Chapter 1416 Isn’t He Interested in You?
Zhao Wanqin raised her head and glanced at Ye Linlang, and then slowly moved her eyes to Shangguan Luo.
She pointed at the new watercolor painting and shook her head at the handsome mixed-race young man.
"I'm sorry, I am planning to use this painting to participate in the International Cloud-themed Art Exhibition in a few days. If you are interested, you can participate in the bidding in a few days."
Shangguan Luo nodded understandingly.
"Okay, I understand. Now, this elegant lady, can we leave your contact information?"
Only now did Ye Linlang realize how sweet the people in Dongchen Kingdom were.
Especially when Shangguan Luo looked at Mrs. Zhao with a smile like this, calling her an "elegant lady", the contrast was particularly clear.
As expected, Grandma Zhao was very happy.
"Okay, okay, young man, you are so good at talking."
"Where, you are indeed elegant."
Shangguan Luo smiled and nodded, his elegant demeanor almost making old lady Zhao Wanqin smile.
With a few words from the other party, Zhao Wanqin was immediately coaxed into submission.
She left her phone number on the mobile phone handed over by the other party.
After Shangguan Luo got the contact number of Grandma Zhao Wanqin, he calmly bowed slightly to Ye Linlang and Zhao Wanqin.
"Thank you then. See you next time."
…
Ye Linlang looked at Shangguan Luo's leaving figure with a hint of doubt in his expression.
"Grandma Zhao, why do I feel that the surname Shangguan is rare in China?"
Zhao Wanqin smiled calmly.
"It's a compound surname. It's strange that it's rare. If you look it up, you should be able to find out what his family does."
When Zhao Wanqin said this, she looked at Ye Linlang with interest as if she was just waking up from a dream.
"What, are you interested in that young man just now? Others say that the best way to forget your last relationship is to start the next one. What, are you interested in trying it with him?"
Ye Linlang was speechless when she heard Mrs. Zhao's joke.
She shook her head and lowered her head to pack the half-packed painting box.
"I don't mean that. Haven't you ever heard that 'everything in the sea was difficult to make water, but except for Wushan, it is not clouds'? Once the right person appears, it will be unforgettable. I think it will be difficult for me to start a new relationship."
Mrs. Zhao suddenly looked uneasy after hearing Ye Linlang's old-fashioned tone.
She reached out and poked Ye Linlang's temple.
"Little girls, what else do you know about 'It was once difficult to make a difference in the sea'? You just have seen too little of the world. Why are you so young and pretending to be profound? Don't give up the entire forest for a crooked-necked tree!"
As soon as Mrs. Zhao's metaphor hit her ears, Ye Linlang immediately burst into laughter!
God, this was definitely the first time in her life that she heard someone compare Jiang Qiran to a tree with a crooked neck!
If Jiang Qiran is a crooked-necked tree, then there must be many crazy men and resentful women who want to hang from this crooked-necked tree.
…
Mrs. Zhao was even more unconvinced when she saw that Ye Linlang was still smiling.
"Why are you laughing! I am serious, I see, that young man just stared at you for so long, he is interested in you."
Ye Linlang felt goosebumps all over her body. She shrugged and pointed to Mrs. Zhao's hand that had just pressed the contact information in a funny way.
"You are just thinking too much. The man named Shangguan Luo just wanted to buy paintings. If it's interesting, he just asked for your contact information."
"..."
Old Mrs. Zhao was speechless after being blocked by Ye Linlang.
She patted Ye Linlang's shoulder and finally thought of a word to comfort Ye Linlang.
"Well, if you don't like that foreign guy just now, you still have your Grandma Zhao protecting you. I know a lot of handsome guys!"
As if to prove that she was not lying, Mrs. Zhao immediately gave an example.
"For example, my useless grandson, although he is not good at studying and usually does not do his job, he has a good skin. There should not be too many little girls who like him!"
At the end of the story, Mrs. Zhao Wanqin became proud.
And Ye Linlang only felt that there were more and more goosebumps on her body.
"Okay, okay, grandma, don't worry about me. I'm here to study, not to fall in love."
Grandma Zhao thought about it. She originally wanted to set up a red line between Ye Linlang and her grandson, but she gave up thinking that they were in a foreign country.
But Ye Linlang suddenly remembered something else.
"Grandma Zhao, didn't you say that you are a visiting professor at T University in Dongchen State, and invited by T University, you will hold a painting training class in Dongchen State every year?"
"There is no restriction on age and education, right? Can I sign up?"
Here in Dongchen Kingdom, with no friends, Ye Linlang really didn't know what else she could do except study harder.
It is better to develop one more hobby.
"Okay, come on! If you do, the tuition will be waived!"
Ye Linlang smiled.
"That's so embarrassing. You can't lack what you deserve."
Old Mrs. Zhao Wanqin patted Ye Linlang on the shoulder.
"It doesn't matter. You called me grandma. Grandma, I don't lack the money either."
"If you come, I will tell them that you are my assistant. You usually help me organize things, and I can also give you a little salary subsidy."
"The capital of Dongchen Kingdom is not very peaceful now. You are a girl. If you want to work illegally outside, you might as well become my assistant. It will save you trouble and make more money."
Ye Linlang was startled when he heard this.
The eye sockets were a little red for no reason.
She didn't expect that grandma Zhao Wanqin would still want to help her make money.
Last time on the plane, Ye Linlang accidentally mentioned that she wanted to work a temporary job in Dongchen Country during her spare time.
Unexpectedly, Grandma Zhao actually remembered these words in her heart.
…
Grandma Zhao saw Ye Linlang's grateful embarrassment and reached out to stroke her head.
"It doesn't matter, why are you crying? Who doesn't have difficulties? Being alone abroad is always difficult. I don't have a granddaughter. My old lady likes you, little girl. I can help you."
"Then...thank you, really thank you..."
Ye Linlang's hands trembled slightly, her eyes ached, and she almost burst into tears.
I don't know if I am moved or aggrieved.
Because this kindness came from a stranger whom I only knew for a few days, compared to my own family, which was too ruthless.
Probably, God couldn't bear to see her miserable.
…
A few days later, Zhao Wanqin participated in the art exhibition with the painting she painted for Ye Linlang, and gave it a beautiful name, called "The Girl on the Other Side of the Cloud", which was very romantic.
What surprised Zhao Wanqin was that the mixed-race young man named Shangguan Luo actually participated in the bidding!
