In the past, he wouldn't argue with her no matter how frequently she bothered him. After all, he didn't make it clear to her so he was also partly responsible.

At this time, Ming Yan came over with the framed painting. "Master, this painting has already been framed."

After he finished speaking, he saw Wang Xiangyun's beautiful tear-stained face and an indignant Little Tian. Why did it feel like he missed a good show?

"Okay, let's go." Dongfang Ming nodded and then left with Ming Yan.

This time, Wang Xiangyun didn't go block him again. She just watched him leave as tears kept coming out of her eyes.

The shop assistant quietly walked far away when he saw this happen.

He also muttered in his heart at the same time, This girl is so beautiful. How is this master able to bear breaking her heart like this? Sigh… If I could have such a beautiful wife, I would even wake myself from smiling while I sleep!

"My lady, why don't we also go back?" Little Tian softly consulted her while she helped wipe her tears.

She really didn't want her lady to be in such a sorrowful state.

"..."

Wang Xiangyun lifted up her slender lily-white hands to wipe her tears and then silently walked over to sit on the stool at the side. It wasn't clear what she was thinking.

In response, Little Tian had no choice but to say to the shop assistant, "Mister, could you please pour some tea."

If her mistress didn't leave, there was no way she would leave by herself.

The shop assistant nodded and quickly went to get some tea leaves and pour water.

Although Wang Xiangyun almost got him fired, he was fine now, right?

Little Tian stood at the side and accompanied Wang Xiangyun as she spaced out. On the other side, when Dongfang Ming arrived back at his lodging, he asked Ming Yan to prepare the brush and ink. He wanted to paint a new portrait of Liu Duo…

Ming Yan looked as Dongfang Ming painted earnestly. Every time he painted a stroke he would stop to think. He even seemed to be smiling from the corner of his mouth?

Feeling slightly suspicious, he muttered in his heart, Why do I feel like master treats Mrs. Ye very differently?

…

"Ming Yan, who are you thinking about that put in you in such a trance?" Dongfang Ming had a teasing smile on his handsome face. His mood was completely unaffected by what had happened just now. "It seems it is time for you to make a decision about marriage."

Upon hearing him, Ming Yan's handsome face turned completely red. "Master, what are you talking about. How can I dare to take that step before master does? Moreover, I don't want to get married. I'm satisfied with just staying by master's side."

"If I am the one that causes you to be alone forever, you might be satisfied but I will feel uneasy!" Dongfang Ming laughed. He knew his loyalty. "Take this painting to be framed and don't let anything bad happen again."

He knew Wang Xiangyun had a stubborn personality. Otherwise, why would she still stupidly keep on pestering him?

Ming Yan nodded. He took the painting that was repainted and then went straight to the bookstore.

When Ming Yan arrived at the bookstore, he saw Wang Xiangyun was sitting at the side. He immediately frowned.

It has been about two hours since we left before. Did she just stay here and not leave? Ming Yan muttered in his heart.

Little Tian saw that he came back and she knew it was definitely because Dongfang Ming had painted another painting of Liu Duo after they went back.

For some reason, she also felt that the way Dongfang Ming treated Liu Duo was also very different.

As her lady was engaged to him, she had relatively more interactions with him. She never saw Dongfang Ming being so friendly towards a girl before that he would paint a painting of her!

"Mister, I will hand this painting to you. If something happens to it again, then you can prepare to pay compensation and be fired!" Ming Yan said to him very sternly.

The shop assistant nodded and bowed to make a guarantee. "Of course, of course. I will definitely make sure it remains intact and I will hand it to you after it has been framed."
