The Daughter of the Enchanted in the Modern Age
Chapter 266
Xia Wanyuan's eyes flickered.
“You've been waiting here?”
"No." Wei Zimu smiled.
“I just got back from the outside. Sister Wanyuan, are you busy? ”
"What's the problem?" Wei Zimu asked doubtfully after seeing Xia Wanyuan's cold expression.
“I'll go to Continent F tomorrow for business trip. I'm afraid I won't be back for a month. If you are not busy, can we eat together?”
Wei Zimu was always gentle and warm, but Xia Wanyuan could see nervousness and anticipation in his eyes.
Looking at Wei Zimu's frozen hands, Xia Wanyuan nodded.
"okay."
***
In the meeting room, a WeChat message was heard. Everyone waited for Jun Shiling to finish reading the message before continuing the discussion.
Jun Shiling picked up the phone and looked at it.
“I'll have lunch with Wei Zimu in the afternoon. Lunch by yourself.” There is also a cat whining emoticon.
Jun Shiling was silent.
Seeing Jun Shiling was looking at his phone and not speaking, the finance minister carefully called out, saying,
"CEO Jun, about the proposal I just mentioned?"
"Bring it back and repeat."
“...” Others secretly light candles in their hearts.
***
With Xia Wanyuan's approval, Wei Zimu was very pleased.
"Then what do you like to eat? Chinese or Western Food? Where do you want to eat?”
"Everything's fine. You decide."
“OK, then I'll take you to my favorite restaurant. This ice powder will melt. Quick, try.” Wei Zimu held the sun umbrella for Xia Wanyuan to prevent the scorching afternoon sun from shining on her.
Xia Wanyuan admitted.
As he walked out of the Wei family's door, Wei Zimu's phone rang. He stopped in his tracks.
The phone kept ringing, but Wei Zimu did not answer the phone.
“Why don't you answer the phone?” Xia Wanyuan looked at Wei Zimu.
Only then did Wei Zimu pull out his phone and answer the call.
His tone was a little cold.
"understand."
After hanging up the phone, Wei Zimu looked at Xia Wanyuan.
“Sorry, wait for me for a moment. I forgot to bring something.”
"okay." Xia Wanyuan nodded.
Wei Zimu handed the umbrella to Xia Wanyuan and walked back to the Wei family. He pushed open the door of his room, and all the lights in the room were turned on.
"What's the problem?"
“My brother, you seem to have forgotten what you did in the Wei family? You are so free and even went to eat with him?” An equally gentle face turned around, but there was no warmth in his eyes.
“I've agreed to go to Continent F next week.” Wei Zimu frowned.
“Let me eat this food in your name. You are leaving for Continent F now.”
"You." Wei Zimu clenched his fists, but he knew that he could do nothing to his sister.
Two people walked in from behind, carrying her luggage and half driving her away.
“Let's just say I'm begging you. Can you let me eat with him before leaving? ” Wei Zimu hesitated for a while, but in the end, he turned around and softened his tone.
"How funny. My sister, who has always been arrogant, would actually beg me for a woman?? Then I don't want you to go any further.”
The person sitting in the room looked at Wei Zimu's softened expression with interest.
He had never seen his brother like this in his life.

In the Wei family home, Xia Wanyuan put down the ice powder after eating some bribes. After waiting for about ten minutes, Wei Zimu came out.
Seeing Wei Zimu walk out the door, he was still dressed like ten minutes ago, but Xia Wanyuan felt that there was something different. He frowned a little.
The afternoon sun shone on Wei Zimu, but there seemed to be no warmth at all. The strange feeling in Xia Wanyuan's heart came again.
“Saudari Wanyuan, let's go. What do you want to eat?” A soft voice rang out, and the discomfort in Xia Wanyuan's heart increased.
“I don't want to eat anymore. I'll be back.” With that, Xia Wanyuan turned around and walked towards her car, ignoring Wei Zimu.
After a series of sounds, Xia Wanyuan's car had left the place like an arrow.
The person standing at the door did not seem to expect Xia Wanyuan to leave directly.
He was stunned for a moment, then the corner of his lips curved up.
"A very sharp woman."

There was a smile on Jun Shiling's lips, but his tone was a little awkward.
"What's wrong? You have time to call me when you're having a meal with Brother Wei you?
"Jun Shiling, that's enough." Xia Wanyuan's helpless voice came from the phone.
“Don't rush to eat. I'll be at the office soon. Wait for me to eat together.”
"Oh, you only thought of me after you didn't want to eat with your Brother Wei?" Jun Shiling said wryly.
“Alright, I'll be back then.”
"No no no no. I was wrong, honey. I don't eat anymore. I'll wait for you." Hearing that Xia Wanyuan was going to return, Jun Shiling couldn't help it anymore.
Not long after, Xia Wanyuan arrived at the office.
In Jun Shiling's office, there had been no snacks or drinks for more than a decade. However, ever since Xia Wanyuan appeared, there were all sorts of snacks in the fridge in the office all year round.
As Xia Wanyuan sat down, Jun Shiling carried an ice-cold watermelon into Xia Wanyuan's mouth.
“Please eat. It's hot outside, right?”
Xia Wanyuan bit.
"This thought is so sweet."
"Thank you?" Jun Shiling leaned forward and exchanged a simple kiss with Xia Wanyuan.
“It is indeed quite sweet.”
Xia Wanyuan glared at Jun Shiling flirtatiously.
"It becomes acidic after you eat it."
“Hmph.” Thinking of Wei Zimu made Jun Shiling unhappy.
“CEO Jun, come and hug me.” Xia Wanyuan smiled and reached out to Jun Shiling.
Jun Shiling glanced at Xia Wanyuan helplessly, but in the end, he still reached out to hug and kiss her.
After eating, the unhappiness in Jun Shiling's heart had long since disappeared under Xia Wanyuan's centile behavior.
"Where's your painting?"
“What painting?” Xia Wanyuan was reading and did not understand what Jun Shiling was talking about.
"You drew it for me." Thinking of the image of the 'King of Seeing the World' Jun Shiling's heart surged with warmth.
“I use it to participate in competitions. Organizers said that they will send the painting back after three months.”
"Three months?" Jun Shiling frowned.
Hearing Jun Shiling's question, Xia Wanyuan finally reacted to Jun Shiling's thoughts. He took his eyes off the book.
“I will contact them later and see if I can get the painting back as soon as possible. If I really can't get it back, I'll draw another one for you.”
"No, I want that one." Jun Shiling was very persistent.
"Why?"
“It was the first painting you made for me. That one is different.”
Stunned by Jun Shiling's words, Xia Wanyuan put down her book.
"I'll call them now."
According to the procedure, these award-winning photographs will be authorized by the competition authorities to be placed in the exhibition hall at Cherry Blossoms for everyone to admire for three months.
Yuan Wanxia is the owner of the painting. It was fine for him to take it first. However, he had to complete the withdrawal procedure step by step.
However, neither the exhibition hall nor the competition staff had expected that Yuan Wanxia's "King of Seeing the World" would be so popular in just a few days.
Not only do the professionals love it, they also feel that painting techniques are used well.
Although the amateur hobbyists were unaware of any professional techniques, the aura contained in this painting shocked them. Every day, countless people came to the exhibition hall to see this painting.
When they heard that the painting "King Sees the World" would be drawn, it instantly aroused everyone's displeasure.
Many people, who had been preparing to see it because of its reputation, heard that the painting was going to be drawn, and they all asked the exhibition hall to return the tickets.
More and more people are returning tickets. In the end, it triggered a series of reports on foreign news websites.
The painting, which was sent from Chinese newspaper Qing University to attend the International Youth Painter Exchange, eventually attracted the attention of the foreign art of painting and calligraphy.
They had organized so many youth calligraphy and painting exchanges, but they had never seen a work that could cause such a huge impact in the Cherry Blossom Country exhibition hall.
After all, this exhibition hall is considered one of the top ten in Cherry Blossom. It contains the works of many famous masters.
Meanwhile, the work that came out of this youth exchange could actually suppress the limelight of so many masters. People in the world of painting and calligraphy were very confused.
Some painters rushed to the exhibition hall before the paintings were drawn.
At this sight, they were dumbfounded.
That night, a rather famous painter in Cherry Blossom uploaded a painting of the "King of Seeing the World" on the Fins and marked the official account of the "International Youth Painter Exchange".
“This exchange is very unfair. It is hard to imagine that China is actually shameless. It was impossible for this sharp brushstroke to be so experienced without decades of practice. The rating for this exchange cannot be calculated at all.
China is disgusting. They call themselves civilized ancient countries, but because they cannot win a championship, they find masterpieces to pretend to be young people. Absolutely outrageous.”
