Chapter 772: In That Case, Quickly Pack Our Things. We Will Also…
Before they ate, Liu Ran took the two paintings over to Ye Yang and the others to see. He was so excited it was as if he were the one who had painted them.
Dongfang Ming laughed. “It’s a skill I’ve practiced since I was young, it isn’t worth mentioning.”
He didn’t think it was really that impressive. Anyone who practiced since they were young would also have the same skills.
“But one still needs natural talent. Otherwise, how could the paintings look so lifelike? Of course, together with the talent the heavens gave you, you definitely also worked very, very hard so you don’t need to be so modest!” Liu Duo said very surely with a smile while she ate.
A person’s skills, no matter if they started learning them since they were young, or learned them when they were older, still required a massive amount of effort and natural talent!
“Sis is right. Uncle, stop being so modest. Those are praises that you deserve!” Liu Ran smiled very innocently.
Liu Duo and the others were provoked into laughter when they heard such adult-like words coming from Liu Ran. Of course, Ye Yang and Ye Mo were not included.
Dongfang Ming chatted with Liu Duo and the others for a while after lunch before they left for town.
“My lady, I saw Ming Yan packing their things. They might have gone to Mrs. Ye’s house to say goodbye in the late morning and I think they might be leaving for the capital.”
Wang Xiangyun seemed to have gotten much thinner recently. When she heard Dongfang Ming was going back to the capital, she immediately became vigorous. “In that case, quickly pack our things. We will also…”
As she was speaking, she didn’t know why but she suddenly stopped and looked out the window. She started spacing out and didn’t speak, seemingly distracted.
Little Tian saw her this way and wanted to speak but didn’t and just stood at the side. She looked at her lady’s perfect side profile and also started to space out…
Some time passed as such and, while looking through the window, Wang Xiangyun saw Ming Yan busily going in and out downstairs. She suddenly said, “Little Tian, go and get the thing we prepared a few days ago, I want to use it!”
When Little Tian heard her, she widened her eyes and was shocked. She never would’ve thought she would suddenly say this.
“My lady…” She opened her mouth and wanted to advise her lady not to do this but Wang Xiangyun interrupted her.
“While you are at it, go and block Ming Yan so he can’t come up to find Brother Ming.” Wang Xiangyun turned her head and spoke very seriously while looking at her.
She then got up and went into the room to tidy her appearance. However, she didn’t have any look of happiness on her face at all.
Little Tian looked at Wang Xiangyun’s back and saw how determined she was so she had no choice but to turn around to go get the thing. She prayed in her heart, I hope my lady can succeed this time. Otherwise…sigh…
She didn’t dare to imagine that, if she also failed this time, Dongfang Ming would definitely not hold back and let this go easily!
Dongfang Ming stood tall and straight as he stood by the window and looked at the scenery outside. In his heart, he felt reluctant to leave. However, he had to leave. Just as he let out a silent sigh, he heard the door being pushed open.
“Brother Ming, I know you will be going back to the capital later. I’m here to say goodbye.” Wang Xiangyun walked over with a saucer in hand.
She wasn’t preparing to leave right now. If this succeeded, she would leave with Dongfang Ming. Otherwise, she would leave another day.
Dongfang Ming frowned when he heard her voice. He didn’t turn around and continued to stand where he was, ignoring her.
In response to Dongfang Ming ignoring her, Wang Xiangyun acted like she didn’t notice. She put the saucer down on the table, picked up a cup of tea, and walked over. “Brother Ming, have a sip of herbal tea.”
