Later on, Tong Xi became acquainted with Gu Zhengming.
Despite Gu Zhengming still being reticent, she chattered around him like a little sparrow.
He was a very quiet person, never went out, and aside from reading, he spent his time painting and writing on paper, which she found odd.
"Why don't you go out and have fun? Join everyone at the waterside catching fish, it's so much fun! Come with me!"
"No!" He flatly refused.
Tong Xi felt it was boring, "What are you drawing?"
She turned her head to look at his sketchbook and found various animals drawn with exquisite detail.
"How about I model for you, and you draw a picture of me!"
Tong Xi said cheerfully.
She thought, if he can draw animals so realistically, he must be good at drawing people too.
So, she moved a small stool to sit across from Gu Zhengming, resting her chin in her hands.
"I'm all set, you can start now!"
Seeing her like that, Gu Zhengming was somewhat helpless but still drew a picture of her.
