Interrupting A Relationship Will Be Struck By Lightning

At night, there was a breeze and a small garden.
These three elements could almost instantly outline the graceful and beautiful scenery in one’s mind.
However, the atmosphere on Yan Xiu and Shen Xi didn’t seem right. It was even a little strange.
As for this strangeness… it mainly came from their silence.
Yan Xiu had always been quiet. He sat there as if he was enjoying himself and didn’t have anything to say. But when it came to Shen Xi, she almost recalled all the strategies and details she had painstakingly thought about previously. In the end, she realized that her mind was empty.
Regarding the feeling of sitting with the person she liked but not having anything to talk about.
Although she was very happy just sitting together, Shen Xi still tried her best to start a conversation.
“Two days ago… I saw that your studio’s new product seemed to have changed its style.” Shen Xi’s tone was a little light and uncertain.
Every word she said sounded like a test.
Yan Xiu nodded in response. “My thoughts are different.”
“The style looks very similar to Monet. I think it’s very beautiful.” Seeing that
Yan Xiu was willing to respond to her, Shen Xi pursed her lips and smiled happily, as if her eyes were flickering.
Even if it was just one more sentence or word, even if it was just a soft response, Shen Xi could feel that she had made great progress.
“You know about Monet?” Yan Xiu was a little surprised.
Actually, very few people could tell the source of inspiration or reference in his new work. Therefore, when Yan Xiu heard Shen Xi say this accurately, his heart couldn’t help but ripple.
Shen Xi raised her eyebrows, her expression looking a little smug. “I’ve learned how to draw before. Although it’s not related to design, we still have something in common.”
“But many people said that my new designs has run out of talent.” Yan Xiu suddenly joked.
Although his tone sounded calm, as if he was telling the truth, Shen Xi, who had already spoken to the other party a few times, could still tell that this was a joke that belonged to the “Yan Xiu style”.
Shen Xi shook her head seriously and denied this claim. “That’s because they don’t understand.”
“I think your new designs has clearly broken through a lot compared to before, especially when you had a piece of clothing last spring that was compared to this new design. That design could be seen at a glance.”
“Also, the theme and design style used this time are especially well combined…”
She really didn’t seem to be patronizing him.
Yan Xiu looked at Shen Xi, who was speaking frankly and even seriously, and suddenly had such a thought.
Actually, the joke he had just made was something he had told other girls previously. Because the other party had used designs and clothes to talk to him in order to please him, he had blocked it with a few words and immediately revealed everything.
But Shen Xi was different. She knew best what Yan Xiu thought of his work.
Most of what Shen Xi said was right.
As Shen Xi spoke, she realized that Yan Xiu had been looking at her without saying anything. She thought that she had made a mistake and her face turned red first.
Her aura suddenly dissipated as she said in an extremely soft voice, “Ah, I was showing off in front of an expert.”
“No.” Yan Xiu became serious.
As if once it involved his domain, Yan Xiu became much more serious, and the frustration of being surrounded by others disappeared from his face.
He replied, “I’m listening to you carefully.”
Carefully, listening.
Oh no, she felt that her face must be red from the heat, Shen Xi thought in panic.
“I, I just said it casually…” She even stuttered.
These words were a little untrue, but only Shen Xi knew.
Actually, in order to have something in common with Yan Xiu, she was not really chatting and gossiping with Xiao Gu every time she went to the shop. She was really seriously looking at every piece of clothing on display in the studio.
She had indeed learned how to draw at home since she was young. Because of her health problems, she couldn’t go out for a long time. Her mother was afraid that something would happen to her, so she hired all kinds of governesses.
This time, it was Yan Xiu’s turn to deny her. “These opinions are very important to me.”
“Which one of my new designs do you like the most?” he asked.
Shen Xi replied without thinking, “It’s the gray set. It’s misty and looks especially like the drizzle in Jiangnan.”
She liked the feeling of being in a warm and gentle village, so when she first saw it, her eyes could no longer contain anything else.
“That’s… unexpected.” Yan Xiu was surprised.
But what he didn’t say was that he also liked that one the most.
After Shen Xi took the initiative to start a conversation about this, the two of them gradually started talking.
From afar, through the banquet corridor and rushing out of the window, one could see Shen Xi saying something to the man beside her with a smile. From time to time, she would smile in embarrassment, but her joy was obvious.
The depressed artist seemed to be happy to have talked about his happy topic. Therefore, he couldn’t help but remove the heavy shell on his body and quietly poke his head out to interact carefully with the other party.
Xian Yu was standing here at this moment and saw this scene.
Looking at the usually cold Yan Xiu talking enthusiastically to that girl, even if Xian Yu originally wanted to look for him, he had no intention of disturbing the two of them at this moment.
“Fifth Brother?” Murong Qiao’s question came from behind Xian Yu.
Xian Yu walked over without changing his expression and pulled his sister, who was about to come over, in the opposite direction.
Murong Qiao looked up blankly and met Xian Yu’s serious expression.
“Let’s go over there.”
He couldn’t wait for the iron tree to bloom. Besides, if he disturbed someone’s relationship, he would be struck by lightning.
Murong Qiao didn’t pay much attention to this. After being pulled away by her Fifth Brother, her attention was diverted.
However, she had only been with Xian Yu for a short while when Xian Yu’s manager called.
“Wait a moment, I’ll take this call.” Xian Yu pointed to the side.
It was not that he couldn’t answer it in front of his Little Sister, but the banquet was too noisy and Xian Yu couldn’t hear what was said on the other end of the phone.
Murong Qiao made an OK gesture at him, then picked up a glass of wine and took a sip.
Hiss… She felt like going to the toilet.
She looked at the wine in her hand and could only choose to resolve the urgent matter first.
Not far away, Jiang Weiyang, who was about to come over to look for her, saw Murong Qiao walking towards the toilet. She raised her eyebrows and followed with her friends.
There were so many people at the banquet that it was impossible to remember every face. Murong Qiao was focused on going to the toilet and didn’t notice that there was a little tail behind her.
When she entered the washroom, Jiang Weiyang directly nodded at her friend.
“Help me keep an eye on this place. I’ll go in for a while.” She gestured.
Her friend nodded. “Just go.”
Jiang Weiyang walked in and pretended that she was coming to the toilet. Then, she went in and saw Murong Qiao’s bag by the sink.
She walked over quietly, turned on the tap, and pulled open the zipper. The faint sound was covered by the sound of the water. Then, she found the foundation powder and changed it with the one in her bag.
The banquet had just started, so she didn’t believe that Murong Qiao wouldn’t touch up her makeup.
Jiang Weiyang closed the zipper confidently. Then, she heard the sound of someone preparing to come out and flashed into the nearest empty stall..
