Chapter 179 Old Paintings



Even as she said it, she herself felt very doubtful.

No, I must have seen wrong. Why would he be shy? Or maybe she's still dreaming.

Qi Sheng was initially somewhat normal, but after she pointed it out, his face instantly turned bright red.

He could no longer contain himself. "Are you coming in or not?!"

He then planned to close the door in front of her.

Gu Luoqi quickly braced herself against the door with her hand. "Did I say I wouldn't come in?"

This is a great opportunity; if she misses this chance, she doesn't know if he'll give her another one.

She was initially quite normal, but Qi Sheng's reaction left her feeling somewhat bewildered, and even caused her face to turn slightly red.

I couldn't help but mentally criticize my own foul mouth.

If someone is shy, let them be shy. Why point it out?

Help! What is she doing?

In short, an atmosphere of awkwardness permeated the air at that moment.

She entered Qi Sheng's room in a daze, and at that moment she had a clearer understanding of how tidy his room was.

After a while, the atmosphere between the two was no longer so awkward, and Gu Luoqi finally remembered the important matter.

"Hurry up and eat your noodles, they're getting soggy." She looked at him expectantly.

"It's already clumped together," Qi Sheng calmly told her.

"Uh... if you hadn't delayed it for so long, would it be like this?" she said helplessly.

Qi Sheng didn't mind the state of the noodles and prepared to eat them.

"Don't break the longevity noodles, it's bad luck," she kindly reminded them.

But as soon as he finished speaking, the broken noodle slid off Qi Sheng's chopsticks.

Gu Luoqi: "..."

I've never been so speechless in my life.

She quickly added, "But we can't believe in those feudal dregs; that stuff is extremely harmful!"

She is a materialist.

"Materialism during the day, idealism at night?" Even the system couldn't bear to expose her.

However, Gu Luoqi couldn't refute it. "That's not wrong, actually."

Qi Sheng didn't say anything, but obediently ate his noodles. He always ate very gracefully.

However, it wasn't appropriate to stare at him like that, so while he was eating, Gu Luoqi casually glanced around, and at that moment something caught her attention.

There was an easel next to the window, although it was now covered by a white canvas, but a small corner could still be vaguely seen.

The key was that the more she looked at it, the more familiar it seemed, and after thinking for a long time, she finally remembered it.

"So that's why the painting was missing. It turns out you took it back."

"I'll go take a look." He said, getting up to examine the painting more closely.

Her words made both the system and Qi Sheng tense.

The system hadn't forgotten how she fainted last time, so it was afraid that the painting would evoke her sad memories.

Qi Sheng simply didn't want her to see the painting.

The unanimous response from those who advocated for unification was, "No way!"

Gu Luoqi was very puzzled and couldn't help but ask the system, "It's fine if Qi Sheng doesn't agree, but why don't you agree?"

"I just feel... that's Qi Sheng's privacy." The system's words sounded guilty.

The key issue is that it can't find any other reason right now.

But Gu Luoqi now actually thinks there's some truth to what it said.

So she looked at Qi Sheng with expectant eyes and said, "Please, let me see."

"Besides, there's no reason to take back something you've given away."

“You paid me back yourself before.” Qi Sheng frowned.

His demeanor made Gu Luoqi somewhat doubt the truthfulness of his words. "When? How come I didn't know?"

"When you fainted last time," Qi Sheng said, feigning seriousness.

"But I don't remember this happening." Gu Luoqi suspected that he was making up a story to fool her.

“You don’t need to remember,” he said, raising an eyebrow.

But Gu Luoqi was not the type to give up easily.

She took advantage of his momentary lapse in attention and simply lifted the canvas.

The painting she was very familiar with was displayed on the easel, but it had been modified quite a bit from the original.

A ray of warm sunshine appeared in the previously dark sky, as if it would break through the clouds at any moment and shower the earth with its warm light.

The entire painting departs from the previous gloom and carries a sense of new life.

What attracted her attention most was the silhouette of a person in the lower right corner of the painting.

It's not hard to tell that this is the back view of a young girl.
