Chapter 12 Snow
Chapter 12 Snow
This winter came very suddenly, as if within a few days, the last leaves on the trees disappeared without a trace as autumn passed, and the world became pale and desolate.
One night, snow fell on the city.Tiny snowflakes, dancing with the wind and curling up, look extraordinarily pure and charming under the off-white street lights, just like a fairy tale.
Xia Yu stretched out her hand, followed the snowflakes falling from the sky, held her palm, looked at its charming hexagonal outline, and quietly waited for it to melt. 'It's been a long time. '
Snow has not visited this cold city for many years, perhaps because it is not worthy of its short life.
Xia Yu took out her sketchbook and began to draw, but felt that something was missing.
She was just wearing a sweater and a thin uniform jacket, as if she didn't feel cold at all.
She had just finished her evening self-study and found out that it was snowing outside as soon as she went out.
She hasn't seen snow for more than ten years. She remembers that she was still beside her father, watching him paint snow scenes.
She scribbled a few strokes hastily, tore the paper from the notebook, crumpled it up and threw it on the side of the road.
No, it's not like this. The picture is dirty, not the ethereal and pure snow.
She drew a few pictures, but still couldn't find the feeling she was looking for, and she messed up her hair, feeling a little frustrated.
She was silent in her own world, completely unaware of the passage of time.They were just drafts one by one on the ground, recording the process of her painting.
The snow fell harder and harder, and Xia Yu's body was already covered with a large wet spot.Xia Yu didn't realize it at all.
Shen Chai sat at home and waited for a long time, but did not wait for Xia Yu.
She looked up at the falling snow outside the window, then looked down at her watch.It's time for school to be over. Why hasn't she arrived home yet? Maybe something happened.No, it won't, maybe it's just that I can't go home because the snow is heavy and I don't have an umbrella.She was full of worry and anxiety.
Finally, she couldn't sit still anymore, picked up the car keys, and went to pick up Xia Yu.
She saw Xia Yu from afar.
She stood alone in the wanton snowstorm, and the snowflakes swirled around her.It seems that the world is centered on her, and she is the king of this world.She waved the pencil recklessly, held the sketchbook casually, and drew in a chic way.The snow-like proud gloomy face.
She didn't want to disturb her, so she quietly walked behind Xia Yu with an umbrella, and hit Xia Yu's head and painting with the umbrella.
Xia Yu saw a large shadow on the sketchbook.She raised her head and saw the gleaming silver umbrella ribs and black umbrella surface.This is her umbrella.She looked back and saw that Shen Chai was standing behind her.
Tall and straight, with an open beige long trench coat.The hair that has been loosened gives the whole person a wild beauty.
Seeing Xia Yu's dazed state as if awakened from a start, Shen Chai smiled, "Do you know what time it is now?"Don't go home yet, you're not good. '
Xia Yu panicked, subconsciously glanced at her watch, it was indeed getting late.It's been more than two hours since school ended.
Shen Chai looked at her, saw her wet school uniform, and wiped the snow off her head with her hands.I couldn't help feeling distressed, how long had she been in the snow?
'Sister Shen, I'm sorry.Painting forgets time. ' She lowered her head and clutched the sketchbook in her hand to hide her nervousness.
'You. Shen Chai sighed, "it's always like this, so painting is more important than your big body."I don't know where to find a place to block the snow. With that said, she took off her beige windbreaker and put it on Xia Yu's shoulders.She was wearing a white shirt, showing her exquisite figure.
Xia Yu just wanted to refuse, wanted to take off the windbreaker and return it to Shen Chai, Shen Chai knew what she was thinking, and she gently pressed Xia Yu's hand, "Don't refuse, if you catch a cold.I will never let you paint while you have a cold, I will do what I say. 'Shen Chai's voice was pretending to be serious, but there was also a little gentleness that couldn't be concealed.
'Um. ' Xia Yu nodded.She gripped her clothes lightly.She sniffed lightly, and could still smell Shen Chai's breath.It is not the pungent taste of artificial flavor, but a unique fresh fragrance.
Shen Chai took her hand, walked to the car, closed the door, and opened the window.
'Draw it in the car, and then go home when you're done. ' Shen Chai's voice was soft, with a hint of pampering and connivance.
Xia Yu's heart was filled with an unspeakable emotion, her eyes were red and she was about to shed tears.She never thought that there was another person in this world who could treat her so well.She always thought that she was destined to be the one who was abandoned.
She turned her face out of the window, let the cold wind blow on her delicate face, let the snow hit her eyes, and kept her tears from streaming down.
She pretended to be nonchalant and answered 'no. ' When she calmed down, she closed the window. "Sister Shen, I can't paint the pure and light feeling of snowflakes. How should I put it, it always feels dirty." '
'You know for sure, don't ask me.Both watercolor and panel painting are available. Shen Chai could tell that Xia Yu saw her coming, felt embarrassed, and wanted to go back.
'Watercolour is not good, that kind of elegant texture can't be painted.Banhua..." After Shen Chai's reminder, she also thought of it.She wants to try.
In Shen Chai's laptop, the folder dedicated to Xia Yu has already stored hundreds of files.
She smiled helplessly, but her heart was sweet.
Since she taught Xia Yu board painting, Xia Yu has been practicing crazily.As soon as school was over, she came home and wanted to borrow her computer to practice drawing.
She was very cooperative and tried her best to finish the work that needed to use the computer in the unit and leave Xia Yu the time to use the computer at night.
When they got home, Shen Chai found some dry clothes for Xia Yu to change into.
'I'll put the water in. When the water is ready, you can take a bath. Shen Chai knew that it would be impossible for her to paint now, so she gave her time to paint.She knew that Xia Yu would definitely refuse, and then said, "Good boy, I will feel sorry for you if you are sick." '
Hearing Shen Chai's gentle but undeniable strength, Xia Yu hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.
Shen Chai went to drain the water, Xia Yu picked up the board and started drawing quickly.
Without hesitation, it was the snow that gave her the feeling of beauty, and the board gave her a way to express beauty.
The color blocks are drafted, and the layers are stacked up layer by layer.
The snow, which is so beautiful that it makes people feel distressed, is stained with the warmth of the lights, clear and elegant.The snowflakes are one by one, with a light texture, without the slightest impression, so exquisite.
Like an ethereal and clear fairy tale world, no tears, no pain, everything is beautiful.
A strong desire to express, like fireworks in the dark night, flashes across the sky.For a moment of splendor, the black night sky regained that lonely tranquility.
Xia Yu gently put down the pen, and sighed inaudibly.
'The water is ready, let's take a bath, hurry up. ' Shen Chai's voice came from outside.
Xia Yu woke up from her world, her eyes were blank.
She walked slowly to the bathroom, Shen Chai smiled at her and walked out, she walked in as if she didn't feel it.
She numbly took off her clothes and threw them one by one into the basket.With a sacrificial posture, he sat in the small bathtub.
Her empty eyes looked at the uneven ceiling.
The bathroom of Shen Chai's house is decorated in a typical Japanese style, with a sink and a bathtub in one piece, and she just stared blankly at it.It's as if the soul is still in the painting.
Xia Yu went into the bathroom and didn't come out for a long time, Shen Chai estimated the water temperature and walked over.
Shen Chai knocked on the door and heard that Xia Yu didn't reply, so she pushed the door open and went in.
She sensed something was wrong with Xia Yu, very wrong.She is almost used to it, Xia Yu always does this when she is absorbed in painting or finishes a work that she cares about.
She saw Xia Yu soaking in the bathtub naked, with her undeveloped curves and thin bones completely presented in front of her eyes, which made her feel distressed.Xia Yu's face was flushed red from the blisters, but she didn't show any expression.Her long hair floated behind her like seaweed, with an indescribable beauty, just like the little mermaid in Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales, about to turn into bubbles and leave this world.
In front of this ketone body, Shen Chai didn't have any other dirty thoughts.The only thing that shouldn't be is that she wants to keep Xia Yu by her side forever and not let her suffer any more.
She laughed at her unrealistic thoughts, raised her forehead, let's start by fattening her up, she thought so.
'Xia Yu, Xia Yu. Shen Chai shouted twice before Xia Yu came back to her senses and looked at Xia Yu with confused eyes.
Where is she? Looking at the water in front of her, she suddenly remembered something, and then looked at Shen Chai in front of her, blushing.
Just now, she didn't know if she was distracted or fell asleep.
She suddenly remembered that she was still sitting naked in the bathtub, and she felt ashamed and blushed again.
Shen Chai looked at her face and raised the corners of her lips, "They're all women, why are you shy. '
Xia Yu's face turned even redder, of course she was shy, she was lying naked without clothes, and then looked at Shen Chai, she was as calm and casual as ever.
She hurriedly stood up from the water, the water drops dripping off her body.The bewilderment and depression just now were swept away and replaced by embarrassment.
She took a white bath towel and wiped it hastily.
Shen Chai stopped talking, folded her hands on her chest, and watched playfully from the side.
She quickly changed into her bathrobe, tried her best to pretend not to see it, and turned around to go out.
Shen Chai didn't move in reality, just laughed.Seeing that Xia Yu was about to go out, he said, "Wait a minute, don't go out yet."I'll blow your hair before you go out. If you don't dry your hair, it will curl up when you sleep. '
Xia Yu's face that had just regained her composure turned red again, and she even forgot to blow-dry her hair.Usually she is used to showering and drying before going to bed, otherwise she must be very messy when she wakes up the next day.
She nodded and stood still in front of the mirror.
Seeing that she acquiesced, Shen Chai found the hair dryer from the drawer, plugged it in, and adjusted the appropriate gear.
She picked up Xia Yu's long hair, which was as flexible as water plants, and gently picked it up from the root to the end of the hair, and the silky touch still remained in the middle.
Xia Yu froze, feeling a tiny electric current flow from the top of her head to her whole body.
She raised her head and looked at Shen Chai through the mirror.A sharp-edged face, a high nose bridge, and thin lips.The makeup on his face has not been removed, and his eyes are extremely beautiful.There is an indescribably handsome and wild beauty.
Shen Chai, who was concentrating on drying her hair, noticed Xia Yu's eyes, and she also looked at her through the mirror.
Shen Chai carefully looked at Xia Yu's face in the mirror, she was still so good-looking, so endearing, as if she would never tire of seeing her, with smooth skin, soft facial features, and the beauty of spring water.But it seems that something has changed, and there is an atmosphere of gradually becoming mature.
Xia Yu suddenly saw Shen Chai looking at her, and suddenly lowered her head, a little embarrassed.
Time is quiet, but that's it. It's good to be with her like this, even if you don't do anything.
The cacophony of the hair dryer stopped, Xia Yu turned her head slowly, looked at Shen Chai and smiled.
With such a person to accompany, she will never be at a loss, she smiled.
