Cheng Nuo was confused and asked, "What does Mr. Shao mean? I don't understand."

Shao Qing raised his hand to remove his eyes from his face and then casually threw them onto the table. He raised his hand to pinch his eyebrows, and his slightly nearsighted eyes, because he wasn't wearing glasses and slightly squinted, weren't sharp like when they first met.

"I'll sign you. I'll help you glorify all of your paintings. To be frank, I'll give you money and you can paint for me. Of course, the name you drew would still be you!" I can also help you pay off the money you owe so that you won't have to worry about what happens in the future. " He made it clear that he wanted her to make up her mind in front of Cheng Nuo.

Cheng Nuo thought for a while and asked, "What should I do?"

A trace of praise flashed within Shao Qing's eyes, then he said, "There will be a competition in two days, when the time comes you only need to participate."

Shao Qing put on her gold-rimmed glasses once again and returned to being astute and intelligent.

He stood up and extended his bony hand towards Cheng Nuo. Another smile appeared on his face as he said, "Miss Cheng, it's a pleasure to work with you!"

Cheng Nuo stared at that hand for two seconds before he slowly reached out his hand, "Mr. Shao, it's a pleasure to work with you."

The two days passed peacefully, but the calm before the storm was quickly broken by the competition.

"Cheng Nuo?!" Cheng Xin looked at Cheng Nuo, who was still in the middle of the ruckus, and a hint of surprise flashed across her eyes.

"What, you know him?!" The question from the friend beside her caused Cheng Xin to come back to her senses.

She softly said to her friend beside her, "En, you go sit first. I need to talk to her about something."

"Alright, come back quickly."

"Yes." Cheng Xin answered as she started walking towards Cheng Nuo.

"You're here to participate?!"

She turned around and saw Cheng Xin standing behind her. She didn't know what to do with Cheng Xin, so she could only smirk.

Cheng Xin raised her eyebrows as she looked at Cheng Nuo. Cheng Nuo's outfit today wasn't anything special, but it was indeed very suitable for her. However, the more well-dressed Cheng Nuo was and the more generous he acted, the more she loathed him!

"Right."

Hearing Cheng Nuo's affirmation, Cheng Xin couldn't help but laugh out loud. Today, she was wearing a red dress that was made very popular by some big brand. Her skin was even whiter than snow, and there was even a trace of moisture in her smiling eyes.

"Cheng Nuo, you're also participating in the competition?! Did I help you to get in here? You have to understand that you lost and lost face for Dad and Yi Yan! "

When Cheng Xin saw Cheng Nuo's painting, she felt a hint of fear. However, she would not lose, nor would she allow him to lose!

Therefore, she absolutely could not participate in this competition!

Cheng Nuo could see that there was not a single detail that Cheng Xin's words didn't contain. She was telling him that he would lose this match! Her hidden rebelliousness and self-confidence made her change from her previous retreat. She retorted, "Cheng Xin, no matter how I came in, I will win this match!"

Cheng Xin took half a step back in shock at the firmness in Cheng Nuo's eyes. She forced a smile on her face and pretended to be calm, "Then we will wait and see!"

Cheng Nuo watched as Cheng Xin turned around and left. His eyes were full of determination. "Cheng Xin, I won't let you off this time!"

Returning to her position, Cheng Xin held in her anger. When she saw Gu Yi Yin slowly walk towards her, a trace of malice flashed across her eyes. Cheng Nuo, if you don't want me to be alright, then don't even think about being alright!

"Yi Yan …"

Gu Yan didn't want to participate in the competition, but he didn't want to miss a chance to see Cheng Xin, so he decided to be patient.

The Cheng Xin of today made his eyes light up. She had changed from her usual plain color and was instead wearing such a bright colored dress. It really made his face look like it belonged to her.

However …

"Xin Er, what's wrong?!"

The red corners of Cheng Xin's eyes stung Gu Yiyan's heart. He hastened his steps and walked to Cheng Xin's side, whispering with concern.

"It's nothing …"

"What do you mean it's okay!?" Just a moment ago, Xin Er became like this when she saw that woman coming back. Really, I wonder what that woman said about Xin Er! "

"Alright, stop it!"

Cheng Xin interrupted her friend beside her. She then turned to Gu Yi and said, "Don't ask anymore, it's nothing …"

Upon seeing this, Gu Yi did not question Cheng Xin anymore. Instead, he turned to the woman beside him and asked, "The person Xin'er saw just now?!"

When the woman next to him saw that he was talking to Gu Yiyan, she hurriedly stood up and pointed at Cheng Nuo. "Oh, Mr. Gu. It's that girl. She's wearing …"

"Cheng Nuo?!" Gu Yiyan knew who she was the moment he saw her back. They had slept in the same bed for three years. Even if he didn't take her to heart, her memory of her figure was still fresh in his mind! However, why was she here?!

"Xin Er, you brought her in?!"

Hearing this, Cheng Xin was surprised, but she still blurted out the thoughts in her mind, "Didn't you bring her in?!"

Gu Yiyan was also stunned. Although this competition was not a famous competition, it was not something normal people could enter. How did Cheng Nuo get in?!

Soon, Cheng Nuo gave them his answer.

"Miss Cheng, long time no see!"

Cheng Nuo, who was admiring the paintings of others, turned his head and saw Shao Qing, who was still dressed in a suit and was extremely meticulous.

"Hello, Mr. Shao!"

Shao Qing glanced at Cheng Nuo, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a sincere smile as he praised, "As expected, painters have very unique eyes! Today's outfit is very suitable for you! "

Hearing this, Cheng Nuo felt slightly embarrassed. After all, from childhood until now, other than his own teacher who praised his own painting, only Shao Qing could sincerely praise him.

Cheng Nuo smiled, and replied in praise, "Mr. Shao is still very handsome today, and it suits your temperament."

While Cheng Nuo and Shao Qing were complimenting each other, Cheng Xin and Gu Yiyan had different expressions on their faces as they watched this scene.

Gu Yi Yan squinted and looked at Cheng Nuo, who was happily chatting with the other men. His eyes were full of coldness. Cheng Nuo, you're quite capable. You just left me and you've managed to hook up with another man before you even wipe your ass clean.

In Cheng Xin's eyes, there was a venomous aura that made people tremble. She stared at the man beside Cheng Nuo, and the jealousy in her heart for him deepened!

From the first time she saw him, Cheng Xin had felt that Shao Qing was the type of man she wanted. Two days ago, he told her that he'd dug up a good seed and she thought nothing of it.

"That man is …?"

He put on a look of disbelief, and was seriously injured. Looking at the place where Cheng Nuo and Shao Qing were, he lowered his head and replied, "His name is Shao Qing, he's my manager, but I don't know when he contacted Cheng Nuo …"

She seemed to have suddenly thought of something and muttered to herself, "Shao Qing must only be Cheng Nuo's natural talent in painting, there's nothing between them, it must be like this!"

However, her words didn't sound like it in Gu Yiyan's ears. He was even more certain of what he had just thought, and a surge of anger rose up in his heart. He didn't know where it came from, but he believed that it was because he was dissatisfied that Cheng Nuo had crawled into someone else's bed before their agreement could be completely annulled!

Everyone, please calm down, calm down. Right now in front of everyone, are all the paintings of this year's participants. This time, we will block all of the painters' signatures and let everyone vote according to their own preferences.

Cheng Nuo watched as the host finished his speech and then voted in a long line. He couldn't help but clench his fists and become nervous. Seeing Cheng Nuo's appearance, Shao Qing couldn't help but smile and comfort her, "Don't worry. With your painting skills, you should be able to enter the finals!"

Cheng Nuo looked at the long queue that was slowly getting shorter and said softly, "I will use your blessings!"

"Alright, now that the voting is over, let's take stock of the votes!" The host took out the final number of votes and announced loudly, "I announce the following to be the finalists: Tongping, Zhai Xian, Cheng Xin, Shao Koruo. The last person to enter is Cheng Nuo!"

When Cheng Nuo heard his name, a reckless smile appeared on his face. This was the first time she had participated in a competition and she had already entered the finals. This undoubtedly confirmed her feelings.

"Congratulations!"

Shao Qing looked at Cheng Nuo who had a face full of smiles and congratulated him in a low voice. Cheng Nuo was not stingy with his congratulations and replied, "Same here!"

The eyes of Cheng Xin, who knew that Cheng Nuo had entered the finals, turned cold. "Cheng Nuo, I, Cheng Xin, have not obtained what I want!" Just you wait!
