Chapter 71 - Did she want to seduce her boyfriend?
WeChat was not a bad idea.
But, she needed to set up a new WeChat account first to keep it separate from the one she has as an art studio instructor. Otherwise there would be beginners' work and master's level work in the same account. That would be too confusing.
[MeowMeow: Oh, okay.]
Their little exchange and confirming her address took about 10 minutes.
That wasn't even counting the time spent sending the item out. There were a lot of odds and ends involved.
"Luckily, I will be selling at most one or two a day, otherwise this is not going to be sustainable..." said Gu Shishi to herself.
She thought about it for a second and fumbled out her feeding chicken painting.
She took a picture of it and placed it on Taobao.
Price: $30,000.
This was a pretty high price considering the size of the piece and that the more playful conception.
Normally, a somewhat well-known artist would be able to fetch up to $20,000 for a piece like this.
However, all those aside, this piece was infused with Living the Painting cheat.
Having that in mind, Gu Shishi decided to set it as a slightly higher starting price. After all, she planned on selling more in the future. It'd be a hassle if she doesn't start out higher.
In the future when she created large size landscape artistic conception work with Living the Painting, she was thinking she should at least ask for $1 million up.
"Okay! All set! Time to go to work!"
After she has set the price, there was now 1 inventory in her Taobao shop.
She ended up naming that piece "Didn't Get Red Packet. Not Happy!" Pleased with herself, she packed up and headed to the art studio.

Before she took off, Butler Lin, for the first time, approached her and said the chauffeur could drop her off.
Gu Shishi was very surprised, but she declined the offer.
"It'll double as exercising. Otherwise all I'd be doing is eat and sleep and sleep and eat. And I am mostly sitting down at work as well."
Being a painter was physical work.
Without the physical fitness to back it up, it'd be hard to last even two hours.
When one's hand was stable, the paint brush would be sturdy, and the lines would not be crooked. All these called for good physical fitness.
The ultra large size landscape painting could take over 8 hours a day for three weeks to over a month sometimes.
"But if I can trouble the chauffeur to pick me up at night, that'd be great."
She's afraid of the darkness. She didn't want to walk in the dark.
"No problem, Miss Gu."
Butler Lin made a note immediately.

After Gu Shishi arrived at the art studio in pouring sweat, she realized it was very calm and peaceful today.
Neither one of the two trouble-making men were there. She almost felt a bit odd.
After an entire day of class, she stopped Zhao Xian before she left work.
"Do you have the contact information of Luo Zheng?"
Zhao Xian looked alarmed, "Why? What do you want it for?"
Did she want to seduce her boyfriend?
Did Gu Shishi regret after she went home last night?
Luo Zheng might have a quick temper and looked down on women, but he was generous. When he was in a good mood normally, he would also mutter sweet words and was very gentlemanly in the way that he acted.
"Oh, nothing much. Just wanted to remind him that even though he didn't come in today, he should keep up with practicing at home," said Gu Shishi as she gestured a basic stroke in the air.
"He needs to continue the lift and hook exercises from yesterday, and also add slice and reverse to his exercise regime. One hundred times each."
Zhao Xian: "......"
She wasn't even sure what to make of that.

The Simulacrum
"He who fights with harem tropes should see to it that he himself does not become a harem protagonist. And if you gaze for long into a narrative, the narrative gazes also into you." --- Friedrich Nietzsche (probably?) How would you react if one day you woke up inside an environment running on tropes and clichés? For allegedly average high-schooler Leonard Dunning, this question became quite relevant when one day he woke up in a pristine city on a strange island in the middle of the Atlantic, without any memories, surrounded by classmates who are barely more than characterless placeholders, and with a classic indecisive harem protagonist and his impossibly beautiful love interests for friends. That would be hard to deal with already, yet his investigation into the tropes governing the world, trying to avoid harem shenanigans, and his odd blend of outside-context knowledge, unique abilities, and a penchant for causing trouble wherever he goes ends up dragging him into the center of the action anyway. Disclaimer: This is a tongue-in-cheek, slice of life romantic comedy, with occasional sprinkles of combat and mystery to spice things up. Please do not expect a straight up deconstruction beyond some in-universe meta-commentary by the characters.
