rebirth against the times

After Chen Bing left the restaurant, he looked at the time. It seemed that it was still a little early before the agreed time to visit his mentor's house. If it hadn't been for that Chris' interruption, the time would have been just right if he had sat in the restaurant for more than half an hour.

Seeing that it was too early, Chen Bing chose to walk there. Fortunately, there is a strong artistic atmosphere everywhere. It seems that every street, every building, and every river makes people feel relaxed, refreshed and leisurely.

After walking around for half an hour, Chen Bing found a small but very unique gift shop on the roadside.

Chen Bing suddenly thought: Oh, although I just made an appointment with my instructor to pick up a piece of music score from her home, it is still my first time to visit her home. Should I buy some small gifts? Fortunately, it is still early, Chen Bing

I planned to go in and take a look around to see if I could find any gadgets that the instructor liked.

With a crisp sound of wind chimes, Chen Bing pushed the door open and entered the store. He saw that the owner of the gift shop was an old man with a fat figure and wearing glasses. When he saw a customer entering the store, he raised his head and said hello with a polite smile.

, then he lowered his head and continued to do the work in his hands, allowing the guests to visit freely.

Chen Bing walked around casually and found that most of the things displayed in the store were purely handmade and unique objects, not mass-produced by factories. This was exactly what Chen Bing wanted.

A gift. As he was walking, an abstract art portrait caught Chen Bing's attention.

The painting skills of this painting are very good. The color combination and the seemingly chaotic composition perfectly interpret the contradictory inner world of the characters that the author wants to express. It can be said to be a truly excellent work.

The artist of the painting is named Jimmy. Although he has never heard of it, even though he is an unknown painter, Chen Bing will not change his opinion because of those false names.

Thinking that his music tutor had a unique preference for paintings, Chen Bing thought of buying this work as a small gift for his tutor. When checking out, Chen Bing was a little surprised by the price of this painting, although it was not as good as

Those famous masterpieces are so expensive, but they are definitely not comparable to ordinary works of art. But since I like them, this little money is nothing to Chen Bing.

After wrapping the painting carefully, Chen Bing continued to drive for about five minutes. He only heard a short brake sound, and a brand new Bentley suddenly stopped in front of Chen Bing. The window fell, and the blond and blue-eyed Chris turned out to be

Appeared in front of Chen Bing again.

"Hi, beautiful lady, it seems we are really destined!"

Chen Bing smiled lightly: "If we are destined to meet each other once or twice, then the shoemaker and I are even more destined."

Chris didn't seem to mind. He still had a springy smile on his face. He pointed at the things in Chen Bing's hand and said, "With so many things, if you don't mind, I'll give you a ride."

Chen Bing shook his head and declined: "Thank you for your kindness! It's not heavy, and we're not on our way, so I won't bother you."

But Chris still wanted to fight for it and said with a smile: "Oh? Where are you going? Maybe you'll be on your way?"

Chen Bing smiled, looked up at the sky as if unintentionally, and then looked at Chris: "I think we are not on the same road, so you should go your way, and I will go mine." After that, he turned sideways.

Keep walking forward.

Behind him, Chris asked loudly: "Do you have any other meaning?"

Chen Bing did not stop and continued walking forward. Without looking back, he raised one hand and waved away: "It doesn't matter how you interpret it!".

In the blink of an eye, it was three o'clock in the afternoon, and Chen Bing arrived at the tutor's home on time. The tutor was a female elder with profound musical attainments, both political integrity and talent, and a high reputation in the industry, named Puli. After meeting with Chen Bing

After a friendly face-to-face hug, the instructor said that she was receiving a temporary guest. After Chen Bing learned about it, he immediately said that if the instructor had something to do today, he would come to visit another day.

The instructor shook his head and said he didn't mind. Instead, he enthusiastically took Chen Bing's hand to another guest room and insisted on introducing the visitor to her.

Chen Bing was about to ask the visitor who he was when he saw a man walking out of the house. The moment he saw Chen Bing, the man said with excitement and surprise: "Hahaha, I didn't expect you to be Mr. Lip's guest."

,We meet again!"

Chen Bing rolled his eyes in his heart and was speechless: It's really a ghost, how come you can meet this man named Chris everywhere. He could only smile helplessly.

"Do you know each other?" Instructor Lip asked the two of them doubtfully when he saw this.

"do not know."

"know."

Chen Bing and Chris spoke out together, but gave completely opposite answers.

"We just met today."

"We've already met three times."

The two of them explained in unison.

Lip didn't speak. He looked sideways at the ground, his mouth made an O shape, as if he understood, and he raised his hand in an OK gesture.

"Okay, whether you recognize him or not, let me introduce him again. This is my student Chen Bing." After introducing Chen Bing, the instructor pointed to the man and said: "This is Chris, who worked with me earlier.

I have studied for a while and can be regarded as my student."

Chris immediately extended his right hand to Chen Bing: "So your name is Chen Bing. It's an honor to meet you!" Chen Bing also smiled politely, stretched out his right hand, and gently shook Chris' fingertips:

"Hi Chris, me too."

Seeing that Chen Bing was still a little restrained, Chris joked again: "So, we can be considered brothers and sisters in the same school. Let me just say that our fate goes beyond this."

Chen Bing rolled his eyes countless times in his heart. Before he could answer, Tutor Lip continued to introduce: "Chris, your junior sister is not simple. She is a well-known artist in China. If you know more about this aspect,

If you were paying attention, you should have recognized her by now."

Chris's eyes lit up and he suddenly realized: "No wonder you look so familiar to me. It turns out you are a big star in China!"

Chen Bing smiled modestly: "My past achievements are not worth mentioning. Now I am just a student seeking advice and learning."

After saying that, Chen Bing took out the thing in his hand again, indicating that it was a little thought for Tutor Lip. Lipu didn't expect that Chen Bing was just a casual visit, and actually brought a gift, but if he refused

It seems even more rude.

When the package was opened, Lip showed an expression of disbelief when he saw the painting. He shook his head and looked back at Chris.

"I never imagined that you two would have such a tacit understanding."
