Chapter 46, Ning Family Studio, Watching (Seeking Follow-up Reading)

Reception room.

Wang Zhen put down the phone and looked at President Ning who was sitting in the armchair.

"Boss Ning, everything has been arranged."

Ning Anchi closed the novel in his hand and put it on the coffee table. Although his eyes were on the book just now, he was paying attention to the conversation between Wang Zhen and Jiang Zhe.

"Tomorrow afternoon, you bring him here. I'll arrange for someone to take him back."

Wang Zhen looked at President Ning's reaction. Although she couldn't guess what she was thinking, she could tell that she couldn't refuse, so she agreed immediately. Just now, she wanted to pick up Jiang Zhe in the morning as agreed before, but she saw President Ning's signal, so she changed it to the afternoon.

Although I was curious about why President Ning made such arrangements, I didn't dare to ask.

"Mr. Ning, you are really thoughtful. Jiang Zhe has no psychological burden after taking the unified examination, so his creative state should be better."

"Yeah." Mr. Ning responded indifferently.

"Boss Ning, do you have any other instructions?"

"That's all. Thank you for your trip." Mr. Ning stood up.

"This is what I should do. You should go to bed early." Wang Zhen quickly stood up and said goodbye.

"Sister Li, please see the guests off." Ning Anchi watched Wang Zhen leave, turned back to the bedroom, changed into comfortable pajamas, and walked to his study.

She has two study rooms, one for receiving guests and the other where outsiders are rarely allowed in.

There is an easel in the study, displaying Jiang Zhe's completed drawings.

Ning Anchi sat on the chair behind the desk, staring at the draft in a daze.

After a long while, she stood up and pushed the bookshelf behind her. The bookshelf slowly moved, revealing the space inside.

She walked into the secret space, and the bookshelf slowly closed and returned to its original state.

……

The next morning, Jiang Zhe finished his cultural studies as planned and sent the puppy home to his parents.
Because I had to go to Mr. Ning's house to paint in the afternoon, and I didn't know what time I would be back in the evening, I could only entrust the puppy to my parents.

He arrived at the place he had agreed to meet with Wang Zhen on time and saw Wang Zhen's car already waiting on the roadside.

Seeing Wang Zhen sitting in the car and waving at him, he opened the door and sat in the back seat.

"Manager Wang, Assistant Liu." He greeted the people in the car. "Sorry, I'm late."

"It's not the time we agreed on yet. Oh, look at you, you're sweating. Wipe it off quickly." Wang Zhen took out a tissue and handed it to Jiang Zhe.

"Thank you."

The car starts.

Jiang Zhe wiped his sweat and said, "I have a puppy. I'm not at home in the afternoon, so I can only entrust the dog to my parents."

"Do you like to keep pets? I also have a Siberian Husky. What kind of dog do you have?" Wang Zhen is very good at finding topics to talk about.

Jiang Zhe told the origin of the puppy.

Wang Zhen said: "I can tell at first glance that you are a loving person."

On the way to Mr. Ning's residence, she asked tentatively, "Mr. Jiang, how long do you think it will take to finish this painting?"

Jiang Zhe has simulated it several times, but he didn't say for sure: "If everything goes well, it will take three or four hours, but if the process is not smooth, it may take a few more hours."

"Well, President Ning has not expressed his opinion." Wang Zhen's speech slowed down, as if he was choosing his words: "Of course, you have to be prepared. President Ning is very busy, so he may not have the right time."

Jiang Zhe was a little confused: "The draft has been drawn, and there is no need for President Ning to be present."

Wang Zhen said, "Boss Ning might like to watch the painting process. In addition, Boss Ning, there might be something she asked me to do today, so when you come back, she will send someone to pick you up. It's not that I'm afraid of trouble." She remembered what Boss Ning had asked her to do yesterday, so she found an opportunity to make it clear in advance to avoid Jiang Zhe misunderstanding that she was unwilling to pick him up. At the same time, she didn't know how Boss Ning would arrange it, so she didn't dare to make too many promises.

Jiang Zhe didn't take it to heart. "It's okay, don't worry. I'm already embarrassed to ask you to pick me up and drop me off."

Wang Zhen said, "I would be very grateful if you would take the trouble to do this portrait."

The car entered the Ning family’s parking lot.

Jiang Zhe saw that there was only one sports car parked there, and all the other vehicles were gone.

He, Wang Zhen, and Wang Zhen's assistant followed the staff and took the elevator to the living room.

The housekeeper, Sister Li, is already here to greet you.

"Mr. Jiang, Manager Wang. President Ning suddenly had to go out for something. She has already instructed that when Mr. Jiang arrives, he can go directly to the studio to paint. If you need any tools, just tell me directly.

Manager Wang, when President Ning has time, he will call you."

"Okay, thank you. We'll go to the studio now." Wang Zhen agreed.

Sister Li led a few people to the studio.

Jiang Zhe saw the Ning Mansion's studio, which was about 80 to 90 square meters in area, slightly smaller than the studio in the Art Academy, but more luxuriously decorated.

The solid wood flooring looks like ash, with beautiful patterns. The waist-high wooden wainscots have wood carvings on the edges and corners.

The studio is equipped with work tables and easels, and has all kinds of tools and consumables for different types of paintings. The wall-mounted display ropes that can be raised and lowered are usually found in art galleries.

There are several paintings displayed on the wall, which appear to be works by domestic painters.

He observed the indoor light source. In addition to the natural light coming in from the windows, there were also adjustable lights, and the windows were equipped with devices that could be closed.

Looking up at the top of the room, you will find that there is a skylight cleverly designed to bring in natural light.

Good guy.

He was secretly amazed that this studio could be turned into a skylight studio. As far as he knew, there were not many schools in Binhai City that had skylight studios.

"Mr. Jiang, take a look, is there anything else you need?" Sister Li had been accompanying them.

Jiang Zhe saw that his finished drawing was already placed on the easel, and a drawing board was already placed on another easel.

"Aunt Li, I want to choose watercolor paper first."

"Okay, come with me." Sister Li led him to the cabinet in the studio. She opened the sliding door and revealed the grid inside.

The grids are large and small, neatly arranged with different drawing papers and materials. You can tell there are no cheap items just by looking at the specifications and packaging.

"I don't know what kind of paper you like, so I didn't prepare the paper for you in advance. Please do it yourself."

"Thank you, Aunt Li." He selected a piece of fine-grained watercolor paper of the same size as the draft, and found the tools for mounting it. "Aunt Li, these are basically enough."

He took the tools to cut the water tape, sprayed the drawing paper with water, and started mounting it.

Sister Li said, "If you need anything, just let us know."

She looked at Wang Zhen: "Would you like to have some tea and rest?"

"It's okay, we're here to accompany Mr. Jiang."

Sister Li asked someone to bring some tea and snacks and closed the door of the studio.

Jiang Zhe mounted the drawing paper and placed the tools and materials in the most convenient place. When the dryness and wetness of the drawing paper reached the required level, he started to draft.

Although he had a draft as a reference, he did not copy the draft 100%. Instead, he further refined and integrated the shape based on the draft until the new draft had no problems.

He also found that there was blank glue prepared here. He had never used this imported material before, but he did not reject this tool.

Apply the white space glue at the position you designed, so you don’t have to worry about overturning when using the wet painting method.

Jiang Zhe saw that there was nothing wrong with the painting, so he immediately picked up the shading brush and started to apply the colors. With the experience of creating for Chen Yan, he was very comfortable using the wet painting method at this time.

Colors such as ultramarine, emerald green, olive green, and ochre yellow flow across the paper.

Wang Zhen was a little worried when he saw this. Last time, he felt that Jiang Zhe's painting style was very rigorous, but why did it suddenly change today? !
The assistant also looked at Wang Zhen worriedly.

Wang Zhen looked at her.

The assistant asked quietly, "He wouldn't... ruin the paper, would he? I think some of the colors are wrong?"

Wang Zhen signaled her not to make any sound.

At this time, Jiang Zhe continued to layer colors, allowing them to flow and blend, only occasionally guiding or wiping them.

Wang Zhen and the other man couldn't understand it at all.

Jiang Zhe is not worried about painting badly. Many watercolor colors will become lighter and grayer after drying, so you must set the amount in advance so that the color reaches the level you need.

Some colors that seem vague at the moment are preparations for later portrayals.

He used a scraper to scrape off some of the undried color, allowing the light and dark layers of the background and characters to appear, and began to portray it in depth.

He has memorized the character modeling of this painting by heart. The subsequent work will be to improve the texture and texture to increase the overall appeal.

As time goes by, the characters on the screen become more and more layered.

At this time, Wang Zhen and the others saw Jiang Zhe painting characters and also adjusted the background and surrounding elements. Only then could the effects of some of the previous colors be seen.

Music suddenly started playing on Wang Zhen's phone.

She left the studio with her cell phone, and soon came back and walked to Jiang Zhe's side.

"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Ning has something for me to do. You can just focus on painting here. Other things will be arranged by others."

Jiang Zhe was immersed in his painting and didn't want to be distracted, so he answered casually: "Okay, I understand, you go and do your thing."

Wang Zhen left with his assistant.

Jiang Zhe was the only one left in the studio.

Soon, the door opened silently, and Ning Anchi walked into the studio, came behind Jiang Zhe, and watched him paint.

Jiang Zhe heard the voice and turned around to find it was Ning Anchi.

"Boss Ning, you're back."

"Sorry to bother you while you're painting."

"No." Jiang Zhe continued painting.

He is painting the face of a figure.

In order to highlight Ning Anchi's features and skin texture, the water marks need to be more subtle.

Ning Anchi saw that after Jiang Zhe smeared a piece of color on the painting, he paused for a moment, and then used a clean brush to dot the color he had just painted, absorbing some of the color and leaving a light mark. This water mark showed the relationship between the root of the nose and the eye socket.

She just looked at Jiang Zhe and painted her eyes and nose stroke by stroke, making the character more three-dimensional.

At this time, Jiang Zhe was preparing to draw the upper eyeliner of his eyes. In order to prevent his hands from shaking, he could only use his other hand as a support. The hand serving as a support would inevitably touch the screen.

Ning Anchi saw Jiang Zhe's finger touching his face in the painting, and he felt a strange feeling in his heart.

 Thanks to fellow book readers for their recommendations and monthly tickets.
