Chapter 2393: 2207: Sleeping Beauty

Ye Qiu is really going back? Could it be that I’m no match for Miss Zhou in any way?

"Ye Qiu, do I look unattractive according to your Huaxia beauty standards?" Liliya asked as she looked at Ye Qiu.

"Not at all. Why else would I stay here so late?"

"I’m scared."

Liliya said.

As she finished speaking, she already went over to hug Ye Qiu’s waist.

This little enchantress really has her ways.

...

The next morning, when Ye Qiu woke up, Liliya was sleeping beside him, just like a sleeping beauty, indeed very beautiful.

At that moment, inspiration struck Ye Qiu.

When he got up, he found oil paints and a canvas in Liliya’s room, and Ye Qiu painted a painting right there.

When Liliya woke up, Ye Qiu’s figure was already gone.

However, on the table was an oil painting.

Liliya quickly got up, dressed, and took a look.

She saw the words: Sleeping Beauty!

The inscription was in Russian.

But the painting wasn’t of anyone else; it was of Liliya herself, as she slept this morning with the winter sunlight shining through the window, looking truly beautiful.

Did Ye Qiu really paint this for her?

Where did Ye Qiu go?

Liliya dressed, put on a coat, and upon going outside, a maid said: "Miss, Dr. Ye has already left."

He must have gone back to the Huaxia gathering area.

Now as Liliya looked at the oil painting, she suddenly understood why Ye Qiu had said her painting wasn’t good.

Ye Qiu knew he had called Zhou Wenting last night to say he wouldn’t return, and Zhou Wenting was quite unhappy about it.

Now at dawn, she got a bodyguard to drive Liliya back.

Returning to the Huaxia gathering area.

Ye Qiu went to the place where he and Zhou Wenting lived.

When he reached the door of the room and knocked.

After a moment, Zhou Wenting opened the door and asked: "Why did you come back?"

"Afraid you’d be unhappy."

"What about that Russian beauty of yours?"

Zhou Wenting gave him a look and asked.

"Jealous?"

Zhou Wenting seemed reluctant to say more.

Once Ye Qiu closed the door, Zhou Wenting didn’t need to think much to guess what kind of relationship Ye Qiu had with Liliya.

However, Ye Qiu in France with that Louise seemed to be the same, and she didn’t think much more about it.

Ye Qiu hadn’t washed or brushed since coming back.

Now he took off his army coat and carried Zhou Wenting to the room to continue sleeping.

Until it was past 11 in the morning, he woke up and prepared to treat those patients.

Fifteen patients.

It took Ye Qiu an hour and a half to see all those patients.

Without breakfast, Ye Qiu was already hungry.

And went directly with Zhou Wenting to a hotpot restaurant for lunch.

"I’ll compensate you."

Compensate?

What kind of compensation?

Zhou Wenting didn’t want any compensation.

"I don’t want it."

"Then don’t regret it later."

Zhou Wenting fell silent.

After finishing hotpot, Ye Qiu drove with Zhou Wenting to a place more than ten kilometers away and stopped.

When they got out of the car, Ye Qiu pulled Zhou Wenting to walk on the ice.

Zhou Wenting was puzzled, why would Ye Qiu bring her here in the freezing winter to face the Northwest wind?

"It’s too cold, let’s go back."

"We might go back to Huaxia in a couple of days, I’ve arranged it with Liliya."

Returning to the home country?

Zhou Wenting hadn’t expected Ye Qiu to return so soon; she seemed to be accustomed to spending so much time here with Ye Qiu.

If they return to Jinling, she wouldn’t know when she’d see Ye Qiu again.

"You don’t want to go back?"

"Not exactly, I miss my mom a bit too."

"Then it’s fine."

Back in the car, Ye Qiu drove back to the Huaxia gathering area.

Then went to a store to buy canvas and paper along with oil paints.

"Are you going to paint?"

"What do you think?"

Back in the room.

When the temperature in the room was suitable and wouldn’t affect the paint, Ye Qiu began painting.

Zhou Wenting watched him intently.

Ye Qiu spent almost an hour and a half before finally putting down his brush.

Upon first glance, it was an oil painting of the Siberian winter snow scene, indeed very beautiful and full of artistic conception.

One was on canvas, another on paper.

Same size, different materials.

Once framed, these two paintings would look very impressive.

Zhou Wenting knew Ye Qiu’s oil paintings were worth a lot; now seeing these, she was naturally very surprised, and she really liked them, immediately hugging Ye Qiu, saying: "You said you’d give them to me?"

"Do you want both?"

"Isn’t that right?"

"I’ll give one to Liliya as a gift."

Zhou Wenting could only pout, choosing the painting done on canvas.

Ye Qiu knew that the "Sleeping Beauty" painting was also nice, but it was meant for Liliya’s own appreciation, while this one could be appreciated by the public.

He intended to give it to Liliya as a farewell gift upon leaving Siberia.

In the evening, Liliya indeed arrived.

Seeing Ye Qiu, Liliya seemed more tender than water, and it was obvious to everyone the relationship she had with Ye Qiu.

Liliya hadn’t had dinner, so when Ye Qiu took her and Zhou Wenting to a restaurant for dinner, he said: "Liliya, I’m going back tomorrow."

"Then, what about me?"

"You should stay here for now."

Liliya wanted to follow Ye Qiu to Jinling.

But Ye Qiu knew it wasn’t suitable yet; they had to wait for Huaxia investment here to develop before having Liliya go to Jinling.

She might still be needed here to help Boss Zhong solve some troubles.

After dinner.

Liliya didn’t want to go back, so when Ye Qiu suggested she stay, Zhou Wenting didn’t say anything.

Back at the place he and Zhou Wenting stayed, Ye Qiu took out the oil painting meant for Liliya.

On it was written: Siberian Winter!

Liliya loved this painting at first glance; it was indeed beautiful and surely valuable.

"Qiu, I love this painting so much."

"What about the other one?"

"I like it too."

"You can keep it secretly for yourself, but this one can be gifted to your father."

Liliya didn’t leave that night but stayed there.

When Ye Qiu got up the next day and freshened up, he went to see the remaining patients and prepared to tell Boss Zhong and have his people drive them to Mohe in Northeast, and then with Zhou Wenting, fly back to Ice City, and finally to Jinling.

Liliya stayed there throughout and after having lunch, saw Boss Zhong’s people drive them away, then took the painting and left by car.
