Chapter 251: Shui Yue: The Art of the Human Body?
"More artistic?"
Shui Yue asked doubtfully, "What's more artistic?"
"You can draw even better?"
Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, and her beautiful eyes, full of curiosity, darted around.
Su Han smiled and nodded vigorously, his eyes filled with certainty.
"Master, you must have confidence in your disciple!"
Su Han walked over to Shui Yue, took her hands in his, leaned in slightly, and looked at her with burning eyes.
"This painting method can definitely uncover a beauty in you that even you haven't noticed, perfectly showcasing your most exquisite charm!"
Upon hearing this, Shui Yue was a little moved.
After all, the painting Su Han had done before was already so stunning.
Then what would the painting created by the better, more artistic method he spoke of be like?
Shui Yue was incredibly curious.
But just as she was about to agree...
She realized something seemed off.
She saw Su Han's expression was full of anticipation, even carrying a hint of fervor.
And Shui Yue, who was already like an old married couple with Su Han, how could she not know when Su Han usually showed such an expression?
"When he wants to make me... embarrassed..."
Shui Yue thought this and, having originally intended to agree, quickly changed her mind.
She looked at Su Han warily, gently pulled her hand free from his, crossed her arms, took a small step back, and her eyes were filled with scrutiny.
"Don't make grand boasts to me first."
"Explain it clearly, what kind of painting method is it?"
"Do I need to cooperate with you, and if so, how?"
As she spoke, she narrowed her eyes slightly and stared intently at Su Han, as if trying to see through all the little schemes in Su Han's heart.
"Uh..."
Seeing that he couldn't trick Shui Yue into agreeing directly, Su Han couldn't help but reveal a trace of an awkward smile on his face.
"Uh... this... this?"
Shui Yue watched Su Han's hesitant manner and immediately knew he was indeed up to something bad.
She couldn't help but let out a soft reprimand.
"Just say it!"
Seeing this, Su Han said, "Since Master asks, then I'll be direct."
Su Han's finger was still gently hooked on a thread of Shui Yue's clothing, subtly pulling her clothes lower as he spoke.
"Master."
"This so-called art of the human body, of course, requires returning to the most primitive state of a person."
"In this way, the pure, natural beauty that is unadorned can be presented, so this painting method requires you, Master..."
Shui Yue looked at Su Han's actions and combined them with Su Han's previous expression, quickly realizing what he meant.
"Returning... to my most primitive state?"
She gave Su Han a look, her eyes filled with reproach and a hint of helplessness, and said exasperatedly, "Why don't you just say the state a person is in when they're born?"
"Su Han, your idea is truly..."
She shook her head gently, "I really don't know where you pick up these improper, crooked painting methods every day!"
"No!"
Seeing Shui Yue refuse, Su Han quickly stepped forward, hugged Shui Yue's arm, and began to plead persistently.
"Good Master, good wife, good lady, won't you agree to your husband?"
"Can you?"
"Just this once!"
"I promise to be proper, focus solely on the painting, and absolutely not engage in any improper behavior."
"Just consider it a sacrifice for art, this one time."
As he spoke, Su Han rubbed his head against Shui Yue's upper body, his eyes full of anticipation and pleading.
Shui Yue looked at Su Han and still shook her head resolutely, "No, absolutely not."
"What kind of propriety is this?"
"If word gets out, who knows what others will say."
Having said that, she turned around, her back to Su Han, adopting a posture that showed no room for negotiation.
Su Han wasn't discouraged; he circled around to stand before Shui Yue again and took Shui Yue's hand.
"Master, this is merely pursuing authenticity."
"In those barbaric lands, many painters use this method to explore the beauty of the human body. It truly is a proper painting technique, not at all like what you, Master, are thinking..."
"You, ah, are thinking wrongly!"
"Furthermore, besides you, Master, and me, there is no one else here, and no one will know."
"Once it's painted and viewed, we'll destroy the painting. How could it get out and cause gossip?"
"Okay, Master?"
Shui Yue looked at Su Han, her heart a little shaken.
She bit her lip, her gaze flickering between Su Han and the painting on the table that had already amazed her.
"That painting was indeed exceptionally well done, the brushstrokes were delicate, and it fully displayed my charm..."
"But Su Han said it was just a casual piece."
"Perhaps..."
"Just as Su Han said, is the painting method he proposed this time truly a unique artistic pursuit? Not as improper as I thought?"
The anticipation in Su Han's eyes made her heart soften a little.
Furthermore, there were indeed only the two of them here, and if it was destroyed after being painted and viewed, no one would truly know.
But Shui Yue was still a little hesitant; after all, in her understanding, this kind of thing was simply too audacious.
If she really agreed to Su Han, what if...
She didn't dare to think further.
But although Su Han was occasionally improper in his daily life, he had never done anything that truly angered her.
She looked at Su Han again and saw him looking at her pitifully and eagerly, which truly made Shui Yue feel unable to refuse.
Shui Yue sighed softly, her heart in a struggle between heaven and man for a moment.
"Su Han, are you really... just doing this for art?"
Shui Yue spoke hesitantly, her voice carrying a trace of uncertainty, and her eyes revealing a hint of yielding.
It seemed whether it was or wasn't wasn't important.
She just needed Su Han to give her a reason that would put her at ease, and her wavering scales would completely tip.
"Of course!"
Su Han patted his chest and guaranteed Shui Yue righteously.
"Absolutely for art!"
Su Han said it decisively. As for the truth?
It wasn't important.
Shui Yue didn't care about the truth either; after all, this was just a little seasoning between lovers.
Shui Yue understood.
Therefore, after receiving Su Han's affirmation, she slowly turned around, looked at Su Han, her cheeks slightly flushed.
"Then... then fine, just this once!"
"And you absolutely must remember what you said, destroy it after painting, or Shifu (Master) won't let you off!"
Seeing this, Su Han jumped up and heavily kissed Shui Yue on the cheek.
"Master, you're so good!"
Shui Yue, kissed by Su Han, had a hint of tenderness flash in her eyes and said reproachfully, "Don't get carried away!"
"If Shifu (Master) makes such a big sacrifice, and you end up not painting well, just see how Shifu (Master) will deal with you then."
As she spoke, she gently pushed Su Han.
"Impossible!"
Su Han smiled confidently; after all, he had studied painting for over ten years back then, and this kind of painting method was his specialty!
How could he not paint well? It's impossible!
Thinking this, Su Han quickly reorganized the tools needed for painting.
After getting ready, he walked over and supported Shui Yue.
"Master, please relax first, just like before, leave everything to me."
Shui Yue took a deep breath; although she was still shy inside, she still nodded, "Okay."
"Remember, paint Shifu (Master) a little more beautifully..."
