The guilt towards Yun Nan and dissatisfaction towards Yun Liu that had just sprouted in Yun Zhang’s heart were extinguished by Yun Liu’s tears. Fortunately, Yun Nan no longer cared about the attitude of these blood relatives toward her.

She stretched and looked at the time. Shi Nian had left early today and hadn’t eaten breakfast. She only needed to prepare her own breakfast.

Yun Nan washed her face haphazardly and went downstairs in slippers and pajamas. She was halfway down the stairs when she heard the sound of the door lock turning.

“Be careful. Don’t make too much noise. Don’t disturb the madam,” she heard Chang Yuan’s voice instruct.

Yun Nan quickly turned around and headed upstairs to change. When she went downstairs again, she saw Chang Yuan instructing two workers to bring in a pile of things. They brought in an easel, drawing paper, paintbrushes, and a complete set of drawing and painting materials. Yun Nan was stunned at the collection.

Chang Yuan placidly informed her, “Young Madam, Young Master personally picked these. We didn’t know much about these things and relied on the store owner’s recommendation. This is the store’s contact number. If there’s anything else you need, just call them and ask them to send it over.”

Yun Nan reached out to touch the easel and asked Chang Yuan, “What-”

‘What is wrong with him? Why did he buy these things?’ was what she wanted to say, but she bit back her words. She suddenly remembered that—before she went to bed last night—Shi Nian had asked her to move her art studio upstairs. She hadn’t agreed, so he decided to set up another art studio at home.

Yun Nan’s mind whirled with her speculations, ‘Why is he so obsessed with this? Is he afraid that I’ll affect Fang Xi’s love life? Or perhaps, he’s interested in dating Fang Xi? Does he find me a hindrance?’ She shook her head and felt that she was overanalyzing things.

Seeing that she didn’t continue speaking, Chang Yuan thought she was wondering about Shi Nian, so he said, “Young Master has an important meeting today and went straight to the company. Are you looking for him?”

Yun Nan shook her head. “No, no, that’s fine. Thank him for me when you see him. Just tell him… I like it very much, thank you.” Yun Nan felt that there was no need to overthink this matter. At most, she would pay him for the materials.

Chang Yuan left with his men. Yun Nan rolled up her sleeves and began to tidy up. Shi Nian had said that she could draw in the living room so she wouldn’t stand on ceremony!

Just as she was done with her task, Chang Yuan called, “Young Madam, Young Master would like to know if you want to investigate the source of those rumors on the Internet.”

Yun Nan frowned. ‘Why does he insist on communicating through his assistant? Couldn’t he ask me himself?’ However, she still replied, “No, I know who’s behind it and have already spoken with them. Let’s see how the situation develops first.”

“Alright, Young Madam. If you need anything, please let me know at any time.”

“Thank you!” Yun Nan said sincerely,

Chang Yuan lowered his voice and commented, “Young Master is out of sorts today. He wanted to ask you directly if you liked the things he bought. He was also quite angry about the rumors on the Internet, but he was too proud and refused to call you himself.”

Chang Yuan hung up the phone after saying that. Yun Nan held her phone and looked at the screen after the conversation ended. She was dumbfounded.

She didn’t understand. ‘What?’ she thought confusedly.

‘Tsundere,’ was Chang Yuan’s evaluation of Shi Nian.

Yun Nan went downstairs to bring the unfinished painting up. She made some food and sat cross-legged on the floor to draw. Once she focused on something, she would get so immersed she would lose track of time.

After the last stroke of her brush, the painting was finished. She had made a total of three paintings in the past few days. The contents of the paintings were all related to her movies—the two box office movies and the other one that was still to be filmed, ‘4:30 PM.’

Yun Nan stretched and put the three paintings on display. She took a few decent photos after positioning them in the desired lighting and angle. Then, she logged in to Xi Jin’s account and posted the photos on her social media platform with the caption: “Actions speak for themselves, and the truth will prevail. Just do what you wish to do no matter life’s obstacles.”

Yun Zhang had never taken her seriously, and neither did her parents. They didn’t want to acknowledge her talent for Yun Liu’s sake. At the same time, they couldn’t accept the fact that a child who grew up outside was better than the child they had meticulously raised.

Compared to blood ties, kinship, and love, their face was more important.

The love and aid Yun Nan had received since she was young had all come from people who weren’t related by blood at all. Therefore, Yun Nan had clearly understood a long time ago that there was no need to force herself, nor her biological parents and her brother, to maintain and nurture their relationship. This way, even if they go their separate paths, both parties wouldn’t suffer any losses or be sad.
