Toker is a very magical person. He seems cheerful and unconventional, but he is also attentive enough to understand Elizabeth's fear of the soon as they arrived at the destination, he shook his blue eyes fiercely in front of Ranran, as if to tell her that she didn't have to be afraid with him around.
Ranran waited for a while, but the red-eyed dwarf did not appear, so he must have left.
So now Blue Eyes is taking care of her alone.
Ran Ran: "Do you want to show me something?"
Toke's eyes widened at Ranran's intelligence. She didn't get any information, but she was able to communicate with him. This was completely different from his impression of Miss Elizabeth.
According to rumors among the servants in the castle, this young lady was even more taciturn than Count Armand. She never spoke a word on her own initiative and would only shed tears silently in the cold wind.
Tok didn't want to care about these differences. There was only one thing he wanted to do now - share!
Sharing everything he thought was beautiful and good with this poor lady might not save her, but at least it would prevent her from shedding so many tears.
Tears, like smiles, are precious things.
Tok picked up a painting in his own little attic. It was golden. The golden sunset painted by the brush connected with the golden wheat fields, forming a golden world.
Toker liked the work very much and he thought Miss Elizabeth would also like it very much.
Ah Fu once told him about the situation of this poor lady. It was not that she was completely blind, but the world in her eyes was covered with a blurry filter.
Therefore, colors are the most recognizable to her.
Toke held the painting in front of Ranran, letting the golden color impact her dim eyes.
"Is this a painting?" Ran Ran tried to identify it. "Is it the morning glow or the evening glow above? Is it a large wheat field below?"
The more Toke listened, the smile on his lips widened, and he did not hesitate to praise the girl, even though she could not hear him at all.
The whole world was so quiet as if there was no response. Tok's enthusiasm flowed into the ocean of pain around Elizabeth and disappeared without a trace.
But Ranran was different from Elizabeth, she didn't care about feedback, so she watched quietly for a while and then took the initiative to ask Toke questions.
“Did you draw this?”
The golden painting unexpectedly turned into beautiful blue eyes, those eyes were filled with joy, as if they had received the utmost recognition.
After his excitement, Tok stared carefully at Ranran's lifeless eyes.
"Miss Elizabeth, you are such an amazing person." He murmured in a low voice.
"Of all the people I chose to share, you are the only one who asked this question. Not only did others not ask this question, they even questioned it after I asked it myself."
"They said how could a servant who spent all day trimming branches draw such a picture?"
"They would rather suspect that I stole the work from some artist's house than believe that I painted it."
Ranran didn't hear a word Toke said, but she admired him sincerely.
"You must be facing something beautiful every day, so you have such a pair of beautiful eyes, and you choose to use them to discover more beauty."
Tok was stunned, he felt a shock.
Such sincere and genuine praise was the first time in his life that he had received praise that made him feel happy. It came from a person who was blind, deaf and had almost lost his perception of the world.
Ran Ran didn't get a response for a long time, "Can I see other works?"
Toke came back to his senses from the shock. Look, this beautiful lady even called his paintings "works" instead of calling them the play of an incompetent person like his father did. Toke immediately took out a few more paintings to show Ranran.
Fields covered with thick white snow, clear streams running through the woods, and rolling hills connected to the sky.
The scenery in Toque's paintings is not only realistic, but also full of vitality.
Ran Ran's eyes were filled with genuine admiration, "Do you like painting scenery?"
Toker scratched his head sheepishly. “I really want to paint people, but I don’t have a model. Nature is my best model.”
"But there are also characters..." Toke hesitated for a moment, then walked to the most hidden corner of the attic and lifted the thick canvas.
Unlike the previous landscape paintings which were small in size and economical in materials, this figure painting is not only huge in size but also uses a wide variety of materials and is colorful.
It's as if the painter wanted to use all the beautiful colors on the woman in the painting.
Tok looked at his treasure for a while, confusion showing on his face, then he picked up the painting and presented it to Ranran.
The painting was very large, and Ranran's vision was limited, so she couldn't read it all at once. Instead, she looked at it bit by bit, area by area, and finally pieced these small pieces of the picture together in her mind.
Tok cooperated by constantly turning the painting around.
Ran Ran finished looking at the whole painting and couldn't help but smile, "You like the person in the painting very much."
Her tone was so certain that Tok Teng blushed.
"Miss Alice... How could anyone not like such a beautiful person!"
Ran Ran: "You draw really well, thank you for sharing this with me..." She paused and began to test, "Are you a famous painter?"
Toke's expression suddenly became lost.
No, he was not. He was just a servant who pruned gardens for various distinguished masters. He was of a very low status among all servants. How could he be related to a noble painter?
Ranran didn't see the pair of beautiful blue eyes filled with joy, and knew that she had said something wrong, and couldn't help feeling a little surprised.
She thought that since Blue Eyes could move freely in the castle and possessed such painting skills, he must be a painter of high status. But he was not. She couldn't think of his identity for a moment.
The attic window was large and bright, with sunlight shining in wantonly. Unlike other rooms in the castle, this place was the exact opposite of dark and depressing, so after obtaining Ah Fu's consent, Tok chose this place as his room without hesitation.
Even though this place seems plain and simple compared to other rooms in the castle, it is alive, just like his paintings.
Unlike those dead jewels and cold gems, he couldn't like them even if they were set beautifully and gorgeously.
Toke was feeling confused and sad because of Ranran's words, but he saw what was happening under the castle through the window.
Butlers and maids lined up to welcome them. Alfred was standing humbly behind Count Armand. Several luxurious carriages were parked on the wide gravel road in the garden.
Toke opened his eyes wide. He would not mistake that carriage. It belonged to Count Mellis!
So the person sitting in the third car from the back must be Miss Alice!
Tok put aside all his confusion and bewilderment for a moment, and felt a sense of urgency, urgency and impatience.
Today's interaction with Miss Elizabeth shook his heart and he knew that he had undergone a change.
He needs to present this change to Miss Alice. This is what he must do! (End of this chapter)
