointed chin. After Gu Xiuyi wiped him clean, he felt a little reluctant when he withdrew his hand.
“Okay,” Gu Xiuyi folded his fingers together, as if he wanted to subconsciously retain the remaining warmth of his fingertips, “Let’s eat.”
Ji Ruan washed his face and dabbed some body lotion casually before going downstairs with Gu Xiuyi.
A plate of delicious deep-fried prawns had been set on the table long ago, and Aunt Zhao also made some home-cooked dishes, such as seaweed egg drop soup.
Ji Ruan picked up a prawn, and as soon as he twisted off the prawn head, the bright red oil flowed down his fingertips, and the aroma was compelling.
In order to take care of Ji Ruan’s stomach, Aunt Zhao’s deep-fried prawns are not too spicy, focusing on fragrance and freshness. For this dish, Ji Ruan is willing to eat three more bowls of rice.
But just thinking about it, his stomach can’t take it if he eats too much.
Sitting opposite him, Gu Xiuyi ate food slowly, seeing that Ji Ruan’s fingertips were all stained with red oil in a short while, and his lips became bright red and shiny.
Although he eats well, but because he looks good and looks good, it will make people who watch him have an extra appetite.
Gu Xiuyi has been paying attention to Ji Ruan’s condition. Seeing that the red oil is flowing down Ji Ruan’s fingers to his wrist, he wipes it off with a piece of paper at the right time: “
Slow down, peel the shrimp carefully.”
Ji Ruan paused without rebuttal , the action did slow down.
He ate deep-fried prawns in oil once before, and he just ate it. He used too much force when peeling the prawns, and his finger was cut by the prawn shell. It didn’t stop for a while.
In the next second, there was a piece of perfectly chopped shrimp meat on his small plate.
Ji Ruan raised his head, and Gu Xiuyi was peeling the shrimp with his gloves on. His movements looked very casual, but he was fast and skillful, and the beautiful big shrimp went back into his plate after three or two strokes.
Ji Ruan: “?”
Gu Xiuyi didn’t lift his eyes, his expression was calm: “Go wash your hands.”
Ji Ruan almost doubted his ears: “You… want to help me peel?”
Gu Xiuyi still had no expression on his face, as if he was doing something very ordinary “Otherwise? What if you make another cut, don’t you still want to paint?”
Ji Ruan felt as if she had been bumped.
When he came back after washing his hands, his small plate was already full, full of bright red and shiny prawns, and he felt happy just looking at it.
“Thank you…”
Gu Xiuyi took off his gloves and smiled, “You can only eat so much, or your stomach will feel uncomfortable.
” That’s enough, thank you!”
He has never hesitated to express his emotions. When he is happy, his dimples can’t be suppressed. Two rounds hang on his cheeks, as if mixed with honey. With the movement of chewing, they become deeper and shallower. The sugar water inside seems to overflow.
Gu Xiuyi went to wash his hands, and when he came back, resting his forehead on his forehead, he quietly watched Ji Ruan eat.
Ji Ruan’s eyelids were a bit swollen, probably from the paint wash, her entire eye sockets were red, she sniffed, and ate the shrimp and rice together. Lick lip beads.
That red lip is really pretty.
On the day of the school celebration ,
Gu Xiuyi showed up as scheduled, but Ji Ruan was late.
As a special guest, Gu Xiuyi entered the exhibition hall under the leadership of volunteers. First, there was a long and wide corridor.
The inside is brightly lit. On the left is the timeline of major events in the century since the founding of Peking University, and on the right is a long painting, each of which corresponds to the timeline on the left.
The ten-meter-long scroll is spread out straightly like splashed ink, like a dragon diving into a vast soup.
Every historical stage in the painting is to look at his alma mater from the perspective of the students at that time.
In their eyes, Beijing University at the beginning was a sacred palace on the way to study, and later it became a battlefield under the tip of a pen; further forward, it was a difficult mountain to climb at dawn… and finally turned into a bell tower hanging high in the air The rising sun, the future is boundless.
“The drawing is really good…”
“It’s like watching a documentary…”
“It’s amazing to look at the timeline, the scalp is numb when I paint the strokes like a gun…” “
Dawn Gaoshan is also very… My grandma still regrets that she missed the college entrance examination…” “
The last sun is so beautiful…why? Okay, I’m a little proud to be admitted to our school…”
The surrounding students were talking endlessly, and Gu Xiuyi walked slowly through the crowd, his blood became hot because of the soul-stirring scenes written by Ji Ruan.
The 100th anniversary of Peking University has attracted a lot of attention from the society, and many news media have come. Some reporters are reporting to the camera, and countless flashing lights are going off one after another.
“Peking University really has a lot of talents…”
“I heard that the students who draw are not majors in painting, they are all hobbies…” “
It’s mainly because of the spirit and spirit in this painting, which is indeed the character of a prestigious school… …”
This corridor was not originally the focus of the exhibition, but only served as an introduction bridge, attracting people to appreciate other works in the exhibition hall.
But what is very interesting is that the corridor has become the busiest place, students, professors, guests and the media all stay here in unison, and the interior of the exhibition hall seems a little deserted for a while.
Gu Xiuyi walked slowly, concentrating on appreciating the picture of the school history, until the end of the drawing, he still couldn’t get enough of it.
The names of the main painters were inscribed on the signature of the scroll, and Gu Xiuyi stared at the word “Ji Ruan” in it for a long time in silence.
A volunteer came forward and asked, “Sir, do you need me to introduce the chief writers of the school history map?”
Gu Xiuyi came back to his senses, looked at the volunteers and smiled, with a hint of restrained pride in his words:
“No, I I know him.”
The appointment was to meet at the exhibition hall at eight o’clock in the morning, but now it’s thirty minutes late, and the main writer who everyone talks about has not shown up for a long time.
Gu Xiuyi called Ji Ruan, but no one answered the phone until the end of the ring.
He turned around and walked out, continued to dial, and after a long wait, he finally heard Ji Ruan’s voice: “Huh?”
Dazed, Gu Xiuyi paused, and sighed with a smile: “Did you really sleep?”
The other side was quiet In two seconds, there was a sudden chaos.
Gu Xiuyi had to stop him loudly: “Stop, stop Ji Ruan…don’t worry, clean up slowly, I’ll wait for you downstairs in the dormitory.” The
exhibition hall is not far from the boys’ dormitory, Gu Xiuyi had just walked downstairs when Xiao Ran came out Ji Ruan.
His hair was a bit messy, and the scarf hadn’t been put on yet, and he was clutching it in his hand. Although Gu Xiuyi told him not to worry, the child obviously ran out after tidying up a few times, and the blush from sleeping on his face was still gone. remove.
Gu Xiuyi rubbed his cheeks with a smile, and said warmly: “Why did you oversleep?”
Ji Ruan took a breath and put on the scarf: “I saw them hang paintings in the exhibition hall last night, and then waited for the lights to be turned on. If it takes too long, it will be too late to go back, and I didn’t wake up in the morning.”
In fact, Ji Ruan felt a little sleepy now, her brain seemed to be still in a standby state, her mind was a little confused, and she didn’t even have the strength in her hands and feet.
His eyes are black and blue, and he seems to be really tired recently. Gu Xiuyi trimmed his hair and took him to the cafeteria: “Then I would not have called you if I knew it earlier. Let you sleep more.” “It’s okay,” Ji
Ruan Shaking his head: “I happen to be hungry too.”
In the cafeteria, Ji Ruan bought a few steamed buns and a cup of soy milk alone, and Gu Xiuyi sat opposite him and waited for him to eat.
“Did you see the painting?” Ji Ruan asked, taking a sip of soy milk.
“Well,” Gu Xiuyi laughed, “It’s even more shocking than I imagined.”
Ji Ruan was like a child who was praised, with red cheeks and pursed lips, and said, “Actually, I’m also very satisfied. How about it, your junior is excellent, right?” “
“Of course,” Gu Xiuyi smiled, and followed his words: “I am very proud of my senior.”
He has always known that Ji Ruan is excellent, even at first this “excellence” was one of Gu Xiuyi’s criteria for choosing Ji Ruan as a marriage partner, but now his mood has changed.
The current Ji Ruan is so excellent that even thinking about it makes people feel excited.
Ji Ruan was amused by his “senior”, covered his face, lowered his head and quietly ate the buns.
After breakfast, the number of pedestrians on the campus suddenly increased, and the various activities of the school celebration started one after another, and the atmosphere was very lively for a while.
“Do you still want to go to the exhibition hall to look at the paintings?” Gu Xiuyi asked.
Ji Ruan thought for a moment: “Forget it, I have seen the final exhibition last night, let’s go to the auditorium, isn’t there a performance there?” He shrank his neck: “I’m a little cold.” “Okay
.
“
The performances of various clubs were displayed continuously in the auditorium. When they arrived, it happened to be the hip-hop club’s turn, and the music was bursting with loud voices.
Ji Ruan and Gu Xiuyi sat down in the corner of the last row, the indoor heater was turned up, and Ji Ruan took off the scarf.
But he still didn’t seem to be used to the overly strong music, and he got a little headache from the noise after sitting for a while.
Fortunately, each club only had one show. When Ji Ruan and the others came, the hip-hop club was coming to an end, and it was quickly replaced by soft guitar playing and singing.
Ji Ruan let go of her tightly clenched hands and breathed a sigh of relief.
On the way, Gu Xiuyi went out to answer the phone, and Ji Ruan sat inside by himself, chatting with Han Xiaolin for a while.
I don’t know if it’s because the auditorium is too stuffy, or because the stamina of singing and dancing just now hasn’t passed, but Ji Ruan’s temples are always throbbing and hurting.
News of Han Xiaolin kept popping up on the phone screen. He was having fun outside, but Ji Ruan stared at the rapidly scrolling screen and felt dizzy. His heart turned and he almost retched.
He hastily turned off the phone, bent over and rested his hands on his stomach, gritted his teeth, and eased through the moment.
After his vision gradually became clear, cold sweat broke out on his back, and he was so dizzy that his eye sockets were sore.
Ji Ruan touched his face, the temperature seemed a little high…
He closed his eyes in despair, feeling a bad premonition.
When Gu Xiuyi came back, he saw Ji Ruan leaning crookedly on the back of the chair, looking not in good spirits.
The light in the auditorium was dim, and he could only see Ji Ruan’s face clearly when he got close. His cheeks were flushed, and there was a small patch of red around his eyes, but his lips were a little dry.
“What’s wrong?” Gu Xiuyi asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”
Ji Ruan slowly opened his eyes, put his hands on his stomach, and looked a little dazed: “I seem to have a fever again…”
Gu Xiuyi’s heart tightened, and he immediately used Test Ji Ruan’s forehead with the back of his hand, it’s a little hot.
He gently put his arms around Ji Ruan’s shoulders, and put his fingertips on the skin behind his left ear: “How do you feel now? Does it hurt here?”
Ji Ruan shook his head, weakly: “Dizziness, I feel like vomiting.”
