Chapter 1069: The Ancestor Never Expected It; His Character and Taste Aren’t Bad
The half-painted artwork that evokes restlessness and affection is clearly a famous scene from "Long Immortal Road" —After Nuwa was angered by Emperor Fu Xi, she tore his clothes, leaving him only with briefs for modesty, causing him to lose face in front of the Immortals.
The unfinished half of the painting naturally depicts Emperor Fu Xi’s scattered robes and Nuwa’s furious divine visage.
Zuzi watched with her delicate brows slightly furrowed, her eyes fluctuating with emotion, before replying to Bao Gucheng after a while: "The Ancestor never anticipated this."
She anticipated that Gu Qiusha wouldn’t be in danger but didn’t foresee Nangong Mo’s shamelessness in wanting to paint such a scene in his own house, admiring it day and night.
Is he insane?
Gu Qiusha jumped down from the sandalwood chair, her cheeks still flushed with the excitement and thrill of creation: "Zuzi, I didn’t expect it either, you know? The hardcore fan ’Jiangshan Rhymes in Ink’ who sponsored my reader meet-up was actually Fourth Master. I used to think Fourth Master was a Demon and mistakenly thought she conspired with Gu Shiyin, but now it seems he isn’t quite like the rumors..."
Gu Yuzhi’s face changed as he listened: "Sha Sha! He’s just a perverted Demon! Otherwise, why would he bring you here?"
Gu Qiusha pursed her lips, a bit stunned: "But during the fan meeting mishap, he was the one who escorted me away... Fourth Master was courteous all along and politely asked me to help him complete a painting for his home renovation. He, he meant no harm..."
Gu Yuzhi looked at his honest and naïve sister, feeling both angry and unable to scold her, he could only try to quietly remind her: "He’s definitely not a good person. Have you ever seen a good person keep sharks at home for no reason?"
Gu Qiusha bit her lip: "His behavior is indeed unique, but he has quite a taste..."
"What’s so tasteful about it!"
"The books he reads are decent."
Gu Qiusha pointed to the row of sandalwood bookshelves on the other side of the white wall.
Gu Yuzhi glanced over, the corner of his lips twitching: "..." They were all different versions, collections, volumes, and merchandises of Sha Sha’s manga... He indeed appeared to be a genuine book fan.
But why couldn’t he believe it?
Nangong Mo, a grown man, would be obsessed with young girl’s manga to that extent?
The entire underground study was piled with manga, not to mention he even painted a whole white wall with famous scenes from the books?
Unless Nangong Mo had transmigrated from being a woman, he wouldn’t believe it!
"Lawyer Gu, as a legal professional, isn’t it time for some reflection on such deep prejudices?"
A man’s voice came from the staircase leading to the basement.
Nangong Mo was holding a teacup, his lips carrying a mocking smile, and the teacup in his hand had the style of a wine glass.
If it weren’t for his unruly and mischievous conduct, there indeed was something charming about his stance and demeanor.
Gu Yuzhi gritted his teeth: "I won’t believe you. Sha Sha, let’s go!"
He suspected the person who sent the threatening text earlier at the meet-up might have been Nangong Mo.
Since the meet-up was funded by Nangong Mo, it would be his people who’d have more opportunity to cause trouble on site.
Why else would the timing be so coincidental, threatening him while snatching Sha Sha away, it was like stirring up trouble on both ends.
Upon hearing this, Gu Qiusha felt a bit awkward and whispered: "Brother, one must keep their promises. I’ve already agreed to help Fourth Master finish painting this wall, and anyway, he’s provided plenty of sponsorship; I also feel somewhat indebted to him..."
Gu Yuzhi: "...!"
Now he wants to throw money at Nangong Mo’s face and tell him to get lost, we don’t want your money!
