This Omega is Sweet and Wild - Chap 91
Chap 91
When they met, Li Cheng told Xiao Yiheng the departure time. Unfortunately, that day happened to be the first day of the winter camp of the Academy of Fine Arts in Hua Country.
They couldn’t ask for leave on the first day of the camp, especially since Xiao Yiheng was a “transfer student”. As a result, he was destined not to be able to see his boyfriend off at the airport.
“If you don’t want to see me off, then don’t,” Li Cheng said in a relaxed tone. “Besides, there are hundreds of us flying over on a chartered plane. The scene will definitely be chaotic. Even if you get to the airport, you probably won’t be able to find me among the hundreds of people wearing team uniforms.”
Although he said that, Li Cheng still felt a little lonely.
Xiao Yiheng stretched his hand over the railing and rubbed the wrinkles between his eyebrows. “Although I can’t see you off, I prepared a gift for you.”
As he said that, Xiao Yiheng seemed to be performing magic. A flat square box appeared out of nowhere. The flat box was about the size of two hands put together. It was wrapped in beautiful wrapping paper, and the top was decorated with an orange ribbon.
Li Cheng’s eyes widened. He asked curiously and excitedly, “Why did you suddenly think of giving me a gift?”
Xiao Yiheng replied, “It’s not sudden. In fact, I’ve been planning this for a long time.
Isn’t your birthday coming soon? I calculated the date. You should be in Ao Country at that time. I can’t celebrate with you, so this is an early birthday gift for you. ”
An adult’s birthday had a special meaning. Xiao Yiheng crossed thousands of miles on his 18th birthday to give himself a thrilling adventure. On Li Cheng’s birthday, Xiao Yiheng wanted to give him a surprise that he would never forget until he was 80 years old.
Hearing this, Li Cheng couldn’t wait to take the flat box. He couldn’t wait to open it and take a look.
“Don’t open it now,” Xiao Yiheng held his hand. “Wait until your birthday.”
Li Cheng curled his lips and reluctantly agreed. However, with his impatient temper, how could he hold back?
Every day, he would take out the small gift and take a look at it. He was so greedy that his heart was scratching, but he couldn’t bear to open it in advance.
Under the temptation of the gift, Li Cheng was not even that nervous about the upcoming competition.
On the day they boarded the plane, Li Cheng specially stuffed the gift into his backpack. He was reluctant to check it in with his other luggage, fearing that it would be broken if it fell.
The flight from the capital of Hua Country to the capital of Ao Country was ten hours long. It didn’t take long for the excitement of the team members to fade.
Most of the team members had never been on such a long flight before. Everyone had long legs, so they felt uncomfortable all over as they curled up in the narrow economy class seats.
In the beginning, everyone gathered together to chat and play games. However, as the lights in the cabin dimmed, fatigue gradually overwhelmed them. The originally noisy cabin became quiet. Everyone could not help but fall asleep one by one.
When they boarded the plane, Zhou Jian deliberately swapped seats with the other team members and got the opportunity to sit next to Li Cheng.
Along the way, Zhou Jian kept talking about the local customs and customs of Ao Country. He knew that Li Cheng was playful, so he wanted to arouse Li Cheng’s interest. After the competition, the two of them would find a chance to go out and play.
However, Li Cheng’s mind was now full of the gift in his backpack. How could he spare any energy to listen to what Zhou Jian was saying?
Zhou Jian wasted a lot of time talking, but Li Cheng’s words all went in one ear and out the other. He just perfunctorily responded.
Poor Alpha sang a one-man show for a long time. Seeing that he couldn’t arouse Li Cheng’s interest, he had no choice but to shut up.
“… My legs are a little numb after sitting for so long. I’ll go to the front and walk around.” Zhou Jian got up from his seat.
After Zhou Jian left, Li Cheng finally couldn’t bear the feeling of a hundred claws scratching his heart. Seeing that the other teammates were all sleeping, he immediately opened his backpack and took out the beautifully wrapped gift box.
Anyway … Anyway, no one was paying attention to him now. He could secretly open it. If no one saw it, it would be equivalent to nothing happening!
Xiao Yiheng wouldn’t know!
Li Cheng opened the gift very “boldly”. He tore off the ribbon and tore open the packaging. Soon, the flat box revealed its true appearance.
There was a sentence written on the flat box — “Little Liar, I think you will definitely open the gift in advance.”
Li Cheng: “… Damn.”
Xiao Yiheng guessed it right.
As a result, Li Cheng was even more curious about the treasure in the box.
He took a deep breath and gently lifted the lid of the box a little. He peered inside with curiosity and nervousness.
Unexpectedly, there was a hardcover book in the box.
The hardcover book looked ordinary, but Li Cheng recognized it at a glance — Li Cheng once acted as a mannequin for Xiao Yiheng. At that time, Xiao Yiheng didn’t take out a drawing board, but took out a sketchbook.
At that time, Li Cheng wanted to see what was in the sketchbook, but Xiao Yiheng deliberately put the sketchbook away.
So … this book is …?
Li Cheng’s heart skipped a beat. His fingers trembled as he took the hardcover sketchbook out of the box. Then, he gathered his courage and turned to the first page.
On the title page, the handsome handwriting came into view.
“After knowing you, I know what the color of happiness is.
Chengcheng, happy 18th birthday. ”
Li Cheng stared at the two lines of words. The corners of his mouth lifted, but he desperately suppressed it.
… I didn’t expect Xiao Yiheng to be so romantic.
Li Cheng wiped his palms clean on his pants, then carefully continued to turn the pages.
The thick sketchbook had nearly a hundred pages. The last time Li Cheng saw this book, Xiao Yiheng had just used the first few pages. But now, the entire sketchbook was used up. Every page, every corner, and every blank space was filled with Xiao Yiheng’s brush.
There was only one subject in his brush — Li Cheng.
Li Cheng’s hands and feet; Li Cheng’s eyebrows and eyes; Li Cheng’s arms that cut through the waves.
This book recorded many of Li Cheng’s expressions. Some were laughing heartily, some were angry, some were frowning, some were angry, some were guilty, some were embarrassed, some were arrogant, and some were unruly …
Li Cheng didn’t know that he could have so many expressions.
The first half of the book was filled with small drawings, as if they were fragments of memories scattered all over the floor. As the number of pages in the book gradually increased, scenes gradually appeared one after another.
When they first met, Li Cheng fell from the sky and landed in Xiao Yiheng’s arms. When they huddled together in an alley to avoid the police. When they took Xiao Lingmeng to sunbathe, when they went to the water park with Youyou. When they kissed each other after the physical health class, when they were in a state of confusion in the art classroom, when they were stood up for breakfast, and when they said goodnight countless times through the phone …
These were all recorded by Xiao Yiheng, stroke by stroke, bit by bit.
Each sketch represented a memory. These small, trivial, brilliant, and unforgettable memories were forever fixed on the page.
It turned out that they had already experienced so many things together.
Li Cheng held the book as if it was the most precious thing in the world.
He never thought that Xiao Yiheng’s eighteenth birthday gift to him would be so precious.
He looked at the sketches carefully and looked at the lines that were full of affection. It was as if he could see the way Xiao Yiheng drew them.
Slowly, the book turned to the last page.
The content of the last page was once again beyond Li Cheng’s expectations.
Xiao Yiheng drew the scene on his eighteenth birthday. They met each other across the fence. The blond boy in the drawing was holding a strange-looking “birthday cake”, and his eyes were shining.
Li Cheng thought, ‘So that’s how he looks at Xiao Yiheng?’
Next to the drawing, Li Cheng saw the words left by Alpha again.
“I hope that I will meet someone.
He is an existence that is out of reach, but also within reach.
He wants to be far away from me. He will stand at the top of the world, urging me to keep moving forward and making me a better person.
He wants to be close to me. When I am tired and hurt and want to stop, he will be able to take my hand and lead me out of tiredness and confusion.
— Later.
Li Cheng, I met you. ”
Li Cheng’s fingers touched the words on the page. Slowly, one by one, he stroked the words.
Li Cheng thought, ‘He will do it.’
He will become the person in Xiao Yiheng’s life that is out of reach, but also within reach.
At the same time, at the Academy of Fine Arts in Hua Country.
Xiao Yiheng carried the drawing board on his back, the paint box and the brush in his hand, and walked into the school gate.
He seemed to feel something and looked up at the sky. The sky was clear, and there was only a long white trail across the blue sky. It was the trail left by the plane.
Xiao Yiheng thought, ‘Where is Chengcheng’s plane now?’
From today on, he was afraid that he could only know about Li Cheng from the news.
Just as he was lost in thought, a hand fell on his shoulder.
“Hey, classmate, are you also here to participate in the winter camp?” A hearty female voice sounded behind him.
Xiao Yiheng looked back and saw that three young people had appeared behind him. Two girls and one boy, all of them carrying drawing boards like him.
They were dressed very fashionably. The girl who greeted him even dyed her hair half black and half pink. Although the other two students were not as exaggerated as her, they also had a row of accessories hanging from their ears.
Compared to them, Xiao Yiheng, who was wearing jeans and a long down jacket, really looked like a “top student”.
The girl with black and pink hair who greeted him was a Beta. She saw Xiao Yiheng standing in the middle of the road with a drawing board on his back, so she took the initiative to talk to him.
But she never expected that Xiao Yiheng would be so good-looking.
When he turned around, the world seemed to have been slowed down. That pair of beautiful phoenix eyes were as clear as crystal. Just one look from him, and the girl’s heart almost stopped beating.
“Yes.”
Xiao Yiheng was not an easy-going person. On the contrary, he always deliberately kept a distance from people he met for the first time.
The girl did not seem to notice his indifference and warmly chatted with him: “Listening to your accent, you’re not a local right?
Which school are you from?
Who’s your teacher? ”
Xiao Yiheng evaded the question and answered lightly: “I’m from Hua Cheng.” He threw the topic back, “What about you?”
The girl wanted to pour out all her information and proudly said: “We, we’re all from Huamei Affiliated High School!
Our teacher is Principal Lin’s student! ”
She did have the right to be proud.
Huamei Affiliated High School was an affiliated high school of Hua Country’s Academy of Fine Arts. It was the top middle school of fine arts in the country. It cultivated a large number of outstanding students and had been continuously “supplying blood” to the country.
Many people said that as long as you could get into Huamei Affiliated High School, you would have half a foot in the door of Hua Country’s Academy of Fine Arts.
Take this winter camp for example. There were a total of 50 people from all directions, and Huamei Affiliated High School took up 15 spots!
The Principal Lin she mentioned was the honorary principal of Hua Country’s Academy of Fine Arts. She had countless students in her life and was known as “Lin Tao Li”.
Xiao Yiheng said that he was from Hua Cheng, so the girl tacitly agreed that he was studying at “Hua Cheng Academy of Fine Arts Affiliated High School”.
Although “Hua Cheng Academy of Fine Arts Affiliated High School” and “Hua Country’s Academy of Fine Arts Affiliated High School” only differed by one word, there was a big difference in status.
The girl thought with some pity that although Xiao Yiheng was good-looking, his drawing skills were average.
But it didn’t matter. It was enough as long as a handsome guy was good-looking!
The girl chattered non-stop on the way. Her two classmates seemed to be used to her chatter and did not interrupt her.
The girl said to Xiao Yiheng: “Oh right, did you hear that there’s one more person in our winter camp this year?”
Xiao Yiheng: “Oh, really?”
“Ah, I forgot. You’re from another city, so you probably haven’t heard about this.”
The girl patted her forehead and said mysteriously, “We recruited a total of 50 people for this winter camp, and the announcement on the website also said that there were 50 people.
But our teacher told me that Principal Lin opened the ‘back door’ for someone this time! ”
“…”
“That person is not an art student at all, and he hasn’t participated in any competitions!
I don’t know how he got to know Principal Lin’s student and got a recommendation letter from Principal Lin, so he can attend the winter camp without taking the exam. “The girl was so angry that her teeth were itching.” I hate people who get in through the back door the most!
They don’t paint properly and only think about those crooked ways. I’ve already discussed it with my classmates. When the camp starts, we’ll unite together to isolate that person!
I’d like to see what kind of ability that person who got in through the back door has to be able to trick a recommendation letter from Principal Lin! ”
“…”
“What do you think?” The girl saw that Xiao Yiheng did not speak, so she pushed his arm.
Xiao Yiheng: “What do you mean?”
“When you heard this, do you feel very indignant?
Do you want to join us and isolate that person who got in through the back door? ”
Xiao Yiheng said lightly: “Sorry, I can’t.”
The girl did not expect Xiao Yiheng to refuse. She was dumbfounded and asked in disbelief: “Why, why?”
Why?
… Of course, it was because her plan was too naive, too easy, and too full of loopholes.
Xiao Yiheng turned to look at her and said calmly: “Because I really can’t think of how to isolate myself.”
The girl:?????
