The next day was Valentine's Day.

He Xiyan didn't have classes all morning today.

She took the easel out of the cabinet and carried it on her back, with some paints and brushes in her hands.

She hadn't been outdoors painting landscapes for a long time, but today the weather was sunny and blue and cloudy, and she remembered to go to the banks of the Namu River to paint.

She loved the scenery along the Namu River, which in her eyes was the most beautiful place in Night City.

When He Xiyan came here, she found that it was not as lively as the last time she came. The cold weather and the strong winds along the river meant that few citizens stayed by the river.

However, she likes such a quiet environment, which is too noisy and affects her mood for painting.

She set up her easel in a spacious space and prepared the brushes and paints one by one.

Painting landscape paintings, unlike sketches and colored pencils, pay more attention to methods and skills, and mostly render and depict from far to near, from shallow to deep, from virtual to real.

He Xiyan painted the sky first, because the colors and clouds of the sky are ever-changing, and some of them need to be captured by memory. After that, she painted a row of houses under the sky, townhouses, the most luxurious villa area in Night City. Finally, she painted the river in the near distance, then the close-up, the willow trees on the bank, the stone steps, and the ......

When she reached the stone steps, He Xiyan suddenly stopped writing, she stood up and looked at the couple sitting on the stone steps, more than ten meters away, she could only see their backs. The boy hugged the girl into his arms, and the two hugged each other tightly, and their figures were stretched long in the sun. The girl looked happy and took out her phone to take a selfie, while next to her was a gift from the boy, a bouquet of flowers and a pink gift box containing something I don't know what it was.

He Xiyan pursed her lips suddenly, a faint smile overflowed from the corner of her mouth, and a strange light flashed in her eyes. She suddenly envied them, envious of their sweetness and beauty at this time.

Well...... I don't know when she will be able to be with the people she loves.

Did he receive his own gift?

Will you be surprised, will you like it, and will you contact yourself?

The envy in He Xiyan's eyes turned into expectation.

Ever since she met him, she has always had an expectation in her heart, looking forward to the day when she can approach his life and enter his heart.

Of course, what she was expecting more at this time was that he would contact her.

She took a deep breath and drew the intimate couple by the river into her own painting, still with a shallow smile on her lips as she put her pen down.

"Bless you!"

She said to herself.

The painting took her nearly three hours, and when she was done, she had to rush back to school because there were still two professional classes at two o'clock in the afternoon.

It was too late to take the painting tools back to the apartment, so He Xiyan directly picked up these things and went to the teaching building.

Although many of her classmates would skip class from time to time, some even skipped class often. But she has never missed any teacher's class, even some unimportant public class.

She cherishes every opportunity to study, this is the university she has worked hard for more than ten years to be admitted to, and she has taken out loans and borrowed money to pay for her tuition. If she is absent from school, how can she be worthy of herself and those who have helped her.

He Xiyan came to the classroom, and because she came late, she had to sit in the back row again.

As soon as she sat down, she was stopped by her former roommate Han Danni.
