Chapter 20: Dreaming about seeing him laugh
"Teacher, I have no intention of falling in love now. I just want to work hard and get back what I lost."
Ruan Liuzheng sighed helplessly and analyzed his thoughts completely, hoping to dissuade Wen Yuexian from thinking so.
Wen Yuexian shook her head in disapproval, and reached out her hand, gently patting the back of Ruan Liuzheng's hand with her dry, warm palm, and said in a gentle voice, "Liuzheng, a failed relationship doesn't prove anything. Not everyone is Fu Yanci, and you can't stop believing in love just because of a scumbag!"
Speaking of Fu Yanci, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed across Wen Yuexian's face. As a professor at Q University, she naturally knew about Fu Yanci.
He was a well-known talented scholar in the business school next door, and many of her friends praised him highly.
But for some reason, Wen Yuexian didn't like him from the first time she saw him. He was too utilitarian and such a person was destined to be heartless.
Moreover, although he was extremely patient with Liu Zheng and took care of her in every way, as if he loved her terribly, Wen Yuexian did not see any love for Liu Zheng in his eyes.
The most important thing in a relationship is missing, so she would do everything she could to prevent Liu Zheng from marrying him.
But in the end…
Wen Yuexian looked at Ruan Liuzheng in front of her, sighed, and then said, "If you meet someone who is worth it, you should still have the courage to give it a try. Liuzheng, don't let yourself get stuck in the past."
Ruan Liuzheng was stunned for a moment, lowered his eyes slightly, and kept his head down without saying a word.
Wen Yuexian shook her head and said nothing more.
The words have been said. Whether he listened to them or not, and how much he listened to, probably only Liu Zheng himself knows.
I just hope she can listen to it all and think it through soon.
…
In the old house of the Fu family, after Fu Yanci finished talking with the old man, he lazily lay down on the sofa, his dark eyes occasionally glancing at Fu Jingcheng and the old man by the window.
There was a glimmer of satisfaction in his eyes.
Fu Jingcheng is still useful after all!
"Third brother, why hasn't Third Sister-in-law come yet? I heard that you arranged for Uncle Bai's daughter to work in the company a few days ago. Is Third Sister-in-law not here because of this?"
Just as Fu Yanci was about to lower his head and continue looking at his phone, the sofa beside him collapsed slightly, and a shadow fell in front of him, followed by a smiling voice sounding in his ears.
Fu Yanci turned his head, and a sharp look flashed across his deep eyes.
It’s Fu Yanshu!
The eldest son of Fu Yanci's second uncle, he was once Fu Yanci's strongest opponent, but now he is defeated.
Ever since Fu Yanci became the president of Fu Corporation and took control of the power, he began to ruthlessly suppress the people from the second branch.
If the old man hadn't taken action, I'm afraid people from the second house would no longer appear in the company.
Fu Yanshu naturally held a grudge against him for this action.
At this time, he was sitting next to Fu Yanci. Although he had a smile on his face, there was not much concern in his tone.
They were both in the Fu Group, so how could he not have heard about Ruan Liuzheng's resignation?
If it is said that he was speaking up for Ruan Liuzheng, that is not actually the case.
He hated Fu Yanci and also disliked Ruan Liuzheng.
He asked this question just to embarrass Fu Yanci.
Just to seduce the old man.
After all, if it weren't for Ruan Liuzheng, he wouldn't have lost so badly.
Fu Yanci sneered, "You seem to be very concerned about my household affairs, but I may disappoint you. Ruan Liuzheng will be here soon."
"Really? I thought there would be one less person at today's family gathering and grandpa would be disappointed."
Fu Yanshu smiled slightly, and the whole person seemed even gentler.
He is a gentle person. No matter when or where, the smile on his face will never disappear, and he treats people gently and patiently.
With this gentle and considerate way of doing things, he was able to win over many senior executives of the Fu Group.
Even Fu Yanci had suffered a lot at his hands.
Fu Yanci raised his eyelids with disdain, and said in a disdainful tone, "Don't worry, if there is really one day when there is one person missing from the family gathering, it will definitely be someone from your second house."
“That’s really something I’m looking forward to.”
Fu Yanshu shrugged, and the smile on his face deepened.
But soon, he was called by Mr. Fu to play chess.
Fu Yanci was the only one left on the huge sofa.
He looked at Fu Yanshu's back, his eyes turned cold, then he lowered his head and stared deeply at the phone in his hand. After a long time, he slowly curled his lips.
You want to laugh at him? Dream on!
…
After talking about Xie Qingcen, Wen Yuexian took Ruan Liuzheng to the study.
After not seeing each other for five years, the teacher and student had a lot to talk about.
What's more, Ruan Liuzheng is now going to re-enter the art circle, so Wen Yuexian will definitely give him more advice and test Ruan Liuzheng's current abilities.
"Come and take a look. This is the gift Mr. Xie just brought. It is the work of a rising star in the circle."
Wen Yuexian took out a painting and asked Ruan Liuzheng to appreciate it.
Ruan Liuzheng glanced at Wen Yuexian, pursed her lips and smiled slightly, and instantly understood what she meant.
"Teacher, this painting has a good meaning and the colors are rich, but the brushstrokes are still a little immature, but very spiritual. Through the painting, people can see the mood of the author when he created it, which temporarily makes up for the shortcomings of the brushstrokes. Teacher, he has a good eye to choose this painting for you!"
Ruan Liuzheng looked at Wen Yuexian and affirmed Xie Qingcen's vision.
Wen Yuexian nodded with a smile and asked, "Compared with the artist of this painting, do you think your current ability is..."
"Teacher, if the score is 10, it is undeniable that the artist of this painting can get 9 points, but I am better than her!"
Ruan Liuzheng interrupted, his eyes revealing immense confidence.
After saying that, she walked to the easel beside her, adjusted the base color, and laid the foundation, then began to paint without any hesitation.
The outline of the lines seems to be imprinted in my mind.
In a moment, a painting of the golden sunset was completed.
The interplay of colors, light and shadow perfectly expresses the gentleness of the sunset and the gradual changes of the sky.
Wen Yuexian watched quietly, a trace of relief flashed in her eyes. She smiled and said, "Although five years have passed, you are still you, Liu Zheng. You haven't changed. I am very happy."
"Welcome back! My proudest student."
Ruan Liuzheng walked up and hugged Wen Yuexian, with the corners of his lips rising unconsciously.
Wen Yuexian patted Ruan Liuzheng on the back and said, "Okay, I feel completely relieved after seeing this painting. Huilan and Mr. Xie should have prepared lunch. Let's go downstairs."
Ruan Liuzheng nodded and followed Wen Yuexian out of the study.
As the teacher and student reached the stairs, they bumped into Xie Qingcen who came up to call them.
"Professor Wen, you've arrived just in time. The food is ready. You can move to the dining room."
Xie Qingcen had taken off his coat when he went to the kitchen. He was only wearing a white shirt at this moment, and he had unbuttoned several buttons on his collar at some point.
He stood at the stairs. Even though he was one step lower than Ruan Liuzheng, he was still a head taller than Ruan Liuzheng.
He is tall and slender, elegant and handsome.
