Chapter 56 Painting Book

  The warm and beautiful May handed over its mission to June, and then took the spring breeze on vacation. As soon as June took office, it showed its full enthusiasm to the earth, and the temperature rose by 7 or 8 degrees. Summer poked out its head with joy.

  Tian Nuanyu suddenly remembered that the knitted vest she bought for Grandma Hao had not been delivered yet, and Xiaoyuxing's "little sister" must be very lonely, while her "little brother" had been left alone in her closet for many days.

  Tian Nuoyu felt a pang of guilt in her heart. Recently, due to her low mood, she had forgotten to visit Hao Nainai and Xiao Yuxing. She thought that once the matter of whether she could stay here was settled, she would definitely make time to go see them.

  Today was her last day of trial at Jingxue Mountain Villa, but Mu Ao Yun didn't look for her. At dinner time, Tian Nanyu deliberately observed Mu Ao Yun and Mu Yu Xin, and found that the father-daughter duo's attitude towards her was as usual without any abnormalities. She thought to herself, perhaps both of them had forgotten that her trial period was about to end.

  Tian Nuanyu thought that she could only ask him herself, but it wasn't suitable to discuss this at the dinner table. She decided to go find Mu Ao Yun in the study later.

  After dinner, Mu Ao Yun went straight to the study room. Mu Yu Xin has been quite obedient lately and returned to her own room after finishing her meal.

  Tian Nuanyu did not return to her own room, but instead went with Gui Shu and Zhong Shu to the Baiguo Garden.

  She had often heard Gu Jie mention Baiguo Garden, and Tian Nuanyu had wanted to take a look several times, but she never had the chance. Today was her last day of probation here, and if she didn't pass, she probably wouldn't have another opportunity to come back. When she heard Gu Jie say that they were going to Baiguo Garden after dinner, she asked Gu Jie to take her along to take a look, and Gu Jie readily agreed.

  The June dusk sky was bright and beautiful, yet not lacking in charm. The sun was infatuated with it, and the time to return home was much later than usual. As Tian Nuanyu followed Gui Shu and Zhong Shu from Baiguo Garden back to the mountain villa, the sun reluctantly set behind the mountains, taking three glances back before finally disappearing. At the moment of parting, it stole a kiss with the sky, causing the sky to blush bright red on one side of its face.

  After returning to the mountain villa, Gui and Zhong returned to their own residence. Tian Nuoyu stood at the door of the villa, staring at the shy sunset, dazed for a while.

  She remembered that her mother especially liked the sunset with colorful clouds, and often opened her painting folder at dusk to paint the sunset with her brush. Under her brush, the sunset was sometimes charming, sometimes shy, sometimes lively, and sometimes very quiet. Her mother said that the sunset is the expression of the sky, because the sky is alive.

  In her mother's eyes, all things in the world are alive.

  Tian Nuoyu let out a light sigh, recently for some reason, the nostalgia for her mother that had been sealed in her heart seemed to have been unsealed, overflowing her senses of touch and smell. Many things and scenes that met her eyes, even familiar smells, could evoke many memories of her mother.

  She had a feeling that her mother was standing beside her, no matter where she was or what she was doing, her mother was always with her.

  At this moment, she felt her mother standing shoulder to shoulder with her, admiring the beautiful sunset together. She also saw a faint smile on her mother's lips, and her own lips curled up into a smile as well.

  Tian Nuanyu turned around and pushed open the villa's large door, unexpectedly seeing Mu Ao Yun and Mu Yu Xing sitting on the sofa in the living room, with Mu Yu Xing holding something for Mu Ao Yun to flip through.

  Tian Nuanyu's gaze fell on the thing in Mu Yu Xin's hand, and the smile at the corner of her mouth stiffened, her heart suddenly thumping loudly.

  The painting book Mu Yu Xing was holding in her hand was exactly the one she had pressed under her pillow.

  "Dragonfly, come quickly!" Mu Yuexin exclaimed with a smile when she saw Tian Nuanyu return.

  This painting, Tian Nuoyu had never shown to anyone before, now seeing it in Mu Yuxin's hands, and not even with her consent, Tian Nuoyu felt a bit displeased. However, seeing Mu Yuxin's smiling face, as well as Mu Ao Yun also being there, she suppressed the unpleasant emotions in her heart. She walked over and sat down on the sofa opposite the father-daughter pair.

  "I just went to your room to find you, didn't see you, and happened to see this painting book on your bed, so I took it out and flipped through it. Dragonfly, I didn't know you could paint!" Mu Yu Xin said while flipping through the paintings in the book.

  Muyuxin saw Tian Nuoyu painting on this album a few days ago, and was curious to death at that time, wanting to know what Tian Nuoyu was painting, but thinking that Tian Nuoyu might still be angry with her, she didn't dare to investigate.

  After having a good dinner and returning to her room, she felt quite bored, so she ran to Tian Nuanyu's room. Not seeing the person, but just saw this painting book placed on the bedhead, flipped through it and found that it was all figure sketches. She even saw a portrait of herself inside. Overjoyed, she rushed out of the room thinking of going downstairs to find Tian Nuanyu, but saw Mu Ao Yun coming out of the study, so she pulled Mu Ao Yun to sit in the living room together to look at it.

  After Mu Yu Xing said that, Tian Nuan Yu suddenly remembered that after picking up Mu Yu Xing in the afternoon, she went back to her room to rest for a while. At that time, she took out her sketchbook and flipped through it for a bit before casually placing it beside her pillow.

  Tian Nuoyu felt a pang of regret in her heart for her carelessness, but the expression on her face was unnatural: "I just casually doodled during my free time, and it's not even good."

  "It's not bad at all, but rather extremely good, especially this one," Mu Yu Xin said admiringly, pointing to a painting in the album.

  Tian Nuoyu took a look, the painting was indeed Mu Yu Xin, it was also the first night she arrived at the mountain villa before going to bed, that day she saw Mu Yu Xin and left a deep impression on her mind, so she casually painted it.

  "Dragonfly, have you been learning to paint for a long time? Why have I never heard that you can paint?" Mu Yu Xin liked to investigate the things that made her curious.

  Tian Nuanyu's face stiffened after hearing this.
