The girl never expected that Qin Xiong could draw such a beautiful painting. If you appreciate it carefully, you will have a suffocating sense of beauty.

Realistic magic colors.

She took a deep breath, calmed down, turned around and handed the painting book to Qin Xiong, and asked with a smile, "Can you give me this painting?"

Qin Xiong carefully tore off the painting without hesitation, rolled it up and handed it to the girl, who smiled and handed him 5 euros...

Qin Xiong accepted the 5 euro note in astonishment, while the girl smiled at him for the last time and waved goodbye.

Looking at her back, Qin Xiong finally understood.

It turned out that she regarded herself as a street painter!

And he also suddenly understood the movement of the girl frowning and thinking for a second when she turned around for the second time.

It may be a kind of pity.

After all, she didn't know Qin Xiong's painting skills.

And Qin Xiong has a sense of sight of a tramp.

The 5 euros are enough for a homeless person to spend on food for one day in Amsterdam. If you save some money, you can also spend two days.

Of course, accommodation is impossible. Accommodation in Europe is generally relatively high, which is equivalent to 5 times or even 10 times the daily food consumption.

Qin Xiong lowered his head and stared at the money in his hand for a long time, and couldn't help sighing: What a kind girl.

When he raised his head again, the girl was nowhere to be seen. Suddenly, he felt a sense of loss in his heart.

No matter how beautiful the surrounding scenery is, no matter how lively the noisy city is, it seems to be overshadowed.

Qin Xiong put away his drawing books, put on his shoulder bag, and walked back to Waddell Street.

He returned to the apartment, lying on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, recalling the appearance of the girl repeatedly in his mind.

He sat up suddenly, took out the drawing book again, and began to draw the appearance of the girl in his memory.

One pair, second one, third one...

Qin Xiong never tires of drawing one picture before redrawing the next one, as if separating the coherent movements of the girl in his memory and turning them into static, different angles, different movements, and different expressions.

Dong dong dong

There was a knock on the door, and Qin Xiong went to open the door. Freddy walked in and said, "Have you eaten your dinner yet? You came back early, but you didn't go downstairs to eat. Uh, this, this is?"

Only now did Qin Xiong realize that there were countless paintings scattered on the floor in his room.

Freddy picked up a few pictures and admired them. When he saw that all the paintings featured a beautiful and feminine girl as the main character, an ambiguous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Qin Xiong, who is she?"

"do not know."

"what is her name?"

"do not know."

"Is she a star?"

"Probably not, I met by chance on the street."

Freddy suddenly yelled at Qin Xiong: "Did you make a mistake! Did you? Or is it a man? Since you like her! Take the initiative and ask her name! Ask her contact information! Pursue her!"

Qin Xiong stood at the window and leaned against the wall, looked away, and whispered: "Who said I like her..."

His voice was very small, like a child denying it.

Freddy laughed and scolded: "This is what I hate the most about you Chinese. Men are reserved, women are reserved. What's the matter? Be bold, take the initiative! If you like it, go for it and express it! Like it or not, It's useless for you to lie to me, the most important thing is whether you are lying to yourself."

Freddie will be happy for Qin Xiong's current state.

He has new friends, a new social circle, and he should also have a girl he likes!

He even felt that Qin Xiong, who was already 18 years old, was relatively late.

When going downstairs to eat, Freddy hugged Qin Xiong and said with a smile: "Next time I see her, I must remember to take the initiative."

Qin Xiong remained silent, but in his heart he was looking forward to: next time, will there be a next meeting?

In the vast sea of ​​people, what is the probability that two strangers will meet once?

What is the probability of meeting again?

......

During the FIFA match day, Qin Xiong stayed in the club to strengthen his actual combat ability in the rainy environment.

The teammates of the youth team came to train with him on time every day, so that Qin Xiong quickly adapted to this environment, and his confidence continued to rise.

When the FIFA match day was coming to an end, Qin Xiong gave himself two days off to rest and relax.

Kaalhus invited Qin Xiong to go out to play, and De Geus, Zeller, and Louis Searle would also travel together.

mid-October.

The Amsterdam Marathon is held.

This nearly 30-year-old event is very popular and a popular sport.

Qin Xiong was originally excited to participate when he heard the introduction from the local, Kaalhus, but Kaalhus told him that the registration period had already expired, and only Kaarhus, Degeus, Zeller, these three A local person signed up, and Luisel, who came to study in the Netherlands, also felt very sorry. He didn't know that there would be such an event in Amsterdam in advance.

It can be said that Amsterdam is an open and lively city. There are controversial marijuana and red light districts here. However, there are many active activities every month. If you are not an office worker or a student, come here for a year , from January to December, every month, you will not be lonely, there will be a variety of activities waiting for your participation and enjoyment.

Perhaps this is the charm of Amsterdam. When you really integrate into the city, you will understand a catchphrase that the locals are talking about.

"God made the world, and the Dutchman made Holland."

The marathon is held on the outskirts of the city center. The start and end points are in the stadium. It officially starts at 9:[-] in the morning. This civilian event is listed as a silver medal event in international track and field events. The civilians are reflected in the fact that everyone can Participation, but the extraordinary thing is that it will also attract masters to participate in the competition. This year, more than [-] foreigners have signed up for the competition. Of course, not all of them are professional marathon households. Some people come to travel and catch up , Then enter the entertainment.

There were more than 3 contestants in total, and the stadium was crowded with people from early morning.

Fortunately, Qin Xiong came here after reuniting with his friends, otherwise, he might not be able to find everyone.

De Geus and Zeller were going to compete, and many of their girlfriends and alumni came. Many people from a university also participated together.

"Hehe, it's a good thing you didn't participate, otherwise, I would definitely not be able to escape you."

Before getting ready to start, Zeller joked to Qin Xiong, but Qin Xiong laughed it off.

Today's marathon, he looked at the race introduction, it's not too scary, fast runners can definitely finish it in two and a half hours, slow runners can return to the finish line in four or five hours.

After firing the gun, Qin Xiong was attracted by the spectacular scene as he watched the crowd rushing out of the stadium like a flood. He waved with Louise and cheered for their friends.

They didn't follow the long-distance running team, and there were entertainment programs around the stadium to enjoy.

Louise was attracted by a local band, and Qin Xiong wandered around casually.

Among the unfamiliar crowd, Qin Xiong walked casually.

More than a week has passed.

He never saw the girl again.

This doesn't make the impression of the girl in his mind less, but more clear.

He, who never regretted it, suddenly had such emotions.

Maybe it should be as Freddy said.

It should be bold to get acquainted when you meet for the first time, so that two strangers can become connected.

Just when he was feeling sad or resentful, he turned his head inadvertently, but it made him freeze in place.

Outside the stadium, there are both performances and souvenirs for sale.

Qin Xiong saw a stall selling drinks, standing there, smiling and selling drinks to customers, was the girl who made him dream!

Compared with the quietness when she passed by that day, today, she looks more energetic, and she treats every customer very politely. Her signature smile can infect people's mood and convey happiness just by looking at them from a distance.

She would wipe the sweat off her face from time to time, obviously working hard, but she didn't show any signs of irritability.

Qin Xiong was like a coward. Not only did he not step forward, but he even took a few steps back, relying on the continuous flow of crowd to block him, covering his existence, and staring at the girl neither far nor close.

After 3 minutes, he began to struggle inside.

Should you follow Freddie's advice and approach him?

But how should I speak?

Qin Xiong was going crazy, he was afraid that if he missed this opportunity, next time, God might not give him another chance to meet this girl.

At this moment, his eyes suddenly became sharp.
