Chapter 438

Lu Xiaoya had changed into a white dress with blue flowers, her long hair draped wet over her back, and there was still a blush on her face after taking a hot bath.

Since she couldn't sleep before her hair was dry, Lu Xiaoya went into Su Xinghui's room and chatted with him casually.

Lu Xiaoya saw the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone on Su Xinghui's table and asked curiously, "Xinghui, are the paintings you draw all done here?"

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Yeah, they're all done here."

Lu Xiaoya said, "Can you let me watch you paint?"

Su Xinghui said, "A painting can't be finished in one day."

Lu Xiaoya said, "It doesn't matter. Aren't I staying here for a few days? Can you finish it in these few days?"

Su Xinghui thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but what do you want me to paint? How about I paint you? You be my model for these few days."

Lu Xiaoya's face turned red again, but she nodded and said, "Okay."

Su Xinghui let Lu Xiaoya sit on a chair, ground the ink, laid out the rice paper, and held the brush, looking at Lu Xiaoya.

Lu Xiaoya sat casually on the chair, her wet long hair draped behind her head, her face dignified, looking like a young lady from a wealthy family, but that wet long hair gave her a lazy charm, which was truly moving.

Su Xinghui felt his mouth go dry, but he tried hard to collect his thoughts, calmed himself down, and then put the first stroke on the rice paper.

Painting is actually a simple thing to say, but also a very difficult thing.

It's simple because as long as the painter has a solid foundation, it's too easy to paint a picture, and one can even finish a painting in just one day, but such a person can only be called a painter.

It's difficult because if the painter really wants to create a good work, they must pour their own emotions into it. Painting like this is also a huge consumption of the author's mind. Every stroke cannot be sloppy. As long as there is one bad stroke, the painting is ruined.

Because of this, Su Xinghui painted very slowly. He often had to look at Lu Xiaoya for several minutes before putting a stroke on the paper.

After more than an hour, Su Xinghui said, "Xiaoya, tired, right? Rest early, let's paint again tomorrow."

Lu Xiaoya had sat motionless for more than an hour, and she was indeed a bit tired. Her long hair was also dry, so she stood up and stretched, which was simply the most beautiful scenery, making Su Xinghui stunned again.

After stretching, Lu Xiaoya wanted to come up to see Su Xinghui's painting, but Su Xinghui said, "Wait until it's finished to see it."

Lu Xiaoya smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll wait until you finish painting to see it."

Su Xinghui said, "Then go back to your room and rest, we'll go down to the village to report tomorrow morning."

This night, Su Xinghui didn't sleep well. He tossed and turned in bed for a long time before falling asleep. However, early the next morning, he woke up very early, got up to exercise, went out to eat breakfast, and brought back a portion for Lu Xiaoya.

It wasn't until he brought back breakfast that Lu Xiaoya woke up with sleepy eyes. Seeing the breakfast Su Xinghui brought back, she smiled sweetly, "Thank you!"

After Lu Xiaoya washed up and finished breakfast, Su Xinghui greeted Dong Jianshu, started the township government's new jeep, and took Lu Xiaoya down to the village.

Lu Xiaoya was a provincial party newspaper reporter and was here to report on Meng Hu Ling, so it was appropriate to have this treatment.

As the car drove out of the township government gate, Lu Xiaoya saw the Mercedes-Benz again. It was still parked at the township government gate like a lingering ghost.

Actually, when Su Xinghui went out for a run and breakfast in the morning, he had already seen this car, but he still ignored it.

Seeing Lu Xiaoya's brows tightly locked, Su Xinghui said, "Xiaoya, don't take him to heart, just pretend he doesn't exist. He can't follow us for these few days, right?"

Lu Xiaoya turned to look at him and nodded gently.

Su Xinghui said, "Let's go to Wild Boar Gully first. It's developing well now, and a pharmaceutical factory is almost finished."

Lu Xiaoya nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to Wild Boar Gully. I haven't seen Xia Zhu for a long time, I miss her quite a bit."

Su Xinghui said, "Okay, then let's go to Wild Boar Gully."

Su Xinghui skillfully stepped on the clutch, shifted gears, stepped on the gas, and the jeep drove towards Wild Boar Gully. His skillful movements surprised Lu Xiaoya, "Xinghui, when did you learn to drive? Your driving level is quite good!"

Su Xinghui said, "I learned it at the end of last year."

Lu Xiaoya said, "That's only half a year, and you drive this well?"

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "I'm a genius!"

Lu Xiaoya said, "Don't be so full of yourself!"

Su Xinghui laughed.

At this time, Lu Xiaoya looked back, and Su Xinghui also saw in the rearview mirror that Tian Xiaotao's Mercedes-Benz had followed again. He couldn't help but shake his head secretly, but he just pretended not to see it, stepped on the gas, and the jeep rushed out.

Su Xinghui's driving skills were quite good, but the road conditions were poor, and the jeep's shock absorption was also poor, so he couldn't drive too fast, otherwise the car would be too bumpy. Therefore, although the Mercedes-Benz was briefly left behind for a distance, it soon caught up again.

After a few minutes, the car arrived at Wild Boar Gully Village. Su Xinghui parked the car at the village committee gate, and the Mercedes-Benz also stopped next to the jeep.

Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya got out of the car. In the village committee, Gao Daping came out. Seeing Su Xinghui, he said happily, "Township Head Su is here. Are you driving yourself today?"

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Why? Can't I drive?"

Gao Daping said repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes."

Su Xinghui pointed to Lu Xiaoya and said, "Accountant Gao, this is Reporter Lu Xiaoya from the Lake East Daily. She's here in Wild Boar Gully Village today to report on the economic development situation here. Where are your Party Secretary Fang and Director Zhao?"
