Without thinking too much, she sighed with an expression of "I'm convinced" and said, "You...really have some ideas."
Wu An: "Thanks for the compliment."
"Okay, I won't bother you anymore." Tang Xiyue curled her lips, returned to her indifferent look, and handed a square takeaway box in her hand to Wu An.
She said, "Try this. It's a Southeast Asian millet cake. I told you yesterday that I bought it especially for you."
Wu An quickly caught up: "...Oh."
If Tang Xiyue hadn't mentioned that there was food, Wu An would have forgotten about it.
"Thank you!" he said.
Chen Anna pouted secretly when she saw Tang Xiyue taking out food and giving it to Wu An.
I didn't expect that woman to bring a gift. How despicable!
However, she had just heard that Wu An was planning to take the art exam. Then it would be perfectly legitimate for her to practice painting with her little brother in the future!
In the future, I will have more time to guide my little brother.
Thinking of this, Chen Anna looked at Tang Xiyue unwillingly.
Tang Xiyue met her eyes, and although they were indifferent, she seemed to accept the challenge.
After handing the things to Wu An, there was no need for Tang Xiyue to stay here.
"Come on, I'll go down first." She said goodbye to Wu An and went downstairs.
"it is good!"
……
After watching Tang Xiyue go downstairs, Wu An quickly entered a state of concentration on painting.
Chen Anna also found some drawing paper and painted the same picture with Wu An.
It's called: practicing together.
Wu An felt that it was just right. With Chen Anna as a benchmark, Wu An could clearly see the gap between himself and the masters.
The two finished their practice oil painting when the studio was about to close.
The colors of Wu An’s watercolor paintings are still a bit strange - they feel too saturated, but... they look better than before.
Chen Anna's painting is a beautiful oil painting.
The colors are balanced, not too bright, nor too dull.
It's like a work of art by a master.
In comparison, Wu An's works look like drawings by elementary school students.
However, with the reference and comparison, Wu An seemed to suddenly understand his own shortcomings.
"So, this is how the problem was solved here." He compared the two paintings, his eyes sparkling.
Seeing that her paintings were helpful to Wu An, Chen Anna giggled happily.
Then, she picked up her palette and showed it to Wu An, looking for praise:
"This is my color palette, you can take a look at it!"
Wu An: “Yeah, yeah!”
#57 Don’t even look at me!

#58 She is tempting me
If I don’t go to hell, who will?
If she doesn't become possessed by a demon, who will help Li Yuhua with the exam?
In the past, I could only learn art out of interest, but now I’m working hard for the art entrance exam. I don’t have to be so restrained and can indulge myself openly. I’m full of motivation.
"Anyway, don't worry about me. I have to reach at least 90% of your art level before the school exam begins."
Wu An said with a solemn vow.
Li Yuhua's eyes were complicated: "Actually, you don't have to work so hard."
"As long as you pass the art subject admission score set by the school, you can compete for the rest by improving your scores in cultural subjects."
"If you have time, you might as well teach me some physics, chemistry and biology." Li Yuhua pouted, but because she was wearing a facial mask, her real expression could not be seen.
"Actually... it's not impossible." Wu An was stunned, but after looking at the half-painted watercolor on the canvas, he thought: "At least reach the level of the joint entrance examination first."
Li Yuhua: "Then come on."
"Roar!"
……
Later, Wu An went home. On the way home, the urge to practice painting kept surging in his mind.
Then I felt regretful: Why didn’t I continue to finish the painting at Li Yuhua’s house?
Even if she paints until the early morning, I won't disturb her. She will just go home after she finishes.
But I was already on my way home, there was no point in regretting.
Go home quickly, take a shower and go to bed, so that time will pass faster. When you wake up, you will become Li Yuhua, and maybe you will not have the urge to practice painting anymore.
However...things were not as simple as Wu An thought.
The next day, Wu An became Li Yuhua.
After waking up, everything was normal.
But when Wu An finished washing up, changed into the school uniform that Li Yuhua had prepared for him last night and was about to go out, he saw the painting supplies that had been placed on the balcony last night.
Swallowed.
The wooden tripod is like a naked girl, lying on the balcony railing.
The unfinished painting on the drawing board on the shelf is her pitiful and charming smile.
She was a charming enchantress who aroused Wu An's desires.
I wanted to pounce on her and paint her all over, like I was helping her put on clothes, covering her body.
So much so that Li Yuhua, who was bending over and picking up her shoes in the mirror at the entrance, didn't look so attractive at all.
Wu An: “…”
Wu An: “Damn it!”
Wu An: "This damn temptation!"
Wu An took a deep breath and looked at the time. There was about an hour left before the first class in the morning.
Li Yuhua had the right to skip morning self-study and morning exercises before, so why not use this right today?
Thinking of this, Wu An took off the shoes he had just put on, changed into slippers, walked to the drawing board and sat down.
Looking at the half-finished watercolor painting I finished last night, I suddenly felt inexplicably at ease.
It’s decided.
Wu An took out his cell phone and sent a message to Li Yuhua:
"Miss, please tell your homeroom teacher that I'll be there during the first period."
After a while, I received a reply from Li Yuhua:
「[Shark makes a puzzled expression]」
"Are you going to finish the painting you did last night?"
Wu An admitted: "Yeah"
Li Yuhua: "[Shark's concerned expression]"
Li Yuhua: "Then...be careful, don't go crazy."
It seemed that Li Yuhua agreed, so she quickly replied with an "OK" expression, picked up the palette she used last night, dipped it in water to wet the paint, and continued painting as she had done last night.
……
After about fifty minutes, the watercolor painting was ninety percent complete.
There are still many color details that need to be added, but Wu An's level is not at that level yet.
Wu An’s main goal recently is to make the colors of the picture uniform and not look abrupt.
I feel like I've made some progress today, and things seem to be pleasing to the eye.
Looking at the painting in front of me, I felt a sense of comfort for no reason.
Liberate the desires in your heart.
You will enter the sage mode where you feel a sense of accomplishment and have no desires.
Then, I could finally go to class.
I arrived at the classroom almost on time for the first class. Today I took two science papers to consolidate my level, and then I worked on the English paper.
School ends at noon.
Li Yuhua's four great warriors came to Wu An again and wanted to have a meal with him and then talk about some pleasant things in their class.
Wu An didn't mind chatting with them.
Then, he would bring the topic to his area of expertise - such as complaining about some strange settings in English grammar.
The boys did not refuse to discuss these study matters. They felt they benefited a lot from chatting with Li Yuhua about the small details in study.
At this moment, a boy suddenly stood in front of them, holding an envelope in both hands, blushing, and walked to Wu An, tremblingly handed him a letter, and said:
"Li, Senior Sister Li Yuhua, my name is Qin Liwen, I, I like you, here, here is what I want to say to you, if, if you don't bother me, please, please accept my feelings!"
Then he bowed deeply, blushing as he waited for a reply.
