Chapter 181: Opening an art gallery is Yu Han's ultimate goal; everything else is just a prelud
But these two, Su Ran and Lin Sheng, seemed to have X-ray vision. They understood the personalities of Yang Yuhan's two mothers, and then each of them started to curry favor with the two old women. They thought that as long as they could win over the two old women, they could win over such a capable mistress.
With two young men who are successful in business, owning houses, cars, and careers, they are sure they can get any girl they want.
But the harder a woman is to obtain, the more precious she is!
The two began to treat their two elderly mothers fairly, but Yang Yuhan was completely unaware of this and continued to be busy with her own affairs every day.
Su Ran was good at sweet talk and spent all day around Yang Yuhan's birth mother, calling her "Auntie" affectionately and giving her exquisite little gifts from time to time.
Lin Sheng took a pragmatic approach, accompanying his adoptive mother to handle various daily chores and running errands for her.
The two elderly women initially enjoyed the attentiveness, but as time went on, they sensed something was amiss. After discussing it privately, they understood the young men's intentions. They then decided to have a serious talk with Yang Yuhan.
When Yang Yuhan learned of this, she was both amused and exasperated. She told the two mothers that she had no special feelings for them, and they were just ordinary friends.
Subsequently, Yang Yuhan approached Su Ran and Lin Sheng, clearly stating her hope that they would stop pursuing her in this manner and that if they truly cherished their friendship, they should return to a normal way of getting along.
Upon hearing this, Su Ran and Lin Sheng blushed deeply and could only awkwardly agree.
Then, half a month later, the two men got into a fight, simply because they were still pursuing Yang Yuhan relentlessly after their separation. People around them rushed to break up the fight, but the two were fighting so fiercely that it was difficult to separate them for a while.
Yang Yuhan rushed over when she heard the commotion and was both angry and anxious to see the two fighting.
"What are you two doing? Didn't you agree to go back to normal?" Yang Yuhan scolded coldly.
Su Ran, panting, said, "I can't control my heart, I truly like you." Lin Sheng retorted, "Me too, I won't give up easily."
Yang Yuhan sighed helplessly: "You're only making me more disgusted. If you keep bothering me like this, we won't even be able to be friends anymore."
Upon hearing this, the two gradually stopped moving. They realized that their behavior was indeed inappropriate, not only damaging their friendship but also causing trouble for Yang Yuhan.
Afterwards, Su Ran and Lin Sheng seriously reflected on their behavior. They decided to respect Yang Yuhan's wishes and truly treat her as a friend.
Yang Yuhan breathed a sigh of relief and continued to focus on her life and work, and the relationship between the three of them finally returned to normal.
Yang Yuhan started painting, and every painting she painted would quickly sell out.
Suddenly, one quiet evening, she sat in the director's studio of the main gallery and painted a landscape. In the painting was a green mountain, at the foot of which was a grove of green pine trees, and in front of the grove was the Yangtze River. On both banks of the Yangtze River were green meadows.
After she finished drawing, she thought it looked perfect. Then, she drew a small wooden boat on the riverbank, with the boat moored on one side of the river.
Then she stood up, flicked her paintbrush, and drew three southeast winds on the side of the painting. In a moment, the water in the river began to make a "whooshing" sound.
The branches began to sway instantly, and Yang Yuhan was startled by the sight before her, almost dropping her paintbrush.
Just then, the scene in the painting suddenly stopped changing. But Yang Yuhan noticed that a blurry figure had appeared in the painting, standing on the wooden boat.
The next day, Yang Yuhan took the strange painting to a senior painter for advice.
The senior artist examined the painting carefully for a long time, and then told her with a solemn expression that the painting might contain a mysterious power, perhaps related to the emotions she put into it when she painted it.
Yang Yuhan's doubts deepened.
That evening, when she gazed at the painting again, the figure in it became clearer; it turned out to be a man resembling an ancient scholar.
The man smiled slightly at Yang Yuhan, his lips moving as if he were saying something. Yang Yuhan was astonished and unconsciously reached out to touch the screen.
In an instant, a soft light flashed, and Yang Yuhan felt herself being sucked into the painting.
In the painting, she is situated amidst the mountains and rivers, unsure of what to do in front of the scholar-man.
The man bowed and said that he had been trapped in the painting for many years, and that he was only able to free himself from some of the constraints thanks to Yang Yuhan's wonderful brush.
Yang Yuhan gradually calmed down, curious about what would happen next.
In an instant, the man's expression was just like that of Yu Shuai, his junior high school classmate from his past life, and his captivating eyes lingered on Yang Yuhan's face!
Yang Yuhan subconsciously took a step back and stammered, "Who...who are you? Why do you look like my classmate Yu Shuai?"
The scholar gently shook his head and said, "I am the spirit within the painting. Although I do not know the person you speak of, perhaps it is fate. Since you have saved me here, I will certainly repay you."
Yang Yuhan still had doubts in her heart, but then she saw the surrounding scenery changing, as if she had arrived at an ancient market.
The scholar took her hand and said softly, "This is the magnificent scene of yesteryear. I brought you here today to see it for yourself."
Yang Yuhan looked around curiously, overwhelmed by the antique buildings and bustling crowds.
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves approached, and a group of soldiers came in a menacing manner, causing the people to flee in all directions.
The scholar hurriedly pulled Yang Yuhan into a small alley. Once the danger had passed, Yang Yuhan realized she had been standing very close to the scholar, and a blush rose to her face.
Suddenly, the sky darkened, a crack appeared in the air, and a powerful suction force emanated from it.
The scholar hugged Yang Yuhan tightly and shouted, "Something must have changed outside. Don't be afraid, young lady. I will protect you."
As the suction grew stronger, the two flew toward the crack. Yang Yuhan closed her eyes tightly, gripping the scholar's clothes, awaiting what the unknown would bring.
Suddenly, the scholar's face truly transformed into Yu Shuai's face from his previous life, and then the two of them sat in Tuandingshan Township, Yu Shuai's hometown from his previous life.
Then, the scholar smiled suspiciously, "Yu Han, you were right before, I am indeed Commander Yu. My ex-wife Xu Yanyan and I had long been divorced because our marriage was in name only. Then, after several reincarnations, I found you again, and you ignored me many times. Now that I have found you again, you can't refuse me again."
The scholar added, "I know, it was because in my past life I was blind and looked down on you because of your low level of education, and instead chose your ex-wife Xu Yanli. Later I discovered that she had too many flaws, and that her self-funded university education was only possible because she had good parents..."
"Alright, shut up. What's the point of telling me all this now? What kind of sorcery did you use to trap me here? Release me now."
"Ha, ha! Now that you're in my hands, you're not going anywhere. I've been thinking about you for a long time."
