A few nights later.
Old Li paced back and forth at the door of the room.
The assistant chimed in, "The banquet starts in an hour; perhaps we should urge Miss Feng..."
"What's the rush? What's the rush? My apprentice said she's at a crucial moment in her painting. What if you knock on the door now and disrupt her train of thought?"
"That time..."
"Let them wait. I'm not in a hurry, so why should they be?"
Old Li waved his hand impatiently.
This apprentice is really something. It's been several days already. Given her personality, that painting should have been finished long ago. Why has it taken so long this time?
But there's nothing we can do; art can't be rushed. We'll just have to wait.
Half an hour later.
The door opened.
Feng Yaoyao wiped the traces from the corner of her mouth.
He smiled and said, "Teacher, you must be getting impatient. My painting is finished, but it took a long time to dry because of the paint."
Old Li breathed a sigh of relief and went into the house: "Oh, it's nothing, it's nothing, no rush, as long as it can be completed."
His eyes lit up when his gaze fell on the painting.
"Great, great, it feels much better than a few days ago, and the emotions in it are much richer."
"It's all thanks to the teacher's guidance."
Feng Yaoyao seemed to be in a good mood, and even praised Old Li.
"Hahaha~~~ Tonight I'll show those old guys what my apprentice is like... Eh? What's this?"
His gaze fell on a drop of liquid beneath the drawing paper.
"Huh? Paint, I guess."
Feng Yaoyao quickly grabbed a tissue and wiped herself.
"What about this bath towel that's laid out on the floor?"
"Oh, I got tired of drawing while sitting in the chair, so I laid a bath towel on the floor."
Feng Yaoyao hurriedly tidied up, her gaze drifting towards the bedroom inside.
You stupid newbie.
It's all your fault.
They said I should give back, but they actually bullied me while I was drawing.
You wait until I get back tonight, I'll definitely show you what I'm capable of.
Oh, and this time I really need to make sure to drink plenty of the pineapple juice from the fridge; I heard it's pretty good.
snort!
You're dead this time.
"Yaoyao, put the painting away, let's go."
"good."
A few minutes later, as the little green tea girl walked out the door, she winked at the head peeking out from the bedroom and quietly closed the door.
Qin Bai's heart began to itch again.
never mind.
You should hurry up and change your clothes and go out for a walk.
It's estimated that Little Green Tea won't be back for a long time; apparently, the night view here is quite nice.
After all, I came here with a mission.
It would be unreasonable not to do a few live streams.
There are still several pairs of eyes watching me at home.
no way.
I really feel like there's not enough time.
When the banquet ends, I will wait for her at the entrance.
Even with Old Li by her side, Qin Bai was still somewhat uneasy.
Why.
Being too good-looking can sometimes make people uneasy, always afraid that someone is eyeing their cup of tea.
Stepping out of the hotel, Qin Bai walked slowly forward and unknowingly arrived at the overpass.
"Sir, why don't you buy your girlfriend a bouquet of flowers?"
"How much?"
"20 yuan a flower."
"Hmm, it's not expensive. Give me everything you have."
"Okay, thank you, brother."
The little girl's clear voice was full of joy.
Qin Bai stood at a distance, watching this scene with a calm expression.
A dozen minutes later, the two children huddled together.
"Brother, are you sold out over there too?"
"Yeah, we're lucky today, let's go home early."
"Great! We can finally have a hot meal today."
The little boy led her away into the distance, completely unaware of Qin Bai following behind.
Half an hour later.
The brother and sister stopped in front of a bungalow.
Qin Bai observed his surroundings. He was very familiar with this place; it was very similar to where he used to live.
However, even such a dilapidated house in this location would probably cost several hundred yuan a month.
"Sister, we're back."
"Go wash your hands first, it's so early today. Dinner will be ready soon."
"Okay, sister, guess how much money we made today?"
How much?
"We have a total of over 200 yuan, isn't that amazing?"
A gentle voice came from the bare house: "Amazing, you guys are the most amazing."
Qin Bai walked to the window and saw the three people inside through the broken glass.
Besides the brother and sister, there was also a woman's back view.
He didn't go in; he just watched quietly.
The moment the woman turned around, Qin Bai's pupils trembled involuntarily.
The woman's skin was very white, but not in a normal way; it had a sickly appearance.
She doesn't have the stunning beauty of Feng Yaoyao; she can only be described as having delicate features.
Her long hair was casually tied back, giving her a friendly, approachable look.
She was about the same age as Qin Bai, but the floral dress she was wearing looked a bit outdated.
"Sister, are you going to the flower shop again tomorrow? Why don't you stay home and rest? Business has been very good these past few days."
The woman affectionately pinched the little girl's cheek: "Wen Si, you can't go selling flowers every day. You still need to focus on your studies, understand?"
The little girl named Wensi nodded obediently: "Sister, don't worry, I'm doing very well in my studies now. I'll go and memorize my lessons after I finish eating."
The woman turned to look at the little boy: "Mingyuan, how have you been lately?"
"It's fine." The little boy ate his food in silence, avoiding the woman's eyes.
"Xu Mingyuan."
Hearing the somewhat serious tone, the little boy quickly put down his chopsticks, lowered his head, stood up, and walked to the woman's side.
"Sis, don't be angry, I was wrong."
"What exactly happened? Why did the teacher call me and say you got into a fight?"
Xu Mingyuan didn't explain the reason, he just kept admitting his mistakes, as if he was afraid of making the woman angry.
Wen Si bit her lip and said, "Sister, don't be angry. Mingyuan got into a fight with others because they bullied me."
"Wen Si, eat properly and don't make your sister angry." Xu Mingyuan quickly stopped her from arguing.
The woman put away her serious expression: "Alright, alright, I'm not made of paper, I'm not that easy to get angry at."
He ruffled Xu Mingyuan's hair: "I won't scold you anymore. This time it wasn't your fault. Next time Wensi is bullied, you have to help her, understand?"
"Okay, I understand." The little boy nodded vigorously.
"Alright, alright, let's eat."
Suddenly, a strange noise from outside the door interrupted the three people's conversation.
"Who? Who's outside?"
......
