Chapter 690 Gentle Actions

When Alicia's tone suddenly turned cold, I could tell that I had touched a nerve. I looked at Shawn helplessly, seeking his assistance. He reached out and grabbed my arm, saying, "Let's discuss this in a calm manner."

Alicia softened her tone and apologized, "I'm sorry."

After exchanging a few words with Shawn, Alicia left. Once she was gone, I asked Shawn, "What did I do wrong just now?"

"Mother doesn't really like celebrities, especially those involved in modern pop culture. She plans to invite some famous traditional opera performers."

I pouted and said, "That doesn't conflict with my idea. She can invite whoever she wants, and I can invite whoever I want. Didn't you see her expression just now? It's like I did something wrong—"

I quickly stopped myself and asked, "Am I being too sensitive?"

Shawn reassured me, "She was just speaking her mind. She didn't mean to target you, so don't take it personally."

"But I am being quite petty. I'll keep this in mind."

Shawn comforted me, "You don't have to be so cautious."

That was my mother-in-law, after all. So I had to be more polite to her.

I nestled in his arms and asked, "What's your schedule for this afternoon?"

"I'll be practicing calligraphy and brush painting. Would you like to learn it?"

I was terrible at calligraphy.

"I can try painting."

Then, I praised him admirably, "You're good at everything."

"It's just a habit I developed since I was young."

Once he was done, he got up and went upstairs first. I took the cake into the kitchen and put it on a plate. Then, I poured two cups of coffee before going upstairs to the study.

Shawn had already prepared some cartridge paper, and he called me over to hold the pen and imitate a landscape painting on the wall. While doing so, he explained how to hold the pen, outline the painting, and add color. Then, he instructed me to start by drawing rocks, tree branches, mountains, and then rivers and figures. Perhaps I had some talent in this area, as the final result looked quite decent.

I complimented myself, saying, "It's really beautiful."

But Shawn commented, "It's a mess, but not bad for a beginner. Practice makes perfect. Try copying another painting on the wall."
