At noon, after the two of them had a simple meal at home, Zhong Xiao 'ai took the picture frame and left.
As she drove, she recalled what had happened in the morning and felt a little uncomfortable.
It was too awkward.
If it were anyone else, Zhong Xiao 'ai would have left long ago.
However, she did not want to be too sensitive when she was facing Lin Yaozong, who was a young boy. This caused a series of ambiguous atmosphere.
As she was thinking about this, Zhong Xiao 'ai's phone suddenly rang. She took out her new iPhone and opened it. It was a call from Hou Liangping.
She was inexplicably flustered, as if she had made a mistake and was being checked.
However, Zhong Xiao 'ai quickly calmed down. As she slowed down, she answered the call.""Hey, what's wrong, Ryohei?"
"I'm downstairs at your office. I heard from your colleague that you didn't go to work today? Where did he go?"
"I went to Yaozong."
"Oh? What happened to Lin Yaozong?"
"It's nothing. Didn't Yao Zong draw an oil painting for Liu Shan previously? I thought it looked pretty good. Today, after Yao Zong finished his exams and I was on vacation, I asked him to draw one for me.”
"Is that so? She did not expect Lin Yaozong to have such a skill.”
Hou Liangping clicked his tongue." Tsk tsk, you don't have to say it. Qi Tongwei's nephew is quite versatile." He was good at his studies, knew how to write a book, and could even paint. When he entered university in the future, he would definitely be a famous figure like Qi Tongwei.”
Back when he was at Handong University of Political Science and Law, Qi Tongwei could be said to be a well-known figure on campus. He was good-looking, capable, and good at studying. Countless young girls liked him.
Later on, he got together with Chen Hai's sister, Chen Yang, and they were known as the perfect couple. However, not long after Qi Tongwei graduated, he got together with Liang Lu, who was ten years older than him. This was something that no one expected.
"Alright, let's not talk about him anymore."
Zhong Xiao 'ai didn't want to talk about Lin Yaozong with Hou Liangping right now because she felt an inexplicable sense of guilt. She changed the topic.""Are you free this afternoon?"
"Miss Zhong, do you think I'm fine or not? If you say I'm fine, then I'm fine.”
"Garrulous!"
" Hmph!" Zhong Xiao 'ai snorted." Come to my house directly. I'll bring this frame back. Help me hang it up."”
"Alright, Miss has instructed me to be there in half an hour!”
After hanging up, Zhong Xiao 'ai adjusted her state of mind as she drove.
"It's just a misunderstanding. Don't think too much. Lin Yaozong is just a younger brother. When I was in school, he was just a cell.”

After graduation, Zhong Xiao 'ai rented a house.
The location was not far from the Supreme Court.
The environment was not good, but it was not bad either.
When she returned home, Zhong Xiao 'ai had just put away the bedsheets when the doorbell rang. She ran out to open the door. It was Hou Liangping.
Hou Liangping held the toolbox he had prepared in his hand and said with a smile,"Where? I've brought all the hammers and nails."
"Hang it on the top of the bed in the bedroom."
Zhong Xiao 'ai took out a pair of slippers for him to change into before leading Hou Liangping into the bedroom.
As soon as he entered, Hou Liangping saw the picture frame leaning against the wall. He put down his toolbox and walked over to take a look. His eyes immediately lit up.
Zhong Xiao 'ai's work attire included a white shirt, but it was similar to her figure. In the painting, Zhong Xiao' ai was wearing a large shirt with her white legs crossed and her hands casually placed. This kind of lazy and seductive beauty was indeed very rare.
Zhong Xiao 'ai was a decisive person, and she rarely acted like a little girl.
After taking a closer look, Hou Liangping suddenly turned around and said,""Lin Yaozong's drawing is pretty good, but it doesn't look like you.”
"What do you mean I don't look like you? This is me!”
Recalling Lin Yaozong's previous words, Zhong Xiao 'ai snapped,""Yao Zong is right. You haven't noticed my beauty!”
"How could that be!"
Hou Liangping's expression immediately changed when he saw Zhong Xiao 'ai suddenly getting angry.""I just feel that this painting is a little different from you. Of course, I see your beauty. Besides, I…"
"Alright, stop quibbling."
Zhong Xiao 'ai didn't want to hear Hou Liangping's explanation. She grabbed the toolbox on the floor and said,""Let's begin. Put the frame on the bed.”
"Alright."
Hou Liangping knew that he had said something wrong, so he obediently took out a ruler from his toolbox. He first measured the width and height of the frame, then used his fingernail to mark out the predetermined position on the wall.
Only then did he take out a small hammer and a nail and start to hit the place where the eye was supposed to be.
A moment later, after the hook was done, Hou Liangping picked up the frame, found the right angle, and successfully hung the painting.
Zhong Xiao 'ai, who had been standing at the back, looked at the portrait and the white wall. She nodded in satisfaction and said,""Not bad, you hung it quite nicely."
"Well, you brought a shirt over today?”
Hou Liangping took a few steps back. After checking that there was no problem with the placement of the frame, he suddenly noticed that Zhong Xiao 'ai was wearing a large white shirt.
He turned around and looked at Zhong Xiao 'ai, only to see that she was wearing a sunblock jacket and a tank top.
"Ah?"
Stunned, Zhong Xiao 'ai stammered,""No, I didn't."
"Then how did Lin Yaozong draw this style?" Hou Liangping was puzzled.”
"Maybe Yaozong thinks she looks good like this. When he drew Liu Shan previously, he didn't see her wearing a dress.”
Zhong Xiao 'ai's gaze was a little erratic. She didn't know why she didn't tell him the truth.
Perhaps he just didn't want Hou Liangping to misunderstand?
Or perhaps he didn't want Hou Liangping to laugh at him, so he spilled soda on himself.
Hou Liangping didn't think too much about it. He looked at the painting carefully and said in approval,"Lin Yaozong is quite artistic. This painting gives me a good feeling.”
"It's pretty good. Unfortunately, he applied for Tsinghua University.”
Zhong Xiao 'ai also thought that the painting was very good. If Lin Yaozong was not good at his studies, he would have applied to an art school.
