Then Gu Lin had called, speaking earnestly, almost saying that if she didn\'t go, it would become one of the great regrets of his mother\'s life.

Jing Yi found it a bit amusing and agreed to go.

Jing Yi linked arms with Lin Ruiqing, "Mom, it turns out Mrs. Gu is an artist? Is she the cool and aloof type?"

Jing Yi was quite curious about people with artistic identities, feeling that those who studied art all had a unique aura about them.

Cool and aloof?

Lin Ruiqing smiled, recalling her impression of Shen Tu. Although she hadn\'t interacted deeply with Shen Tu, from what she could tell, she probably wasn\'t as Jing Yi described.

"Mrs. Gu is quite friendly, you\'ll see when you meet her."

As they chatted, they arrived at the entrance of the exhibition hall.

Shen Tu, who had been lingering at the door, brightened up and came out to greet them.

"Mrs. Jing"

Lin Ruiqing nodded with a smile, "Mrs. Gu"

Shen Tu\'s gaze shifted to Jing Yi beside her, her smile deepening, "This must be Yi Yi, finally meeting you in person!"

If she had known earlier, she would have skipped that art association meeting during Lin Ruiqing\'s birthday no matter what, regretting missing the chance to meet Jing Yi.

Shen Tu looked at Jing Yi with a beaming smile, the fondness in her eyes quite obvious. Jing Yi felt a bit overwhelmed but still smiled politely.

"Hello, Mrs. Gu." She had thought Gu Lin was exaggerating, but it seemed his mother really did like her quite a bit.

"No need to be so formal. I heard you know Gu Lin, why don\'t I have him show you around?"

People of the same age should be more comfortable talking to each other, and moreover, she meant not just Gu Lin, but also Shen Huaichu beside him.

This was included in the package.

However, he shouldn\'t be so awkward as to not know how to interact with girls, right?

Shen Tu expressed some concern.

Jing Yi glanced at Lin Ruiqing, who gently patted her hand and said with a smile, "It\'s alright, go have fun with your friends. I\'ll chat with Mrs. Gu for a while."

"Xiao Lin, Huaichu, come show Yi Yi around," Shen Tu called out behind her.

Jing Yi only then realized that Shen Huaichu was there too. She nodded obediently, said goodbye to Shen Tu, and followed Gu Lin and the others into the exhibition hall.

Shen Tu watched their retreating figures, especially Jing Yi and Shen Huaichu, unable to contain the joy in her eyes.

Lin Ruiqing took in Shen Tu\'s expression, her eyes flickering slightly, thinking that her previous guess might have been correct - Shen Tu was here for her son, with Jing Yi in mind.

After entering the exhibition hall, Jing Yi curiously looked around.

The entire hall was spacious and quiet, permeated with a calm and unique artistic atmosphere.

The white walls were smooth as mirrors, with soft, warm lighting around the paintings, highlighting the brilliance of the exhibits.

In the center of the hall, rows of meticulously created paintings were arranged, colorful and seemingly very healing. Each painting was like a story, narrating the emotions and thoughts of the creator.

"Gu Lin, did Mrs. Gu paint this too?!"

Jing Yi stood in front of a painting, her eyes wide open, filled with surprised light.

In the fading light of dusk, an oil painting of a sunset over the sea slowly unfolded. In the center of the image, a faint orange gradually disappeared from the horizon. The sky\'s colors transitioned from deep blue to light blue, then to pale purple, and finally to golden yellow.

She loved this painting, even using it as her wallpaper for a while.

"What? Did you think she was just hosting an exhibition for fun?" Gu Lin\'s smile carried a hint of pride. "At least in the domestic art world, she\'s quite famous."

Jing Yi was still looking at the painting with surprise and admiration.

Gu Lin had guessed right - she had thought it was just a wealthy lady\'s pastime, but it turned out she was a real artist!

Most of Shen Tu\'s exhibited works were oil paintings, as colorful as they appeared at first glance, mainly depicting the colors of nature.

Jing Yi murmured with slightly parted lips, "Your mother must have a brilliant and warm world in her heart." Shen Huaichu quietly watched her, his eyes revealing a barely perceptible tenderness.

Gu Lin smiled, "I should note that down and tell her later."

As he spoke, Gu Lin noticed Shen Huaichu, half a step behind, watching Jing Yi.

Now was his best chance to make a move!

Gu Lin quickly smiled and said, "Um, Jing Yi, let my brother entertain you for a bit. I need to go take care of something."

Jing Yi didn\'t think much of it and nodded, continuing to walk to the side to look at the paintings, with Shen Huaichu leisurely following behind her.

"Shen Huaichu, your aunt is really amazing!"

"If you like, I can ask her to paint one for you."

Jing Yi turned to look at him, her round eyes very lively, "Wouldn\'t that be too much trouble for Mrs. Gu? Is it convenient?"

The corner of Shen Huaichu\'s mouth lifted slightly. If Jing Yi had asked any later, he would have thought she really didn\'t want to trouble anyone.

He nodded, "It\'s convenient."

Jing Yi caught the teasing look in Shen Huaichu\'s eyes, but she didn\'t mind. It would be a pity to miss out because of politeness.

Besides, it wouldn\'t hurt to use Shen Huaichu\'s influence.

"But if it\'s difficult for Mrs. Gu, then forget it."

His aunt would probably be happy to, "She likes you very much."

Jing Yi was puzzled, not understanding why Shen Huaichu suddenly mentioned this. Shen Huaichu added, "So she won\'t refuse."

This was already the third person to say something like this to her. Jing Yi was quite curious.

"Why does Mrs. Gu like me so much?"

Shen Huaichu gazed directly at Jing Yi, "I have the same question." His deep eyes hid barely detectable emotions, making him seem different from usual.

Jing Yi looked into those eyes, her heart suddenly beating a little faster. She quickly averted her gaze, her tone becoming a bit flustered.

"What\'s there to question? Of course, it\'s because this young lady is quite likable!"

That face was really too deceptive! Jing Yi, don\'t let him bewitch you!

Jing Yi turned her head, pretending to continue appreciating the paintings, her mind frantically trying to stay clear.

A glimmer of amusement flashed in Shen Huaichu\'s eyes, "Since Miss Jing knows how likable she is, what else is there to ask?"

Jing Yi glared at him. She was trying to have a serious conversation, but he kept going off on tangents.

Seeing that she was a bit annoyed, Shen Huaichu smoothly changed the subject, "I haven\'t congratulated Miss Jing on winning second place in the competition yet."

Not wanting to be outdone, Jing Yi deliberately teased, "Such empty words of congratulation? The mighty CEO of Huarui Group seems rather ordinary in his generosity."

"How can you call it empty words? Didn\'t I already promise Miss Jing to ask for a painting?"

Shen Huaichu seemed unaware of the gentleness in his voice.
