"Different painting methods will express emotions differently. Mr. Liang can go back and compare them carefully to see the specific differences between the two paintings," Wu Chang reminded.
Liang Tan took another look and still felt that there was no difference, but he didn't say it explicitly. He just smiled and agreed.
After saying goodbye to Wu Chang and Zhou Cang, she took Cui Ling out.
Zhou Cang watched the two of them leave, then turned around and chatted with Wu Chang: "Why do I feel that Master Cui doesn't like me?"
"Isn't this obvious?" Wu Chang said bluntly.
Zhou Cang was helpless: "I didn't offend him, did I?"
"You like Mr. Liang, so it's not an offense?" Wu Chang asked back.
Zhou Cang became more and more confused: "What does this have to do with Mr. Liang?"
"You've been with me for so many years. Even if you've never held a paintbrush, you should have a certain appreciation for paintings, right?" Wu Chang glanced at him. "Didn't you take a photo of Cui Ling's painting of holding hands as a backup? Why don't you take some time to study it more?"
Zhou Cang frowned when he heard this and immediately pulled out the painting from his mobile phone.
After receiving the painting before, he just glanced at it casually and concluded with his keen intuition that the painting was not simple. Then he immediately handed it to Wu Chang. He himself did not study it too much. This time, after listening to Wu Chang's words, he observed it carefully for the first time.
The camera captured the painting very clearly, without blurring any detail. The two hands above are of different sizes and show different muscularity. The big hand obviously looks stronger, but when the wrist is grasped by the small hand, it presents a posture of absolute submission.
Be obedient, follow the lead, and accept your fate.
The worst thing was that the more he looked at these two hands, the more familiar they seemed.
"It's the hands of Cui Ling and Liang Tan." Wu Chang woke him up.
Zhou Cang was shocked: "How is this possible... Isn't Master Cui autistic?"
"He is autistic, but not stupid," Wu Chang said with a sigh. "Perhaps his single life experience cannot tell him the exact name of this kind of emotion, but he can still express it through instinct."
Zhou Cang still didn't give up: "...Are you sure that he loves Liang Tan, and not family or friendship? After all, all three kinds of emotions will produce jealousy and possession, and the way they are expressed is actually similar. You can't just judge that he has a romantic relationship with Liang Tan just because he is an adult male and Liang Tan is an adult female, and they are not related by blood, right?"
"Family and friendship can both give rise to jealousy and possessiveness, but only love calls for unconditional obedience," Wu Chang said lightly.
Zhou Cang was suddenly speechless.
"Now you know why people don't like you, right?" Wu Chang smiled.
Zhou Cang came back to his senses: "You even specifically reminded me... Your bias is too obvious. I have followed you for ten years, and you actually sided with him just because he is a so-called genius?"
"That's not the case. I just want to see you get humiliated."
Zhou Cang: “…”
After Wu Chang finished joking, he felt relieved: "I'm just reminding you that there are so many good girls in the world. It's not necessary to have her, so don't insist."
"I didn't say I would insist... I can still tell that Ms. Liang doesn't have any feelings for me," Zhou Cang paused for three seconds after speaking, "but I think she doesn't have any feelings for Master Cui either."
Wu Chang paused and said, "Well, just treat him as a child."
"Are you worried that she will affect Master Cui's creative state?" After all, they had been together for ten years, and Zhou Cang could tell at a glance what he was worried about.
Wu Chang sighed: "It's not surprising that the Muse becomes an inspiration killer."
"So what are you going to do?" Zhou Cang crossed his arms.
Wu Chang paused and said, "If necessary, I think it would be a good idea for Cui Ling to withdraw from the current environment."
Liang Tan and Cui Ling entered the elevator one after another. As soon as they walked in, several people came. Liang Tan subconsciously wanted to hold his hand, but when he thought of the housekeeper's words, he held back.
Cui Ling waited for a long time but she didn't hold his hand. In the end, he could only follow her back silently. As a result, he ate half a bowl of rice less than usual at dinner.
After dinner, they went back to their rooms. Liang Tan lay on the bed and recalled the scenes of getting along with Cui Ling today. After thinking about it three times, he was sure that he was a little too impatient. He should not avoid suspicion immediately because he realized that the child had grown up. Cui Ling was such a sensitive child, she must have noticed it, otherwise she would not be unhappy at night.
Starting from tomorrow, she should proceed step by step. On the first day, she will not hold his hand in the morning. On the second day, she will not hold his hand in the morning and at noon. At the same time, she will provide appropriate gender education and instill in him the basic moral rules that the world should follow.
Liang Tan thought about it for most of the night, and even got up to make a detailed plan before lying down to sleep.
The next morning, she began to strictly follow the schedule. When she sent him to class in the morning, she did not hold his hand, but reached out and touched his head. The next day, she did not hold his hand or touch his head in the morning, but when she came to have lunch with him at noon, she still had physical contact with him as usual. However, on the third day, she stopped having physical contact at noon.
Liang Tan thought he wouldn't be discovered by changing a little bit every day, but Cui Ling became visibly silent.
After he was absent-minded in class again, Wu Chang lost all patience: "Cui Ling, you can't even hold a paintbrush in your current state."
Cui Ling looked at him, and his figure was clearly reflected in his black pupils.
Facing such eyes, no matter how angry you are, it would be difficult to vent your anger. Wu Chang was discouraged for a second: "Tell me, what happened?"
Cui Ling moved his lips but didn't say anything.
"If you don't tell me, I don't know how to help you." Wu Chang threatened.
This sentence really worked for Cui Ling. He was silent for a long time before he spoke hesitantly: "Sister said that there are differences between men and women..."
With just six words, Wu Chang understood his current situation. For a moment, he didn't know whether to laugh or sympathize.
Cui Ling has been getting better and better recently, and has gradually opened up his closed heart. This progress is visible to their naked eyes. As a sister, Liang Tan is undoubtedly the most responsible one. In the process of Cui Ling coming out, she consciously instilled secular concepts, moral laws in him, but this sense of responsibility is not what Cui Ling wants.
After all, this means that Liang Tan has no other thoughts about him.
Wu Chang looked at Cui Ling in deep thought for a long time, and suddenly said, "Cui Ling, come with me to go abroad."
Cui Ling paused.
"My career is abroad. I have stayed here for too long and it is time for me to leave. You should come with me. A new environment may better stimulate your creative desire." Wu Chang spoke carefully, obviously having thought it through.
Cui Ling looked at him steadily, and after a long while, he shook his head: "No."
"You can't bear to leave Liang Tan, right?" Wu Chang had guessed his thoughts and had already prepared the answer. "I believe she can't bear to leave you either, but Cui Ling, is it really good to be together all the time? If you don't leave and grow up in a place where she can't see you, she will never be able to treat you as a real adult. Now she only has you by her side and can focus all her attention on you, but what about the future?"
In order to convince him, Wu Chang had to put the cruel reality in front of him, "Liang Tan is beautiful and rich, the type that many men would like. She is single now and only has eyes for you because she hasn't met a man she likes. If she meets one in the future, she may still care about you all the time, but what about you? Can you tolerate another man sleeping in the same bed with her, holding her hand, and being intimate with her?"
Cui Ling's eyes flashed with a trace of astonishment, and after a while he spoke with difficulty: "No..."
"Are you sure she won't?" Wu Chang asked back.
Seeing Cui Ling's face getting paler and paler, Wu Chang couldn't bear to force him: "Think about it carefully, you don't have to answer me now, I'll give you a week, come to me when you figure it out, I'll be waiting for you anytime."
Cui Ling lowered his eyes and did not respond.
Wu Chang did not force him. He handed him the sharpened pencil and asked him to practice drawing.
The afternoon passed in a flash, and Cui Ling stood at the door waiting for Liang Tan, but only the housekeeper came.
"Mr. Liang has a meeting to attend, so I have no choice but to pick you up," the housekeeper explained to Cui Ling, "Come on, Master Cui, let's go back."
After saying that, he took Cui Ling's things, said goodbye to Wu Chang, and turned to walk out. However, after taking a few steps, he looked back as if he had realized something and found that Cui Ling was still standing there.
"Master Cui?" He was confused.
Wu Chang in the hotel took a sip of tea and then slowly said, "He is waiting for your Mr. Liang."
"...But President Liang is in a meeting." The housekeeper had a headache. He never expected that Cui Ling would be stubborn at this time.
Wu Chang paused for a moment: "How long will it take her to finish?"
"Not sure, it was an emergency meeting." The butler explained.
Wu Chang shook his head helplessly: "Then we can only wait."
housekeeper:"……"
In the company, Liang Tan, who was in a meeting, sneezed and subconsciously wanted to pick up his mobile phone. However, when he reached out halfway, he remembered that he had thrown it outside.
She had already arranged for the housekeeper to pick him up, so it shouldn't be a problem. Liang Tan wasn't sure, as he was always absent-minded during meetings.
Liang Tan's meeting lasted an unusually long time, and it didn't end until after eight o'clock in the evening.
After coming out of the conference room and taking out the phone, the first thing he did was to call the housekeeper: "Is Cui Ling still waiting for me to eat? Tell him not to worry, I'll be back soon..."
"Mr. Liang, he is still here with Mr. Wu." The housekeeper interrupted helplessly.
Liang Tan was stunned: "What do you mean? He didn't go home with you?"
"She refused to come with me and insisted on waiting for you to pick her up," the housekeeper sighed, "You'd better come soon."
...Wasn't it fine when I asked the housekeeper to pick her up before? Why did she suddenly refuse to do so today? Liang Tan didn't even have time to ask, so he hung up the phone in a hurry and rushed to the hotel.
It was the evening rush hour, and it was already nine o'clock when she arrived at the hotel. The temperature at night was ten degrees lower than during the sunny day. Liang Tan shivered as soon as she got out of the car. Fortunately, she quickly entered the hotel lobby and dispelled the cold.
She trotted up the stairs and turned two corners before appearing at the entrance of the long corridor in front of the suite: "Cui Ling!"
Cui Ling was standing at the door waiting for her. When he saw her, he stood up straighter: "Sister."
Liang Tan sighed, walked up to him and was about to take a closer look to see if anything had happened, but before he could take a closer look, he was hugged by him.
"...What's wrong?" Liang Tan patted his back soothingly. He could sense his resentment without even looking at his face.
"Sister, you are so bad." Cui Ling was tall, and he had to bend down slightly to hug her, like a big dog that felt wronged.
Hearing his calm accusation, Liang Tan couldn't help laughing: "Just because I didn't come to pick you up, I became a bad person? Cui Ling, have you been getting more irritable recently?"
Cui Ling’s response was to hug her even tighter.
Liang Tan resisted the urge to roll his eyes: "Stop squeezing me, my waist is about to break."
"...Master, it's time to go home." The housekeeper felt a little uncomfortable seeing them hugging each other, so he tried to persuade them.
Cui Ling turned a deaf ear to it.
"If you want to take it home, take it home and don't disturb my rest." Wu Chang, who was watching the fun in the room, suddenly spoke up.
"Be good and let go." Liang Tan also advised.
Cui Ling listened to these two people the most, but today after they persuaded him, he did not let go immediately. Instead, he held her for a while before letting go.
Liang Tan finally breathed the air of freedom, calmed down and looked at Wu Chang: "Mr. Wu, you can actually let Cui Ling wait in the room."
This is what it means that she feels sorry for her Cui Ling who has been guarding the door all the time.
Wu Chang snorted coldly: "Do I need to tell him what his temper is like?" If Cui Ling was willing to wait in the house, how could he let someone stand at the door all the time.
Liang Tan suddenly realized that it was not a good idea to make trouble. He said goodbye and left with Cui Ling.
The housekeeper ran to press the elevator button in advance. When the two arrived, the elevator door opened and the three of them walked in together.
As soon as he stood still, Cui Ling suddenly reached out to Liang Tan.
Liang Tan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and held his hand.
The housekeeper couldn't bear it any longer: "Master Cui, you are a boy and Ms. Liang is a girl, you can't hold hands."
"He's just a kid and doesn't understand anything." Liang Tan explained.
Seeing this, the housekeeper had no choice but to let her go.
The three of them returned home in silence. After dinner, Liang Tan sent Cui Ling back to the door of her room as usual.
"Go to bed early." Liang Tan said goodbye gently, then turned and walked towards her room. After walking a few steps, she suddenly felt something was wrong. When she turned around, she saw him following her.
"Go back to sleep." Liang Tan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Cui Lingdang acted as if he didn't hear her and continued to follow her. When he was almost at the door of her room, he walked past her and went inside.
Liang Tan realized what he was about to do and quickly pulled him back: "No."
Cui Ling stopped and looked at her intently.
"...No matter how pitiful you are, you can't sleep with me." Liang Tan felt soft-hearted for a moment, but in order to help him establish good values, he could only ignore this moment of soft-heartedness. "Remember what I told you about the difference between men and women? If you are not in a romantic relationship, you cannot sleep together."
"Yes." Cui Ling said only one word.
"No," Liang Tan remained firm, "Be good and go back to sleep."
Cui Ling stood at the door in a stalemate.
Liang Tan tried to persuade him several times but failed, so he could only harden his heart and go into the house and close the door in front of him.
When the door closed, she did not miss Cui Ling's hurt look as if she had been abandoned, and she suddenly felt a surge of discomfort in her heart. At this moment, she and Cui Ling were like a mother and son in the weaning period -
