Chapter 151: Mysterious beast vs. mysterious beast! (1)
In the study, Xiao Yao picked up his pen and turned his wrist, practicing his painting skills as he did every night.
Si Wuxie's painting style leans toward freehand brushwork. She has an open-minded nature, so naturally she cannot learn the exquisiteness of fine brushwork. The freehand brushwork suits her perfectly. After practicing every night these days, Xiao Yao's freehand brushwork has made great progress.
The tip of the pen is like a dragon flying across the paper, covered with a layer of black brilliance that is hard to find, leaving a dark or light ink mark. A roc takes shape under her pen. As she clicks the pen, finally
The eyes were also lit successfully.
Shocked!
On the paper, a layer of black brilliance flashed, and the roc bird instantly flapped its wings, broke straight through the window paper, and burst out of the window.
Xiao Yao was startled and raised his face to look at the bird.
In mid-air, the Peng bird's movements froze slightly, and with a roar it dispersed into an invisible black dust smoke, which quickly dissipated. Xiao Yao lowered his face and looked at the drawing paper under his hand, only to see that the ink marks on the paper had long since disappeared.
"Could it be...?!" Looking sideways at the brush in his hand, Xiao Yao raised the corners of his lips and chuckled, "My painting has finally been stolen!"
Chess, piano, books, and tea are all easy to steal. Only the painting and calligraphy department, like a closed door, has been shutting her out. Now that she has finally crossed that threshold, how could Xiao Yao not
happy.
Putting down the pen in her hand, she strode out the door, looked at the window broken by the bird, and then looked at her right hand, her face full of joy.
If she hadn't been afraid of surprising her mother and Liu'er, she would have wanted to laugh twice.
Putting his hands behind his back and looking in the direction of Qianqiu Academy, Xiao Yao slightly raised the corners of his lips with a look of joy on his face, "It's a pity that Si Wuxie is not here, otherwise, I would have had a good drink with him!"
On the rooftop in the distance, Chonglou stared at the figure in the courtyard. Hearing her voice faintly enter his ears, he unconsciously raised a faint smile at the corners of his masked lips.
Turning around, he twisted his figure and disappeared into the night.
Feeling a strange movement in the distance, Xiao Yao turned his face in confusion, and the smile on his lips had dissipated, "Chonglou, one day, I will surpass you!"
Turning around and walking back to the study, she picked up her pen again and started practicing with concentration.
======
The Xiao family mansion.
The head of the family, Xiao Jiuzhong, was wearing homely clothes and was reviewing military reports from the north in his study.
He frowned slightly, obviously not in a relaxed mood.
"Master!" The old housekeeper gently opened the door and came in, placing a bowl of hot ginseng tea in his hand on his table, "You can drink some tea first and then look at it!"
Xiao Jiuzhong put down the pen in his hand, gently picked up the tea and took a sip, "Is there any news about Xiao Yao recently?!"
"The young master's injury has almost healed. He has been busy with the Xiaoyao Pavilion on Golden Street these past few days. I heard that the young master has thought of a lot of new ideas. What is that called... a membership card? Yes, that's a membership card.
I heard there are levels!" The old butler said with a smile, "The young master is not only versatile in civil and military affairs, but I didn't expect that he is also so talented in business!"
Xiao Jiuzhong's face was calm, but the joy in his eyes betrayed his mood, "No one else knows about what happened in the store this time, right?!"
"Don't worry, sir, I did this myself. The shop owner will leave the capital in a day or two, and the Thirteenth Young Master will definitely not know about it!" The butler filled the empty bowl for him, with a hint of taint in his eyes.
With a worried look, "I have also investigated Chu Wentian's matter clearly. This matter... was done by the Ninth Young Master's mother-in-law!"
