CHAPTER XXXII

Luan Chi, who was sitting precariously, was a little stunned when he heard her words at first glance, he didn't quite understand, but he just drew a sketch of a person's head, why this woman was so nervous.

Judging from her demeanor and brushwork when she was painting just now, it didn't look like she was lying, she should have had two moments, but she seemed to be worried about something.

"Don't be pressured, I'm just trying to keep a souvenir on a whim. ”

Luan Chi got up, took out his lighter, and took the initiative to help Ying Ning light the cigarette between his fingers.

She thanked her with trembling hands and took a big puff before finally calming down a little.

The two were so close that Luan Chi could even smell the perfume on her body, which had already volatilized to the end notes, so it was not pungent, but rather made people feel comfortable with ironing, reminding him of the white shirt that was washed clean in the summer when he was young.

The smell made him relaxing, faint, and a little familiar, as if he had smelled it somewhere. Luan Chi couldn't help but sniffle again, wanting to get closer, but unexpectedly, the woman next to him had already jumped two steps away like a little rabbit, widening the distance between them.

Just now...... That distance...... It's a little too close, indeed, for unfamiliar men and women.

He also withdrew his hand a little embarrassed, and then buckled the lighter, and the aroma on the tip of his nose suddenly spread out a lot, and it was so ethereal that it was difficult to catch.

"Wait a minute, I'll finish it quickly, only the eyes remain, and I'll be done with the painting. ”

Ying Ning eagerly smoked a cigarette and pushed the piece of paper in front of Luan Chi.

He looked down for a moment, showed a satisfied smile, nodded and said, "It's a good drawing, few people can paint me like this, you are the first ......" He paused, and after a moment said in a difficult voice: "...... The second. ”

I remember that in the past, one of Ye Yingning's favorite things to do was to take an eyebrow pencil, eyeliner or lipstick and scribble on her belly. Kittens and dogs, or Luan Chi's comic avatars, with a few strokes, can always be very expressive. Of course, after the painting is the last, the two people will always be tempted to roll together to entangle, and no one will have the heart to write and paint anymore.

When he raised his head again, Luan Chi's face had returned to normal, and he still had a slightly cynical ruffian smile, because the whole person had become emaciated, and when he was laughing, his cheekbones on both sides were even a little protruding.

Ying Ning's cigarette had already been smoked out of two-thirds, and she didn't want to smoke the remaining small part, just about to press it, but she didn't want to, but Luan Chi stretched out her hand and asked curiously: "What is this ......?"

She paused slightly, and then realized what he was talking about.

It was near the end of the filter, there were two lines of words on it, and she took out the cigarettes in the cigarette box one by one, wrote the words on it, and then put it back.

When she wrote it, she could appreciate the loneliness and loneliness of the little dragon girl in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", as well as her bitter thoughts.

"Acquaintance with Jun Chu is like returning to an old friend. The words are beautiful, did you write them?"

Luan Chi played with the short section, looked at it a few times, and couldn't help but praise it repeatedly.

Ying Ning lowered her eyes and said lightly: "When I got home from work at four o'clock in the morning, my ears seemed to be full of rumbling music, and I couldn't fall asleep right away, and I was worried that walking around the room at will wake up my roommates, so I found something to do, slowly calm down, and I can sleep when I am sleepy." ”

She is telling the truth, she now works at "Style" at night, sleeps for four or five hours when she returns, wakes up and eats a simple meal, and begins to copy or paint new works. If she encounters a burst of inspiration, she can complete a painting in three days, and selling it is equivalent to an income.

However, more often than not, I am in a daze in front of the drawing board - not a professional painter, only relying on the limited painting background of my youth, although I have talent, I can't sell it for a long time.

Therefore, this is also the main reason why Ying Ning has not been able to quit her job as a wine promoter, and she needs financial resources.

"Acquaintance with Jun Chu is like returning to an old friend. This sentence is really worth chewing slowly. Besides, how about giving me one?"

Luan Chi himself didn't realize that he actually took the initiative to ask for things from others, and he was still an unfamiliar person.

Ying Ning was stunned, took out the cigarette case again, let him smoke one from it, then put it on his ear, and said with a smile: "Such a literary cigarette, I will keep it for a while and smoke it." ”

She hurriedly picked up a pen and paper and hurriedly filled in the missing two eyes.

No wonder people say that the finishing touch.

After the eye is painted, the whole painting is completely alive, although it is only a simple small portrait, but it also has a unique taste. Ying Ning added a little comic element to the sketch, and Luan Chi on the paper looked smart.

He was also very satisfied, picked it up and looked at it, and then folded it in half and stuffed it into his wallet.

"Yes...... Are you going to give it away?"

Ying Ning watched his cautious movements, and felt a pain in his heart for no reason, he ...... It's not that I want to give my portrait to someone else, for example, the woman who is being herself, does she have a ...... with him?

The strange thought immediately wrapped around her like a vine, making her almost breathless.

"No, I'll keep it myself. ”

Luan Chi didn't see her weirdness, replied with a smile, and then tilted his head and asked, "You gave me such a nice gift, how can I thank you?"

She finally came back to her senses, trying not to let her eyes fall on this longing face, and hurriedly refused: "No, no, no, it's obvious that you helped me a lot, that person surnamed Xu is very difficult to mess with, if it weren't for you, I might ......"

Ying Ning didn't dare to think about the consequences, and as she spoke, she hugged her arms tightly, and there was still a little fear on her face.

"What is he going to do with you?

Luan Chi was angry when he heard her say this, although he didn't know much about her, he intuitively felt that she was different from the other women in the bar. He can't say what is different, but it is different, and it has a taste of standing out from the crowd.

Perhaps, it's because she still has dreams.

Dream, what a distant word, he used to have it, but now, he doesn't know if he can still realize that dream.

"I don't know if the women who work in the bar, even if they are taken advantage of, will not get everyone's sympathy, because from the first day we came here, we were labeled as unclean and self-conscious. Brother Chi, there is nothing else, I'll leave first. Thank you very much today. ”

Ying Ning hid the secret in her heart, bowed, and walked out of the private room.

Luan Chi didn't call out to her, just stood in place, and after a while, he took the cigarette from his ear, put it in the middle of the person and rubbed it a few times, and suddenly there was no desire to smoke. He stuffed the cigarette in the innermost layer of his wallet, and even he couldn't tell why he treasured this inexpensive lady's cigarette, probably because of the small line of juanxiu on it.

It's like an old friend. When will his deceased return?!

Casually turned off the light in the private room, Luan Chi straightened his clothes, and walked out.

Just as he disappeared at the end of the corridor, a figure walked out from behind a door next door, and the person didn't know when Lu Dao appeared here, but Luan Chi didn't even notice it.

It's Zhong Wanmei.

As soon as she returned, she looked for Luan Chi everywhere, and later a princess told her that Luan Chi was here.

Unexpectedly, he actually stayed in a private room for more than ten minutes with a wine promotion, talking and laughing.
