"Are you alright?"

Li Shi asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's okay."

He Yaru hurriedly pretended to be calm, elegantly picked up the phone from the ground, and quickly replied to Wu Yuan with a series of (angry) emojis.

The heartbeat skyrocketed to one hundred and fifteen in an instant.

Li Shi politely withdrew his gaze when she bent down to pick up her phone, and waited for her to sit back in the chair before continuing: "Sister He, do you want to have a safe first, or do you wear it directly?" ”

He Yaru dialed a number, hung up after a few simple words, heard Li Shi's words, and quickly looked at the jewelry box on the desk, the crystal clear jade bracelet was really beautiful and dazzling, she picked it up, and put it on her wrist, looked left and right with both hands, admired it for a while, and then looked up: "I'll wear it tonight, and then put it in the safe before going out tomorrow, I really like this bracelet." ”

Li Shi nodded: "Okay, Sister He, then let's talk about the public welfare exhibition now." ”

"Okay."

He Yaru's expression became serious, she took out a document on her mobile phone, opened it, and introduced the details of the public welfare exhibition and her current preparation progress to Li Shi.

"Regarding the charity exhibition, the general process in my mind is like this: first unite several public welfare funds, publicize the exhibition, and then hold an auction."

……

"That's roughly it, thirty-one calligraphers other than you have been contacted, and there are currently nineteen who have agreed to participate, and the rest are also advancing, and I asked the people in my office to find a planning company in Shanghai."

The office that Sister He is talking about is an office dedicated to helping her manage a part of her wealth and resources, similar to that kind of family office.

In this regard, Wu Yuan told him before,

"Hmm... The battle was huge. ”

After listening to Sister He, especially the people she introduced, Li Shi suddenly had more ideas in his heart, and felt that with so many resources, if he only held a public welfare exhibition, it seemed a bit of a waste, maybe he could do more, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.

After He Yaru finished speaking, seeing Li Shi deep in thought, he asked, "What's wrong with Teacher Li?" Is there anything wrong with my thoughts? ”

Li Shi shook his head: "No, it's just that I have some new ideas, but I don't know what to say for a while, so I don't care about it for now." ”

Looking at the temperamental lady opposite, Li Shi thought to himself: Sister He will be regarded as both my art manager and investor in the future, and with her energy, it will definitely play a great role in promoting my works and calligraphy style and concept. Although the artistic height of my work is there, and the investment will not be lost, and it may even be profitable, I am still not well-known in the art collecting market, and she does it not for any return, but more because she likes my calligraphy, and as a student and friend...... We can't let my friend just help and give, I should also do something for her, which can be regarded as a return.

He Yaru saw that Li Shi was deep in thought again, and thought that he was continuing to think about the problem that had not been clarified, so he didn't speak again, and continued to admire the beautiful bracelet on his wrist while secretly observing him.

"I have to say that this Mr. Li is just a little handsome at first glance, but after looking at it for a long time, the more he looks at it, the more flavorful he becomes, which is the temperament of a person with knowledge and artistic accomplishment. And he looks serious...... Especially those eyes, as if I had never seen such clear but deep eyes in other men, staring at it, it was like staring at that kind of deep sea. ”

Although I have known Li Shi for a long time.

But it was also the first time for Sister He to take such a close look and observe the quiet Li Shi.

Looking at it, she suddenly understood Wu Yuan's obsession with this person.

"What's more, Xiaoyuan also said that he ......"

I don't know if it was because I had been alone in the empty room for many years, it had been too long, or because of the influence of Wu Yuan's woman, the dignified lady thought about it, and her eyes couldn't help but follow her thoughts three ways.

At this moment, Li Shi on the opposite side suddenly smiled and asked, "Sister He, how are you doing in "Beauty Bath" recently?" Bring it, I'll show it to you. ”

He is a particular person and will never treat people who are good to him.

It's just that he just thought about it and found that he didn't seem to have any good things to repay Sister He-that the essence of beauty and health preservation is like a holy medicine for women, but that thing Li Shi will not give away at will.

After thinking about it, since Sister He deliberately recognized herself as a calligraphy teacher in order to learn beauty calligraphy, it is also an excellent reward to work hard to teach her calligraphy and make great progress in her calligraphy level.

"Huh?!"

He Yaru relieved herself, she didn't expect Li Shi to suddenly ask about this, she was a little embarrassed, and her voice couldn't help lowering: "That, Mr. Li, you also know that I was busy before, Xiaoyuan should have told you, in addition to dealing with the funeral, I also have to sort out some assets, and recently I want to show up this public welfare exhibition, so ......"

Li Shi couldn't help but put away his smile: "So you haven't practiced calligraphy recently?" ”

"Hmm."

He Yaru sneered, and her voice lowered again. In the face of Li Shi's inquiry, she suddenly had a sense of helplessness that she didn't do homework during the summer vacation and was caught and checked by the teacher at the beginning of the school year.

Li Shi shook his head slightly, thinking about the goal of making her calligraphy improve enough, and slightly took out the style of being a teacher, slightly solemn: "Sister He, although it is a fact that you have been busy recently, as your calligraphy teacher, I think it is necessary to remind you that if you really want to learn calligraphy well, you must persevere in practice, just like now, I still have to spare half an hour every day to read and practice calligraphy...... If you really don't have time, even if you practice every two days, or every three days, and write for 20 minutes to half an hour each time, it's fine. ”

He Yaru listened to his sincerity, and even had a taste of "bitter heart" persuasion, and she was always proud, but she suddenly didn't dare to look at the eyes of the man opposite.

The two of them knew that what she said before was an excuse, even if they were busy, there would definitely be time for half an hour to practice calligraphy in two or three days.

She was lazy.

The noble lady slanted her eyes and said ashamedly, "Teacher Li, I know." ”

Li Shi didn't dare to look at himself at this moment, lowered his head slightly, and obviously knew that "he was wrong" Sister He, couldn't help but reach out and touch his chin.

What does it feel like for a noble and dignified beautiful woman to listen honestly and well-behaved in front of you?

Others Li Shi didn't know that at this moment, he wanted to stroke her jet-black hair like a cat.

Belch......

Li Shi controlled his left hand and did not raise it.

"So, you write a few words now, and I'll see."

He tidied up the desk, put out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, asked He Yaru to write a few words in front of him, and then gave serious advice.

Twenty minutes later, Wang Yuelan, who was watching TV in the living room, saw Sister He, and always felt that she was in a strange state, as if she was weak.

asked with concern, "Sister He, are you okay?" ”

He Yaru has a good impression of this gentle woman, but she is not familiar with it yet, she just wanted to smile politely, but she was not happy to vomit in her heart: "I just didn't expect that when I came to Tanzhou, I would be left a bunch of homework by Mr. Li, alas, I have to copy 225 words every day, and I have to take at least an hour and a half to do it." ”

Laughed or laughed, but it was a bitter smile.

However, Wang Yuelan, who was a clear bystander, always felt that behind Sister He's wry smile, there seemed to be an imperceptible happiness.

Maybe she didn't even notice it herself.

Wang Yuelan suddenly remembered a word she heard from Qiu Ye, what is it called?

In the study.

Li Shi, who decided to teach Sister He well, assigned her homework to copy "Beauty Bath" five times a day after returning to Shanghai, and stipulated that after handing it in for inspection once a week, let her go out to wash first.

He himself continued to collect and sort out all the information related to the "sword".

Tonight's compilation is the sword that has been included in the classic materials from ancient times to the present-

"Guanghuang Emperor's Chronicles" said: "Emperor Xuanyuan picked the bronze sword of the first mountain, inscribed it with astronomical ancient characters, the emperor collapsed, and buried Qiao Mountain." Five hundred years later, the landslide was empty, but the sword was still there, and once it was lost. ”

"Ancient and Modern Sword Records": "Qizi Taikang, reigned for twenty-nine years. The year is in Xinmao, and a bronze sword was cast in the spring of March, with eight sides long and three feet and two inches square. ”

"Wu Yue Spring and Autumn Period": "Wang Yi Cao showed Xue Candle, and the candle said: 'The five colors of the husband's sword are seen together, and the Miao Cao is dark and lightless, and its light is lost, and its god is dead'. ”

"The Biography of Zhang Jing'er in Southern History": "I have to open a mansion and look at the sword." The speaker said, 'There is still a lot of banlan next to my car. ’”

……

"Xuanyuan Sword, Xia Ge Sword, Tengkong Sword, Kunwu Sword, Zhanlu Sword, Tai'a Sword...... Whether it is a mythological figure or an important historical figure, there are almost all records of the existence of the sword around you. ”

"Sword and jade are indeed indispensable cultural symbols in the context of our civilization."

Considering that there were guests at home, and that he would take He Yaru to the surrounding areas of Tanzhou tomorrow, Li Shi did not organize the materials in the study until late, studied for an hour, and came out of it.

When I went to the living room, I found that there was no one.

Even Wang Yuelan was not there.

He walked to the door of the guest bedroom, saw that the door was closed, and thought that Sister He was probably tired, so she rested first, so she didn't knock on the door again, and walked directly to the master bedroom suite.

Push open the door and turn the cloakroom to the innermost bedroom on the left.

When she came in, Wang Yuelan was taking off her shoes and sitting on the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window looking at her phone.

The moment Li Shi saw her, he was a little disappointed, she had already taken a shower and changed out of the clothes he was hungry for in the evening.

But when he saw it clearly, that disappointment turned into surprise.

She was wearing a white light veil on her body at this time, only the key places inside were covered with a little bit of fabric, and under the light reflection, her skin was as white as snow, like a flawless jade figure, or the pure and yu kind!

Especially when Li Shi looked over, she put down her mobile phone, put her hands on her knees, and threw seductive autumn waves at him.

Li Shi strode over, picked her up, and enjoyed the night view outside the window together.

"When did Sister He go back to her room to rest?"

When he looks at the night view, he uses a lot of distractions.

Chatting about the sky, I still thought of the many ancient famous swords I had checked when I checked the information before, and imagined that I was holding the hilt of the sword, standing in the clouds, facing the darkness, or understatement, or condensing the strength of the whole body, one sword and one sword, like an antelope hanging its horns, and like being born out of nowhere, the deeper and deeper the thorns.

"She came out of the study and chatted with me for a while before going back to the guest room, after all, she was not familiar with each other, and she was a little embarrassed."

"Maybe I'm tired, I originally wanted to tell her about tomorrow's itinerary, forget it, let's wait until I wake up naturally tomorrow."

I don't know how long later, Li Shi was distracted and thought about the idea that came when he chatted with Sister He about the charity exhibition.

At that time, he didn't have much clue, but through the touch of his hands, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and suddenly became enlightened.

"Got it!"

"Since the public welfare exhibition has to use so many resources, it is simply going to be bigger, otherwise it will be a waste."

"However, the right amount is king, so that there can be more and richer harvests, and it is controllable."

Li Shi carried Wang Yuelan, who was already asleep, to the bed, then came out of the master bedroom, walked quickly to the study, took out his portable notes from the desk, flipped to the previous record of calligraphy and preaching, and checked it.

After a moment, he suddenly smiled.

"Well, the previous idea of doing a calligraphy variety show can actually be combined with this public welfare exhibition."

"In addition, even the calligraphy essay can be arranged as a follow-up."

After sorting out his thoughts, Li Shi's mood suddenly became very good.

He is confident that he will be able to be promoted from (major) to (major+) by studying in his study for as little as a few months or as long as half a year or a year.

And if the public welfare exhibition is carried out according to your own ideas, it is estimated that it will take several months, or even more than half a year to prepare.

Maybe the time was just right.

"Well, it's all my sister-in-law's inspiration and ideas for me, and I must reward it well; -)”

Li Shi put away his notebook, got up and walked out of the study, and returned to the master bedroom.

Not long after he entered through the door of the master bedroom, in the corridor outside, the door of the guest room was suddenly opened, and a graceful figure came out with a water glass, went to the dining room and poured half a glass of water, and after drinking, poured another half a glass, and then walked back.

When he came to the hallway, he suddenly stood still, with a puzzled expression on his face.

She looked up in the direction of the master bedroom, only to see that the door of the master bedroom was not closed tightly, and there was light coming out of the crack in the door, spilling on the wall and floor, faintly, like a pair of mandarin ducks playing in the water in autumn.

Ten minutes later, He Yaru closed the door of the guest room with her backhand, rubbed the sore calves she was standing on, and immediately picked up her mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Wu Yuan: "Woman, is your cousin-in-law really what you introduced to Teacher Li?" ”

After a while, Wu Yuan replied: "Hmm." ”

She thought for a moment and asked, "Then do you regret it now?" ”

This time, Wu Yuan's reply was a little slow.

After more than three minutes, the information came belatedly: "Alas, Sister Yaru, people who haven't experienced it may never understand." ”

He Yaru is a bit of a bed lover, but on the first night of Li Shi's place, she slept very well.

However, she chatted with Wu Yuan until late, so when she woke up and looked at the time, it was already half past nine in the morning.

After washing up, she came to the living room, but found Li Shi waiting for her. (End of chapter)
