Chapter 13
"Why? Teacher Ye! We really love ancient buildings! We really want to win!"

Seeing Ye Fangyu turn around to leave, Chu Mingchen was a little anxious, so he simply made the matter very serious:
"But now there is no other mentor to guide us. If even you despise us, then we will really miss the game! You can help us~"

"There are so many teachers in Tianyang School of Architecture, I'm the only one missing." Although Ye Fangyu was not moved by these words, her tone was still slightly relaxed, "There are two days left before the deadline for registration, please ask Dean Tan to recommend another one. Teacher, there is still time."

"Ms. Ye! We sincerely ask you to be our mentor. If you don't want to take us because you think we have no chance of winning, then you can look at the project proposal before refusing."

He Ying said, holding the hand-painted drawings that had been prepared in front of Ye Fangyu with both hands.

"I won't read these, you should ask someone else to be smart." Ye Fangyu raised her hand and slowly pushed away the drawings, before the other three could speak, she turned and walked out of the classroom.

Against the backdrop of the surrounding environment, her back is so slender and indifferent.

Just like the crimson lacquer gold satin short-sleeved cheongsam on her body, it always looks out of place among the modern attires of Tianyang University.

"Ms. Ye" Tang Guoguo felt that her grades were too poor, and wanted to say something, but she was afraid that her words would not be convincing, so she stopped at the door of the classroom.

Gu Zhaodi didn't like to force others to make things difficult for her, so she stood there silently.

On the contrary, Lou Xinyue, hearing the sound of "dongdong" of the high heels getting farther and farther away, pouted anxiously: "Oh!~ Why is this Teacher Ye so difficult to deal with? You should think of a way!"

"I'll talk about it again." He Ying said and chased him out.

But only halfway there, I heard a roar behind me, resounding throughout the corridor: "You reject us! There must be a decent reason!"

Ye Fangyu in front stopped abruptly.

"Ms. Ye, Chu Mingchen, he, he didn't do it on purpose, so don't blame him."

He Ying was so shocked that he couldn't speak coherently, and hurriedly turned around and waved his hands, trying to stop Chu Mingchen from continuing.

But the voice behind her didn't stop: "He Ying is the only student in the first ancient architecture major, and her theoretical knowledge is very good! This ancient architecture competition is very important to her! But she didn't want to use western ancient buildings as entries. I was kicked out of the team!"

Chu Mingchen spoke more and more vigorously, with sincerity in his puzzled tone:

"Gu Zhaodi needs to earn tuition by herself, but she still gave up her part-time job to participate in the competition. Tang Guoguo has been ridiculed all day long, and now she urgently needs to use this competition to prove herself. Lou Xinyue may be suspected of playing tickets, but she is enthusiastic and generous , and have been going all out for the competition. Only me, because of skipping classes and retaking courses, they have no mentor. Professor Tan said that only you can help us now, but why are you unwilling to listen to us and give us a chance? "

In He Ying's ears, his words were no different from moral kidnapping.

The few people were not fully sure in the first place, so they persuaded Ye Fangyu to be their mentor.After all his nonsense now, I'm afraid he won't even have the chance to continue his elective courses.

He Ying hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over: "I'm sorry, Teacher Ye, Chu Mingchen didn't mean to contradict you, he was just too anxious."

However, Ye Fangyu's emotions were even more excited than Chu Mingchen's.

"Okay, since you really want to know the reason, then I'll tell you!"

She suddenly turned around, her swan-like neck raised proudly in the collar of her cheongsam:
"You keep saying that you love ancient buildings! But how much do you know about the history of ancient buildings? You only see ancient buildings standing there and regard them as scenic spots and check-in places. Do you know that in order to create this great Architecture, how much effort and price did the ancient people have to pay? How many great architects in history were in charge of the overall situation, but they didn’t even leave their names? How many times have you read "Building French"? Do you know the original text of "Zhai Jing"? Do you know what a frame saw is? What is an ink fountain? Do you know how many types of planes there are?"

Facing five speechless students.

Ye Fangyu took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down:

"Ancient buildings have never been as simple and beautiful as you imagined, drawing blueprints and making models in the classroom. Nor should they become tools for proving themselves and gaining fame as you say! They are the crystallization of wisdom. It is beautiful and sacred and cannot be desecrated, if you only want to participate in this competition for rankings and bonuses!"

"Then I advise you to give up!"

The slightly trembling voice, together with every word Ye Fangyu said, left a heavy blow in the hearts of the five people.

When they came back to their senses and wanted to say something, the crimson red had already turned around the intersection and disappeared on the sunny stairs.

In a blink of an eye, it was lunch time.

But in the face of the dazzling array of delicacies on the tables in the cafeteria, no one moved their chopsticks.

Tang Guoguo said timidly: "I always feel that I am the one that Teacher Ye said, who wants to prove himself and gain fame."

"Don't say that, I'm doing it for money, isn't it more shameful?" Gu Zhaodi quickly comforted her.

"Then do we really want to give up the game?" Tang Guoguo was afraid that he would drag everyone down.

"Why did you give up?"

Chu Mingchen disagreed:

"Participating in competitions is inherently winning or losing, rankings, and bonuses. If even earning a ranking is called fishing for fame, and winning bonuses is shameful, how many people are willing to seriously compete? No one competes, and ancient buildings are even less so. Got it? When the ancient buildings are gone, who will go to see "Zhai Jing" and "Yuan Ye"?"

These words reached Lou Xinyue's heart.

"I think Mrs. Ye is too unreal." She dragged her cheek with her left hand and picked up the rice in the bowl with chopsticks with her right hand, "My dad said that if there is no money, there will be many ancient architectural sites that cannot be repaired and preserved. , and no one is willing to learn ancient architecture. After all, there are few people as stupid as He Ying in this society."

After she finished speaking, she raised her chin towards He Ying who was writing furiously at the corner of the dining table.

"Look at her, she has been writing since she sat here, and she doesn't know what to write there."

"Yes, senior sister He Ying, what are you writing?" Chu Mingchen moved over curiously.

However, He Ying just put down her pen and sat among several people holding the list of books she made:

"I think what you said makes sense. Ancient architecture is a very unpopular major. In addition, the employment prospects are not very optimistic, the salary is not high, and the number of people who apply for the exam every year is even smaller. Now it is hard to have such a competition. The best opportunity to publicize ancient architecture, we might as well fight for it with Mr. Ye."

When Lou Xinyue heard this, she was a little embarrassed: "She has such an attitude today, how can she fight for it?"

He Ying smiled and asked Chu Mingchen to circulate the list of books:
"These are all must-read books for our ancient architecture major. Many of the questions Mr. Ye said just now can be answered in the books. I think we should make more preparations so that she can see our sincerity."

Gu Zhaodi nodded first: "I think it's feasible. You can also read our civil engineering textbooks."

"There are also landscape gardens." Tang Guoguo raised his hand with a smile, "The "Yuanye" that Teacher Ye said is also a must-read for our gardening class."

"Ah?~" Lou Xinyue was unhappy when she heard it, "Then I still want to read the books of the three of you? I don't want~~"

But looking back, seeing Chu Mingchen's unlovely expression, he giggled again: "You haven't even read the books of your own professional courses, have you?"

"Is this funny?" Chu Mingchen rolled his eyes at Lou Xinyue, then looked at the other three, "These books must be read carefully, but we don't have much time. There is an elective class tomorrow afternoon, the day after tomorrow Monday is the deadline for registration, so it’s best to use the time in between to learn the basics. The most important thing is to let Teacher Ye see our ability to act, and then abandon some old-fashioned thinking.”

Several people think this idea is very reliable.

After reaching an agreement, they happily ate lunch.

Tang Guoguo has always been irritable when eating. Today, in a hurry, he accidentally dropped the boiled meat slices on his clothes, and a red oil stain suddenly appeared on his snow-white T-shirt.

He Ying on the opposite side hurriedly looked through her schoolbag to help her find tissues.

But he heard a sneer from the side:
"Brother! Look at that fat man chasing you, it's really embarrassing to be able to splash oil all over his body after eating."

Hearing this, Tang Guoguo, who was cleaning his clothes in a hurry, raised his head suddenly, and his eyes happened to collide with Wang Jinze, who was also looking up and looking this way.

Yuanyuan's cheeks were instantly flushed red.

She hung her head lower in fright.

"Pfft hahaha~" Wang Jinyuan laughed even more unscrupulously, "If it wasn't for the cancellation of the confession wall, you would have become famous in Tianyang~ Brother, aren't you a clean freak? How could you interact with such a girl~ Don't be afraid Does it taste good?~"

Wang Jinze was afraid that Tang Guoguo would be suspicious, so he didn't look in her direction, but paused and said to Wang Jinyuan, "How dare you say this? If someone hadn't hacked the confession wall, you would be punished for this kind of behavior! Usually Be careful what you say!"

"Who can prove that I did it?" Wang Jinyuan curled her lips, looked at the four people around Tang Guoguo, and spoke louder, "Brother, have you forgotten that they spilled my coffee? Can you be friends with this kind of pig head?" , are either stupid or bad!"

"If you don't provoke others, why would they pour you coffee?" Wang Jinze quickly corrected, "Stop talking nonsense, let's eat your food."

"I'm not talking nonsense."

These voices were not too loud, just enough for five people to hear clearly.

Chu Mingchen got up to teach this unqualified Wang Jinyuan a lesson, but He Ying also stood up: "I'll go with you!"

"Yes! Add me!" Lou Xinyue said, already holding the dinner plate full of vegetable soup in her hand.

This action frightened Tang Guoguo, she hurriedly got up to dissuade: "He Ying! Don't go! There are so many people in the cafeteria, don't quarrel with her because of me."

Seeing Tang Guoguo bowed his head and looked helpless, He Ying understood that the bigger the incident, the more embarrassing Tang Guoguo would be.

After thinking about it, she still pulled Chu Mingchen and Lou Xinyue to sit down: "Forget it, we still have a lot of things to do today."

"Forget it? But the girl next to her has bad breath, and if she speaks with her mouth, it pollutes the environment and affects my eating, what should I do?" Chu Mingchen could only let out a groan, and then sat back to his original place.

Lou Xinyue, who had been sullen all the time, didn't expect Chu Mingchen's mouth to be so lethal, so she couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Who knows that this Wang Jinyuan is unreasonable and unforgiving. When she heard the commotion here, she immediately got furious, got up and came to Chu Mingchen's side, and asked:

"Who are you talking about!"

Chu Mingchen immediately replied: "Whoever has a bad mouth will say that!"

"Can you say that again!"

"Oh, you admit that your mouth stinks?"

"You!" Wang Jinyuan turned around and wanted to pull Wang Jinze, "Brother! They bullied me!" She was even more annoyed when she found that Wang Jinze had already picked up the dinner plate and walked away. some.

But the moment she wanted to speak.

But Gu Zhaodi, who didn't say a word, slapped the aluminum soup bowl into aluminum pieces with one palm. The loud sound scared her and swallowed her words on the spot.

In any case, Wang Jinyuan never thought that there would be someone in the world whose flattening of a bowl is as easy as flattening a pack of tissues, but this person is still indistinguishable.

She remembered that someone said that there was a ruthless character in dormitory 3306 who had fought outside the school, and it seemed that this person must be right.

And now it's five against one, if you continue to quarrel, you won't be able to make any money.A hero doesn't take advantage of the immediate loss, Wang Jinyuan just took a look at the five people present, then picked up the dinner plate and chased after Wang Jinze disheartened.

Although the two brothers and sisters had left, Tang Guoguo still held the corner of the dirty clothes tightly, afraid of being rejected by everyone and dared not look up.

Chu Mingchen scratched his head, thinking that this silly girl really has low self-esteem to the bone.

He picked up a piece of braised pork, threw it on himself without thinking, and then yelled:
"Oops! ~ My clothes are dirty too!"

"Huh?" Tang Guoguo looked up, and saw a long brown oil stain on the collar of Chu Mingchen's light gray sweater, which was so large that it couldn't even be hidden, she was a little confused.

Can be next.

He Ying, Lou Xinyue and Gu Zhaodi also poured fruit juice, coffee and vegetable oil on their clothes.

They even said to themselves indifferently:
"Let's go! Let's go to the library to borrow books together."

"Just... go like this?"

Tang Guoguo wanted to say that he should go back to the dormitory and change clothes before going, but was dragged out of the cafeteria by several people.

Isn't it just to lose face together, what is there to be afraid of?

Faced with the strange eyes of the students, no one felt that there was something wrong, but smiled even brighter.It seems that the mottled stains on the clothes are like colorful flags, which are worth showing off.

Yeah, it's the banner of their friendship!

No one noticed that Tang Guoguo's hand tightly clutching the corner of his clothes was slowly letting go.Together with the footsteps on the petals of begonias all over the ground, they became more and more light.
