The two women walked towards Zhou Chen who was painting. When they got closer, they couldn't help but slow down and stopped talking, for fear of disturbing Zhou Chen who was painting.
The two of them came behind Zhou Chen and quietly looked at the painting that was slowly taking shape on the drawing board.
Because he came to the capital for work, Zhou Chen just bought a set of painting tools. He only came here today to draw and sketch, and did not bring any paints or anything like that.
Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing were just there to join in the fun, but when they saw Zhou Chen's painting skills, they couldn't help but stop and watch the completion of a painting seriously.
Soon, a simple arch bridge pattern appeared. Although it was just a simple sketch, it looked lifelike. The most important thing was that it was drawn very quickly.
Chen Nanxing's eyes shone with light, and his gaze shifted from the paintings on the drawing board to Zhou Chen.
Just looking at it, I was immediately surprised. This painter turned out to be a neat, handsome, and charming man.
If she had met such a handsome man who could draw in the past, she might have approached him and struck up a conversation.
But when she thought of her current situation, her originally bright eyes instantly dimmed.
Xu Hongdou, who focused most of his attention on Chen Nanxing, noticed the change in her friend's mood and pushed her gently.
Chen Nanxing then showed a bright smile. Even though his face was pale and bloodless, the smile was still very familiar to Xu Hongdou.
"Handsome guy, can you draw a portrait here? I can give you money."
Zhou Chen raised his head when he heard the voice. In fact, he knew someone was standing behind him just now, but he was immersed in painting and didn't pay attention.
Now that he heard the other party talking to him, he slowly turned his head.
When he saw the two people behind him, especially Xu Hongdou, his expression became particularly stunned.
Having experienced so many film and television worlds and lived for so many years, in this ordinary modern society, there are very few things that particularly shock him.
But at this moment, his heart was really shocked, because the woman in front of him really looked so much like Zhao Pan'er.
At the same time, a prompt appeared in the system, waking Zhou Chen out of his daze. He instantly understood why the system reacted. It seemed that the two women in front of him must be the main characters in the film and television world he traveled through this time.
"Handsome guy, I have a question for you."
After adjusting his mentality, Zhou Chen came back to his senses and looked at Chen Nanxing who was speaking.
"You can paint, but the money doesn't matter. Which of you wants to paint?"
Chen Nanxing suddenly smiled: "Can we go together?"
"certainly."
Zhou Chen nodded, then pointed to a pavilion in the park: "Is it okay to go to the pavilion?"
"No problem, no problem." Chen Nanxing nodded repeatedly.
Seeing that she agreed, Zhou Chen stood up and put away the easel and bench. Chen Nanxing said very discerningly: "I will help you get it."
With that said, he helped Zhou Chen pick up the stool and backpack, while Zhou Chen took the easel and walked to the pavilion together.
Chen Nanxing, who was walking behind, touched Xu Hongdou and said, "Hongdou, did you see that handsome guy was staring at you just now? He must have been fascinated by your beauty. Do you want to leave a message later?"
Contact us, maybe we can have a sweet love."
Xu Hongdou said angrily: "I am not a prosperous and beautiful woman, I am just an ordinary older working woman. Stop talking nonsense."
How can she be in the mood to fall in love now? Her biggest concern now is Chen Nanxing. She has terminal pancreatic cancer and may die at any time. She just wants to spend more time with Chen Nanxing.
"Hey, you're so boring."
Chen Nanxing looked unhappy. She also knew that her friend was concerned about her, but she wanted her friend to be happier.
"He will paint our portraits later. Remember to smile. I don't want to see you looking sad."
"I know." Xu Hongdou responded.
When they arrived at the pavilion, Zhou Chen asked them to sit in a well-lit area. Then he sat not far across from them and looked at the two women carefully.
"Handsome man, please tell me how long it will take? Can we move?"
"In less than ten minutes, you can move, as long as you point your face towards me."
A simple sketch, without coloring or anything, is really a very simple thing for Zhou Chen.
He had never thought about painting people's portraits, but what made these two women extraordinary?
Looking at Chen Nanxing and Xu Hongdou carefully, perhaps Zhou Chen's gaze was too direct. Looking at Zhou Chen's handsome and angular face, the two women felt a little uncomfortable.
Especially Xu Hongdou, she always felt that the way the painter looked at her was strange, with an indescribable feeling, as if they were friends who had known each other for a long time and were very close, and they felt like they were reunited after a long absence.
This feeling made her feel ridiculous, because she was a hotel lobby manager and her memory was very good, especially in terms of remembering people, which she had developed through training.
She was sure that she absolutely did not recognize the painter in front of her, so she quickly returned to normal, but her eyes still did not have much direct contact with Zhou Chen.
The reason why Zhou Chen stayed longer on Xu Hongdou was naturally because of her appearance. This similar appearance made some memories that had been buried deep in his heart become more profound.
Although the appearance of Chen Nanxing next to her is slightly inferior, she is actually very beautiful, but her face lacks the color of a normal person and is very pale.
In fact, when he saw Chen Nanxing, Zhou Chen had already noticed something was wrong with her. This woman seemed to be suffering from a serious disease, and her spirit, blood and body seemed to be lacking.
After a few minutes, he finally started to write. As soon as he started writing, he quickly entered the state and his expression became extremely serious.
Because they were facing Zhou Chen, Xu Hongdou and Chen Nanxing could naturally see Zhou Chen's appearance at this time.
They all say that serious men are very attractive, especially handsome and charming mature men like Zhou Chen, who unconsciously caught their eyes.
After a few minutes, Zhou Chen finally stopped the painting brush in his hand.
"alright."
Chen Nanxing breathed a sigh of relief as soon as she heard it. Although Zhou Chen had just said that she could move, she was still afraid of affecting Zhou Chen, so she had been restraining herself. Now that it was done, she could finally move as she pleased.
She immediately stood up and ran to Zhou Chen.
"Let me see."
Zhou Chen picked up the portrait and handed it to her. Chen Nanxing took it and looked at it, and her eyes widened immediately.
"It seems."
She didn't have much idea about her own portrait, but when she saw the face on the drawing paper that was very similar to Xu Hongdou's, she couldn't help but exclaimed.
Xu Hongdou came over and took a look, her face was also shocked, and she saw that they were all smiling happily in the painting.
Although it was just a simple sketch, it was very similar to her and Chen Nanxing. If it could be colored, it would definitely be more realistic. She didn't expect Zhou Chen's painting skills to be so powerful.
"It's really a good painting."
Hearing their compliments, Zhou Chen smiled slightly: "Thank you, it's mainly because you two are good-looking that I can draw so well."
Chen Nanxing put away the portrait with a smile and said: "Handsome man, you painted us so well, I'd better pay."
Zhou Chen waved his hand and said: "No, I just like painting, not to make money."
"That's so embarrassing."
Chen Nanxing really liked this portrait, and he would still feel bad if he accepted it in vain.
"It's okay. I'm satisfied if you like and approve of my paintings. If you don't mind, we can increase each other's prestige. If you need it in the future, you can still come to me."
When he said this, his eyes involuntarily fell on Xu Hongdou.
Regardless of Xu Hongdou's appearance or whether they activated the system, he had to find a way to leave his contact information.
Chen Nanxing's sharp eyes immediately spotted the clues, so he said with a smile: "Okay, then let's leave a prestige, Hongdou, give me your mobile phone."
Xu Hongdou refused: "Don't you have a mobile phone? I'll just keep it for you. I'll forget it."
But Chen Nanxing snatched her cell phone and muttered: "This handsome guy can draw so well and he still confiscates our money. He is such a nice guy. What's wrong with adding prestige?"
Involuntarily, Xu Hongdou opened Xu Hongdou's phone, found the QR code, and asked Zhou Chen to scan it.
Zhou Chen naturally would not miss this opportunity. Originally, his target was Xu Hongdou, and he could see that Chen Nanxing intended to help him.
Soon Chen Nanxing agreed, and he also added Xu Hongdou’s authoritative contact information.
"Handsome guy, if you have anything to do in the future, you can send Xu Hongdou a message. I'm very optimistic about you."
Chen Nanxing also made a cheering gesture to Zhou Chen, but Xu Hongdou quickly controlled him.
"Sir, thank you for painting our portrait today. We have something else to do, so we will leave first."
"Okay, we will contact you later."
Zhou Chen waved his hand and watched Chen Nanxing being pulled away by Xu Hongdou, with a smile on his lips.
Contact information has also been added, making it much easier to find someone. He must pay special attention to this woman named Xu Hongdou.
Chen Nanxing was pulled away by Xu Hongdou with the painting in her hand, which made her very dissatisfied.
"Hongdou, why are you in such a hurry? I want to chat a little more with the handsome painter. By the way, I haven't asked the handsome guy his name yet."
"Chen Nanxing, can you stop being such a nymphomaniac and give me my prestige to him? Why don't you give it to yourself?"
"I want to give it to myself, but you also know what my situation is now. Isn't it harming others if I give it to him? What's more, I see that handsome guy has been staring at you. He must be attracted to you. You are so anxious.
Why are you running?"
"Chen Nanxing, I don't allow you to say such things, you will definitely be fine." Xu Hongdou's eyes suddenly turned red.
Chen Nanxing said calmly: "Stop being like this. I'm used to it myself. Hongdou, I really think that handsome painter is quite good. Did you see what he was wearing? They are all big brands. You can tell at a glance."
I know the conditions are good. You are already thirty and it’s time to think about your own problems. Do you still remember how many years it has been since you were in love?"
"Oh, please stop talking."
Xu Hongdou said helplessly: "He may be quite good, but I don't like artists. I always feel that such people are too arrogant and ungrounded."
Chen Nanxing rolled his eyes: "You have never been in contact with him, how do you know he is not down-to-earth? I think he is quite good. Why don't we make a bet to see if the painter will take the initiative to contact you?"
"What's the risk in this?"
"Just for fun, take a gamble, I think he will definitely contact you, the way he looked at you was different just now."
Xu Hongdou could only say: "Okay, then I'll bet that he won't take the initiative to contact me."
Chen Nanxing said proudly: "Then I must win."
"That can be..."
Xu Hongdou hadn't finished saying the word "maybe" when her cell phone suddenly rang. When she picked it up and looked at it, she suddenly felt helpless.
"Okay, you win, he really sent the message."
"Yeah, I knew it."
Chen Nanxing shouted excitedly, and then asked: "Look what he posted."
Xu Hongdou suddenly frowned: "Did he really see it?"
It turned out that the message from Zhou Chen was actually reminding her that Chen Nanxing looked sick and asked her to pay more attention.
Chen Nanxing stretched his head over: "What did you say?"
Xu Hongdou handed her the phone. When Chen Nanxing saw the content sent by Zhou Chen, she immediately fell silent, and her good mood suddenly disappeared.
"This man's eyes are pretty good. Just give him a reply and say thank you for his concern."
Seeing Chen Nanxing's serious look, Xu Hongdou nodded and said "thank you".
At this time, Zhou Chen was studying system tasks.
Host: Zhou Chen
Attributes
…………
Skill;
…………
Nine out of ten gambles will result in loss: After the host activates this skill, if the host participates in any form of gambling activities, he will definitely lose nine games in a row, and he will definitely win in the last game.
Mission: Live in Yunmiao Village for more than a year and help Xu Hongdou get out of trouble and get back on his feet.
Judging from the mission introduction, there is only one mission, but this mission actually has two requirements. One is to live in Yunmiao Village for more than one year, and the other is to help Xu Hongdou get out of the predicament and get back on his feet.
Seeing this mission, Zhou Chen immediately thought of Xu Hongdou, whom he had just met. It seemed that his guess was right. Xu Hongdou should be an important role in this world, and she was most likely the heroine.
As for this task, it is relatively simple. As long as Yunmiao Village is not a mountain of swords and fire, it will definitely be no problem to live there for more than a year.
As for helping Xu Hongdou get out of trouble and get back on her feet, although he still doesn't know what happened to her, he will definitely go to Xu Hongdou, so as long as he finds the cause and prescribes the right medicine, this shouldn't be too difficult.
After looking at the mission and thinking about it carefully, he determined that the film and television world he traveled through this time was probably something he had never seen before.
