Chapter 272: Chapter 272 Two Souls
Mo Jun was surprised, honestly nodding her head, “It is indeed a great honor…”
But don’t you think your choice is a bit hasty?
“So you should promptly accept, and not miss this great opportunity,” Ouyang Hua said confidently, believing she would definitely agree this time.
Mo Jun declined very tactfully, “Professor, aren’t there many beautiful girls here? I’ve heard that one of the girls is quite pretty…”
“Are you talking about Jiang Kerou?” Ouyang Hua immediately understood who she was referring to, “She is indeed very pretty, and I also plan to choose her if I can’t find a model. But her eyes don’t work.”
“Why?” Mo Jun was surprised.
“She’s a bit inscrutable, and too pretentious, her inner self is too showy, with nothing pure at all. But you… you are different.”
Ouyang Hua stared at her excitedly, his eyes full of the amazement of finding a treasure.
“The moment I saw you, I knew you were a person with a story!”
“In your being live two people, one a pure child, the other an old soul marked by life’s trials. But no matter which, you are a very clean person. You have a story, yet you’re not worldly. You are well acquainted with the darkness of this world, yet your nature is not dark. You yearn for this world yet have seen through the variegated human conditions. In short, you are too contradictory, so much so that inside your body…”
Staring deeply at her, Ouyang Hua blurted out excitedly under Mo Jun’s stiff expression, “It’s as if, inside your body, dwell two souls! Tell me, am I right?”
“So it’s you. You are definitely the best model, it would be such a shame not to capture you on canvas. I’ll find someone to do your makeup right now…”
“Professor, I’m sorry, I really can’t be your model. I’m here to study pharmacy, and I need to concentrate on my studies, so I don’t have time to be your model. I’m really sorry, and I hope you can forgive me,” Mo Jun suddenly refused him very seriously.
Ouyang Hua was slightly stunned; it seemed that he finally realized that she truly didn’t want to be his model.
“I can offer you a large payment!” he suddenly proposed.
Mo Jun smiled and shook her head, “It’s not about the money, I really don’t have the time, and I don’t want to… be a model.”
“Because I have other important things to do, professor, I’m really sorry! I have something else to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now.” Having said that, Mo Jun turned and left.
Ouyang Hua hastily said to her, “I’ll give you a few days to think about it, you can come over anytime once you’ve made up your mind…”
Mo Jun did not respond; she wouldn’t agree.
It was not just because she lacked the time; it was also because she was a bit afraid to face him.
Professor Ouyang was too frightening, having seen through to her heart.
Mo Jun always felt very nervous and utterly exposed in his presence.
This feeling made her very insecure…
Mo Jun walked outside in one breath, finally relaxing only after breathing in the fresh air outside.
Xiaozhou followed her and said with regret, “Miss Luo, why didn’t you agree? Actually, this is a really good opportunity. Almost everyone selected by Professor Ouyang as a model becomes widely acclaimed, their fame lasting for centuries. Just like Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa…”
“But I don’t want to be Mona Lisa,” Mo Jun interrupted him with a smile.
“The biggest dream of my life isn’t to be remembered for centuries, but to master a skill. Do you know why I want to master a skill?”
