Chapter 358 - Yuan Wanxia Sends the Painting Again
Chapter 358: Yuan Wanxia Sends the Painting Again
Xia Wanyuan did not speak, and Jun Shiling walked beside her without saying a word. Their footsteps echoed in the long corridor, and Jun Shiling’s heart grew heavier.
“I…” Jun Shiling was about to explain to Xia Wanyuan when he felt a jade-like hand holding his.
Jun Shiling subconsciously clenched his fists. He turned around and saw Xia Wanyuan’s cold side profile.
“Do you think I’m very scary?” Jun Shiling asked carefully.
The corners of Xia Wanyuan’s lips curled up as she looked at Jun Shiling. “No, you’re very good.”
She was not an innocent young lady. She knew that pure light could not reach Jun Shiling’s current position.
It was just like the politics she had experienced in her previous life. Under the brilliance, there were countless political treacherousities, countless open plots, and hidden schemes. Behind the final avenue of flowers, there was an unknown number of mountains of corpses and seas of bones.
She was not so timid that she would deny this person just because she saw Jun Shiling’s dark side.
No matter how much darkness was around Jun Shiling, she knew that he was holding up a light.
Seeing the calmness in Xia Wanyuan’s eyes, Jun Shiling’s heart warmed and he pulled her into his arms.
Behind Xia Wanyuan, who could not see, Jun Shiling’s eyes flashed with a dark light.
Xia Wanyuan was so nice. Thinking of how Zheng Yun actually wanted to treat her in that way, Jun Shiling’s heart could not help but be filled with intense darkness.
He would not allow anyone to defile Xia Wanyuan, not even the slightest bit.
Xia Wanyuan reached out and patted Jun Shiling’s back comfortingly. “I’ve already punished him. Don’t be too angry, okay?”
“Mm.” Jun Shiling’s gloomy voice came. “Why are there always so many people coveting you?”
Xia Wanyuan laughed. “Aren’t you here? I’ll be fine.”
If Xia Wanyuan had not come just now, Jun Shiling would have really had extreme thoughts. However, after Xia Wanyuan’s few words of comfort, Jun Shiling finally decided to spare Zheng Yun’s life and only placed him under house arrest in Prison Seven.
“I’ll send you back.”
“Okay.”
From afar, Bo Xiao saw Jun Shiling accompanying Xia Wanyuan with a gentle expression. He knew that with Xia Wanyuan taking action, this matter would be settled.
Jun Shiling looked up and glanced at Bo Xiao. Bo Xiao’s heart turned cold and he forced an ugly smile.
Oh my god, will my Brother not kill Zheng Yun but instead silence me? Bo Xiao looked at Xia Wanyuan pleadingly.
Xia Wanyuan’s little finger hooked on Jun Shiling’s palm. When he met Xia Wanyuan’s smiling eyes, the agitation in Jun Shiling’s heart was calmed.
Bo Xiao watched helplessly as Jun Shiling was pacified by an angry tiger. His admiration for Xia Wanyuan was indescribable.
Tsk, tsk. What does it mean by tempered steel becomes soft? This is it!
Looking at Xia Wanyuan’s expression now, it was as if he was looking at a life-saving talisman. If he provoked Jun Shiling in the future, he would definitely be able to hide from Xia Wanyuan.

After returning to the manor, Jun Shiling was still a little worried that his actions just now would make Xia Wanyuan feel conflicted. He was even gentler and more considerate than before. He wished he could not even let Xia Wanyuan walk by herself.
Xia Wanyuan wanted to get up and move around, but Jun Shiling stopped her. “What do you want to take? I’ll help you.”
Xia Wanyuan wanted to laugh. How could she not tell that Jun Shiling was feeling uneasy? She waved at Jun Shiling, and he leaned closer.
“CEO Jun, you underestimate me.” Xia Wanyuan wrapped her arms around Jun Shiling’s neck. “What I like is you. It won’t change because of anything else, so you don’t have to worry so much.”
After Xia Wanyuan finished speaking, Jun Shiling raised his hand and hugged her tighter. “Repeat the 1236 words you said just now.”
Xia Wanyuan was stunned.
1236?
I like you?
Xia Wanyuan’s face flushed red. She had only wanted to comfort Jun Shiling and had said it in a moment of desperation. She had not thought so much.
“I’m going to draw,” Xia Wanyuan said, about to push Jun Shiling away.
However, Jun Shiling turned around and pressed her down on the sofa. “Be good. Say it once and I’ll let you go up.”
At that moment, the two of them were very close. Xia Wanyuan could clearly see the joy in Jun Shiling’s eyes and the stubborn anger that had not completely subsided.
Xia Wanyuan herself felt that it was incredible. How could Jun Shiling like her so much? She could feel that tangible love surrounding her.
Although Jun Shiling often said that he loved her, Xia Wanyuan was still a little shy. She had never even said that she liked him, but now, looking at the yearning in Jun Shiling’s eyes,
Xia Wanyuan thought to herself*, It’s just a few words. If it can make him happy, what can’t I say?*
“I said, I like you,” Xia Wanyuan looked into Jun Shiling’s eyes and said softly.
Then, she could clearly feel Jun Shiling’s heart racing.
“I like you too.” Jun Shiling’s eyes were shockingly bright. He lowered his head and exchanged a gentle kiss with Xia Wanyuan.
At the entrance not far away, Uncle Wang wanted to bring people in to clean up the place. When he saw the two people on the sofa, his old face flushed.
“Come back later. Leave first.”
Why didn’t I see that my young master was so passionate since he was young? Damn, young people are still so hot-tempered in the middle of the day.
——
Those words were too lethal to Jun Shiling. After hugging and kissing her on the sofa, he still felt that it was not enough. He coaxed Xia Wanyuan into the bedroom and drank the meat soup again.
“I don’t believe you anymore.” Xia Wanyuan glared at Jun Shiling coquettishly.
This man had always said that five minutes was enough. Five minutes was enough. In the end, no matter how many five minutes passed, he still was not done.
“I’ll pack up and go to the company. Go and draw.” After eating and drinking his fill, Jun Shiling kissed Xia Wanyuan’s cheek in satisfaction. “Tell me what you want to eat. I’ll bring it back for you.”
“Hmph.” Xia Wanyuan snorted softly and got off the bed with red ears. Jun Shiling smiled like a satisfied tiger behind her.

After Yuan Wanxia posted the painting of the Heavenly Spirit Princess the previous time, she had disappeared. Everyone was calling out to Yuan Wanxia on Weibo hoping that she could post some more works to let everyone see.
It was time to routinely urge them to draw again today. Everyone clicked on Yuan Wanxia’s Weibo to take a look and was surprised to find that Yuan Wanxia had actually posted a new post!
This time, Yuan Wanxia posted two posts. One of them was a teaching video of a conventional painting of the mountains and rivers. Everyone could not help but praise it. It was indeed the work of a master!
The other dynamic was a modern hand-drawn painting that Xia Wanyuan had practiced.
This time, it was not the Heavenly Spirit Princess, but a woman from the Republic of China who was wearing a cheongsam and walking in the smoke.
