Lu Zeqing has been very leisurely recently. Maybe Jiang Siyu’s house is too comfortable and he doesn’t want to go out every day.

He took a lot of photos of flowers and plants in the sunroom this morning. His photography skills are not very good, but the real scene is beautiful. After taking the photos, he returned to the living room.

The living room was large, and there was no coffee table. Thinking of Jiang Siyu’s words, he had no intention of entertaining guests. Lu Zeqing happened to use the hall as a dance studio and practiced basic skills for an hour.

After sweating all over, he went back to the bathroom and took a comfortable bath. When he came out of the bathroom wiping his hair, he heard what sounded like the doorbell ringing.

He doesn’t need to guess to know it’s Jiang Siyu.

“Don’t you know the password?”

Jiang Siyu didn’t expect that he was taking a shower at noon, wearing a bathrobe, and the water drops on his hair rolled down the curve of his neck into his collar. He paused and looked away.

“There is no reason to open the door casually even if I know the password. What if you don’t wear clothes at home…”

Lu Zeqing interrupted him.

“…I don’t have that kind of habit.”

Of course Jiang Siyu knew that he didn’t, but the sudden beauty coming out of the bath gave him such a big shock that he couldn’t help but speak.

Lu Zeqing was not so casual in front of him before. Jiang Siyu was a little happy, but also a little melancholy. This showed that Lu Zeqing did not regard him as a possible development partner.

“You go and blow dry your hair, I don’t need you to greet me.”

Lu Zeqing: “…”

Jiang Siyu is more familiar here than him.

Lu Zeqing really didn’t care. In the past two days, Jiang Siyu often came to visit, and Lu Zeqing was used to it. Lu Zeqing came out again after blow-drying his hair, and changed his clothes.

Jiang Siyu raised his eyes and looked away with a little regret.

“We will leave for country J tomorrow. Remember to pack your luggage at night, including your clothes for the week of recording the show. Then we will fly directly to the recording location.”

“Okay.”

“Have you eaten?” Lu Zeqing asked him.

“Not yet.”

“I haven’t eaten either, so let’s order a takeout.”

Jiang Siyu had no objection. Lu Zeqing looked down at his phone. Jiang Siyu was sitting on the sofa. He held his chin and his eyes fell on Lu Zeqing’s delicate face.

The slender eyelashes were a bit seductive, and Jiang Siyu resisted the urge to touch them.

“Is it okay to eat maocai?” Lu Zeqing has recently become fond of less healthy food.

“It’s up to you.”

“You have gained a lot of followers on Weibo recently.”

The studio had anticipated that after the scandal was reversed, Lu Zeqing’s experience would attract many passerby fans, who were more or less distressed by Lu Zeqing’s experience. Of course, most of them came because of his appearance.

“I haven’t been on Weibo recently.”

Lu Zeqing lived in such a big house for the first time and had a lot of fun. He stayed with Jiang Siyu during the day and watched stars in the garden at night. It was difficult to see stars in the city because the lights were too bright, but occasionally he could see a few flashing slightly.

Opening the window and enjoying the cool breeze made him feel comfortable. Lu Zeqing enjoyed this slowed down life and even spent less time playing with his mobile phone.

“Everyone on the Internet is guessing which guest you serve as a foil.”

This was told by Jiang Xia, an internet addicted boy, that Jiang Siyu thought Jiang Xia was nagging and gossiping, so he directly blacklisted this younger brother.

Turning around, he talked about this matter with Lu Zeqing.

Lu Zeqing didn’t care, “Have you guessed it?”

“The most discussed ones are Qi Nan and Wei Yang.”

Wei Yang didn’t hide his dislike for Lu Zeqing on his face, but because he was a guest of the blue team, netizens shifted their target to Qi Nan.

Everyone could see that Lu Zeqing didn’t like to talk to Qi Nan.

“Qi Nan has been busy doing live broadcasts recently to increase his popularity.”

After hearing the live broadcast, Lu Zeqing’s first reaction was that he had recently forgotten to record for his food reviewing vlog, and he almost became lazy after receiving a huge sum of money.

Lu Zeqing quickly drove the laziness out of his body, this was not going to work.

Making money is a big deal.

Don’t let it go just because you have money for a short period of time. Lu Zeqing put the matter of making money on the agenda again.

“Did you watch his live broadcast?”

Lu Zeqing’s casual words fell into Jiang Siyu’s ears, and alarm bells immediately sounded, “I didn’t watch it, it was Jiang Xia who told me.”

“Oh.”

Lu Zeqing gave him a strange look.

He doesn’t understand why Jiang Siyu was so nervous.

“Can live streaming increase popularity?”

“What are you watching? There are some pets, selling goods, and chatting. Qi Nan is painting on the live broadcast.”

Lu Zeqing moved his hands.

“Where is the live broadcast?”

Jiang Siyu opened the short video APP.

Lu Zeqing didn’t like Qi Nan, but he had to admit that Qi Nan’s paintings were indeed beautiful, and they happened to hit one of his few aesthetic points.

He clicked on a recording.

What came into view was Qi Nan’s face. He greeted the audience in the live broadcast room with a gentle smile.

“I haven’t made any announcements lately. I’m on vacation. Last time, the pumpkins said they were sorry they couldn’t see me painting, so I’ll fulfill everyone’s wish.”

[Is there any benefit for fans?]

[Ahhhhh, that’s great.]

[Woowoowoo, why did you turn to the drawing board? I want to see your face!]

[The baby is so good-looking, I really like Xiao Qi’s face]

“It’s inconvenient for me to record alone and move the camera. Let’s just look at the painting.” Qi Nan explained and said nothing more. The hand holding the brush appeared under the camera and gently sketched on the paper.

The barrage finally quieted down.

Lu Zeqing pulled back the progress bar and saw at the end an oil painting of sunflowers.

[I would like to praise this artist, the painting is really good]

[This composition is so clean and beautiful]

[My baby is so amazing]

[Has anyone seen the recent works of painter Q? His recent use of colors is so bold! The impact is so strong, it looks really good.]

[He uses bold colors? It’s obviously messy]

[Sorry, I can’t appreciate it. I can only understand Xiao Qi’s paintings, they are beautiful!]

Painter Q.

Lu Zeqing paused with his fingertips, thinking that he had been selected by several foreign groups to paint at the art exhibition. Was he also doing the live broadcast?

Out of curiosity, Lu Zeqing also searched the live broadcast room of Painter Q. He had not broadcast live for a long time.

The live broadcast of Painter Q is about teaching painting. It has not many viewers and its ranking is not high.

Likewise, he only pointed the camera at the drawing board. Lu Zeqing did not watch the recording, but flipped through a few of the displayed works.

Different from his teaching drawings, when he paints by himself, his personal style is more obvious, with very strong colors. He is indeed very bold in using colors and does not stick to the colors of nature.

The colors in each painting are extremely bold. Lu Zeqing thinks his colors are very beautiful. He doesn’t know how to appreciate them, but he just feels that the colors bring a strong sense of impact.

The pinned message has only one sentence: The live broadcast will be irregular.

From the comment sections of several videos, Lu Zeqing learned that Painter Q was not in the country. Just when he wanted to look at something else, Jiang Siyu’s deep voice came to his ears.

“So fascinated?”

Only then did Lu Zeqing realize that he was holding Jiang Siyu’s cell phone.

“No, just taking a look.”

…

The next day, Lu Zeqing and Jiang Siyu arrived in Country J.

After getting off the plane, the person in charge picked them up and took them directly to the hotel. “The shooting will be tomorrow morning. If the two Sir are not tired, you can also go shopping near the hotel. The commercial street over there is very lively.”

“Mn, thank you.”

“I’ll ask the assistant to pick you up at nine tomorrow, is that okay?”

“Yes.”

After making an appointment, the person in charge took the assistant to go through the formalities, “This is the room card, Sir, please keep it.”

Lu Zeqing’s assistant has not yet been recruited, so Yan Qiu asked Jiang Siyu’s assistant to take care of Lu Zeqing by the way. Anyway, the two of them had the same schedule.

“Tired?”

Jiang Siyu asked.

“A little sleepy.”

Lu Zeqing yawned, but he didn’t want to use this time to catch up on sleep. This was his first time going abroad and there was no filming in the afternoon. He really wanted to take a walk.

“Shall we go have a meal?”

“Okay.”

Lu Zeqing had no objection, Jiang Siyu winked, and the assistant immediately understood, and disappeared from the sight of the two of them within three seconds on the pretext of helping them put their luggage.

“Have Brother Yu been to Country J before?”

“I have.”

“If you want to play, I’ll take you.”

“Take me to find something to eat first, I’m starving.” There was plane food at noon, but Lu Zeqing was a little airsick and didn’t feel well so he didn’t eat. He asked for a cup of hot water and put on an eye mask to try to numb himself with sleep.

“Have you ever been airsick before?”

Lu Zeqing shook his head, “No, it’s the same as riding in a car. Occasionally, if I’m not in good condition, I’ll faint.”

After getting off the plane, Lu Zeqing came over slowly. Jiang Siyu suspected that Lu Zeqing might be a little anemic, and thought about taking him for a physical examination when they returned home.

“Let’s go, I’ll treat you to a big meal.”

Lu Zeqing happily followed him, unaware that he had spent almost all of this week with Jiang Siyu.

A month ago, Lu Zeqing was still avoiding Jiang Siyu, but now he can walk leisurely side by side on the street.

Lu Zeqing joked.

“Then I want to eat the most expensive one.”

*

“I don’t see anything strange.” Feng Mo stirred the coffee carelessly, “You are quite interested in Qi Nan.”

Qi Zeyu didn’t answer. He hadn’t seen Qi Nan for many years.

Qi Nan left the Qi family when he was fifteen or sixteen and did not return to China until half a year ago.

When Qi Nan was a child, he was a little afraid of Qi Zeyu. Qi Zeyu was not very young at that time. Although he always pretended to be a young adult, he also had a young master’s temper.

He is not very friendly to Qi Nan, who is new and steals the attention of everyone in the family.

Qi Nan always hides when he sees Qi Zeyu.

Later, Lu Nianchu noticed it and gave Qi Zeyu a lesson and told him that they were both his younger brothers and he wasn’t allowed to bully them.

Qi Zeyu had never done anything bad, and he occasionally played tricks on Qi Nan. Later, when he got older, he felt that his behavior was a bit childish, so he didn’t bother anyone anymore.

Qi Nan was in poor health and frequently went to the hospital. Qi Zeyu rarely saw Qi Nan after going to school and had little chance to be alone with him.

Later, when he skipped a grade in the third grade of junior high school, Qi Nan returned to his biological mother.

At that time, Qi Zeyu also scolded Qi Nan. The Qi family had raised him for so long, yet he just left without any nostalgia. It was not until half a year ago that Qi Nan returned to China.

Qi Nan asked them if they could still stay at Qi’s house.

The Qi family has always treated Qi Nan as their own child. If he is willing to come back, the Qi family will naturally be happy. Qi Zeyu didn’t notice anything wrong at first.

Until a few days ago.

Qi Zeyu accepted a cross-border video conference in the early morning. After the meeting, he didn’t feel sleepy. He wanted to go to the yard to get some fresh air, but then he saw Qi Nan, who was also awake, entering the studio.

Lu Nianchu specially hired someone to renovate the studio when Qi Nan was a child. After Qi Nan left the Qi family, the studio remained there and was cleaned regularly by the aunt.

Hanging inside are paintings that Qi Nan left behind when he was at Qi’s house.

Qi Zeyu didn’t pay much attention at first, just thinking that Qi Nan couldn’t sleep and went to paint. As a result, he heard the aunt report in panic the next day.

One painting was damaged by a knife. The aunt was worried that her employer would misunderstand that she had damaged it, so she hurriedly explained.

Only Qi Zeyu was at home that day, so only Qi Zeyu knew.

The aunt had been working at the Qi family for many years and would not destroy paintings for no reason. Except for Qi Nan who entered the studio the night before, Qi Zeyu could not imagine anyone else doing this.

He didn’t quite understand why Qi Nan deliberately destroyed his own paintings.

He had heard that some painters would destroy their works if they were not satisfied with them, but he felt that Qi Nan was not like that.

What Qi Zeyu didn’t understand the most was why Qi Nan, who had been using a paintbrush since he was a child, suddenly stopped painting.

Qi Nan showed his talent for painting when he was very young. Although Qi Zeyu had no ability to appreciate art and thought everything he painted was ugly.
