Although Meng Cuizhen was busy eating, the words of the father and daughter all received her ears, and she was also sad and shed tears-

The next day, Alyssa came to the vicinity of Yenching Institute of Technology without informing her brother in advance.

"Hello classmates, is there a gallery near the school?" Alyssa felt that if her brother was really part-time, the gallery must not be far from the school, otherwise it would be very inconvenient. So, she walked to the campus and asked people when she met them.

"It seems that there is one, what is it called?" A big boy said.

"Tree-Ring Gallery." The girl next to the boy said.

"How do you get there?" It's really hard to find a place to step through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it, but I didn't expect Alyssa to ask as soon as I asked.

"Turn left after the school gate, see the intersection and turn right, you can see it after walking a short distance." The girl said, gesturing.

"Thank you." After Alyssa finished speaking, she walked towards the Rings Gallery.

"Hello, do you want to see a painting?" Liang Wei saw that a guest was coming, so she asked.

"Hello, I would like to ask, is there a young man named Ai Zheming who works here?" Alyssa asked with a smile.

Liang Wei couldn't figure out the identity of the other party, and hesitated and didn't know how to answer.

"Oh, I'm Alyssa, Elchem's sister, and I'm looking for him for something." Seeing this, Alyssa hurriedly explained.

"This ......" Liang Wei thought to herself, if you are Ai Zheming's sister, why don't you go directly to the school to find him or call his mobile phone, come to me and ask something?

"That's right, my brother got into a frustration with me and didn't answer my phone, so he ......," Alyssa continued to explain, seemingly embarrassed.

"Oh, he's working part-time with me from three to five o'clock this afternoon." After listening to Elisa's explanation, Liang Wei said.

"Three to five?" Alyssa thought to herself, what time is this?

"Oh, yes, he's going to teach a student to draw at this time." Liang Wei said.

"He teaches others to draw?" Alyssa asked incredulously.

"Yes, your brother is very talented." Liang Wei praised.

"How long has he been with you?" Alyssa asked.

"It's been three or four years, didn't your brother tell you?" Liang Wei asked rhetorically.

"Oh, thank you." Alyssa left without answering Liang Wei's question, three or four years, that is, my younger brother has been working part-time here since his freshman year? When did he start drawing? Why don't you know anything about it?

Alyssa thought as she walked, and unknowingly came to a shop that sold painting materials. Forget it, since my brother likes it and hasn't delayed his studies, let him be.

"Girl, what do you want to buy?" The boss asked kindly.

"I see you have a lot of paint here." Looking at the dazzling array of paints, Alyssa smiled.

"I have the most complete pigments here, with high, medium and low grades in terms of quality, and the price is relatively favorable. What paint are you going to want? The boss said sincerely.

"Look, what kind of paint do you need to paint like this?" Alyssa didn't understand, so she took out her phone, opened her brother's painting, and asked.

"Well, it's an oil painting, and the painting skills are quite good, but the paint is a little worse." The boss carefully admired the painting and said with a smile.

"Looks like you're a connoisseur." Alyssa praised, hoping that the boss would recommend something practical to her.

"It's not really, it's just that I studied it before, and then I gave up when my family didn't have any money." The boss confessed.

"Can you help me choose a suitable pigment?" Alyssa laughed.

"What price do you want?" The boss asked with a smile.

"How much money do you have?" Alyssa asked.

"Divided into large, medium and small branches, there are also canned ones, the price ranges from a few yuan to a few hundred yuan, there are domestic and imported, the most bought are Windsor, horsepower, Rubens, the price is relatively cheap, like Van Gogh, Kusha, Rembrandt's price is more expensive, I have the most expensive here is the old Holland, of course, all of them are also divided into series." The boss pointed to the shelves and gave a detailed introduction.

"How much does it cost to import such a large old Dutch?" Alyssa was even more confused when she heard this, so she casually picked up a 40ml paint and gestured.

"I only have four grades of ABCD in my old Holland, a 40ml A-grade is 190 yuan, B-grade is 340 yuan, C-grade is 580 yuan, and D-grade is the most expensive 760 yuan. In fact, for students, there is no need to buy such a good one, it is too expensive. The boss thought that Alyssa was a student at the school, so he said.

"How many do you usually buy?" Alyssa asked.

"Old Holland had 168 colors, but it's almost the same if you buy 12-24 colors. If you really want to buy it, grade A is enough. The boss said.

"Can it still be cheap?" Alyssa asked.

"How much are you going to buy?" If you buy more, you can be cheaper. The boss said.

"How much does it cost to buy 24?" Alyssa said.

"I see that you also buy it sincerely, and the minimum is 170 yuan, which cannot be less." The boss said.

"150 yuan, forget it if you don't sell it." Alyssa said.

"160 yuan, it's really indispensable." The boss said embarrassedly.

"Okay, you help me pick the colors." Alyssa really wanted to buy it, so she didn't care about it anymore.

"Don't worry, you can't be wrong. I've been running this shop for years. The boss said with a smile.

"How much?" Packing the paint, Alyssa asked.

"A total of 3,840 yuan." The boss said with a quick mental calculation.

"Can you draw a card here?" Alyssa asked.

"Yes, you bought this for your boyfriend, right?" The boss asked.

"I bought it for my brother." Alyssa said proudly.

"The pigment you bought is really expensive, I hope your brother can cherish it and use it and learn something." The boss said sincerely.

"Thank you." Alyssa walked away with the paint.

After buying the paint, Alyssa went to the nearby supermarket to buy some delicious food for her brother, and then dialed her brother's phone, she planned to ask his brother out to have a good talk, but the phone rang for a while before the other party answered.

"Hey, sister." Ai Zheming's voice came through the telephone microphone, and he seemed very unenergetic.

"Stinky boy, what are you doing? Speak so weakly? Alyssa scolded.

"Stay in the dormitory." Ai Zheming said.

"I'm right at the gate of your school, come out." Alyssa said.

"Why didn't you say it in advance?" Ai Zheming complained.

"What? Are you a thief? Alyssa retorted.

"Not really." Ai Zheming said.

"Hurry up, I'll be waiting for you at the gazebo in front of your school." Alyssa hung up the phone.

Ai Zheming looked at the "beep" phone, and he was extremely irritable.

Alyssa looked at the scenery of the campus and felt great, but unfortunately, she didn't have the opportunity to go to college. Fortunately, my younger brother is very competitive, and he can be regarded as making up for his regrets.

"I'm scared to death, why don't you talk when you come?" Alyssa suddenly felt that there was someone behind her, turned around and saw that it was her brother, so she said angrily.

Ai Zheming looked at his sister, kicked the stone with his foot, and did not speak.

"I think something is wrong with you lately, let's say, what are you busy with?" Alyssa saw her brother's haggard face and felt a little distressed.

"Nothing busy." Ai Zheming put his hands in his pockets, lowered his head, and muttered quietly.

"What's not busy? So what's going on with the gallery? Alyssa didn't intend to mention this, but seeing her brother's attitude, she couldn't help but be a little angry, so her voice raised a lot.

Ai Zheming refused to admit it, and he couldn't deny it, so he simply kept silent.

"You don't say it, do you? I've been to the gallery and asked, you've been there for three or four years, why have you been hiding it from me? Seeing this, Alyssa said angrily.

"What's wrong with me going to the gallery to work part-time? It's better than you! When Ai Zheming heard this, he yelled dissatisfied.

Alyssa looked at her brother in shock, she had never seen her brother like this, she was a little overwhelmed, and she thought, what did she do wrong, and her brother treated her like this?

Ai Zheming suddenly realized that he was wrong, so he drooped his head and said, "I'll go back if there's nothing to do, and I have something to do in the afternoon." ”

"Stop, you make it clear." Alyssa stood up and shouted.

"There's not much to say." Ai Zheming clenched his fists and said with his back to his sister.

"What did I do wrong, you want to do this, what am I sorry for you?!" Alyssa yelled.

"You say, what's going on with the case of Allure International? Also, who turned the tide at the promotion meeting? Ai Zheming couldn't hold back any longer and asked loudly.

"Who told you anything? Isn't it Tang Jingjing? Alyssa didn't expect her brother to be angry with her because of this, so she asked.

"You don't have to be suspicious of people, and I didn't think you're still thinking about these things." Ai Zheming was disappointed with his sister's reaction.

"You don't understand, in the workplace, it's all about deceitful and calculating each other, don't be used by people with intentions." Alyssa said weakly.

"No one uses me, but I see and hear it myself. Moreover, you are the one who cheated on me now! Ai Zheming said with tears in his eyes.

"How do you know?" Alyssa still struggled with the question.

"I'm the poor boy you call a poor boy who deserves to do manual work all his life! Do you understand now?! Ai Zheming said word by word and indignantly.

"What?" Alyssa didn't expect that it was her brother who bumped into her that day, and she said so many ugly things at the time.

Alyssa was silent.

"I'm sorry, listen to me." Alyssa grabbed her brother and said softly.

Ai Zheming stopped, but refused to turn back.

"I am the gold medal planner of New Vision, and it stands to reason that I should be responsible for this level of case, but Lin Jie asked me to start with Tang Jingjing and help her complete this planning. I, an old man who has worked for eight years, should I go to work for a newcomer who has just worked for a year? What will others think? Besides, I told you before, I'm going to do this case. I couldn't get angry, so ......" said Alyssa, who burst into tears.

"Okay sister, I don't blame you. Maybe I haven't been working yet and don't know much about the rules of the workplace, but anyway, I still don't agree with your approach. Seeing this, Ai Zheming couldn't get angry anymore.

"Are you willing to forgive your sister?" Alyssa burst into tears and laughed.

"Hmm." Ai Zheming nodded.

"You see you're thin, let's go, sister, please go eat something good." As soon as Alyssa finished speaking, her phone rang......
