Life 1984

Su Wan'er just agreed casually, thinking that they might not meet again in the future, and let the matter go.

Who would have thought that Li Yunhai was so anxious, as if it had been arranged in advance.

Ordinary people take one step at a time and think ten steps ahead, but Li Yunhai can take one step and think ten steps ahead.

Every word he said had a deep meaning, and it was very likely that he had set a big trap for you to fall into.

The first time Su Wan'er dealt with him, she was cheated.

She was in a dilemma at the moment. She had just promised someone something, so she couldn't go back on her word in front of so many leaders, right?

This is not her character or personality.

So she could only agree: "Okay, then, I have to prepare. My family needs to make arrangements."

"It's okay. I'll wait for you." Li Yunhai has a look on his face as if he has you in his grasp.

An artist like Su Wan'er who is inexperienced in the ways of the world, even if ten of them were put together, would still not be a match for Li Yunhai.

At this point, Su Wan'er could no longer find an excuse and could only say, "Okay!"

After lunch, Su Wan'er still had to go to the exhibition hall to paint in the afternoon.

In fact, all of her works have been bought out by Li Yunhai. If she paints on the spot, she can only produce a few paintings in a day, and their works cannot reach the level of masterpieces.

But this was an event organized by the government, and she was a specially invited artist. She needed to play a role in promoting the Wumen School of Painting, so she had no choice but to participate.

Li Yunhai had nothing to do, so he still came to the exhibition hall, walked around, and then watched Su Wan'er paint.

A beautiful painter like Su Wan'er is a gimmick in itself and is very attractive.

What's more, she is the inheritor of the Wumen School of Painting, and has her own traffic and fans, attracting a large number of audiences.

Someone asked, "How much does this painting cost?"

Li Yunhai shouted from the side: "Three thousand yuan per square foot."

Su Wan'er was surprised and asked, "Why are you quoting such an expensive price?"

Li Yunhai said: "Because I think it's worth the price."

Su Wan'er licked the ink in the sea of ​​ink with her brush and said, "So you only offered two thousand for my painting just now?"

Li Yunhai said: "Now your paintings are under my monopoly, I can ask for a sky-high price."

Su Wan'er said: "You still say you are not a painting dealer!"

Li Yunhai said with a smile: "Hey, I'm not a professional art dealer. I'm just helping you hype your paintings. For ordinary painters, paintings are only valuable after a hundred years. But I want to break this tradition and make your paintings valuable while you are still alive."

Su Wan'er said, "Whether a painting is valuable or not is not up to you to decide! The market has the final say."

Li Yunhai asked: "Do you understand the market?"

Su Wan'er shook her head and said, "I don't understand."

Li Yunhai said confidently: "I understand!"

Su Wan'er couldn't help but be stunned.

Li Yunhai put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "Just focus on painting and make excellent paintings. Leave the rest to me. I won't make any money from you. I will give you all the money I earn from the sales."

"Then what do you want?" Su Wan'er asked puzzledly.

Li Yunhai thought to himself, of course I am after you!
But he wouldn't say that, he just said: "I'm just having fun! It's fun!"

Of course, Su Wan'er couldn't understand what this billionaire was thinking.
Maybe he is really bored and wants to play with some art?

Li Yunhai watched her paint and asked, "Have you ever held an art exhibition?"

Su Wan'er said, "It has been opened."

"What level?"

"What level do you mean?"

"Is it the municipal level? Provincial level? National level? International level?"

"Ah? Then I have only held city-level art exhibitions, but I have participated in national-level art exhibitions, where I sent two works to participate."

"That won't work! How many works do you need to open an exhibition?"

"Generally speaking, 80 to 100 paintings! If it is a famous painter, 50 fine works are enough. The exhibition is not about quantity, but quality."

"That makes sense! Then I can hold a fine art exhibition with the paintings I bought."

"You want to hold a painting exhibition for me?"

"My pleasure!"

"But it's very expensive, and you may not be able to recoup your costs. I even lost money on the exhibition I held!"

"That's because you don't know how to operate. I told you that you are an artist, you only need to focus on artistic creation, and leave other things to professionals."

"Mr. Li, we just met by chance. I'm embarrassed that you're helping me like this."

"Sorry? Yeah, that's right. You don't want to owe favors to others, right? How about this, after the exhibition is successful, you can treat me to a meal!"

"what?"

"Don't want to?"

"I'm willing, but I think this is too incredible. Why are you helping me?"

"Because I like your work! Don't you know that the most precious thing for an artist is a soulmate? Isn't there a saying that goes like this? It's easy to get priceless treasures, but it's hard to find a lover! No, what I want to say is that it's easy to get ten thousand taels of gold, but it's hard to find a soulmate!"

"Mr. Li, you are quite funny."

"It depends on who I'm with. Some people think I'm very serious and never smile."

"Really? Oh, don't bother me, I can't draw well."

"So you are limited in your abilities and can't be fickle? It's rare to find such a loyal woman!"

Su Wan'er almost burst out laughing!
She stopped chatting with Li Yunhai and concentrated on painting.

A work of art can show mountains, rivers, people, bamboo forests and thatched cottages within a four-foot or six-foot piece of rice paper, and it can also distinguish the layers, near and far. Only when you have the mountains and rivers in mind can you paint well.

Li Yunhai thought to himself that it would be impossible for him to be so great.

In one afternoon, Su Wan'er painted a work, which was then bought by the obedient Li Yunhai.

"This won't work! The output is too low." Li Yunhai said while admiring the masterpiece.

"That's pretty fast! If I were to paint at home, it would take me several days to prepare a piece of work."

“Do you have any works at home?”

“Yes, but they are not considered high-quality.”

"It's not up to you to define whether something is a fine product or not. Let's go to your house and take a look."

"No need? You still want to buy it?"

"Well, the more the better. Can you invite me to your house for a cup of tea? You kicked me out last night!"

"I'm sorry, I mistook you for a painting dealer last night. I never deal with those art dealers."

"I understand! How about today? Can you invite me to be your wedding guest?"

"OK."

"Well, before I drink your tea, I'll treat you to a meal first!"

"No, I'll go home and eat."

"Call your family and tell them you're eating out."

"I don't have a phone."

"I have."

Su Wan'er's ability to jump into pits can never keep up with Li Yunhai's pace of digging pits.

She had no choice but to take the phone Li Yunhai handed her, call the landline at home, and say that she had an appointment outside.

After finishing the call, she returned the phone to Li Yunhai.

Li Yunhai took out a Tivoli 4th generation mobile phone from his briefcase, grabbed her hand and placed the phone in her palm.

Her hands are soft, her fingers are long and her skin is very white.

Su Wan'er asked in surprise, "Mr. Li, what are you doing?" Li Yunhai said, "I won't allow an artist as outstanding as you to not use our Plum Blossom phone under the sun. This is for you."

Su Wan'er held the phone and said helplessly, "Mr. Li, do you like to force things on others?"

Li Yunhai said: "Look at you, I want to give you everything."

Su Wan'er was too innocent to understand his implication, so she said, "But I won't accept it without merit."

Li Yunhai said, "Want to do meritorious service for me? There are plenty of opportunities! Didn't I just tell you? I'm going to help you hold an exhibition soon, and you have to help me promote it."

"Why am I still promoting you? The exhibition is mine."

"You're a busy man! And I'm the one running this, so you're helping me, too."

"Mr. Li, you are such an interesting person. You help me and thank me!"

"Yes, I am sometimes so weird. Do you like it?"

"Ah? I, I think it's okay! To me, I think you're quite interesting."

Li Yunhai invited her to Songhe Tower.

Xiao Taohong called and said, "Mr. Li, are you busy today and didn't come to see my performance? I specially reserved a front row seat for you."

"I'm sorry, I have something to do today." Li Yunhai said with a smile, "But even though I'm not here, my reward will not be less! I'm having dinner at Songhelou, come over! It's my treat."

"Really? Then I'll be welcome! Hehehe!"

"Come here quickly, I've ordered the food, you can eat when you come."

"Okay! I'll be there right away."

Li Yunhai put down his phone and said to Su Wan'er, "Do you know Xiao Taohong?"

"Well, she lives on the street next to us, and I sometimes go to see her perform."

"It's such a coincidence that I never met you once. But fate is so wonderful! If it's mine, it will always appear in front of me."

"Mr. Li, you speak so profoundly!"

“Not as profound as your paintings.”

Xiao Taohong arrived soon. She rode a bicycle and locked it outside the door. She walked in and was surprised to see Li Yunhai and Su Waner together. She said, "Ms. Su! You are here too! How come you and Mr. Li are together?"

Li Yunhai smiled and said, "I love hearing that! I've been with her for a whole day!"

Su Wan'er said, "I am attending an event held by the city, and Mr. Li is also here."

Xiao Taohong said, "No wonder! Mr. Li, you didn't even come to see my performance when there was a beautiful lady to accompany you."

Li Yunhai said: "I'll give you a reward."

Xiao Taohong shook her hands and said, "That's not possible. You haven't even seen my play. How about you come tomorrow?"

Li Yunhai said to Su Wan'er, "Tomorrow, I will invite you to watch Xiao Taohong's performance. You won't refuse Xiao Taohong's respect, right?"

Su Wan'er smiled without showing her teeth, gently covered her mouth with her hand, and said, "Mr. Li, I can't refuse."

Li Yunhai said to Xiao Taohong: "Hurry up and curry favor with her. She is a millionaire now."

Xiao Taohong looked at Su Wan'er in surprise: "Miss Su, what's going on? Have you made a fortune?"

Su Wan'er said, "How could that be? I can only take half of the money from those works, and the other half goes to the organizing committee. Besides, I still have to pay taxes, okay?"

Li Yunhai clicked his tongue twice: "Look, you don't want to cooperate with art dealers, but cooperate with profiteers! If I had known, I would not have bought your paintings at the exhibition."

Su Wan'er said, "You doubled the price, so I got what I deserved. If there was no organizing committee to organize this event, we wouldn't have met, don't you think?"

Li Yunhai said: "That makes sense. I have to thank the organizing committee. They are our matchmakers!"

Su Wan'er gradually got used to Li Yunhai's humor and no longer blushed or felt embarrassed.

Three people chatting and eating.

Li Yunhai's cell phone rang.

Chen Meilin said with displeasure: "Brother, you are not in the hotel again, are you going to play with that opera singer again?"

Li Yunhai laughed and said, "You are such a clever guy! You came back so early today? Don't you have any social events tonight?"

Chen Meilin said, "Yes! I was afraid that you would be bored in the hotel alone, so I came back after dinner! Li Youzhen is still drinking over there!"

Li Yunhai said: "Then you have a good rest in the hotel, I will come back to find you later."

Chen Meilin snorted: "Where are you? I want to see you right away!"

Li Yunhai had no choice but to tell where he was.

Chen Meilin took a taxi and arrived quickly.

As soon as she came in, she was attracted by Su Wan'er.

What an elegant and beautiful woman!

Even a girl like Chen Meilin couldn't help but sigh that this woman was so beautiful!

Su Wan'er also looked at Chen Meilin and smiled slightly.

Chen Meilin sat next to Li Yunhai and asked, "Brother, who is she?"

Li Yunhai said: "A friend."

Chen Meilin said: "No wonder you ignored me, it turns out you were attracted by the beauty! But this woman is so beautiful! Impeccable beauty!"

Li Yunhai said: "It shows that your aesthetic taste is very good."

He introduced the two of them.

Su Wan'er said, "Hello, Miss Chen."

Chen Meilin asked, "How old are you?"

Su Wan'er said: "I am 21 years old."

Chen Meilin said, "Then we are about the same. You are a little younger than me. You are so young, are you a great painter?"

Su Wan'er said, "My family forced me to learn painting since I was a child. I only know how to paint."

After dinner, Li Yunhai and his group came to Su Waner's house.

Today, Li Yunhai finally got to see the true appearance of Su’s residence.

This house is not particularly big. Compared with those mansions with dozens or hundreds of rooms, Su's house has only more than ten rooms. The front door faces the street and the garden is built behind the house.

The Su family doesn't have many members, and they don't have a nanny or anything like that.

Su Wan'er invited Li Yunhai and others to the living room to serve tea.

Li Yunhai asked: "Where are your parents?"

Su Wan'er smiled and said, "They always go out for a walk in the evening. At this time, they are playing outside!"

Li Yunhai said: "Look at your paintings."

Su Wan'er invited him to her study.

It's cleaner and tidier inside than I imagined.

Li Yunhai couldn't believe that this was a painting studio.

He laughed and said, "I thought studios were all messy, with books and study treasures piled everywhere. I didn't expect your study to be as clean and beautiful as you are!"

Su Wan'er smiled faintly and said, "I like a more elegant study. All my things have a certain place to be organized, so it doesn't look messy. When I'm painting, it's still very messy."

She brought over a small stool, stood on it, and took down a large stack of rice paper from the top of the bookshelf.

Suddenly, the stool shook.

Li Yunhai knew that she could hold on, but he still hugged her.

"Be careful, Miss Su." Li Yunhai hugged her around the waist and smiled slightly.

Su Wan'er blushed and said, "Put me down!"

Li Yunhai looked calm. He put her down, touched her nose, and said with a smile, "What a nice smell! Are these all your calligraphy works?"

Su Wan'er didn't know whether he was praising the person for smelling good or praising the ink for smelling good.
She raised her eyelids slightly, glanced at him, and suddenly asked: "Mr. Li, how old are you? Are you married?" (End of this chapter)
