As soon as Zayne left, Angeline stared at The Plum in the Golden Vase in a daze.
After moving into his rental place, Jay's world became peaceful and quiet.
He was neither provoked by the fishermen nor harassed by Angeline.
The house was enveloped in silence every day.
Even so, he felt extremely lonely.
There seemed to be missing a piece in his heart, making his heart feel empty.
He bought many books, painting supplies, and a piano for himself.
His schedule was packed full of things he needed to learn, and his knowledge soon advanced by leaps and bounds. He thought it was really strange as he was able to grasp most of the information in the book after just reading it once. Furthermore, he was able to learn by analogy and infer other things from one fact and master the subject through a comprehensive study of surrounding areas.
On this day, he was seized by a whim and set up a drawing board. After mixing the colors, he started painting.
There was a white sheet of paper in front of him. He
lifted his paintbrush yet did not know what landscape to paint.
In the end, he simply allowed the paintbrush to flow with his feelings.
The end result was a portrait of magnificent colors. When he saw the portrait on the paper, he was stupefied.
The girl in the portrait had long straight hair that reached her waist, her eyebrows like mountains in the distance, her eyes the color of obsidian, her nose tiny and lifted, her complexion fair, and her lips crimson.
Her palm-sized face looked like that of an innocent child who was not familiar with the ways of the world. With her eyes staring at him, she looked as gentle as a harmless little pet.
Her smile was beautiful and sweet, looking too beautiful to be absorbed all at once!
An indulging smile emanated from his eyes gradually.
Such otherworldly beauty who looked as demure as a maiden and brisk as a rabbit was probably only found in heaven, right?
It was the weekend when Baby Zetty gave him a call.
