I was dedicated by the female lead to the male lead

After returning to S City after two days of greasy little trip, Xia Xiaomu started busy with Xia Qianbai's art exhibition.

Xia Qianbai paints only for obsession, and doesn't care about the external decoration of his works at all. Some paintings don't even have an outer frame.

But if the works are displayed in a large art exhibition, exquisite and atmospheric picture frames are also essential.

And from the perspective of artistic beauty and appreciation, an exquisite picture frame can also bring further artistic value to the work itself.

But if you want to make a picture frame that complements the work itself, it is not a small expense.

Xia Xiaomu sorted them out one by one, and roughly calculated the budget for the 28 oil paintings for the whole body plastic surgery.In an instant, I felt that the little money in my mobile phone wallet was not enough at all.

Why are you still so poor.

So discouraged.

correct.

The list that Qiao Jin entrusted to him has been completed.If you pay, you can get some money.

But he didn't have Qiao Jin's phone number, so he had to call Lu Jinghan.

No one picked up.

Xia Xiaomu felt a sense of loss.

Two days after returning from the mountains, Lu Jinghan started to be busy.Not to mention being able to hug and kiss, you can't even see anyone.

"Hey, I haven't taken over Lu's yet. I'm so busy. If I become the big president in the future, wouldn't I have to guard the vacant room by myself every day?"

Xia Xiaomu sent Lu Jinghan a short message from time to time: --The painting commissioned by Mr. Qiao has been completed.You can send it to him anytime.

Waited for a while with the phone: no reply.

Xia Xiaomu was a little depressed again, and wanted to make a phone call directly, but felt that the two of them had only just started, and they couldn't be so clingy.

It will annoy people, hey.

Because he had an appointment with Ningning at school today, he packed his schoolbag and went to school,

As soon as he met Ning Ning, he pulled him, looked him up and down, his eyes were full of scrutiny, trying to see if he had changed from a boy to a man.

Xia Xiaomu pushed his hand away: "Don't look, there's nothing there. Complete a piece of bi."

Ning Ning couldn't believe it: "No way, what about two nights?! It's impossible to sleep in one room and nothing happened, right?"

"Sleeping in the same house every day, nothing happened for so long."

"That's different. I didn't talk about it before, but now I'm open and honest and don't do anything." Ning Ning stretched out his hand and pinched Xia Xiaomu's slender waist: "However, you are such a seductive little fairy."

Xia Xiaomu patted his hand off: "Don't touch it randomly."

Ning Ning didn't care, and asked him quietly: "I'm hugging and sleeping together, can I bear it? Could the male god be there?"

Xia Xiaomu lowered her head mysteriously and said with a smile, "I still know whether he can do it or not."

Sleeping together, being poked all night, the legs are almost worn out.

"I understand, I don't want to touch you, am I?" Ning Ning gritted his teeth in hatred, "This man, I really want to eat him in one bite!"

Xia Xiaomu hit him with a smile: "Don't think about it, this piece of meat is mine."

"I shouldn't have eaten this dog food!" Ning Ning shook her head sadly and asked him, "What are you doing with such a big bag?"

Inside is "Starry Sky", which he painted in Xia Qianbai's cabin.

Because taking Xie Wen's class required submitting a work, Xia Xiaomu really didn't have time to draw, so she planned to hand in the one she had in hand.

Xia Xiaomu looked worried: "I want to take Professor Xie's class. This is a work that needs to be submitted for review. It is estimated that many students from the art department will sign up, and she only accepts ten students. I don't know if I can be selected by her."

Ning Ning suddenly said: "Oh, this matter, people in our music department have spread the word. It is said that Xie Wen is recruiting students in disguise. If she can be selected, it will be based on her reputation in the art world With the resources at hand, being her apprentice can basically gain a firm foothold in the art world in the future.”

Xia Xiaomu: "That's not what I care about, I just want to learn Xie's unique oil painting skills from her."

Ning Ning comforted him: "She also judged the teacher during the Qingjun Cup. She has seen your strength and is definitely willing to accept you."

Xia Xiaomu nodded: "I hope so."

Separated from Ning Ning, Xia Xiaomu went to the professor's office building alone, and when she got downstairs, she saw Xie Weiwan coming out of it.

Without even thinking about it, she knew that she came out of her aunt's office.

Even though nothing had happened between the two of them, Xia Xiaomu was still nervous and uncomfortable every time he saw her.I wanted to hide but couldn't, so I had to pretend to pass by as if nothing had happened.

However, he was stopped: "Xia Xiaomu, are you here to sign up for my aunt's class?"

Xie Weiwan looked at Xia Xiaomu carrying the large bag of works in her hand, and asked with a half-smile, with a sense of superiority in her tone.

Xia Xiaomu had no choice but to stop, and smiled: "Yes, senior sister. Is Professor Xie in the office now?"

"Yes, good luck to you."

Xie Weiwan flicked her long hair that fell by her ear, continued to smile and said to him: "By the way, you live at Lu Jinghan's house, you should have heard him tell us about us, right?"

He has always been sensitive about Xie Weiwan and Lu Jinghan's affairs. Hearing Xie Weiwan's words, his heart skipped a beat, his hand holding the bag tightened, and he stammered, "You... what's the matter?"

Xie Weiwan was slightly surprised: "Why, he didn't tell you. We're getting engaged, and the engagement banquet will be on New Year's Eve. Grandpa Lu has already started printing invitation cards."

In one sentence, Xia Xiaomu's brain went blank and his ears buzzed.

Lu Jinghan and Xie Weiwan are engaged?

How could it be so sudden!

He stared blankly at Xie Weiwan's smiling face, unable to say a word.

Xie Weiwan would not lie to him casually about such things.

Moreover, he was so immersed in his sweet trip with Lu Jinghan recently that he almost forgot that in the original novel, Lu Jinghan and Xie Weiwan got engaged on the eve of New Year's Day this year.

The time... coincides!

Sure enough, I can't escape the plot in the novel.

He remembered that in the original novel, on the eve of the engagement banquet, Lu Lao announced that Lu Jinghan would become the next successor of the Lu Group, and the topic almost shocked the whole country.

In order to get a glimpse of the appearance of this young successor of the Lu family, almost the entire business and political circles will attend the wedding banquet.It became a good talk for a while, and almost all the reports in the country were blessing this pair of talented couples.

Xia Xiaomu's face gradually turned pale, her eyes couldn't hide the panic and confusion, her mouth trembled twice and she asked, "Yes, is it?"

Xie Weiwan observed the changes in Xia Xiaomu's expression, and a smug sarcasm flashed in her eyes.

Then he smiled and said, "Oh, let's not talk about it. These are all things that the elders decided together last week. I'm embarrassed to tell you this."

"By the way, my aunt appreciates your talent very much, and she should accept you as a student. We will have classes together at that time, and I would like to ask Classmate Xia to teach you a lot."

Xie Weiwan smiled and turned to leave.

Xia Xiaomu stood downstairs in the teaching building without moving for a long time.

Their marriage was finalized last week.

But why didn't Lu Jinghan tell himself.

Three days and two nights, a full 72 hours of close contact, hugged and kissed countless times.

Except for not breaking the last layer, everything that should be done between lovers has been done.

Could it be that Lu Jinghan knew that he was going to be engaged to Xie Weiwan, and he wanted to "be honest" with him at the farmhouse.

Xia Xiaomu was instantly cold.

No, it won't.

Lu Jinghan is not this kind of person.

Last Friday, Lu Jinghan sent him home because he was worried about Xia Qianmo for him.Maybe it was something Mr. Lu decided privately, but he didn't know about it.

However, after returning.

He remembered that Lu Jinghan was called to the old house the night he arrived home on the weekend.It must be Grandpa Lu who told him about the engagement.

Today is Tuesday, two days, and he didn't mention a word to himself.

Why not.

Why did I hear this kind of thing from Xie Weiwan.

Xia Xiaomu's heart was clenched together, and she was so uncomfortable that she could hardly breathe.

Eyes can't lie, Xia Xiaomu can tell that Lu Jinghan really likes her.

But thinking about it carefully, Lu Jinghan hasn't even said "I like you" until now.

I dare not say it.

Don't dare to bear the burden of liking someone.

After all, getting engaged to Xie Weiwan is the quickest shortcut for what he wants to get to the Lu family.

The cold wind in winter hurts people's faces.Xia Xiaomu didn't feel it. She stood under the cold wind for a long time, and the "Starry Sky" in her hand fell to the ground.

After a long time, he bent down to pick up the bag, instead of looking for Xie Wen in the professor building, he turned and left.

Take Xie Wen's class?

Forget it, he didn't have the courage to do it, facing Lu Jinghan's fiancée every day, and still concentrate on learning painting.

In the afternoon, Xia Xiaomu finally received a reply from Lu Jinghan:

-- Qiao Jin's painting has been sent to him, and he will transfer the money to you in a while.

--What time do you leave school at night?I asked Li Hai to pick you up.

He asked Li Hai to pick him up again.

What are you busy with, the engagement banquet?

Xia Xiaomu felt sour in her heart, and twitched her nose to send him a message back:

--Don't bother Brother Hai, I have something to do tonight.

Xia Xiaomu did have something to do. He found a well-reputed oil painting framing shop and planned to go there after school to have a look. If possible, he would put Xia Qianbai's paintings there to frame them.

But today everything seems to be against him.When he came out of the store, it started to rain on the originally good day.

The rain in winter is cold and cold, and the north wind is blowing, making it bitingly cold.

It was late, and it was the rush hour for get off work. He didn't hold an umbrella, and stood on the side of the road in the rain to catch a taxi.But couldn't get one.

The phone buzzed in his pocket, he knew it was Lu Jinghan who was asking him where he went?

He didn't want to pick it up.

Instinctively thinking, this will make Lu Jinghan worry about him, so that he can go home early tonight, meet and explain Xie Weiwan's matter to him.

It was late when I got home.

But there are still only Jing Yi and Aunt Wang in the living room.

Aunt Wang and Jing Yi asked him in surprise, "How did you get so wet?"

Xia Xiaomu sniffled and changed into slippers at the door: "I didn't bring an umbrella, and it was raining and I couldn't wait for the bus. I came back after a few bus transfers."

Jing Yi asked, "Didn't Li Hai pick you up?"

He didn't answer the phone on purpose, Li Hai didn't know where he went.

Xia Xiaomu said guiltily, "I... forgot to check my phone."

Aunt Wang urged him: "Your lips are turning purple from the cold, go upstairs and change your clothes, I'll make you some hot soup to keep you warm, but don't catch a cold."

~~~

When Lu Jinghan came back, it was almost early morning.The house was quiet, so he tried to push Xia Xiaomu's door: it was locked.

Frowning, he went to the balcony to check the situation in Xia Xiaomu's room: the lights were not on.

It's so late, you should be sleeping, right?

When Aunt Wang heard the news of Lu Jinghan's return, she got up in her clothes and knocked on the door of his room:

"Jing Han, when Xiao Mu came back today, she was drenched all over. She couldn't stop running from her nose when she was eating. She might be catching a cold. Besides, this child seems to be in a bad mood today. You guys... quarreled .”

Lu Jinghan had already told Aunt Wang about himself and Xia Xiaomu last week.

Although Aunt Wang was worried that the two of them would be opposed by the Lu family, but seeing that Lu Jinghan was sincere, and Xiao Mu's temper, she could only silently support her.

Seeing Xia Xiaomu's distraught look when he arrived home at night, he was very worried.Even though it was so late, she thought it would be better to tell Lu Jinghan about Xia Xiaomu's situation.

Lu Jinghan frowned: "I see."

Xia Xiaomu has not responded to the message, which has already made him very worried.

Hearing what Aunt Wang said again made him wonder if something happened.

Lu Jinghan was very worried, and wanted to know what happened to Xia Xiaomu immediately.Seeing him asleep again, I couldn't bear to wake him up.

Or wait until tomorrow to ask him.

He absent-mindedly showered, washed, and changed his clothes.In the end, he still didn't survive the struggle in his heart, and found the key to Xia Xiaomu's room from the drawer.

He opened the door of his room softly and walked in quietly.
