The Devoted Second Male Lead Decided to Favor Someone Else

Chapter 2: genius painter

It only took fifteen minutes to walk to the school gate, and the car to pick up Lu Shijin hadn't arrived yet.

Lu Shijin was bored waiting for the bus.

"Convenience store, open your system mall and let me see what's inside."

Just along the way, 711 argued that Lu Shijin should respect its dignity as a system and not give it such a cheap-sounding nickname.

But Lu Shijin said that calling it this way can indicate closeness. Besides, 711 was originally a convenience store, so I can only blame it for picking the wrong number.

711 no **** said.

711 pulled out the system mall panel, which was filled with various skill cards.

Some people know how to use them just by looking at their names, such as "Little Master Cooking Card", "Sound into the Heart Card", "Glamour Halo Card", etc.;

Some should be skill cards, such as "hypnosis card", "mind reading card", "amnestic card", etc.;

Some of them are rather strange. They are gray and locked, and they seem to be unusable. The names are also very strange.

Lu Shijin asked 711: "What do these gray cards mean?"

711: "The card is gray, which means it cannot be used in the current scenario."

Lu Shijin understands that each plot has a different background, and the cards are used in accordance with the background settings.

It's just like you can't hold a magic wand and shout "Avada Suomin" to the gods and monsters in the world of immortality.

After browsing the system mall, Lu Shijin said succinctly, "A mind-reading card will be arranged."

711 was shocked. The mind-reading technique was used before the plot began. Is it so sloppy?

"The mind-reading card is only valid for 6 hours once used, and there are five opportunities to use the card for free. Do you not think about it anymore, host?"

Lu Shijin: "Don't think about it, know yourself and your enemy, and you will be safe in a hundred battles. Haven't you heard of this idiom?"

711 could only laugh dryly, "Haha, I've heard of it."

My heart is crying, it's over, following this host, it can be foreseen that it will be difficult to "consolidate" in the future!

"The mind-reading card has been redeemed, and the number of times of use is 1. It will take effect immediately, and will expire after six hours. After using it, you can read the other party's inner thoughts by looking directly into the other party's eyes."

Just after redeeming the card, Secretary Hao's car stopped at the school gate.

Secretary Hao got out of the car. He was about 30 years old, his hair was neatly combed, and his face with Chinese characters was rigid, like an emotionless puppet.

"Hello, Secretary Hao."

711 was amazed at the host's acting skills. The moment before, he had the world-weary face of "don't mess with me". The moment he saw Secretary Hao, he returned to the innocence and harmlessness of the original owner of silly Bai Tian.

Secretary Hao glanced at Lu Shijin, was indifferent to Lu Shijin's bright smile, and helped him open the car door with no expression.

"Hello Mr. Lu, please get in the car, Mr. Huo is waiting for you in Yuyuan."

[The little stand-in still doesn't know what he is about to face. If you know that the person who Mr. Huo put on his heart is back, can you still laugh? 】

When Lu Shijin heard what Secretary Hao said in his heart, the hand pulling the car door paused, then raised his chin and stared at Secretary Hao with a smile instead of a smile.

"What's the matter, Mr. Lu, is there anything else?"

Secretary Hao was stared at by Lu Shijin, so he was dazzled?

He actually saw a trace of pity in Lu Shijin's eyes.

[No, how can I need mercy, the little stand-in is the poor **** who is kept in the dark. 】

[It's just a gadget that President Huo teased on a whim. Oh, it's not even a canary raised by an ordinary gold master. 】

Secretary Hao complained expressionlessly in his heart, but he didn't know that Lu Shijin could hear his innermost thoughts clearly.

"It's okay." Lu Shijin raised a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, glanced at the man from top to bottom, his eyes showed appreciation, "I just think Secretary Hao, you are very handsome today, are you exercising recently? You have a good body. Woolen cloth."

The surprise in Secretary Hao's eyes flashed.

[The little substitute used to be full of eyes full of Mr. Huo, how could he suddenly praise me today? It seems that my charm is not inferior to Mr. Huo. 】

However, as a professional secretary, you have to be humble.

"I follow Mr. Huo. I am usually busy with work and have no time to exercise. If Mr. Lu has nothing else to do, we can go."

[The little stand-in has a good eye, but unfortunately, it's just a brainless vase. 】

Secretary Hao closed the car door for Lu Shijin and returned to the cab with his chest raised up like a proud cock.

He didn't notice the sarcasm slowly emerging from Lu Shijin's lips behind him.

I don't know what I'm about to face, it's you.

According to the original plot, the relationship between Lu Shijin and Huo Qi changed after Ruan Siheng returned to China.

Ruan Siheng suffered some blows abroad, so when he picked up the brush, his mind was blank, and he could no longer paint on canvas.

By chance, Ruan Siheng visited Huo Qi's house and saw the paintings left by Lu Shijin.

Lu Shijin's talent in painting is not inferior to Ruan Siheng, and he thinks that he is in love with Huo Qi, and his love with Huo Qi is the source of all his inspiration.

Lu Shijin's works are bold and innovative, contain strong emotions, and have distinct personal characteristics.

Inspiration is the life of an artist.

And this is exactly what Ruan Siheng needs and desires most.

Ruan Siheng asked Huo Qi who painted these paintings. He liked the things expressed in these paintings and wanted to communicate with the painter face to face.

Ruan Siheng, such a proud person, would never allow anyone to use others as his stand-in.

Huo Qi understood that if Ruan Siheng knew of Lu Shijin's existence, it would be impossible for him and Ruan Siheng anymore.

Naturally, Huo Qi didn't tell the truth, but just told Ruan Siheng that the copyright of these paintings had been bought by him. If Ruan Siheng liked it, he could take it back for reference.

Ruan Siheng happily took away Lu Shijin's painting, and Huo Qi was also happy that his favorability with Ruan Siheng had skyrocketed.

Lu Shijin was the only one who was kept in the dark.

Huo Qi still has a conscience. Although he took Lu Shijin's painting and gave it to Ruan Siheng, he didn't want to take it for nothing.

He and Lu Shijin proposed that they are willing to buy the copyrights of Lu Shijin's paintings at the asking price of the first-class painters in the circle.

But at that time, Lu Shijin was just a fool who was carried away by love. He thought that his lover liked his paintings, and he thought that he had found a confidant, where would he want Huo Qi's money.

Lu Shijin was confused as a shooter for Ruan Siheng until Ruan Siheng was reported by his opponent as plagiarizing other people's ideas. The media followed the clues and dug up Lu Shijin, who was still studying, and compared the two's works.

It can be said that the inspiration of a work collided by accident, and it is impossible to say that all of them collided.

Lu Shijin had never encountered such a thing before, so frightened, he could only cry to Huo Qi.

But he didn't know that his tears were worthless in Huo Qi's eyes, not as much as Ruan Siheng's frown.

Huo Qi said: "Nowadays, you go to clarify with the media that Ruan Siheng did not plagiarize, these works were completed by you together."

Lu Shijin couldn't believe that Huo Qi would make such a request to himself.

Lu Shijin: "Why? But he did plagiarize my works! You have seen those paintings, and I gave them to you!"

"I know that since it was given to me, I have the right to do anything with it, right? I gave your painting to Ruan Siheng."

"You are a good boy, you should know the importance. Ruan Siheng finally regained his strength. I will not allow anyone to destroy him."

Huo Qi's voice was so cold that Lu Shijin felt as if he had never known this person before.

Lu Shijin wanted to ask him: what about me? Do you have the heart to destroy me?

Lu Shijin's crying only made Huo Qi upset, he was anxious to finish Lu Shijin, and then went to comfort his Bai Yueguang.

Huo Qi's expression was indifferent: "Nowadays, Ruan Siheng doesn't know that those paintings are yours. He did it unintentionally. If there is a mistake, it is also my fault, and I will compensate you. Haven't you always wanted to study abroad? As long as you help Ruan Siheng this time , the best school, the best teacher, I will arrange it for you."

Although Lu Shijin was simple, he understood what Huo Qi meant.

Coercion and enticing, two-pronged approach, Huo Qi really did everything for Ruan Siheng.

Even if Lu Shijin is reluctant, he can't compete with Huo Qi's methods.

Over the years, everything he has been controlled by Huo Qi, if he doesn't agree, Huo Qi only needs to move a finger to deal with him.

Then his studies, his dreams, including his love, all became a bubble.

Secretary Hao sent Lu Shijin to the hotel, and Huo Qi was waiting for Lu Shijin in the restaurant on the top floor.

Taking the elevator upstairs, 711 warned Lu Shijin worriedly: "Don't do anything that hurts the protagonist, otherwise the plot of this world will collapse, and your mission will never be completed."

Lu Shijin: "Do you think I'm someone who is reckless?"

711: The baby feels like but the baby dare not say it.

Facts have proved that 711's worries are completely superfluous.

The moment he opened the box door and saw Huo Qi, Lu Shijin had transformed into an infatuated little white rabbit just like the original owner.

"Huo Qi, I'm here, have you waited for a long time?"

Huo Qi was sitting at the dining table, bowing his head and sending messages to others.

Lu Shijin didn't feel that he was being treated coldly. He pulled out the chair and sat down by himself, looking at the man without hesitation.

The tailored handmade suit wraps the man's sturdy figure, and every pleat fits the man's smooth muscle curve.

As the protagonist, of course Huo Qi also has a handsome face with deep eye sockets, a high nose and thin lips, and he exudes the charm of a mature man.

No wonder Lu Shijin slammed into Huo Qi's gentle trap.

After several minutes, Huo Qi finished sending the message with others, and finally looked up and noticed Lu Shijin sitting opposite him.

The tenderness in his eyes that had not yet disappeared was accurately captured by Lu Shijin.

[A Ruan finally came back and can't wait to see him. 】

Lu Shijin, who could hear Huo Qi's inner voice, remained calm, just like countless times before, he smiled and looked into Huo Qi's eyes, his eyes full of love.

And Huo Qimei looked at the face that looked like Ruan Siheng, and his eyebrows narrowed without a trace.

After a second, the man staggered his gaze without any hesitation.

[It would be great if the person sitting in front of me was A Ruan. 】

[If A Ruan would look at me with such eyes, it would be worth it even if I died. 】

The author has something to say: Jin Jin: Then you will die :)
