Chapter 17: A Guest at Home
Sleepless all night, Liu Mingxin's spirit was good, and overnight, he thought a lot and figured out a lot. The killing in the middle of the night did not leave a trace except for a saber, but Liu Mingxin would not be naïve to regard it as a dream.
Someone is going to kill him, this is already a sure thing, and what Liu Mingxin wants to find out now is who secretly planned last night's Yiqiē.
Liu Mingxin's mind kept rotating the names of three people: Zhang Shuofeng, Qi Shaocong, and Zheng Chengkai.
The three of them who have had conflicts with Liu Mingxin, Zhang Shuofeng and Qi Shaocong needless to say, these two people have already killed themselves, have a criminal record, and the matter of hiring a murderer is also familiar, and it is the most likely.
As for Zheng Chengkai, the direct contradiction between him and Liu Mingxin was caused by Liu Simiao, but the conflict was not intense, and the two were still in the stage of fighting each other.
So Liu Mingxin quickly kicked Zheng Chengkai out of the ranks of suspects, and instead targeted Zhang Shuofeng and Qi Shaocong. Liu Ming wanted to figure out whether it was a killer hired by one of the two of them, or if, like last time, it was a conspiracy planned by the two of them together.
It's a pity that the killer is dead, and even his soul has been directly devoured by the resentful spirit, otherwise he would have been able to find out the truth of the matter through the clue of guò.
But it's too late to say anything now, Liu Mingxin also has a lot of complaints about the dead killer, and the current killer is too watery, and the guy who can't even punch himself is embarrassed to eat in the killer world.
Just when Liu Mingxin lamented that there were too many liars in this world, Wang Qing, the beautiful housekeeper of the villa, came over: "Mr. Liu, there is a person who calls himself Dean Zhang looking for you outside, he is now outside the door, may I ask him to come in?" ”
"Dean Zhang? This old boy came quickly, I didn't settle accounts with him, he came to the door first, since he came, let him in. Hearing that Zhang Shuofeng was outside the door, Liu Mingxin came to his senses, and he really wanted to know what this old boy wanted to do when he came over.
Soon, Zhang Shuofeng was taken into the living room of the villa by Wang Qing.
Looking at the dark and luxurious decoration in the living room, Zhang Shuofeng's heart was full of envy. Although he also has the ability to get such a residence, due to institutional reasons, he does not dare to do so, otherwise the Commission for Discipline Inspection will directly send someone to invite him over for tea without others reporting it.
"Zhang Shuofeng, what are you doing here? We shouldn't be close enough to hang out with each other, right? For this two-faced Dean Zhang, Liu Mingxin directly gave the other party a dismount as soon as he came up.
"Liu Mingxin, I think there is some misunderstanding between us, the last time you were asked to leave the academy, I had to leave the academy, if I knew that your hand was already good, I wouldn't have made such a decision, right?" Hearing Liu Mingxin's unceremonious words, Zhang Shuofeng's face darkened, but he endured it.
"Misunderstanding? I don't think that's a misunderstanding? I don't believe you don't know what kind of difficulties I will face after I leave the academy at that time? Liu Mingxin has a deep understanding of Zhang Shuofeng's appearance, and he naturally won't believe the other party's nonsense.
Looking at Liu Mingxin, who was a little uninspired, Zhang Shuofeng was also a little helpless, but when he thought of his future, he could only endure it.
"Liu Mingxin, those things have passed, I came this time to hope that you can return to the academy, after all, it is also half of your home, isn't it?" In desperation, Zhang Shuofeng played the emotional card to Liu Mingxin.
Now Liu Mingxin's heart is full of emotion, how thick can a person's face be in these years: "Okay, Dean Zhang, even if Capital College is half of my home, it is only a matter of the past, since the moment you kicked me out of the college, this half of my home has completely disappeared." ”
"Liu Mingxin, I think you should think carefully, you must know that your studies have not been completed, if you don't go back to the academy, then you won't be able to get a diploma from our Capital Academy of Fine Arts at all." Hearing Liu Mingxin's answer, Zhang Shuofeng said with a slight threat.
"Really? The first diploma of the University of Fine Arts, so majestic? But do you think I'll care about that little diploma? Do you think that you are the only art academy in the whole Huaxia country? Seeing that the other party actually threatened himself with a diploma, Liu Mingxin turned his face directly, and almost hit someone.
"Liu Mingxin, don't be ashamed, believe it or not, as long as I say a word, no academy will dare to take you in from now on." Now that his face has been torn, Zhang Shuofeng is also in his original form, but as soon as his words fell, a voice came from outside that made him almost vomit blood.
"Who is this? I am not afraid of the wind flashing my tongue, who said that no one dares to take in Liu Painter, our Central Academy of Fine Arts is planning to invite Liu Painter to be a visiting professor with us, Dean Zhang, you can try a word, see if I, a bad old man, dare to leave Liu Painter behind. ”
"You, you're ......, huh! Like Liu Mingxin's flamboyant and disrespectful students, our Capital Academy of Fine Arts is not rare, if you Li Qiuming want, I will leave it to you. ”
Now Zhang Shuofeng is not going to stay here, he is not only embarrassed to stay here, but also embarrassed. So after leaving a cruel word, he left in a hurry.
"Dean Li, why are you here, it should be the juniors who visit you." Although Liu Mingxin is not a student of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, he is very clear about the shadow of the famous tree of people and the name of Li Qiuming.
Li Qiuming is not only the dean of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, but also a well-known master of calligraphy and painting, not only superb painting, but also unique in his own handwriting, self-contained, I am afraid that there are few people in the Chinese art world who do not know Liu Qiuming.
"Painter Liu, you are too modest, your picture of the golden dragon playing with pearls is something that I can't catch up with the old man, I came here to ask for advice." Although Li Qiuming is the head of the hospital, he is not proud at all, he looks more like a kind old man, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.
"Dean Li, you are too polite, the younger generation has admired Li Lao for a long time, if you want to ask for advice, then I want to ask you for advice." For an old man with high moral standing like Li Lao, Liu Mingxin respected him from the bottom of his heart and didn't say any lies.
"Mr. Li, Mr. Liu, please drink tea." Just when the two were humble to each other, Wang Qing came over with two cups of tea, and Liu Mingxin and Li Qiuming were also thirsty, and this tea came at the right time.
"Old Li, how did you know I live here?" Looking at Li Qiuming, who was drinking tea, Liu Mingxin asked with some doubts.
"Oh, I learned about Painter Liu's residence from that old guy Liu Menglong, I came here this time to see Painter Liu's other paintings, I don't know if it's convenient?" Li Qiuming said with some embarrassment.
"There's nothing inconvenient, since I want to see the younger generation paint, and the younger generation happens to have a recent work here, so I ask Li Lao to give me some advice." After Liu Mingxin finished speaking, he went back to the room and took out the picture of the girl in white in his room.
"Good, good, good, I didn't expect that Painter Liu is not only good at painting dragons, but even this portrait is vivid, smart and vivid, the old man is really worth the trip?"
Seeing the white-clothed girl in the painting who looked like a fairy, Li Lao's mouth came out with three good words, and it can be seen that he affirmed and appreciated this painting.
Whether it is brushwork or painting, Liu Mingxin's painting has completely conquered Li Lao, especially the spirituality of the girl in the painting, and the eyes looking into the distance can really make people intoxicated.
Li Lao has seen few character paintings in his life, and there are many of them with superb brushwork, but if you compare it with Liu Mingxin's painting, it is like the difference between heaven and earth.
"Old Li praises it, the younger generation is ashamed!" Hearing Elder Li's praise, although Liu Mingxin was also very happy, he didn't forget to be modest.
"Well, Painter Liu should not be modest, you must know that excessive modesty is equivalent to pride. Now that the painting is finished, let's talk about the topic I just mentioned, would Painter Liu be willing to come to our single visiting professor at the Central Academy of Fine Arts? "Although the painting is good, but the business is equally important, resisting the urge to continue to admire, Li Lao returned to the truth, and brought the topic to the matter just now.
"Old Li, you are really laughing, I am only twenty-one years old, how can I be a visiting professor?" Liu Mingxin didn't want to be a visiting professor, not because he didn't have that ability, but because he didn't want to be bound by other things.
"Ambition is not old, there are already ancients, Liu painters should not be modest, rest assured, even if you become a visiting professor, the college will not restrict your freedom, only a few classes a year, at most let Liu show his painting skills in class, so that those students can improve."
Li Lao knew what Liu Mingxin was worried about, so he directly made things clear, so that it would be difficult for Liu Mingxin to continue to refuse.
Hearing Elder Li's words, Liu Mingxin thought for a moment: "Okay, since that's the case, then I'll promise Elder Li to be a visiting professor with a cheeky face." ”
Liu Mingxin has also figured out that Li Lao asked him to be this visiting professor, which is a win-win situation, it can further expand its popularity with the name of a visiting professor of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, and the academy can retain him as a painter who is in the limelight, which naturally has a lot of benefits.
After talking about the matter, Liu Mingxin and Li Lao talked about many inconsequential things, everything in the south and the north, but it was always Li Lao who said it, and Liu Mingxin was just in the audience.
It wasn't until the two of them drank a pot of tea that Li Lao said goodbye and left.
Sending off Li Lao, Liu Mingxin finally breathed a sigh of relief, chatting with Li Lao is really a very painful thing, Li Lao's decades of life experience is not comparable to Liu Mingxin's fledgling "little friend".
Even Wang Qing on the side was the same, from beginning to end, he didn't insert a word, and he was also a loyal listener, and after Li Lao left, the two looked at each other and smiled, feeling extremely relaxed.
But it didn't take long for Liu Mingxin to relax, and his trouble came again......
