I was dedicated by the female lead to the male lead

Ningning's apartment is very close to the school, and it's only two stops by public car.When I arrived at school, I ran into my roommate Zhang Wei. He shouted in surprise, "Xia, Xia Xiaomu?"

Zhang Wei looked him up and down: "Is it you? Xia Xiaomu."

Xia Xiaomu nodded politely.

"Have you had your hair cut? Damn, you're still dressed so trendy! I almost didn't recognize you!"

In the morning, Xu Ningning said to him: You are so good-looking, but you haven't picked yourself up properly, it's a waste of your beauty.Then he threw away his worn-out clothes and gave him a set of casual tight-fitting suits.

He smiled helplessly: "No, this is a dress from a friend."

There was doubt in Zhang Wei's eyes, and he showed a smile of unknown meaning: "What kind of friend, you still send clothes?"

They are all freshmen, and they are in the same department, and the roommates take similar courses as him.

After Xia Xiaomu took her seat, she always felt that someone was watching her.He followed his gaze and saw his roommates Xu Zhe, Zhang Wei, and Zhao Teng, who were whispering, as if talking about himself.

Xia Xiaomu was speechless, and tried her best not to care about them and concentrate on listening to the class.

After class, he received a call from one of the few numbers left in his cell phone: the instructor—Teacher Liu.

Teacher Liu seemed very anxious: "Xia Xiaomu, come to my office, someone is looking for you."

Xia Xiaomu was surprised: "Who is it?"

Teacher Liu: "You will know when you come here."

Because of the poverty of the original owner’s family, Mr. Liu once helped him apply for a student loan, and even acted as a joint guarantor for the loan when the original owner’s father could not be contacted. He was very considerate of the original owner.

When he arrived at the office, he saw the instructor, Teacher Liu, talking politely with two men.

Of those two people, one was sitting on the sofa, wearing a suit and leather shoes, with an extraordinary appearance and an arrogant expression, and one could tell from a glance that they were not young. The other was standing behind him, also wearing a suit and tie, probably an assistant or something.

Xia Xiaomu nodded politely and said hello: "Mr. Liu, you call me."

When Mr. Liu saw him, he was stunned for a long time before speaking: "Xia? Xia Xiaomu. This is Lu Jingcheng, the manager of Century Commercial Building. I came here specially to see you today, come and say hello."

Lu Jingcheng?

Xia Xiaomu knew this name, Lu Jinghan's cousin, and also the Lu family who had the most fierce battle with Lu Jinghan in the early stage of the novel.

It's just that after Lu Jinghan got Lu's name, the name Lu Jingcheng never came out again.

Xia Xiaomu walked past you suspiciously: "Hi, Mr. Lu, what can I do for you?"

Lu Jingcheng looked him up and down: "Are you Xia Xiaomu? Why don't you look like one? Hey, forget it, did you draw this?"

He took out his mobile phone and showed Xia Xiaomu a picture. On the picture was the life he had drawn casually in the mall that day.It's just that they were scattered on the ground when they were chased later. How could they be held by him?

Seeing him nodding, Lu Jingcheng smiled and said: "You are lucky, my grandfather has taken a fancy to this painting. I want to see you by name, so come with me."

Lu Jingcheng's grandfather, is that also Lu Jinghan's grandfather Lu Changhe? !

The current person in power of the Lu family - Mrs. Lu.

Xia Xiaomu took a deep breath: Lu Jinghan's grandfather actually took a fancy to his casual painting.

He hesitated and said: "This, this is not very good. Although I don't know how it got into your grandpa's eyes, but my painting is not good."

Lu Jingcheng raised his eyebrows: "How much face do you have, kid, you can let me, Lu Jingcheng, come to you in person. How dare you not agree to put on airs, besides, it doesn't matter if you don't draw well, as long as our Lu family will support you, There is no one who is not famous."

Xia Xiaomu frowned. Although this sounded uncomfortable, it was true.Just like the entertainment circle, if the painter circle wants to be famous, it needs resources, connections and money.

The poor are geniuses, and those who become famous after death are very few.

Most of them are buried in the market and spend their lives in poverty.

In the book, the old man Lu is obsessed with painting all his life, and he will spare no expense to praise the painter he likes.

Teacher Liu hurriedly said, "Hey, Mr. Lu, don't be angry. The kid has never seen a big scene, so he's scared."

He also seriously reminded Xia Xiaomu: "Xia Xiaomu, this is a very good opportunity for you. Listen to Mr. Lu carefully and go meet Mr. Lu. If Mr. Lu wants something to paint, you can draw it properly."

Xia Xiaomu didn't like his attitude, but it seemed that she couldn't escape, so she could only go with him to see Mrs. Lu.I had no choice but to nod in agreement.

After taking people into the car, Lu Jinghan looked at Xia Xiaomu and his expression changed. He said meaningfully: "You are quite likable, are you short of money?"

Xia Xiaomu smiled perfunctorily.

"Then be brave. If you follow me in the future, not only will you not cut off your money, but it will also allow you to see what the upper class is like."

Xia Xiaomu heard that there was something in the words, and asked back: "Didn't I just see the old man?"

Lu Jingcheng sneered: "Children are difficult to deal with and don't know the rules. Since you are the old man I took you to see, you have to be mine from now on, don't you understand?"

The assistant driving the car also enlightened him: "Boy, as long as you listen to Lu Shao, you don't have to work hard in this life, just wait and enjoy the blessings. It's a good thing for the pie to fall from the sky, but you're throwing gold on the head." gone."

Then you have to be smashed to death!

Xia Xiaomu probably guessed Lu Jingcheng's intention, he asked knowingly, "But what can I do for you?"

Lu Jingcheng sneered: "It's good to understand, and you don't need to do anything. You usually please the old man, say something nice in front of him, and let the old man know that I, Lu Jingcheng, are the most capable junior of the Lu family."

"Of course I have benefited, and of course you are indispensable. How much you can get from me depends on how much you can bring me, understand?"

When Lu Jingcheng said something, he still held Xia Xiaomu's personal information and deliberately waved it in front of him.

He continued: "You don't have to worry about anything, I will give you an assistant, he will teach you what to say in front of the old man. If the old man wants to find you, he will contact your assistant first. You only need to draw a good picture and give it to me. I'll just please the old man."

It was very warm in the car, but at this moment, Xia Xiaomu suddenly felt cold all over.

It wasn't because Lu Jingcheng held his profile, and there was a hint of threat in his words.

But in the original world, someone said the same thing to him: "I will take care of all the contacts in the outside world for you, and I will also send people to do all the things around you. You only need to draw a good picture. up"

That person is his teacher.He never knew that the teacher he respected manipulated him like a marionette.And in those years when I was ignorant and ignorant, I achieved the teacher's resounding reputation.

Until he sees through everything and wants to resist, there is no one around him to help him save him.

So, what is the difference from life in the original world!

He has had enough of being controlled, and he never wants to be used by Lu Jingcheng.But now even the university advisors are pushing him to this side, who can save him from the wealthy son Lu Jingcheng.

After finally gaining life again, how could it be possible to repeat the same mistakes again.

Xia Xiaomu's palms were covered with cold sweat. He tried his best to keep calm, thinking about how to get rid of Lu Jingcheng's control.

----------

The Lu family's old house was built on the outskirts of city S, surrounded by lakes and hills, the scenery is quiet and pleasant.Everywhere in the house has an antique atmosphere, but it is full of low-key luxury.

Mrs. Lu was already sitting in the tea room waiting for him, next to him was a rough life drawn in colored pencils.

Xia Xiaomu walked over calmly, bowed politely and said hello: "Hi, Grandpa Lu, I'm Xia Xiaomu."

Old Master Lu had a loving face and asked him to sit down: "Oh, I finally saw you, come and sit down, Xiao Mu looks young, how old is she?"

Xia Xiaomu answered him in a correct manner: "Grandpa Lu, I am 19 years old this year."

"Not bad, it's really talented to be able to draw such soulful paintings at such a young age. It's a young genius."

Xia Xiaomu said modestly: "This painting is not good, it really makes you laugh, Grandpa."

The old man asked someone to bring over a delicate picture frame, which contained "life".

The intertwined curves of various colors and the chaotic painting make the whole painting look unsightly and even a little distorted.There is only a hint of light green in the middle, but it is very abrupt.

The old man pointed to the light green: "Even though life is like this, even if it is secular obstacles, there are many difficulties, but as long as you have a breath, you can break through the obstacles, grow hard, and move forward bravely."

Xia Xiaomu was shocked and moved: "Grandpa Lu, you can actually see it."

This is the meaning of his paintings, every color and shape formed by a line has its meaning.

The old man smiled kindly: "After all, I painted abstract paintings for a few years when I was young, and although I gave up later, I have never stopped admiring other people's paintings for so many years.

It can be seen that you are still a little hesitant in writing, and your technique is not mature, but your paintings are very spiritual, and you are a rare talent. "

Xia Xiaomu nodded heavily, expressing that he is very teachable: "Thank you for your advice, I will try my best to draw better in the future."

The old man looked at him in relief, poured a cup of tea with his own hands and handed it over, and said slowly: "That day, this painting seemed to have eyes, and it just flew in front of me. I think this is fate, God destined you and me See you, if Xiao Mu doesn't think I'm old, how about being a painting friend with me?"

In the book, the Lu family has been famous for a hundred years, but the business started from the generation of Lu Changhe.He has a broad vision and is resolute.Taking advantage of Lu's reputation and connections, he made drastic investments in various industries, and after decades of management, the top giants like Lu's are now.

Xia Xiaomu was flattered that such a person wanted to be his friend: "Grandpa Lu, I, He Dehe, can be your friend. As long as you need it, just ask me to come over at any time."

Lu Jingcheng was very satisfied with Xia Xiaomu's performance, and of course he did not forget to ask for credit. He changed his usual arrogant look and laughed:

"Grandpa, you don't know. It took me a lot of energy to find someone for you. I have been squatting on the campus of S University all day since yesterday, and I didn't even bother to eat. Finally, I found someone who is destined for you."

The old man didn't appreciate it at all, and turned his head to reprimand him: "How dare you say that if you hadn't driven people out of the shopping mall that day, you would have made such a big detour to find Xiao Mu!"

In a word, Xia Xiaomu's hand holding the teacup trembled, and it was as if a thunder had exploded in his mind. The bang made his ears buzz.

The person who drove him out of the shopping mall that day was Lu Jingcheng, not Lu Jinghan! !
