It was already late at night after Chuchu finished work. Ye Xun ordered her takeout dinner, but she didn't move while she put it next to the table.

When she was painting, once she entered the state, it was difficult to get away, and she didn't like to disturb others. So Ye Xun simply left early because a commercial cocktail party invited him to attend.

Chuchu packed up her messy desk, walked out of the room, took out her cell phone and opened the call record.

There were three calls she didn't receive today. The earliest one was from Lu Chuan. Chuchu couldn't wait to call back, but she hung up the phone just after it rang.

She looked at the moonlight above her head and it was already late.

She recruited a taxi at the intersection, edited text messages and sent-

"Are you asleep?"

The next second, the phone number Ula Ula started to shake. After so long, when I saw that word, Chuchu's heartbeat would still be accelerated. She cleared her throat and said softly: "Lu Chuan."

“Working to this late?”

His voice was very quiet, his voice was extremely low and gentler than the night.

"Yeah, I have to catch up with the progress."

Chuchu quickly explained to him: "I don't know it was you who called, if I knew..."

"Um?

How about it?"

"If I know, I'll answer the phone."

"I heard that you don't like being disturbed when you work."

Lu Chuan walked out of the bathroom, wiped his wet hair with a bath towel, and walked to the window, his eyes were gentle and silent.

"If it's you, I won't disturb you."

Chu Chu blushed and whispered.

Lu Chuan pursed his lips slightly. He put the bath towel aside, looked at the night outside the window, and said softly: "I have a seminar these days, maybe I'm a little busy, if I contact you..."

"Um."

Chuchu was a little disappointed, but immediately said, "It's okay, you're busy."

Lu Chuan laughed: "If you contact me, it may be later."

Chuchu immediately snatched: "No problem!"

After a moment of silence on the other side of the phone, Chuchu realized that she seemed...too anxious, and she quickly explained: "I'm sleeping late."

Lu Chuan seemed to be silent, Chuchu was a little anxious, not knowing what he was thinking: "Lu Chuan, why don't you... speak."

"Some words should have been said a long time ago."

His low-meal sound came.

Chuchu's heart suddenly rose.

"It's better to make an appointment, let's meet and talk carefully, huh?"

Chu Chu blushed and said "um" lightly.

"Then it's settled."

"It's settled."

After hanging up the phone, Chuchu leaned on the back seat of the car with all her strength. The bright moon shone into the car window, and her heart was calm.

Chuchu's work is mainly about drawing and processing the wall surface of the lotus petal mural in the Glazed Palace. She works very hard. She is not a workaholic, but because she is focused and devoted, it is difficult to distract from doing something. Moreover, the quality of the things she makes is very good. The teachers and students of the Academy of Fine Arts, as well as professional traditional painters and auxiliary personnel, all praised her finished products.

The painting of murals is actually quite boring and tedious. Chuchu can calm down, but it does not mean that Ye Xun can do it. A few days ago, he ran to the construction area of ​​Guanlan Temple from time to time, but there were few people behind him. Every time Chuchu was concerned about his movements, he was either at a local art seminar or attending commercial cocktails.

In the morning, I received a call from him that an investor in Beijing was willing to invest in the art exhibition for him and needed to set off immediately and wanted to have lunch with Chuchu. Chuchu decisively agreed, and the place where he ate was chosen by Ye Xun, and the address was sent to her mobile phone.

Guanlan Temple is a famous religious tourist attraction in Luzhou. In addition to the nine-story pagoda that is being repaired, other attractions are open, and there are also a constant stream of tourists visiting here.

Chuchu recruited a taxi at the entrance of the scenic area, took it in, and said to the driver: "Yunshan Hotel."

After the driver drove the car out, he stopped after walking a few steps. There were two people in front of him who were also recruiting taxis. The driver intended to bring more passengers. He asked Chuchu what he meant, and Chuchu said that it would not matter if it was the way.

The driver pressed the car window and asked the foreigners where they were going in stuttering English. Another Chinese next to the foreigner said directly: "Yunshan Hotel."

"According to it, the same place."

The driver waved to let the two get in the car.

Chuchu moved instinctively to the side and kept a distance from the two of them as much as possible.

The foreigner's hair is gray, but he is strong and has no age.

The Chinese next to him looked not old last year, and he looked pretty and handsome at the age of 25 or 26.

He was introducing the history and culture of Guanlan Temple to the foreigner in English all the way. From his name, it can be heard that foreigners should be his teacher. Chuchu's English is not very good, and there is not much content to understand.

However, no matter how they talked, Chuchu took her mobile phone and started to browse WeChat and Weibo. I wonder if it was an illusion, she always felt that the two were looking at her, and secretly looked at them sideways, which happened to hit the eyes of foreigners. He did not shy away, and even smiled at Chuchu and nodded in greetings.

Chuchu nodded at him, feeling a little confused.

The foreigner turned his head and whispered to the student beside him. The Chinese began to look at Chuchu and whispered to him in English.

Chuchu doesn't like this feeling very much. Just like in the past, she was always talked about and peeped at.

"If you have any opinions about me, you might as well tell me."

She said to both of them in English that was not smooth but grammatically correct.

The two were slightly surprised, but the foreigner took the lead in apologizing to Chuchu and said in awkward Chinese: "I'm offended, I'm very sorry, I just think you look like someone you know."

So that's the case. They had no malice, so she simply stopped caring about it.

Soon, the taxi stopped at the entrance of Yunshan Hotel. There was already someone waiting outside and opened the car door for them.

Chuchu got out of the car and saw that the person who came to open the door was Lu Chuan. She was a little confused.

"Why are you..."

"It's you?"

Lu Chuan looked energetic in a suit and tie.

"Lu, do you really know each other?"

The Chinese people next to him spoke: "I thought...haha, I thought I had accepted the wrong one."

“Lu,isnt   that   the   girl    from     your    phone?”

The older foreigner also had a meaningful smile in his eyes.

Lu Chuan nodded embarrassedly. He pulled Chuchu over and introduced to the two: "Qiao Chu, my girl."

Chuchu didn't hear the previous sentence in English because she spoke too quickly, but she understood the latter sentence. He said that she was his girl.

Chuchu's face turned red, she gently pulled Lu Chuan's hand, and Lu Chuan introduced to her again: "This is my teacher, Steven."

Chuchu opened her eyes slightly, and it turned out to be his teacher!

Then she was really rude before...

Chuchu quickly bowed to the teacher and shouted: "Hello teacher! My name is Qiao Chu, please give me more advice!"

Steven was stunned for a moment, and then said in simple Chinese: "Hello."

Lu Chuan picked her up and murmured in drowning: "Idiot."

"Lu, I'm not kind, I didn't introduce me if I introduced the teacher."

The handsome Chinese guy next to him said with a smile.

"This is my roommate, Li Yaorang, his name is difficult to say, just call him Li."

"Hello."

Li Yaorang blinked at Chuchu: "Qiao Chu, I have long admired my name!"

After a while, Li Yao asked the teacher to go upstairs to the reserved private room. Chuchu asked Lu Chuan: "How do they know me?"

Lu Chuan leaned closer to Chuchu's ears and said softly: "Do you want to know?"

"Um!"

"I won't tell you."

"Hate!"

Lu Chuan raised his eyebrows and smiled, and liked to see her anxious look. He couldn't help but reach out to touch her head. At this moment, a crisp male voice came from a distance: "Junior sister?"

Chu Chu turned around and saw Ye Xun, who was also dressed in a regular manner, coming over. He actually held a bouquet of red roses in his hand!

Chuchu subconsciously retreated to Lu Chuan.

"I thought you would be a little late."

Ye Xun said embarrassedly: "I've been waiting for a long time."

“I just arrived, too.”
