He Ruojin smiled lightly: "I won't pick it anymore."
Lin Banxia grabbed his finger and moved her lips hesitantly, wanting to say something, but He Ruojin told her, "It doesn't matter, this is fine."
He wanted a painting that he could keep by his side. He could not let his current appearance tarnish Lin Banxia's gentle and lovely appearance.
The old gentleman gave He Ruoxin a steady look and said nothing more.
While painting, Lin Banxia followed the old gentleman's instructions, held He Ruoxin's arm in a dignified manner, and leaned slightly against his shoulder, showing a very gentle and elegant posture.
They stayed at the old gentleman's house until near dusk. The old gentleman said that the painting would have to dry for another day before they could come and pick it up.
So, He Ruojin took Lin Banxia to find an inn to stay in the city, and agreed to pick up the painting together tomorrow.
During dinner, Lin Banxia was rarely excited. From time to time, she would ask He Ruoxin whether she smiled ugly when the old man was painting, and whether her sitting posture would not look good...
He Ruojin looked at her and said softly: "They are all very beautiful."
After hearing this, Lin Banxia lowered her head in confusion, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.
I'm really happy. A few fingers were wrapped around the cuffs, like a little rabbit. She was obviously very excited and wanted to jump around, but her own cultivation made her restrain herself and she could only secretly be happy in her heart.
He Ruojin booked two rooms, and he lived next door to her. Before going to bed, He Ruojin asked the waiter to drink soup, knocked on the door, and came in to ask her if she was cold.
Lin Banxia shook her head and said it was okay, but He Ruojin was still worried. He handed Mrs. Tang to her to keep warm and asked her if she had taken medicine.
"Eat, what I just ate."
Lin Banxia had just taken off the hat on her head, and her hair looked a little messy hanging down on her small ears. He Ruojin came over, lowered his head and silently helped her comb her hair, placing his fingers on the ends of her hair. For a while, he was reluctant to leave, but kept pursed his thin lips.
"What's wrong?" Lin Banxia couldn't help but raise her head and look at He Ruojin standing in front of her.
He Ruojin looked down at her, her eyes were deep and faint. After a while, she moved her lips and said slowly: "I really want to kiss you."
Hearing this, Lin Banxia's ears turned slightly red. She probably never thought that He Ruoxin would say such words to her in person, but she didn't know how to answer. She just felt very shy and her eyelashes trembled. He swallowed nervously and said, "Okay... kiss."
When He Ruochen heard this, she laughed very low and tenderly, as if she was so cute by the person in her eyes.
But he did not kiss Lin Banxia.
He just slowly pressed her head into his arms and closed his eyes slightly. For the first time, he could clearly hear his own breathing, which was difficult and bitter.
He didn't dare to kiss.
"Lin Banxia."
"Well..." Her voice sounded short and timid, and she could not conceal her emotion.
"You should sleep well alone."
She said yes obediently, then grabbed his soft sleeves and said, "Shall we go pick up the painting together tomorrow morning? I really want to see that painting."
He Ruojin said yes, then said goodbye to her and left her room.
Lin Banxia listened to him and slept well.
But when she woke up early the next morning, she found that He Ruojin was missing.
