Xu Han was an art student for two and a half years in high school. Although he was not enthusiastic about painting after entering university, he still painted quite a few pictures.

She also takes on freelance painting jobs to earn some extra money. Sometimes clients make rather demanding and unusual requests, but she still manages to create works that surprise and delight them.

But she was certain that she had never heard of such a bizarre request for a painting.

What kind of anime-style anthropomorphic panda head is this? Wearing a long robe and a straw hat is one thing, but what is this emoji thing?

Seeing the plethora of emojis that popped up on the screen after Qin Lang typed "Kim Jong-un" into the browser, Xu Han remained silent for a full minute before finally starting to write.

Animation style means simple composition and minimalist lines. Under such circumstances, whether it is a panda head, a long robe or a straw hat, it is not difficult to draw.

Normally, Xu Han could draw it easily.

The reason he remained silent for a full minute was not because he was figuring out how to start writing, but because he was genuinely speechless at Qin Lang's request.

Even when she's expressionless, you can still feel her emotions.

But Qin Lang didn't care. As long as she could draw well and meet his needs, he wouldn't have to worry about money in the short term. So what if he let her read all the novels in the room?

But when he watched Xu Han stop writing, his thoughts changed again. After pondering for two seconds, he said, "Tell me what novels you want to read in the future, and I'll buy them for you. If I can't buy them, I'll write them for you."

Xu Han: "...You're crazy."

After saying that, she put the graphics tablet on the computer desk, rolled over and went back to bed. She picked up a novel and was about to start reading when she added coldly, "Don't bother me again."

After saying this, she stared at Qin Lang warily for a few seconds. Seeing that he really didn't intend to bother her anymore, she then happily immersed herself in the world of the book.

Qin Lang really didn't want to bother her anymore.

Look at this newly painted artwork—simple and unadorned image, lifelike expression, and a look that makes you think it's silly at first glance.

If someone from ten years in the future were to travel here and see this, they would surely yell, "Holy crap, shrimp!"

After all, years later, silly animations swept the entire internet, and the protagonists of many of these works all had only one name. How could this not be considered another kind of universal recognition?

"Although Douyin hasn't officially launched yet, skilled users can still use it. Also, Ah B's charging function... is great. It'll be launched in January this year. We can raise some money then and make our own app. This thing can work!"

Qin Lang was making plans with great enthusiasm, and this excitement didn't subside even when he arrived at school the next day.

Especially when she saw Xu Han in the classroom, she couldn't help but smile.

After all, he now really admires Xu Han. She was the kind of girl he remembered as a spirited young woman, but she turned out to be a treasure. Although her painting skills were not technically impressive, the key was that they perfectly met Qin Lang's needs.

This prompted him to greet her: "Hey, good morning, Sister Novel."

It might be a bit silly, but that's more in line with the personality of young college students, isn't it?

However, the students around them were stunned when they heard the greeting. They looked at Xu Han and then at Qin Lang, their eyes filled with subtle expressions.

After all, they had almost forgotten how long it had been since they had heard Qin Lang speak. Then, out of the blue, he opened his mouth and cheerfully greeted someone, and the person he greeted was none other than the notoriously cold Xu Han…

The sun must have risen in the west today!

The only one who wasn't surprised was Xu Han. After all, Qin Lang's behavior yesterday had already baffled her enough, so she would remain unmoved no matter what Qin Lang did now.

At most, she would just give him a cold stare and then ignore him—just like she's doing now.

"Xiao Han, what's going on with Qin Lang?"

"Yeah, wasn't he always so withdrawn? Why is he suddenly greeting you? Are you two close?"

Two girls with dyed hair approached Xu Han. They were also art students, and the three of them formed their own little group.

As they spoke, they looked Qin Lang up and down with great interest, as if they were looking at something rare and precious.

Xu Han simply replied coldly, "Not familiar."

They seemed to have forgotten that the two of them had been intimately close in the same bed just yesterday.

Ah, woman, your name is ruthlessness.

Qin Lang leisurely found an empty seat and sat down. He didn't know if it was because he had been reborn, or because he had returned to the university campus he had been away from for so long... or perhaps it was also because of the youthful energy he felt when he woke up and on the way here.

In short, he felt quite excited and had a long-lost sense of novelty towards everything around him, but in order not to attract too much attention from those around him, he had no choice but to channel this excitement into his studies.

The first two classes were advanced mathematics... Hmm, I don't understand it. Let's start by memorizing the formulas.

He buried himself in his studies, trying to improve his grades before the final exams, or at least pass... as long as he didn't fail, that was all he asked for.

"What's wrong with Qin Lang? Has he finally gone mad?"

"I don't know. He was greeting Xu Han happily and studying hard. I'm starting to wonder if he's been through something again."

"Two negatives make a positive, right...? Speaking of which, he actually greeted Xu Han. Could it be that those two are secretly dating? Is his current situation actually due to the power of love?"

Whether it was the power of love or not, the students couldn't say for sure, but most of the time today they looked at Qin Lang as if he were a monster.

Even the counselor who had previously provided psychological counseling to Qin Lang came to him.

It was quite a pity that this balding fifty-year-old man, who was clearly not a talkative person, still found Qin Lang with a concerned expression during the break and asked him if something had happened to him recently.

Qin Lang's answer was clear and concise: "Learning makes me happy!"

At that moment, the counselor almost burst into tears, exclaiming that the prodigal son had returned!

Qin Lang continued studying in such an unbelievable state until noon. As a day student, he didn't even go home. Only after all his classmates had left and Xu Han returned did he preemptively reveal the password to his own security door before she could even speak.

Then I continued studying, this time focusing on English vocabulary for the CET-4 (College English Test Band 4).

This scene left Xu Han standing there in silence for a long time, until he arrived at Qin Lang's house and entered Qin Lang's bedroom, at which point he finally couldn't help but twitch his lips.

Because she saw a note on the computer desk.

Please draw another one for me. This time, the requirements are...

The character is still an animated emoji, so silly that Xu Han didn't even want to touch the drawing tablet.

After lying in bed and reading the novel for two minutes, he couldn't get into it. His eyes kept glancing at the note. Finally, he clicked his tongue, went over, turned on the computer, and picked up the graphics tablet.

Time flew by and it was already afternoon. There were only two classes left, and half an hour had already passed. Qin Lang was still studying his major course book, while Xu Han had already gone to his house.
