His brows were furrowed, and the brush in his hand was suspended in mid-air, but he didn't put pen to paper.
Spread out on the table was a piece of rice paper with Fang Qingyue's outline already sketched on it.
He repeatedly described her appearance, her eyes and brows were gentle, yet revealed a hint of unexpressed sadness.
Outside the window, the autumn wind was cool and the leaves were rustling, making the study even quieter.
Shen Yuhan put down his pen, rubbed his eyebrows, and his eyes fell on the portrait. A bitter feeling rose in his heart.
