Chapter 2 Gentle Nobleman, Please Save My Sad Heart 5
Meatball came to my feet with a grin on its face. I had only read three pages when it began to crawl up my pants.
I have so much to do, how can I play with you! Okay, okay, you can rub my feet! But... you can't rub your snot bubbles on my legs!
I said with a fierce face: "No, if you do this again I will tickle you! Ouch! Don't lick me, it's so itchy, hahahaha..."
Meatball's scaly skin rubbed against me, the touch was very special, and I got goose bumps all over my body. It played for a while, and finally crawled away.
However, with it making such a fuss, I couldn't concentrate at all. Just looking at the densely packed words on the notebook made me feel dizzy.
Time was ticking away, and I was about to fall asleep. My head was nodding, and I was so sleepy that I couldn't even open my eyes...
Suddenly, a small blue flower appeared in front of my eyes, and then an enlarged lizard face came closer, less than two centimeters away from my eyes.
"ah!"
It was so scary! I could only scream to express my fear.
"what's your name?"
Xia Senshi turned around, looking unhappy at being disturbed. His heroic eyebrows were furrowed and his handsome lips were pursed into a line.
I calmed down and said timidly, "I'm sorry, I...I was scared by the meatballs. "
"Girls yelling is so annoying. Have you finished memorizing everything I asked you to memorize?" He raised an eyebrow and asked me unhappily.
"Not yet, not yet. I've only read the tenth page. The notes are too long..."
Yan Dingding, you clearly knew that Xia Senshi was going to be angry, so how could you still tell the truth? Look, his face has become so bad and scary!
"Why do you always go wrong in every mission assigned to you? Now you can't even do the simplest thing of not disturbing me? If you can't stay, just leave!"
Seeing me being scolded, Rouwan lay aside awkwardly like a child who had made a mistake, and rubbed my feet when Xia Senshi wasn't paying attention.
Come on! You're the one who got me scolded, Meatball!
Xia Senshi was really angry this time, his whole face became as cold as ice, as if in his eyes, I was a bag of garbage that should be thrown away.
My hands involuntarily clenched the corners of my clothes. I recalled the bad luck that had happened in the past two days, and a flame suddenly burned in my heart.
"Xia Senshi!" I couldn't help but retort, "I've already said that I was just scared. Do you think I want to bother you here and recite these messed up things? You forced me to do it!"
Xia Senshi was slightly startled, and a sarcastic expression appeared on his handsome face. He narrowed his eyes and said sharply, "This is indeed my mistake. If I had discovered earlier that your painting skills are actually similar to those of a three-year-old child, I really wouldn't have spent so much effort to let you be my assistant."
As he said that, he casually clicked on a webpage, and on it was the comic strip I had previously drawn that imitated "Firefly Forest".
Xia Senshi commented mercilessly: "The background buildings are drawn quite normally, but look at the lines of the characters, they are a mess, and their hair looks like noodles."
I was outraged that he mocked my comics!
Yes, I admit that I draw badly, but those are all the results of my hard work, stroke by stroke!
Xia Senshi seemed to be a little out of control. Even when Rouwan took the opportunity to slip onto his lap and act coquettishly, he completely ignored her.
"I see that you only have a little passion for comics, but that's the most useless thing. What's important is talent. Without talent, you're nothing."
When he criticized me like this, I felt a "boom" in my head, a warm current rushed into my eyes, and tears welled up in my eyes.
"I advise you to give up as soon as possible..."
Xia Senshi suddenly froze and couldn't say anything.
Yan Dingding, why are you crying? Why do you want to show weakness in front of the person who hurt you? Stop crying! It's so annoying!
Although I told myself this in my heart, my tears still flowed uncontrollably. This was the first time I was criticized so harshly. If I stayed in this place any longer, wouldn't it be too embarrassing?
I stumbled all the way to the door. I don't know why, but I turned back to look at Xia Senshi unwillingly. I don't know if it was because my eyes were blurry with tears, but there seemed to be a trace of guilt in his expression. Did he feel guilty because his tone was too harsh just now?
Bah, Yan Dingding, have you forgotten that you are nearsighted? How could you possibly see such a subtle change in his expression! Don't comfort yourself, he just totally despises you!
"Xia Senshi!" I was still unwilling to give in. I wiped my tears and said, "If you have the guts, tell me everything. How does my comic look like something drawn by a three-year-old?"
Ultimately, it’s because my skills are not good enough. The more he said this, the more I wanted to figure out my weaknesses.
Xia Senshi was stunned for a moment before saying, "Do you really want to know?"
"Otherwise I would rush over to beat you up right now, why are you still talking nonsense here!"
My tone was murderous, and Rouwan was so scared that he fell off Xia Senshi's knees.
Xia Senshi didn't expect me to explode suddenly, and said blankly: "There is a problem with the proportions of the characters you drew. Although the faces are very delicate, the overall look is very strange. Also, although the background is good, it is always out of tune. For example, the male protagonist appears in the school, but the background behind him is a candy house. And the color matching, that old-fashioned combination is simply..."
"That's enough! Shut up! We can save the rest for next time!"
If you keep talking, my little heart will explode!
Woo woo woo…
It's so abominable, so abominable! He is indeed a great master. Even if he criticizes me to the point of being useless, I can only accept it with my heart, because everything he says is right!
"boom!"
I rushed out of the door and ran to my room without looking back. Xia Senshi seemed to be calling my name and Rouwan was hissing behind me, but I didn't want to look back at all.
Back in the room, I threw myself onto the soft bed, and my tears quickly soaked the pillow.
"Wow... Xia Senshi, you big bad bastard, am I really that bad at drawing? It makes me so angry!"
I cried for an unknown amount of time until my eyes became swollen and my head felt dizzy. Although I knew that my drawing skills were poor, I had to admit that I was a little complacent because a few people read my comics. Xia Senshi's words completely woke me up!
"In this case……"
I jumped out of bed, took out my laptop from the suitcase, connected it to the drawing tablet that I had bought with all my pocket money, opened the drawing software, and prepared to draw something.
Since Xia Senshi looks down on me so much, I will definitely draw for him! I don't believe that I have no talent and am good for nothing. As long as I practice every day, I will definitely be able to make up for my shortcomings one day!
Xia Senshi, just wait and see! I, Yan Dingding, will definitely make you regret it!
