Lotus Chronicle

"Lianji, this way." Seiichi Yukimura seemed to be in a particularly good mood today. Originally, he didn't have much hope for Lianji to come to the art exhibition with him. After all, this was not the first time he had asked, but he had gotten All of them answered in the negative, and the last question he asked without any hope before leaving was actually agreed by Lian Er.

Lian Er looked at the dense crowd all around, frowned slightly, but still walked over, he didn't like to appear in places with so many strangers a long time ago, just thinking that he hadn't come out for such a long time, he went He went to Jingshi, but he didn't expect that there were far more people than he imagined.

I wouldn't have come if I knew it earlier, I might as well stay in the room and read a book!Lian Er was so annoyed in his heart.

Seiichi Yukimura watched Lianji cautiously avoiding unfamiliar body contact, the corners of his mouth curled into a helpless arc, and walked over to clear the crowd for Lianji, comfortingly said: "When you get in, there won't be so many people inside."

"Hmm." Even so, Lian Er couldn't help being irritable in his heart, he hated such a noisy environment!If he hadn't agreed to Jingshi, he would definitely turn around and leave immediately.Yukimura Seiichi obviously sensed Renji's boredom, quickly quickened his pace, and led Renji through the crowd and walked in through one of the open glass doors.

When we arrived at the exhibition hall, the inside was indeed much better. Lian Er relaxed his brows, his expression slightly relaxed.Although there were still a lot of people, at least there was no rubbing shoulders like outside, and there was no loud noise, which was barely acceptable.

"Lenji, do you have any paintings you want to see?" Yukimura Seichi put one hand in his trouser pocket and asked Renji with a smile.

"I don't know much about these things. Since I'm with you, let your opinion prevail."

"In this case..." Yukimura Seiichi tilted his head and thought for a while, "Let's take this as a guide to take a stroll around here."

Following the right corridor pointed by Yukimura Seiichi, Renji nodded in agreement.

The two stopped and walked like this, admiring famous paintings and masterpieces along the way, stopping to discuss from time to time.

When Seiichi Yukimura saw the masterpieces of his favorite painters, he would introduce them to Renji in detail one by one. His tone was obviously agitated. Although Renji is not an expert, he can occasionally express some opinions. Fortunately, the village's interest increased even more.

Renji swept across the well-placed paintings on both sides of the corridor, and listened carefully to Yukimura Seiichi's introduction, from the background and style of the painter to the creation background and artistic conception of this painting... From Yukimura's words, Renji can clearly understand Feel Yukimura's passion for painting, just like his love for tennis... Well, although he doesn't know painting, he has learned a lot from Seichi's details.

As Lian Er was walking, his eyes suddenly stopped on a painting on the right, and he stopped involuntarily.

"Lianji, do you like this painting?" Seeing Lianji standing in front of a landscape painting, Seiichi Yukimura asked. This is also the work of a famous contemporary Chinese painter he likes very much. His paintings are magnificent Magnificent and majestic, the small scene is quiet and serene. Looking at his paintings is a kind of enjoyment.In the contemporary painting circle, this oil painter is eye-catching and belongs to the "life flow" painting style with his works of rural themes and simple and pure personal style.

"Fortunately, I like the world of the heart he painted with color." Pure and beautiful without any impurities.

"Hehe... Really? I like it too." Yukimura saw that Lianji seemed to be thinking about something, his expression paused slightly, and then he spoke to Lianji with a smile on his face, "Lianji , let's go and see the teacher's paintings, this time my teacher's paintings are also exhibited here."

"Really? Congratulations." Lianji looked away, looked at Yukimura, and followed Yukimura's footsteps with a smile.

After the two of them looked at the paintings exhibited in the art exhibition one by one, it was almost noon. At this time, they were sitting in a nearby milk tea shop and resting. On the table covered with light purple floral cloth, there were two cups of I drank a few sips of original milk tea.

Next to them is a transparent glass wall, and the outside happens to be a pedestrian street, and you can see the lively crowd coming and going as long as you tilt your head.

Lian Er looked outside indifferently, as if he was looking at people and scenery, but he didn't seem to be looking at anything. It was very lively outside, but maybe because of the glass, he always felt that he was blocked in another world. Everything outside has nothing to do with me...

Yukimura took a few sips of milk tea, looked at Renji with his chin in his hand, suddenly thought of something, and sighed.

"What's the matter?" Lianji heard Yukimura's sigh, turned his gaze back to his face, and asked lightly.

"No, I'm just sighing." Yukimura held his chin, the corners of his lips curled up, "Renji, how long do you think we've known each other?"

Lianji blinked, although he didn't understand Yukimura suddenly asked this question, but he still answered a precise number: "Nine years, six months and thirteen days."

"It's almost ten years!" Yukimura continued to sigh, "Time flies so fast! I think that when I first met Lianji, Lianji was still a cute little bean with a little cutie, and he became so big in the blink of an eye... ..." Time is not forgiving!

Lian Er Hei Xian, don't say it as if you are very old, okay?Back then, you were also a little bean, with such an elder tone... Are you making such a fuss?

"I heard that a straight-line school girl said that she liked someone in front of the whole class, and even launched a fierce pursuit offensive. I wonder if someone is attracted to him?" Yukimura said with a smile, the hottest topic in school recently. out.

Lian Er's face froze immediately, he knew who Yukimura was talking about, of course, when he was in class some time ago, a sturdy straight school girl suddenly ran up to him and made a bold declaration of confession, and then ran away, although at that time The class has not officially started yet, but the students have almost arrived, so there is a lot of noise.

In the past few days, no matter where Lian Er appears in the school, he will "coincidentally" meet her. No matter how he tries to hide, he can't hide from her. It's really difficult, so he would rather be bored in the apartment than go to her when he has no classes. The library is gone.

"I've seen that junior sister too. She's quite cute. It's rare to have a deep affection for you. Lian Er, why don't you give it a try?"

Lian Er lowered her head, staring at the cup in front of her, "Jingshi, I don't want to talk about this right now."

Although the tone was light, Yukimura could hear the resistance in Ren Er's words, so he could only say: "I am just a suggestion, the decision is still up to you. After all these years, you are still alone. I hope you can have a companion by your side." Even he has been in love twice during the more than three years in college, but Lian Er has always been alone. Cough, of course, although he has been in love twice, he is still very responsible for his relationship. It's just that they can't get together for a long time, so they can get together and break up. He just ended a relationship two months ago, and he is still single now, but he is not in a hurry to start a new relationship. After all, fate can't be met.

"Let's have a look again." Lianji understood Yukimura's intention, but he really didn't have that thought.It may be that the previous relationship was too deep for him, so now he can't feel attracted to another person at all, even if he gets closer, he can't stand it.

"Okay." Yukimura can't force Lianji to accept people he doesn't like, and let him do whatever it takes with regards to feelings, but—"Lianji, are you..." still thinking about him?

"What?" Yukimura was talking, his voice suddenly dropped, Lianji couldn't hear what Yukimura was saying for a while.

"It's nothing." It's been four years, he really doesn't want to mention that name again, it will only hurt Lian Er, although now Lian Er seems to be able to face everything calmly, but after all, it is an indelible scar.

Lianji didn't ask further, he thought he knew what Yukimura wanted to ask, and he didn't know the answer to this question, so he didn't know how to answer, picked up the cup and took a few mouthfuls of milk tea in disguise, Lianji turned his head and continued Look out the window at the street scene.

There was a moment of silence, and Yukimura didn't speak again, but it didn't take long before Renji's cell phone rang.Lian Er bowed his head and took out his mobile phone, seeing that it was Chi Ye's call, he pressed the answer button.

"Where are you, senior? I went to the apartment to look for you, so I couldn't find you?" After the connection was made, Chi Ye's loud voice came over.

Before Lianji could answer, Yukimura took the phone, "Lenji and I are going to see the art exhibition outside!" It was rare to show off childishly.

"Senior Yukimura?" Sure enough, there was a shout from the other end of the phone, "Senior Yukimura, you are so hateful! You actually abducted Senior Liu! No wonder I couldn't find Senior Liu!" He wanted to be alone with Senior Liu, and then For a meal or something, I deliberately skipped the last class and ran to the apartment rented by Senior Liu excitedly, but the apartment was empty, did not expect Senior Liu to be abducted by Senior Yukimura? !

"Haha..." Yukimura Seiichi smiled heartily.

"I want to go to the art exhibition too! Where are you now? I'll go there right away!"

"Ah, what a coincidence, we've already finished watching the art exhibition." Yukimura said it was a pity, but the thick smile was so terrified no matter how you looked at it.

"How can this be! Seniors, how could you leave me behind..." Chi also became irritable at the other end.

Lian Er on the side smiled when he heard their conversation. After so many years, Jingshi still likes to tease Chi Ye so much, and when he heard Chi Ye's energetic jumping sound, Lian Er couldn't help but bend his lips and smile.

After teasing for a while, Seiichi Yukimura comforted him, "Okay, okay, to make up for you, so I decided to have a party this Saturday..." Hearing Akaya's obvious cheers, Seiichi Yukimura smiled even more amazingly After Chiya calmed down, he added, "Go and inform Genichiro and the others!" Then he hung up the phone.

"Party?" Lian Er asked.

"Yes!" Yukimura Seichi squinted and smiled, "It's been a long time since the few of us gathered together. Let's all come out and gather while we still have some free time. There will be fewer such opportunities in the future." They are better friends My friends separated when they were in college. They each got into their ideal universities according to their own professional study plans. Fortunately, everyone is in Tokyo, not in different places, so every once in a while, they will get together and get together. Although most of the time either you are busy or he is busy, you can always find a chance to get together every two or three months.

Seeing that Jingshi said that, Lian Er couldn't refute, so he nodded in agreement, and it's true that we haven't seen each other for a long time.
