Chapter 733 Why Don't You Be a Painter

Chapter 733 Why Don't You Be a Painter

Ever since Lu Shiyao met Cheng Xuan, Lu Shiyao had always thought that Cheng Xuan was a married man.

First, a man should be married at the age of 37. Second, Cheng Xuan is a very family-friendly man. How could a single man be so family-friendly nowadays.

Based on these two points, Lu Shiyao felt that Cheng Xuan must be married. As for why he hadn't seen Cheng Xuan's wife, it must be because Cheng Xuan's wife often traveled on business or something.

Cheng Xuan was embarrassed for a while, before he could speak.

The heartless Lu Shiyao added another sentence: "You said you are already in your forties, why don't you hurry up and have a child? Don't turn around, you are about to be a grandfather, so you can become a father."

What Cheng Xuan said made him feel even more ashamed.

Is he single?
Embarrassed, he drank a glass of wine in one gulp.

"Brother Xuan, what's the matter? Am I wrong? Could it be that you and your sister-in-law are DINKs?"

There are quite a lot of DINK families now, and Lu Shiyao can understand.

"I... I'm not... I'm not married yet."

After arguing for a long time, Lu Shiyao always thought that he was married!
No wonder she never showed any interest in him!
Cheng Xuan felt as if a knife had been stabbed in his heart.

Now it's Lu Shiyao's turn to be embarrassed, she has been arguing for a long time that she is not married, and in the end she even has a child!Nima, I really want to bite off my tongue!

"Hey, brother Xuan, you, you, don't get me wrong, actually I don't mean anything else, I just think you are..."

"Like an uncle, isn't it?"

Cheng Xuan will never forget that Lu Shiyao called him "Uncle" the first time he saw him, which was a [-]-point crit for a single man like him.

"No, no, no, it's not like uncle, but I think you are a good man at home. Looking around, the men nowadays are generally only married men who take care of their families like this, and there are even some married men. Those who are not in tune, like my younger brother."

(Lu Tianye: I couldn't help but sneezed, who am I messing with? I was shot while lying down)
Lu Shiyao hurriedly began to bear fruit, and she also knew that people would not like to hear her talk like this.

"But, Brother Xuan, why do you live alone? Don't you almost always live with your parents if you're not married?"

Lu Shiyao hastily changed the subject.

Unexpectedly, this question was a [-]-point crit for Cheng Xuan.

Cheng Xuan's face was flushed from drinking, and he put down his glass, feeling as if he had a lot of emotions to vent.

"I don't have parents."

"No... no parents?"

Generally, if my parents passed away, others would answer that my parents must be gone. Who would directly say that I don’t have parents?

"Little Lu, aren't you curious, why did I change my career to be a chef when I was a talented art student?"

Lu Shiyao was quite strange at the beginning. Looking at these paintings by Cheng Xuan, he should be a very talented person. Maybe he will become a famous painter if he develops well, but he ended up as a chef.

Anyone would be very curious. Lu Shiyao always wanted to ask, but she always felt that it involved some kind of privacy.

"why?"

"My father is a chef. He is a very good chef. He used to work in a high-end restaurant with a good salary. He met my mother in the restaurant, and the two got married later."

Lu Shiyao put down her chopsticks and quietly listened to Cheng Xuan's story.

"My mother is a very sentimental person in her life. She likes to raise some flowers and plants, likes to raise cats and dogs. She always keeps the house very clean, and she will also ingeniously decorate the house to be more elegant."

Lu Shiyao looked around the house now, so Cheng Xuan inherited his mother's taste in order to keep the house so clean and tidy.

"Then are you living happily?"

"It was like this at the beginning, but then my father's restaurant was ordered to close because of an accident. My father was unemployed and prepared to start his own business, so he opened a small restaurant, but the business was too difficult. A restaurant is not a chef. You can make money with your skills.”

"..."

"My mother used to be an administrator of an art gallery. Although she didn't make much money, my mother liked the job very much. But in order to save the cost of the restaurant, my father asked my mother to help out in the restaurant. The two had a big fight, and finally It was my mother who compromised, but the restaurant business is getting worse and worse, and my father's mood is bad every day."

The expression on Cheng Xuan's face became more and more painful.

"Then they always quarreled, especially after my father drank, he even smashed all the flowers and plants raised by my mother. He said that he couldn't eat, and he had to serve these things. Until one day, my mother Go with someone."

"gone?"

Lu Shiyao didn't quite understand this expression.

"I ran away with a man," Cheng Xuan said very reluctantly, "I still remember that year when I was 12 years old, the night my mother was leaving, she hugged me for a long time, and she said she couldn't make it through Yes, she wants a new life, and that man can give her a new life."

"Then why didn't you stop her?"

"She was in too much pain, why should I stop her? She left that day and never came back."

"Then do you still have contact?"

Cheng Xuan took a sip of his wine and sighed, "When I was in college, I once received a letter from her. There was no address on it, but there was a photo of her family of three. She and that man were together without a certificate. and a daughter was born, they looked very happy, and my mother smiled brightly."

Lu Shiyao nodded.

"After my mother left, my father was always drinking for a long time. He felt that the reason why my mother left him was because he thought he was poor and worthless. I was 12 years old. In fact, I often followed my father at that time and learned Cooking, I want to inherit my father's business, but my father firmly disagrees, he forces me to learn painting."

"So you learned to draw?"

"That's right, he would beat me when he saw me cooking. He tried his best to run the restaurant so that I could learn to paint. He thought being a chef was worthless and had no money. When I was in my senior year, my dad Passed away, he got liver cancer because of drinking. He felt that my mother left him because he was a chef and he had no money until he died, but I don't think so."

Cheng Xuan looked at Lu Shiyao, "I just want to prove to him that being a chef can be promising, so after I graduated, I went to learn to cook, and when I won the first international award, I went to his grave After seeing him, I just want to tell him that there is no career that is looked down upon in this world, only people who are looked down upon!"

Looking at Cheng Xuan's firm gaze, Lu Shiyao lost her mind for a moment.
