"I...I really didn't think so..." Shao Yatong also knew that if Qiu Haoyu and Chu Xingyan were really together, the inevitable encounters in the future would definitely cause unnecessary misunderstandings, but she could tell that Chu Xingyan
She really likes Qiu Haoyu, and Shao Yatong feels relieved when she is with Qiu Haoyu.
"Then what do you think? Is it possible that you really have lingering feelings for Brother Haoyu and support Sister Chu Mohan to be with Brother Haoyu so that you can always meet him? Does Chu Mohan know what you are thinking?" Shao Yaqian
Aggressive.
"He knows... No, no... I didn't think so at all! Yanyan really likes Brother Haoyu... Please sister, if Yanyan is here later, you must not embarrass them both."
"Maybe..." Shao Yaqian saw Shao Yatong's face turned pale with fright, curled her lips, smiled, and pulled her arm, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore! The Chu family is kind to me, and Chu Xingyan is naturally like my sister.
, how could I embarrass them!"
Although Shao Yaqian said this, Shao Yatong still had doubts. She was her biological sister, but when did this sister not feel sorry for her?
"Go and call the door." Arriving at the door of Qiu Haoyu's dormitory, Shao Yaqian took the shopping bag from Shao Yatong's hand and motioned for her to go forward and call the door.
After the doorbell rang, Shao Yatong subconsciously took a step back and stood with Shao Yaqian. She secretly took a deep breath. She still felt a little embarrassed every time she faced Qiu Haoyu. This time she was even more nervous around Shao Yaqian.
At this moment, the door opened, and a head poked out first.
"Sister-in-law? Why are you here? I thought... Huh? This is..." Chu Xingyan jumped out and looked at Shao Yaqian for a long time, "Ah! I know, this is the real Shao Yaqian.
No?"
"What is the real Shao Yaqian?" Shao Yaqian was very curious about this statement.
"That's not all..."
Shao Yatong quickly stepped forward to block in front of Chu Xingyan and took over the conversation: "Everyone often mentions you, but now she sees the real Shao Yaqian!"
"Well, that's what I mean." Chu Xingyan agreed with Shao Yatong, but she also guessed that Shao Yaqian had no idea about the proxy marriage.
"Isn't Brother Haoyu at home?" Shao Yaqian looked into the room. "I came back specifically to see him!"
"He has classes at the moment, and he will probably be back soon." Chu Xingyan let Shao Yatong and Shao Yaqian into the room like a hostess.
This single dormitory itself is not spacious. With three women squeezed in at once, it obviously feels like there is not enough space.
"You also brought gifts?" Chu Xingyan saw the shopping bag in Shao Yaqian's hand, and she naturally recognized the Versace logo.
"Of course, today is Brother Haoyu's birthday, so naturally I have to prepare a gift for him." Shao Yaqian put the shopping bag next to her.
Only then did Shao Yatong see the sumptuous meal and birthday cake on the table. She also just remembered Qiu Haoyu's birthday. She had really forgotten all about it during this period.
"It seems that a guest is here." As soon as Qiu Haoyu entered the door, he saw Shao Yatong standing outside. He was very happy at that time, happy that she had not forgotten his birthday.
"Brother Haoyu - happy birthday!" Shao Yaqian squeezed out of Shao Yatong's way and went straight over to give Qiu Haoyu a firm hug.
"Ya Qian? Is it really Ya Qian? You are back. Come and see if your body has recovered?" Qiu Haoyu pulled Shao Yaqian away and looked her up and down. "Your health is the most worrying thing for Xiaotong. Look.
She feels relieved now that you are so healthy."
Shao Yaqian's heart was churning. After all, what Qiu Haoyu was worried about was whether Shao Yatong would be concerned. She didn't believe that Qiu Haoyu would really put his thoughts on Chu Xingyan.
"Brother Haoyu, I made a special trip to celebrate your birthday. I also brought you a gift." Shao Yaqian said as she went over and took out the dark gray casual suit and matching casual pants. "Go and try it on.
, let us see if it looks good or not." Shao Yaqian said, pushing Qiu Haoyu into the inner room to try on clothes.
"This is really a generous move. It's Versace's." Chu Xingyan said sourly. Qiu Haoyu never pursued these things. Even if she had money, she would never buy him such expensive clothes. She was afraid that he would feel uncomfortable wearing them.
, but this Shao Yaqian is really like a rich man, spending so generously, but even Chu Xingyan can guess where her money comes from, it doesn't belong to their Chu family!
"Sister-in-law, where is your gift?" Chu Xingyan was curious about what Shao Yatong prepared for Qiu Haoyu.
"I...I forgot Brother Haoyu's birthday..." Shao Yatong said with shame, she really didn't remember it at all.
Chu Xingyan felt much better after hearing this. She was really afraid that Shao Yatong would still focus on Qiu Haoyu.
"Forgot? Do you really forget or dare not remember?" Shao Yaqian looked at Chu Xingyan and asked.
Shao Yatong didn't know why Shao Yaqian, but she was clearly trying to provoke her and Chu Xingyan. In fact, Shao Yatong felt guilty for forgetting Qiu Haoyu's birthday. She was afraid of seeing Qiu Haoyu's disappointed eyes.
God. "I'm going to go for a walk first." After Shao Yatong said that, she rushed out of the door, a bit like running away. She didn't wait for Qiu Haoyu to change clothes. Thinking about it, she was really scared to wait until Qiu Haoyu asked her about the gift she prepared.
Shao Yatong came to the gallery near the school to see if she could buy anything for Qiu Haoyu, but she really didn't know what Qiu Haoyu needed now.
After walking around the gallery, she didn't pick anything to buy for Qiu Haoyu. She was about to leave when she suddenly saw a gilded "The Thinker" in full scale in the corner. Shao Yatong's eyes lit up and she stepped forward quickly.
Take a closer look at this ornament.
The ornaments were placed a bit high, with a price tag of 50,000 yuan. It was rare to find such a store near the school selling items at this price. Shao Yatong looked at the "Thinker" and couldn't help but think of Qiu Haoyu.
I remember when I attended a sculpture exhibition with Qiu Haoyu, Qiu Haoyu told her that in international sculpture works, one set of molds can be used to cast multiple pieces of the same work. The Thinker has a total of five plaster molds, and the first four were cast during Rodin's lifetime. 21
"The Thinker" is in art museums around the world. The fifth one was allowed to be reproduced in 25 pieces. The Thinker they saw at that time was one of them. It was cast in the Rodin Museum in France.
Shao Yatong clearly remembered Qiu Haoyu mumbling: "If possible, I really hope that I can own a "Thinker"." Everything at that time was vivid in his mind, and Qiu Haoyu's words were still echoing in his ears. After seeing this Thinker, he became
Get real.
Qiu Haoyu told her that in the history of Western art, the artistic appreciation and evaluation of "The Thinker" showed that Rodin's human sculptures not only show the beauty of strength, but also contain a profound and eternal spirit. They are powerful, mature and profound images, muscles
Contracting violently in pain, frowning and holding chin in meditation, contains a profound and eternal spirit...
Shao Yatong hoped that Qiu Haoyu could revive with this spirit and realize his ambition in the field of art. She thought about raising her hand and reaching for the "Thinker".
"Sorry, this is not for sale!" Suddenly a vicissitudes of voice behind him interrupted Shao Yatong's movements.
Shao Yatong retracted her hand and turned around. A tall and energetic old man with gray hair in a Tang suit came towards her. It seemed that this was the person who had just stopped her. "Are you the boss?"
"Yes, I am the boss here. This ornament is not for sale." The old man reiterated again.
"Why is this? The things on display in the store are for sale, so why don't you sell them after you put a price tag on them?" Shao Yatong was puzzled.
"You can buy whatever else is in the store..."
"I just want this!" Shao Yatong said simply! She finally decided what to buy for Qiu Haoyu. Although fifty thousand yuan was too much for her, thinking about those past times, she felt it was worth it because she owed Qiu Haoyu
There are really too many.
"Are you a student at the Academy of Fine Arts?" the old man asked curiously.
"It used to be."
"Graduated?" the old man asked.
Shao Yatong lowered her head. This was her pain. She might not have the chance to graduate.
Seeing that Shao Yatong had something to hide, the old man no longer held on to it, "Why do you have to buy this?"
"I love Rodin's "The Gates of Hell" and especially "The Thinker"!"
"It seems that very few girls like this." The old man looked at Shao Yatong doubtfully, "Are you willing to spend 50,000 yuan to buy this piece of scrap metal?"
"Thinkers are priceless." Shao Yatong only said this short sentence and then silently stared at the gilded bronze statue of less than 20 centimeters. After a long time, he continued to speak quietly: "In such a confusing and glitzy era,
In this materialistic society, all we see in our eyes is lust, running around for money, power, and a luxurious life.
Mo Jueqing gradually forgot about love and hatred, no great sadness, no great joy, numbness... more and more numbness... Only he - the thinker, he always sits silently in this quiet corner and meditates like this.
His lonely and profound eyes traverse the long river of history and gain insight into this chaotic life. Who among us can stop and look at ourselves now like him?"
"Well said!" The old man behind him couldn't help but applaud. "Okay, I've decided to sell it to you!"
"Really?" Shao Yatong stood on tiptoes excitedly and took down the "Thinker" ornament with both hands. "Have you really decided to sell it to me?" Shao Yatong asked again uncertainly, because the other party said there must be a reason why he didn't want to sell it, but suddenly
She couldn't believe her change of mind. When she saw the small word "fly" in the lower corner of the sculpture, she was stunned. Was this made by the master sculptor Qiao Jianfei? How could it cost only 50,000 yuan?
"Boss, are you sure this statue is worth fifty thousand?" Shao Yatong stared at the old man with wide eyes.
"What? It's too expensive? How much do you think this is worth?" the old man asked with a smile.
