In a high-end restaurant with a quiet and comfortable decoration style, as well as melodious slow music, the atmosphere was relaxing and comforting.

The pace of eating here has slowed down.

Lu Si often comes to this restaurant to eat, she likes the taste of this restaurant, and another reason is that the food is served up very slowly.

But this is also a feature of this place.

It allowed each stage of the meal to be used rationally so that there would be enough time for the guests to actually taste the delicacies.

It was not a fast-food style.

What was important here was that it was slow.

“This restaurant is very famous. Has Mr. Xu been here before?”

“Yes, the taste is not bad.”

Xu Yi had been to many places, so he knew a little about eating.

“I hope I haven’t been rude to you today, Mr. Xu. If there’s anything wrong, you must let me know.”

Lu Si smiled gently as she poured Xu Yi a glass of red wine.

She raised her glass.

At the moment of the collision, a clear and melodious voice reverberated in Lu Si’s heart.

Especially when she saw Xu Yi shake his head. “It’s my honor to be acquainted with Ms. Lu.”

Lu Si giggled when she heard this.

She looked at Xu Yi with even more infatuation in her eyes. “It’s my honor to be recognized by Mr. Xu.”

Xu Yi smiled and asked, “Why did you create this painting?”

That painting was a landscape painting, as if this place really existed.

In fact, this place really existed.

After Lu Si realized that more and more people liked this painting, she went there. It could be said that they were carved from the same mold. However, on the day that Lu Si went there, the weather was not perfect. The color was very light, and it did not give people the feeling of being amazed by the painting.

It could be said that the most unique part of this painting was the color.

The color combination was novel and bold.

“Before I became famous, I was just an ordinary person. With this face, not only did it not bring me any benefits, it actually brought me lots of danger.”Lu Si chuckled.

She sighed unintentionally and continued, “I came there by chance to empty my mind. My family told me to give up painting, or else they would expel me from the house and not allow me to come back.”

“This was the last painting of that period, and it was also my turning point.”

Lu Si’s story was half-true and half-false. This was the story of the artist, not Lu Si’s.

However, she had said this too many times. Now that she said it, it was as if she was talking about herself.

Xu Yi did not expect her painting experience to be so difficult.

“Then you are also very strong. To be able to walk out of such an environment, let me congratulate you.”

Xu Yi sincerely wished her well. He picked up his glass and clinked it with hers.

Lu Si thought that she would succeed.

She just did not expect that she would have such a good conversation with Xu Yi.

A person like Xu Yi would spend so much time with her!

It was rare for Lu Si to be so excited. She lost control of her alcohol tolerance. Even though she was only slightly tipsy, she still looked at Xu Yi with her drunken eyes.

“Has anyone ever told you that you’re very charming? You’re someone who can easily make people unable to separate themselves from you once they get intoxicated.”

Xu Yi looked up at her.

The emotions in his eyes were hard to fathom. Even Xu Yi did not understand what he thought of Lu Si.

However, the respect that had always existed in his heart was certain.

“It’s very late. I’ll send you back to rest.”

Xu Yi stood up, reached out his hand to her, and pulled her up. When she stood up and was about to let go.

Lu Si fell down and collapsed into Xu Yi’s arms.

However, before Xu Yi could react.

Lu Si quivered and looked at him with clear eyes. “I’m sorry. I felt a bit dizzy just now.”

“It’s okay.”

Seeing that she had completely stabilized herself, Xu Yi did not say anything more.

Lin Lin drove Lu si directly to the hotel.

Xu Yi was worried, so he got out of the car and walked Lu Si to the door of the room. He watched her enter before he was ready to leave.

He was about to instruct her to lock the door.

However, the person who had just entered turned around and rushed into his arms. Lu Si hugged his waist with both hands.

She stood on her tiptoes, raised her head, and quickly dropped a dragonfly on Xu Yi’s mouth.

Her eyes were filled with lust.

However, after she kissed him, she immediately turned around and entered the house, closing the door.

Xu Yi stood at the door and paused. A complicated look flashed across his eyes.

He was actually somewhat resistant to Lu Si’s brazen approach, but he had always respected her.

This caused Xu Yi to hesitate, which led to the current situation.

Xu Yi rubbed his temples and turned to leave. Along the way, Xu Yi’s expression was grave.

He did not feel any joy from obtaining the painting.
