Chapter 1096 - 1096 1097 Unforgettable

Chapter 1096: Chapter 1097: Unforgettable Chapter 1096: Chapter 1097: Unforgettable Liu Guoying was stunned.

Was he to publicly admit that he was the one who copied the Autumn Scenery Painting?

“After all, it was just a copy…”

Chiang Xiao said, “Let someone else try, only you can replicate that Autumn Scenery Painting both domestically and internationally! And what about your Howling Northern Wind? And the Late Return on the Path? And another one, Morning Light of Spring? Any one of those paintings would cause a sensation in the art world! Teacher, you truly have talent. The times have changed, the chaotic years have passed and won’t return, so rest assured!”

“Yeah, Old Liu, you originally loved painting. Teaching math and such isn’t that fulfilling, so why not listen to Xiao Chiang and seize the chance to do what you love?” Cheng Qiulian also advised.

Seeing Liu Guoying wavering, Chiang Xiao pleaded with a pained expression, “Teacher, can you really bear to see me miss this opportunity?”

Liu Guoying gritted his teeth and decided to go for it.

“Alright! I’ll listen to you!”

Chiang Xiao immediately jumped up: “That’s great! Leave this matter to me!”

That night, Chiang Xiao sought out Wang Yi.

She explained the real situation on her side to Wang Yi.

She had thought she needed to properly explain and introduce Liu Guoying’s situation. However, upon hearing the words “Autumn Scenery Painting’s copier,” Wang Yi exclaimed in surprise and delight, “Autumn Scenery Painting? You don’t know, our Dean has been obsessed with that painting!”

“Really?”

“No doubt about it!” Wang Yi continued, “Many people have also asked us if the Capital Art Academy was holding that particular Autumn Scenery Painting. After all, the original is lost somewhere gathering dust, and the copy is also greatly missed by everyone. After hearing that the painting had been destroyed, everyone was deeply disappointed and upset. Our Dean even had people check the donor list from that year and asked around in that area to see if anyone there was a painter, trying to find this master.”

“Master?”

“Yes, you wouldn’t know, but in our Dean’s heart, that Anonymous was already a master-level Painter. It’s just unfortunate that they never found the person. Now it’s great! That person is actually your teacher? I was wondering why you were so skilled! Such a young age and already able to win first prize! It turns out your teacher is that mysterious master!”

Chiang Xiao genuinely didn’t know about this episode.

She had only heard of the Dean of the Capital Art Academy, seen his name, read about him and seen his photos; she truly didn’t know the person. With her previous credentials, she also had no chance to meet him.

“All set, I see this can work! I’ll go to the Dean’s house later! By the way, does your teacher still have the Autumn Scenery Painting? No, other works will do too!”

Chiang Xiao hadn’t initially thought of this, so she hadn’t brought the paintings with her. However, her paintings were in the Space. Liu Guoying had at that time copied an Autumn Scenery Painting for her, and two others were for her to practice on. Knowing she was coming to the exhibition, she subconsciously packed all the paintings into the Space, thinking they might be needed.

“I’ll go back and get them! Where does the Dean live? Should I deliver them directly there?”

“You don’t need to run that far. Take the paintings to Chen Yin, then have him bring the paintings and pick me up for a late-night snack.” Wang Yi said, revealing a somewhat coy smile.

Chiang Xiao despised his casual show-off behavior and immediately ran off.
