Chapter 387 - You guys got married? (1/2)

”Is it?” Meekly smiling, Ethan Lu asked regarding the title of the art that caught his eye.

After putting pressure on the WW Group of Companies that nearly broke them until they almost declared bankruptcy, and then lifted his punishment towards the said company as he just wanted to teach Kevin Woo a lesson for disrespecting Lexi, he still kept a close watch on him.

During this one year and several months, Kevin Woo seemed to change and instead of involving himself in their family business, he chose a career that shook everyone to their core, to be an artist. Never in their years of being the ultimate playboys and party animals had Ethan Lu noticed that Kevin Woo was inclined of such things.

Or rather, it was not only him but everyone that knew Kevin Woo was just as shocked as Ethan Lu was. Who would have thought that this man had this side of him and his paintings emanated his feelings, his heart, and soul through it? Regardless of the shock, Ethan Lu was amazed that he appeared to be a completely changed person and was glad to find his equilibrium.

Staring at him from head to toe, right now, instead of a sequened tux that would make Kevin Woo stand out in a crowd, he was only wearing a plain and simple coat with a shirt and denim pants underneath. His usually clean brushed up hair had now grown longer to the point that he tied it in a bun with little strands of hair set loose on the side. Overall, Kevin Woo looked more mature in his appearance and by his tranquil temperament.

”Yeah…” After casting Ethan Lu a glance, Kevin Woo return his attention to the painting that has a memorable sentimental value in his heart. ”It is a story of a brotherhood of five different boys. It was a group that was formed in the most unexpected ways but then, even after being friends for a long time, there are still some parts of them that had remained hidden… or rather, the others failed to see.” Explaining the story behind the so-called painting, his eyes softened as a bittersweet smile plastered across his lips.

”They were once blissfully ignorant as each of them grew to be men. Though their colors changed through the years and their life had unexpected twists and turns, deep down, their friendship remained… it was not the same but, it was still there.” This time, Kevin Woo finished his summarized story of the thousand or more stories behind the artwork. Nevertheless, he already made his point.

”It's nice to see you.” Turning to see Ethan Lu's dashing side profile, the side of Kevin Woo's lips curled into a genuine smile.

”Mhmm…” Nodding while his eyes were locked on the painting that has sent more stories than what Kevin Woo explained, Ethan Lu slowly turned his head to his friend that changed a lot. Be it his way of clothing, the way he speaks, or his temperament, Kevin Woo truly seemed to be more mature now.

”I like it.” With a smile, Ethan Lu lowly muttered. ”Good to see you doing well too.” Placing a tap on Kevin Woo's shoulder, Ethan Lu added.
