“Why? Is it something that can’t be asked?”

Zi Yi knew that it was so from Lu Jingye’s expression and she straightforwardly said, “It doesn’t matter even if you don’t say it.”

In any case, this was unrelated to her and she was merely curious.

She did not expect Lu Jingye to answer her. “She wasn’t captured. She’s very cunning and good at changing her appearance. It’s not easy to capture her, but she was indeed seriously injured that night.”

Zi Yi thought for a moment and nodded.

Just then, the housekeeper along with the servants served breakfast.

After the meal, Zi Yi headed to art gallery.

The gallery was not yet open for the public, but Dou Zerui was already waiting for her outside. Seeing her arrival, he opened the door and led her inside.

Dou Xiangling was currently on the phone and they did not disturb her as they continued to head inside.

Dou Zerui said, “You can browse around first. The exhibition will start at 9.30 am. Some seniors and industry people Dou Xiangling has invited will continuously come in. If you have time, you can help to entertain them. But if you’re not accustomed to it, I’m not forcing you.”

Zi Yi glanced at him and asked, “Have you switched on the scene simulator these days?”

“We’ve tried operating it several times after Dou Xiangling hung up all her paintings.”

Zi Yi nodded. “Then switch it on first. I will do a check.”

“Ok.”

Dou Zerui personally went over to switch on the scene simulator.

Zi Yi casually looked through Dou Xiangling’s paintings.

The paintings Dou Xiangling had displayed for this exhibition were all related to landscapes. There were many beautiful sceneries of various countries.

She had strong painting skills and her love for nature could be discerned from every single painting.

Zi Yi browsed through for a moment and walked to the painting that was completed at Senior Bai’s place.

“Senior Bai said that we have also contributed to how perfect this painting ended up and so, he gifted it to us.”

Zi Yi tilted her head and saw Dou Xiangling who walked over with a big smile. “This painting coincidentally matches the theme of your exhibition well too.”

“That’s right.”

The two of them stood before the painting and Dou Xiangling said, “Apart from people from the art’s circle, collectors will also be visiting. Therefore, some of these paintings will be sold in the end… I intend to donate the proceeds to poor mountainous areas.”

“Sounds like a good idea.”

After Dou Zerui switched on the simulator, he walked towards them.

The entire art gallery was instantly filled with blue skies and white clouds. Coupled with the landscape paintings hanging on the wall, it appeared extremely artistic.

“Such scenes seem to bring me back to the locations where I painted these pieces.” Dou Xiangling smiled and looked at Zi Yi as she complimented her. “Yiyi, you are amazing.”

On the other hand, Zi Yi was not completely satisfied. “This scenery is too monotonous and it cannot change according to each individual’s perception.”

The Dou siblings looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.

They did not expect their cousin to be so skilled with computers!

“Yiyi.”

Dou Xiangling clearly had something to say but found it difficult to bring it up.

Dou Zerui also looked as if he did not know what to say.

Looking at their awkward expression, she asked, “What’s wrong?”

Dou Xiangling held her hand apologetically. “Well… there’s something I did not inform you of in advance. Please don’t be angry when I tell you about it.”

Zi Yi agreed as she looked at Dou Xiangling’s worried expression.

“For my exhibition today, Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle, and my mother, along with a few aunts, will be coming over.”

Zi Yi: “…”
