In winter, the sky gets dark earlier, and after [-]:[-] in the evening, the cold night has begun to shroud.

Ruan Jing sat in the pitch-black studio, staring at the lines on the computer screen in a daze, the hand holding the pressure-sensitive pen was already frozen, and he didn't continue to write for a long time.

With a bang, the lights in the room were turned on, and Ruan Jing was so shocked that it was Lao Xu who came over.

Old Xu shivered with his hands in a hot water bottle, and looked at him like a fool: "Why are you in a daze, the lights are not turned on, and the hour is almost here."

It turned out to be the countdown.

Ruan Jingcai was surprised that the time had passed in a daze.

He doesn't feel sorry for the waste of time touching the drawing board-there are too many opportunities to use the board recently.

Since he has mastered the human body, more and more manuscripts have been passed in a pile of homework, and the one-hour reward time has also increased.The initial novelty slowly wore off.

He no longer uses a board to draw finished manuscripts, and sketches regularly, and finds that even if the carrier changes, the exercises that need to be done are the same.

However, just recently, Ruan Jing found himself in a bottleneck.The writing is always a bit sluggish, no matter how I draw, I am not satisfied, and the number of drawings can't make a qualitative change.

This problem in his love and professional field made him repeatedly have self-doubt, and the ensuing confusion and anxiety persisted for a long time.

Although such a shadow is not urgent, it almost covers all his daily study and life.

Lao Xu glanced at the person who was lost in thought again, and knew that the kid was still thinking about the question he asked himself a few days ago—why he suddenly felt that he couldn't draw well.

He sighed inwardly. In fact, learning any thing will have the same process. Ups and downs are normal. Ruan Jing is too strict with himself, so he will get into the horns.

His progress was rapid, and he was smart and hardworking.But the more things you come into contact with, the more things you don't understand will naturally increase.

After all, personal creation contains hard work, opportunities and talents.

As for how far and how high you can go, it depends on the ratio of the three things.

Old Xu forcibly pulled the man's spirit back: "You won't spend Christmas Eve in the studio tonight, will you?"

Ruan Jing lost his thoughts and looked at him.

There was pity in Lao Xu's eyes: "It would be miserable without a girlfriend for the holidays, but it would be even worse if we still stayed with the cold plaster statue."

Ruan Jing thought this was true.

The recent research breakthrough method like obsessive-compulsive disorder, the days have passed without knowing the years, I came to practice as usual tonight, only to be reminded that it was Christmas Eve.

Ruan Jing couldn't help muttering back: "It sounds like you, Teacher."

"I don't have a girlfriend, but I have an appointment." Lao Xu glanced at his phone, started to pack his things, and told him to close the doors and windows when he left, and left him alone when he was done.

Ruan Jing moved his sore cervical spine, collapsed on the back of the chair, and took out his phone to look.

Evenings are self-study classes, and many people in the class plan to skip self-study and sneak out to play.

He watched the jubilant chatter for a moment, and felt that it was too miserable for him to be sitting in the cold studio.

In the small group, Lin Bai and Sun Qi discussed going to the bar together to find Qin Xijue. Qin Xijue also said that there was an event in the bar, and the two started @自己. Unfortunately, Ruan Jing kept drawing and didn't reply.

Ruan Jing held the phone, and didn't immediately happily agree as usual.

In fact, since the night when the sports meeting ended, he felt a little awkward when he saw Qin Xijue, it was one-sided.

After that day, Qin Xijue suddenly asked him if he still remembered what happened that night.

When he thought about it, his memory only recorded that he was depressed all night because of a guess, buried himself in a drink, and was sent home by Qin Xijue.

As for what was said on the road, I really can't remember.

But Qin Xijue asked this question, and when he learned that he had no impression, his expression was light, but the disappointment in his eyes was covered like a tulle, and the light in his eyes dimmed.Ruan Jing immediately felt apprehensive, thinking that something was wrong, the matter must not be so simple.

I must have done something.

What do people do when they are drunk and driven by emotions?Every time Ruan Jing guessed, his heart sank.

However, Qin Xijue said he was fine, so he couldn't get any information from him.

Ruan Jing thought for a while, what Teacher Qin said was true, and drinking was really a mistake.

So recently, Ruan Jing had this matter in his heart, and encountered a bottleneck in his profession, and his whole body suddenly showed a wave of wandering confusion, and sometimes revealed a faint anxiety.

Under the two-phase pull, the nerve is as tight as a steel wire.

At this time, he hadn't appeared in the group for a long time, and it seemed to confirm the strange atmosphere between the two of them.

Ruan Jing slowly leaned back in his chair, stared at the ceiling paralyzed for a moment, thinking that he couldn't always be like this, no matter in terms of professionalism or his relationship with Qin Xijue.

If there is no way, then think of a way, and you can't stand still.

After all, Qin Xijue has been his important friend for a long time, if he offends him, he should get rid of the bad impression in time.

Ruan Jing made up his mind, accepted the invitation in the group, and asked them to meet at the school gate.

After speaking, he began to pack up. He put all his things into his schoolbag, and saw something lying quietly in the schoolbag.

As soon as the movement stopped, he reached out his hand to touch the thing that had been stored for a few days, and suddenly laughed.

At nine o'clock, the night is dark and the lights are like day.

The pedestrian street tonight is even more lively because of the festival, and the festive music from various stores intertwined and merged into a lively symphony, and the ups and downs are very harmonious.Red and forest green decorations spread from the street corner to the end of the street, with snow-white and twinkling Christmas trees scattered among them.

Ruan Jing was walking in the crowded crowd, colorful lights shone into his pupils, his heart was filled with joy by the smell of fireworks, and there was only one voice ready to come out - this is the world!

Go to his broken studio.

Stepping into the bar, the atmosphere is indeed different from the past.

The whole bar was soaked in a festive atmosphere, the lights had been dimmed, the beating was brisk and romantic, and even the music became low and soft, and the waiter at the door even gave each guest a rose.

Ruan Jing looked at the delicate flowers and laughed, thinking that no matter what festival you celebrate in the bar, it will bring some romance.

He looked around, but did not find Qin Xijue.

The guy at the bar knew what he was looking for, so he joked, "Your Brother Qin just went to the warehouse, so he'll be here soon."

Ruan Jing once again felt that the younger brother's words were really pleasant, so he chatted with him for a few words before going to the booth to find Lin Bai and the others.

As soon as he sat down, Ruan Jing saw Sun Qi throwing his rose to Shen Wei, with disgust on his face: "It's too strange for me to hold it, you can play with it."

"Wow," Shen Wei took it happily, then remembered something, and hesitated, "Am I okay, the class leader took the lead in skipping class..."

Lin Bai, a class-skipping player, spoke immediately: "Don't worry, I have inquired. Lao Xiao is not at school tonight, and he is going to hold a parent-teacher meeting."

When Shen Hua left, it was true that most of the students in the class were gone.

Just as Ruan Jing was about to tease Sun Qi, the phone vibrated in his hand.

It was Lu Song who sent the message.

There are a bunch of gift boxes in the photo, and there are two bright red big apples in the front, obviously picked out from many gifts, showing off clearly.

Lu Song's embarrassment almost overflowed from between the lines: "The Christmas Eve gift for you and Lao Qin, although you can't eat it, but you can see it and feel it, don't be too moved."

Ruan Jing thought it would be shameless.

So not to be outdone: "What a shame, I don't have anything to give away, so let me send you a red envelope."

With a flick of his thumb, a picture in the shape of a red envelope was sent out.

A few minutes later, a string of ellipsis was sent over there. It seemed that it took me a long time to click blindly before I found out that it was a fake red envelope picture.

Lu Song was angry: "What wicked thing?"

Ruan Jing chuckled: "Each each other."

After enough trouble, Lu Song started to talk about the serious business: "I saw the class rankings of the No. [-] Middle School Sports Meeting. Why Lao Qin has become more active, I can't think of leaving."

Ruan Jing's sense of territoriality was rang the alarm, and he immediately corrected him: "He is from No. [-] Middle School. What does it matter to you in Sichuan?"

Lu Song laughed so hard that he ran away after speaking, threatening to have an important date.

Ruan Jing laughed with him for a while, the smile on his lips was still there, when he raised his head, Qin Xijue walked over from not far away, and happened to look at him.

His hand holding the phone froze, and the time remained silent for a few seconds before he followed his inner reaction and waved to Qin Xijue.

Originally, he wanted to make himself not so happy, but seeing this person was so happy, he couldn't hide the joy in his smile.

When Qin Xijue passed by the bar, he was stopped by the guy at the bar, and brought over the wine ordered by Lin Bai and the others.

Qin Xijue leaned over and put the wine on the table one by one. He glanced at the rose that Ruan Jing was holding all the time, and suddenly asked, "Like it?"

Ruan Jing was taken aback for a moment, only to realize that he was playing with the flowers unconsciously, and he was about to pinch the stem of the rose until it was only half a palm long, when suddenly his heart moved, and he leaned over to insert the rose into the chest pocket of Qin Xijue's jacket.

Ruan Jing blinked: "Send you off."

Qin Xijue was taken aback for a moment, then laughed.

After the wine was finished, he straightened up, then bowed slightly to Ruan Jing and nodded, and raised his right hand at his waist—a salute of thanks.

There was still a careless arc on his lips, ambiguous light flowed through the ends of his hair, and there was a smile in his focused eyes when he straightened up.

Ruan Jing gasped for breath, and his heart beat violently.

Shen Wei looked at the movement here, smacked potato chips, smiled gratifiedly and kindly: "The two of them have such a good relationship."

Lin Bai didn't see anything unusual about serving a drink: "What kind of mentality do you girls have when you see other boys playing together? Is it the same as when you see me and Sun Qi making trouble? What are you thinking?"

Shen Wei took a look at this silly child, Sun Qi and Lin Bai were just making fun of each other, she always felt that Qin Xijue and Ruan Jing were not the same, but jokes are jokes on weekdays, it would be bad to discuss rashly .

An hour later, the bar was full and there was no new source of customers. The customers who were having fun were concerned about themselves, and the staff in the store became idle.

Ruan Jing poked his head and saw Qin Xijue casually leaning on the bar counter, watching the resident singer quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.

When he saw the person, the person immediately noticed it and turned to look at him.Ruan Jing waved at him, Qin Xijue was taken aback, and walked over.

The other three people didn't know what sand sculpture video they were watching, so they burst into laughter on the opposite side.

Qin Xijue sat next to Ruan Jing. The atmosphere in the bar tonight was a bit noisy, the surrounding music and voices were a little louder. Ruan Jing moved closer to Qin Xijue before he heard his voice.

Qin Xijue asked: "What's wrong?"

I don't know if it was an illusion of light and shadow, but Qin Xijue lowered his head and spoke with a gentle expression.

Ruan Jing rummaged through his schoolbag, found a gift box, and handed it to Qin Xijue.

Ruan Jing coughed: "Christmas gift."

Qin Xijue looked up at him in surprise.

After watching for just a few seconds, Ruan Jing felt the blood rushing to the base of his ear, which probably stained his skin red. Fortunately, the flickering lights and shadows were considerate and covered up this little secret reaction for himself.

Qin Xijue took it with both hands, and opened the box to have a look.

It was a soft gray scarf, and upon closer inspection, it was the same style as Ruan Jing's apricot scarf in recent days.

The texture is so soft that it feels warm to the touch, light and soft.This is the second gift Ruan Jing gave him.

Qin Xijue bowed his head in silence, his bony fingers touched the scarf, this scene inexplicably made Ruan Jing feel a little embarrassed.

"...Qin Xijue, I sometimes run the train with my mouth full of words, and sometimes I can't hold it back. Maybe it doesn't mean that at all..." Ruan Jing finally finished the difficult and euphemistic words in his heart, but when he touched the other party's His gaze faltered again, and he hurriedly changed the subject, "I don't know if you like the scarf, but I saw this color when I went to buy mine, and I thought it was quite suitable for you."

I put it in the bag for a few days, and finally sent it out at the right time.

Qin Xijue looked at him for a moment, then laughed: "Thank you, I like it very much."

Ruan Jing breathed a sigh of relief and became happy.

Qin Xijue put away the gift box: "Wait a minute." Then he left with the box, looking in the direction of the dormitory.

Ruan Jing guessed that he was going to put something.

When Qin Xijue came back, he also had a gift box in his hand.

Ruan Jing let out a "huh".

Qin Xijue handed the gift box to Ruan Jing: "Merry Christmas."

Ruan Jing opened his eyes wide. It turned out that Qin Xijue had also prepared a gift. He looked at the other party helplessly, and then took it with a sense of solemnity.

He suddenly thought of something, and he was vigilant: "Wait, if I open it as a reference, I will bite you."

In view of Teacher Qin's thinking, Ruan Jing was full of doubts about his choice of gifts.

Qin Xijue raised his eyebrows lightly, looked into Ruan Jing's bright eyes in the half-darkness, and involuntarily touched his teeth with the tip of his tongue, he actually had some vague expectations for these words.

Ruan Jing slowly took it apart, it was a pair of headphones.

He was surprised, and was about to ask Qin Xijue how he knew his earphones were broken, but then he found out that this was the pair he had read online a few days ago and thought it was too expensive, so he kept it in his collection first.

It turns out that Qin Xijue has noticed that he has been entangled repeatedly.

Before Ruan Jing could speak, Qin Xijue said, "Ruan Jing, I'm the same. I'm not good at expressing, and there are always times when I can't convey enough meaning, but I will never feel bad for you because of anything."

Qin Xijue naturally knew what Ruan Jing was talking about, he almost forgot that his deskmate was usually careless, but he was surprisingly keen in detecting emotions.

Unexpectedly, the little bit of disappointment revealed at that time was not well hidden, and it became the lead of Ruan Jing's uneasiness.

Qin Xijue was also relieved afterwards, it's good that Ruan Jing forgot.It is impossible for him to lie to Ruan Jing, let alone tell the truth.

Not all good feelings need a conclusion, nor do they need a follow-up.

This person can exist in his world, which is beautiful and commendable in itself.

After Ruan Jing listened in a daze, a soreness of joy spread in his chest, the gloom of these days seemed to be swept away, he looked at Qin Xijue with a silent smile, and then nodded.

Ruan Jing picked up the wine: "Hey, Teacher Qin, I haven't had a drink yet."

Qin Xijue also laughed. He took a clean glass, poured the wine between the ice cubes, and touched Ruan Jing with the glass.

The crisp sound of "ding" made Ruan Jing's heart full of joy sway along with it, making tiny bubbles like the wine in the glass.

A thought suddenly popped up in his mind, even if he cared too much about Qin Xijue, so what, the joy that this person can bring him is always unusual and unique.

Drink to your heart's content.

Sun Qi suddenly ran to the bar, and then came back to greet him: "Come on, brothers, take a photo!"

Lin Bai cheered and ran over to seize the seat next to Mr. Qin, Shen Wei sat next to Ruan Jing, Sun Qi walked behind Ruan Jing, bent slightly, and supported the back of the sofa with both hands.

Ruan Jing couldn't help but look at the little brother who was holding a Polaroid in front of him.

The little brother commanded people to pose exaggeratedly, then raised the camera, and used five pieces of photo paper to capture this moment forever.

No matter what festival, there will always be more or less a sense of ritual of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new. This is why people like to celebrate festivals.

At least at this moment, Ruan Jing is surrounded by these close friends. With the warmth of company and festival blessings in his arms, he has the courage to move on and an inexplicable longing for the future.

The drinking party was over, and everyone had a good time, and said goodbye one after another.

This time Ruan Jing didn't dare to drink too much, he got on Qin Xijue's bicycle and went home with him on the way.

On the way back, the boy at the bar suddenly chatted privately.

Brother: "I took a picture today, and I suddenly thought of something."

Then a photo was sent.

The angle of view is the car window at a red light, which should be taken by the little brother sitting in the car.

Outside the window, a boy was carrying another boy on a bicycle, and the boy in the back seat seemed to be asleep as he leaned on the back of the boy riding the bike.Taking advantage of the red light, the boy riding a bicycle reached out to pull the collar of the person leaning against him to prevent the cold wind from leaking in.

It was Qin Xijue and himself.

It turned out that this was what happened that night after I fell asleep.

Ruan Jing glanced at the person who was concentrating on riding the bicycle at this time, and his eyes fell on the photo again, feeling a little sweet in his heart.

He couldn't help laughing, something was slowly fermenting in his heart, ready to come out, and it was about to overflow.
