Rebirth of a Fashionista: This Life Is Soo Last Season

Chapter 116 - Clear Her Name

The storm brewing on the internet had little impact on Sheng Jiaoyang. On the contrary, this negative scandal led to fewer people asking her for her signature or to take pictures, and of course, there was also a lot of finger-pointing.

After her entire class stood forth to clear her name, she returned to the house in the Northern suburbs and began to decorate the interior.

At night, as soon as Shen Zhining entered the house, the beautiful melodious notes of a violin playing travelled to his ears.

The table was covered with a tablecloth, and the person who'd said that she would wait for him to come back for dinner was in the middle of sketching an ink drawing on the sofa.

Only when he stood next to her did she notice his presence.

"You're back!" Sheng Jiaoyang immediately corrected her posture and raised her head to smile at him.

Her face was clean and free of makeup. Meanwhile, her smiling eyes under her black-rimmed glasses made her appear exceptionally bright and lovely today.

At this moment, she resembled a soft and fluffy animal without any traces of aggression.

Shen Zhining inexplicably remembered the way she brushed her teeth with a rabbit ear headband...it really matched her well. He coughed lightly and asked, "Dinner's ready?"

"It's ready, but it might've gone cold by now. I'll go and have a look." Sheng Jiaoyang put the sketchbook down and walked to the dining table.

"It's gone cold. I'll heat them up in the microwave right away!"

Sheng Jiaoyang hurriedly brought the dishes to the kitchen.

Shen Zhining turned, and his gaze landed on the sketchbook on the coffee table. He sat down on the sofa and stared at it. Perhaps it was because the ambience in the room was comforting, but his expression also relaxed somewhat. After a while, he picked up the sketchbook and browsed through it.

All the sketches were drawn with a fineliner pen, and the whole sketchbook consisted of black and white drawings. However, the flexible and nimble use of techniques gave each drawing a different finish and feel. Some were wild, some were poetic, and others were vivid and lifelike.

There was a saying: To learn about someone, study his or her writing. One's style reflects one's character. Since she could draw images that could warm one's heart and delights one's eye, she wouldn't be a pessimistic person. When one's heart was obscured, they would see the world in a dark light. Whatever colour a piece of glass was, whatever the colour of light it reveals, only a pure and limpid crystal diamond could release multicoloured light.

"It's ready, come and eat!"

Shen Zhining put down the sketchbook, washed his hands, and went to the table. Upon seeing that half of the dishes on the table were what he liked to eat, he looked at her in surprise.

"Try it and see if you like it," Sheng Jiaoyang urged as she sat down opposite him.

Shen Zhining picked up the chopsticks and tried a dish. Under the other's expectant gaze, he nodded slightly to express his approval.

Sheng Jiaoyang's lips curled into a smile as she thought: That's great! Next time, I'll order food from the same restaurant again.

After dinner, she took the initiative to give Shen Zhining a head massage, and in passing, she told him about what had happened to her at school today.

She was now wholeheartedly trying to leave him with a good impression, and things like getting in Boss Shen's good books couldn't be achieved overnight. She had to do it step by step, such as first talking a bit about her matters and things happening in daily life. Then, she could finally ask him the things she wanted to ask.
