As expected Lu Qiang was looking like the most handsome person in the world and the one who is full of love and care for others.
“You are able to draw my grandson the way he actually is and others fail to see it in him that how loving and caring he is. I am so happy that you drew him and it touched my heart.” Elder Lu was happy.
“Thank you, grandpa,” Jiang Yuyan replied. As grandpa said, one draw what is in their mind and heart and Lu Qiang was the only one she always thought about. Even if she would have drawn hundreds of times later, it would be only Lu Qiang on that blank white paper.
Patting her head, elder Lu Moved towards Lu Lijun and said, “Let me see what this little Lu did.”
Lu Lijun stepped back and made a space for elder Lu. the moment elder Lu saw it, he couldn’t say a single word and continued staring at it.
“How is it, grandpa?” Lu Lijun asked.
Stil elder Lu was staring at it so Jiang Yuyan was curious to see what exactly Lu Lijun drew to make elder Lu speechless and stunned. She couldn’t hold back and stepped towards both of them. The moment Jiang Yuyan saw it, she didn’t know how to react. She never ever expected him to draw it.
“Really pretty,” Elder Lu exclaimed.
“I tried to do what you said, grandpa. Something that is really pretty and you should not be able to take your sight away from it.” Lu Lijun said being confident about he was successful in doing what his grandpa asked for.
“Indeed!” Grandpa said while still staring at the drawing.
Jiang Yuyan was stunned to see it and couldn’t help but stare at him with surprised expressions on her face.
Sensing her gaze on him, Lu Lijun looked at her and asked, “Did you like it Yuyan?”
She couldn’t say a word as to how she can praise a drawing that’s actually her. Praising the drawing was like praising her own beauty but she couldn’t deny the fact that he was amazing with what he just drew. Such kind of art can only be drawn by the expert person and Lu Lijun was still too young.
“How can she answer you when she is stunned to see how well you drew this portrait of her. It’s exactly the way she is, these bright eyes, amusing smile, and these beautifully carved features.” Elder Lu said, looking at her.
When Lu Lijun decided to draw and thought what he should, he remembered the grandpa’s words of condition to win the bet. Though he didn’t want to win the bet, he wanted to do it to make his grandpa happy.
While thinking, he looked at grandpa and then his sight fell on Jiang Yuyan. Till now he understood, Jiang Yuyan was so precious to grandpa and whenever he saw her, it didn’t fail to bring a smile on his grandpa’s face so he decided to draw it. Moreover, the condition of grandpa was the drawing should be pretty so he thought, there was nothing prettier than Yuyan around them.
After deciding to draw her, he drew it according to his imagination. He didn’t look at her for reference. He just drew what image of her he had in his mind. He especially focussed on her bright eyes and her pretty smile. Her hair parted in the middle, tied in a neat bun on the backside of her head, a few strands left loose on either side of her face but he made them looked wavy instead of a straight one.
Jiang Yuyan was looking so pretty but somewhat different from her current appearance. “I think this is future Yuyan. She is pretty as well as she is looking like one mature woman. See the face.” Elder Lu said.
“I think so too grandpa,” Jiang Yuyan said.
“Who knows, in the future you will look like it, even prettier that no one could take their eyes off of you,” Lu Lijun said.
“You are so funny Li Lijun.” Jiang Yuyan didn’t think she was that much pretty but the people around her never stopped praising her like she was the only pretty woman in the whole world. She was fine with Lu Qiang calling her pretty because it was obvious as he loved her but when others did the same, she always felt awkward.
“No, I am serious. I imagined you like this,” Lu Lijun replied.
“You see me as an aged woman but I am still too young,” said Jiang Yuyan.
“I know but this is you in the future and I bet elder brother won’t let you go out as to protect you from the sights of other people,” Lu Lijun teased her and before she could ask him to stop, elder Lu spoke.
“Lu Lijun, let her be pretty but pray that no one lay their eyes on her or your elder brother will take those eyes out.”
Lu Lijun agreed and said, “Isn’t it obvious as elder brother loves her. I would have done the same if I was elder brother.”
“You are still too young to think about these things Li Lijun.” Jiang Yuyan interrupted him.
“I know, Yuyan. Anyways, I am not interested in these things,” Lu Lijun said having annoyed expressions on his face as he found the woman and these love stuff annoying.
“I hope you will get the best woman in the future and we all will be happy for you,” Jiang Yuyan said looking at the adorable little guy.
“Hmm! I will get everything best.”
When both were talking, elder Lu was thinking about whom to choose as a winner and said, “So now I have to decide a winner, right?”
Both looked grandpa and he spoke, “Well for me both of you are winners as both drew the people I love the most and dear to me. So I should grant both of your wishes.”
