His ears were red, but Rong Zheng's eyes were full of joy.

"Really, do you like it?" Rong Zheng put down the paintbrush in his hand, and was about to pull Zhou Ling, but found that his palm was stained with some paint, and he couldn't help but shrink his hand, and his movements stopped in mid-air.

Zhou Ling didn't mind pulling Rong Zheng, no matter how hot his ears were, and said softly: "Yes, I want to hide you from others." ”

Although her words are a joke, they are not without sincerity, and there is even no lack of her true thoughts in it.

As soon as Rong Zheng heard Zhou Ling's words, he was stunned, he was actually thinking about how to answer Zhou Ling, Zhou Ling saw his embarrassed look, he knew what he was struggling with, so he said with a smile: "I'm joking!"

"Oh......" Rong Zheng's voice carried an obvious disappointment, and the light in his eyes when he looked at Zhou Ling was not as good as before.

He was still thinking about whether to paint for Zhou Ling alone in the future, but he didn't expect Zhou Ling to suddenly say that she was just joking. It's like, he finally found a gift that Zhou Ling liked, but Zhou Ling suddenly said that she didn't like that thing.

Zhou Ling saw the loss in Rong Zheng's eyes, and immediately figured out what was going on, so he said softly: "Okay, I still want you to be radiant, how can I bear to hide you?"

As she spoke, she suddenly remembered that Rong Zheng had signed up for the painter competition a long time ago, and after the preliminary competition was held here before, Rong Zheng never mentioned the follow-up.

But if she's not mistaken, the final should have been recently.

Hearing Zhou Ling say this, Rong Zheng obviously felt a lot better in his heart, and nodded seriously.

Zhou Ling asked the doubts in his heart, "By the way, is the final of the painter contest you reported before the most recent, why haven't you mentioned it before?"

She remembered that Rong Zheng attached great importance to this competition at the beginning, but she hadn't heard any news from Rong Zheng recently, and she couldn't help but feel strange.

As soon as Zhou Ling's words came out, Rong Zheng's body stiffened. He didn't expect Zhou Ling to suddenly think of the painting competition, and thought that Zhou Ling had forgotten about it.

"What's going on?" Zhou Ling noticed Rong Zheng's unnaturalness, and the inexplicable premonition in his heart suddenly deepened, and he immediately asked in a low voice.

She didn't want to put pressure on Rong Zheng, so she deliberately lowered her voice.

Facing Zhou Ling's questioning, Rong Zheng could no longer escape, he could only look at Zhou Ling and said honestly: "I quit." ”

He never told Zhou Ling about his withdrawal, and he hoped that Zhou Ling would forget that he had participated in the competition, but obviously, Zhou Ling still remembered it.

"Retire?" Zhou Ling frowned, "Why did you retire?"

She was strange, just because Rong Zheng had clearly regarded this painter contest as so important before, but now he said that he had withdrawn from the competition.

And according to Rong Zheng's meaning, he should still take the initiative to withdraw from the game.

Rong Zheng saw the eagerness in Zhou Ling's eyes, and continued to explain: "I'm going to compete in other places, I don't want to go to ......."

He didn't say it was because he didn't want to leave Zhou Ling for too long, but Zhou Ling also heard the meaning of his words, and she also heard the grievances in Rong Zheng's words.

This matter is Rong Zheng's own decision, and it stands to reason that she doesn't need to interfere, but she doesn't know why, she still feels a pity.

"You quit the competition, at least tell me about it. Now that she knows that Rong Zheng has withdrawn from the competition, Zhou Ling has a little unspeakable anger in her heart, but she doesn't know that she has no reason to be angry.

After all, some time ago, she was busy dealing with things at work, and she didn't seem to put too much thought into Rong Zheng, so maybe it wasn't that Rong Zheng didn't want to discuss with her, but that she didn't give Rong Zheng a chance at all.

Thinking of the busyness some time ago, Zhou Ling couldn't help but sigh in his heart again.

"I was wrong...... Zhou Ling's anger was inexplicable, but Rong Zheng still quickly admitted his mistake, because he felt guilty for hiding Zhou Ling all the time.

Zhou Ling looked at his appearance of being angry, and the inexplicable qi that had originally come was also inexplicable.

"Well, I'm not to blame you for that. She went to raise Rong Zheng's lowered head, but suddenly saw Rong Zheng's weak eyes, and suddenly asked, "In addition to this matter, is there anything else to hide from me?"

She didn't mean to question Rong Zheng, let alone disbelieve Rong Zheng's thoughts, but she just thought that according to Rong Zheng's temperament, maybe sometimes she would hide any grievances or injuries from her, so she asked.

It's just that she didn't expect her to just ask so casually, Rong Zheng really thought seriously in front of her, and then looked at her with a frank and lenient expression.

"Really?" Zhou Ling's eyes widened in surprise.

When she asked, she was also sighing that Rong Zheng couldn't hide something in her heart, and her eyes couldn't tell a lie.

Rong Zheng nodded honestly, and then said: "The yard I bought before was sold by me, and 800,000 yuan is in the card at home......"

He spoke very slowly and without hesitation, but Zhou Ling could hear his nervousness. After Zhou Ling heard this, he didn't frown, but said: "That small courtyard should indeed be sold, and I didn't approve of you buying it originally." ”

She said this lightly, as if she didn't care who the owner of the small courtyard was. Because in Zhou Ling's view, dead things are always dead things, and the most important thing is, of course, living things.

Rong Zheng was the first to say what he felt was the most serious thing, and only after hearing Zhou Ling's response and statement did he breathe a sigh of relief. He had been hiding it from Zhou Ling before, and he was waiting for an opportunity to talk about it.

And he had already anticipated a conversation with Zhou Ling in his heart, and even assumed what he would do if there was a dispute between the two of them. But Zhou Ling's reaction was normal, and all the plans he had prepared before were useless.

Zhou Ling saw that Rong Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, and even asked again with a relaxed expression written on his cheeks: "Is there anything else?"

Looking at Rong Zheng's hesitant eyes, she knew more than one thing. Although she didn't ask Rong Zheng to tell her everything, she didn't expect that Rong Zheng would deliberately hide something from her.

She doesn't care too much about things like Xiaoyuan, but if it is something like withdrawing from the competition before, she can't convince herself not to care.

"Yes......" Rong Zheng looked at Zhou Ling and continued to explain, "When you went to save your aunt before, I followed behind......

He was not at ease at the time, so he followed Zhou Ling, and he did not tell Zhou Ling about this matter, which can be regarded as hiding from Zhou Ling.

"That's what happened, I know. Zhou Ling smiled with relief before he said.
