Reborn as a great painter, with a system, you can be willful

"Jiang Zhe, although the capital is not near the sea, there are also good places to watch the sunrise and sunset." Meng Xi pointed ahead.

"Wanchun Pavilion, the highest point of the central axis."

The two of them arrived at Wanchun Pavilion as quickly as possible.

Because they wasted some time on the way, the two came to the place to watch the sunset and happened to see the most beautiful scene.

The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sky and earth red and enveloped this ancient city.

Looking at this scene, Jiang Zhe was full of thoughts.

I wonder if the scenery now is the same as the countless sunsets in the past years?
Meng Xi stood beside Jiang Zhe, admiring the beauty of the sunset in the same posture. However, she quickly stopped admiring the view and looked at Jiang Zhe next to her, who was still immersed in the beauty.

At this moment, Jiang Zhe was no longer as mature and steady as before. Facing the beautiful scenery, he showed his simple and sincere side.

She couldn't help but wonder, maybe this was the real Jiang Zhe.

"There is such a beautiful scenery, why are you looking at me?" Jiang Zhe asked, staring at the beautiful scenery.

"Let's see how a great painter would deal with such beautiful scenery." Meng Xi acted like a woman who had met her idol.

"Don't miss the beautiful view." Jiang Zhe said, "Let me take a picture for you."

"Let's take a photo together." Meng Xi still asked someone to help them take a photo.

"Let's go, it's time to go back." The sunset faded and the sky darkened. The two walked out of the scenic area and prepared to take a car back.

"Are you going back to the hotel directly?" Meng Xi asked.

"I'll go back to the hotel, but before that, I'll take you home first." Jiang Zhe said.

"No need. If you have nothing to do tomorrow, you can call me directly." Meng Xi said.

Jiang Zhe took out his phone and opened the missed call. "Is this it?"

"Yes, that's it. You are quite cautious and don't answer unfamiliar calls." Meng Xi teased.

Jiang Zhe laughed and said, "If I don't send you back, it means I am immature. I will be embarrassed to see Teacher Yang again. Let's go. We need a ride anyway."

While the two were waiting for the bus, Jiang Zhe received a text message.

Professor Qin asked him when he would be back and sent him the location of the gathering.

Jiang Zhe was not worried when he saw that the location was not far from the hotel. "Tell me the address and the route."

Meng Xi didn't act pretentiously and directly told her his home address.

If Jiang Zhe took him home, he wouldn't have to take too many detours.

Sitting in the taxi, Jiang Zhe looked out the window at the gradually increasing number of vehicles.

"Jiang Zhe, you should be a member of the Artists Association now, right? Are you at the provincial, municipal or provincial level?" Meng Xi suddenly asked.
Jiang Zhe said: "There are both provincial and municipal levels."

"Your next step is to strive to become a member of a higher-level art association."

"I haven't thought about it. Is this important?"

"I think it should be useful. However, I am now trying to become a member of the District Artists Association," said Meng Xi.

Jiang Zhe felt that Meng Xi might have thought the opposite. He should have done something first and then considered the association, instead of thinking about joining the association first.

"What major are you studying?"

"Environmental garden landscape."

"Hearing you talk about the stories of these classical gardens so clearly, it turns out that it is related to your major. You studied this major, but I noticed that you seemed to be very interested in the painting circle." Jiang Zhe asked.

"It's a long story. I love painting, but I didn't get into the top art academy. I didn't want to leave the capital, so I got into my current university.

In addition, I have seen many companies that need environmental designers. To be honest, I don't want to do such a job. So, I considered another way. "Then I found that there are too many talents in the art circle." Meng Xi said: "You haven't seen my paintings. I am good at watercolor painting. Next time we meet, please give me some advice."

Jiang Zhe said, "I don't deserve your advice. Your school should have many professional and powerful teachers. If you are interested, we can communicate with each other."

"Okay. Do you have time tomorrow?" Meng Xi asked.

Jiang Zhe said: "There may be a literary gathering tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"Is it related to this national exhibition?" Meng Xi became interested.

Jiang Zhe said, "I don't know either, I just heard about it." Meng Xi envied Jiang Zhe. She had heard about this writing meeting a long time ago and wanted to participate, even if she didn't have a chance to show herself.

However, with her previous experience, she did not ask in a hurry.

The two began to chat about some interesting things in their respective schools. Meng Xi even casually asked for Xiao Yufeng's information.

Jiang Zhe did not hide it either.

Meng Xi felt relieved when she heard that Jiang Zhe and Xiao Yufeng's relationship was indeed average.

The taxi stopped, Meng Xi got out, stood beside the car, and said to Jiang Zhe with a smile: "Thank you, if you have time, call me, I can take you to buy gifts."

"I remember. You won't go far, will you?" Jiang Zhe asked.

"Don't worry, my home is in this community. You should leave quickly and be careful." Meng Xi waved.

Jiang Zhe waved to her and asked the driver to drive.

Meng Xi stood on the side of the road and watched the vehicle go away before turning around and walking towards the entrance of the community.

After walking a few steps, a boy came over. "Meng Xi, you are back. I called you today, but you didn't answer..."

Meng Xi was very surprised and returned to his cold expression.

"You're waiting for me here? What do you mean?"

"I just saw a familiar person in the car. That's..."

"What does it have to do with you? Do I need to report to you about what Teacher Yang arranged?" Meng Xi spoke calmly, which reduced the boy's momentum a lot.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not... I just... I called you and you didn't answer, so I was a little worried about you."

"I'm not a child. Please don't interfere in my life." Meng Xi said as he walked.

"No, no, I didn't mean that." The boy's voice was even lower.

"I'm going home, don't follow me." Meng Xi said without even turning his head.

"Are you free tomorrow?"

"There are arrangements."

The boys really didn’t dare to follow her downstairs, they could only watch from a distance…

Jiang Zhe stepped into a restaurant.

The restaurant is not big and is very clean.

Professor Qin was sitting alone at the table, sipping tea.

Jiang Zhe walked over quickly. "Teacher, I'm late."

Professor Qin said, "Sit down and have some water. It's not the agreed time yet. How was your afternoon?"

"Very good?" Jiang Zhe directly recounted his experience.

"Mr. Yang is a very face-conscious person. Since he is too busy, he asks his students to do it for him. By the way, what did you promise her?" Professor Qin asked.

Jiang Zhe said: "I dare not be good."

"Let me tell you two things first. There will be a calligraphy and painting meeting tomorrow. People who come to the capital to participate in the exhibition, together with some local calligraphers and painters, will work with relevant departments to organize an event." Professor Qin explained: "If you are willing to go, we will go. If you don't want to go, we won't force you."

Jiang Zhe did not hesitate: "If you think it's appropriate, I will go with you."

Professor Qin said: "It would be good to go and broaden your horizons.

It just so happens that you should apply directly for membership in the National Artists Association."

This was the second time Jiang Zhe heard about this.

"I'll follow your instructions."

Professor Qin said: "In fact, with your honors and achievements, you should have joined a long time ago. This is a good opportunity."
