Chapter 81: Liars Are Puppies
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Got it.” Jin Nian replied casually, not taking Lu An’s words seriously. She knew very well that with her abilities, she would never be able to live in such a luxurious mansion. However, when Lu An led her to the cloakroom and saw the brand-new women clothes that had been prepared long ago. They were all her size and styles that she liked, it suddenly felt unreal.
Jin Nian thought that she was shopping in a luxury store. There was a wide variety of goods here, and even the accessories were dazzling.
She was truly amazed by what she was seeing. Jin Nian felt like she was the female protagonist who had accidentally entered the domineering CEO’s house. Her eyes lit up and she did not hide her fondness, “These are all prepared for me?”
Lu An’s attitude was lazy, and the corners of his mouth curled up, “If you’re not satisfied, I’ll arrange for someone to prepare again.”
Jin Nian’s face was filled with disbelief, “Lu An, you’re such an overbearing CEO.”
Lu An laughed. He walked forward and picked up a set of pajamas. Then, he held Jin Nian’s hand and walked towards the bedroom, “Alright, let’s go to sleep. There will be plenty of time to appreciate it in the future.”
Jin Nian was still nervous. She rolled her eyes and said, “I haven’t seen the paintings on the fourth floor yet!” Lu An was not in a hurry. He brought Jin Nian up like he was taking care of a child.
After entering the studio, Jin Nian saw many paintings that were casually piled up in the corner by their owner. She squatted down and looked at them carefully, as if she was escaping. Some of the paintings were not even opened. Jin Nian opened them carefully after asking Lu An. Every time she opened a painting, it was like opening a blind box. She became more and more excited. “Lu An, where did you get so many paintings?”Jin Nian blinked and asked him.
Lu An squatted beside her and looked at her calmly, “What do you mean where did I get it from? 1 drew them.”
“Liars are puppies. I don’t believe it.”
“What’s there to lie about?”
Jin Nian subconsciously looked at Lu An when she heard this. Seeing that he was calm and composed, it was obvious that he was not lying: “1 remember that you did not like painting at all in the past.” In the past, when the teacher asked him to paint, Lu An was like an ant on a hot pan, fidgeting.
Lu An said: “1 was bored overseas, so 1 just painted to pass the time.”
“Just painted?” Who could paint at such a standard? Jin Nian carefully looked at the paintings that were randomly piled on the ground. They were of all kinds of styles, and they were bold and unrestrained. The more she looked at it, the faster her heart beat. It was really too good. It was more beautiful than any work she had seen before.
Lu An did not know how to explain it. He could not possibly tell Jin Nian that every time he thought of her, he would paint, right? He sounded like a pervert.
However, it was indeed so. Every time his heart was in a mess, he would always find something to divert his attention. Smoking and drinking had lost their effect on him, but painting could calm him down. Therefore, he started to paint, all night and everyday. He had so many paintings from the last six years. When he returned to the country this time, he handed over the matter of packaging to the moving company. He had forgotten about the paintings piled up in the storage room, but the moving company carefully packed them up and sent them back to the country.
That was why Jin Nian saw this scene. The paintings were all piled up in the studio on the fourth floor. He did not care, but she treated them like a treasure. Lu An wanted to ask Jin Nian to turn around and take a look at him. He was a living person standing right in front of her. Could she stop staring at those boring paintings?
“I’ll throw them out tomorrow.”
Jin Nian could not figure out what was wrong with Lu An again. She reached out to pull Lu An’s hand and shook it, “You’re a little mad dog aren’t you. You get angry so easily.”
Lu An was angry with himself, so he simply picked Jin Nian up and walked downstairs.
Having experienced this before, Jin Nian did not struggle anymore. She was like a fish waiting to be slaughtered. She buried her face in Lu An’s neck and said in a trembling voice: “Lu An, I’m still a little nervous.”
Lu An chuckled, “What are you afraid of?”
Jin Nian did not know what to say. How was she going to explain the fact that she was a complete novice in this aspect? Lu An would definitely laugh at her, right?
The temperature at night suddenly dropped, and the two of them were the only ones in the huge villa, making it seem even more empty and cold. Lu An had prepared all the daily necessities that she might need, so she could not find an excuse to go home. Lu An went to the bedroom next door to take a shower, leaving the bathroom in the master bedroom for her.
Jin Nian walked into the bathroom with her pajamas and phone. She was not in a hurry to take a shower. Instead, she sent Qiao Ranran a WeChat message to ask if she was asleep.
Qiao Ranran: “Sleeping for what? In the lonely night by myself, where shall 1 put my heart at-!”
Jin Nian: “Why are you alone again? Where’s that bank guy?”
