“Well, it’s getting late, you’d better hurry up and finish carving the rest of the orchids, so we can eat afterwards, otherwise the food will get cold later.” Rongshu said as she tidied up her hair that had been rubbed by the man.
The man was relieved.
So it was because of this that she had gotten out of his arms.
He had thought that she had resented his embrace.
“Okay, I’ll slow down a bit.” Fu Jingting nodded slightly and turned back around, picking up the pumpkin and carving knife he had just put down and continuing to carve.
Rongshu also stood back beside him and watched him carve, “I really didn’t expect that after learning how to carve a jade statue of the Goddess of Mercy, you would actually be able to carve orchids.”
Fu Jingting raised his lips at his words, “The statue of the Goddess of Mercy is a big object, how can you start carving it straight away? Although I have money and don’t care how much jade I waste, the master I worshiped cares and feels sorry for those jade blanks, so he let me use the corners of jade and start carving from some simple small objects first, the orchid is one of them, after I learn some carving techniques from carving small objects and am almost proficient, then he will teach me to carve big objects.”
“So that’s how it is.” Rong Shu nodded in a daze, “But this was so long ago, I didn’t expect you to still remember and be so skilled, if it were me, I would have turned back into a novice long ago.”
Fu Jingting’s eyes flashed sharply, not just intentionally or unintentionally, he didn’t pick up on this comment.
Rongshu didn’t feel anything wrong either, her eyes glowing as she looked at the pumpkin in Fu Jingting’s hand.
At first, she had carved the pumpkin in a messy manner, saying that she was carving an orchid, but in the end, the carving did not even look like an orchid, nor did it look like anything else, it was too ugly to look at.
But now, after Fu Jingting’s transformation, it had taken on the appearance of an orchid, and one could tell at a glance that it was indeed an orchid.
Rongshu marvelled, “Amazing, so it’s really saved, you’re so good Fu Jingting!”
The woman’s compliment made Fu Jingting happy, and the curvature of his thin lips grew thicker and thicker, even his chin was lifted a little higher than it was a moment ago.
Obviously, the woman’s compliment made him very flattered, and he was even vaguely a little smug.
But on his lips, he was unconcerned and returned two words indifferently, “It’s alright.”
Rongshu did not know that he was pretending to be modest, and when she heard his bland reply, she was a little displeased, pouting and saying, “This is what you call okay? This is called very good, I can’t believe that you still have this ability, I’ve never heard you say that before.”
She looked at the man with starry eyes.
The man was a little embarra*sed by the look in her eyes, pursed his lips and coughed lightly, pretending to be calm as he returned, “It’s not like it’s anything important, so I never told you about it in the past, as for now, I forgot about it myself, if you hadn’t carved this tonight, I wouldn’t have remembered.”
With that, he lowered his eyelids, hiding a certain look that flashed in his eyes.
Not seeing it, Rongshu said with a complacent expression, “So, it’s me who’s tapped some sort of skill out of you again?”
Looking at the woman’s proud look, Fu Jingting freed his hand to scrape the bridge of her nose, “That’s right.”
Rongshu smiled even wider, “Looks like in the future, I’ll have to find some new stuff, so that maybe you’ll have other skills that I’ll tap into as well.”
Fu Jingting raised his eyebrows, how could he have thought that her brain was actually so big.
But there was one thing she was right about, and that was that he did have some skills that he hadn’t told her about, nor had he shown them.
After all, as a member of Fu’s family, he who had been the heir apparent from the moment he was born, had a great deal to learn, naturally.
It can be said that all kinds of skills, although he is not proficient, but he knows a little bit, will know a little bit. www.ySHuGe.ORg
All in all, so far, he didn’t know exactly which ones he knew.
“Good, then I expect you to dig out all the skills I know.” Fu Jingting said dotingly.
Rongshu nodded heavily, “Okay, then you wait, I’m sure I will.”
“Mm, I trust you.” Fu Jingting nodded his head.
After that, Rong Shu stopped bothering him and quieted down.
After carving for a while, Fu Jingting watched her watching her carving so intently, thought for a moment, stopped his hand and asked, “Do you want to try?”
Rongshu stood up straight in dismay, “Me? Try it?”
She pointed to her nose.
Fu Jingting nodded, “Yes.”
“No, I can’t.” Rongshu shook her head and waved her hand repeatedly, indicating that she couldn’t do it.
Fu Jingting looked at her, “Why can’t you?”
“You just saw me carving into that ghostly look, and I’m not like you, I’m a novice trying for the first time today, you would have been able to do it a long time ago, you even corrected the ghostly look of my carving back, if I were to try and ruin the orchid that you managed to correct again, what a pity that would be.” Rongshu said with a show of hands.
Fu Jingting looked at her, and then at the orchid in his hand, and finally gave a light laugh, “It’s okay, if it’s ruined, it’s just the two of us anyway, and we’re not afraid of others laughing, in saying that, with me, I don’t think it’s necessarily ruined, come here, I’ll teach you.”
He beckoned towards the woman.
Rongshu looked at the orchid in his hand, her heart still very much intent on it.
In fact, it wasn’t that she wasn’t curious in her heart after seeing how easily the man had broken back her sh*tty work, not that she didn’t want to give it a try.
But she knew her own standards and had held back so as not to make a joke.
But now that the man had taken the initiative to bring it up, it had rekindled that little urge in her.
Looking at the woman’s stupid and somewhat hesitant appearance, Fu Jingting directly reached out, took the woman’s wrist, and pulled her over.
The woman was still torn between the public and the man who pulled her to him, and she was shocked and let out a cry.
Fu Jingting’s index finger rested against her lips, “Don’t be afraid, it’s me.”
Rongshu blinked, then took his hand away from her lips and said in an unpleasant voice, “I know it’s you, I was just startled by you suddenly pulling me over.”
Fu Jingting’s thin lips tugged, “Sorry, I just saw that you wanted to try but didn’t dare to, so I just helped you make a decision, well, come on and try, don’t worry, I’m here, I’ll teach you, I won’t let you break it.”
As he spoke, he pulled her to himself, standing behind her, and then slipped the pumpkin and the carving knife into her hands, while he himself held both her hands from the side and showed her the steps behind the carving.
Not to mention, with Fu Jingting’s hands on her, Rongshu started out cautiously and became more and more fluent, and her whole body smiled happily, “Did you see that, Fu Jingting? I actually know how to do it, although I only know the simplest carving method you taught me, but I really learned it.”
She turned her head to look at the man behind her, her little face flushed with excitement.
Seeing her so happy, Fu Jingting also smiled, “Not bad, very clever.”
“That’s.” Rongshu raised her chin in triumph, then poked the man behind her with her elbow, “You let go of me first.”
“What’s wrong?” Fu Jingting asked, looking at her in confusion.
Rongshu grunted, “Of course it’s because I already know how to do it, next, I’m going to finish it on my own, so I don’t need you anymore, you can let go of me.”
“……” Fu Jingting’s thin lips twitched, then confirmed, “Are you sure you don’t need me to teach you later?”
