His mood when going out today is different from the previous two times.
The first time was when he first arrived, he was full of vigilance and panic, afraid of making a mistake, and being taken by the Taoist priests.
The second time was when he was forcibly taken to a wedding, he was escorted to the car in a daze, the scenery on the road became a blur, leaving no trace of impression.
But now, Shen Yuhan finds everything new and strange.
He saw the current busy situation of modern people in the morning, when waiting for the red light, he saw all kinds of people crossing the street.
Most of them are people carrying bags and wearing casual clothes, with different looks, there are old men carrying vegetables and dogs, students in school uniforms riding bicycles crossing the road, men in suits and leather shoes1西裝革履 (xī zhuāng gé lǚ): (esp. of a person) trendy in their taste of clothing; dressed in Western-style clothes; impeccably attired; in Western dress and leather shoes., beautiful ladies in tight-fitting dresses, there are also stylish girls in ripped pants, all kinds of shapes and postures2千姿百態 (qiān zī bǎi tài): in different poses and with different expressions; in thousands of postures (idiom); to have numerous forms and variations; of all kinds of shapes and postures; in different poses and with different expressions., he have a panoramic view.
Shen Yuhan finally saw all kinds3形形色色 (xíng xíng sè sè): of all hues; all kinds of; assorted and varied; of every shade and description; of every colour and hue; of all sorts/kinds/manners/forms; Refers to a variety of, there are many kinds. of people who had appeared on the TV.
In a different state of mind, Shen Yuhan felt yearning for everything he looked at, even the signs on the roadside were extremely interesting to him.
Shen Yuhan pointed to a big golden retriever holding a stick: “Husband, look at that dog.”
Today, the driver was driving the car, it was Shan Qihuan’s habit to look at his itinerary for the day while riding in the car.
Shan Qihuan followed the direction of Shen Yuhan’s finger and looked over: “Golden Retriever, do you want to raise it?”
So it’s possible to raise them? In fact, Shen Yuhan only wanted to share what he saw with Shan Qihuan, now that he thought about it, must have been common for Shan Qihuan, so he misunderstood that he wanted to raise it.
“Can I keep it? It’s so big, will it bite?”
“Golden retrievers are quite docile, but we don’t keep pets at home, still have to walk the dog in the morning and evening, you have to go to class and don’t have time, moreover, they are used as guide dogs for blind people, which you are not.”
“Okay.” It turns out that big dogs still have this purpose, after seeing this, he said, “I won’t keep one.”
He wasn’t very sad that Shan Qihuan didn’t let him raise a dog, he can’t even support himself, he still has to rely on his husband.
The driver asked Shan Qihuan: “Mr. Shan, should I take you to the company first or take Mr. Shen to class first?”
Shan Qihuan glanced at the itinerary, the meeting started at ten o’clock: “I’m in no hurry, let’s send him there first.”
Being sent to class by his husband, Shen Yuhan was quite happy.
The company is actually not too far from home, it only takes half an hour including peak congestion, on a normal day, it would only take about fifteen minutes to drive, that house was bought by Shan Qihuan because of its proximity to the company, he didn’t think too much about it at the time, it was just an investment, he never thought that one day it would have another owner.
Shen Yuhan had a calligraphy class in the morning and a painting class in the afternoon, both at the same training institution.
The training institution is located in a quiet corner of an old red-brick building, there are advertising signs for various educational institutions outside, such as study abroad training, foreign language training, vocational skills training, there are also small advertisements with a night income of 100,000 interspersed in it, and so on.
There is also a fence around the outside, so the inside can’t be seen, it’s not the weekend, so there aren’t many people coming here at this hour.
Shen Yuhan got out of the car and looked at the area, which was very unfamiliar to him, it was his first time he went out, he was still a little panicked and scared after leaving the safe zone.
He asked Shan Qihuan: “Husband, can you accompany me in?”
Among the few people he knew, Shan Qihuan was the closest person to Shen Yuhan, and he had a natural trust in him.
Shan Qihuan thought to himself, why don’t you take the opportunity to run away?
“There’s an address on it, go up there yourself.”
Shen Yuhan lowered his head a little disappointed and said: “I want you to go with me.”
The next second, Shan Qihuan’s long legs stretched out, he didn’t understand why Shen Yuhan looks so nervous, but he is quite good at acting coquettishly, in broad daylight, but still not dare to enter this kind of old building, also have to be accompanied by him.
At this moment, Shan Qihuan actually felt that Shen Yuhan needed him.
Shen Yuhan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he finally agreed.
“Let’s go, I’ll send you up.” Shan Qihuan’s face was stern, he stepped into the rusty iron gate first.
Shen Yuhan quickly followed, and with Shan Qihuan in front, he felt much more at ease.
There are four old buildings in total, and the training institution is in the last one, the further you walk in, the quieter it becomes, surrounded by high-rise buildings blocking the sun.
Shen Yuhan was busy memorizing the route, and almost failed to keep up with Shan Qihuan, it was Shan Qihuan who deliberately slowed down his pace before he could catch up.
At this moment, Shan Qihuan had a sullen face, did Assistant Qu choose the training institution without looking at its address? What kind of ghost place is this, it’s so gloomy, and not many people come in.
Just when he was about to give up looking, he found it.
The service at the front desk was not bad, they served them tea and water, after learning that Shen Yuhan was a student who bought a one-year membership yesterday, her attitude was even better.
After Shan Qihuan dropped the person off, he was about to get up and leave, but just as he took a step forward, he found that Shen Yuhan was holding the corner of his clothes, so he turned around and asked him: “Is there anything else?”
“When are you coming to pick me up?” Shen Yuhan looked at Shan Qihuan expectantly.
With this look in his eyes, Shan Qihuan couldn’t refuse him at all, and it was very effective every time.
“I’ll call you when I’m done in the morning.”
“I don’t have a mobile phone.” Shen Yuhan patted his pocket, he didn’t have anything with him.
It was only then that Shan Qihuan feel that he had neglected Shen Yuhan: “Where is your mobile phone?”
“They told me that it broke after falling into the water.” Shen Yuhan’s eyes were full of innocence, even if he had a mobile phone before, he wouldn’t know how to use it, but now that he was out of the house, he could study behind Shan Qihuan’s back, and naturally he can have one, naturally mentioning it at this time was the best time, Shan Qihuan will not doubt him.
This is Shen Yuhan’s careful maneuver, Shan Qihuan didn’t notice it at all, and he couldn’t guess it at the moment.
“I’ll ask my assistant to buy you a mobile phone, do you want a new phone card or the original one?”
“I want a new one.”
“Not contacting your old friends?” Shan Qihuan actually intended to ridicule the fox friends and dog friends4狐朋狗友 (hú péng gǒu yǒu): lit. fox friends and dog friends; a pack of rogues (idiom); a gang of scoundrels; (derogatory) disreputable friends; evil associates; depraved company. he had made in the past.
“No more contact.” Those were all friends of ‘Shen Yuhan’, he doesn’t even know them, it might be easier to get a new card, maybe it would save him some trouble, he didn’t know what the purpose of the phone card was, anyway, just go along with what Shan Qihuan said.
“Okay, I’ll have the driver come and pick you up at noon, you go to my company to get your mobile phone, and we can have lunch together.”
Shen Yuhan was very satisfied with his arrangement and said with a smile: “Husband, go to work quickly.” He felt that he could not delay his work time any longer.
He warned Shen Yuhan in a less convincing tone: “Don’t run around.”
“Um, bye, Husband.” Shen Yuhan let go of Shan Qihuan’s clothes, and the sense of dependence was not as heavy as just now.
When Shan Qihuan turned around and left this training institution, he had the illusion that he had been abandoned after being used.
The lady at the front desk looked at the two reluctant partings5依依不舍 (yī yī bù shě): reluctant to part (idiom); to feel broken-hearted at having to leave; to linger; cannot bear to part. and said with a smile: “You two have such a good relationship, stick to each other like glue6如膠似漆 (rú jiāo sì qī): stuck together as by glue (of lovers); joined at the hip; to cleave together as firmly and inseparably as glue and lacquer; to love each other dearly; to be closely bound together (as lovers); stick to each other like glue or lacquer—be love-struck; be deeply attached to each other..”
Shen Yuhan smiled shyly, and had no intention of showing off to the lady at the front desk.
The receptionist lady is also knowledgeable: “You come with me, our three-person adult class will start soon.”
“Okay.” This preparation is really thoughtful.
The receptionist lady guided Shen Yuhan through a long corridor where many calligraphy and paintings were hung, the surrounding area was filled with the strong fragrance of ink, she told Shen Yuhan that these works belonged to students, and if Shen Yuhan practiced well, he also could hang them up for display.
When they arrived at a study room with sandalwood incense, there were already two people in the room, and Shen Yuhan was the last one to enter.
The receptionist lady brought him to the empty desk: “Mr. Shen, the three-person class just started today, the teacher will come over during class, if you have any questions, you can come find me at any time.”
Shen Yuhan said: “Okay.”
The receptionist lady then withdrew.
The three students have three books, which are arranged in a triangle, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone7筆墨紙硯 (bǐ mò zhǐ yàn): brush, ink, paper and inkstone; Four Treasures of the Study. are all ready.
At the head of the table is a silent young man, his head is lowered, his age could not be discerned, and he was practicing calligraphy without listening to what was going on outside the window, the one on the right is a young man about the same age as Shen Yuhan, with a crew cut, but the young man is sitting crookedly, lying prone on the Xuan paper8宣紙 (xuān zhǐ): Xuan paper, Shuen paper, or Rice paper, is a kind of paper originating in ancient China used for writing and painting. Xuan paper is renowned for being soft and fine textured, suitable for conveying the artistic expression of both Chinese calligraphy and painting..
Shen Yuhan was in the same room with two men, although he felt uncomfortable in his heart, he still endured it, after all, he was also a man now, nowadays, the world was only divided into men and women, he was no longer a ger, but a man, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
The young man rested his head on his arm, yawned and looked toward Shen Yuhan, he suddenly sat upright and was about to open his mouth when a man in his thirties wearing glasses suddenly walked in and interrupted the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
The person coming is the calligraphy teacher.
“Hello everyone, I am the teacher in charge of your calligraphy studies, my surname is Fang…”
Fang Laoshi was very approachable, the class started.
Shen Yuhan has always been a good student, he has never been to an outside school, but he also attended a girls’ school within the clan for a period of time.
In class, you have to respect the teacher, he didn’t turn his head, so he didn’t notice that the young man next to him glanced at him from time to time, not knowing what he was thinking about.
Fang Laoshi first talked about the relevant content of this course, briefly talking about what hard-tipped pen calligraphy9硬筆書法 (yìng bǐ shū fǎ): ‘hardpen’ calligraphy; pen calligraphy; hard-tipped pen calligraphical works. is and what soft-tipped pen calligraphy10軟筆書法 (ruǎn bǐ shū fǎ): soft-tipped pen calligraphy; brush pen calligraphy. is, and then started teaching how to hold the pen correctly.
After that, he told them some basics of practicing calligraphy, and so on, which Shen Yuhan was already very familiar with.
It turns out that the calligraphy he used to has become a pursuit in modern times.
However, he did not regard himself as a very powerful person, and still listened attentively to the teacher’s lectures.
In the first lesson, he listened to the teacher’s lecture on the fundamentals, and in the second lesson, he started practicing his calligraphy.
Shen Yuhan used to practice calligraphy occasionally at home, and now that he had picked up a brush, he felt a sense of familiarity, at least he wasn’t completely separated from this society, and there was still an area that he knew well.
The calligraphy class went smoothly, and Shen Yuhan was grateful to Shan Qihuan for choosing the course for him.
However, he would rather take a modern hard-tipped pen calligraphy class, he was already effortlessly skilful with the brush pen, there is no need to write deliberately.
Fang Laoshi asked them to practice calligraphy, and Shen Yuhan had already started writing.
After he wrote a character, the teacher stood next to him and praised him: “You wrote well, you must have learned it before.”
Shen Yuhan said: “I’ve learned a little bit.”
Fang Laoshi went to see the masterpieces of two other students, while Shen Yuhan continued to practice calligraphy quietly.
After he finished writing a set of words, he was not satisfied with his writing, and changed another piece of paper, Fang Laoshi takes a look at his writing and is a bit amazed by it.
Fang Laoshi: Why did he come to class when his writing was so good, did he come to humiliate him?
The morning was spent on practicing calligraphy, Shen Yuhan had a good time writing, and his heart suddenly calmed down.
When it was time for class to end, he washed his hands and prepared to leave, saying goodbye to the lady at the front desk, he would come back in the afternoon to learn and practice painting.
The driver was waiting for him outside, Shen Yuhan had already seen the car that brought him here in the morning.
As soon as he went out, Shen Yuhan was suddenly stopped by someone.
“Shen Yuhan? You are Shen Yuhan, right?”
Shen Yuhan turned around, and saw the classmate who was studying calligraphy with him just now, since he was married, in order to avoid suspicion, he did not speak to others during the entire class time.
Never expecting that someone knew him, he hesitated and said: “What’s the matter?”
The other party said: “I am Huang Shang, don’t you remember me? That’s right, it’s normal that you don’t recognize me, I used to be a little fat, but now I’ve lost weight, so it’s normal that you don’t recognize me.”
Emperor11皇上 (huáng shàng): emperor; reigning sovereign; Your Majesty; His Majesty; T/N: Shen Yuhan mistake Huang Shang 黃尚 (Huáng Shàng) name, because of the same pronunciation.?
Shen Yuhan was stunned for a moment, and said very stiffly: “Oh, I still have something else to do, so I’ll leave first.”
There’s still an emperor in modern society? He never heard of it in the news broadcast!
In any case, he didn’t want to talk to the other party anymore, so he quickly walked to his car, got in, and left as soon as possible.
Huang Shang didn’t mind his indifferent attitude, he turned around and sent a message to the WeChat12微信 (Wēi xìn): Weixin or WeChat a Chinese instant messaging, social media, and mobile payment app developed by Tencent. group.
– Brothers, I’ve met that big dumb ass Shen Yuhan!
– Fuck, where, we have to avenge Brother Zhe!
– At my dad’s calligraphy studio.
–
Ten minutes later, the driver took Shen Yuhan downstairs of Shan Qihuan’s company, Shan Qihuan happened to be going downstairs, he got into the car directly, and then he saw Shen Yuhan wilting and slumping his shoulders.
Very good, what he needed was the mental shock the training course gave him, the effect was obvious, he is very satisfied, can consider renewing the membership for another year.
Shen Yuhan was in a bad mood at first glance, when he saw him, he softly called out: “Husband.”
Shan Qihuan, who was very satisfied a second ago, immediately softened his tone and asked him: “What, the teacher scolded you?”
Shen Yuhan shook his head: “No.” Then he whispered, “I met the Emperor.”
Shan Qihuan: “…”
A mere half a day’s lesson can make a person stupid? He’s the overlord13太上皇 (Tài shàng huáng): Taishang Huang; Retired Emperor; father of the reigning emperor; fig. puppet master; title assumed by the reigning emperor’s father who abdicated in favour of his son; overlord; backstage ruler; supersovereign..
Btw, there’s actually no divider between scene change, I add it myself to avoid confusion. Also, each time SY called SQH ‘husband’ 老公 (lǎo gōng), it can also be translated as: Honey, Hubby, Darling, etc. In short, it’s an intimate call or term of endearment, just like Anata (あなた) in Japanese.
