Chapter 312 I Only Treat You as My Sister (30)
Lian Shangrui felt uncomfortable for a long time the next day because Lin Shichu saw him naked. Fortunately, he had a facial expressionless face, so even if he was shy, it was hard to see.
However, this made him realize that Lin Shichu seemed to like his figure, so he "forgot" to button his shirt from time to time, revealing his slender, sexy neck and delicate collarbone. Of course, he also wanted to show off his abdominal muscles, but due to limited conditions, he couldn't do so freely, otherwise it would seem too deliberate.
Although Lin Shichu was eager to make a move on him, she was not in a hurry. She was still in college, so there was no problem with dating, but they were not in the same school, which was equivalent to a "long-distance relationship", which was no different from not being in a relationship at all, so she was very calm.
"Do you want to go to the art exhibition?" Lian Shangrui took out two tickets and asked Lin Shichu.
Lin Shichu took it and saw that it was from a famous painter, so he replied, "Okay."
The art exhibition was not far from Lin Shichu's home, so they arrived there quickly. Maybe because it was the weekend, there were quite a few people visiting the exhibition. As soon as Shangrui and Lin Shichu entered, they were seen by a young man.
"Junior brother! You are finally here? I thought you would not come this time. The teacher said that you were too low-key and never showed up. Have you finally figured it out now?" The young man walked up very happily and spoke to Lian Shangrui.
Lin Shichu was a little curious. Could this person be Lian Shangrui's senior in school? He didn't expect that Lian Shangrui, a quiet guy, could make friends in college.
"Teacher is here too?" Lian Shangrui asked his senior brother.
"Yes, it's the teacher's own art exhibition. Of course you have to come. It's in the northwest corner of the second floor. Just go find him." The senior brother said, and then saw the bright and charming Lin Shichu standing next to Lian Shangrui. His eyes suddenly lit up and asked, "Junior brother, who is this lady?"
Lian Shangrui saw his sparkling eyes and couldn't help but frowned. He used his body to block Lin Shichu and said, "It's my good friend, Lin Shichu. Shichu, this is my senior brother, Zhou Zhi."
Lin Shichu smiled at Zhou Zhi: "Hello, Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Zhi was immediately mesmerized by her smile and stretched out his hand to shake her hand. He said, "Shichu? Can I call you that? Your name is really nice. Does it mean the beginning of time? Since you are a friend of Junior Brother Lian, you are also my friend. Just call me Zhou Zhi. Calling me Mr. Zhou is too unfamiliar."
Lian Shangrui's face became even colder when he saw how attentive he was. He quickly held Zhou Zhi's hand and didn't let him have any contact with Lin Shichu.
"Okay, Zhou Zhi, Brother Zhou." Lin Shichu smiled and called out obediently.
"That's right. I didn't expect that my junior brother, who is so quiet and useless, actually has a friend like you. It really surprises me. The teacher was a little worried that he was too withdrawn..." Zhou Zhi was a very talkative person and a bit self-confident. He soon started chatting with Lin Shichu.
Lin Shichu was a little surprised when he heard the meaning behind his words: "From what you said before, the person who organized this exhibition is you and Lian Shangrui's teacher?"
"Yes, didn't Junior Brother Lian tell you? He was spotted by my teacher, Master Wen Ling, and was accepted as my apprentice just after the school started. The teacher always praised him for his high talent and spirituality, and called him a genius... By the way, several of Junior Brother Lian's paintings are also on display in this exhibition. The teacher likes his works very much. You can go and appreciate them." Zhou Zhi talked endlessly about Lian Shangrui.
Lin Shichu was really shocked this time. Master Wen Ling is one of the leading painters in the country. One of his paintings can be sold at a high price of several million or even tens of millions. His works are at the textbook level. He didn't expect that such a master is actually Lian Shangrui's teacher.
"You never told me any of these things..." Lin Shichu looked at Lian Shangrui and said.
Lian Shangrui looked down at her, his face expressionless, as if he had not chosen a famous teacher that everyone flocked to, but had just found a teacher from a random art training institution on the street. He did not look honored at all.
"There's nothing much to say." He said very calmly. He really felt so and never thought it was a big deal to have a famous teacher.
"Oh my God, Junior Brother Lian, is this considered Versailles? How many people are vying to become our teacher's disciples, but you don't know how lucky you are and even say there's nothing to say. If those who want to become our teacher's disciples heard this, they would be so jealous that they would eat you alive." Zhou Zhi said exaggeratedly.
Lin Shichu couldn't help laughing. Zhou Zhi had other things to do, so he couldn't accompany Lian Shangrui to find the teacher. So Lian Shangrui took Lin Shichu to see paintings by himself, and didn't say anything about going to find his teacher.
Even a layman like Lin Shichu knows the name of Master Wen Ling, so you can imagine how high his status in the painting world is. Such a big shot rarely holds art exhibitions, but he suddenly opened one this time, which attracted many people, not to mention those who are pretentious, even many celebrities came. No wonder Zhou Zhi, as Master Wen Ling's eldest disciple, had to go to the door to greet the guests.
But the young disciple Lian Shangrui did not need to do so. Perhaps Master Wen Ling knew that with his personality, it would be impossible for him to be as good at networking as Zhou Zhi, so he simply did not require him to contribute and only asked him to be present.
There were many people in the exhibition. Lian Shangrui grabbed Lin Shichu's hand at some point. He was half a head taller than Lin Shichu and held her tightly. Although his eyes were appreciating the paintings, his palms were burning. Lin Shichu felt that his hand was getting hotter and hotter, and she couldn't help shaking it.
"What's wrong?" Lian Shangrui asked her with his head down.
"Why don't you let go of my hand? Don't worry, I won't get lost." Lin Shichu said.
Lian Shangrui did not let go, pretending not to hear her words. He turned his head and stared at the painting on the wall again, as if the painting was very attractive to him.
Lin Shichu didn't expect that he could use this trick to cheat. His eyes widened in shock. This guy has become promising!
As they watched, the two of them came to a more secluded corner where there were fewer people. Lin Shichu managed to break free from Lian Shangrui's hand.
Lian Shangrui was about to look at Lin Shichu with dissatisfaction when suddenly a mischievous laugh came from behind him.
Lin Shichu looked back and saw an old man with a head full of white hair, probably in his sixties but in good spirits. The old man was looking at them with a smile and even took a close look at Lin Shichu.
"Teacher." Lian Shangrui suddenly shouted.
Lin Shichu’s eyes widened immediately. This person was Lian Shangrui’s teacher, the famous painter Wen Ling?
