At this time, a QQ message popped up in Liu Qin's phone. He picked up the phone and saw that it was sent by Lu Li.

"Have you arrived home? Have you seen the gift?"

There is a smiley expression behind this sentence.

"I just arrived home and saw the gift. It was lifelike. Your skills are amazing!"

Liu Qin smiled and replied with a message.

Lu Li sent another message: "Do you... like pears?"

Well……

Seeing this sentence, Liu Qin's face turned red. Pear means Li. Doesn't it just like "Li" if you like pears?

This guy...what do you ask me to answer?

How could I have the nerve to say that?

Liu Qin's eyes rolled and she quickly replied: "I won't tell you!"

When Lu Li saw this news, he couldn't help laughing and immediately sent another message to Liu Qin: "The answer is wrong! You should say: I like pears the most!"

When Liu Qin saw this sentence, her face turned red again. Although I thought so in my heart,... I definitely didn't admit it.

"Hmph! I think beautifully!" Liu Qin's face was a little coquettish.

The two chatted back and forth for a while, and before they knew it, it was late at night. When Liu's mother shouted "Good girl, go to bed early", Liu Qin stuck out her tongue and had to say "Good night" to Lu Li.

...

During the following summer vacation, Lu Li and Liu Qin did not meet many times.

This kind of "underground love" cannot be open and honest. Most of the time, I spend chatting online.

Although Lu Li was dating Liu Qin, he did not delay his skills practice.

I don’t know if it’s because of the better mood, but Lu Li’s skill improvement speed is still very obvious.

By the end of July, Lu Li's "carving" and "sculpture" were both promoted to the "proficiency" level.

Calligraphy and painting have not been fully painted, and they are still at the level of proficiency. It may take some time to settle and accumulate to break through.

This is also normal.

Even if Lu left the plug-in, he had not had a year since his time studying art!

Most people have been studying art since elementary school and have been studying for more than ten years, but they still have not reached the "proficiency" level. Lu Li has the current improvement speed, which is already very scary.

Calligraphy, painting, carving, sculpture, and four skills have been promoted to proficiency, and Lu Li's skills have become more and more exquisite.

The Weibo updates every day are still uninterrupted.

Over the past period of time, Lu Li's popularity has gradually faded due to the "top scorer in college entrance examination", but his Weibo fans are still increasing day by day.

The videos released by Lu Li are all the production process of some works that they are satisfied with. There are calligraphy, painting, carving, and sculpture.

Since a fan named "Beautiful than Flowers" sold a bamboo pen holder from Lu Li, more and more people have bought handicrafts from Lu Li.

Wood carvings and bamboo carvings sell more, followed by calligraphy and paintings, clay sculptures... but no one buys them.

It’s not that Lu Li did it badly, but the clay sculptures made by Lu Li are vivid and their skills are very exquisite.

But... fans were not interested after seeing the videos of the production process and knew that these things were made of mud.

Lu Li didn't care. Now you will make a lot of money by buying my works. When I become a master of craftsmanship, all these works will increase in price.

After a month, Lu Li sold more than a dozen works in pieces.

As for the price of the work... Since a fan claimed that Lu Li was so "666", his work must also be "666". So the customary price has become 666.

He sold more than ten works in a month, and Lu Li has earned tens of thousands of dollars a month.

As an artist, the unit price of this work is a failure to the bottom of the sea. As a high school graduate who has not yet entered a university, this is very awesome.

At least my parents laughed from ear to ear when they learned that Lu Li’s work was sold for more than 10,000 yuan.

"My son is so amazing! Before he went to college, someone had already bought his works! When he became famous and married in the future, he would definitely be even more powerful!"

My mother started to show off again.

My father was much more subtle. When talking to his colleagues, he sighed and said, "I'm so tired and exhausted for a month, so I'm not as profitable as my son's random writing and painting!"

Lu Li's life has returned to daily life.

In addition to having an extra message and chat with Liu Qin every day, he is still practicing his skills step by step.

Occasionally, I went out to "sketch" and took the opportunity to make an appointment with Liu Qin. I visited the beautiful scenery of Bifeng Gorge in Yucheng, depicting beautiful pictures. I visited the green mountains and clear waters of Qingyi River, and wrote about my youth.

During this period, Liu Qin celebrated her 18th birthday in early August. Lu Li specially went to the white marble mine in the neighboring county, selected a piece of white marble material, and made a white marble carving for Liu Qin.

White marble pieces more than one foot tall are considered scraps in the mines, and you can get them back by buying a package of cigarettes.

It took Lu Li three days to make this white marble carving.

This stone sculpture restores the scene where Liu Qin stood by the lake on Shuimu Campus, reached out to pull a willow branch, turned her head and asked Lu Li, "Where are you going to go to college?"

The carvings are exquisite and delicate, with real and natural expressions and movements. Standing under the willow tree, Liu Qin stretched out her hand to pull the willow branches, turned her head to ask, even the expression on her face looked very delicate and real.

On Liu Qin's birthday, Lu Li made an appointment with Liu Qin.

"Happy birthday!"

Lu Li put the carved white marble carvings in a wooden box and handed them to Liu Qin.

"Thanks!"

Liu Qin took the gift and was very happy.

When he opened the box and saw the lifelike and exquisite statue in the box, Liu Qin exclaimed again: "Wow! So beautiful!"

"This is you! Are you praising yourself for being beautiful?"

Lu Li smiled, "Although this is a fact, it is a bit suspicious of boasting!"

"I obviously praise you for your superb skills."

Liu Qin's eyes were still on the statue and said to Lu Li: "Lu Li, it seems that I have never pulled willow branches by Shuimu's lake, right? Moreover, even if I have pulled willow branches, you have never been to Shuimu, right? How did you portray this scene?"

"Is it not possible to see it in my dream?"

The smile on Lu Li's face was a little weird.

"In the dream..."

Liu Qin's face turned red, and she didn't know what she thought of.

After pausing for a moment, Liu Qin put away the box, turned her head to look at Lu Li, with a little apology on her face: "Lu Li, I... am going back. My parents are going to celebrate my birthday with me!"

"I know."

Lu Li nodded with a smile, "I really look forward to one day I will enter the house openly and celebrate your birthday with your family."

"Think beautifully!"
