Chapter 578 Sideline Business
"nice shot!"
Buggs Club, a crisp sound came from the golf course.
The incident of the enamel being stolen is over.
In the afternoon, Luke made an appointment with Lilith to play golf together. To be precise, he found himself a golf coach who was fair-skinned, beautiful, and light-bodied.
Luke has never played golf before, and he doesn’t know much about the rules, let alone the skills. He only knows how to hit the ball into the hole.
Lilith watched the small white ball flying high and landing in a parabola, and touched Luke's shoulder, "Your swing posture is already very standard, but the muscles are a little tight. If you relax your body a little more, the hitting effect will be better." better."
The two of them walked towards the direction where the ball landed, chatting as they walked.
This is a par-3 hole. Luke hit the first shot very well and hit the hole near the hole in one stroke. However, it was his first time and his accuracy was a bit lacking. It took four more strokes before he scored.
…
Lilith was wearing a blue sports skirt and walked over with her long white legs exposed. She lightly clapped her hands and said with a smile, "It's already pretty good to fight like this for the first time.
how are you feeling? "
“It’s not bad, it’s a good sport to kill time.” In the past, Luke would have scorned this sport, thinking it was a sport only played by the elderly.
But now there are different opinions.
Luke would have considered the word "killing time" a derogatory term in the past, but now he has a different view.
Wandering time leisurely and leisurely is the top enjoyment in life.
Luke and Lilith stayed at the golf course throughout the afternoon. When they were tired from playing, they had afternoon tea on the golf course.
Luke’s golf skills have also improved a bit. Although he is still far from a master, he has already figured out the gameplay and skills of golf. The only thing left is to practice slowly.
In general, this exercise has three benefits. The first is that it can cultivate sentiment and soothe the mood.
The second one can exercise. Walking and swinging are both good exercises.
Third, you can chat and socialize and expand your personal connections.
Lilith was taken to be a sparring partner for a day. To express his gratitude, Luke treated her to French food in the evening.
After dinner, Luke took Lilith back to the villa where he lived to study couples yoga...
The next morning.
Luke woke up from his sleep and felt his cheeks were itchy. When he lowered his head, he saw Lilith lying next to him, her golden hair touching his cheeks.
Luke touched her smooth back with his hand. Lilith twisted her body, revealing a large area of snow-white skin. She slowly opened her big blue eyes and yawned lazily.
"what time is it?"
Luke picked up the phone and took a look at it, "It's almost ten o'clock, it's time to get up."
"I rested too late last night. I need to sleep for a while. Call me before lunch."
Luke stroked her long golden hair and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
“I can do either, you choose.”
“Do you have any plans for the afternoon?”
“Yes, I made an appointment for a beauty treatment at the spa. Do you want to go with me?”
“Forget about beauty treatments, but I just want to get a massage and relax.”
“I can recommend a masseuse to you. Her skills are great.”
Luke nodded. He didn’t have high requirements for massage techniques, as long as he wasn’t a male technician.
It’s not that he has any thoughts about female technicians, it’s just that he simply dislikes male technicians.
In the next few days, Luke stayed at the Baggs Club, sleeping until he woke up naturally every day. He had no special plans. If he wanted to go fishing, he would rent a yacht to go out to sea. If he wanted to relax, he would go on a golf date. If he wanted to have a massage, he would go to a spa and eat and drink. Having fun depends on your mood.
The good times passed so quickly that he could no longer remember how many days he had stayed in the club.
In the afternoon, Luke took a nap. After waking up, he took his drawing board to the beach to sketch.
He is good at criminal investigation sketches and has a very high level of painting.
In the past, painting was used to catch criminals, but now it is used to relax.
During this period, Luke has been living a slow-paced life. Occasionally he will find a beautiful place to sketch and stay for half a day.
He found that painting can make people feel peaceful, and that after the painting is completed, it can also give people a sense of accomplishment.
Luke only has a pencil in his hand, but he can draw the layers and three-dimensionality of the scenery. With just a few strokes, he outlines the rolling sea level, coconut trees, beaches, and yachts, which is vivid and poetic.
This is the club's private beach, with only a few guests sunbathing.
A woman with long brown hair saw Luke drawing and came over curiously. The woman was wearing a floral bikini and a gauze scarf around her waist. She was tall, with a curvy figure and a very attractive figure.
Luke noticed someone coming, turned his head and looked at the person, then looked away and continued painting.
The woman didn’t bother Luke either. She lay on the lounge chair next to her and basked in the sun while watching Luke paint.
Luke was not influenced by the woman and continued painting.
About half an hour later, Luke completed the sketch of the seaside landscape, put down the pencil in his hand, and admired his work.
“Papa…” The white woman next to her clapped her hands, “This landscape sketch is very beautiful. Are you a professional painter?”
“No, it’s just a personal hobby.” Luke looked at the white woman. She was very beautiful, about 27 or 27 years old, and had the temperament of a mature woman. “Do you also like painting?”
“Yes, I also learned to draw when I was a child, but my talent was average.
Many of my classmates were better at drawing than me. I was shocked and gave up.
It’s a pity when I think about it now. If I had continued to study painting at that time, I might have been able to hold a solo exhibition now.
Luke glanced at her and thought, he met a wealthy man again.
The woman seemed to be interested, and moved closer to Luke, carefully admiring the landscape sketch, "I like your painting very much. The only pity is that it lacks the embellishment of the characters and is a bit less lively.
Can you draw me a sketch of the seaside? "
Luke smiled, he had drawn quite a few sketches and portraits, and this was the first time he was invited to draw.
Seeing that Luke didn't answer, the woman continued, "I can pay you for your labor."
Luke shrugged, "It's very expensive to ask me to paint."
"How much?"
Luke said casually, "A painting of similar size costs $50,000 a piece."
“Aren’t you an amateur?”
“Just because it’s amateur, it’s expensive.”
The woman tilted her head slightly and said, "Deal, make me look more beautiful."
This time it was Luke's turn to be a little surprised. He paid an amateur $50,000 to paint. This girl wouldn't be interested in him.
Whatever her, I won’t suffer any loss anyway.
Luke really didn’t expect that his painting could sell for such a high price, and he was quite excited.
Although he is not short of the fifty thousand dollars now, the feeling is different.
“Ma’am, what’s your name?”
“My friends call me Penny.”
“Luke.”
“Nice to meet you Luke Painter, can we get started?”
Luke took down the landscape sketch and replaced it with a piece of paper. "What style of painting do you want?"
“The scene you just took was good. The sea, the beach, the coconut trees, and a beautiful woman would make it perfect.
What do you think of me standing next to a coconut tree? "
“As long as you can hold a position long enough.”
“How long does it take to maintain a posture?”
“Twenty minutes, I will draw your part first, and then draw the background behind it.”
Penny walked to the coconut tree and held it with her right hand, "Is this okay?"
“It’s better to be more natural.”
Penny changed her position and leaned directly against the coconut tree, feeling a little more lazy, "What about this?"
"very good."
Luke picked up his pencil and started drawing.
Although only one figure has been added to the painting, the structure of the entire painting needs to be adjusted, and the portrait of the figure is also relatively cumbersome.
Fortunately, Luke is best at drawing people. He finished the portrait in about ten minutes, and then started to draw the background behind it.
Another half an hour later, Luke completed the seaside painting with added figures.
Seeing Luke put down his pen, Penny also came over to admire the painting and praised, "This painting is great."
Luke put the painting in the album and handed it to Penny, "I hope you like it."
Penny took the picture folder and said, "Thank you, I will keep it well."
“Thank you also for giving me a new side job. This is the first time someone is willing to buy my paintings.
To express my gratitude, I would like to invite you to dinner. "
Penny smiled, "My pleasure."
The two exchanged contact information. Luke returned to his residence, put down his easel, washed briefly and rushed to the restaurant.
Luke, led by the waiter, found an empty seat and sat down, and began to look through the menu.
Not long after, Penny also came.
She was wearing a khaki long skirt and holding a blue clutch in her hand. She had an elegant temperament and gave Luke a familiar feeling.
Luke helped her pull out the seat, "Miss Petunia, you look beautiful tonight."
"Thanks."
Luke handed over the menu, "The steak in this restaurant is good, you can try it."
Penny followed suit and ordered a steak and a few lighter dishes.
At this moment, several young men and women walked into the restaurant talking and laughing, and Lilith was among them. After she saw Luke, she walked over with a smile, but halfway through, her smile gradually faded, "Luke K. Penny, why are you together?"
Penny raised her head and glanced at Lilith, "Isn't this my dear sister? I wanted to ask you to have dinner with me, but you made an appointment with a friend.
So, I agreed to Luke’s invitation. "
Lilith looked at Luke again, "Why did you invite her to dinner?"
Luke smiled and said, "This is quite interesting to talk about. Since we all know each other, you can sit down and eat together.
We chatted while eating. "
Lilith looked at the young men and women, "I made an appointment with my friends today, so I came over to say hello.
Eat first. "
Lilith leaned forward and whispered, "We'll talk later."
