Painter

Stretch your right hand diagonally downward, bend your fingers, and make a gesture of grabbing an object.As the fingers tightened, a knife handle appeared in the palm.Raise your hand slowly, increase your strength with your left hand, and with a violent swing, a knife is really pulled out.

Bai Qian took the knife he had just "drawn" from the dumb kid's hand, looked at it carefully, pointed to the end of the knife, and said, "Here, the arc is too big, it should be smaller. Can I try again?"

The child didn't seem to hear it, didn't show any expression, just sketched an outline in the air, and ignored it.A knife suddenly appeared in the air, fell down and hit the ground directly, startling Bai Qian.

Bai Qian bent down to pick up the knife, and said speechlessly: "I mean the arc is too big, it should be smaller. Hmm... make it straight, not curved, understand?"

The child blinked, and finally focused on Bai Qian's words.After Bai Qian explained it for a long time, he tried again, earnestly drawing a...hook...

Bai Qian held his forehead and said weakly: "Forget it, let's go and play."

On the contrary, he understood this sentence, jumped off the stool, and ran away without a trace.Bai Qian put his head first on the table, put his backhand on his waist, and began to massage himself.He looked up and saw Mu Yueguan, and walked in while looking back at the little mute. The veil covered his face, so he couldn't see her expression.

Mu Yueguan asked, "Low pain?"

Bai Qian nodded: "A little bit, sitting for too long."

Mu Yueguan hesitated for a while, and tentatively said: "You lie down, let me rub it for you?"

Bai Qian hurriedly waved his hands and said with a smile, "No need, just a small question—what do you want?"

Mu Yueguan sat down on the round stool, scratched his nails, his movements were careless, obviously "I have something on my mind".Bai Qian followed naturally, and asked again: "What's wrong?"

Mu Yueguan raised his head suddenly, looked at Baiqian through the veil, and said with difficulty and hesitation in his tone, "Let's go back to Fanxi!"

Bai Qian was a little puzzled, and asked back, "Why do you want to go back all of a sudden?"

Mu Yueguan didn't answer, but lowered his voice and asked, "Bai Qian, you...will you go back with me?"

Bai Qian couldn't figure out the situation at all, and explained awkwardly: "What the hell..."

"You know it?" Mu Yueguan cut off his words, immediately lowered his head after asking, and fought hard against his fingernails.The voice was low and fragile, as if a gust of wind could blow it away, "I... I know, my brother will not come back... I am the only one left..."

Hearing what she said, Bai Qian was completely fooled, and immediately stretched out his hand to lift her veil, so as to see her expression clearly.But Mu Yueguan withdrew quickly, Bai Qian's hand was empty, and he froze on the spot, he could only ask repeatedly: "It's just that there is no news from Mu Qingjian, so it's uncertain. By the way, who bullied you?"

Mu Yueguan shook his head, his veil swayed like flowing water.It's just that no matter how beautiful the veil is, it can't replace a person's natural appearance.When Bai Qian thought that she was only in her teens and would have to look at people through this veil for decades to come, she couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

Mu Yueguan was facing Bai Qian, with a choked voice, and asked repeatedly: "You will, right? Will you go back with me?"

Bai Qian sighed, and comforted him: "I won't leave you alone until your brother comes back. It's just that we need to discuss the matter of going back to Fanxi. Although it means that the family has fallen, Minglian and Si Qi are still there. I don't know where it is, and no one can guess if there will be another moth. If something really happened, I... I can't help, maybe you have to take care of me instead. "

Mu Yueguan immediately said: "No problem! I can do it!"

Bai Qian smiled wryly: "That's not the problem. I don't want to see you suffer danger or something, do you understand?"

Mu Yue looked at Bai Qian fixedly, for a long time, and asked slowly: "If Fanxi is not in danger, will you go back with me?"

Bai Qian smiled and said, "Of course."

Mu Yue nodded her head, pulled the veil, and concealed her entire appearance: "Okay."

After Mu Yueguan left, Bai Qian thought in a daze that he was indeed drifting too much.Originally, he was willing to stay here in Jingxi in order to compete with the Ming family.Now that the Ming family has collapsed, we just need to wait for Jingxi to find Minglian, and the matter will be resolved neatly, so that Mu Yueguan will not be in danger.

But it seems a little unhappy.When Mu Yueguan said that he was going back to Fanxi, he resisted a little.Instinctively, he would prefer to stay here, but Bai Qian didn't know why.

Rubbing his face with his palm, he suddenly thought of that unexpected kiss.Bai Qian's face was a little hot again, but he couldn't stop thinking about it.

Compared with Jingxi, Yuanli is definitely a very talkative type, and also a person who is good at chatting.When we are together, there is always a feeling of spring breeze, and the whole person is warmed up.

Bai Qian thought about it for a long time, and then he took the things in the cabinet and turned the handwheel to go out, looking for Yuanli.

Yuan Li was drinking by himself with a small flagon, looking lazy and comfortable.Hearing the sound of Bai Qian's wheelchair, he first put away the jug and sat up straight.When Bai Qian approached, he was still full of smiles and looked warm.

Yuan Li asked: "Yesterday you left in a hurry and didn't have time to ask, didn't you fall and hurt yourself?"

When he mentioned it, Bai Qian felt even more embarrassed when he remembered what happened before.Bai Qian shook his head embarrassingly: "No..."

Yuan Li smiled reassuringly: "It's fine if you don't have one. From the very first time I saw you, it was scary. It seems that you can throw yourself down if you look away."

Bai Qian looked embarrassed, and echoed: "I have both legs amputated...it's not very convenient to move around."

Yuan Li suddenly stretched out his hand, put his palm on Bai Qian's right knee, and gently rubbed it twice.Bai Qian trembled reflexively, Yuan Li lightly pressed his leg, leaned closer and whispered: "From now on, don't walk."

Yuanli's voice is soft and smooth, and after being lowered, it brings a little bit of affinity.Like a closed dark room, this voice is the only existence.The hands on the knees are not too hot, and the temperature can hardly be felt through layers of fabric.It's just the strength of the oppression to remind myself that my cripple is being held by others.

Bai Qian was dazed, and then retreated back, explaining embarrassingly: "If you don't exercise, your residual limbs will shrink."

Yuan Li still maintained that posture, and said lightly: "If it's a lifetime, it won't be needed."

Bai Qian smiled and said: "How is it possible, I have to go to the toilet and take a bath by myself. No, no, I am just amputated, not paralyzed. I still need to exercise."

The light in Yuan Li's eyes dimmed slightly, and he regained his energy while breathing, and moved closer.Yuan Li put his arms around Bai Qian's neck, rubbed his chin against his hair, and said softly, "Like this, how about I be your leg?"

……

"Where are you going, I can hug you."

……

"Use your hands for painting, leave the wheelchair to me."

……

Bai Qian's time seemed to stand still for a while, Yuan Li muttered to himself for a long time before he realized it.Bai Qian pushed Yuan Li away violently, blushing and stammering: "No, no, no, this is different from the script! There is no prompt, what do you mean? This is too sudden. I just... yes! I will Bring you something!"

Bai Qian leaned over to search in the box under the wheelchair, but couldn't find anything in a hurry.Yuan Li approached again, pinched Bai Qian's shoulder, and made him look at him.

"Bai Qian, you also have feelings, right?"

Bai Qian turned around again and searched under the wheelchair.

Yuan Li didn't force him to look at him anymore, but he only said persuasively: "The kiss was accidental, but you felt it? I admit it, I have a reaction."

Bai Qian turned back to look at him in an instant, and shouted: "What, you reacted already! You reacted too fast! You should take care of your brother!"

After complaining, Bai Qian looked at Uehara Li's face that was trying to hold back a smile and made a serious face, and felt so ashamed that he wanted to crawl into the ground.Bai Qian coughed dryly twice, trying to save the situation: "I mean, you were just impulsive. No, that was just an accident. It's not appropriate to hug and carry around. You just fell down and bumped into each other accidentally. No No, no, I didn't meet..."

Bai Qian talked more and more confused, Yuan Li's smile deepened, and he asked, "Tell me the truth, do you feel it?"

"...Yes..." Bai Qian admitted resignedly, and then explained, "That's because I... I like men, and it would definitely be embarrassing to have such an accident with a man."

Yuan Li sat down, with a homely look: "Then tell me, what kind of man do you like?"

Bai Qian felt that he had been completely led away by him, bent down to find out what he had brought, and handed it to him with his hands tied: "Here, this is the meeting ceremony we agreed on earlier. Jingxi knows the details, you can ask him how he is. Yes, I'm leaving."

It is a sophisticated version of the bow and crossbow, painted in the original crimson red exactly according to Bai Qian's favorite appearance.

Bai Qian turned around, Yuan Li pressed his wheelchair, but didn't speak.Bai Qian was stunned for a long time, then he heard Yuan Li ask softly, "Does Jingxi know?"

"Hmm! Hmm! He has used it and knows it."

Yuan Li let go of his hand, Bai Qian seemed to run away completely, his hand became faster and faster.Yuan Li suddenly called out "Bai Qian", but Bai Qian pretended not to hear it.He has a good impression of Yuan Li, but this favor is based on Yuan Li's kindness to him, rather than trying to develop a closer relationship.Anyone who cares about him, he will do his best to repay.Just like Jingxi at the beginning, he protected himself with a tough style, so at that time, he also had a good impression of Jingxi.

Jingxi, Bai Qian was slightly taken aback.

Something doesn't seem right.Jingxi's style of work has always been tough, but her attitude towards herself seems to have changed a little.But what has changed?Bai Qian was a little dazed.

Yuanli chased after two steps, walked around to the front of Baiqian, with a slightly serious look: "Holding and hugging...is it really not good? If I like you, I want to hold you forever and never let go .”

Bai Qian sneered: "It's not like that... I had my limb amputated, but I still have a prosthetic limb that I can use. There's no need for others to hold it all the time. How embarrassing."

Yuan Li asked again: "I like you. Would you hate me if I said it so bluntly?"

Bai Qian's face was a little cramped: "It's a good thing to speak out what's in my heart. I'm bored like a gourd by myself. Everyone is like this, so there's no way to communicate. But this kind of thing...is a little different, hahaha... Haha... ha... kind of annoying..."

Yuan Li also smiled: "Or, it would be better for me to talk less?"

Bai Qian hurriedly denied: "No, no, it's not your problem. You're fine, it's just..."

Yuan Li asked forcefully, "Do you like action-oriented ones?"

Bai Qian shook his head: "I want to live a good life here. As a painter, I can achieve something. I don't have to be displaced, I don't have to be calculated by others, and I don't have to participate in bloody scenes. These are very material requirements. Emotionally ...I haven't thought about it yet."

Yuan Li said with a smile: "Then why not think about it now."

Bai Qian calmed down a bit, blushed, nodded slightly and said: "I will... think about it."

Yuan Li patted him on the head: "Go. Slow down, I won't eat you."

Bai Qian turned the wheelchair, and when he turned the corner and looked back, Yuan Li was still standing there.Like a statue, it is a firm farewell gesture.
