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

Chapter 60, Walking, Mission, and Masterpieces (Seeking Follow-up Reading)
Ning Anchi's topic brought back many memories for Jiang Zhe.

When he was a teenager, his favorite animals, besides dogs, were horses.

Every time I see someone riding a horse on TV or in a movie, I get excited. Even if I see a transport team mainly consisting of horse-drawn carriages, I will stop and watch.

Unfortunately, as he grew older, this animal became increasingly distant from him.

He told Ning Anchi that he also liked horses.

Ning Anchi said, "My friend and I have opened a horse farm together. I have a few horses. When you have time, I will take you there to play."

Jiang Zhe didn't take this seriously.

The car stopped and he got out and went back to the studio.

Ning Anchi watched Jiang Zhe walk away and told the driver: "Go to the Ocean Center."

……

Jiang Zhe returned to the studio, first released Xiao Ka from the cage to let it move around, and then began to study and make up for today's lessons.

Tired of studying, he opened the system, found the taskbar, and clicked on the task of winning the first prize.

The page shows that the progress bar of the task has reached the end and asks whether to settle it now.

Jiang Zhe thought that he had only obtained a professional test certificate so far, and the system would evaluate the task completion based on his performance in the art test.

If I wait for more certificates to be mailed, will I get more assessment rewards?
He planned to wait until all the results came out before settling the account.

At 6 o'clock in the evening, when Jiang Zhe was hesitating whether to cook or go out for dinner, his cell phone rang.

He saw that it was an unfamiliar phone number and hesitated for a moment before answering the call.

"Jiang Zhe, it's me." A familiar voice came from the phone.

"Chen Yan? Where are you calling from?" Jiang Zhe heard some noise coming from Chen Yan's side.

"I'm outside, using a pay phone. I came out for a tutorial and it just ended. Have you eaten?"

"No."

"Would you like to come over and have dinner with me?"

Jiang Zhe asked, "Where are you?"

"I'm at the east entrance of Minjiang Road."

"I'll come find you." Jiang Zhe put down the phone and whistled at Xiao Ka: "Let's go. Dad will take you to have dinner with your sister."

Xiao Ka seemed to understand that he had to go out and immediately ran to the door.

Jiang Zhe took Xiao Ka and took a bus to Minjiang Road, where there is a famous snack street in Binhai.

He saw from afar that Chen Yan was still strolling beside the flower bed with her schoolbag on her back.

When Xiao Ka saw Chen Yan, he pulled Jiang Zhe and ran over.

Seeing a man and a dog, Chen Yan was surprised and picked up Xiao Ka and teased him. "Karl, you still have a conscience, unlike that guy who didn't call once."

She held Xiao Ka in her arms and looked at Jiang Zhe: "Why are you so slow? I'm starving."

Jiang Zhe said, "It's fast enough to take a taxi here. Why did you run so far to come to class? Did you sneak out to play?"

"How is that possible? My parents found an English tutor for me and I took the class. The teacher tutored three groups of students a day. I studied until I called you."

"Let's go eat."

The two looked for a suitable dinner in the snack street.

At this time, there were already crayfish on the street, but the price was very expensive. Jiang Zhe saw Chen Yan staring at the crayfish with envy, so he directly pulled her to sit at the outdoor stall and called the waiter to come over to take the order.

"What kind of food do you like?" Jiang Zhe asked Chen Yan.

"The things here are so expensive." Chen Yan looked at the price list.

"Don't worry, I'll treat you." Jiang Zhe didn't have as much savings as he does now in his previous life.

Chen Yan ordered two flavors of crayfish, and Jiang Zhe ordered two dishes and several drinks.

Chen Yan unscrewed the candied pear bottle and gulped it down.

"Drink slowly."

"You don't know, I'm thirsty and tired after an entire afternoon." Chen Yan complained.

The waiter quickly brought a large plate of crayfish and the two began to peel them.

Chen Yan broke open the shrimp head and sipped the juice: "Hmm~ delicious!"

This was the first time Jiang Zhe had eaten this kind of food after his rebirth. At that time, crayfish did not have so many flavors, but fortunately, the ingredients in this restaurant were relatively fresh.

"Well~Have you received your professional certificate?" Chen Yan asked vaguely with a lobster in her mouth.

Jiang Zhe said: "The students from the Printing College have arrived, but the others haven't come yet."

Chen Yan's face fell. "My certificate of passing the printing college has also arrived, but my ranking is too bad. I'm ranked in the 80s, which is not even in the valid rankings."

Jiang Zhe consoled him: "Don't worry, wait a little longer."

"I don't have much hope for this school. I guess I might have to study modeling." Chen Yan continued to peel crayfish.

"How are you doing in academic subjects?" Jiang Zhe asked.

"My English is really bad. My parents asked me to take tutoring classes, and I also need a history teacher to tutor me. I have classes tomorrow, and I feel like I'm dying of exhaustion."

"Then eat more and replenish your body." Jiang Zhe said with a smile: "Half of the students in our class also go to extracurricular tutoring classes."

Seeing that Jiang Zhe was peeling quickly, Chen Yan said, "Help me peel one."

When Xiao Ka saw the two people eating, he stood up anxiously, scratching the table with his two front paws and drooling.

Jiang Zhe and the other man kept feeding Xiao Ka with meat.

The meal was very enjoyable. "I'll take you home in a car."

"Let's take a walk to digest the food." Chen Yan didn't want to go home so soon.

The two of them walked along Minjiang Road, walking their dog and chatting about things around them.

As the weather gets warmer, more and more tourists come. The evening breeze makes walking a very pleasant thing, but the leisure time is always short.

When they reached the intersection, Chen Yan checked the time and said, "Jiang Zhe, I have to go home."

"I'll take you home." Jiang Zhe took a taxi and took Chen Yan to a place near her home.

He watched Chen Yan go upstairs before rushing back to the studio.

He checked the system and found that today's learning accumulation was below average again.

I really can't relax for a moment.

In order to get the reward, I can only try my best to make up for today's accumulation.

The next day was Sunday. Jiang Zhe had no plans to go out and no one was looking for him. It was a rare time for him to be alone.

He stayed in the studio, and when he got tired of studying, he would take out his paintbrush and create.

Because there were still some unfinished tasks for Chen Yan in the task bar, he took the time to draw more than a dozen drafts in the form of sketches.

This time, Chen Yan's daily state is shown, such as some moments of eating and walking last night.

In the afternoon, seeing that the accumulation of today’s learning was able to reach the average, he selected a few from the drafts, further enriched them, and painted them into watercolors.

I painted until 5pm. When I started to pack up, I found that one of the paintings, which showed Chen Yan taking a walk, was rated as a masterpiece by the system.

He hung the painting on the wall and reviewed his creative process.

It took about twenty minutes to create this painting, and simple painting techniques were used in many places. It can be seen that when systematically evaluating a work of art, the main reference is aesthetics, and technique is not the most important factor.

Now, the task can be completed as long as I create another fine painting with Chen Yan as the theme.

At 6 pm, Jiang Zhe received a call from his mother.

"Not coming back yet?"

"I'll get back to you right away. I'll get back to you right away." Jiang Zhe put down his phone.

Holidays are always so short.
