Chapter 703 Greetings from head to toe
"The price is too low, and it insults your talent. How about this? You donate a painting to the academy, no matter the size!"
After Dean Bai finished speaking, he felt contemptuous of himself in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.
He is not doing this for himself, but for the students.
He really is risking his old face.
The teachers behind Dean Bai were all embarrassed!
I just wanted to ask the dean to paint a picture for me. How could you be so shameless in asking for it?
But when I think about it, it seems that what the dean said makes sense!
Shen Xia was stunned!
It's really refreshing to see someone asking for a painting so shamelessly.
Seeing that Ling Heng didn't agree to lend her the painting, and seeing how awkward it was for them, she had planned to paint another one when she had time, but Ling Heng was like someone who didn't want to be approached by strangers.
It's normal that you don't want to lend out your own portrait painting.
Besides, the quality of this paper is not very good.
Because oil painting has special oil painting paper, which is much better in terms of ductility and thickness.
This paper is just ordinary rice paper, suitable only for ink painting!
I'll show it to you all then.
Look at this, look at that, and then touch them, but I'm afraid it won't last long.
But I didn't expect that he could reject the dean so directly.
Have a personality.
So Shen Xia also planned to paint another one when he had time, just to cultivate his sentiments.
result........
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Shen Xia coughed lightly and said, "That's fine too. It's my honor that the dean can put Anping's paintings in the academy for students to appreciate. How can I charge the academy for it? The dean, please choose a thick paper for me, and I will draw a landscape painting according to the size of your paper."
When everyone heard this, Shen Xia agreed.
I also felt relieved.
Dean Bai stepped forward and took a look at Ling Heng. He was originally angry with this boy, but now it seems that he can get a painting alone to display in the academy.
Ah!
I won't bother with this kid.
Dean Bai smiled and said, "Well, thank you very much, Anping."
After saying this, he took away everyone behind him.
Shen Xia stared quietly at the quiet courtyard in front of her, her eyes slowly sweeping across every corner.
At this time, the sun was setting and a faint red glow appeared on the horizon.
"It's really getting late, and I should go back." Shen Xia nodded slightly at Ling Heng and said.
Hearing this, Ling Heng also looked up at the sky, and then agreed, "Yes, it's past dinner time without me noticing. I'm so sorry that the princess missed dinner time because of me. I don't know if the princess's invitation to dinner is still valid."
Shen Xia: “….”
Are you a miser?
I couldn't believe these words came out of this man's mouth.
I worked hard to paint for him for an entire afternoon, shouldn't he treat me to a meal?
He actually asked me to treat him.
Shen Xia greeted Ling Heng from head to toe again in her heart.
I just don’t know if his ears will turn red.
But looking at his thick-skinned appearance, I don’t think so!
Ling Heng knew that if he asked Shen Xia to have a meal, she might not agree, but she had said before that she would treat him to a meal, and with this as an excuse, she could not refuse.
Shen Xia looked at Ling Heng, who was waiting for her to treat him.
I could only nod and say, "Well, I always keep my word. Today's time is just right."
Seeing Shen Xia agreed, Ling Heng's face immediately broke into a bright smile, as warm as the spring sun.
"Okay! Let's go now!" As he said that, he made a gesture of invitation, indicating that Shen Xia should go first.
Ling Heng asked Luo Ye to put the painting away, and then went out with Shen Xia.
Shen Xia's eyes fell on the beautifully decorated carriage at the door, and he couldn't help feeling a little hesitant.
After all, she was still not used to sharing a car with others.
Just when she was about to ask Ling Heng if he also had a carriage, she heard him say first: "I don't have a carriage, I'm afraid I can only bother you, Princess, and take your carriage to go together."
Shen Xia nodded slightly to show her agreement: "Okay!"
Then she took a deep breath. The man said there was no carriage. What could she do? Should she let him walk? She was not shameless enough to do that.
After the two got on the bus, the atmosphere in the car seemed a little awkward and silent.
After a while, Ling Heng was the first to break the silence and asked softly, "Does the princess have any favorite food?"
Shen Xia answered without hesitation: "I am not picky about food. I can accept all kinds of food. Just choose what you want to eat."
In fact, Shen Xia is not too picky about food. As long as the taste is good, she is willing to try it.
But if she encountered extremely delicious food, she would naturally not be able to resist eating a few more bites;
As for foods that don’t taste good, you can eat them if you can, and forget about them if you can’t.
Although she says she's not picky, she's actually very picky about food!
Seeing Shen Xia being so easy-going, Ling Heng's attitude also became more relaxed.
He gently lifted the curtain of the carriage and told the servant following outside a location.
Shen Xia felt that it was an unfamiliar place, as if she had never heard of it. However, Feng Qi and Feng Yu were there, so she didn't care and thought that she could go anywhere.
It didn't take long before we arrived at our destination.
Shen Xia is not very familiar with this street.
Ling Heng was the first to get off the carriage. He turned around, stretched out his hand, and wanted to help Shen Xia get off.
However, Shen Xia shook her head gently, indicating that she could get off the car alone.
So she followed Ling Heng's steps and got off the carriage carefully.
But at this moment, Shen Xia was attracted by the unfamiliar environment around him, his eyes wandered around, and he completely forgot to pay attention to the situation under his feet.
Suddenly, a scream was heard: "Ah..." It turned out that Shen Xia stepped on empty air and lost his balance instantly.
Hearing this terrified cry, Ling Heng's heart tightened. He turned around quickly, stretched out his long arms, and quickly supported the staggering Shen Xia.
Because the incident happened suddenly, Shen Xia's fall scared Jixiang who was waiting below.
Originally, Ruyi had been ordered by Shen Xia to go home first to inform her family that she would be back late.
At this moment, apart from Feng Qi and Feng Yu who were a little further away, only Ling Heng who was nearby could provide timely assistance.
Shen Xia fell in a rather awkward manner, and fell straight forward.
Coincidentally, she happened to fall into Ling Heng's broad and warm arms.
This sudden close contact made both of them stunned.
But these were nothing, something even more embarrassing happened - due to inertia, Shen Xia actually ripped open Ling Heng's collar in a panic.
It was the height of summer, the weather was extremely hot, and Ling Heng was already wearing thin clothes.
Now, as the collar was torn open, a large area of white and strong chest was exposed to Shen Xia without reservation.
