The whole book.,The fastest update I want to accompany you day and night with the latest chapter!

After walking around the neighborhood with her, Lu Chengfeng went back, Ning Chaoxi didn't want to go home so early, so she wandered around the neighborhood alone, she walked to the central square, the square covers a vast area, there is a fountain in the center, there is a group of aunts on the left who are dancing square dances, and there are a few people scattered on the right.

Ning Chaoxi walked along the fountain, his eyes inadvertently glanced, and he saw a person sitting on the back of the fountain, wearing a pure white cotton shirt, his straight figure was cut off by the flowing water, there was a drawing board in front of him, the cuffs were folded in a neat arc, revealing his white-skinned arms, his hand was holding a pen, and the tip of the pen was scribbling on the drawing paper.

Ning Chaoxi noticed that a young woman was sitting a few meters away from him, holding a sitting posture with her legs crossed, her eyes staring at this side, and Chen Xun's drawing paper was sketching the woman's face, and it didn't take long for the woman to come over, take a closer look at her portrait on the drawing board, and take out the money and hand it to him with satisfaction.

"Handsome guy, do you sell your own portrait?" The woman threw a wink at Chen Xun.

Chen Xun took the drawing paper off the drawing board and handed it to her, glancing at the money in her hand: "It's too much." ”

The woman stuffed the fifty yuan in her hand into his hand, and took her portrait with a smile: "I see that you are working so hard, you don't need to find the rest of the money, you paint so beautifully, I will introduce a friend to come over another day." ”

Chen Xun didn't answer, pulled out a new piece of drawing paper and sandwiched it on the drawing board, the woman waited for a long time and didn't hear a response, muttered softly, 'I don't understand the amorous feelings', and then walked away on high heels.

Ning Chaoxi's eyebrows moved slightly, he walked over lightly, stood still in front of his drawing board, pinched his throat and said, "Handsome guy, do you want to paint a portrait?" How much does it cost? ”

Chen Xun raised his head, and saw the girl with a beautiful face looking at him with bright eyebrows and smiling, his eyes moved, his eyes drooped slightly, and he saw the pillow she was holding in her hand.

"Why don't you speak?" Ning Chaoxi straightened up and resumed his normal voice.

As soon as she looked down, she saw the small cardboard he placed beside her, on which was his handwriting, which read: Portrait, ten yuan each.

Ning Chaoxi remembered the woman's words just now, pursed her lips a little unpleasantly, and she took out ten yuan from her bag: "Chen Xun, you can help me draw one." ”

Chen Xun confiscated her money, only raised her chin and let her sit on a folding chair a few meters away: "Go there and sit down." ”

Ning Chaoxi bent his eyebrows and said obediently: "Okay." She walked over to the chair and sat down, put the cat pillow in her lap, and looked at him with a smile out of the corner of her eye.

Although the weather is gloomy today, the temperature is not low, Ning Chaoxi wore a thin aqua blue coat and a white chiffon skirt, without other modifications, but the whole person looks fresh and refined, and there is a slim beauty when still.

Chen Xun's heart moved, and he quickly gathered his mind and raised his pen to compose a picture on the paper, he drew quickly, showing her demeanor on the paper.

Ning Chaoxi has a very intuitive feeling as a model, she maintains a posture unchanged, but after sitting for a long time, she feels that her waist is a little sore, and she just wants to move when she sees Chen Xun put away the pen.

She stood up and moved her feet, and ran over: "Finished drawing?" ”

Chen Xun withdrew to let her see, although he had already seen his painting skills, but Ning looked at the portrait on the painting paper day and night, and couldn't help but exclaim: "It seems." ”

She touched the pillow that he had drawn on the paper, and said with a smile: "Chen Xun, you see that this pillow is not like the kitten in the painting you gave me last time." ”

Chen Xun glanced at it and said coldly: "It's not like it." ”

"I think it's quite similar, you see how cute." Ning Chaoxi raised the pillow in his hand at him.

"Where did it come from?"

Ning Chaoxi touched the soft cat ears: "Lu Chengfeng gave me, oh, Lu Chengfeng is the squad leader in our previous class, this is his birthday gift to me." She said, raised her eyes to look at Chen Xundao, her eyes brightened: "Chen Xun, today is my birthday, do you have anything to say?" ”

Chen Xun took off the drawing paper, picked up a painting tube next to him, opened it and put it in, and handed it to her after putting it away: "I'll give it to you." ”

Ning Chaoxi took it and carefully held it in the palm of his hand, curled the corners of his mouth, and said deliberately: "You want to send me away with a painting?" ”

Chen Xun hooked the corners of his lips and smiled, and said helplessly: "What else do you want?" ”

Ning Chaoxi was already very satisfied with receiving his paintings, but she just said it casually, and didn't really answer him, she asked, "Chen Xun, how many pictures have you painted today?" ”

"Three."

"So little?" But think about it, sitting here quietly like him, neither calling nor shouting, it is strange for someone to look at it, Ning Chaoxi looked at more and more pedestrians around him, his eyes rolled, and said: "Chen Xun, I'll help you pull people." ”

Just do it, Ning Chaoxi stuffed the pillow in his hand into him, walked to the front to pull people, grabbed a pair of young people casually and said: "Do you want to take a look, there are handsome guys here who can help you paint portraits, ten yuan a piece, and you can paint it soon." ”

As soon as I heard that there was a handsome guy, many little girls passing by were attracted, even if they didn't want a portrait, just sit there and stare at the handsome guy for ten minutes, after the painting, there were many girls who asked if they could take a photo with Chen Xun, Chen Xun didn't speak, but Ning Chaoxi refused: "Sorry, we don't take pictures." ”

"It's just one, I can add money." The girl continued.

Chen Xun originally wanted to say that he wouldn't shoot if he added money, but Ning Chaoxi's eyes lit up and he said, "How much?" ”

"Ten yuan ......" The girl saw Ning Chaoxi frowning when she finished speaking, and she changed her words again: "Twenty." ”

"Deal!" Ning Chaoxi instantly smiled.

In this way, Chen Xun was pulled to take a group photo in a daze, and Ning Chaoxi got the money and smiled from ear to ear: "Chen Xun, why don't you go to be a photography model part-time, you see that the money you take pictures is more than the money you paint." ”

Chen Xun had a cold face: "Don't shoot." ”

Ning Chaoxi touched his arm and persuaded: "Don't be like this, it's just a group photo, you see that you can earn twice as much money as you paint." ”

But no matter how she persuaded her, Chen Xun insisted on not taking pictures anymore.

Although he didn't agree to take a group photo, Ning Chaoxi brought in a lot of guests and helped Chen Xun make a lot of money.

She squatted on the floor to help him count the money, and after counting it clearly, she handed him a handful of banknotes in her hand, blinked her eyes and said, "Congratulations to Boss Chen, you have a good income today." ”

Chen Xun took the money in her hand and gave half of it to her: "Yours." ”

"What? You want to pay me. Ning Chaoxi got up from the ground and clapped his hands, but didn't answer, "I don't want it, you can take it yourself, I am obliged to help, and I don't charge money." ”

"Besides, this can be used to offset wages." Ning Chaoxi touched the painting tube in his hand.

"It doesn't count." Chen Xun said.

Without delving into this issue with him, Ning Chaoxi took out his portrait, unfolded it in front of him, picked up a pen and stuffed it into his hand, and said half-jokingly: "Chen Xun, you can help me sign it, another day you will be famous, this painting will definitely be very valuable." ”

Chen Xun looked at her with bright eyes, smiled helplessly, did not refuse her, picked up the pen and signed the word 'Chen Xun' in the lower right corner.

At dusk, the sun set, and a faint orange light appeared in the sky, Ning Chaoxi looked at the gradually sinking sky, and said to the people beside him: "Chen Xun, let's go back." ”

"Hmm." Chen Xun squatted down and packed up his painting tools.

Ning Chaoxi also squatted down to help him, a pen on the drawing board was accidentally knocked down and rolled down to her feet, she reached out to pick it up, Chen Xun's hand also happened to reach over, the warm fingertips touched the back of her hand, Ning Chaoxi suddenly trembled, and her heart beat rapidly.

She lowered her head and wanted to retract her hand, but the whole hand was held in the next second, Ning Chaoxi was stunned, and quickly raised her eyes to look at him.

Chen Xun didn't look at her, held her hand casually and lifted it up, picked up the pencil on the ground, put it back in his painting box, and then let go of her hand.

There was still a warm touch in his palm on the back of his hand, Ning Chaoxi put his hand behind him, lowered his head, and suddenly a layer of crimson appeared on his cheeks, like the sunset on the horizon.

Chen Xun put away the drawing board, turned his back to her, and his ears were red.

They put away their things and went to the bus stop near the central square to wait for the bus, the two of them were silent all the way, even Ning Chaoxi, who talked a lot on weekdays, was rarely quiet, until the bus home drove to the station, she whispered: "The car is coming." ”

"Hmm." Chen Xun said.

There were a lot of passengers on the train at this station, and after a while, the empty carriage was filled with people, Ning Chaoxi found a vacant seat and stood up, holding the handrail in his hand, Chen Xun stood beside her, and there was a subtle feeling between the two from just now, neither of them spoke first, nor did they look at each other.

The bus passed several bus stops one after another, more and more passengers got on the bus, Ning Chaoxi was squeezed in a corner and couldn't move, the vehicle turned a slight way, her body fell backwards, and there was a strong and powerful arm behind her to support her in time, hoop on her slender waist, and did not let go after the bus ran smoothly.

Chen Xun stood silently behind her, using his body to help her make a small space, his arms slightly wrapped around her waist, and he saw Ning Chaoxi's rosy cheeks as soon as he lowered his eyes.

His eyes darkened, the expression on his face loosened, and he pursed his lips in pleasure.

It was also the first time he found that the girl's waist was so soft and slender, and his hand was on her lower back, not daring to exert force, for fear that he would hurt her with too much force.

The warm skin was close to each other through the fabric, and the two young hearts were beating irrepressibly, and they didn't dare to say anything to each other.

After a few more stops, the number of people on the train was reduced, Chen Xun stood back beside her, he withdrew his hand around her thin waist, and spread his palm towards the hand hanging by her side.

A silent gesture of invitation.

Ning Chaoxi hesitated for a few seconds, blushing and putting his hand in his warm palm, Chen Xun closed his fingers to hold her soft little hand.

Ning Chaoxi still lowered his head, looked at his toes, the temperature of his cheeks was hot, and moved his steps slightly, moving a little closer to him.

Chen Xun noticed her movement, and as soon as he looked down, he saw that she was very close to him, and instantly understood her careful thoughts, with a gentle smile in his eyes, and his hands clenched tightly.

After getting out of the car, Chen Xun took her hand and walked forward, until after crossing the road at the intersection, Ning Chaoxi withdrew his hand, the sunset spread in the sky, and the red light shrouded her face with a layer of luster, she raised her eyes to look at him, and the light in her pupils shone in the reflection of the setting sun: "I'm home." ”

Her voice was soft, and there was a silky soft taste, Chen Xun felt as if there were cat's claws gently scratching in his heart, a little itchy, and a little heartwarming.

Suddenly, she was nostalgic for the temperature of her palm, and after she withdrew her hand, Chen Xun felt that her palm was empty.

Ning Chaoxi turned around and wanted to leave, but she remembered something and paused, she touched the ground with her hands behind her back and her toes, and said, "Chen Xun, you haven't told me happy birthday today." ”

Chen Xun stepped forward and rubbed the top of her soft head, and the corners of his lips raised a trace of warmth.

"Happy birthday, morning and evening."

Ning Chaoxi smiled, her eyes were dancing with a bright light, which reminded Chen Xun of the bright warmth on the horizon when the morning sun was rising.

At that moment, it warmed my heart.
