Pictures of pomegranates

Chapter 129
As Chu Jinyue spoke up, just as a couple was about to tear each other apart, the clever Chu Jinyi suddenly spoke again.His humble and polite voice interrupted Chu Jinyue's gaffe, and he said with a smile: "Yueyue, come here, brother, the wheelchair is a little hard to push!"

Sure enough, her elder brother's voice brought back Chu Jinyue's reason. She closed her mouth wisely and obediently pushed her brother's wheelchair.This is the dignity that comes from growing up in a wealthy family. Facing an outsider like Xie Rouxi, a dispute with the man she loves will not bring her any benefit. Chu Jinyue knows this very well.
Thus, the awkward and subtle first meeting between Xie Rouxi and Nan Mochen was skillfully resolved by Chu Jinyi.The next second, his wheelchair stopped right in front of Xie Rouxi. The distance just separated her from Nan Mochen.

With a smile on her face, Chu Jinyi turned to Nan Mochen and said: "Mochen, look at how nervous Yueyue is about you. Even my eldest brother is not as important as you. Oh, how sad! However, you are not as important as you in my family. Meeting someone who looks like an old friend shows your connection with our Chu family. You and Yueyue are indeed a match made in heaven!"

"Yes, my aunt looks the same as your friend. What a coincidence! I don't know how different my aunt's paintings are from that painter. You spent a lot of money buying paintings in Xiangdao!" Chu Jinyue tried her best to suppress it. Unhappily, he said with a smile.

"Have you really never been to Xiangdao? Don't you know Yiyi Gallery? Are you the aunt who has been an old lady here?" Sure enough, when he heard the word aunt, Nan Mochen couldn't help but ask.

"Well, yes, I have always been the aunt here!" Xie Rouxi nodded.

"Can I see your paintings?" Nan Mochen asked again.

Xie Rouxi casually picked up a piece of work teaching the old lady how to paint, handed it to him and said, "Okay, you can take a look at it. In fact, I am not good at painting. I just fell in love with the old lady and she liked it."

"Oh!" Nan Mochen responded softly, his face full of disappointment.

Although he didn't know how to paint before, he also did some understanding and research on painting appreciation because of the work at Yiyi Gallery.The composition of the painting in front of me is not very good, and the size of the scenery is not medium-sized. It seems that the painting is uneven in priority and density.Moreover, the colors of the whole picture are not matched properly. It seems that the aunt is still an aunt, and her paintings are not at the same level as Zhao Xi.

The changes in Nan Mochen's facial expressions were all caught in Chu Jinyue's eyes, and she smiled extremely happily at this moment.

These years of pulling and pulling made her understand Nan Mochen's character very well. She knew that Nan Mochen was most afraid of and despised those things that would make him fall down.Because of his poor background, he suffered too much and suffered too many insults.So now Nan Mochen is very concerned about face in everything, and his heart is filled with pride and disdain, and he is deeply afraid that he will be looked down upon by others.

Therefore, no matter what kind of woman he faces, Chu Jinyue only needs to remind Nan Mochen of the other party's identity, and Nan Mochen will naturally weigh the pros and cons instinctively.Just like Xie Rouxi in front of me, since she is an aunt, what can she do even if she looks exactly like that old friend?

A woman who cannot add brilliance to Nan Mochen will only be a loss and stain for the extremely excellent Nan Mochen. He will never have anything happen to her even if he dies. Chu Jinyue is very confident about this.

"Usually the old lady likes to paint oil paintings. Her paintings are all here. It is the old lady who decides what scenery to paint." Xie Rouxi introduced it leisurely.

She didn't know why Chu Jinyue and her boyfriend, who were rarely home, wanted to visit the old lady's studio. Is the studio more important than the old lady's health?Especially when Chu Jinyue specifically mentioned her identity as an aunt just now, Xie Rouxi also felt speechless. The general had a sword but could not kill grassflies. This gesture was a bit too petty.Fortunately, after becoming Xie Kangnian's granddaughter, Xie Rouxi's inferiority sensitivity has disappeared. She doesn't think that calling herself aunty can mean anything now.Therefore, she looked at everyone calmly from beginning to end, but she felt a little strange about Nan Mochen in her heart.

"Rou Xi, if it's okay, go and see the old lady. If anything happens, I'll come back to you!" Chu Jinyi spoke again and said to Xie Rouxi with a smile.

Xie Rouxi responded and walked out of the studio. Chu Jinyi always gave her a sense of warmth like an elder brother in this strange home.Although he was paralyzed in a wheelchair, Xie Rouxi had no reason to feel at ease as long as he was by her side.

What Xie Rouxi didn't know that night was that not long after she left, Nan Mochen saw the painting that she had placed in the most inconspicuous corner.After arriving home, Nan Mochen began to toss and turn, and the painting in the corner gave him a huge impact.

That feeling of déjà vu reminded him of Zhao Xi, whom he met at Xiangdao Gallery, and of the date he was let go on that day.He remembered clearly that after waiting for Zhao Xi for a long time, he once again ran to the gallery to look for someone.

Zhao Yiyi told him with arrogance and disdain, not to have wishful thinking about Zhao Xi, she was not a girl who could be with him.Nan Mochen reluctantly asked for news about her, and Zhao Yiyi said that Zhao Xi had already had a wife, and that the other party was a wealthy and powerful person, so he should give up as soon as possible.

Nan Mochen didn't believe what Zhao Yiyi said, so she took out a photo of Xie Kangnian and Xie Rouxi and told him that this was her favorite.Moreover, the reason why he didn't go on the date was because Xie Kangnian was sick and needed her to be by his side.

Nan Mochen, who didn't know the truth, was completely dumbfounded. He remembered the luxury car he had seen before and the comments of people around him, and he completely believed Zhao Yiyi's words.

From that moment on, Nan Mochen knew that sincerity in love was actually the most ridiculous thing.He was determined to get ahead in life, to make the Zhao family regret being blind, and to be able to afford Zhao Xi's paintings.So, Nan Mochen, who returned to Western University, accepted Chu Jinyue's overtures. After some pulling and getting along, the two finally became a couple.

With the strong support of the Chu family's resources, Nan Mochen's career became even more powerful, and he soon gained huge assets.His worth soared all the way, and he was finally able to return to Hong Kong Island as he wished, and bought the painting that he couldn't afford at the beginning at a sky-high price.

At the same time, he also learned the bad news that the young Zhao Xi had died.As for the cause of her death, Zhao Yiyi was unwilling to mention it, but just advised him not to think about her anymore.

That day, he took the painting home in despair and suddenly felt that his revenge was meaningless.From then on, the painting was hung in the most conspicuous place above his bed, accompanying him from morning to night.It's just that the name Zhao Xi has become a pain in his heart, but he never expected that he would meet a woman with the same face and temperament in the Chu family.
