When Ryuji and Rita entered the art exhibition, there were artists or so-called high-class people, and Ryuji looked out of place.
Most of the paintings in the exhibition were abstract paintings, which people like Ryuji, who Da Vinci personally commented lacked artistic talent, could not appreciate.
"Sure enough, I still can't understand these paintings." Ryuji pursed his lips, in his opinion, these expensive paintings weren't as good as the original illustrations of his favorite light novels.
"Through this way." Rita grabbed Ryuji's arm and dragged him into a painting.
"What about this painting?"
Ryuji glanced at it, the entire painting was dominated by blue, seemed to depict the ocean, and had an extraordinary magical power to make people sink to the bottom of the sea just by looking at it.
However, Ryuji was an art idiot, and he couldn't find any other adjectives other than exclamation like not bad.
"Just that?" Rita looked a little irritated, "You only commented on Mashiro as 'not bad'?"
"If not?" Ryuji spread his hands "Not bad" because Mashiro is his little sister. Da Vinci never received such an evaluation.
"Mashiro's work is a treasure, and adjectives like 'not bad' are an insult to her!" Rita blushed, obviously she was rejected by Mashiro yesterday, but now she is so fiercely defending Mashiro, the feelings between the girls are really crazy.
"Rita, you actually really like Mashiro, right?" Ryuji asked strangely, labeling Rita as a suspicious yuri in his heart.
Rita was taken aback for a moment, and at the same time noticing the awkwardness just now, she took a deep breath to calm herself down.
"I hate Mashiro the most," said Rita in a low voice.
"Is that so." Ryuji did not ask further.
"Aren't you going to ask me why?" Rita looked at Ryuji in surprise.
"It's not hard to imagine, it's hard to have a world-class genius as a friend," Ryuji said softly.
Yes, if it weren't for this year's experience, suddenly there would be a talented painter cousin in his life. Apart from being happy, there must be jealousy and low self-esteem.
In front of geniuses, humans always looked small, because there was a huge gap called talent between them.
This is an abyss that time and sweat cannot fill, and in the end you can only look up from the other side of the ditch.
Ryuji is very fortunate, because he doesn't have to respect others now, even the world was saved by him, who else is qualified for him to respect?
"I have been learning to paint with Mashiro in grandpa's studio since I was 6 years old. There were many children at the same time, but they disappeared one by one, and they were all kicked out by Mashiro." Rita crouched down and turned her head buried in her crotch, starting to moan.
"Because Mashiro let them see true talent, talent they couldn't pursue no matter what, and they ended up covered in bruises, and they couldn't even pick up a brush."
Rita laughed self-deprecatingly, "Mashiro doesn't remember the names of the children, she just looks at the paintings, and doesn't care who goes. I can't be Mashiro, so I hope she can disappear, so I support her to become a manga artist!"
Geniuses always harm humans unconsciously.
"This is a really sad story," Ryuji said dispassionately.
Rita glared at him with bloodshot eyes, "You are a person who can't pay attention to women at all!"
"Because there is no need for attention, and you are not mine. Of course, if you cry, I don't mind giving you a tissue." Ryuji showed a polite smile.
Rita gritted her teeth, this guy really sucks!
"Do I need to help you?" Ryuji extended his hand to Rita.
Rita's face was red, her legs were numb from squatting too long.
"Thank You!" Rita repeated her words.
Common sense in life tells us not to stand up suddenly after squatting for a long time. Otherwise, the brain will be congested and will cause dizziness.
"Ah!" Rita felt dizzy, and she fell.
The expected pain did not come, and Rita fell into a warm embrace.
In the ear, a frivolous and annoying voice sounded, "No matter how much you like me, don't be too hasty, we have only known each other for a day."
"Who likes you!" Rita gritted her teeth and wanted to get up from Ryuji's embrace, but the dizziness was not over yet, instead it made her and Ryuji closer.
"What are you doing, Ryuji-kun?" This time it was Ryuji's turn to be surprised, and he only had one voice that didn't show any emotion.
"What a coincidence, Megumi." Ryuji turned his head, but Megumi wasn't the only one he saw.
"... Doesn't seem like a coincidence." Ryuji squeezed his brows with a headache, looks like he's being followed again!
