After a while, Lu Xicheng sent me to the door of Zhou Yanli's villa.
Zhou Yanli doesn't live here, so I don't have to worry about him asking me where I've been. After all, he is my boyfriend now and still has the right to ask me.
"Lu Xicheng, don't tell anyone that I went to Yunshuiting tonight, did you know that?" Before getting off the car, I told Lu Xicheng, otherwise it would not be good news and it would not have a good impact on Zhou Yanli.
Lu Xicheng nodded honestly, "Don't worry, I did hold out hope before that you and Brother Han could get back together, but now you are with Yan Li, and Brother Han and Nan Yu are about to achieve enlightenment. Each has his or her own path. Returning home, I won’t mess around anymore.”
Hearing this, I breathed a sigh of relief. Naturally, I don't have to worry about Deng Jing'er. She will never go out and talk nonsense.
After watching Lu Xicheng leave, I breathed a sigh of relief, then went back to the villa and quickly took a shower and dried myself. However, the injury on my arm still hurt a little because it was wet with water today and soaked too much. Long.
I called Sister Ping, who applied medicine to my wound, and then bandaged it for me. After I felt a little more comfortable, I went to lie down and rest.

When I went to work the next day, the news of Jin Han and Nan Yu's engagement was finally released.
The relationship between the two of them has been talked about by the outside world. Many people have been guessing when they will make an official announcement. Unexpectedly, the official announcement will be that they are engaged.
"Yiyi, let's go have a meal!" After Zhang Xiuqian saw the news, he put down his phone and took care of me while I went to eat.
I was concentrating on painting when I heard him calling me to eat in such a hurry. I was a little reluctant, "Master, you go and eat first. I'll finish everything here before eating."
"This work can't be done in a short while, let's eat first!" Zhang Xiuqian insisted on dragging me to eat. I had no room to refuse, so he directly dragged me up and left.
Then I was taken to a five-star hotel by Zhang Xiuqian. We just had a normal work meal for the two of us. Is it necessary to be so extravagant?
I was confused, looking at a table of exquisite and sumptuous meals, and asked, "Master, is today a special day?"
"It's not a day. Can't we just have a good meal on an ordinary day?" Zhang Xiuqian told me the truth about life while eating, "I mean, Master, I have lived for fifty or sixty years, and I have realized something. The truth is, we are all here to experience life, don’t be bound by too many things, just always look forward..."
I was a little confused. Do I look decadent today?
I suddenly thought of Jin Han and Nan Yu's engagement, and I couldn't laugh or cry, "Master, do you think I was in a bad mood when I heard that Jin Han and Nan Yu were getting engaged?"
"No, no, no, I know you must be an open-minded person. I just thought of my own life, so I sighed. If it can make you feel something, that would be even better!" Zhang Xiuqian quickly waved his hand.
I know he is still worried about me, but it’s hard to say it directly.
After dinner, I returned to the studio and still went to work injured.
I had almost completed the custom-made painting that Zhang Xiuqian told me about before. Zhang Xiuqian was watching from the side until I finished it. He checked it over and found that there was no problem, so he patted me on the shoulder, " Very good, I’d say you’re very talented!”
I don’t know if I have talent, but working with Zhang Xiuqian, I feel like I like painting more and more.
These paintings need to be inspected by the customer in person. If there are no problems, Zhang will be given the final payment before repairs. At that time, he will give me all the money.
Although it seems a bit shameless, I really need money now because the next repayment will come soon.
"Thank you, master, thanks for the guidance." I replied sheepishly.
"What's there to thank you for? If you become famous in the future, you'll be considered a blessing to me. Come on, you will be a great painter in the future!" Zhang Xiuqian smiled happily and encouraged me.
As soon as he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed, as if he felt very uncomfortable, and then he hurried to the bathroom. I didn't know what was wrong with him, and I didn't even have time to ask.
A few minutes later, Zhang Xiuqian came back, but his complexion obviously became worse. I asked worriedly, "Master, are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"I'm fine. It's just that my stomach hasn't been feeling well lately. Maybe I drank too much." Zhang Xiu waved his hand to tell me not to worry.
I didn’t think much of it because he was definitely a bit of a drinker.
"You drink less alcohol, it's not good for your health." I advised.
Zhang Xiuqian nodded, looking obedient, and then he waved his hand and told me to get off work first. He wanted to rest here for a while, or maybe spend the night here.
The studio is equipped with a separate room where you can rest, sleep, and even wash. Sometimes Zhang Xiuqian is too lazy to go back, so he spends the night here alone.
He has never married, has no children, and his parents have long since passed away, so he has no worries, and it doesn't matter where he spends the night.
"Okay, I'll go back first." I nodded, said hello and left.
I didn't know that Zhang Xiuqian's situation was very bad after I left. If I had known, I would not have left so easily.

"You can go in."
The day after Jin Han and Nan Yu announced their engagement, I met my dad as I wished.
Someone informed me that I could go in for a visit, and my heart almost burst out of my chest.
The meeting this time was not separated by glass, but in a small room with prison guards guarding the room.
"Dad!" When I saw my dad, tears burst out of my eyes instantly. Fortune plays its tricks on people, and a person who has been going smoothly all his life suddenly has an accident, and it seems that it only takes one night.
My dad's hair is getting whiter, probably because of physical pain. His body is obviously more stooped than before, and when he sits down, he is very slow.
But he looked at me with very eager eyes, full of care and worry, "Yiyi, how are you and your mother?"
"Dad, don't worry. My mother and I are doing well, but she hasn't woken up yet..." I held my father's hand, my voice choked slightly.
"Okay, okay, as long as you are fine, the company..." My dad started to care about the company again.
I told him everything that happened after he was arrested, including the fact that my biggest debtor is Jin Han. I thought he would scold me, but he didn't.
My dad was silent for a while, then sighed, "It's hard for you, Yiyi. Ever since you were a child, your parents didn't want to see you suffer, but now we can't help you, and you have to deal with the mess."
