"Erica, is that you? You're back? The seventy or eighty-year-old man stood up to meet him, took Tan Xining's hand, and his eyes were no longer strict when facing the drawing board, but full of wind and frost, and the wrinkles on his face bloomed like daisies, showing love.

"Caspar, it's me, Erica, I'm back." I was infected by him, and I became excited. Before she came, she was hesitant, although she had discussed with the teacher, to come back as soon as possible to train, to do the most basic painting work, but did not tell him when he came back, every time he asked, he only said that he did not think about it and did not arrange it, he was worried on the side, but he forgot that he was also a student brought up by Caspar, he was reluctant to the teacher, the teacher will naturally miss her as a student, she did this, it is indeed too selfish. If it weren't for this competition, it would be a question of when and whether I could return!

"In the past few years, Caspar is sorry, I'm sorry I didn't say goodbye, I'm sorry I didn't hear from me, in short, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Tan Xining's eyes were astringent, and he felt that something could not be controlled, and he broke out.

"Don't talk about that, it's good to be back. This competition is very important to all parties. Masters of all ages, from various genres, organizations, and some freelancers and calligraphy and painting enthusiasts, in short, those who are famous and those who are not famous, will gather here. I know you have a problem with socializing, so I don't expect you to make any more friends. Think about you and Kayla, your personalities are at two extremes, one is not good at dealing with people, the other is arrogant and good at these but disdainful to do it, you two are students of me and Hosea respectively, and you don't belong to one genre, but you can become a relative confidant, very fateful. ”

It's true that there is fate, but how can it be said in a few words, it is clear that there is no speculation in more than half a sentence!

"Caspar, the two of us are not confidants, that's called a sworn enemy, your Chinese level needs to be improved!" The grasp and use of the words themselves and the meaning of the words are not very good, you have to work hard! "In the UK, they want students to call their names more than teachers, which is more intimate, contrary to Chinese habits, but Tan Xining has also adapted very well, and this strong adaptability is inseparable from the education of old Sophia.

As the heir of a family, you must be able to make the most accurate judgment at any time, whether it is a crisis to the point of life, or when you want to roll in excitement, it is just caused by the excessive secretion of hormones in the cerebral cortex, which causes the central nervous system to be excited. Maybe a small decision can determine the future direction of the entire family, a family of hundreds of people open their mouths to eat, she can't risk their lives. This is what you have to think about as a patriarch!

Now that it has been decided that Erica is the designated heir and the first in line of succession, she has to teach her even harder. In fact, strictly speaking, Tan Xining's mild autism and lack of love for interacting with others may be caused by this period, but there is no way, the head of the clan is destined not to be too lively, and it cannot be chattering, which will damage the majesty of the patriarch and affect the obedience of his subordinates to orders, so although this is not pleasant, it is indeed the result that old Sophia wants to see the most.

"Erica, from tomorrow onwards, you're going to paint on the busiest streets of London, drawing people when there's people, drawing buildings and animals when they're not around, whether they're still or moving, each one has to have a different style. Can it be done? ”

"Yes."

"Also, because the materials for this competition are provided by the organizers, so you can't use your own sketchboard brushes or anything for this sketch, I will provide you with a qiē, remember, no matter when and where you use to paint, don't lose your own unique style. Unique! ”

"I know, I'll go tomorrow!" Since you know so well, can you explain why you are so rude to your paintings? It's all from your hands, it's all drawn by you, why are those paintings in the way of your eyes, do you have to torture them so much, is it that Caspar has bipolar disorder, and you have to destroy something to stop, that's terrible! This is a disease, and it must be cured! Remember, it's time to heal as soon as possible!

"It's too late today, you know, Kayla came to me during the day to ask when you're coming back, I don't know, I can't sue her, and then she left, I think it's probably because you haven't been in touch and angry!" Thinking of the girl's anxious appearance during the day, and then looking at the apprentice's unrelated appearance, he really wanted to laugh.

"Caspar, if I don't participate in this competition, you're not as anxious as Kayla?"

"I can't say that, I pay special attention to your thoughts, and I won't force you to do things you don't like."

"Crown-sounding." She said hatefully, and then she really didn't have the heart to face the teacher and his work here, and if she would meet Kayla again, she better hurry up!

He said goodbye to Caspar and said that he would come over tomorrow to pick up his painting tools, and then left in a hurry.

Sometimes a girl's instinct is really not too accurate. As soon as she walked on the front foot, Kayla came on the back foot, making Caspar marvel at her insight!

The next day, Tan Xining didn't wear the clothes that Harry designed for herself, but wore a more formal loungewear, anyway, on the streets of London, they didn't know who they were, they didn't have to care too much about etiquette and behavior, and besides, she was shot to change places, and she would definitely not be recognized.

She didn't let the driver at home send her, because she had no destination, and she didn't know where she was going, so she found a random bus with her painting tools and got on it, and let it take her anywhere, on the way she received a call from Harry's assistant, Andy Fruman, who always delivered clothes to her house, and he called that he had heard that she was back and that he was going to pick her up.

She only said that she still had something to do, she didn't have time, she refused his kindness, and when she hung up the phone, she reacted, how did this person know that she was back, she went to Caspar's studio yesterday and didn't see anyone, how did he know?

The bus prompted, there was one more stop to the terminal, she didn't think about the previous things, and she didn't stop, she got off the bus one stop in advance, and the big drawing board was behind her, making her one meter seven tall look petite, and found a place that was not too many people but not a small place to sit down, put the tools one by one, and waited to find the business that came to the door!

At first, no one looked for her, so she could only paint there, painting buildings and people around her, she had a little experience, this may be the meaning of Caspar asking her to come to "street performing", the noisy street market is annoying, and experiencing its unrest may make her face the game, more calm, not presumptuous and arrogant. In other words, as long as you can have a bright watch in it, you will have the opportunity to start all over again. She can leave home halfway to study medicine, or she can go back to the original path, and she believes that she has the strength.

In the face of those leaders of various genres, she may not be sure of winning, but she has to lose with style, and she is not self-righteous and thinks that the award is her own, perhaps, she can also be detached and indifferent in the face of gains and losses.

It's just that she still has to practice hard for this gain and loss, otherwise she will cry if she loses too badly.

She scratched her head, forget it, she didn't want these useless anymore, obviously there was no result yet, how could she say that she couldn't win! Don't you be so unconfident! She is also very powerful, even if she can't win the championship, she has to put a little pressure on those people, after all, making the champion a little pressure is not something ordinary supporting actors can do.

A morning passed, and when Tan Xining thought that this day was going to pass like this, he suddenly came to business!

It is also a small couple of Chinese people, who came to London for a tour, saw Tan Xining's business stall, and wanted to leave a souvenir for their trip.

"Hello, what's the matter with you?" The man came over and asked, and she swept the girl in her afterglow, and she always felt very familiar.

"Well, it's a portrait of you." What else could it be, this, does it seem so hard to understand?

"Then please draw it for us!"

"Okay, please sit there for a while, don't move yet, and when I tell you to move, you can move again."

The two of them sat in Tan Xining's designated position, motionless. Tan Xining looked at it and felt funny, and drew it on his hand again, and finally couldn't stand the sternness of those two people, so he interrupted them loudly.

"You relax a little, your expression is softer, don't be so stiff, you are just taking care of my small business at a roadside stall, and you don't take photos on the marriage certificate, you don't have to be so strict."

The man was amused by her, and echoed her: "Yes, but we are not far from getting married, we have already received a marriage certificate, this time we are going to travel, and we will have a banquet when we go back." ”

Speaking of marriage, he smiled, obviously this matter was very much in line with his heart.

"Married at such a young age, the relationship is good, right?"

"It's not that deep, I was unrequited love before, and then I finally got the beauty back, I'm very happy!"

"It's not unrequited love, but I still have concerns, I can't give up the material in my hand, after all, I'm a money worshipper." The girl retorted, a little dissatisfied with why men have to say that they are unrequited love every time, and have a tendency to set off themselves, she doesn't want others to think that he has climbed himself, since he is with him, she wants to give him equal feelings, no one is good or bad, who is high and who is low!

Tan Xining glanced at her, but she still felt familiar, even the voice, she was familiar. But I just can't remember who it is, what's wrong with her, her memory is getting worse and worse, is it because she's getting older and her brain capacity is full?

The man smiled, didn't explain much, the two of them looked at each other, their eyes were glued, Tan Xi stared at it clearly, and the air around the two of them became ambiguous and viscous.

"Ahem." Tan Xining coughed, she felt the need to remind them, don't help it, this is the streets of London, although the British are generally open, but there are still some conservative deposits, it is better to be polite. Besides, she is a person who has a male ticket but is not around, their behavior of showing affection at the moment is sinful, and it can't be condemned, but it's okay to interrupt!

The girl smiled, and then said in a familiar tone: "Tan Xining, you don't know me?" ”

The dragging tone evoked Tan Xining's memories, "You are Zou Ting." She affirmed.

"It's me. It was your words that made me know what to do and what not to do. Withdraw in time, and don't talk to you, otherwise you damaged me that night, maybe I really won't be me, even with Chen Feng, I may ignore his affection because I am not worthy of him. Tan Xining, thank you for waking me up. ”

"No thanks."

As soon as Zou Ting's words came out, Tan Xining felt that the man's eyes had changed, a little sharp, but with gratitude, young man, what are you doing? But she quite understands his thoughts, and he naturally doesn't like the girl he likes, but because of her, he indirectly sent her to him, and he can't help but be grateful! So, I guess he didn't have anything to say to himself.

Since they were acquaintances, she asked them more than one if they wanted a character sketch or an oil painting.

Zou Ting and Chen Feng are not professional people, they don't understand these, and they briefly explained it to them.

"Sketching is a black and white stick figure, which is simply sketched out casually, and oil painting is meant to be colored, but it is relatively slow. And I don't have that much time, so it's not necessarily when it will be drawn, which one do you want? ”

"According to you, of course, I chose oil painting! Time is not in a hurry, just let us see. Zou Ting replied with a smile.

"Okay, that's it, I'll give you the sketch first, and when the oil painting is finished, I'll give it to you."

"Okay, thank you."

Tan Xining smiled and said that he didn't care, and continued to move in his hands.

"Tan Xining, are you here to study, why are you still painting? Han Zijin should give you money, right? ”

"I grew up here when I was a child, and then I returned to China, my original major was oil painting, and painting here was ordered by my teacher to follow, as for money, I am not short of money."

As she spoke, she stopped with the pen in her hand, and showed them the drawing, so that they could see what they were not satisfied with, and she could change it.

In the picture, the man is sitting and the girl is standing behind him, one big and one small are surprisingly harmonious, and they all love it!

"Let's go, I'll take you to my house and take you to eat authentic London grilled steak and Dover flounder, otherwise you'll be in London for nothing!"

"Excuse me, right?"

"It's okay, my grandparents and my mother are very hospitable, you will be happy to go."

"Thank you then!" (To be continued.) )
