Chapter 221 Don’t Pay Attention to That Guy
Lu Heng nodded in understanding, and looked at Nie Yao with even more admiration in his eyes: "You are amazing, worthy of being a top student who often goes to the field for archaeological research..."
Nie Yao smiled noncommittally and said, "Experience comes from practice. If you're like me, you'll also gain a lot of experience!"
"That makes sense, but let's forget about this experience..." Lu Heng touched the tip of his nose. Seeing Nie Yao packing up her drawing board and leaving, he couldn't help but ask, "Miss Nie, I wonder if I'll have the chance to get one of your paintings in the future?"
"?" Nie Yao looked at him questioningly.
"What I mean is, I wonder if I'd be honored to have you draw a picture for me..." Lu Heng said this, afraid that Nie Yao would explain, and quickly added seriously: "I can pay!"
Before Nie Yao could answer, a familiar and steady voice came from far away.
“Her paintings don’t sell!”
Nie Yao and Lu Heng looked in the direction of the sound and saw Li Jinxing, dressed in a gray-blue suit, walking slowly towards them through the grass.
"Master Li... Jiu?" Lu Heng thought he had seen it wrong and even rubbed his eyes. Only then was he sure that he was not mistaken. The person who came was not another man, but the mysterious boss Li Jinxing who lived in seclusion!
Li Jinxing did not answer Lu Heng, but said again in a deep voice: "If you want a painting, find someone else. She won't paint for you!"
Seeing that he was so determined, Nie Yao didn't say much. Lu Heng could only nod helplessly, with regret written all over his face.
"Do you have anything else to say?" Li Jinxing asked in a light tone when he saw Lu Heng still standing here and refusing to leave.
"That's all..." Lu Heng was ordered to leave, and it was not appropriate for him to stay any longer. He could only say goodbye to Nie Yao and Li Jinxing with a smile before turning around and leaving.
He just deliberately slowed down his pace and listened to the conversation between Li Jinxing and Nie Yao.
"How come you came back so early and knew I was here?"
"I came back after finishing my work. The housekeeper said you were going to the back mountain to paint, so I came straight here..."
Lu Heng couldn't help but turn his head to look at the two of them. He saw that Master Li Jiu, who never approached women, even reached out and touched Nie Yao's hair, removing a piece of green grass from her hair. Nie Yao just smiled at him. The interaction between the two was intimate and natural.
What kind of relationship do these two people have that they can have such a daily yet intimate conversation?
Lu Heng withdrew his gaze, sighed silently in his heart, and then quickened his pace to leave.
After sending Lu Heng away, Li Jinxing rolled up his sleeves and helped Nie Yao pack her things, reminding her in a low voice, "Don't bother with that guy anymore..."
"So, you know each other?" Nie Yao looked at Li Jinxing in surprise.
Li Jinxing responded softly as a reply.
"He said he came to the mountains for a run, and when he saw me drawing, he was curious and couldn't help but stare at me for a while..." Nie Yao explained with a smile, then added, "Oh, and he also said he saw my trending news online and said he's a fan!"
Li Jinxing frowned slightly and said unhappily, "That's nonsense!"
Seeing his unhappy expression, Nie Yao rarely felt like joking. She raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are you saying he's lying, or that it's impossible for him to become my fan?"
"If it were someone else, it wouldn't be strange to say this, but this Lu Heng cannot be trusted!" Li Jinxing shook his head and said in a deep voice.
