Chapter 70: Agreeing on the Subject of Punishment
```
Commander Lu didn't know that while he was briefly out, someone had already stolen his precious jewel from right under his nose.
Of course, when Lu Jingqiu returned home, she acted as if nothing had happened, holding Hua Hua and continuing with her work.
In fact, her mind was in complete chaos, filled with excitement, joy, and panic. To suddenly have a partner so quickly felt unreal and gave her the illusion of being in a dream.
She also knew that her upcoming task did not allow for distraction, so she forced herself to calm down within twenty minutes.
Thus, she worked through the afternoon with barely a thought for food or rest, producing only two completed pieces. She mainly painted with gouache, waiting for each layer to dry; a hairdryer would have been useful. She decided to ask her second cousin if he could find one for industrial use.
The coloring was the quick part; it was the composition that was more challenging.
