Chapter 233 The Intact Painting
Zhang Wei swallowed hard. This was a condition he could hardly refuse; it was something he had always dreamed of...
Xiaoli smiled knowingly and handed him a folded check, saying, "This is your salary!"
Zhang Wei stared at the familiar-looking check, speechless. "Isn't this the same one?"
"Oh well, I can just open a new one~~~"
Xiaoli looked at Zhang Wei expectantly, her tone somewhat dissatisfied. Logically, Zhang Wei should have accepted the check and agreed.
After all, this is a job and salary that he could never earn even after working hard for half his life!
And she could offer even higher terms...
However, Zhang Wei refused, saying earnestly, "Xiao Li, listen to me, you really don't owe me anything! Why can't you understand!"
"Of course I understand, you're still resentful towards me and haven't forgiven me!"
Xiaoli said sadly, puzzled as to why Zhang Wei still refused her compensation...
"I really don't know how to tell you this. Think about it again!"
Zhang Wei sighed, rubbing his temples with a headache as he spoke.
Xiaoli's eyes reddened, and she put away the check, saying in a low voice, "You should think about it again..."
After saying that, Xiaoli left without looking back!
At this moment, Hu Yifei peeked out from behind the cabinet. After confirming that Xiaoli had left, she walked to Zhang Wei's side, looking excited like she had just finished watching the drama unfold. She patted Zhang Wei on the shoulder and said, "Great job, Zhang Wei! Congratulations!"
"Congratulations to me?"
Zhang Wei was still immersed in the argument, and his tone was somewhat low.
Hu Yifei exclaimed excitedly, "Congratulations on passing the second round of tests!"
"What's there to congratulate about this... How boring!"
"Hang in there. Remember this state of mind: calm and composed, unperturbed by praise or criticism. Your current demeanor is very similar to someone else's."
"Linghu Chong?"
"No, it's Yue Buqun!"
Zhang Wei: ......
......
3602.
Guan Gu's room.
"Ah ...
"Ow? Did I hurt you?"
"No~, ugh~ you damn dog~~~"
"Ah~ No, no~~~"
......
With a crisp crack of bones colliding, the sound gradually faded.
After catching his breath, Guan Gu looked at Tang Youyou, who was exhausted, with satisfaction: "Darling, your massage technique has improved again!"
"That's right, this is a closely guarded secret of my Tang family!"
Tang Youyou spoke proudly, but there was still a trace of melancholy between her brows. She glanced at the easel at the foot of the bed from time to time, and then started massaging Guan Gu's legs.
But Guan Gu was completely oblivious and asked with concern, "You've been massaging me for an hour, aren't you tired?"
"Um... I'm not tired at all~"
Tang Youyou's expression was a little unnatural. "I'm your girlfriend. You've worked hard today, so it's only right that I treat you!"
"Honey, you're acting really strange today. Usually, when you come home, you're the one who wants to play with me!"
Guan Gu was happy, but he also felt a little strange.
Tang Youyou's eyes darted around, and she found another excuse: "People can improve too!"
"Your progress is terrifying, with massages and room cleaning all the time!" Guan Gu said smugly.
"Yu Mo taught me!"
"Yu Mo?"
"She told me that women need to be a little coquettish to win every battle. How about it? Aren't I coquettish now?"
Sekiya:? ? ?
Guan Gu smiled awkwardly. What does "嗲" mean? His Chinese teacher didn't teach him that. Does it mean someone is very strong?
But not wanting to spoil the fun, Guan Gu forced a smile: "That's right, you are very cute!"
"If I do something wrong, you won't blame me, will you?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Youyou massaged even more vigorously, glancing tentatively at Guan Gu as she did so.
Guan Gu was currently immersed in the pleasurable sensation of the massage and didn't care about anything else, so he readily agreed, "Of course!"
Seeing this, Tang Youyou was overjoyed; Yu Mo's teachings were indeed useful!
He immediately escalated his efforts, continuing to probe: "What if I ate pan-fried dumplings in your room...?"
"What?! How many times have I told you not to eat in my room?!"
Guan Gu suddenly sat up, shouting excitedly.
Tang Youyou, startled, craned her neck and stammered, "Didn't you say you wouldn't blame me...?"
"Forehead......"
Guan Gu choked on his breath and froze for a moment. "I'm sorry, I got too excited just now. As long as you didn't ruin my drawing, it's fine!"
Tang Youyou: ......
Seeing that Tang Youyou remained silent, Guan Gu suddenly had a bad feeling. "You wouldn't..."
Tang Youyou immediately sat down and apologized: "Okay, I'm sorry, I'm willing to give you a massage for a week as compensation!"
"You... one month!"
Guan Gu was secretly delighted. If it was just an unimportant sketch, this was a huge profit!
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Guan Gu casually asked, "Which one did you dirty? As long as it's not the one I spent several days working overtime to draw, that one is due tomorrow!"
Tang Youyou: ......
Finally, Tang Youyou confessed, pointing to the easel and saying, "It's that painting on the easel..."
"Nani!!!"
Guan Gu completely lost his composure. "That's the original artwork I drew for three days and three nights!!!"
As he spoke, Guan Gu got up to go look at the painting, but suddenly stopped and looked at Tang Youyou with ill intent: "One month plus one week!"
"make a deal!"
Tang Youyou blurted it out without thinking.
"Now let me see what that painting looks like now!"
Guan Gu angrily got out of bed and went over.
After the two stood still, Guan Gu took a deep breath and tore the canvas open.
Tang Youyou covered her face immediately, not daring to do it.
It's hard to imagine what this painting will look like after a day...
"Oh my god!"
Hearing Guan Gu's sigh, Tang Youyou grew increasingly uneasy. "Guan Gu, if you're not happy, add another one..."
"What are you talking about!"
Guan Gu interrupted Tang Youyou, pulling her finger away and pointing at the painting, saying, "Isn't it perfectly fine here?"
"Huh? How is that possible?!"
Upon seeing the painting, Tang Youyou immediately exclaimed in shock. It was simply unbelievable! Where was the zombie whose head had been blown off? Did it smell the brain and go to steal it?
"Okay, I get it now!"
"What do you know?"
Tang Youyou looked at Guan Gu with a puzzled expression, as if she had just realized something.
"This must be your prank, you want to see my reaction after you accidentally ruined my painting, right!"
With an expression that seemed to see right through him, Guan Gu pulled Tang Youyou aside and teased, "But my reaction was perfectly normal, and I even forgave you, so you must keep the promise you just made!"
"Huh? How could that be? I really spat out my food while eating pan-fried buns and it all over the painting..."
Tang Youyou stroked the painting, talking incoherently, and even leaned close to smell the pan-fried buns on the painting.
But I couldn't smell anything...
