Chapter 7

Hmm. He merely glanced at it and continued reading.

She followed his gaze upward; it was a large glass canopy. Sunlight streamed in, creating a cylindrical area of illumination within the hall

It is somewhat coincidental that Xiao Lu used to enjoy doodling as well. Let the two children play together. Ye Qiaolu had previously attended a children's art class. She has a good grasp of colors; even when coloring haphazardly, the tones in her artwork are uniform and harmonious. After starting elementary school, with the introduction of homework, Ye Chengfeng did not want his daughter to be overburdened, so he did not arrange any additional classes.

Shi Yu Mei added a small bed in her own room

Upon entering the hall of the exhibition center, one is greeted by a large painting titled "A Leaf on a Solitary Boat" hanging on the wall

The tickets for the art exhibition were provided by Ye Chengfeng's business partner

Ye Jing quietly looked on, her lips pressed together

Ye Qiaolu recalled the teru teru bozu she had seen in "The Clever Ikkyu" and went to the large room to ask Ye Jing, "Do you have a ping pong ball"

"Little Green, do not learn from him." The longer one interacts with Ye Qiaolu, the more one feels that Ye Jing's character is a case of educational failure. A child who is too independent and mature too early becomes less endearing. Sometimes, she reminisces about the little boy who used to act cute towards her.

The leaf diameter is vague

At this moment, Luo Xi was directly frightened to tears, and in a moment of panic, he blurted out what was on his mind. "I want to marry a beautiful bride, I do not want a fat one"

He stood outside the beam of light, his body shrouded in a faint shadow, seemingly merging with the adjacent large waterfall painting

Ye Qiaolu believed that she would be able to play at the beautiful home for a very long time

Ye Qiaolu gazed at Ye Jing's silhouette. For a fleeting moment, his image became enigmatic in her heart. After all, it is quite remarkable that he could persist in such a hobby that made her feel drowsy for so long.

The female protagonist then lived a happy and fulfilling life with the male protagonist. The female protagonist said, "Bravely pursue true love. True love is invincible!"

Ye Jing felt that this prayer was quite unreliable. In the summer sun, where could there be warmth

Ye Qiaolu was delighted; she used a marker to draw two eyes and a mouth on the doll's face. Then she hung it on the balcony. She clasped her hands together and said, "I hope for a blue sky and warm sunshine tomorrow"

Ye Qiaolu's green eyes were wide open

Luo Xi was taken aback. He did not expect that his previous indifference could not sever her emotional ties. Looking again at the gazes of the boys examining him made him uneasy

Shi Yu Mei was momentarily stunned, her gaze becoming fixed.

She went back to watch that TV series

He glanced at the gloomy sky outside the window No

The foreign exchange capital in mainland China has not yet implemented free convertibility, and under the country's stability maintenance policies, the crisis is relatively minor

Ye Qiaolu became even more curious, "Why can you look for so long?" She thought he only liked to gaze at the tall trees

Zhang Chuan always wants to copy her homework, which is not the behavior of a good child

Shi Yu Mei came to her senses, pinching Ye Qiao Lu's small hand, "Let us go."

Thus, she regained her confidence

That is his hobby. Although it is referred to as a hobby, it is actually a form of visual training that developed as a habit during childhood. His depth perception is significantly better than that of the average person

It had been a while since Luo Xi had seen her, and at this moment, noticing her canine teeth had grown, he complimented her out of friendship, saying, "Xiao Luzi's teeth are so white"

Ye Qiaolu has recorded it

In the evening, Ye Qiao leaned out onto the balcony and suddenly noticed two patches of blush appearing on the cheeks of the sunny doll

Ye Qiaolu glanced again at "A Leaf in a Lonely Boat." At her tender age, she had yet to comprehend the solitude and despair depicted in the painting

The art exhibition, accessed through ticket inspection, is characterized by a rich Chinese aesthetic.

In the second half of 1997, the Asian financial crisis began, leading the economies of various countries into a severe recession

A few days later, the friends arranged to play games. Ye Qiaolu laughed and said, "I want to play the wedding game." She also pointed at Luo Xi, "I want to marry him"

Although Ye Qiaolu often plays with Ye Jing, they do not share any common interests

Ye Jing remained silent beside them. He did not want to concern himself with such childish antics, but recalled the advice given by Shi Yu Mei. He looked at the weeping girl and pressed his lips together

He is still standing there

That day he brought Ye Qiaolu over for dinner. After they finished eating, he tidied up the dishes and went into the kitchen, handing the ticket to Shi Yumei. "There is an art exhibition on Sunday, I won't have time to go, see if you can spare some time to check it out."

Ye Qiaolu finds it very reasonable

Ye Qiao Lu held Shi Yu Mei's hand. After looking at three or four art pieces, she noticed that Ye Jing had not caught up and curiously turned her head back.

At this time, his relationship with Shi Yumei could not progress any further

Thus, she ran to find Luo Xi, who walked with the wind like a great hero

She ran to ask him

Ye Qiaolu has settled down at the home of Shi Yumei during this summer vacation

She stopped speaking and sniffed. Fortunately, he came to persuade her; otherwise, she would have cried herself out and not known how to stop. "Then I will be the Earth Army." She wanted to fiercely beat up the bad guys

She had no choice but to tear up her notebook, crumple it into a ball, and cover it with a handkerchief. She made a sunny doll with a pockmarked face.

Bestowing beauty upon the past, she smiled gently and said, "He is admiring the scenery"

Although she does not like to cry, this is how it is portrayed on television. When the groom does not want the bride, the bride will cry. Moreover, now that Er Gou is also crying, she, who wishes to be a bride, has even more reason to cry. Thus, the more she cries, the more fervently she does so

Ye Qiaolu smiled, unable to help but show her teeth. After finishing her laughter, she remembered the serious matter, "Er Gou Ge, you have grown up. Marry me, okay?"

Until late September, the two of them visited an art exhibition together. It was then that Ye Qiaolu realized that Ye Jing also had some interest in painting. However, she had never seen him hold a paintbrush.

The female protagonist is draped in white gauze, wearing a white dress, surrounded by a cluster of flowers

Shi Yu Mei nodded and tucked the ticket into her pocket

She showed it to Ye Jing and said, "This is so ugly"

Ye Qiaolu sleeps in a warm little bed, smiling as she falls asleep every night. She hasn't even had nightmares of being chased by little monsters.

He was sitting at the table flipping through a book, and upon hearing the words, he turned his head and asked, "What are you doing?"

Ye Qiaolu felt that the leaf path at this moment was just like something out of a painting, "Aunt Shi, what is the leaf path looking at?"

This art exhibition features an ink wash theme with a relatively light color palette. Shi Yumei is dressed in a gray and white long dress, which is very much in harmony with the tone of the exhibition

Luo Xi is about to cry again

Shi Yu Mei then went to find a ball of yarn and made a satisfactory sunny doll

Feng Youyun is shorter than her. The groom is always taller than the bride

She spent another half a day in front of the mirror, and finally corrected him by saying, "I look much better than a sunny doll"

Currently, the housing prices in City D and City S are continuously adjusting downward

The soft light in the scene awakens the lively thoughts of the little girl with green, fluttering leaves. She has a certain longing for the bride's white gown

Ye Qiaolu's green eyes were red from crying, her round little face streaked with tears. "I want to be a bride."

He casually remarked, "Because he has no money, he cannot afford a wedding dress"

He said, "You look very much like her." A round, chubby face with two rosy apple-like cheeks. In his eyes, she looked just like that

After Ye Qiaolu learned about this matter, she eagerly anticipated the arrival of Sunday

On Sunday, the sky cleared up. Shi Yu Mei held one in each hand and stepped outside.

"It is a small path." She smiled and said, "He has liked drawing since he was little. I hired an art teacher for him, and the teacher said he has talent." However, since she brought him to Xiangshan Street, he has not drawn again.

He gazed for a long time

Ye Qiaolu listened, staring blankly at him. She understood that the groom no longer wanted her. He cried, and she cried along with him, "I want to be a beautiful bride, I want to marry Brother Ergou"

Ye Chengfeng was slightly surprised, "What? You like painting?"

He initially thought that since Shi Yu Mei and his daughter were so compatible and had good personalities, it would be worthwhile to pursue a relationship. After all, his daughter needed a complete family

Scenes of his marriage to Ye Qiaolu began to emerge in his mind. Her figure, when grown, was twice his size, and that image was too terrifying

Ye Qiaolu selected among the playmates.

He did not look at her and replied, "It's okay."

"Good." He turned to Luo Xi, "Er Gou, you act as the alien."

I want to make a sunny doll

Ye Qiaolu felt inexplicably uneasy, but upon seeing Shi Yu and Mei He, as well as Ye Jing's expression, which all appeared somewhat heavy, she did not dare to speak up

Ye Jing pulled her hand forward and said, "No playing marriage, let's play mecha battles instead"

Ye Qiaolu frowned

Hong Kong, just a few months after the return of sovereignty, has suffered a severe blow. The stock market and the real estate market have experienced a collapse of their bubbles

He glanced through the exhibition like a fleeting horse passing by. Then he stood at the side of the exhibition hall and looked up.

At noon, Shi and Mei returned, and Ye Qiaolu spoke of this matter

On Saturday morning, she went to Xiangshan Street to have fun

Then, Ye Qiaolu angrily knocked down the alien

However, his career is now in jeopardy, with the possibility of bankruptcy looming overnight, leaving him no time to concern himself with matters of love.

Feng Youyun and Zhang Chuan beside nodded, "Alright, let Er Gou and Xiao Luzi get married"

The leaf diameter is too beautiful; standing next to him makes her appear less beautiful than he is. She does not like it

She looked at him carefully. Then she glanced at herself in the mirror, finding herself less beautiful than the leaf veins. She pouted, "Why doesn't Er Gou want me to be his bride"

Ye Qiaolu did not think deeply. Even if she did, she would only think that having a mother is wonderful. She had a limited understanding of matters between adults, both men and women.

When summer vacation just started, Ye Chengfeng would come over to pick up his daughter to go home. Gradually, his visits turned into a way to mooch meals. After dinner, he would squeeze his daughter's small hand and leave alone.

"An art exhibition." A look of delight flashed across Shi Yu's beautiful face, "I will definitely go."

After returning home, Ye Qiaolu pinched her own face for a long time and asked Ye Jing, "Do I look unattractive like this?"

She stared blankly for a while. In this room, there were only her and Ye Jing. Since it was not her painting, it must be his.

Luo Xixian, who is a few months older than her, was clearly taken aback by this unexpected proposal. He looked at her round face, adopting a serious attitude towards the important matter of marriage, widened his eyes, gritted his teeth, and refused, "No."

Prior to this, many residents of Hong Kong invested in real estate in the Pearl River Delta. Coupled with the widespread news of the government's cancellation of welfare housing allocations, numerous organizations rushed to collectively purchase housing before the policy was finalized, resulting in an unprecedented boom in the real estate market

Luo Xi nodded with a choked voice. It is better to be with a bad person than to marry a fat person

The larger the business, the greater the risks involved. Ye Chengfeng watched as his friend lost millions in assets in just one day, and he became anxious.

After the summer vacation, Ye Qiaolu returned to her home

Affected by the decline of assets in Hong Kong, the nearby cities in the Pearl River Delta are experiencing dramatic changes

One evening, she saw a magnificent wedding scene in a television drama

The weather today is not very good, having experienced two bouts of showers

Ye Chengfeng is engaged in the building materials business. A billion-yuan project he is involved in is facing the risk of being abandoned amid this turmoil. Moreover, several real estate developments in City D have started recently but are now left in a state of stagnation.

Even the leaf diameter thinks this way
