Chapter 199 [Aquatic Products]

Regarding the matter of recruiting disciples, Lao Jiang felt that he had been tricked again by Chen Nuo, a puppy.

The instinct is to refuse, but...

Looking at the young junior Zhu Dazhi kneeling in front of him, he has not had much contact with him in the past two days, but he still feels like a simple-minded and straightforward child.

What's more, this was brought by Chen Nuo to become a disciple!

Chen Nuo and Zhang Linsheng came all the way to HK to follow him this time, and yesterday they came out to help him compete in the ring. Well, it was Zhang Linsheng who mainly took action.

But Lao Jiang dared to conclude that the idea must have come from Chen Nuo!

In this case, this sentiment will be difficult to refute.

Sighing in his heart, Lao Jiang glanced at Chen Nuo and looked at Zhu Dazhi who was kneeling in front of him.

Suddenly something moved in my heart.

Huh?

This scene looks a bit familiar!

When Zhang Linsheng was called by Chen Nuo to apprentice with him, wasn't it the same scene?

Looks very familiar!

Tokyo.

In the middle school studio, Xicheng Xun sat in front of the drawing board, holding a pencil tip for sketching in his hand.

The girl's long, straight black hair was simply tied into a ponytail, her eyes fixed on the drawing board in front of her.

In the painting, there is the face of a handsome young man.

Doggy smile...

Pooh!

It’s a kind and righteous smile!!

Slowly putting down the pencil, the girl stretched out her finger, lightly touched the young man's face on the drawing board, and carefully touched the eyes.

After a few seconds, the girl's scoffing eyes turned into annoyance, and she muttered in a low voice:

"Damn it, you didn't say goodbye to me when you left! You just left me in the hospital and never came back..."

Hearing the sound of footsteps beside him, Xicheng Xun immediately put down his hand. Turning his head, he saw the teacher in the studio walking behind him with his hands behind his back.

The teacher is a middle-aged uncle, and he wears a peaked cap on his head, as if a painter doesn't look like a painter without wearing a peaked cap.

"Xun-chan, you are making rapid progress. This portrait is very vivid." The teacher looked at it carefully for a while: "It's just that the shadows in some places were not handled well..."

As he said that, the teacher picked up the pencil as if to help Xicheng Xun make some changes to the portrait.

"Ah! Please don't!"

Xicheng Xun grabbed the pencil, held it firmly, and then hurriedly said: "Teacher, please let me finish my work by myself!"

The teacher was stunned for a moment. Although he was a little surprised, he didn't say anything.

It is normal for people who draw to have some strange habits. Many children who learn to draw don't like others to modify their paintings.

"Then, just keep working hard." The teacher smiled and said: "Xun-chan, you are very talented in painting. It has only been a few days, and your portraits are already pretty good. You can keep working hard in the future and on the road of painting.

There should be a future.”

Xicheng Xun took a deep breath, then stood up and bowed to the teacher.

"Teacher, thank you for your kindness. However, I will not come to learn painting from tomorrow on."

"Ah? Why? You are very talented..."

"……terribly sorry."

Xicheng Xun turned around silently, rolled up the portrait, stuffed it into his own painting tube and carefully carried it on his back, then bowed to the teacher again and said goodbye.

The teacher had a regretful expression on his face: "It's a pity, it's really a pity."

Xicheng Xun was about to leave when he suddenly couldn't help but glance at the teacher.

"Um...teacher, there is a question that I have always been curious about. I wonder if I can ask you."

"What do you want to ask?"

"Your hat." Xicheng Xun looked at the peaked cap on the teacher's head: "It's summer now. It's such a hot day, isn't it hot to wear it?"

"..."

After walking out of the studio, Xicheng Xun slowly left the school along the roadside, stepping on the shadows of trees on the ground under the afternoon sun.

Well, I... seem to be becoming more and more rude in my speech. I learned it from that hateful guy!

Before I met him again, I was known as a gentle and obedient girl with excellent morals and academics!

Summer vacation is not until September, so there is still some time left. Xicheng Xun has chosen to study painting in the past few days.

But, you don’t have to study anymore tomorrow.

Anyway, the only reason why I learned painting was to draw a portrait of that guy.

After all...there are no photos left.

Carrying the painting tube on his back, he walked all the way home. When passing by the Jiangchuan Dojo, Xicheng Xun cautiously took a look inside. Sure enough, there were very few people there.

The curator was disgraced after being beaten into a pig's head by A Xiu. Many students must have quit.

However, when he reached the convenience store at the intersection, Xicheng Xun stopped.

This is the place where I treated A Xiu to some ice cream that day after beating up the curator.

Thinking of this, Xicheng Xun felt a little sad.

There was a crisp ringtone from behind, and then a nice girl's voice.

"Kaoru-chan!"

Xicheng Xun turned around and looked at the person who came, a girl riding a bicycle, wearing a summer dress. She was a little fat, with a round face, but very cute appearance, and short hair that reached her ears.

"Yu-chan?" Xicheng Xun smiled.

This is a classmate with whom I have a good relationship in school.

"Xun-chan, I was just going to your house to find you."

"What's the matter?"

"It's about the school trip!" The round-faced girl stopped her bicycle and stood on the roadside, smiling: "We are organizing people to make plans together. Do you want to go to Kyoto with us?"

Xicheng Xun thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I have no interest in Kyoto."

"That's right." The round-faced girl sighed: "I've been to Kyoto twice, and it's really not interesting."

After thinking about it, the round-faced girl's eyes suddenly lit up: "Otherwise, let's go abroad!"

"ha?"

"The school also has a study trip project to China, and the cost is not high. I heard that a friendly school in China is responsible for half of the cost."

Xicheng Xun's heart skipped a beat!!

Although it was not recognized by the other party, Xicheng Xun could roughly judge based on the conversation between the two: He should be Chinese!

Go to...his country...

The fire rising in my heart could no longer be suppressed.

Looking at Xicheng Xun's strange expression, the round-faced girl misunderstood and said slightly apologetically: "Ah, I'm sorry, Xun-chan, I forgot about your family's situation. Even if the cost is reduced by half, it won't be the same for you.

It's a very heavy burden.

Otherwise, we'd better go to a place closer.

I have carefully studied the school trip schedule published by the school. There are several domestic places that are very cheap. We can go to Nagoya..."

"No! Just go to China!" Xicheng Xun suddenly said loudly.

The round-faced girl was startled: "Ah? Then...the issue of cost..."

"It doesn't matter, I have money." Xicheng Xun nodded without hesitation.

Money is no longer a problem for Xicheng Xun.

A few days after Axiu left, tens of millions of yen were received in her bank account.

This money is enough to cover her future college tuition and living expenses until she graduates from college.

"Where are you going on your study trip to China?"

"There are only two cities, the capital of China and Shanghai." The round-faced girl smiled and said, "But it's already pretty good."

"It's really good. These are the two largest cities in China."
