The joy of rebirth

"I received the notification. I will take the exam at eight o'clock tomorrow." Xue Yan put away his phone.

"Come on." Guo Hao grabbed one of the backpacks and took out the Walkman. "Do you mind if I make a sound?"

Before the words were finished, the music had already come out.

Xue Yan laughed and said, "Your question is too insincere."

Guo Hao smiled and said nothing.

"However, when was your Walkman made? I went to the mall and asked, and they all said that it is no longer produced."

"Well, it seems that it is no longer produced. After all, all the MP7s are out now." Guo Hao smiled lightly.

"I used to think that buying a Walkman was too extravagant." Xue Yan recalled when he was younger.

"Really? Then your requirements are low enough." Guo Hao glanced over and wondered who cares about a Walkman now.

The next morning, Xue Yan was woken up.

"Did it bother you?" Guo Hao glanced over and continued to pack his luggage, "Sorry, I have a [-] o'clock train, so I'm leaving now."

Xue Yan looked at his watch, it was less than [-] o'clock.

"Leave now? It's not yet six o'clock."

"Well, let's buy some food on the way. Don't hurry too late."

"Oh, then, good luck."

"Thank you, see you by fate. Goodbye." Guo Hao said, picked up his luggage and walked out.

"Bye-Bye."

Xue Yan didn't feel sleepy anymore, so he simply got up to tidy up.That Wang Jingwu said to arrive at eight o'clock, so it would be better for him to go earlier.

It was already eight o'clock when Wang Jingwu leisurely arrived at the admissions office, and Xue Yan had already been waiting here for [-] minutes.

"Has it been a long time?"

"Not too long." Xue Yan smiled, showing no sign of displeasure.

"Well, that's right."

……

After filling out the application form, Xue Yan followed Wang Jingwu to an empty classroom.

"What is the exam question?" Xue Yan asked after setting up his easel.

Teacher Wang unfolded the painting he was holding very calmly.

There is a spring flowing among the mountains in the painting, and there are some tadpoles in the water.

"Do you know this painting?"

"I know, it's Mr. Qi Baishi's "The Sound of Frogs Coming from the Mountain Spring from Ten Miles"."

"Very good, please follow this way of expression and make a picture. Time limit, [-] hours. There is no limit to the theme and subject matter."

……

For an ordinary art candidate, this topic is too strange and too difficult.Xue Yan didn't know what Wang Jingwu meant, but since he asked this question, he had to follow the rules to draw.Qi Baishi's painting uses a special association technique.There is not a frog in the painting, but it can show the scene of the title very well.

In fact, there are many such paintings in history. Xue Yan thought of the champion who painted the ancient temple in the mountains in the past, and smiled slightly, thinking that this is not cheating.

Two hours later, Xue Yan wrote the last stroke, and turned to look at Wang Jingwu.

The man was reading a book at the same time, when he looked up, he was surprised and said, "Did you finish the painting?"

"Yes." While speaking, Xue Yan took down the painting and handed it over.

The teacher took it over and looked at it, his eyes lit up a little, then he raised his head and glanced at Xue Yan, and said, "Hey, you go back first. This is considered as passing the exam. If you pass it, I will send you a letter."

"Thank you."

Taking a deep breath, Xue Yan went to the hotel to pack his things.Next stop, T city.

When I got back to the hotel, I realized that I forgot to open the curtains in the morning, and the room was very sleepy.The big dark blue slippers that Guo Hao wore were crookedly placed beside the cabinet, adding a touch of decadence.

Xue Yan in his previous life was different from other art workers. He seldom got colors all over his body, and he didn't mess around with his painting tools.It's not that there is any cleanliness, he just loves to be clean.

After packing up his things, he tidied up the house as well.Xue Yan went downstairs to pay.

"Are you leaving?" The aunt sat behind the counter and looked up at him.

"Well, settle the bill." Xue Yan took out several ten-yuan tickets and counted them with his head bowed.

Handing over forty, Xue Yan smiled and was about to thank him, but the aunt interrupted him.

"I'll stay here again next time! The child in the room with you is also very beautiful. I will give you a discount!"

"...Yes, thank you."

"Thank you, pay attention to your own safety!" After finishing speaking, the aunt bowed her head and went to work.

This aunt...is really cute.

Xue Yan walked out of the small door of the hotel and walked east.

After passing a small road leading to the park in the city, Xue Yan still went to the park.Although it might take some time, Xue Yan really wanted to take another look at this place where he used to take a walk and sketch.

Walk to the lake.A person was sitting on a seat nearby.

Qi Yang.

Xue Yan felt that his breathing was disordered.

Qi Yang sat there quietly, his eyes fell on the lake in the distance, as if he didn't notice the existence of Xue Yan behind him at all.

This person is still the same, calm, gentle but actually indifferent.

His own death didn't affect him at all, right? The corners of Xue Yan's mouth curled up slightly, wondering if he should feel sad about it.

Turning around to leave, as expected I shouldn't see him again, and when I saw him, my heart was confused again.

Until Xue Yan's figure walked away, the person sitting on the seat seemed to feel something, and turned his head to look.

……

The next day, Xue Yan went to T City Academy of Fine Arts to take the unified exam.

There is no luck to talk about, after all, the skills of the previous life are there, and this body is still flexible.Xue Yan had no doubts about whether he could pass in the end.

When Xue Yan returned to Yicheng's home due to exhaustion, he just wanted to throw himself on his bed and have a good sleep, so Xue Yan's mother dispelled the idea of ​​taking him out for a big meal.

"So, how did you do in the exam?" He asked cautiously.

"Fortunately, the questions are not too difficult." Except for the weird question from Wang Jingwu...

"Really? Xiaoyan is awesome!" Xue Yan's mother smiled, "Take a good rest today and go to class tomorrow."

"Oh, I see."

When Xue Yan's mother walked out of his bedroom, Xue Yan breathed a sigh of relief and nestled under the soft quilt.

The moment before he fell asleep, Xue Yan thought in a daze, how terrible it is for a person like himself to devote himself to the college entrance examination again...

The next morning, Xue Yan was refreshed after a full sleep.After eating Xue Yan's mother's "love breakfast", Xue Yan went to school very early.

The test papers handed out in the past few days were scattered on Xue Yan's desk, which looked like Xiaodong's style.

"Yo, you're back!" Xiaodong arrived at the classroom at [-]:[-], and was surprised to find that Xue Yan had already taken his seat.

"That's right. You didn't come early." Xue Yan was doing the papers for the past few days that had just been sorted out.

"Ahem, I didn't open my eyes until 06:30 today." Xiaodong rubbed the back of his head, his habit of not waking up was not changed at all because the college entrance examination was approaching.

"Where have you been reviewing all the subjects these days?"

"Well."

... The atmosphere in the class is tense, but at the same time there is a kind of inexplicable indifference.Because most people's spirits are too tense, a little joke now can make people in the class laugh wildly for a long time.Xue Yan unexpectedly discovered that he seemed to enjoy this kind of life quite a bit, it was simple and clear, and there were not so many troublesome things.
