Chapter 99: Chapter 099 Makes Sense_1

“No! It’s a girl from the countryside, about my age.”

“Impossible, absolutely impossible.” Dai Jinhai said as he handed the sketch paper to Old Mi, resentfully saying, “Look, Mr. Mi, this painting is definitely Yu Jingyi’s work. I can’t believe the bastard sneaked onto our turf! Additionally, his skill level has clearly improved considerably, Humph!”

“Nonsense. That old man wishes he could improve, but it’s just a dream!” Old Mi glanced over the whole thing and was stunned. He immediately jumped up and cursed, “How did this old bastard achieve this?”

“I’m afraid he’s trying to provoke you on purpose.”

“Most likely! He may be hoping that I’ll get so irritated that my blood pressure will rise!” Old Mi said as he inspected the painting carefully. He and Yu Jingyi had known each other for decades, and he could recognize his style at a glance. There was no way he could get it wrong.

It’s unbelievable that this guy could improve his technique even at his deathbed.

Mi Yuezhen, who was being ignored, was not happy, “What are you talking about? The person who painted for me was clearly a girl. How could it possibly be an old man?”

“You’re not lying, are you?” Old Mi stared at his granddaughter seriously, “Girl, you can’t lie.”

Exasperated, Mi Yuezhen said, “Grandpa, this painting was done right in front of me in the park. It even cost me ten dollars!” She didn’t ask for the money, that was her own business. At least she paid!

“Ten dollars?” Old Mi asked with difficulty, “This painting…just ten dollars?”

“Yes! She even told me to keep it safe, saying it would be very valuable in the future.” But she didn’t believe it.

Old Mi took another look at the painting and nodded: “Hmm! Makes sense. I’ll keep this painting for you!”

“Whatever!” Mi Yuezhen found her grandfather a bit strange. She didn’t care about the painting in the first place, and went straight into the house.

Dai Jinhai reached out to pick up the painting, but was nimbly sidestepped by Old Mi, who asked defensively, “What are you doing?”

“Let’s see! I think even if it’s not by Yu Jingyi, it must be by his student.”

“Dream on! If his students were this skilled, wouldn’t he be over the moon?”

“You have a point.”

Regardless, whoever painted this work has completely sparked the interest of the two professors. With this level of skill, they won’t be able to sleep without figuring out the actual situation.

Not making a penny on the first day, Nan Fei inevitably felt a little despondent. She had painted continuously for a long time yesterday evening; because she felt so low, she didn’t even know what she had painted.

In the end, she dozed off haphazardly on the table!

In the morning, she was awakened by the loud knocking on the door.

“Nan Fei, are you there?” Chen Cuihua was standing at the door, shouting and muttering to herself: “Strange! Why hasn’t she left yet? Could she be sick? It’s already past ten.”

“Open up, if you don’t, I’m going to break down the door!”

“Coming! Don’t break the door.” Nan Fei stood up in a daze. After leaning on the table all night, her entire body felt uncomfortable. Her hands were so tired that they could not be lifted at all, as if they weighed a ton.

She rubbed her face. There was no time to clean up the pile of sketches on the floor before she was rattled by the knocking and hurried to the door.

If she was any later, Sister Chen would probably break down the door.

“What’s up?” With a pale face, Nan Fei opened the door, nearly colliding with Chen Cuihua who was about to break in.

“I heard from the girl downstairs that you hadn’t come out, and since I hadn’t seen you, I came up to check.” As Chen Cuihua spoke, she stepped towards the room and before taking a few steps, she noticed the floor covered with sketch papers with no place to step.

“Thank you, Sister Chen.”
