410 What Can I Do?
When Shangguan Yunâer heard this, she became more and more confused. She stood rooted to the ground. After a long time, Shangguan Yunâer said, âButâ¦What can I do?â
Dong Xi pulled Shangguan Yunâerâs hand and said, âMadam, you can take your time to think about it. The great path cannot be achieved overnight. You can only take big strides forward after you have chosen the path.â
Shangguan Yunâer seemed to have listened to Dong Xiâs words. Shangguan Yunâer nodded her head, no longer at a loss even though it was late at night.
Shangguan Yunâer looked at Dong Xi pulling her hand, Shangguan Yunâer felt a little strange in her heart.
In the past, Shangguan Yunâer would reject even Little Yaâs touch, let alone men.
But this time, it was extremely strange. Shangguan Yunâer was actually able to accept Dong Xi holding her hand?
Why? Was it because Dong Xi treated her very well? Or was it because this hand was soft, just like a girlâs hand, and it was very nice to hold?
Shangguan Yunâer was puzzled. Dong Xi smiled and said, âMadam, what are you good at?â
Shangguan Yunâer narrowed her eyes and thought for a moment. Then, she said hesitantly, âI think that painting is not bad.â
When Shangguan Yunâer said this, she sounded a little unconfident. No one had ever taught Shangguan Yunâer how to draw.
Everyone knew that her father loved her dearly, but they did not know that Shangguan Yunâer was now in her forties. Twenty years had already passed since her father had gone into seclusion twice.
In these forty years, in order to protect Shangguan Yunâer, Shangguan Yunâer never left the house.
Painting was only Shangguan Yunâerâs pastime when she was bored.
Other than Xiao Yue, no one had seen Shangguan Yunâerâs painting, and no one said that Shangguan Yunâerâs painting was very good.
Hearing Shangguan Yunâerâs words, Dong Xi said, âmadam, can you draw something? May I admire it?â
Shangguan Yunâer nodded and asked Little Yue to bring a brush and ink.
Seeing that Shangguan Yunâer was about to draw, Dong Xi immediately said, âMadam, shall we go to the courtyard to draw? I wonder if I can become the person in Madamâs painting?â
Shangguan Yunâer looked into Dong Xiâs eyes and felt a little warm in her heart. This was the first time someone had paid so much attention to Shangguan Yunâer.
âSure,â Shangguan Yunâer smiled and said.
Dong Xi held a fan in her hand as she stood among the flowers. Her eyes were burning as she looked at Shangguan Yunâer.
Shangguan Yunâer stood in front of the drawing board, especially focused.
Seeing Shangguan Yunâer like this, Dong Xi suddenly felt that Shangguan Yunâer might really be walking down this path. When Shangguan Yunâer was painting, she was always alone.
Dong Xi took advantage of Shangguan Yunâerâs painting and circulated her spiritual energy for two weeks.
Dong Xi had the wood spirit root, so she was even more suitable to stand among the flowers.
After an unknown amount of time, Shangguan Yunâer suddenly put down her brush. Shangguan Yunâer said, âIâm donoe.â
Only then did Dong Xi stop circulating her spiritual energy and walk to Shangguan Yunâerâs side.
There were a few brushes hanging on the drawing board. The tips of the brushes were stained with various colors of ink. Shangguan Yunâerâs hands and hands were also stained with some, but Shangguan Yunâer did not care. Her face was filled with joy.
âHusband, my drawing isnât very good. Iâm sorry to make a fool of myself,â said Shangguan Yunâer.
Dong Xi went forward to take a look and was instantly stunned on the spot.
This⦠Was it bad?
In the painting, Dong Xi stood among the flowers with a fan in his hand. Even the wind blowing her hair and her eyes were vividly drawn.
Dong Xi did not know how to evaluate this. Dong Xi did not know much about art appreciation, but she knew herself.
In this painting, Dong Xiâs charm was simply one of a kind.
More importantly, Dong Xi felt that she looked a little like Senior Brother Song Qingfeng in the painting. Could it be because of the fan?
Shangguan Yunâer saw that Dong Xi did not speak for a long time and thought that it was because the painting was not good. She was immediately disappointed.
âHusband, if you donât like it, I wonât continue painting it,â said Shangguan Yunâer.
As he said that, he told Little Yue to put away the painting. Dong Xi quickly snatched the painting and put it away.
âNo, you have to!â Dong Xi said. âThis is a gift from Madam. Why donât I like it? Itâs just that the painting is too good. Iâm a little stunned by the painting. Madam, please donât blame me.â
When Shangguan Yunâer heard these words, she immediately laughed. Shangguan Yunâer said, âHusband, do you really think that my drawing is very good?â
Dong Xi immediately said, âItâs not that I think so. It really is great. I donât need to flatter you. Your abilities are obvious, Madam.â
âYouâre saying such nice things. How can I be that good?â Shangguan Yunâer said.
Finishing, Shangguan Yunâer turned around and left.
Dong Xi immediately left with her.
Little Yue called the others over and put away the drawing board. Dong Xi and Shangguan Yunâer had already returned to the room.
Shangguan Yunâer sat down and looked at Dong Xi. Shangguan Yunâer sighed lightly and said, âI know youâre just saying nice things. How can I be that good? Iâm just casually paintingâ¦â
