MTL - After Marrying the Villain, I Became Popular-Chapter 28 2 in 1
He bought a can of iced Coke at a convenience store near the school, the student opened the tab with one hand, raised his head and gulped two sips.
The early summer sun hit his eyelashes, he squinted involuntarily, and the cold liquid slid down his throat, gradually calming his faintly restless heart.
The phone vibrated in his pocket, it was Cui Xiaoheng, his manager at the covered bridge.
Cui Xiaoheng is a very gentle girl, she always speaks softly.
"Mr. Xia," Cui Xiaoheng asked, "there will be an important art exhibition in two days, can you provide some more works here?"
Xia Wan has been busy with other things recently, so I don't have much time to paint.
Even if I occasionally find time to doodle a piece or two, I will upload it to the video site.
Hearing this, he thought for a moment and asked, "How much do you need?"
"Two pictures should be enough." Cui Xiaoheng said, his voice was a little lower, and asked again, "Can you see it?"
She also knows that this request is a bit too strong.
After all, creation is different from other industries. It takes time, chance, inspiration and the collision of many other elements to produce good works.
Two paintings, sometimes it may be completed in a few days, but sometimes it may take a year or two to complete.
No one can say anything like this.
"Didn't you hand in the past two a while ago?" Xia Wan was a little puzzled, "Is it inappropriate?"
The way he cooperates with Covered Bridge is a commission system. Once the work is sold, he will receive the final payment from Covered Bridge.
But so far, except for the final payment for the first piece of work provided when signing the contract, there has been no movement.
It stands to reason that the two paintings that were handed in later should be still on the covered bridge.
There are so many contracted painters in Covered Bridge, and he does not think that four of his works can be presented in one exhibition.
"Those two pictures." Cui Xiaoheng smiled unconsciously, "Mr. Xia's painting skills are so good, one of them was taken away by our boss on the day it was delivered."
She said this without realizing it: "My God? You haven't received the final payment for this painting, have you?"
Xia Wan smiled: "Well."
"Sorry, my fault," Cui Xiaoheng hurriedly apologized, "Because there is no record of this transaction in the system, I forgot to hand in the receipt."
Accompanied by her voice, there was a slight keyboard tapping on the opposite side: "I will help you arrange it immediately."
"Thank you." Xia Wan smiled and thanked.
"By the way, there's another..."
Xia Wan drank Coke slowly and listened to Cui Xiaoheng while walking.
In fact, after the new sample booklet was sent out, many old customers were optimistic about the work.
It's just that Xia Wan is still a newcomer now, and the price can't be raised for the time being, so Li Yue suppressed the painting and wanted to wait until after the exhibition to officially hang it up.
Before signing the contract, Xia Wan already had an in-depth understanding of the covered bridge.
In terms of creating painters, Langqiao rarely borrows a set of methods from the entertainment industry, so their business can expand rapidly far beyond their peers.
It is even more unique in creating star painters.
Since she chose to cooperate, Xia Wan naturally believes in the other party's decision.
"So," he hesitated, "it may take a week for two pictures, is that okay?"
"Yes, yes." Cui Xiaoheng said happily, and praised, "Mr. Xia is really amazing."
The little girl's mouth is so sweet, which makes Xia Wan laugh unconsciously.
.
This requires that two top works must be created within a week of the summer evening.
A week is really short, and summer evenings don’t have that much inspiration.
He thought about it and decided to use his previous works reasonably.
In the dormitory, as usual, Su Tang was wearing headphones and was chasing the rich and powerful drama, and Shen Xing had not come back.
Fu Ling is a child in the dormitory with relatively average family conditions.
He had no parents since he was a child, and was raised by his grandparents, so he was also the one who received the most business drafts among the four in the dormitory.
At this moment, he is concentrating on drawing the manuscript.
"You're back." Hearing the movement, Fu Ling rubbed his stiff neck and turned his head.
"You won't sleep all night, right?" Xia Wan was startled by the huge dark circles on his face, so he hurriedly looked closer, not only that, but his eyes were also full of red Silk.
Fu Ling heard the words, hugged Xia Wan's waist, and buried her face in his arms: "I envy you so much, you can marry into a wealthy family, and you can become popular by eating, And my clients just pick and choose from me.”
"What's wrong?" Xia Wan laughed and rubbed his head.
"Cough." Suddenly, a light cough came from the door, and Shen Xing walked in with his bag on his back.
As always, he glanced coldly at the two who were hugging tightly.
"The king of cold noodles is here." Fu Ling whispered, and then let go of the hand that hugged Xia Wan.
"Late night," he raised his hand and rubbed his tired eyes, "Help me see what is wrong with this painting."
Xia Wan bent down, looked closely at the screen, and then made a few strokes back and forth on Fu Ling's hand-painted board.
"Fuck me!" Fu Ling exclaimed, "You're a genius."
Fu Ling had already thought that he had painted perfectly enough, but Xia Wan did a few random strokes, but only slightly expanded the lines, and the layout of the whole painting seemed to be completely different.
Smooth, natural, and feel at ease at first glance.
It's not much better than the original.
"What's the matter? What's wrong?" Su Tang heard the exclamation, quickly took off her headphones, and looked over with wide eyes.
Puff.
Shen Xing finally couldn't hold back and laughed briefly.
"Smile." Su Tang snorted coldly.
"Even if you laugh, you have to have a response, don't you?" Shen Xing was not angry, he leaned back in his chair lazily, "My new store is open, I will invite everyone to dinner at noon."
"Wow!" Fu Ling immediately became energetic, and the huge dark circles under his eyes could not stop his radiance, "What store?"
Shen Xing thought for a while: "There are all styles, do you want to try them?"
"Yes." Fu Ling made a decision.
"I may be busy for a while at noon." Xia Wan was a little hesitant to sort out the second-hand oil painting paper she had collected and never used.
"You don't want to eat anymore?" Fu Ling was very surprised, "You've changed, late night."
Xia Wan swallowed and looked at Su Tang unconsciously.
"I don't eat it." Su Tang snorted and turned away.
"My brother is not here," Shen Xing smiled, "Besides, eating his food and drinking his own, but trying to exploit him, can you still breathe out?"
Fu Ling didn't quite understand what Su Tang had to do with Shen Xing's brother, but he raised his hand in conscience for the sake of the Overlord's meal: "Yes!"
Seeing Su Tang hesitate to hold her cheek, he secretly poked at Xia Wan.
"Then... go." After thinking for a moment, Xia Wan compromised without principle.
Sure enough, I felt much more comfortable after I agreed.
Xia Wan heaved a sigh of relief, and pushed Su Tang again: "Go, go, our dormitory is indispensable."
"Isn't '1' there?" Su Tang raised his finger and pointed at Shen Xing, then Xia Wan gave him a heavy push on the head.
"Oh!" Fu Ling never understood the situation and moved his gaze to Su Tang and Shen Xing, which was meaningful.
Su Tang was taken aback by him and hesitated for a moment: "Then go?"
At the same time, Shen Yan sneezed twice.
Huo Yu raised his eyes from the thick stack of reports and asked, "Have you caught a cold?"
"No." Shen Yan was also a little inexplicable, "I don't know how good my health is."
Huo Yu snorted and continued to look down at the report in his hand.
"If you continue to lower the stock price to buy," Shen Yan said, "Huo Peixue should find out."
Huo Yuqu gently tapped the table with his knuckles, and said, "Sooner or later."
"How are the Huo shareholders doing?" Shen Yan asked.
"There are very few people who are willing to transfer their shares, and the amount is very small," Huo Yu said. "It's a bit difficult in general, but it's to be expected."
He said, raised his eyes and smiled: "When Huo Lin's network is closed, it should not be much worse."
"It's not much worse than that." Shen Yan said, "Now think about it, when your parents were still there, our Shen family should also take some shares in."
"Who can predict the future?" Huo Yu smiled and said, "You have helped me a lot."
"I'm not helping you for nothing." Huo Yu seldom said such polite and warm words, Shen Yan was not used to it for a while, and awkwardly said, "I will also benefit from it."
Huo Yu smiled lightly and said nothing.
He knew better than anyone else that Shen Yan paid far more than that.
Huo Yu read the documents at hand, and the two exchanged views on some controversial projects for a long time.
At this moment, Shen Yan's phone vibrated, and a news message came out.
Shen Yan opened the news and looked at it, then laughed lightly.
"It's getting late," he looked up and said to Huo Yu, "Let's go and have a meal at my new restaurant."
The Shen family has blossomed everywhere in terms of restaurants and hotels.
Originally Shen Xing said that their new store opened, Xia Wan thought it would be similar to the Japanese food and hot pot restaurant he had been to with Huo Yu before, but he did not expect it to be a comprehensive entertainment place similar to the imperial capital .
The interior is luxuriously decorated and there are many projects. After reading for a while in front of the huge guide board on the first floor, in the summer evening, I found that the top two floors are the restaurant.
As soon as Fu Ling entered, he immediately turned into a quail.
He followed closely behind Su Tang and Xia Wan, and the words that he had been saying all the way were lost.
Wait for a meal.
Fortunately, Shen Xing had already reserved a box.
The four entered the box, and Shen Xing pushed the menu to Xia Wan and the three of them.
After entering the confined space, Fu Ling finally recovered.
He and Xia Wantou touched their heads and ordered mandarin fish with pine nuts, charcoal grilled steak, corn roast, and two green vegetables, and then passed the menu to Su Tang.
Su Tang opened the menu, her eyelids drooping, and a bunch of dishes were reported in different names:
Good guy!
Xia Wan sighed secretly, this is really running for revenge.
When he closed the menu, Shen Xing nodded slightly to the waiter: "Two more bottles of good wine."
"Tang Tang," Fu Ling's mouth twitched when the waiter went out, "Aren't you too wasteful?"
"Shen Er," Su Tang looked sideways at Shen Xing, "You finish your pot."
Shen Xing:…
While waiting to serve, Xia Wan couldn't help but get together with Su Tang and Fu Ling again.
"I dare not eat turtle," Fu Ling whispered to Su Tang, "eat yourself."
"Do you dare to eat late?" Fu Ling asked Xia Wan after muttering.
Summer evening shook his head.
"It seems that who dares to eat it?" Su Tang raised her hand and put it to her mouth, "I just see that it is expensive."
Shen Xing smiled lightly: "I eat."
"Turtle tonic, I heard that eating it will cause fire." Fu Ling raised his eyes to Shen Xingdao.
Shen Xing didn't say anything, just glanced at him with a half-smile.
Fu Ling pursed his lips, not knowing what Shen Xing meant.
After a while, Shen Xing smiled slowly: "It's good to let it out."
Su Tang was shocked, and immediately raised her hand to cover Fu Ling's face: "Protect our roommate."
The phone vibrated on the desktop, and Fu Ling hurriedly got out from under Su Tang's claws. Looking at the news just pushed, he couldn't help but let out a "wow".
Xia Wan and Su Tang rushed over and stared at Su Tang's phone screen together.
The movie "Guanlan" changed roles, Zhou Shu was out.
There are several photos on the screen, which should be sneak photos from the perspective.
Zhou Shu and a middle-aged man went from getting in the car, to kissing, to returning to the love nest together.
Fu Ling pointed his fingertips on the screen and pulled up the news content.
He sighed while watching: "Damn, it's so heartwarming, my male **** is finally reconciled."
The comments of netizens under the news are even more enthusiastic”
If you pour it on Sun Yingdi, the gold owner is a cow. 】
[Is the threshold for gold owners so low now? Isn't that Huo Lin's uncle? Who can tell me what he has? 】
】
【Grass! I always thought that she was Huo Lin, hahaha, didn't Huo Lin have to talk about Huo Lin before? It's really the funniest news of the year, bar none. 】
[Sun Yingdi really never collapses. 】
】
[How much is the annual salary of Sun Yingdi, even if there is no business at home...]
[…]
Fu Ling drew a few lines and put his fingertips on the input box with satisfaction.
【Sun Baijiang I love you, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah…
Su Tang saw where he had been, "Ah," endlessly, and clicked send for him.
"Hey!" Fu Ling was indignant, "I haven't finished it yet."
Half of the table was served, and Xia Wan quietly withdrew from their camp.
He just picked up his chopsticks, and Su Tang pulled him again: "Have you noticed that it is summer now, but Zhou Shu and Li Sheng in the photo are wearing autumn and winter clothes. "
"Does it matter?" Fu Ling asked.
Su Tang is worthy of being a child from a wealthy relative, with excellent observation and thinking skills.
"Stupid." He poked Fu Ling's finger, "You think, Zhou Shu and Sun Baijiang happened in the summer, Sun Baijiang couldn't have known in advance, right? He can still travel back and shoot wear their pictures and wear them back?"
"Yes." Fu Ling was stunned and puzzled, "Then why are they wearing autumn and winter clothes? Are they playing cross-dressing?"
He said while denying himself: "That's not right, isn't it better to wear as little as possible when playing cross-dressing?"
Su Tang helped her forehead helplessly, and then looked at Xia Wan, only to see that Xia Wan was holding a sea cucumber there, burying her head and biting.
Su Tang:…
"Cough!" Su Tang coughed heavily.
"Why?" Xia Wan looked at him, chewing in his mouth.
"The top of your head is going to glow green, so you can eat it." Su Tang poked his bulging cheeks with hatred.
"What's the matter with me?" Xia Wan wondered.
"You think, why do they wear autumn and winter clothes?" Su Tang felt that she was also worried about her roommate's happiness.
Xia Wan held his cheeks, and after a while he suddenly realized: "Is the photo taken before?"
"BINGO!" Su Tang finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that his roommate was still alive, and he continued to guide him, "Then you think, who would take their pictures early? Why would you take pictures of them secretly?"
Xia Wan frowned and thought deeply.
This thought really made him think of something.
"Do you suspect that Huo Yu broke the news?" Xia Wan was startled by her own thoughts.
"I didn't say it." Su Tang said, "But either Sun Baijiang has been keeping an eye on the movements of the Huo family, or Sun Baijiang has maintained Huo Yu, and Huo Yu has secretly released information to the media. , to protect Sun Baijiang, otherwise this situation is difficult to explain."
"But you said there was green light on my head." Xia Wan was angry.
When several people were discussing heatedly, Shen Xing finally put down the soup bowl in his hand and turned on his mobile phone to read.
"Eh? Su Tang," Shen Xing suddenly said, "I won't confiscate your love letter in the future?"
"Why?" Fu Ling showed a look of gossip.
"Because my partner may be stupid," Shen Xing said slowly, "I'm afraid that he will become my sister-in-law in the future, and my partner will suffer."
"Huh?" Fu Ling reacted for a moment, and finally understood the meaning of Shen's jargon.
He wailed: "It turns out that I am a single dog in our dormitory?"
This summer dinner was a little distracted.
Photos of Zhou Shu and Li Sheng kept flashing in his mind, accompanied by Su Tang's questions from time to time.
When he went to the bathroom halfway, he opened the window at the end of the corridor and blew the air.
The wind in the early summer was lukewarm, accompanied by the intermittent sound of the elevator not far away, making his originally slightly confused mind finally sober up.
He looked down at the small beetle-like car below the tall building, and the rows of tung tree whose leaves were swaying in the wind, and couldn't help but laugh.
What if Huo Yu did it?
In fact, it had nothing to do with him.
Su Tang and the others don't know, but he himself is very clear that he and Huo Yu are acting.
And…
He didn't even think about going really with Huo Yu.
He took a deep breath and turned to leave, but accidentally bumped into someone else.
Xia Wan looked up and was about to apologize, only to realize that it was Huo Lin standing behind him.
"What a coincidence?" Huo Lin looked down at him.
Xia Wan didn't speak, bowed his head and was about to leave.
Huo Lin moved his footsteps with his movements, and stood in front of him again.
"It's late." Huo Lin called his name, "Can't you even talk to me now?"
Xia Wan's face turned cold: "Of course not."
"No," Huo Lin said, "Take a ten thousand steps back, if you are married to Huo Yu, then you should be considered half of the Huo family, right?"
"I can't afford to be your Huo family," Xia Wan smiled lightly, "After all, I'm married, and your family wants Huo Yu to have a blind date."
Huo Lin was choked and had nothing to say.
He went out for a drink with a few partners today, and he was touted as high-spirited along the way.
"I watched all your live broadcasts." Hollin changed the subject after a moment, "It's cute."
"If you're really nice to me, you shouldn't tell me," Xia Wan said, "so that I won't feel disgusted next time I live stream thinking that you might be watching too."
"Xia Wan!" Huo Lin seemed to be stabbed by this sentence, "You will regret your choice sooner or later."
"You can say this too, right?" Xia Wan raised his hand and took out his ears, "I hear your words, and I can hear calluses in my ears, can you be more practical, Say goodbye to the past quickly."
His expression was correct: "Don't say that Huo Yu and I will not regret it, but I really regret it, four-legged pigs are hard to find in the world, but two-legged people are everywhere. , you are not the only one, Huo Lin, and..."
He lengthened his voice: "Even if you are really the only one left, I hope everyone can be in the southern hemisphere and the northern hemisphere. It's better to never see each other again."
Seeing that Huo Lin's face became more and more ugly, Xia Wan didn't dare to stimulate him too much.
He raised his hand and pushed on his chest: "A good dog will not stand in the way."
The next moment, Huo Lin grabbed his wrist and pushed him to the corner.
"You must still like me," Huo Lin said, "that's why you hate me so much."
Summer Evening:…
He couldn't help but regret it. For those who don't understand human words, he shouldn't waste his time.
Xia Wan struggled hard, but Huo Lin's strength was so powerful that he quickly pushed Xia Wan to the corner of the windowsill and leaned over him.
Huo Lin has a strong alcohol smell on his body, unlike Huo Yu, who always has a faint woody aroma and tobacco smell intertwined, making people feel at ease and comfortable.
"Huo Lin," Xia Wan said coldly, "You are lewd."
Horlin paused, then leaned down again: "What obscenity? We are emotionally entangled."
As he spoke, his breath swept across Xia Wan's nose, making Xia Wan feel disgusted: "Why don't we go down and open a room, and I will break off from the Qiu family..."
Huo Lin could not avoid it, and bent down with a groan.
And as he bent down, Xia Wan was caught off guard and met a pair of extremely cold eyes.
The next moment, Huo Yu strode over.
Xia Wan didn't see how Huo Yu made his move, when he heard Huo Lin's scream, the whole person hit the wall of the corridor, and even the murals hanging on the wall were hit small. The amplitude swings up.
Xia Wan threw herself into Huo Yu's arms, turning her eyes red.
"Husband," he whispered, "he bullies me."
Huo Yu took him into his arms and kept stroking the back of his head and back.
"Shen Yan," he thought of Huo Yu's voice coldly above his head, "Turn up the monitoring and call the police."
