May 2nd, one in the afternoon.
City S, Ruoyun Pavilion.
This was a gallery located in the east of the city. In addition to exhibitions, it also handled art appraisals, auctions, and other related businesses.
On this day, a young man in a black casual suit came to Ruoyun Pavilion. This person was none other than the mystery novelist, Mr. Feng Bujue …
"I need to buy a ticket …" After Feng Bujue paid for the ticket and entered the gallery, he grumbled to himself. "Even though I had a bad feeling about this before I left the house, the ticket price of one hundred and eighty is already more expensive than most movies … Speaking of which, normally, no one would arrange their first meeting at an art gallery …"
Brother Jue and Passing Rain agreed to meet at 1: 10 am. As a man, he naturally arrived a little early.
[Since I'm already here, I might as well look around. Standing there like this is indeed quite suspicious … In this short period of time, the security bro has already glanced at me several times, intentionally or unintentionally.] Feng Bujue, [That kind of gaze is either suspicious or trying to strike up a conversation … Hmm … I have to do something quickly.]
He put his hands in his pockets and walked inside as if nothing had happened. Then he stopped in front of a rather wide painting. [Okay, no one is paying attention to me anymore. It's actually quite simple … I just have to pretend to look at the painting. Hmm … As long as I'm in step with the others, I won't be …]
"Do you like his works too?" A strange voice suddenly came from beside him.
Brother Jue saw an uncle in a woolen sweater from the corner of his eyes. He looked to be in his forties and looked quite kind.
[Hey … Who is "he"? Who are you, uncle?] Feng Bujue didn't expect that someone would strike up a conversation with him. He repeatedly complained in his heart, but on the surface, he still stuttered and replied, "Ah … Ah … It's okay."
"His works are very good. There hasn't been such a daring artist in Russia for a long time." The uncle continued with interest.
"Oh … So, this is the work of a Russian artist … In any case, he is either a coward or a chauffeur …" Brother Jue quickly moved his eyes to the LCD screen next to the painting. He glanced at the description of the work and said, "Ah … Impressionist. Everyone will have a different opinion when they look at it."
"Hehe … That's true," the uncle said. "Young man, what do you think this painting is trying to express?"
[This means that this "driver" is either drunk or color-blind to the point that he can't see the traffic lights clearly … Something like this … If you give me a hundred and eighty dollars, I can draw ten of them for you. Just throw Arthas into the paint and let it roll around on the drawing paper and you'll get the job done.]
"Maybe he's trying to say that … the damage caused by alcohol and marijuana is irreversible," Feng Bujue couldn't help but complain.
The uncle was stunned for two seconds before laughing out loud. "Hahaha …"
Then he laughed for a whole minute …
[Hey, hey … Is it that funny? Even if you get the joke, you don't have to laugh to this extent. So many people are looking over here! Speaking of which, should I leave this guy behind and leave quietly … Security, you guys are choosing to ignore him at this time. You should at least come over and say something like 'please don't make a scene'!]
Of course, the security guards wouldn't come over … Because this uncle was the owner of Ruoyun Pavilion. His name was Li Feng, and he was a low-key businessman. In addition, he was also Ruo Yu's father.
"Why are you guys talking together?" Suddenly, Like Rain's voice came from behind Brother Jue.
Feng Bujue heard and turned around. It was the first time he saw Ruo Yu in the real world. Brother Jue didn't expect Like Rain's real appearance to be more beautiful than her in-game appearance. It could be said that her skin was as white as snow, her face was handsome, her beautiful eyes were full of hope, and she was lovely and moving. Her figure was even more graceful and graceful, and she was naturally beautiful. However, her temperament was still the same … There was a faint coldness that made it difficult for people to get close to her.
Today, Like Rain was wearing a black long-sleeved T-shirt and a pair of light-colored jeans. She was dressed plainly, without any accessories. She didn't have ear piercings, tattoos, and even her nails were cut short. Of course, this was her usual style. It seemed like she didn't care much about meeting Brother Jue.
"Eh? Why did you come out from the gallery? "
"This is my family's gallery," Like Rain replied.
"Huh?" Feng Bujue was stunned.
[So I just had to wait outside for you to come out?! Why did I buy a ticket to come in?!]
"Dad, what are you laughing at?" Like Rain asked her father who was laughing so hard.
"Haha … Haha …" Uncle Li took a few deep breaths and recovered. "Xiaoyu, this … this young man … Hahaha …" He wiped his tears. "Eh? Wait … You guys know each other? "
[That's my line! You're actually her dad! I was wondering why you were wearing a woolen sweater, so you came out from the gallery too!]
"Um … Hello, uncle." Feng Bujue said, "My name is Feng Bujue."
[I just blurted it out! Why did I have to say 'uncle'! Logically speaking, I should've called him 'uncle' or something … I accidentally fell into the atmosphere of an elementary school student going to play at a classmate's house …]
Uncle Li suddenly widened his eyes and stared at Feng Bujue's face. In the next second, he took three steps back and looked at Brother Jue from head to toe. Then he turned to his daughter and asked, "Is this your boyfriend?"
Like Rain still looked indifferent and replied calmly, "No." She paused, "Just a friend."
"Yes, yes, a normal friend …" Feng Bujue wanted to say something like that, but before he could finish, he felt a cold and sharp gaze on him … and that made him swallow the rest of the words that he was about to say.
[Hey … You can say 'just a friend', but I can't say 'just a friend' … What do you want …]
"Oh!" Uncle Li immediately took out his cell phone and without waiting for Feng Bujue's consent, he took several full-body and half-body photos of him.
Then, this middle-aged man, who was close to fifty years old, used his fingers like a gust of wind and lightning to operate his phone at an astonishing speed. Then, he dialed a number.
"Hello? Honey, did you get it? " After the call was connected, Uncle Li turned around happily and said into the phone, "It's our daughter's friend! Yes! A real boy! Yes, yes … He's quite handsome. Oh … Not really, but I finally have a friend! "
[Just how miserable is your life?! This is far beyond the level of social handicap … Even if it's me, it's not like I don't have any friends!]
"Okay, we'll talk about it when I get back." Uncle Li hung up the phone and turned around. His eyes were like torches and his face was solemn. "Little Feng, I'll leave my daughter to you …"
Like Rain shook her head and said, "Dad, don't say too much …"
"Haha … You, you're too polite," Feng Bujue replied with a hollow laugh.
"What's with that smile on your face?" Like Rain stared at Brother Jue.
[Hey! Your dad is so silly and cute. I'm helping you, but you keep glaring at me?]
…
Ten minutes later, Like Rain pulled Brother Jue to the street.
When they got there, she let out a long sigh of relief.
"Ah … I feel like I accidentally got some information that I shouldn't know … You're not going to kill me, are you?" Feng Bujue said weakly.
"It doesn't matter. You have no one to talk to," Like Rain said.
"Hmm … That's right. Little Bone is your cousin, so she should know. Then, there's an eighty percent chance that Xiao Tan already knows …" Feng Bujue speculated.
At the same time, behind the green belt across the street, two shadowy figures wearing sunglasses and caps were observing the situation here.
"I don't know why … but I feel a chill down my spine," Xiao Tan said. "They're not talking about me, are they?"
"Who knows … Sigh! If only I could read lips, "Laughing Soul said." I really want to know what they'll say when they're alone … "
"By the way … Won't they think we're stalkers?" Xiao Tan looked around anxiously.
"What's there to be afraid of? With a super beauty like me by your side, the chance of being misunderstood is zero," Laughing Soul replied.
"That's right, that's right … I can do anything bad with a super beautiful girl like you." Xiao Tan complained. "By the way, you're already twenty-two, and you still call yourself a beauty … Pfft …" Before he could finish, he was elbowed in the stomach.
