Chapter 176 174. I do whatever you want

In the brightly lit study room, Wang Hao's ethereal singing voice wafted from the speakers, and her ethereal crooning was very calming.

Sitting in front of the workbench, Chen Li'an gently scraped a layer of thin iron wire bent into a semicircle on the unfinished sculpture, and the originally awkward places became harmonious in an instant.

There is a whole set of carving knives on the workbench, but Chen Li'an doesn't like to use those things now, and they are far less convenient than the fine wire he made himself.

There is a big difference between Eastern and Western sculptures. Generally speaking, Chen Li'an thinks that he is not good enough to get in touch with traditional domestic sculptures. Whether it is wood carving or stone carving, it is not easy to learn.

In comparison, Western sculpture is easy to get started with, and it is very suitable for modern society.

However, modern sculpture is in a very contradictory state. It is alienated from society and criticizes industrial civilization, but also eager to use modern materials and techniques to help sculpture achieve better spatial breakthroughs.

Artists have always been a group of contradictory people, and all art and culture will go through such a contradictory process before metamorphosis.

This is especially true of social change, since contradictions are the root cause of development.

Chen Li'an is now also in a stage of contradiction and confusion in his life. He has no inspiration for painting at all. He tried painting a few times, but in the end he tore it up dissatisfied.

The current sculptures do not have any creativity, they are simply using sculptures to soothe their hearts.

Sitting on a chair, little by little, turning the soft and shapeless clay into a shaped and three-dimensional statue will make Chen Li'an feel a kind of growth.

The process of sculpture will calm Chen Li'an's confused heart a lot.

Time unknowingly passed through the wire in Chen Li'an's hands bit by bit, and the sky outside gradually dimmed.

When the time came to 06:30, Chen Li'an heard a knock on the door from outside the study, so he put down the wire in his hand, picked up the rag on the table and wiped his hands casually.

The sludge was very sticky, and it was difficult to wipe it off when it got on your hands, but Chen Li'an didn't care, anyway, it would continue later, so he didn't need to wash his hands deliberately.

Chen Li'an came to the entrance, opened the door and looked at Chen Zihan, who was well-dressed outside the door. He was not surprised that she came here alone. As for whether she asked Fudalong, Chen Li'an could guess.

Chen Zihan gently brushed his hair, lifted the fruit in his hand and said, "This is my first time here, I bought you some fruit."

This surprised Chen Li'an, he reached out to take the fruit and turned sideways and said, "Please come in, thank you for the fruit."

Chen Zihan walked in and looked at the luxuriously decorated house curiously. He couldn't help but be amazed. Standing on the carpet at the door and looking at the clean floor, he asked a little embarrassedly, "Are there any slippers that I can change?"

Chen Li'an looked down at the brown boots on Chen Zihan's feet, then bent down and took out a pair of spare slippers and put them in front of her.

Chen Zihan looked at the pair of pink slippers on the ground, pursed his lips and wondered why Chen Li'an had women's slippers, but he still grabbed Chen Li'an's arm as planned and said, "Help me, these shoes are not easy to take off."

Chen Li'an dragged Chen Zihan's arm, and watched quietly as she took off her long boots, revealing her slender calves and little feet in white cotton socks.

The little toes under the white cotton socks are as round and cute as orange petals. The moment they took off the shoes, they twisted restlessly, as if they were calling for freedom after seeing the sun again.

Chen Li'an sniffed his nose subconsciously, but he didn't smell any strange smell. It is estimated that Chen Zihan hadn't put on the boots for a long time and hadn't walked much.

Chen Zihan, who was bending over to change his shoes, looked up and noticed Chen Li'an's movement, a flash of embarrassment flashed in his eyes, then he lowered his head and sniffed lightly, making sure that he didn't smell any strange smell, then raised his head and looked at Chen Li'an in puzzlement .

Seeing that there was no strange expression on Chen Li'an's face, Chen Zihan breathed a sigh of relief. He was glad that he specially changed into new socks and shoes before coming here, and he didn't dare to walk too fast for fear that he would sweat.

After Chen Zihan took off both boots and put his feet in the soft slippers, he felt a sense of security, and he no longer worried about Chen Li'an's eyes.

It is similar to the sense of security that will not be revealed even if one's socks are really torn or have a strange smell.

An inadvertent little action will make people nervous, and a pair of small slippers will give people a sense of security.

Man is a very strange creature with too many thoughts and emotions, and even a special discipline of psychology will be born, which shows the complexity of human psychology and the dangerous situation that urgently needs to be rescued.

After arriving at the living room, Chen Zihan had a clear view of the whole room. Looking at the luxurious white leather sofa, the woolen carpet on the floor, and several exquisitely framed oil paintings hanging on the wall, she fell in love with this place in that instant.

In the restaurant, Chen Li'an took a look at the fruit that Chen Zihan bought. It was a few catties of oranges, which looked ugly and sweet.

Chen Li'an glanced at the sludge on his hands, and gave up the idea of ​​trying whether the oranges were sweet or not.After putting the oranges on the table, he went to the living room and asked Chen Zihan to sit down.

Chen Zihan sat on the sofa with his legs together, looking very cute.

"Are you sure you want to watch The Lion King?" Chen Li'an walked to the TV and asked.

Chen Zihan hummed, Chen Li'an bent over and took out the disc and put it into the VCD, and thoughtfully brought snacks and soda for Chen Zihan.

Sitting on the sofa, Chen Zihan felt a little cramped. Seeing Chen Li'an preparing snacks and soft drinks so thoughtfully, the tension in his heart dissipated a lot. His eyes followed Chen Li'an's figure closely, expecting him to nestle on the sofa with him and watch a movie.

It would be even better if you could feed each other treats and drink a bottle of soda!

Under the dim light of the TV, Chen Zihan's cheeks were slightly flushed, which girl wouldn't be pregnant.

Watch a movie twice?Chen Li'an would never do this kind of thing.

Looking at the snacks and soft drinks on the coffee table, and at the opening title of The Lion King, Chen Li'an nodded in satisfaction, and then said to Chen Zihan: "Look slowly, I have work to do beforehand, the snack and soda refrigerator There are more, don't be shy."

"oh oh."

Chen Zihan nodded subconsciously, then stared at Chen Li'an, turned around and walked into the study, closing the door with a slam.

well? ? ?What is this for?
Is that what the script says?I'm not here to watch a movie at your house, I'm not watching it in the living room alone!
man!Did you make a mistake!
If it was before, Chen Li'an didn't mind watching movies with Chen Zihan, but now he just wants to make sculptures quietly and think about life along the way.

As for why Chen Zihan was asked to watch the movie, it was only because it would bring out some things in his life that had nothing to do with philosophy and art, and it would be a good way to adjust his mood.

Chen Li'an also wanted to go and find some other good friends and sisters, but after thinking about it, he still didn't dare to go, for fear that they would be the next Gong Li.

The nightmare he had that day was still fresh in his memory, and he couldn't help being afraid when he thought about it now.

In the study room, Chen Li'an looked at Simba who was standing on the table with his head held high on the cliff, carefully sized him up, picked up the wire and continued to refine.

In the living room, Chen Zihan sat blankly on the sofa, the colorful pictures and exciting music on the TV could not attract her attention at all.

What a good cartoon!Only children like it!
In the dormitory of Nortel, Jiang Qingqing, who was lying on the bed bored, suddenly sneezed, turned over and pulled the quilt on her body, and muttered a curse, heartless Chen Zihan, left her sister to go out to play alone!
Simba and his friends on the TV were strolling happily in the forest, while Chen Zihan outside the TV was sitting alone on the sofa frowning, looking angrily at the study with the door closed.

I didn't really come to watch the movie, what should I do now.

Chen Zihan sat on the sofa for a while, but didn't dare to disturb Chen Li'an's creation, so he picked up a pack of snacks and watched TV in boredom.

It's just that looking at Chen Zihan, he was attracted by the movie, and the snacks in his hand hadn't been touched for a long time.

Hehe, the cartoon is quite interesting, Chen Zihan watched the movie with relish, and even forgot his purpose of coming here.

More than an hour later, Chen Zihan looked at Simba, who had become the king of the forest, with reddish eyes, as if inspired by Simba's courage to move forward, and finally remembered why he came here.

Chen Zihan came back to his senses and looked at the half-eaten chocolate bar in his hand, put it on the table, stood up and wandered around in the living room.

The living room and dining room are very clean, which shows that Chen Li'an is a person who pays attention to hygiene and is not lazy. There are traces of cooking in the kitchen, and there are a lot of ingredients in the refrigerator, which shows that he is a person who can enjoy life.

There are a few books on the bedside in the bedroom, all of which have the marks of reading, which shows that he is a person with culture and good habits. The clothes in the closet are neat and hung in different categories, which shows that he is an organized person.

There is only one set of toiletries in the bathroom, which means he lives alone! ! !
This is the most important!However, I didn't see any photos in the whole room, no photos with my family and no photos of myself. This shows that he has a bad relationship with his family, and he is not a narcissist?
Chen Zihan was not sure about the last point, but through this circle of observation, she found that Chen Li'an really perfectly matched all her fantasies about the other half.

It's just perfect, the only flaw is that it can be a bit nasty.

Chen Zihan was sure that she was attractive to Chen Li'an. She could feel Chen Li'an's appreciation for her in school and eating together.

It's just that she couldn't figure out why Chen Li'an left himself here and went to create by himself, and couldn't stop the inspiration?
It didn't look very eager before, so it was intentional?Want to take the initiative?
Chen Zihan felt as if he had figured out what Chen Li'an was thinking, and came to Chen Li'an's study with light steps, raised his hand to knock on the door, but was afraid that he would disturb Chen Li'an, so he raised his hand, held the handle and gently twisted it away. a gap.

Chen Zihan bent over and peeked inside, and found that Chen Li'an was playing with mud intently.

Hmm. Just playing with mud, Chen Zihan is sure about that!Isn't what Chen Li'an is holding in his hand is mud, kneading and kneading, looking extremely happy.

Is there any mistake, let her such a pure, beautiful and invincible girl not play, what kind of mud is she playing with!

Knead me and pinch me if you have the ability!Are you a child of seven or eight years old? !

For a child like Chen Li'an who is incompetent, Chen Zihan immediately decided to show him some color, and let him know that beautiful girls are much more interesting than mud!
Chen Zihan pushed open the door and walked in, walked straight in front of Chen Li'an, raised his legs and sat down on Chen Li'an's workbench.

Looking at Chen Zihan who came to disturb him, Chen Li'an frowned, filled the sludge in his hands onto the cliff at Simba's feet, wiped it with his fingers a few times, and then raised his head to look at Chen Zihan.

Chen Zihan looked down at Chen Li'an, raised his hand and gently unbuttoned a shirt, bent down to look into Chen Li'an's eyes and asked, "Am I not as attractive as mud?"

Glancing at the spring light on Chen Zihan's neckline, Chen Li'an shook his head calmly, his eyes calm as if affirming an extremely correct fact.

Chen Zihan stared at Chen Li'an with wide eyes and couldn't tell for a while whether he was lying or if he really thought he was not as attractive as mud.

Are all boys so naive, playing with mud or picking up branches to pretend to be heroes.But you are in your 20s, why are you still like this?

Chen Li'an leaned on the back of the chair, grabbed a piece of sludge and kneaded it in his hands, his fingers were covered with gray sludge, he didn't pay any attention to Chen Zihan's resentment.

When I want to create or study, no one is attractive, not even Bai Qing, let alone Chen Zihan.

Chen Li'an's calm gaze made Chen Zihan feel a little apprehensive, he couldn't help but get off the workbench, and buttoned his collar in a panic.

I'm really dizzy, how could I do such a stupid thing on impulse!Chen Zihan regrets it now,
Chen Li'an looked at Chen Zihan like this, then sat up and said seriously: "First of all, this is not playing with mud, this is sculpture, secondly, I don't like others to disturb my creation, and lastly, there are many movie CDs out there, if you are bored, you can choose one Watch a favorite movie, or go back to school now."

Facing Chen Li'an's serious and majestic appearance, Chen Zihan timidly lowered his head like a primary school student in training. After he finished speaking, he whispered sorry, and then ran away quickly.

After running out of the study, Chen Zihan's heart couldn't stop beating. He felt that Chen Li'an just now was so magical that he almost couldn't help but bow and bow his head to admit his mistake.

"Fortunately, it's under control." Chen Zihan patted his chest lightly, and suddenly realized that he still admitted his mistake and said he was sorry, it was all right.

"Obviously about the same age as me, why does he have the majesty of a superior person?" Chen Zihan turned his head and glanced at the open door of the study room, hesitated for a while, then went back, showed a cute smile at Chen Li'an, and said in a low voice : "I'll close the door for you."

Chen Li'an raised his head and glanced at Chen Zihan, hummed, then lowered his head and continued working.

Chen Zihan saw that Chen Li'an had no other reaction, so he carefully closed the door. His fingers holding the handle were very hard, but the speed of closing the door was very slow. After closing the door gently, he couldn't help but let out a soft breath.

Chen Li'an in the room didn't care about Chen Zihan's mood outside, he just kneaded the sludge and continued to fill the cliff under Simba's feet.

Not long after, Chen Li'an heard the sound of the TV in the living room and then gradually lowered. He raised his head and smiled slightly, and continued to work.

Chen Zihan in the living room turned down the volume with the remote control, then picked up a chocolate bar and took a bite, but his eyes were not on the TV but in the direction of the study, wondering what he was thinking.

In the room, Chen Li'an was thinking about whether to destroy the Simba that was just made in front of him. If someone knew that the first sculpture of the great artist Chen Li'an was the Lion King, would he think it was unartistic?

After thinking for a short two seconds, Chen Li'an gave up this idea. If it really ruins this work and refuses to admit it, then it is really unartistic.

Chen Li'an laughed self-deprecatingly. There is indeed something wrong with his mentality recently. If he hadn't had such thoughts before.

what is going on actually?
Chen Li'an rubbed the sludge on his fingers, lost in thought.
Is it because Gong Li is pregnant?Chen Li'an thought of this for the first time, and then shook his head. This was only one of the reasons.

Perhaps it is because of Director Yang's words that art is a language, but it has completely disappeared in China.

Chen Li'an thought about various problems over and over again, while examining himself, reminding each other that he seemed to be timid after returning from Venice.

I started to add politics and business to art, and I started to take the initiative to cater to it. I forgot my original intention to engage in art. At that time, wasn’t it just for fun and satisfaction.

Now I almost lost my original intention.

I don't lack money, and I don't have a picture name, why should I think about those who have nothing.

Chen Li'an took a deep breath, solemnly picked up the little Simba on the workbench, and put it on his IDE bookshelf.

When the studio is ready, it is immediately sent to drying to complete the final step.

Use this Simba to remind yourself not to lose courage, not to be confused, but to move forward bravely!

Chen Li'an looked at the sludge on his hands, opened the door of the study and came to the living room, looked at Chen Zihan who was sleeping on the sofa, shook his head slightly, wondering why she didn't go back to the dormitory to sleep.

Do you just believe in yourself?But I have changed now.

Chen Li'an glanced at Chen Zihan, who was curled up on the sofa and pouted unconsciously, and suspected that she had done nothing good in her dream.

Chen Li'an went to the bathroom and washed his hands with soap over and over again until the sludge under the nails was cleaned, then he wiped his hands and came to the living room, squatting opposite Chen Zihan and looking at her slightly trembling long eyelashes.

Chen Zihan, who had just woken up, felt so nervous that he was going to die, but he still closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. He was looking forward to what Chen Li'an would do to him, so that he could justifiably rely on him!

"Get up if you haven't fallen asleep. It's almost eleven o'clock now, and you can't go back to school."

Chen Li'an's voice rang in Chen Zihan's ears. Chen Zihan, who was pretending to sleep, pursed his mouth and opened his eyes. Seeing Chen Li'an's serious face, he immediately pursed his lips and sat up obediently.

"Okay, let's talk, what are you going to do tonight?" Chen Li'an sat down across from Chen Zihan and asked.

Chen Zihan slightly raised his head and glanced at Chen Li'an, then said in a low voice, "Whatever you want to do."
