Chapter 378 Dou Xiangling Was Taken Away

Dining area.

Just like what Dou Xiangling said before, Earl Aleister soon sent someone over to invite Ziyi over.

When Zi Yi was brought before Earl Aleister and the others, the president of the International Painting and Calligraphy Association was saying, "Miss Zi is a member of the Imperial Painting and Calligraphy Association, and we only found out yesterday."

Hearing this, a group of people expressed surprise.

At this moment, when Earl Alester saw Zi Yi approaching, he smiled kindly and asked, "Miss Zi, I wonder if this dinner tonight satisfied you?"

Zi Yi nodded: "The meal at the Earl's house is delicious."

Hearing this, a group of middle-aged people smiled knowingly.

Earl Alester said: "It seems that Miss Zi is a cheerful person... You girls usually don't like to eat at dinner parties. The host prepares food for everyone to eat. If it is displayed in front of the host, the host will feel that it is carefully prepared. No one likes the food."

Ziyi nodded in agreement.

Everyone was discussing this matter, and the people who were deliberately eavesdropping around them heard this, and their hearts were inexplicably a little sour. When did Earl Aleister care about such details, it was obvious that Ziyi was not embarrassed. Yes!

In particular, the group of noble ladies who had been waiting to see Zi Yi's jokes left the neighborhood even more angry and helpless.

After everyone discussed it for a while, Earl Aleister said the purpose of inviting Zi Yi to come here, "Miss Zi should have heard other people say about me, I have a particularly fanatical love for calligraphy and painting, and I want to invite him to stay when I see a great painter. A painting... I have an unkind request, I hope Miss Zi can paint a painting for me before leaving Country X?"

Earl Aleister is very polite, making it impossible for people to refuse, but Zi Yi did not intend to refuse, she said, "Okay, I can paint a picture for Earl Aleister tomorrow without the game being over."

"That's really good." Earl Aleister was very excited, raised his hand to let the servant bring wine, and after Zi Yi took a glass of wine, he raised a glass to her: "Miss Zi, your painting today is really good. It's too shocking, I don't know what name Miss Zi named that painting?"

Zi Yi thought about it for a while, and said, "It can be called "Crossing the Darkness," or "Looking for the Dawn."

"Not bad, these two names are very suitable for the artistic conception of your painting."

Everyone praised Zi Yi.

On the other side, Dou Xiangling, who hadn't come over, kept looking at Zi Yi, and the corners of her mouth rose involuntarily when she saw that she was chatting happily with a group of people.

Her cousin is the best wherever she goes.

At this time, a woman asked Dou Xiangling: "Dou, are you and Zi really sisters?"

"Yes, she is my aunt's child."

"It's good, Dou is already very good, and having such a good cousin is really enviable."

Several other women also expressed their envy.

At this moment, a male voice interjected: "Everyone, can I talk to Miss Dou alone?"

Everyone subconsciously turned to look at the man walking towards them.

The slim white suit outlines the lean waist, and the neutral appearance and the aggressive eyes instantly make a group of foreign women fall.

"What a beautiful man."

When Meng He heard the word 'beauty', he clenched his hand beside him, trying hard not to turn his face.

He looked at Dou Xiangling, "Dou Xiangling, I want to make it clear to you before our game ends."

Dou Xiangling frowned subconsciously.

The corner of Meng He's mouth twitched, and when he attracted another woman, he said, "Don't worry, I just want to tell you why I always like to compete with you for the first place, and I won't do anything to you. ."

Hearing this, Dou Xiangling's brows were still frowning, but she was indeed a little curious about why Meng He kept arguing with her. After thinking about it for two seconds, she said to the women around her, "Let's talk first."

Then he stood up and walked to the side with Meng He.

Meng He said as he walked, "It's too noisy here, let's talk outside the living room."

Dou Xiangling stopped.

Meng He seemed to have guessed what she was thinking, and said, "Don't worry, I just asked the earl's family. Their backyard is a garden, and guests can go there to breathe... Or, you are worried. I took you out, what will I do to you?"

Dou Xiangling looked at him with those peaceful eyes, pursed her lips slightly, and nodded.

The two continued to walk outside.

When walking to the door, a servant also asked: "Two guests, I don't know what you need?"

Meng He stopped and said to him, "We want to go to the earl's backyard to get some air."

The servant nodded and led the two towards the backyard.

Dou Xiangling breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, feeling that he was thinking too much.

The two soon came to the backyard of the Earl's house under the guidance of the servant.

The backyard is a garden with a fountain in the middle of the garden.

The garden is shrouded in darkness and street lights, with a hazy beauty.

Meng He wanted to take Dou Xiangling to continue walking into the garden, but Dou Xiangling stopped and said, "It's already very quiet here. If you have anything to say, just say it here."

Meng He stopped, turned his head to look at her, as if caught in a memory, and said, "The first time I saw your name was on the scholarship list for the first semester of Imperial University, I always thought I would get First-class scholarship, I didn't expect you to surpass me by one point.

At that time, I was a little unwilling, so I specifically asked about you, only to find out that we are from the same department, and we also took the same course in the second semester.

Afterwards, every time we competed or took an exam, we were only a little bit apart. You made me pay more and more attention, and at the same time, I wanted to keep you under pressure. "

When Dou Xiangling watched Meng He say these words, the smile on the corner of his mouth made him feel a little panic inexplicably.

This man doesn't look normal.

Meng He looked at her, with an evil fire in his eyes, "You know what? In order to push you down every time, I worked so hard in the next few years, especially when you surpassed me from time to time, which made me very uncomfortable. ."

Dou Xiangling frowned even tighter, feeling that Meng He was sick.

Meng He smiled at this time, with an indescribable sternness in his smile, "I went abroad for some reasons. In the past few years, your affairs have been passed on to my ears, the Dou family. Miss's ability is really great, we need to strive for many years of achievements, but you can easily get it."

"I got these all by myself, I didn't rely on the Dou family."

"No way? Don't you know that as long as your name appears in the painting and calligraphy world, everyone is willing to give you the green light, because your surname is Dou."

When Meng He said this, he suddenly approached Dou Xiangling.
