Chapter 38.2
Qing Ye Li completely ignored the man’s aggrieved eyes and opened his mouth to say to him: "I want you to help me look into someone."
The man then looked at Qing Ye Li in surprise. "Look into someone? Who could have stepped on your tail? Are you here to seek vengeance? ?"
Qing Ye Li did not respond but just stretched his hand out, a rather unique looking portrait scroll suddenly appearing in his palm, which Qing Ye Li then handed to the man. "Help me look for the person in the painting."
Hearing that, the man took the painting and then slowly unfurled the scroll, his charming and alluring eyes widening. "A woman? !"
With that loud cry, it immediately drew the eyes of Yue Xin Yan and Ah Jin to turn over towards him.
They saw that the woman in the portrait was dressed in white formidable looking attire, wrapped around a curvy slender waist, her long hair bound up high at the top of her head with a hair ribbon, with several strands hanging down over the side at the temples, her arms crossed as she leaned against a tree, her stance languidly indolent.
Her facial features were delicately exquisite, exceptional and outstanding looking. The one thing that was most attractive was that pair of long upslanted eyes that looked highly intelligent and crafty as a fox, the lifted ends of the eyes exceptionally alluring. The edges of her faintly pink lips were slightly curled up, tinged with a faint playful smile.
She seemed to be looking at something focusedly, but was completely unaware that someone else was staring at her so intensively.
The portrait depicted everything to the finest detail, especially that woman, where even her demeanor was so well captured and lifelike. It was clear to see that the artist’s skills was exceedingly superb.
Having served Qing Ye Li for such a long time, Ah Jin had naturally known that Qing Ye Li knew how to paint.
However, what he was not aware of was when Qing Ye Li had drawn such a beautiful portrait.
Hence, at this moment, he was greatly surprised.
What shocked Yue Xin Yan why, Big Brother Ye Li whom she knew was a man who always kept his distance away from all beings of the female species, would paint a portrait of a woman?
And one she could tell with just one glance, that a lot of effort had been put into it.
The fact that she was able to speak to Big Brother Ye Li, and come to become close to him, was only because she had always stuck herself to him since she was very young. Additionally, it was also because of his friendship with her royal brother, that she could come to be so close to him at all.
So, at that moment, she could not help but become very curious. [Who is that person in the painting!] Yue Xin Yan was never a person who could keep her thoughts to herself. As that thought came into her mind, she then asked it out aloud: "Big Brother Ye Li, who is she?"
That was similarly the question Ah Jin and the white robed man had in mind.
Qing Ye Li looked at the person in the painting and his gaze softened quite a bit. "She is someone very important."
Once those words came out, several people were taken aback with shock.
Qing Ye Li turned his eyes away and looked at the white robed man. "She could possibly have altered her looks, but that pair of eyes she has isn’t what normal people can possess. Look out for people with such eyes, and she also possesses a unique air about her. If you’ve seen her once, you will never forget it."
"That magical?" The white robed man pursed up his lips thoughtfully. "I’ve never seen you like this when you speak. Could she possibly be the lady in your heart? And she’s really beautiful looking. Her eyes are even more alluring than mine....."
"Fine. I won’t say anything more. How petty. I was only taking a closer look." The white robed man saw Qing Ye Li keeping the portrait, and he could not help but complain.
"I’ll leave it to you." Qing Ye Li’s voice was low and a little hoa.r.s.e, his dark green eyes serious, and seemingly tinged with a hint of plea.
The white robed man was startled. It seemed to be the first time he was seeing this man show such a demeanor, that was like a certain kind of emotion called vulnerability, and the white robed man’s thin lips curled up slightly. "Alright, I did not say I wouldn’t help you. We’ve been friends for so many years, and it’s just to locate a person."
"Thanks." Qing Ye Li nodded.
