Lu Zhuo smiled and walked over to pick up the painting. He glanced at her and said, “Jiaojiao, I really like this gift.”
“If you like it, then take it with you.” Xu Jiaojiao did not even raise her head. Her tone was extremely cold.
Lu Zhuo did not leave with the painting. Instead, he stood beside her and looked at her. Previously, he did not realize that she was so focused and alluring when she was drawing seriously.
Her skin was fair and delicate, and her sparkling eyes were fixed on the drawing board. Her focused look added a hint of charm to her.
As Lu Zhuo watched, his throat moved unconsciously.
Xu Jiaojiao noticed that he had not left yet, so she frowned and said, “Do you still have something to say? If there’s nothing else, can you leave now? Having someone nearby will affect my train of thought.”
Lu Zhuo came back to his senses and met her clear eyes. He smiled gently and said, “Alright, 1’11 leave first. I’ll visit you another day.”
With that, he picked up his painting and turned to leave the studio. As he closed the door, he could not help but look back.
Xu Jiaojiao used the end of the paintbrush in her hand to scratch the tip of her nose. She felt that he was really strange.
During the New Year’s Eve dinner, the Xu Family sat together happily. Old Madam Xu could not stay up late due to her old age. Not long after the New Year’s Eve dinner, she gave Xu Zhengyang and Xu Jiaojiao their New Year’s money and went back to her room to sleep.
Aunt Xia was preparing breakfast for tomorrow morning, and Xu Zhiming was sitting with his wife in front of the television watching a skit.
Xu Jiaojiao was watching the Spring Festival Gala with her parents when she suddenly caught a glimpse of Xu Zhengyang, who was about to sneak out of the house. She deliberately shouted, “Brother, where are you going during the New Year?”
Xu Zhengyang paused in the act of turning the doorknob. He turned around and glared at Xu Jiaojiao with a fake smile.
Xu Jiao jiao stuck out her tongue innocently.
Tian Fanghua asked worriedly, “That’s right. Why are you going out so late at night?”
“I’ve already made plans to celebrate New Year’s Eve with my friends,” Xu Zhengyang replied. “I’ll be back soon.”
“Mom, 1 also want to go out for some fresh air with Big Brother,” Xu Jiaojiao said in a sweet voice.
“Forget it. It’s so cold outside. Besides, 1 don’t know where your brother is going.” Tian Fanghua was worried about leaving her daughter to her unreliable son.
Xu Jiaojiao pouted. “Mommy, I’m begging you. Let me go.”
