Shancai Rebirth: My Choice

Looking at the little girl's appearance, she was an experienced person and had guessed something.

He believed in his son's character and believed that he would not do anything particularly excessive.

"Okay, sit down and see what you like to eat." Chengnan pulled Shanlai to sit next to him and brought her a bowl of seafood porridge.

"Class loves to drink this."

"I stewed it early in the morning, you can try it." Chengnan looked at Shanlai expectantly.

Under her gaze, Shan Lai picked up the spoon and took a sip. The porridge was soft and sticky, with the sweet taste of shrimp in the mouth. It was simply seasoned with a little salt and it was really delicious.

"Hmm, it tastes great. Aunt Cheng, your cooking skills are amazing." Shan Lai praised, then took another sip.

Hanazawa Rui had just come downstairs at this time, and as soon as she came downstairs, she saw her mother bringing her porridge.

Seeing the girl drinking porridge with a smile on her face, he was in a good mood too.

"Mom." Hanazawa Rui greeted and sat down next to Shanlai.

"Yeah." Chengnan nodded slightly, then started drinking the soy milk next to her.

Shanlai just drank the bowl of porridge, and Chengnan thought she was embarrassed.

She coughed lightly and said, "Lei, bring the plate of taro cakes next to you over to Shanlai."

"No need, Aunt Cheng. I don't eat much in the morning, so this bowl of porridge will be enough for me." Shan Lai said quickly, fearing that Lei would bring the plate of taro crisps over.

"Auntie understands that little girls love beauty, but that kind of thing is something she likes to eat more." Chengnan blinked.

Hanazawa Rui considerately brought it to her. Shanlai was too embarrassed to refuse, so she had to pick one up with the chopsticks next to her.

She took a bite. The crust was crispy and the filling was very soft and sticky, but the sweetness of the taro itself was almost absent.

It's really delicious.

"Is it delicious?" Chengnan asked her with a smile.

Shanlai nodded.

When Chengnan saw that the food was almost cooked, she just drank two sips of soy milk and quickly went out, saying that Ximen's mother had asked her to go appreciate paintings.

After she left, Shanlai just kept drinking the porridge in the bowl, wondering why there was so much porridge and it took him so long to finish it.

Hanazawa Rui was different. He drank his cereal and ate his sandwich slowly, looking at the person next to him intentionally or unintentionally.

"Eat slowly, no one is trying to snatch the food from you." said Hanazawa Rui.

He took a sip of cereal and just looked at Shan Lai.

Shan Lai felt a little uncomfortable being stared at. She couldn't drink the porridge in her bowl anymore. "Why are you looking at me?"

"I'm wondering when you can give me the seafood porridge you made." Hanazawa Rui said this as a matter of course, without any awareness that he was asking for it himself.

Shanlai was speechless.

"The porridge this morning was made by my mother." Hanazawa Rui kindly reminded.

Shan Lai put down the bowl and looked at Hua Ze Lei in front of her. She didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Have you finished eating? If you have, I'll take you out for a walk." Huaze Lei still looked at her, automatically ignoring her little expression of glaring at him.

"Come on, I'll take you for a walk." He stood up from the chair. Today was the weekend and there was basically nothing to do.

Shanlai had no choice but to put down the bowl, stand up, and follow Huaze Lei out.

Looking at the car parked in the yard, Shan Lai remembered that her car keys were still in the room, so she had to turn around and look for them.

After she went up the stairs, she walked towards the room where she had stayed last night, and as she walked she realized something was wrong.

This wasn't where she stayed last night.

It's over. I heard that the Hanazawa family's villa has some outstanding features. It's true.

Perhaps because of the different building structure, Shanlai walked around again and stopped in front of the door of a room.

It looked a bit like the room she lived in, so she turned the doorknob and walked in without thinking.

The first thing you see when you enter is the huge floor-to-ceiling window and the easel next to it.

The whole room is decorated in a minimalist style, even the quilt covers are in earth-tone Morandi brown, and there is nothing too brightly colored.

Except for the painting on the easel.

Shanlai looked around the room. It seemed to be a kind of room.

She wanted to go out, but when she saw the painting on the easel, it looked familiar, so she walked over slowly.

When she walked to the easel, she was stunned.

The painting on the easel was clearly of her.

It was the way she looked yesterday in that aqua blue dress.

She was so engrossed in the painting that she reached out and touched it, completely unaware of the door opening and footsteps behind her.

"Does it look good?" A voice came from behind her, and the breath touched her ears, making her feel itchy.

Her face flushed.

"Lei, Senior Lei, why are you back?" She spoke haltingly.

"This is my room, what do you think? Hmm?" Hua Ze Lei leaned over to her ear and exhaled a sweet breath, and the refreshing minty scent on his body penetrated her nose.

"I, I took the wrong way." Shan Lai wanted to slap himself twice. Just look, why is she so engrossed in it?

"It's okay." Hanazawa Rui said and slowly stood up.

"Since you are so engrossed, I will teach you." Huaze Lei stood up, took the paintbrush beside him and handed it to Shan Lai.

Shanlai didn't know whether to accept it or not.

Seeing that she didn't take it, Hanazawa Rui turned the easel around and put the paper back on.

He naturally took Shanlai's hand and asked her to sit in his usual seat.

Hanazawa Rui raised his hand, holding the paintbrush, and looked at her with his head tilted. The sunlight shone on him, and he just happened to smile. His smile was like the warm little sun.

Shan Lai knew what he meant, but still took the paintbrush.

Class walked behind her and held her hand holding the paintbrush.

Her breathing suddenly became rapid.

Although he also held her hand and wrote last night, it was nothing compared to what was happening now.

He was so close that she could hear his heartbeat.

She was petite, and he just wrapped his arms around her completely. She could even feel his body temperature.

"Don't be distracted and study hard." Lei's gentle voice sounded in her ears.

His lips seemed to be pressed against her ears when he spoke, and she didn't dare to move for fear of touching them.

Don't be distracted and study hard. With such teaching method, she didn't learn how to paint and was just busy listening to him talking.

"Haha, actually, I also learned painting when I was in Country M. It's not necessary to be so troublesome." Shan Lai leaned forward as he spoke, trying to keep some distance.

"No trouble." Huaze Lei grabbed her waist and pulled her into his arms.

He lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "Be good, don't run around, you can't draw, right?"

Before she could answer, Huaze Lei smiled and continued, "Oh, yes, Shan Lai told me that she is not good at drawing."

Shanlai's eyes widened as he listened to his words.

She is not good at drawing?

When did she tell him?

Why doesn't she remember?

Looking at her puzzled expression, Huaze Lei ignored her, forcefully pulled her hand and started drawing on the paper.
