In the evening, Lu Qi finally hung colorful lanterns all over the courtyard and turned on the colorful lanterns and ground lamps. As dusk fell, the light from the lanterns in the courtyard gradually shone through the silk satin, which was indescribably beautiful.
Li Changsi looked at the rabbit and butterfly lanterns that filled the courtyard. Under each lantern was a riddle, just like the temple fairs he visited when he was young. Suddenly, his eyes became moist.
He tried his best to give her the best memories, but she had actually stopped reminiscing about the past.
Seeing Lu Qi and Li Changsi guessing riddles under the lanterns, Wei Zhenxi wanted to join in, but was dragged back by Song Mao.
"I am a guest, why are you pulling me here?"
Song Mao's expression was expressionless: "Young Master Wei, I'm afraid the master will settle the score later."
The husband spent the entire afternoon making lanterns and writing riddles by hand, but before he could spend ten minutes with his wife, a bunch of light bulbs appeared. It would be strange if he didn't settle the score later!
Wei Zhenxi: “…”
Okay, if you are not single, who would want to come here and be an eyesore?
Seeing Lu Qi and Li Changsi standing under the lanterns, talking in low voices, occasionally smiling at each other, only able to see each other, Wei Zhenxi took a mouthful of her Liuliumei.
Lu Qi has always been cold to others, and so has Li Changsi. However, when these two cold people get together, they become very affectionate and affectionate, which makes single people envious.
He really likes coming to the mountaintop manor. Li Changsi and Lu Qi are both very thoughtful and insightful people. Talking with such people is a pleasure both physically and mentally. He originally thought that Lu Qi would end up alone, but he didn't expect that he would find his destined person so quickly. It's really enviable.
However, there probably won't be another Li Changsi in the world.
After getting the marriage certificate, Li Changsi's life did not change at all. It was just that the school season started in September and her stay-at-home life ended.
Fortunately, the school is in the same city and she does not live on campus. The university courses are not difficult for her. Basically, she goes to class when she has classes and goes home when she doesn’t have classes.
After adapting for half a month, Li Changsi was able to handle it with ease. On weekends, she stayed at home and lazily basked in the sun. Recently, she had become obsessed with oil painting, especially on the Chinese Valentine's Day when she saw that Lu Qi's painting skills were better than hers, so she thought about learning oil painting.
Oil painting and Chinese painting are two different styles, and she wanted to compare them.
Li Changsi had just taken out the paint when Qiubi called. Qiubi had recently given her a high-end jewelry endorsement, and the call was basically about this.
"Changsi, the jewelry endorsement deal has been basically finalized. We'll be shooting the commercial at the beginning of the month, and there will be an endorsement event at the end of the month. Basically, there won't be any problems."
"By the way, ever since you officially announced your marriage, all your haters have gone away. Plus, with your top score in the liberal arts on the college entrance exam, your reputation is off the charts now." Qiubi was incredibly excited on the phone. She'd initially thought her fanbase would drop after the announcement, but it turned out to be a positive one, with her popularity continuing to rise.
Isn't Chang Si's biggest flaw the fact that she pursued the movie star Bai Zhuo? Now she's married to a low-key, wealthy, tenth-generation rich man, so what's the point of the movie star?
This wave, this wave is the king bomb.
"Okay, I understand." Li Changsi nodded.
"Changsi, then you just concentrate on your classes. I'll give you a good script when there's one." Qiubi thought that there weren't any good scripts right now, and they were newlyweds, so he wouldn't give Changsi a job, lest he get beaten up by President Lu.
"Yeah. My focus this year is on the wedding and studies, so I'll put the acting job on hold."
Li Changsi hung up the phone, took out the paint and the drawing board and rice paper, and first simply outlined the picture he wanted to draw. There were green mountains in the distance, a small wooden house and a pear tree nearby, and two people, one big and one small, under the pear tree. Now the scenery, characters and buildings were all complete.
She has a foundation in Chinese painting and has watched several videos on oil painting. It is not difficult to paint, but it takes some time and skills to paint well.
Sit for hours.
When Lu Qi entered the study room with a fruit plate and fruit tea, he saw Li Changsi sitting in front of a drawing board painting an oil painting. There were colorful paints mixed in the paint tray on the side. The first touch-up of the pattern on the drawing board had been completed. Although the color was quite light, the contrast between the green mountains, the snow-white pear tree, and the person under the tree made the color still clear and strong.
Seeing what she drew, the man's eyes suddenly darkened.
"Changsi, take a rest first." Lu Qi handed her the fruit tea and put the paint tray aside.
Li Changsi checked the time and realized she had been painting for three hours. No wonder her shoulders felt a little sore. She put down her brush, looked at the paint on her hands, and said with a smile, "Let's drink later. My hands are dirty."
Seeing her bright eyes and white teeth, Lu Qi leaned over and said in a low voice, "Do you want me to get you some wet wipes?"
Seeing him leaning in for a kiss, Li Changsi blinked, kissed him, and said with a smile, "Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Lu."
She had originally wanted to go to the bathroom next door to wash her hands, as the paint was difficult to remove. Ever since they got the marriage certificate, Lu Qi had been trying every possible way to get her to kiss him, and this man never said it out loud, only guiding her to do it.
Lu Qi's eyes darkened. He held the fruit tea in one hand and supported the back of her head with the other. He took the initiative and kissed her deeply and impatiently.
Li Changsi's cheeks were slightly hot, but her hands were covered in paint, and she was afraid of dirtying his clothes, so she could only let him kiss her.
The man quickly let go of her, then went to get some hand sanitizer and wet wipes. He washed the paint off her hands bit by bit, wiped them dry, and then said casually, "Does the place you painted look familiar?"
Uh. Li Changsi paused for a moment while drinking his fruit tea. In reality, they had never mentioned anything about their past lives. They had only mentioned each other's identities the night they confessed their identities to each other, and after that, neither of them mentioned it again.
Even though he is the reincarnation of Lan Jingxing, Lu Qi thinks he is just Lu Qi, so Li Changsi never mentions Lan Jingxing in front of him.
Her eyelashes trembled like butterfly wings. She glanced at her painting and realized that she was careless. She just wanted to paint a picture. The deepest memory in her mind was naturally Guyun Mountain.
"It's just a painting in a dream, nothing important." She wanted to put away the drawing board, but the man held her fingertips.
Lu Qi's expression was mixed with emotion. "It's a good painting, why put it away? This scenery is more beautiful than the manor on the top of the mountain, especially the century-old pear tree. When in full bloom, the blossoms look like snow, very romantic and beautiful. He's a very nice person too, and his painting captures the charm of a peaceful and tranquil time."
Li Changsi saw his thin lips pursed, clearly unhappy, as if jealous. She wanted to laugh but was afraid of angering him, so she quickly said with a smile, "It's just a casual drawing. I'll draw one for you, too. It's the scene when I first met you. At that time, you were sitting under the osmanthus tree, reading a book with your head down, and Little Marshmallow playfully scratched the tree, and golden osmanthus flowers fell all over your shoulders.
The sunlight falls through the sparse leaves, giving your profile a light sheen.
At that time, I was wondering where this man came from, who is so gentle and beautiful like jade, and I want to flirt with him. "
Lu Qi was already feeling very depressed. When he heard her say that, his thin lips raised slightly and he said in a deep voice, "So you just wanted to flirt with me when you first met me? I fell in love with you at first sight."
He noticed her difference at first sight and was captivated by her grace.
Love at first sight? Li Changsi pulled his arm, asked him to lean over, then kissed him and said with a smile, "I like love that grows over time; that's what makes it so touching."
Even if it was love at first sight, she would still like Lan Jingxing's face. But she would not fall into that trap. In fact, in her heart, he was Lan Jingxing and Lu Qi, the same person, just like a person's youth and adulthood.
He is Lan Jingxing, who is ignorant of the five senses, does not understand love, and dies for love. He is also Lu Qi, who is mature, introverted, cold and restrained, and lives in seclusion.
She was very glad that she met the mature and reserved him many years later.
Lu Qi's eyes deepened slightly. He grabbed her slender waist and said dangerously, "It's broad daylight, and you're teasing me like this. Isn't that inappropriate?"
After the man finished speaking, he trapped the person in his arms and kissed her deeply.
What happened next was out of control, resulting in a very late dinner. Li Changsi thought the matter was over, but at night the man began to settle the score. He asked her to draw the scene of their first meeting, hugged her from behind and kissed her, and asked her in a dangerous voice which painting she liked better.
Li Changsi was so kissed by him that she almost couldn't hold the paintbrush. Was this a question of which painting she liked more? This was clearly asking her whether she liked him more in her previous life or in her current life.
This is undoubtedly a fatal question.
No matter how you answer, it's wrong.
"I like both paintings. One is like the pear blossom pastry in my memory, and the other is like the osmanthus cake I eat every day." She weighed the pros and cons and gave an ambiguous answer. It was absurd that this person was jealous of her.
Just don't expose it, otherwise you won't be able to sleep tonight.
She still has classes tomorrow, and she doesn't want to lose the teacher's good impression by missing class.
"It seems that the pear blossom pastry is delicious. I have been thinking about it for so many years."
His movements became more violent, and Li Changsi trembled all over, and the paintbrush in his hand almost fell down.
"Osmanthus cake, osmanthus cake is delicious." Her voice was soft and delicate, as if she was acting coquettishly. "My hands are sore, I won't paint anymore."
The man held her hand from behind and said in a low and sexy voice, "I will teach you how to draw."
Finally, the two of them finished the osmanthus painting together. He painted the osmanthus flowers, and she painted the person under the osmanthus tree. The golden osmanthus flowers were like rain, and the handsome man under the tree looked at her with gentle eyes and deep affection.
After the painting was finished, the paint and brushes were scattered all over the floor, but no one bothered to clean them up. That night, the sweet-scented osmanthus flowers in the courtyard fell softly, and the rich fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus lingered around the bedside.
Li Changsi felt like her waist was about to break, and from then on she put her drawing board and paints into the cold palace and locked them in a cabinet, never to see the light of day.
However, the oil painting she and Lu Qi had finished together was later retouched many times by the man and framed and hung in the study. Every time she saw the painting, her cheeks would burn and she dared not look directly at it.
Much later, she was looking for a foreign document, climbed up the ladder, found the book in the highest bookcase, and unexpectedly discovered the painting of pear blossoms on Gushan Mountain that had been put away.
The unfinished painting has been repainted and polished, with only a line of words written on the back: Years of longing, lifelong love for the little princess.
Her eyes instantly became moist. It turned out that he remembered their past and present lives.
