Chapter 669: Chapter 669: Discussing a Picnic
Han Enzhen rolled her eyes, "Who wants your ride, I can take a cab ho myself."
Fu Sen grabbed her wrist, looking very serious, "Enzhen, I know you’re still bitter about my cold-heartedness. I was slow to realize my feelings for you. Even if you don’t like , treat
as an ordinary suitor, is that okay? I just want to take you ho."
Han Enzhen was taken aback by Fu Sen’s sudden solemnity. She shook off his hand and grumbled, "Fine, give
a ride. But why are you still holding my hand? Which suitor would just grab a girl’s hand without her consent? You’re such an old lecher."
For so reason, she couldn’t muster up the will to reject him when she saw his expression just now. But shortly after she agreed for him to give her a ride ho, she imdiately regretted it.
She quickly added, "Let
be clear, I’m only agreeing to let you take
ho, that doesn’t an I’m accepting your pursuits. I’m just tired and want to get ho to rest."
Fu Sen’s eyes twinkled with amusent. "I understand. You’re just tired. Let’s go, my car is just up ahead."
Han Enzhen followed behind Fu Sen awkwardly. Suddenly, she found that being with him wasn’t so bad ?? aside from his forr stone-hearted deanor, everything else about him was pretty good.
No, how could she have beco soft-hearted?
This old man barely paid any attention to her back in the day, even complained about her being too clingy. She lacked independence, he said. Not anymore, she wouldn’t allow herself to beco soft-hearted. She wasn’t the naive girl she used to be.
Han Enzhen reinforced the wall she was building in her heart, determined not to let Fu Sen break through.
anwhile, Tong Yao and Si Chen had finished saying goodbye to all their guests. Tong Yaohui and Wen Yun were left to deal with the aftermath at the hotel. Tong Yao, Si Chen, and Si Boyi were driven ho, where Si Chen politely invited Cheng Feng up for a cup of tea. They were surprised when he unexpectedly agreed.
All their guests having left, Si Boyi and Zhang Lijuan took their children into the bedroom to rest. Qin Xiaoshuang returned to her room as well.
Tong Yao and Si Chen stayed in the room to feed their baby while Guo Jinnian and Gu Hongwei chatted with Cheng Feng and Wang Chun. Sister Zheng served tea to everyone to enjoy.
Wang Chun admired the painting on the wall and then looked at the signature. She asked curiously, "Is this painting by the Miss Han Enzhen we t at dinner? It’s really beautiful."
Guo Jinnian nodded. "That’s right, she did it. She’s traveling around the country participating in various exhibitions right now. I don’t really understand art, but I think she’s very talented."
Wang Chun gazed at the painting. "It’s very atmospheric. She’s really talented. This painting might be worth a lot soday."
As Han Enzhen’s reputation rises, so too will the value of her artworks. Wang Chun’s words were a testant to her talent.
Guo Jinnian’s eyes lit up as if he’d discovered a way to get rich quick. He said eagerly, "I’d better get a painting from her too. Who knows, it may end up being an heirloom for my ho."
This comnt set everyone laughing.
Cheng Feng looked at Wang Chun curiously. "Miss Wang, do you also like oil paintings?"
This was the first ti Cheng Feng had spoken directly to Wang Chun. Hearing his voice, Wang Chun turned to look at him and smiled. "Yes, I’ve liked them since childhood. But because of so things, I stopped being involved. I plan on resuming painting now, but I’m not very talented at it. It’s just a hobby for ; I don’t expect to create any great works."
Although Wang Chun was currently unemployed, she was far from poor. Among today’s young people, she was considered wealthy.
Even Cheng Feng didn’t own as many properties as her. Since she was not skilled at managing them, she let her relatives handle everything. Every year, the money transferred to her account was more than enough to last her several lifetis as long as she didn’t make extravagant purchases.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call Wang Chun a wealthy lady.
She could afford to pursue painting as a hobby now.
Before Cheng Feng could respond, Guo Jinnian said, "Achun, you’re already amazing. I’ve never even held a brush, let alone drawn anything. You should give
one of your paintings too! I’d hang it in the living room. It might beco a family heirloom."
Wang Chun chuckled softly, "If you don’t mind my lack of skill, how about this? We go for outdoor sketching tomorrow, and I’ll paint one for you."
Wang Chun quite enjoyed chatting with Guo Jinnian. She found Guo to be straightforward and refreshing, a rare quality among young won.
Guo Jinnian nodded repeatedly, "Deal! We’ll set off tomorrow morning. Should I bring anything?"
Wang Chun put so thought into it then said, "The painting might take several hours, which may bore you. How about you bring sothing to eat or sothing to kill ti with?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Cheng Feng stepped in, "I’m free tomorrow too. Where are you planning to paint? I could give you a ride."
Upon hearing his offer, Gu Hongwei cast Cheng Feng a glance. Cheng Feng wasn’t the type to have spare ti. Today, he offered to drive her back, and tomorrow, he offered to drive the ladies to paint. Whose attention was he trying to catch?
Gu Hongwei looked between Wang Chun and Guo Jinnian, trying to figure out who Cheng Feng was interested in.
Wang Chun was about to decline, not wanting to impose on anyone. But before she could say anything, Guo Jinnian agreed for her, "That sounds great! If you’re not busy, we could all go out and appreciate the landscape."
Then, she turned to Gu Hongwei, "Hongwei, you don’t have anything to do tomorrow either, do you? Want to co along? I’ve been in Kyoto for a while, but I’ve only been hanging out in the city and haven’t really done any sightseeing."
Upon hearing this, Gu Hongwei nodded, "I don’t have anything to do tomorrow, let’s all go together! Maybe we could even invite the Boyis and Xiaoshuang."
Agreent was quickly reached among the group. When Tong Yao ca out of the room, she heard them discussing the outing and asked curiously, "Where are you planning to go tomorrow?"
When Guo Jinnian explained their plans for the next day, Tong Yao thought it was a good idea. "I was just wondering where to take the Boyis since they’re rarely here. It’s great that you’re taking them out tomorrow. Don’t forget to pack snacks and fruits so nobody goes hungry."
Guo Jinnian nodded enthusiastically, "Just snacks wouldn’t be enough. We need to bring roasted duck and braised beef too. I always crave at these days. The food overseas is horrible. I think our food here is far better."
Living abroad for so ti, Guo Jinnian missed the dostic food the most. Every alti, she complained no end about the foreign cuisine, insisting that it was unfit for human consumption.
