Chapter 159: Older Cousin Dou Zerui
“Brother, why are you here?”
Dou Xiangling was surprised at the man who walked in.
Dou Zerui smiled and said, “My younger sister is opening an exhibition in the capital for the first time and as a brother, I ought to come and help.”
He walked over to her and asked, “Is there anything you need my help with?”
“Not for the time being.” Dou Xiangling lightly chuckled, before she pointed inside the exhibition gallery and said in all seriousness, “I’ve called cousin Zi Yi over. You’re not to show her an att.i.tude later.”
Dou Zerui wanted to pull a long face.
“Brother, I was the one who called her over and if she gets mad and leaves, I’m going to ignore you.”
Dou Zerui looked at Dou Xiangling with slight irritation on his face. “Why do you insist on being in touch with her? What if she still…”
Dou Xiangling hastily interrupted. “Brother, I think you’re still unaware of it, but Yiyi has already cut off all connections with Uncle. She’s now all alone in the capital and as her only relatives, if even we ourselves ignore her, do you want her to get bullied?”
Dou Xiangling had heard plenty of bad rumors about Zi Yi during this period of time. If she had not personally been in contact with her, she might have truly believed in them. However, she could sense that their cousin was not someone like that.
Dou Zerui became taciturn from Dou Xiangling’s words.
Dou Xiangling added, “Brother, I can sense that Yiyi is not like how she was in the past. She’s changed inside, you can go and observe her if you like.”
Dou Zerui thought for a moment, nodded his head, and walked inside the gallery.
Zi Yi had finished checking out the entire art gallery. The area of the gallery should be around 1012 square meters.
For a personal gallery, such an area was considered very large.
She recalled Dou Xiangling’s earlier request to the gallery owner and took out her mobile phone as she quickly made some edits. Very soon, a scene simulator was created.
Just then, footsteps came from behind her.
Zi Yi glanced over and discovered the older male cousin that disliked her. She directly looked away and continued looking at her phone.
Dou Zerui never expected such an att.i.tude from Zi Yi. He suppressed his prejudice against her and casually asked in an awkward manner, “What are you doing?”
Zi Yi replied with an indifferent tone, “Simulating a scene.”
Dou Zerui: “…”
Why was he unable to understand her?
He then subconsciously asked, “What scene are you simulating?”
“Cousin mentioned wanting to decorate this gallery into a natural environment on the day of the exhibition to match the theme of her paintings.
“You…” know how to do it?
Words of doubt lingered in Dou Zerui’s mouth but in the end he did not finish his sentence. He looked at Zi Yi with a complicated gaze.
Even though he disliked this cousin of his, he could feel that she had somewhat differed from the previous impression he had of her.
Their cousin was a selfish person and would never have thought of others in the past.
Not to mention, just because of a single sentence of Dou Xiangling, she had sincerely thought of helping her.
Even though he felt that she could not help much at all.
Zi Yi paid no attention to Dou Zerui’s reaction. After she completed the simulation of the scene, she headed inside.
Just then, Dou Xiangling was still in a discussion with the gallery owner about the decorations.
Zi Yi called out to her. “Cousin.”
Dou Xiangling and the gallery owner looked over at the same time.
“If you trust me, hand me the layout of the scene you want.”
Dou Zerui who had also followed over wanted to stop Dou Xiangling. However, Dou Xiangling looked at Zi Yi’s confident gaze and pondered for two seconds before she nodded. “Okay.”
“Xiangling, are you crazy? This is your first exhibition in the capital and if you screw it up, have you thought about the possible consequences?”
