Longwan Residential.

Gu Zheng looked at the message on his phone. Han Yin had clarified that she had nothing to do with Han Ye. Although he knew that Qiao Xi had said it on purpose for Lu Yan to learn about it, she clearly thought so too.

At the International Oil Painting Exhibition three days later.

The art exhibition would last for a total of three days. Famous artists from all over the world were invited to the exhibition. Everyone had to bring their own works to the exhibition. Qi Zhong and his master, Cui Xian, went to the exhibition together.

Cui Xian was already in his 80s and had white hair. He asked Qi Zhong indifferently, “I heard that you took in two very talented apprentices?”

Qi Zhong immediately waved his hand to signal Tang Ruge to come forward. “This is my apprentice, Tang Ruge. She’s the daughter of the porcelain family, the Tang family. She’s extremely talented.”

Cui Xian sized up Tang Ruge and nodded in satisfaction. He had also heard of this Miss Tang before. He heard that she was very smart and was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting since the age of six. However, he had never heard that she knew how to paint.

“What about the other one?”

When Qi Zhong thought of Qiao Xi, his expression instantly darkened. “Forget it! It’s her honor that I was willing to take her as my apprentice, but she was unwilling. Since that’s the case, I don’t have to force her!”

Tang Ruge smiled imperceptibly. Qiao Xi was talented, but she was too arrogant. If she offended Qi Zhong, it would be very difficult for her to establish herself in the oil painting world in the future.

It would be fine if Qiao Xi did not appear in today’s art exhibition, but if Qiao Xi dared to appear, she would definitely make Qiao Xi pay the price!

Tang Ruge curled her lips into a proud smile. Now that she was Mr. Qi Zhong’s apprentice, what right did Qiao Xi have to fight her?

…

Qiao Xi had woken up early to freshen up. For this occasion, Qiao Xi had specially put on makeup that made her look delicate. Her lips were light pink, and her eye makeup was very simple. She looked like an obedient girl.

“Gu Zheng! Do you think I’m beautiful?” Qiao Xi was wearing a pink knee-length dress and spun in front of him like a little girl.

Gu Zheng stroked his chin and sized her up. “How old are you?”

Qiao Xi pouted and said coquettishly, “You’re so annoying. You even forgot my age!”

The man curled his lips, revealing his neat and white teeth. His eyes were filled with affection. “Of course, I know your age. It’s just that those who don’t know might think that Mrs. Gu is only 16 years old this year.”

Qiao Xi smiled proudly. “Of course, I’m very young to begin with!”

She looked at herself in the full-length mirror and felt that this pink dress did not seem appropriate, so she returned to the bedroom to change.

Ten minutes later, Qiao Xi was wearing a pair of light yellow overalls and had her hair tied into a ponytail. It was not an exaggeration to say that really looked like she was 16 years old.

Gu Zheng smiled helplessly. “Mrs. Gu, when did you have such a hobby?”

Qiao Xi chuckled. “It’s natural that you don’t understand, but old people like children who are especially obedient, quiet, and weak.”

The corners of Gu Zheng’s mouth twitched slightly. ‘Obedient and quiet? Are these words suitable to describe you?’

Qiao Xi asked excitedly, “Should I change it to a more festive color? The elderly will definitely like it! Or should I wear a dress?”

“Han Ye will like whatever you wear,” Gu Zheng said gently.

Qiao Xi nodded thoughtfully. Gu Zheng had seen Han Ye before and definitely knew what he liked, but she still asked with a slight uneasiness, “Will Han Ye like me?”

Gu Zheng nodded and pinched her soft cheek. “He will.”

Who would not like such a cute Mrs. Gu?

At ten o’clock, the two of them appeared at the art exhibition together. Qiao Xi said slightly unnaturally, “Ah Zheng, I… I want to go to the bathroom. Wait for me here.”

Gu Zheng’s expression did not change. She was always so guilty when she lied in front of him. Seeing her lower her head while looking uneasy, the man said casually, “Alright.”

Qiao Xi instantly heaved a sigh of relief. “Wait for me. I’ll be back soon!”

With that, she left in a hurry.

Song Shiyu pointed in the opposite direction. “President, it seems that Young Madam went to the wrong place. The bathroom is over there!”

Gu Zheng smiled meaningfully. “She’s not wrong. That’s where she’s going.”

As an artist participating in the exhibition, Qiao Xi also provided two paintings. One was her previous work, while the other was completed a few days ago. They had already been moved to the exhibition area, but every participant still had to sign their names with the person in charge.

She hurriedly signed her name and glanced at the names in front. They were all famous international artists. Suddenly, she saw two familiar names.

Qi Zhong and Tang Ruge.
